Draw the sword and cure the fear of insufficient firepower

Chu Yunfei put his hands behind his back, looked at Lin Tiandao, and then took the lead to walk out.

Soon they arrived outside the meeting room.

At this time, all the main cadres of the first division were present in the conference room and were chatting enthusiastically.

"Cough cough!"

Lin Tian pushed open the door of the conference room and coughed twice.

The conference room suddenly fell silent, and everyone looked at Lin Tian.

Lin Tian walked into the conference room with his hands behind his back and sat at the top seat. Chu Yunfei followed and sat next to Lin Tian.

Zhou Weiguo found a seat in the back and sat down. After all, Chu Yunfei was a guest, and everyone had no objection to him sitting next to the commander.

Since you have just arrived, you should still be respectful.

"Let's get started. Liu Wu, please report the current situation of Division 1 and the army reorganization report. Read it to everyone."

Lin Tian looked at Liu Wu and said.

"Yes, Commander!"

"Commander, we now have a total of 4853 people in Division 4600. Excluding the logistics personnel, the remaining combat personnel total people."

Liu Wu reported while holding a list.

"The result of our discussion is to form two infantry regiments, each with three infantry battalions, totaling 1500 people."

"Each battalion will be equipped with a machine gun company and an artillery company."

"The machine gun company is equipped with 15 Maxim heavy machine guns, 15 Type 40 heavy machine guns, 30 Czech light machine guns, 42 Type 10 light machine guns, and GM general-purpose machine guns."

“每个炮连装备107火箭炮2门，90毫米迫击炮30门，9二式步兵炮10门，掷弹筒20门。”

"Then we plan to configure the squad firepower like this."

"Each squad is equipped with two 2mm mortars, three Czech light machine guns, three PPSh submachine guns, and each person is equipped with a Type 90 semi-automatic rifle and 3 melon grenades."

"Commander, do you think this infantry regiment can be deployed in this way?"

"If possible, the commander of the two infantry regiments will have to make the final decision."

After Liu Wu finished reading the configuration of the infantry regiment, he looked at Lin Tian and asked.

"Sure, Lao Liu, I have confidence in your ability. If you modify these two infantry regiments as you do, they will be very combat-effective."

"The firepower of this team is enough to suppress an entire squadron of Japanese soldiers."

Lin Tian nodded with satisfaction.

According to the powerful firepower Liu Wu is currently planning, if it is applied on the battlefield, only one infantry regiment will be enough to easily defeat a Japanese infantry regiment! You know, normally, defeating a Japanese regiment often requires several times more troops than the enemy and suffers great casualties, but now it is completely different.

Even if the enemy sends an entire brigade to attack, we have enough strength to fight against it, and Lin Tian is confident that he can fight against an entire brigade of the Japanese.

Of course, in comparison, we are not without weaknesses - the biggest problem is that we have too few people.

After all, wars are fought by people, and this is exactly what we are most lacking at the moment.

You should know that a standard infantry regiment of the Japanese devils consists of 3800 people.

Including a 54-person command center.

A transport team of 121 people (carts, mules and horses).

An 81-man ammunition platoon.

Three infantry battalions, each with about 1000 men.

还有一个122人的炮兵中队，装备4门九二式步兵炮，4-6门94式90毫米迫击炮，然后8门掷弹筒。

And one of our infantry regiments has 20 Type infantry guns.

The total number of Type 94 90mm mortars equipped by the artillery company and squads reached an astonishing 111, which was truly terrifying.

As for the grenade launcher, it can be ignored. It only has a range of a few hundred meters.

Wang Chengzhu's artillery battalion had long eliminated the grenade launchers, but placing them in the infantry regiment could still appropriately enhance the firepower output.

In this comparison, in terms of artillery output alone, the Japanese infantry regiment is nothing but trash in front of Lin Tian’s infantry regiment.

You can totally eat it in one bite!

Not to mention the configuration of light and heavy machine guns, it was a direct crushing defeat.

These machine guns of the Japanese devils are now like chicken ribs in the eyes of the soldiers in the First Division - they are tasteless when chewed, but it would be a pity to throw them away!

However, if this statement were to be spread, he would probably be severely beaten by friendly forces, right?

After all, such a statement is considered to be too much in the eyes of friendly forces!

For friendly forces, every captured Japanese Type 99 light machine gun was as precious as a treasure; some even wanted to hold it in their arms as they fell asleep every night!

Not to mention the Type 92 heavy machine gun, it must be taken care of as carefully as your own wife!

There is nothing we can do, we are too poor... If someone comes out at this moment and declares that these machine guns are rubbish, how will our friendly forces feel?

I'm afraid they just want to yell in their hearts: "I'm a f**k you..."

These obsolete weapons can be packed up and sent to the headquarters after a while. I'm sure President Lao will be very happy.

Lin Tian thought for a moment and he already had candidates in mind for the positions of the two infantry regiment commanders.

"Okay, the reorganization of the infantry regiment is very good, let's follow Lao Liu's plan."

"As for the regiment commander, I have decided to appoint Fang Zheng as the commander of the First Infantry Regiment."

Lin Tian looked at Fang Zheng and said.

"Whoosh!"

Applause broke out; Fang Zheng's appointment was within everyone's expectations.

"Thank you for your appreciation, Commander. I will do my best!"

Fang Zheng stood up, saluted towards Lin Tian, ​​and said solemnly.

The applause gradually died down and the scene became silent, with everyone's eyes focused on the appointment of the commander of the 2nd Infantry Regiment who was about to be announced.

At this point, there was no suspense about who would be the commander of the First Infantry Regiment—Fang Zheng had previously served as the commander of an infantry battalion, and everyone knew that. However, as for the remaining position of the commander of the Second Infantry Regiment, everyone was full of questions.

Indeed, it was hard to guess who the commander would appoint to take on this important task. After all, other cadres had already taken their positions and were responsible for important responsibilities.

For example, Wang Chengzhu - Artillery Battalion.

Zhang Laoer——Cavalry Company.

Zhao Dahai——Machine Gun Battalion.

……

As for Liu Wu, he was the second in command of the entire Division 1, and was extremely busy all day, dealing with various complicated matters. The commander would obviously not arrange for him to serve as the head of the regiment again.

On the one hand, Liu Wu's identity did not match this position; on the other hand, he really had no time to take care of it.

At present, Liu Wu is almost entirely responsible for the daily work of the first division. From strategic planning to the daily chores of the soldiers, everything is something he needs to worry about.

How could what everyone is thinking escape Lin Tian’s eyes?
