Chapter 498: Lao Liu, there are only two military radios, one for each of us

Commander Liu was already feeling a little regretful at this time. He brought too few people this time. If he had known earlier, he should have brought all the troops from the first division here to change their equipment. Such a good opportunity is not common.

It’s a pity that he didn’t have a military radio, otherwise he would have been able to contact the political commissar immediately. If he sent someone back to report the news now, it would probably be too late.

After changing his clothes, he led his troops to the agreed location. However, when they arrived, they found that the stronghold here had also been taken down, and a large number of civilians were moving things inside.

So Commander Liu went to the next stronghold without stopping. It was said that there were three artillery towers in this stronghold, which was relatively large in the vicinity. In the past, our troops basically didn't even want to get close to this kind of stronghold.

The main reason is that the enemy's three artillery towers can form cross fire and support each other. Without the Type 92 infantry gun and a large number of artillery shells, it would be impossible to break the Japanese's turtle shell.

However, when he arrived with his troops, he found that the place had also been taken down and Chen Dalei had not left yet.

"Old Liu, now you're here, it's a good opportunity to take a look at the treasures we just seized."

At this time, there was a Type 92 infantry gun in front of Commander Liu, and a pile of artillery boxes next to it. Chen Dalei was standing next to him, proudly showing off to his old comrades.

"Xiao Liuzi, how lucky are you to have gotten such a good treasure? With this Type 92 infantry gun, you will have a handy weapon to attack the Japanese artillery towers in the future. By the way, how many shells did you seize this time?"

"There are about 200 rounds. There are also a large number of weapons and equipment in this stronghold. I think this should be the enemy's strategic reserve, which is ammunition specially used for launching large-scale sweeps. Now all of them have been taken by our troops at once."

"By the way, Lao Liu, you're here just in time. Send a company of troops to escort these weapons and ammunition back. Don't let anything go wrong on the way, otherwise we'll suffer a huge loss."

However, Commander Liu asked curiously, "Xiao Liuzi, tell me the truth, what mysterious weapon did you use to knock down all the enemy's artillery towers so easily?"

"I haven't found any traces of large-scale battles along the way. Tell me about it so I can learn more."

Chen Dalei said mysteriously, "This is a new type of artillery. Captain Kong said it's called a recoilless gun. It has a barrel this long and a support frame. Together, it weighs only about 180 kilograms. It only requires two soldiers to operate it."

"Moreover, the shells of this kind of artillery are also very powerful. A small three-story brick and stone turret like the Japanese can be destroyed directly with just one shell. A large five-story turret only needs about two shells."

The reason why it is so powerful is mainly because Kong Hao specifically requested the system to modify the recoilless gun's shells and use the most advanced explosives. The explosive power is twice as high as that produced by the Eagle Country.

Although the required merit points have increased by 50%, it is still a drop in the bucket for Kong Hao.

A recoilless gun shell destroyed an enemy turret, so Kong Hao made a huge profit no matter how you look at it.

Chen Dalei sighed and continued, "It's a pity that this kind of weapon should be unique to the special forces. If we have such a recoilless gun and a large number of shells, the Japanese artillery tower will be the material supply base for our troops in the future. If we are short of supplies, we can just ask the enemy for them."

After hearing this, Commander Liu also felt extremely regretful. It was a pity that his division could not have such a good weapon, otherwise his future life would have been much better.

Then, Chen Dalei pulled Commander Liu aside, opened the two boxes, and said proudly:

"Old Liu, let me show you a big treasure."

Commander Liu took a look and immediately cried out in surprise:

"Radio, military radio, two of them."

"Shh, Lao Liu, keep your voice down. Don't let everyone know, otherwise the two of us won't be able to keep a treasure of this level."

"Here's what I think. The commander-in-chief already has a radio station, so he won't miss it. Our two military divisions each have one, so we can keep in touch more often in the future."

"Okay, Xiao Liuzi, your idea is good. I agree."

In fact, this was the idea in his mind when he first saw the radio, mainly because this thing was so popular.

The New Fourth Army was extremely short of radio stations. Except for the military district headquarters which had a radio station for receiving orders from superiors, the other six military sub-districts did not have any radio stations.

Even though the First Division, as the eldest son of the military region, has a force the size of two main regiments, it still does not have a radio station. This has always been a regret for Commander Liu.

However, military radios are no more common than other weapons and equipment. Even among the Japanese, there are not many of them. Basically, only battalion-level troops are equipped with them.

With the strength of Commander Liu's division, there is a chance to defeat an enemy battalion if the tactics are appropriate. However, when the Japanese retreat, they will definitely give priority to taking away military radio stations. Even if they cannot take them away, a single grenade can turn the radio into parts. Therefore, it is basically impossible to seize a military radio station on the battlefield.

All of a sudden they got two radios. What they had long dreamed of came true at once. Commander Liu felt like he was in a dream.

If a division has a radio station, plus today's harvest, then their troops will definitely be the main force among the main forces. If this were to be made known to others, it would definitely be a very face-saving thing.

Next, with the cooperation of the large forces in the first division, the speed of destroying the enemy's artillery towers increased greatly, and our gains became greater and greater.

It was not until the afternoon of the next day that a large group of Japanese reinforcements arrived and the Japanese raid was declared over.

In fact, that afternoon, when the commander-in-chief learned that the First and Sixth Divisions could easily destroy the enemy's strongholds and seize a large number of weapons and ammunition, he was overjoyed.

In order to preserve these spoils successfully, he ordered the remaining four military divisions and the main forces of the military divisions to take the initiative to attack, delay the enemies in their respective areas, and buy time for the troops of the first and sixth divisions.

This is also the reason why even though we destroyed a large number of the Japanese artillery towers, their reinforcements were delayed in arriving.

This time the Japanese were seriously injured. Captain Matsui, who was far away in Huaiyin City, could only order all large strongholds to step up their vigilance and evacuate all the defenders of some small artillery towers, so as to not give us the opportunity to defeat them one by one.

By the next evening, the commander-in-chief and the commanders of the other four military sub-districts gathered at the headquarters of the Sixth Military Sub-district. Their purpose was simple: to distribute equipment.
