Start as a young leader, grow bigger and stronger, and create more glory

"Ding, exchange successful, congratulations to the host for obtaining military merit points!"

The Japanese's eight Meiji 8-type cannons weighed a total of 45 tons, which was equivalent to military merit points. The power of this cannon was indeed great, but its shortcomings were also obvious. It was very heavy and could not be disassembled, making it very troublesome to transport.

Theoretically, such a heavy artillery battalion is equipped with large tractors to facilitate transfer!

However, after the L118 howitzers of the infantry regiment's artillery battalion released cluster bombs, the dense fire of shells turned the enemy's heavy artillery positions into a sea of ​​fire.

The Japs had no ability to move at all. This was not something that could be done overnight. Even the tractor trucks were blown to pieces!

That was why, even though the heavy artillery was blown to pieces, the Japanese did not take away a single piece of scrap metal.

Because all the Japanese in the heavy artillery battalion were killed in the explosion, the soldiers of the Independent 2nd Regiment were also very careful and did not let go of any wreckage and collected them all.

As for the extra 2 military merit points, they were from the Japanese 75mm mountain cannons that were destroyed during the attack on Yan County. They were small in number and relatively backward in performance, but after this battle, the remains of these small-caliber artillery amounted to 20 tons!

Under the second fire coverage bombing of the infantry regiment, almost no complete heavy weapons were captured.

不过徐乐不在乎，部队已经有中口径的105毫米L118榴弹炮，和122毫米的54-1式榴弹炮。

Coupled with the 5800mm L81 mortar, which is light in weight, easy to carry, and has a range of 16 meters, the combination of these three guns can meet the firepower needs of the troops for a long time!

As for the captured Japanese light and heavy machine guns, there were quite a few of them, and some of them were in good condition and could be used directly after being loaded.

Xu Le did say that guns belong to whoever they seize and there is no need to hand them in.

But what he said was in vain, because no one kept the weapons. All of them were sent to the regiment headquarters, which finally sent people to the quartermaster department of the logistics department.

There is no other reason. Every soldier is equipped with an M16 rifle, which has fully automatic firepower, high accuracy, light weight, and is very convenient to carry. It is several levels stronger than the Japanese guns, so no one even takes it seriously.

Only a few soldiers left a few of the Japanese's 6.5-caliber bullets as souvenirs, which they could take out during casual conversations as evidence of their having killed the enemy.

Not only Xu Le was helpless, but the people in the logistics department were also helpless. The Quartermaster Department was not responsible for armaments and was only responsible for daily necessities.

However, the army was engaged in arms trade and placed all the junk weapons for sale in the quartermaster department, and the captured Japanese weapons were also placed there.

Now the Quartermaster Department has more than 6.5 guns of all kinds from the Japanese, and more than one million rounds of 7.7-caliber and -caliber bullets.

However, it was of no use at all. Not only did it take up space, but people from the Quartermaster Department had to come and check from time to time.

This caused people in the Quartermaster Department to complain.

A few days ago, the quartermaster general came up with an idea. The army was recruiting soldiers, and the new recruits were trained by company. Every time a company of new recruits was gathered, they would be transferred to the mountain village training camp in Pu County.

He asked people to fetch 200 Type 10 rifles, Type rifles, and two Type heavy machine guns, filled a full car, and sent it to the recruit training camp.

At the beginning, these new recruits who had never seen the world were very excited. They didn't expect that they would be assigned guns before they even started training.

But two days later, a truck from the training camp arrived at the Quartermaster Department, and it returned exactly the same weapons that had been sent there before!

Because Xu Le wanted to build a force that could quickly engage in actual combat, there was a welcome party before the recruits began training. One of the plots was to display the various weapons of the troops so that the recruits would have enough enthusiasm.

When the new recruits learned about the power of the M16 and MG42 machine guns, they began to spit on the Japanese guns.

The next morning, when the company commander of the recruit company in charge of training arrived at the training ground, he saw a pile of Japanese weapons piled up in the ground. With just a rough estimate, he knew that these were the weapons that the quartermaster department had sent earlier.

He didn't need to ask, because he was a platoon leader selected from the combat troops. Because of his military achievements, he would be officially promoted to company commander in a few days.

However, there were almost no vacancies for officers in the army, and he could not succeed in his original unit, so he was assigned to the recruit training camp to train the company. After the training was completed, he became the company commander of the company and was directly assigned to the new unit.

This will allow officers and soldiers to better integrate with each other and allow the company commander to thoroughly understand each of his soldiers.

There are many company commanders like him, but they are basically infantry company commanders. Special forces officers and recruits are trained at the Yan County base or Meidongshan headquarters, such as air defense troops, tank troops, and artillery troops!

Especially the scouts, who are the elite among the elites in the army. They have to undergo almost all kinds of military training. Not only must they be proficient in using various weapons, but they also have to learn to drive armored vehicles and tanks!

The company commander of the new recruits arranged a vehicle that day to transport the junk weapons back to the quartermaster department.

"System, exchange all vehicles for military merit points!"

This is the purpose of Xu Le's stay in Yan County, to clean up the battlefield garbage.

Although heavy artillery provides a lot of military merit points, it is not enough compared to vehicles. The Japanese have gathered tens of thousands of troops in Yan County before, and there must be a lot of vehicles used for transportation.

In addition to the vehicles responsible for the heavy artillery at the heavy artillery position in Shuitou Town, as well as the vehicles in the other towns, there are nearly a hundred trucks alone.

In addition, there are more than 10 armored vehicles and several light tanks.

"Ding, exchange successful, congratulations to the host for obtaining military merit points!"

As soon as the system finished speaking, all the various vehicles that were displayed in front of Xu Le disappeared!

Xu Le gave a barely perceptible smile!

The iron mine does provide a lot of military merit points, but that is accumulated slowly. But this is different. It is obtained through robbery. In just a short while, it is close to the monthly output of the Meidongshan Iron Mine.

[The previous chapter’s iron ore exchange was wrong. The iron ore was 1900 tons, and the metal ratio was set to 60%, so it should be exchanged for 114 million military merit points. It has been corrected! ]

"The tractor for the eight heavy guns is the Japanese Type 8 13-ton heavy gun tractor. This vehicle alone is worth 10 military merit points, which is enough to buy equipment for a tank company. If there were a thousand of them, it would take off!"

Abandoning this unrealistic fantasy, Xu Le returned to reality!

It’s not that the Japanese can’t afford to build 1000 Type 1000 tractors, but they can’t afford to build heavy artillery. How can a mere island country get so many resources?

As for other weapons, Xu Le exchanged them all at once. After all, the Mauser rifles sold by the system only cost one military merit point each, and one Type 1 rifle could be exchanged for several.

Moreover, even the new recruits are looked down upon, as keeping them would just take up space and be a waste of manpower to manage!

Before, he had carefully calculated the cost of each weapon, wondering whether it would be more cost-effective to keep it or to exchange it.

Now that we have huge amounts of money in hand, it doesn’t matter whether we make a little profit or a little loss; all we want is convenience.

The mission was accomplished. The affairs of the base were in the charge of the General Staff. Time was urgent as there would be a commendation meeting and so on. The next day, Xu Le rushed to the Majiazhai Iron Mine. This was the last place that needed to be exchanged, and after that the weapons of the troops would have to be upgraded again.
