Bright Sword: Follow Kong's fun and build the strongest military industry

In fact, the Sichuan Army Corps had a mortar before leaving Sichuan, but over the years, their regiment had fought countless dangerous and fierce battles with the Japanese, and the only mortar had long been destroyed by the enemy's superior artillery.

Since then, the Sichuan Army Corps has never been equipped with mortars again, and could only rely on the flesh and blood of the soldiers to fight against the Japanese planes and artillery.

Now there are three more mortars, and it seems that there are quite a few shells. The strength of the Sichuan Army is enough to be improved by several levels.

When Gousheng arrived, he saw the box containing the mortar on the ground. He jumped over as if he had seen his new wife, and stroked the thick barrel with his hand, grinning foolishly.

"Gousheng, can you use this cannon?"

"Commander, don't worry. As long as it's a mortar, there's nothing I can't do."

"This should be the Japanese Type 90 mm light mortar. It has good power and is relatively light. It is most suitable for our Sichuan Army."

"Well, now I declare that the Sichuan Army Artillery Company is established today. Gousheng, I appoint you as the commander of the artillery company. You can choose any of the others. Tomorrow morning, I want to see that the artillery company can form combat effectiveness."

"As you command, Commander. Just watch."

After saying this, he took off the old rifle on his back and threw it aside, then asked the other people around to carry the cannon away.

Ever since the Sichuan Army's only mortar was destroyed, this artillery master switched to infantry, fighting all day long with an old mortar on his back.

Although there were five or six enemies who died at the hands of his gun, shooting with a rifle was not as satisfying as bombarding with artillery.

After a while, Chief of Staff He came directly to report that according to statistics, there were a total of 900 artillery shells.

This result immediately aroused cheers from all the surrounding soldiers, who had been badly bullied by the Japanese artillery fire.

Now, with three mortars and 900 artillery shells, if the Japanese launch a sudden attack as usual, we can use artillery shells to teach them a lesson.

Having artillery support behind you and not having artillery support behind you are two completely different things.

For example, when the Japanese launched a squad-level attack, just three or five artillery shells would disrupt the enemy's offensive rhythm and relieve the pressure on their own brothers on the position.

Moreover, if there is a mortar, it can effectively attack the Japanese's annoying grenade launchers and the very threatening Type 92 heavy machine gun.

It can be described this way: with the artillery company, the Sichuan Army's combat effectiveness can be increased by 30%, while the Japanese's strength can be offset by 20%.

With this increase and decrease, the balance of victory has already tipped towards us.

Just as we finished looking at the good stuff here, we heard another shout from the last truck:

"Captain, Chief of Staff, come over and take a look. There are some good things here."

When Captain Long rushed over, the things had already been carried down. They were packed in sacks.

After untying it, a little soldier took a little with his dirty little hands and put it into his mouth. When his tongue tasted the flavor, he immediately exclaimed loudly:

"Captain, it's sweet. This is white sugar."

When everyone heard that it was white sugar, they grabbed a small bit and put it in their mouths to taste it. When they tasted the sweetness, happy smiles appeared on everyone's face.

After counting, they found that there were 200 kilograms of sugar in the car. Although Captain Long was a little surprised, how could such a small convoy of the enemy have so much sugar.

However, faced with such good things, everyone in the Sichuan Army said that it didn’t matter, the more good things like this the better.

Then, Chief of Staff He issued an urgent order:

"Quickly get ten kilograms of sugar and have the kitchen staff boil it into thick sugar water and give it to the wounded."

This white sugar is a good thing, especially during a war. As long as you drink a bowl of white sugar water, your chances of survival will be much greater.

When the troops are fighting, as long as they drink a bowl of sugar water, any fatigue will be swept away. As long as they rest for a while, they will become full of energy again.

At this time, Captain Wu discovered that there was a strange box on the truck. He immediately climbed up and took it down. After opening it, he found that it was full of medicines.

Captain Wu saw the Japanese words on the medicine and frowned and said:

"It's all in Japanese language, we don't understand it, and we don't know what it's used for."

At this time, Kong Hao stood up and said with a smile:

"Captain Long, I know some ghost language, let me take a look."

In fact, these were all exchanged by him from the system, but in order to conceal their tracks, they were all packaged in the Japanese medicine packaging.

"These should be sulfa tablets, a total of 2,000 tablets. The other jar contains sulfa powder, which is used to treat wound inflammation."

"By the way, we have two doctors in our team, as well as a lot of surgical instruments. Together with these medicines, they can be used to treat the wounded on the battlefield."

After hearing this, Captain Long was overjoyed and couldn't wait to say:

"That's great. All our wounded are in the infirmary. Captain Kong, get your men there quickly. Time is life."

Next, everyone got busy with their own things, and around six o'clock in the afternoon, all the supplies were cleared away.

"Captain, our group has made a fortune this time."

"The supplies on these dozen trucks include 10,000 Japanese melon grenades, about 130,000 rounds of Type 38 rifle bullets, 4,000 rounds of special grenades for the Japanese grenade launchers, and a lot of rice and flour. They are all what we urgently need."

"Oh, now that we have enough ammunition, let's give the Japanese a hard time tonight. We will send out an infantry company, each with five grenades, and throw them all into the positions occupied by the Japanese to consume their energy."

"Now that our ammunition is so abundant, our fighting style should also be changed appropriately. In the past, we refused to give up an inch of land, but now we can let some of the Japanese invaders in. This will reduce the lethality of their artillery."

"As long as we hold the main position and use grenades and grenade launchers to bombard the enemy from a high position, we can cause great damage to the enemy."

After hearing this, Chief of Staff He also thought this was a good idea. In the past, due to a shortage of guns and bullets, they could only choose close combat and night combat to offset the disadvantage in weapons.

Now all the soldiers in the Sichuan Army are well fed and have sufficient ammunition. As long as the Japanese dare to attack, they will be shot if they are far away, and will be attacked directly with melon grenades if they are close.

They now have more than 700 grenades and grenade launcher shells in their hands. There are only about Japanese soldiers left on the opposite side. Even if they are all killed, they cannot attack our positions.

In fact, the combat effectiveness of each Chinese unit was not bad. After all, they had fought for so many years, and the elite veterans who survived were all very capable. It was just that their weapons and equipment were too poor and ammunition was extremely scarce, so they were never able to defeat the Japanese.

Take the hand grenade, the most commonly used heavy weapon of the Chinese army, for example. All troops have never had an abundance of them, otherwise the battle situation would not have become what it is today, with repeated retreats and defeats.
