Bright Sword: Follow Kong's fun and build the strongest military industry
Chapter 691 Tank Bulldozer
In the morning, they were suppressed and beaten by four steel monsters. Even though they tried every means, they were not hurt at all. This depressing feeling was something they had never experienced before. Fortunately, everything was over.
We were not idle either. After the enemy planes left, relevant technicians quickly entered the battlefield and used various instruments to assess the damage caused by the enemy's various bombs to the positions.
This is also an extremely valuable opportunity. In the past, when we were bombed by enemy planes, we could only passively endure it and let the soldiers suffer less losses. There was no opportunity at all to conduct professional surveying and summarizing.
Now we have to start step by step, and know ourselves and the enemy, so that we can win the battle.
In the afternoon, because we were busy with surveying and mapping, we didn't pay attention to the Japanese in the stronghold.
Captain Fujita also ordered his men to get various supplies from the collapsed bunkers to reinforce the defensive positions. Now that the bunker defense system of the stronghold has been destroyed, the only way to defend is to rely on the main bunker, several hidden bunkers, and defensive positions.
But they can now call for aircraft support. Once we launch a large-scale attack, with the support of aircraft and the light and heavy machine guns on the main turret, it will not be a big problem to hold out for a short period of time.
For the next period of time, the battlefield fell into silence, and even our artillery did not conduct routine bombardments.
The next morning, when the defenders of the stronghold were just about to have breakfast, our artillery launched another barrage of artillery fire at the enemy's position. In a short period of time, more than 20 artillery pieces covered the enemy's position.
Faced with this situation, the Japanese and puppet troops in the stronghold could only put down their jobs and run into the trenches dejectedly.
At this time, Captain Zhao had already used another large artillery tower besides the main artillery tower as the battalion headquarters, mainly because the artillery tower was more comfortable than squatting in the cold trenches.
Seeing this scene, he just held his forehead with one hand to prevent himself from cursing out of anger. This behavior of not allowing people to eat is the most despicable.
"Here we go again. Is this going to stop? You're just bullying people by relying on your superior artillery firepower. Can you please let them have a good breakfast?"
The other puppet soldiers did not have this quality. They just started cursing in unison, even the Japanese soldiers did the same. They had never felt so aggrieved before.
However, our enemies will gradually get used to this kind of thing as long as they experience it more often, especially our new light machine guns with 100-round drum magazines, as well as assault rifles and pistols. These can already be mass-produced and gradually equipped to the main forces.
Only then can our light weapons completely crush the enemy, and achieving a 2:1 casualty ratio with the enemy in a small-scale firefight is also a basic operation. The enemy is two and we are one.
As for artillery, except for division-level heavy artillery, our small-caliber artillery actually surpasses the enemy's equipment in both quantity and performance.
After all, Xiaori is an island country with extremely scarce resources. It can be said that most of the raw materials have to be purchased from outside. That must be stingy, and everything is calculated very clearly.
For example, now all the industrial powers in the world are popular using submachine guns for close combat, but the Japanese always use bolt-action rifles to conquer the world, and even their light machine guns require precise shooting. It is simply a weird thing.
The industrial zone of our base has the support of a continent, and with Kong Hao's space gate, it can be said that the cost is further compressed to the limit.
All kinds of top-grade ores can be used freely. Now even the small steel mills in our industrial zone, and even some homemade steel mills, have made it clear that they will not accept iron ore with an iron content of less than 55%.
After all, the higher the quality of the iron ore, the better the steel that can be made, and the corresponding equipment and technology also become much lower accordingly.
The quality of the iron ores found by miners in our industrial zone nearby is getting higher and higher, and more than 65% is not uncommon.
As for the reserves, they are even more astonishing. Currently, the proven reserves in the two most core industrial areas are at least 8 million tons, while the annual output of all our large and small steel mills combined does not reach 1 million tons.
Since we have such good conditions, why should we be polite? We sent a large number of people to mine desperately. Even if they cannot be consumed in a short time, they can store them in nearby warehouses.
Currently, one million tons of various ores are stored in various warehouses. Even if any accidents occur in the future, it will be enough for our steel mills to consume for a year.
Of course, in addition to using these top-quality ores ourselves, we also sell them in large quantities to other forces. Anyone with a little industrial strength can buy them, and the price is very low. All they have to do is find a way to transport the ores to the location we specify.
It doesn't matter whether these ores are used to make high-quality steel in modern factories or in small workshops to make poor-quality steel. Every additional 10,000 tons of steel produced will be a significant improvement to China's national defense.
This is also the reason why many local forces have been so kind to us recently. The main reason is that this kind of top-quality ore cannot be found anywhere else except here.
We are now preparing to open a third large-scale industrial base. Professional prospectors have preliminarily discovered the mineral reserves there, which is quite encouraging.
The actual situation is similar to the two major bases. There are all kinds of iron ore and copper ore. The quality of the ore is also similar, and it seems to have appeared suddenly.
However, no one has conducted a special investigation into this situation. This has happened three times, and everyone has become accustomed to it and is no longer surprised.
Moreover, the location of the No. 3 Industrial Base is also very critical. It is almost under our absolute control and its influence can radiate to more than a dozen surrounding counties.
All kinds of materials produced here can be transported to the battlefield where we confront the enemy at the fastest speed and used to enhance the overall strength of our front-line troops.
As we recover more areas, there will be a fourth, fifth, and even countless industrial zones in the future.
After the bombardment ended, three of the four tanks had been replaced with a new component. When Captain Fujita saw this, he immediately shouted:
"How is this possible? When did a tank become a bulldozer? This is bad."
So next, the Japanese and puppet troops in the stronghold witnessed an extremely shocking scene. They probably would never have imagined that there would be a bulldozer on the battlefield, and it was a modified tank.
If it is just a bulldozer, it is not scary, mainly because it cannot withstand the attack of heavy machine gun bullets. At the same time, a single tank is not scary either, because there are trenches in their strongholds and the tanks cannot get through.
But if the two are combined, they will be the nemesis of such large enemy strongholds.
