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

The combat effectiveness of the Far Eastern Army was that of a second-rate force. After the main armored division withdrew, they became a garrison force.

There is a gap between them and the regular field troops, and they are also overwhelmed when encountering guerrilla warfare.

Even without a mass base, the dense primeval jungle and vast ice fields are excellent places for guerrilla warfare.

The logistics routes were tight, and in order to supply millions of Far Eastern troops, the railway lines were almost running out of steam.

They only get the things that are discarded by the front-line troops, and many of them are antiques from the First World War.

When a large number of semi-automatic rifles appeared in northern Manchuria, the Far Eastern Army was completely confused. What was going on? Even the common people were using semi-automatic rifles.

They were still using water-jet rifles and bolt action rifles. Occasionally, you could see the shadow of semi-automatic rifles, but the overall equipment level was very poor.

The patrol soldiers on duty were the first to notice the difference. The people patrolling in the northern Manchuria region were carrying what looked like AK-47s. Upon closer inspection, they were indeed automatic rifles.

Cursing under his breath, who was it that smuggled the weapons and equipment out?

Then I felt something different. There were some differences in the logo and color, and there were many targeted adjustments in the subtle details.

The bayonet was replaced with a military dart, and the ammunition was also adjusted to be more suitable for the physique of Oriental people, reduce recoil, and ensure the accuracy of single shots.

The patrol was numb and reported the border situation as soon as he returned to the camp.

The North Manchuria Military Region has updated the equipment of its soldiers, and it is fully equipped.

A group of guys who were holding broken rifles two or three years ago now dare to hold automatic rifles?

Is there any more heavenly justice?

When in doubt, turn to Anov.

Lieutenant General Anov is considered a bridge of communication between the two military regions. His First Mechanized Army is stationed in the western part of Hailar and has a lot of exchanges with Zhou Weiguo's troops.

After the relationship between the two sides eased, the conflict on the border only remained at Ding Wei's secret funding of guerrilla forces.

After all, the Japanese prisoners were forcibly taken over by the Far Eastern Army, which wanted to use them as free labor, but ended up using them too much.

The train enters from the border, then arrives in Harbin and then transfers to Fengtian.

The end of the war in Manchuria gave Arnov a refreshing feeling.

The streets were cleaned and the houses were renovated.

The workers shouted slogans and were full of energy.

Harbin's military industrial capacity is rapidly improving. Tank factories, automobile factories, fighter aircraft factories, shipping companies, etc. are expanding in scale and production lines are being built one after another.

Once technology breaks through the threshold, there will be a period of explosive growth. The massive experience accumulated by predecessors is enough to revitalize Manchuria's industry.

A hodgepodge may not look that good, but it may not taste bad.

The result of you eating steak is the same as my eating stew, both of them are just to fill the stomach.

When the two met, Arnold was still cordial.

Especially when you see the dance hall in Fengtian, it has a strong Soviet style. Many people like dancing and enjoy the advanced and free wind.

"My old friend, it's been a while since we last met. Manchuria has changed a lot."

“What an amazing place.”

Ding Wei laughed. As long as there were people, everything would be fine. It was normal that the Far East had only a few million people at most, and it was not as large as Manchuria, which had a population of tens of millions or even hundreds of millions.

Population represents labor force and productivity. The education, medical care and transportation here are the strongest in the country.

The Japanese didn't do all bad things, they also left some good things behind.

Ding Wei invited Arnov to sit down and asked about the situation of the Far Eastern Army, whether the logistics were good, and whether they needed help. We are all brothers, so just speak up if you have any difficulties.

Speak?

That is something that cannot be expressed in words.

The Far Eastern Army, which had a million-strong army, was tortured by a bunch of rats.

The mountainous area became a forbidden area, and major traffic routes were blocked one after another. However, the Japanese could not be killed or starved to death, and their willpower was very strong.

"Arnold, you have seen our current capabilities. Cooperation is mutually beneficial. We can definitely undertake some OEM production, such as firearms."

"As long as you provide the raw materials, the production capacity of our military factory will be enough to provide automatic rifles to your Far East Army."

"Semi-automatic rifles are from the past era and are no longer relevant today."

"Don't you just want to be a lieutenant general? A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier."

Ding Wei's words were like the devil fighting in his heart. The Far Eastern Army made great contributions in the August Storm, but when rewards were finally given according to merit, most of the rewards were taken away by the main force.

The title of national hero was taken away by outsiders. The original commanders of the First and Second Front Armies did not receive any honorary titles.

Even Far Eastern generals like Anov seemed to be inferior to others, and the rewards they received were far less than those of the front-line troops.

Why can the Far Eastern Army only use leftovers, obsolete weapons and equipment, outdated tanks and artillery?

"I will think about it!"

The Far East is rich in mineral resources but sparsely populated.

The industrial base here is also poor, and all materials need to be supplied by railways.

Ding Wei's words were very tempting. The saved transportation costs could be used to arm the troops.

As long as the weapons and equipment are upgraded, will it be a problem to deal with the Japanese guerrillas?

As long as their weapons and equipment are upgraded, the second-line troops can also be considered first-line troops.

Opportunities are actively sought.

Only when you are strong can you have the right to speak. If the Far East wants to have the right to speak, it must strengthen its strength, strengthen its weapons, and increase its resource investment.

A wave of brainwashing made Arnold dizzy.

This point hit the nail on the head. Who would like to stay in a remote place every day?

He also wanted to transfer back to Eastern Europe to dance, eat cheese, and find bourgeois girls.

Instead of staying in the Far East, not seeing anyone for half a year, and the only women he saw were Russian aunts with waists thicker than his.

Ding Wei himself does want to continue to ease relations with the Russian bear, influenced by the situation and the Yatar system.

There will inevitably be disputes between major forces.

When the Russian bear treats his brothers, he can use real money to help you. The advantage is that he can really teach you step by step, but the disadvantage is that he really treats you as his little brother and wants to interfere in your eating and drinking.

Ding Wei's goal was to get aid in the form of real money and not to fulfill his obligations as a younger brother.

Anov is an entry point. If he can be promoted to a higher level, he can become the commander of the front.

The two people have more say and are tied to the same chariot. They can control the situation in several states in the Far East without fighting.

This time, Arnold received a significantly better reception.

After dinner, the two went into the room to have a private conversation.

Ding Wei needed to demonstrate some strength appropriately, and it just so happened that Arnold had just experienced the superiority brought by class privileges.

The privileges he enjoyed as a lieutenant general, the assumption of the commander of the front, and the power of speech of the admiral made Anov's ambition blossom instantly.

Who wants to be an army commander for life? Who doesn't want to move forward?

The opportunity is right in front of us. If we cooperate, both sides will benefit, including Ding Wei and Arnold.

He came with great fun and left with great fun. On the way back, Arnold walked with a breeze.

Submit an application to the Far East Army Command to order a batch of military equipment from North Manchuria.
