Draw the sword and cure the fear of insufficient firepower

"Damn it! These little Japanese are too cowardly!"

"You're running away before the fight even starts?"

"Order the troops to prepare for battle and stop them at all costs!"

Li Yunlong stared, pulled out the gun from his waist and said.

"It should have been in the afternoon. They were frightened by Commander Lin's artillery fire. Just think about it, the Japanese were hit by artillery shells for no reason and they couldn't even find where we were. How could they not panic?!"

Ding Wei analyzed.

"Lao Zhao! You take the sniper team! Spread out and wait for an opportunity to snipe the Japanese commander!"

"Lao Kong! Lao Ding! The three of us will go to the positions of the three regiments on the front line. All regiments must listen to my signals!"

"Gunfire rang out over here! Three regiments opened fire at the same time!"

"Don't save ammunition. Win this battle. Everything from the battlefield to the spoils will belong to us!"

Li Yunlong said loudly.

Then everyone took their positions.

The artillery company is temporarily commanded by Wang Erhu, deputy battalion commander of the first division artillery battalion.

After all, only the soldiers in the artillery battalion can operate the six 107mm rocket launchers.

At this time, the artillery company concentrated all the artillery of the three regiments.

There are a total of 9 Type 12 infantry guns, 6 mortars, and 107 mm rocket launchers.

This configuration is not much worse than the artillery configuration of the 36th Division.

The Japanese 36th Division only has two artillery battalions.

There were a total of 5 Type 10 infantry guns, 26 Type mountain guns, mortars, and some grenade launchers.

In addition, as soon as gunshots are heard from their side, Division 1 will definitely provide support.

……

Liujiashan 1st Division position.

"Old Zhou, the frontline observation post just reported that the Japanese have all retreated towards Qucheng, and it is less than an hour away from Captain Li and his men."

Fang Zheng came back from inspecting the position and said to Zhou Weiguo.

"Run away? Hahaha! Great!"

"Don't be afraid of them running away! As long as they move and lose their cover, they will be lambs to be slaughtered!"

"When the time comes, our tanks will charge forward unstoppable!"

Zhou Weiguo laughed.

"Lao Fang, take the 1st Regiment, the Tank Company, the Machine Gun Battalion, and the 2nd Battalion of the 2nd Regiment and chase them!"

"I'll report to the commander first. The artillery will have to provide fire support when the time comes."

Zhou Weiguo thought about it and said to Fang Zheng.

"Hello, Weiguo, what's the situation at the front?"

Lin Tian picked up the phone and asked.

"Haha, Commander, the Japanese retreated to Qucheng, but they will soon rush into the position of Captain Li and his men. I also asked Lao Fang to lead the troops to pursue them!"

"We will send the enemy's coordinates to the artillery battalion later. We will have the artillery battalion bombard the enemy for a few rounds, and then we will coordinate with the infantry and tanks. We should be able to take down the enemy with one charge!"

Zhou Weiguo's confident and determined voice came from the phone.

"Okay! Weiguo, I trust you to do your job, just go ahead and do it!"

Lin Tian said.

Zhou Weiguo is now increasingly showing the demeanor of a great general.

Command the battles of the two regiments and advance and retreat in moderation.

Lin Tian is now free. He no longer goes to the battlefield in person, but makes plans in the command center.

"Haha, Lao Liu, Weiguo has grown up now. There will be no problem with our infantry combat."

"But our air force has not yet been built. The talents you found before should have arrived at Laowang Mountain."

"After this war, we can start to build our own air force, and the size of the existing force will also need to be expanded again."

Lin Tian no longer has to worry about the war and feels more relaxed than ever before.

In the past, I was so busy worrying about the battlefield situation that I never had time to think about the issue of troop construction.

Everything has to be handled by Liu Wu.

Although Liu Wu is very outstanding, he still has some limitations of the times.

Unlike Lin Feng, who comes from later generations, all kinds of advanced combat concepts and tactical coordination completely surpass this era.

Especially those MiG-15 jet fighters.

The Chinese army at this time was only equipped with some old propeller planes.

Jet aircraft, never seen one.

Lin Tian was also worried whether the people Liu Wu found would be capable of operating the MiG-15 fighter.

Lin Tian was not worried about the batch of B-29 Super Fortress heavy bombers.

At least it's a weapon that already exists in this era.

"That's right, Commander. All the personnel have arrived, including 25 pilots, 10 tank soldiers, and 5 patriotic intellectuals."

"Oh! By the way, there is another weapons expert named Xu Guoqiang, who studied in Germany and is full of Western food."

"It's just that the Central Army is not taken seriously. I told him that we have a batch of firearms that are ahead of their time and asked him to copy them. He came over happily."

Liu Wu took out a list, which contained the names of the people coming this time and their previous positions in the Central Army.

Lin Tian took it and looked at it carefully. Liu Wu was very meticulous in his work.

"Yeah! That's great! 25 pilots, hahahaha, the difficulty of building our air force will be greatly reduced!"

"Old Liu, I'm going to give you a great credit!"

"Especially this weapons expert. We can indeed copy a batch of weapons."

“We are rich now, but it is still very difficult for the hundreds of thousands of friendly troops.”

"As long as we can successfully copy it, just think about it, our hundreds of thousands of well-equipped Eighth Route Army can definitely drive the Japanese out!"

"Our weapons and equipment are no worse than the Japs'. The Japs are no match for us!"

Lin Tian's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he said excitedly.

I didn't expect Liu Wu to be so thoughtful.

"Haha, Commander, I just did it on impulse. This is what I should do."

"It is my honor to contribute to the war of resistance. It doesn't matter whether I have made any contribution or not."

Liu Wu said modestly.

After Lin Tian and Liu Wu finished the discussion, they continued to look at the map.

Chu Yunfei couldn't sleep at this time. Seeing that Lin Feng was still awake, he came to Lin Feng's side.

"Brother Yunfei arrived just in time. It's going to be a good show!"

"The Japanese 36th Division is now trapped in a jar and can't escape!"

"Look, we are less than 400 kilometers away from Rongcheng."

"If nothing unexpected happens, the battle here can be ended tomorrow, and we can reach the outskirts of Rongcheng in 5 days."

"We fought in northwest Shanxi this time and gained a lot!"

Lin Tian gestured on the map and explained his next plan to Chu Yunfei.

"What? End the battle in one day?"

"This is a division!"

"Brother Lin really has so many miracles!"

"Brother Lin, there are two Japanese brigades, a tank regiment, and more than 20,000 Shanxi-Suiyuan troops in Rongcheng."

"Brother Lin, don't underestimate the enemy."

Chu Yunfei sighed and then said.
