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

The Allied forces are stationed in Germany, or rather, it is the Eagles that are stationed here. They like to do this kind of thing.

The distribution of German weapons and equipment became one of the biggest pieces of cake.

As for what to do with post-war weapons and equipment, some of them can be converted to civilian use, such as cars and trucks, and they can be directly distributed.

For weapons such as tanks, you can consider converting them into tractors, tractors, etc.

Germany had good tank technology, and many tanks were retained and distributed to the Allied countries for use.

The Leopard's performance is still sufficient for the time being.

As for all kinds of artillery, anti-tank guns, anti-aircraft guns, etc., those that can be destroyed should be destroyed, and those that can be divided up should be divided up.

The Eagles naturally got the lion's share, but they also had too many weapons and equipment to count, including matching American artillery.

There is no need to use the second-hand weapons left by Dezi.

For 105mm howitzers, the US military has its own M2A1 series, so it is impossible to pick up second-hand artillery.

These weapons were sealed in a warehouse outside the city and had not been taken away for the time being.

Ding Wei rubbed his hands. What a coincidence! The 105mm howitzer that he had been dreaming of was a great thing. Its firepower was one level higher than that of the 75mm mountain gun.

The range and power are far greater than that of a small water pipe.

In addition, the performance of the German artillery is good and the quality is acceptable, so it is worth taking the risk.

The things are there, and those with virtue can take them. Ding Wei has the ability to take them all away. This is not stealing, it is taking.

Suddenly I realized that with a system warehouse in hand, I could make a lot of money as a porter even if I did nothing.

The transportation cost is extremely low. One person can take away tens of thousands of tons of goods at any time.

It was a dark and windy night. Ding Wei carefully left the city and groped his way in the darkness of a foreign country.

The less people knew about this matter, the better, and he didn't even tell his confidants.

There were only artillery pieces, but no shells. In addition, they were all heavy weapons, so ordinary people could not carry them away. The Eagle Sauce's care was relatively lax, allowing Ding Wei to easily find the warehouse area.

I climbed in through the window and it was pitch black inside.

I sniffed it gently and it smelled like motor oil.

I reached out and touched it, and it was smoother than a girl's skin.

A cool feeling came over me, this was the feeling of a 105mm howitzer.

Men, after all, still like cannons, planes, and tanks, and have a fascination with military equipment deep in their hearts.

Take it away. You’re welcome.

In the dark night, Ding Wei moved quickly and stored 105 480mm howitzers, 150 120mm howitzers, 88 60mm anti-aircraft guns, and 140 anti-tank guns in the warehouse.

There are actually 85 American artillery pieces. It's really like cutting a knife on the butt. It's really eye-opening.

Now that we are here, we can't favor one over the other. German equipment is good, and American equipment is also good. Let's pack them up and take them away.

He scanned his system warehouse, climbed out of the window, and returned to his residence quietly.

The next morning, we bought plane tickets and retreated towards the Soviet Union.

The investment was handed over, the factory continued to produce steel, and after obtaining 800 artillery pieces, they returned to the Northeast quickly.

By the end of 1945, the shadow of war had faded a little, and most parts of the country had entered a period of peace.

With the help of the Eagle Sauce, the Eighth Route Army and the National Army began to consider the plan of joint governance.

Zhou Weiguo couldn't understand it. He went to Europe and spent three million dollars. Wasn't this a complete waste?

With this money, it would be better to buy more weapons.

It would be fine to buy more tanks. A T34 doesn't cost much. Even if you buy double the amount, you can still get two armored divisions.

These days the U.S. dollar is pegged to gold, and its purchasing power is staggering. A medium tank is worth 2 to 5 U.S. dollars, and 300 million can buy more than medium tanks.

The Japanese Type 97 is only $1.2, which is even cheaper.

A Tiger tank, for example, costs more than two hundred thousand dollars each, so you can only buy a few.

There are some things Ding Wei cannot tell him, so he asks Zhou Weiguo to guard the Hailar defense line with peace of mind, stroll around the border more often, and build good "relationships" with the Far East Army.

Don't worry about the rest.

With nearly 60 troops and hundreds of thousands of rifles, its core combat power is still artillery.

A unit can only be considered an elite unit when its artillery ratio reaches a reasonable range.

A pure infantry division, not even qualified to fill the line.

In the past, artillery was mostly mountain artillery and small-caliber field artillery.

Whether it was the Japanese 75mm field gun or the Soviet 76mm field gun, they were all treated as treasures.

There were very few large-caliber howitzers, and at least 150 to 40 mm-class artillery pieces. After the Japanese surrendered, they got more than artillery pieces, and that was all.

The 122mm howitzer originated from the aid of the Soviet Union. Later, we obtained some of them through rewards and purchases, totaling 108 guns.

During this trip to Europe, more than 600 howitzers were brought out, including 560 105mm howitzers, which could form 10 artillery regiments to strengthen the firepower of the column.

The remaining 120 150mm howitzers, combined with the 84 Japanese howitzers and 34 Russian howitzers, can form five heavy artillery regiments.

There are more than 100 artillery pieces with a range of 900 mm and above.

Including the 120mm mortars, there are definitely more than 1000 of them.

The remaining 82/81mm mortars, 75mm mountain guns, 76mm field guns and self-propelled artillery were not included in Ding Wei's statistics. They were more numerous and were distributed among the various columns for use.

The next step is to coordinate the training of artillery and realize towing by tractor.

It is impossible to pull a howitzer by human or animal power; it is too heavy to be dragged.

We will use the military factories in Harbin to supply artillery shells. All the chemical, military, tank and oil refineries here will be put into operation, and we will strive to provide a continuous supply in the second half of next year.

Zhuzi was called to Harbin alone to report on the current situation of the artillery department.

Gunners in preparation and new recruits waiting for training.

The quality of artillery determines the effectiveness of fire support.

Having artillery is useless if you can't fire accurately.

Ding Wei not only has to hit accurately, but also has to hit hard.

If you are poor, you must be roundabout; if you are rich, you must cover everything precisely.

The overall quality of the artillery must be improved, and suitable artillery must be selected from the Northeast region.

It has to be admitted that the overall education level in Manchukuo was better than other places.

It turns out that the Northeast Army’s artillery was also the best in the country.

Vigorously recruit, reorganize and train artillery, 14 howitzer regiments, this is the weapon that determines the direction of the war.

Zhang Dabiao, Gao Qing, Wang Chao and others each received dozens of 75mm field guns.

The three of them secretly talked on the phone to find out what they knew about each other.

"Hey, Commander, you've made a fortune. Is the 75mm gun no longer a good thing?"

"No, I captured 18 American mountain cannons, and the commander told me to handle them myself."

Upon hearing this, Wang Chao quickly persuaded Zhang Dabiao, "Artillery must be a complete set. I have an American mountain artillery battalion. Give me the American artillery in your hands. When you have military merit in the future, I will remember your kindness."

Zhang Dabiao laughed and treated me like a three-year-old child.

"It's okay. My artillery doesn't mind the trouble. They can fire American, Soviet, and Japanese artillery."
