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

Kong Jie couldn't help but sigh when he saw the people coming and going:

"I know this kind of honeycomb briquettes. The New Second Regiment was also allocated some stoves and honeycomb briquettes. After trying them out, they can indeed solve a lot of problems for the army's logistics."

"At least we don't have to look for firewood everywhere. We can just light the stove. Although it is more troublesome to transport it during the march, we can find a way to overcome it."

"This kind of honeycomb briquettes are very popular among the people. People in many places are rushing to buy them. Those who have a little spare money will sell a year's supply and keep it at home, just in case this good thing suddenly disappears."

"I didn't expect it to be produced this way. It's very simple. Just now, one person made more than a dozen. Isn't this just like picking up money?"

Kong Jie is now in charge of such a large organization as the New Second Regiment. The political commissar has just been transferred here and is unfamiliar with many things. He has to worry about everything and is also very familiar with the life of the troops.

"Captain Kong, the Independent Regiment is the mother's home of our special forces. It was you who recruited me into the Independent Regiment. We are all family, so don't be polite to me."

"I specially prepared a gift for the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment. Each regiment has ten molds for making honeycomb coal. In addition, I will send two people to you as technical instructors to teach the soldiers how to make honeycomb coal. This will also allow the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment to have some extra income."

"As for the formula of honeycomb briquettes, it must be kept strictly confidential. Our technicians will pass it on to the person you designate. You must pay attention to this."

"According to the headquarters' plan, these things will be distributed in the future, and sooner or later it will be the turn of the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment. I just moved up the time."

Having said that, Kong Jie was still very grateful. Everyone wanted such a good thing. If it weren't for Kong Hao, it would probably take a long time for their two groups to get it.

After explaining all this, Kong Jie went back. The new Second Regiment had just been formed, and there were still a lot of things waiting for him to deal with. This time he returned with a full load.

When he returned to the regiment headquarters, he found the political commissar and the regiment staff walking out of the village to greet them. When they saw that Kong Jie had brought back a large amount of supplies, everyone in the New Second Regiment became extremely excited.

The political commissar of the new second regiment is named Guo. He was transferred from other troops and was also the regiment’s political commissar before.

Originally, he thought that the New Second Regiment was a newly formed unit with only a few thousand people, a few hundred old rifles, five or six light machine guns, and if they were lucky, they could even get a heavy machine gun.

This is a true portrayal of most of the newly formed basic regiments. Some are even worse than this and are directly upgraded from county brigades to main forces.

The strength of Political Commissar Guo's previous troops was quite good. They had more than 1,500 people and more than 700 rifles of various types, including old-style rifles, Hanyang-made rifles, and a small number of Type 38 rifles and Ma Sihuan rifles. There were also about ten light machine guns, four Czech-style and six Type 99 rifles, and even two Maxim heavy machine guns and one Type 92 heavy machine gun. It could be said that the troops were strong and powerful.

Originally, he was transferred to the newly formed unit and was very depressed. However, when he arrived at the new Second Regiment and truly understood the strength of the unit, he was completely shocked.

Although the new Second Regiment has not been established for a full month, its weapons and equipment are extremely luxurious.

The entire regiment currently has more than 2,100 people, and the regiment has more than 1,200 rifles, and there are only two types of rifles, one is the Japanese's Type 38 rifle, and the other is the Ma Sihuan rifle.

As for the miscellaneous rifles commonly used by other troops, they have been cleared out from the New Second Regiment, which can be regarded as the unification of ammunition.

There were at least thirty light machine guns, fifteen heavy machine guns, and even an artillery company with two Type 92 infantry guns and six mortars. It was simply out of this world.

After understanding all of this, Political Commissar Guo finally understood the difference between ordinary troops and ace elite troops. The two are simply not on the same level.

At the same time, the commander of the New Second Regiment, Kong Jie, was also a very good person to get along with, which allowed Political Commissar Guo to get into work mode in a very short time. Unlike other troops, it took a long time to deal with interpersonal relationships.

Especially the relationship with the regiment commander. If it is not handled well and the two people do not get along, it will affect the overall combat effectiveness of the troops.

"Captain, I didn't expect that you could obtain so many supplies with just this one move. It's really impressive."

Kong Jie first asked the guard to take the two technicians downstairs to rest, and then instructed the logistics personnel of the New Second Regiment to count and store the things they brought back.

Then, the two came to the conference room, and Kong Jie took out the list of supplies and handed it to Political Commissar Guo.

"Political Commissar, with these weapons, we can definitely expand our army and expand the New Second Regiment to about 3,000 people. I have a feeling that a major war is about to happen, so we must hurry up and improve our strength."

Political Commissar Guo took the list and looked at it, and immediately said happily: "The logistics department is so generous to our New Second Regiment. If it were placed in other troops, as long as the personnel were in place, they could form an infantry regiment."

"Political Commissar, in fact, these weapons and equipment were allocated by the superiors to form the new Second Regiment. To put it bluntly, the previous weapons and equipment and personnel were provided by my old comrade Li Yunlong."

After finishing speaking, he briefly talked about the Independent Regiment, the New 1st Regiment, the New 2nd Regiment, and the relationship between him and Kong Hao. The political commissar will deal with these people in the future, so it would be good to understand them in advance to avoid misunderstandings when getting along with them in the future.

After hearing this, Political Commissar Guo suddenly understood what was going on. So that was the case. No wonder.

But then his heart was filled with ecstasy again. It seemed that he was really lucky this time. Coming to the New Second Regiment was the greatest blessing in his life.

Kong Jie continued, "Among our three regiments, the independent regiment is the strongest and can easily defeat a field regiment of the Japanese. Ding Wei's new regiment is second and can contend with a field regiment of the enemy. Our new second regiment is the weakest and can barely defeat a field battalion of the Japanese."

Hearing Kong Jie's description, Political Commissar Guo suddenly became speechless again. The idea of the regiment commander in front of him was really weird. When other troops talked about combat effectiveness, they basically talked about how many people, how many rifles, and how many heavy weapons they had.

But in Kong Jie's words, he directly compared them with the Japanese devils, and right at the beginning, a regiment defeated a Japanese devil's regiment, which was an elite field regiment. How was this possible?

You know, the regiment before him, with all the people in the regiment combined, had difficulty defeating a squadron of Japanese devils. Many times, even when they were ambushing, they basically targeted small squads of enemies.

Kong Jie saw the commissar's appearance and guessed what he was thinking, so he quickly said:

"Commissar, do you think I'm bragging?"
