Bright Sword: Start with Ding Blast Bridge, Homemade Sweet Potato Cake

Ding Wei was obsessed with the Soviet heavy machine gun. The Gulyunov heavy machine gun was considered a pretty good weapon.

I especially like its wheels and the shield in front of the machine gun, which can sometimes save the life of a heavy machine gunner.

As the war continued, water-cooled heavy machine guns were inconvenient to operate and were gradually replaced by air-cooled machine guns, which solved the problem of barrel overheating by quickly replacing the barrel.

The economical heavy machine gun formation can carry more ammunition and facilitate fire support.

After all, water is not available everywhere. In the severe cold weather in the north, water-cooled heavy machine guns are inconvenient, unlike in the south where water can be obtained everywhere.

As long as we have the first batch and fight some blocking battles, we will be able to slowly get rewards.

After Arnov left, Zhou Weiguo ran over in high spirits and approached Ding Wei to report the situation of the tank.

"Commander, you've made a fortune."

"I checked and found that these six tanks are relatively well preserved. Repairing the tracks will not hinder their charge into battle."

"The armor strength of these T34s crushes the Japanese tanks."

Ding Wei sighed. Tanks are good things. What he was dissatisfied with was Anov's behavior of reducing fuel supply. The Far Eastern Army obviously had concerns about Ding Wei's Suirecha Military Region.

The supply of combat fuel must be used to limit Ding Wei's combat capability.

They want an obedient younger brother, not to cultivate an uncontrollable ally.

To put it bluntly, the other side did not regard the Eighth Route Army as an ally, but rather as an obedient little brother.

If you are told to go east, you have to go east. If you are told to go west, you have to go west.

The appearance of Ding Wei's cavalry column, tank brigade and flying brigade made the Far Eastern Army aware of the crisis. The Mengjiang region is a vast desert, which is very suitable for the deployment of mechanized troops.

The Sui-Re-Cha Military Region could penetrate the core of the Kwantung Army or directly penetrate the Far East railway line of the Far East Army.

The threats were mutual.

Ding Wei has no shortage of tanks and planes. There are hundreds of them in the warehouse. What he lacks is the logistical supplies that can actually be used to supply combat.

Without oil, can the tank not fly?

After the tank brigade was successfully organized, it was never put into actual combat. The front-line troops were only able to advance with a small number of armored vehicles. They had the ability to deploy more tanks, but they were running low on fuel.

The Japanese want to find oil in Southeast Asia, so where can Ding Wei find it?

Even if we find it, we don't have the ability to mine it.

Without industrial capacity, even the best cook cannot cook without rice.

Even if we increase the production of oil in northern Shaanxi, the output is limited. The cost of transporting it is too high and it is not enough to supply Ding Wei's consumption.

At this stage, we still have to flatter Big Brother Mao.

Whether Ding Wei is willing or not, he has to temporarily rely on the combat fuel supported by the Far East Army.

Regardless of all that, the T34 tank needed experienced armored personnel, especially the T34/76 tank, which had poor man-machine efficiency and small space inside the vehicle.

However, the Russians were tall and strong enough to fit in, and our bodies were relatively flexible, so we adapted relatively smoothly.

Zhou Weiguo personally went in and felt the charm of the medium tank.

This is a proper medium tank, with thick armor and good firepower. The Japanese Type 97 medium tank, if placed in Europe, is probably not even as good as a light tank.

Comparing people with others is worthy of comparison, but comparing goods with others should be discarded.

Driving a T34, Zhou Weiguo even boasted: "I want to defeat ten Type 97 tanks."

The Guoliunov heavy machine gun was temporarily placed in the hands of the mechanized combat brigade, and this unit remained in Wucheng for training.

The cooperation between the tank brigade and the mechanized combat brigade is Ding Wei's trump card.

It cannot be used easily and ordinary people cannot afford it.

At present, the Kwantung Army is unable to move forward, so it should use three columns to clamp down from the front and arrange more guerrillas to flow into the enemy's rear to open up new bases.

Even liberating the countryside and towns would be enough to spread dots of revolution in the Northeast.

Kong Yong's Second Detachment obtained the latest information, discovered the location of Suizhou Airport, and reported on the speed of repair of the Liugu River Bridge.

There's nothing much to say, just change your posture and bomb again.

The Third Front had no air force and only relied on the anti-aircraft guns it had, so the threat was limited.

Lin Yihu's bombing squadron can try a new round of bombing.

Bombing alone is not enough, we also need to take back the oil from the Japanese Sui-Zhong Training Corps.

The Japanese set up an educational flight regiment here and arranged training for novice pilots, but they did not have combat capabilities.

We can just launch an air bombing, a special forces advance, and an advance team conduct a sweep.

The target was the training aircraft at Suizhou Airport and the reserved training fuel.

The other thing is to destroy the bridge that has just been repaired and provide another wave of equipment to the Suirecha Military Region.

Ding Wei has already liked the aerial bombing combat method, where he would advance quickly, bomb and leave. Any river would become an experience zone for him to gain equipment.

The key is that the Japanese also cooperated and repaired it after the bombing.

After the repair is completed, continue to blast.

This time, Kong Yong's advance regiment was put into battle to meet the Japanese army and completely disrupt the situation in Suizhou.

There is nothing new about sniping every day. The Japanese have long developed the skills to dodge.

Use mountain artillery, 82mm mortars, and 120mm heavy mortars to push in and destroy the Japanese's prestige.

The planes roared, covering the ground troops as they advanced.

The combat effectiveness of the Security Brigade is really not satisfactory. Even the Kwantung Army has limited training level and insufficient combat capability.

The most important problem is the lack of weapons and equipment.

Lack of anti-aircraft and anti-armor weapons.

After the first wave of artillery fire came in, the flying squadron quickly locked onto the training aircraft at Suizhou Airport. The Japanese pilots had no combat capability at all.

The trainer plane has no weapons or equipment. Even if it flies into the sky, will it attack by head-on ramming?

Explosions continued, and fighter planes circled and roared, wreaking havoc over the Japanese invaders.

As soon as the anti-aircraft gun opened fire, it was faced with bombing from aerial bombs. Li Eryong was skilled and brave. He braved the enemy's guns and got close to the bombing range, aiming his machine gun downwards.

There was a burst of gunfire, and the people on the ground were thrown to the ground.

"Be careful, don't blow up the oil barrel for me."

Lin Yihu issued an order, saying that what the flying squadron lacked most was not pilots or planes, but damn liquid gold.

The advance group's offensive was fierce, heading straight for the airport, with no intention of attacking Suizhong County.

Their combat goal was to break through the Japanese's outer defense line and seize the airport's reserve fuel.

Attack the county town?

Not interested at the moment.

Another wave of bombers aimed at the Liugu River Bridge and bombed the bridge deck.

The bridge does not have to be blown down. As long as the rails are destroyed and a section of the bridge deck is broken, it will be enough to give the Japanese a headache.

[Bombed the Liugu River Highway Bridge and obtained 28 Guoliunov heavy machine guns! ]

[Bombed the Liugu River Highway Bridge and obtained 36 Guoliunov heavy machine guns! ]

[Blow up the Liugu River Bridge, obtain 60 Japanese fighter planes, 40 fighter planes, 15 bombers, and 5 transport planes. ]

The war was progressing smoothly. The Japanese regiment thought that the focus of the Eighth Route Army's attack was the county town, so they retreated to the urban area of ​​Suizhou County.

The real target of the advance team was the airport outside the city. After quickly transferring fuel, they retreated into the mountains.

The Japanese colonel looked confused, as he had not suffered any losses.
