Started as a security team, developed into a heavy armored synthesis division

"Captain, there are many soldiers who want to join the tank battalion. What should we do?"

At the tank training ground, Monkey spoke in frustration.

"What should we do? When we had the car class before, they didn't want to participate and didn't want to learn how to drive.

Now that we have tanks, they want to drive tanks?

Tell them that if they want to drive a tank, they need to go to the automobile class first. Only after they have passed the third subject in the automobile class can they learn to drive a tank.

Otherwise, no way! "

Hearing this, Monkey smiled happily and continued, “Captain, I didn’t notice it until it was dark last night.

Now I see that there is a huge difference between our two tanks, like an adult and a child. What kind of tanks are they?"

"Hehe, what tank?

This, a white Tiger, is a heavy tank, weighing 56 tons.

This little guy is called the Type 6.7 tank. You should know it from the name. Yes, this is the Japanese tank, and it weighs only tons.

We have to learn how to drive this Type 95, otherwise when we capture a Japanese tank, it will be embarrassing if we can't drive it back, right?"

"Yes, yes, yes, I have to learn. I want to drive both types of tanks."

Boom boom boom boom!

Tanks moved one after another on the training ground. At first, the speed was very slow, like a snail crawling.

However, after two days, the tanks' speed increased and they were able to move in formation.

There were three white Tiger tanks in the front, followed by six Type 95 light tanks, and two Tiger tanks on each wing. Behind each tank was a squad of infantry combat teams.

This is not to mention the coordinated formation, but having a formation is not enough, we also need combat effectiveness.

So the tanks started firing live ammunition, placing targets directly at a distance of 1000 meters.

In this way, the tank battalion began training day by day, and the training ground was filled with the sound of artillery fire every day.

The newly formed 5th Infantry Battalion also entered the training schedule.

However, the soldiers all came from the recruit training camp and their quality is good.

Therefore, after only a few days of training, Xiao Dingfang sent him out to suppress bandits. Before fighting with the Japanese, it was better to see some blood.

It can only be said that the bandits in Lujiang County are almost becoming copies of Xiao Dingfang.

And if nothing unexpected happens, bandit suppression will be a practical training subject for the new troops in the future.

As for the arsenal in Causeway Bay, just as the high temperature had ensured before, on the second day, the daily output of the bullet production line exceeded 1000, reaching 1500.

And in the following days, the output gradually increased.

By the seventh day, as the soldiers' proficiency improved, the production of bullets in the morning reached 5500, and at the end of the day, the production directly reached .

After all, there are two production lines, so the production capacity is still good.

It can be said that the problem of bullet consumption at the Moon Mountain Base has been solved.

"Gan Gao, you are all college students, do you have any classmates you know?

If so, you can contact them and ask them to come here." Xiao Dingfang asked in the arsenal.

Upon hearing this, Gao Wen, Wen Wen, Tang Song and others looked at each other, obviously a little excited, but also a little worried.

Gao Wen said, "Captain, we have classmates, but the situation is chaotic right now.

Both Anqing and Madang Fortress in the south had fallen, and the same was true for Hefei and Shucheng in the north.

"Captain, even if we can contact our classmates, they are willing to come, but the journey is long and they will be in danger if they encounter the devils."

Hearing this, Xiao Dingfang nodded secretly. This is the situation in Lujiang now. Except for the Dabie Mountains, the east, south and north are basically locked down.

However, he still wanted to win over these college students, so he said:

"It's okay. You can try to contact them. If anyone is willing to come to Causeway Bay, I, Xiao Dingfang, can send someone to pick them up and ensure their safety on the journey."

"Yes, Captain, we will try our best to contact them."

Little by little, all aspects of the Third Regiment were progressing in an orderly manner.

Wendy, the female reporter from Central News Agency who came to Xiao Dingfang to ask for the team flag, finally returned to Wuhan after a long journey.

Although I didn't get the squadron flag, I got the photo, so I've accomplished my mission.

So the next day, a month after the Inoki Regiment had been wiped out, a photo of their regiment flag appeared in the newspapers again.

Why do you say again?

Because Sakai had exchanged the regiment flag back, the Japanese also published photos to prove that the Inoki Regiment was not annihilated and that the regiment flag was not captured.

Now, this different photo has come out again.

Hefei, Office of Prince Tokugawa Ieyasu.

“Inaba-kun, being able to take back the regiment flag this time undoubtedly saves the face of my imperial warriors and the face of my royal family.

Of course, what is more crucial is that it revealed the true face of the Longguo government in deceiving the people, which greatly reduced the government's credibility.

This is extremely beneficial for our battle in Wuhan."

Higashikuni Miyatoshi spoke, and Inaba Shiro sighed and responded:

"Your Highness, you are too kind. Because of our poor arrangements, nearly 3000 warriors of my empire were killed..."

"Hey, Daoye-kun, don't worry about it. The warriors of our empire died for the holy war. This is their honor. There will be a steady stream of warriors coming later."

"Hey!"

"By the way, I heard that Sakai-kun was killed in action?"

Hearing this, Inaba Shiro immediately looked unhappy: "Your Highness, on July 7th of this month, Sakai-kun was assassinated in Shucheng.

The murderer was extremely vicious, and he dared to rush into Sakai's residence to assassinate him. He was extremely fierce. "

Upon hearing this, Dongjiuni Gong Minoru did not react much. He thought that it was just the death of a major general, and it was no big deal.

He then said, "Inaba-kun, do you know that Ningji Okamura's 11th Army is making rapid progress along the Yangtze River?

They have already captured the Madang fortress and are about to attack the so-called important town of Jiujiang by the National Government.

Inaba-kun, you belong to the 11th Army, aren't you tempted?"

Upon hearing this, Shiro Inaba immediately stood up and stood at attention.

“Your Highness, my Sixth Division was supposed to open up the Anhe Highway last month and join the battle along the Yangtze River.

However, due to the obstruction of Xiao Dingfang's troops at Tiger Mountain, my division is still staying in the north. Please forgive me, Your Highness."

"Hey, I don't mean to blame you, after all, that guy Okamura Neiji is your direct superior.

I mean, how are your preparations for the attack on Tiger Mountain going? Do you need any help from me?"

Hearing this, Inaba Shiro smiled.

“Your Highness, I have mobilized three field regiments, an artillery regiment, and a tank regiment consisting of 24 tanks to Shucheng.

In addition, in order to take Tiger Mountain as soon as possible and open up the Anhe Highway, I hope that His Royal Highness can give me some air force support."

Inaba Shiro bowed his head and spoke respectfully, and after thinking for a while, Tokuni Palace Minoru also spoke:

"Yoshi, I can see Inaba Shiro-kun's determination.

How about this? In the name of the commander of the Second Army, I order a flight squadron of my Second Army to participate in the battle. I hope you can destroy Xiao Dingfang's ace troops at Tiger Mountain."

"Hey, Aligado Kekaima is dead, and His Royal Highness the Prince's military fortune is prosperous."
