Draw the sword and cure the fear of insufficient firepower

The military flag fluttered in the wind and the soldiers were in high spirits.

The main commanders and fighters of each unit stood on both sides of Zhou Weiguo, standing straight.

"Comrades! Let's not waste time talking nonsense. Time is precious! The sooner we complete our training, the sooner we can become combat-ready!"

"The commander could have led us to kill the devils one day earlier!"

"The commander said that he wants to see our new look when he returns! Division One will soon make a big move!"

"I declare! The training of new recruits in Division One has officially begun!"

"Commanders and fighters of each unit will lead their respective troops to the designated areas for training!"

“Disband!!!”

Zhou Weiguo waved his hand and said, there are more than 8,000 people here. The commander has entrusted these comrades to him for training, which shows his trust in him. He cannot lose face.

The commander will be away at the headquarters for at least half a month this time. When the commander comes back, he will have to train the troops well.

"Yes!"

Following Zhou Weiguo's order, the officers and soldiers on both sides immediately turned around to face Zhou Weiguo and saluted.

Then they ran to the front of their own troops and took the soldiers to their respective training areas.

There are more types of troops this time, unlike before when everyone was training on the same field.

It’s different now. Everyone is crowded on the training ground and it’s obviously too crowded.

So Zhou Weiguo and Liu Wu discussed and decided to expand the original training ground.

Then, on the right side of Laowang Mountain, a small hill was flattened and a large open space was opened up to serve as an artillery training ground.

There is no way around it. Artillery can fire from a long distance and has great power. If it is too close to the infantry training ground, it will not only be unsafe, but also disrupt the normal training of the infantry.

Everyone likes to fire artillery, but the division of labor is different. The infantry also likes to fire artillery.

It would be bad if the infantrymen did not train properly and just watched the artillery fire.

Fortunately, Division 1 has no shortage of explosives, and with the military expert Feng Li, configuring high-intensity explosives has become a very simple matter.

As for blasting mountains, Wu Xiuwen, a mining expert, is very familiar with it.

No one can surpass him in knowing how to achieve the most ideal and safest effect with the least amount of explosives.

Once the matter was decided, action was taken immediately, and in less than two days, the artillery training ground was opened.

This plan also gave Liu Wu inspiration.

It was too slow to reclaim the farmland on the back mountain by relying on the soldiers and villagers to dig the land one shovel at a time.

Now that the number of people in the first division has increased so much, food is the first big problem. More than 8,000 people are just the combat troops.

If you count all the people in the entire district, there would be tens of thousands of them.

That’s more than 3 mouths to feed. Three meals a day, that has to be multiplied by …

As the second-in-command of a division, Liu Wu was in charge of all the logistics of the entire base. As the saying goes, one who does not manage household expenses does not know how expensive firewood and rice are. Only Liu Wu could understand the feeling firsthand. It was really stressful.

But Liu Wu did not complain about it. Instead, he worked wholeheartedly for the development of the district.

Liu Wu believed that it was an honor for him to be able to devote himself to such an army.

Who doesn't want to drive the Japanese out of China as soon as possible? Who doesn't want the Chinese army to be extremely powerful, so powerful that foreign enemies dare not covet it?

Moreover, his life was saved by Lin Tian, ​​who entrusted him with an important task. As the saying goes, a gentleman will die for his friend.

If Liu Wu were to be cunning and cunning and just live a life of mediocrity, he would be letting down Lin Tian and the 400 million Chinese people.

So Liu Wu thought, since explosives can be used to open up a training ground, can't they also be used to open up wasteland?

Then the artillery's shooting targets were set on the wasteland in the back mountain, and the shells were used to plow the land directly. After the explosion of the explosives, some elements would be left behind, which could be used as fertilizer for the crops. This was really killing two birds with one stone.

Moreover, there are a lot of livestock in the base, and their excrement reaches thousands of kilograms every day. These things are also treasures.

Liu Wu specially invited fellow villagers from the base to help with the composting.

This will be a really good fertilizer in the future.

China is currently unable to produce chemical fertilizers, but this old method still works. With fertilizer in the fields, yields will increase.

They eat the harvested grain themselves and use the rest as feed.

The grain is used to recruit soldiers and the feed is used to raise livestock. If it continues to develop in this way, the district will prosper and there will be no worries about food and drink.

Therefore, Wang Chengzhu and Han Guang's training method these days was to first teach the soldiers how to fire artillery, and then pull out all the artillery equipment of the artillery and let them fire freely.

Lin Tian had told them long ago that they should not be afraid of wasting ammunition during training, as Division 1 had plenty of ammunition.

As long as the troops can be trained well, it is worth it no matter how much ammunition is consumed.

Since the arsenal had not yet been built, Feng Li, a military expert, had nothing to do, so he stayed in a house mixing explosives. After they were ready, he took them to the back mountain to blast the mountain.

In the past few days, earth-shaking explosions can be heard from Laowang Mountain from time to time.

Even some of the soldiers' kangs collapsed due to the explosion, and they had no choice but to squeeze into other dormitories. Some unlucky soldiers were so shocked that their kangs collapsed in the middle of the night and had to sleep directly on a pile of dirt lumps. Fortunately, it is almost summer and the temperature has risen, so there is no need to heat the kangs in the dormitories. If it were winter, they would have to sleep directly in the fire pit at night, which made everyone laugh and cry.

The training of Division 1 was proceeding in an orderly manner. Thanks to the enhancement effect of Lin Tian's "big training buff", the effect of everyone's training was very significant.

After less than two days of training, the recruits had mastered most of the movements and learned a lot of tactics.

The recruits who had never touched a gun before were now loading, chambering, aiming and firing in the training ground in one go. Their movements were very standard and their performance was quite good.

Many people are exclaiming that they are gifted and that God is really feeding them.

Over on the machine gun regiment's side, the soldiers were also making rapid progress. They had almost mastered continuous firing, burst firing, and fire suppression.

With enough live ammunition for training, the progress is indeed extraordinary.

On the armored regiment side, Zhao Qulu, Zheng Hao and Sun Zhen each led a battalion and trained with great vigor.

Everyone has learned basic vehicle driving skills, and some of the more skilled ones can even drift in tanks.

If Lin Tian were here, he would probably be shocked. He took the second part of the test five times. Even the coach had a headache when he saw him.

Not to mention the artillery regiment, which has three experienced old artillerymen, Wang Chengzhu, Wang Erhu and Han Guang, to train them. Their ears are almost deafened from just leading the artillery regiment to fire artillery all day long.

Hard work pays off. The soldiers of the artillery regiment fired well and their hit rate was rising steadily.

Wang Chengzhu and the other two exclaimed that it was as if they were helped by God. They had been artillerymen for so many years, but they had never seen any artillerymen who could be deployed to fight a battle in just a few days.

All of this stems from Lin Tian’s incredible buff.
