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

After hearing this, Kong Hao smiled and said, "Actually, the Japs' junky planes aren't anything worth our attention. Even if we want to imitate them, we should imitate advanced foreign aircraft. The Japs' fighters and bombers are rubbish. But after we transport these aircraft wreckage back, we can find a place to display them. It will boost the morale of our troops and can be considered a good use of waste."

"By the way, the trenches are now basically filled. We will launch a general attack on the Japanese stronghold shortly. Each of you should select a team of elite troops to participate in the attack. The number of people does not need to be too large, just two reinforced companies will be enough. We will launch the attack from two directions simultaneously."

After hearing this, Captain Fan was overjoyed. The Japanese were now at the end of their strength. As long as they made a little more effort, they could easily capture the stronghold in front of them.

Originally, he thought that the Sichuan Army Corps would not be allowed to participate in the final general offensive, and the Fourth Military Sub-district would enjoy the glory alone.

This situation is the most normal thing for the National Army. In fact, it is considered a good thing that whoever contributes the most will gain the greatest military merit.

What's even more outrageous is that the troops fighting the enemy in the front paid a huge price in casualties and finally consumed the enemy's main force. However, at the most critical moment, some central troops hiding in the back suddenly rushed out to grab the credit by relying on their backing. This is simply shameless.

The Sichuan Army was the local force that benefited the most from the spoils. It was because they were the weakest and had no generals at the level of war zone commanders, unlike the Guangxi Army and the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army, which had many big bosses supporting them.

But today, Captain Fan was filled with emotion. To put it bluntly, their Sichuan Army Corps had hardly contributed much to the battles of the past two days and had only been there to make up the numbers the whole time.

However, the Eighth Route Army was a little too kind to the Sichuan Army, making it difficult for them to adapt all of a sudden.

The two armies had similar food. Whatever the Eighth Route Army had, the Sichuan Army Corps basically had, and some even had more. This was treatment they had never encountered since they left Sichuan.

And this is the most basic thing. Just now, Captain Kong personally promised that the crashed enemy bomber they found would belong to the Sichuan Army Corps. After the battle is over, it can be pulled back to their Sichuan Army Corps’ base.

Captain Fan suddenly felt that he owed a huge favor. Although their Sichuan Army had shot down enemy planes by chance on the battlefield before, in such a complicated environment, there was no chance to transport the wreckage back.

Normally, it is the Japanese who send people to search for their pilots and aircraft debris, and will not give the Chinese combat troops any opportunity to publicize a great victory.

It will not be like now, our troops have plenty of time to search for the wreckage of enemy aircraft and find a way to transport it back.

If this is really transported back, their regiment will become famous, and it might even alert the divisional and corps commanders. There are a lot of fragments of the enemy bomber, and they can even give some to the soldiers to carry with them, so they can take them out and feel them whenever they want.

After returning to the regimental headquarters, Commander Fan called together several battalion commanders and explained the upcoming battle plan. This immediately caused a sensation, and everyone wanted their troops to participate, as it was a great honor.

Especially the three battalion commanders, they all wanted to lead the team to participate in the final general offensive, and wanted to experience the feeling of beating the enemy with the support of tanks and artillery. This was what they had always dreamed of. If they missed this opportunity, it would probably be difficult to encounter it again in the future.

Finally, after a heated debate, the next battle was led by Captain Fan. He gathered all the veterans who had fought in the battlefield in the regiment, formed a reinforced company of about 200 people, and equipped them with all the good weapons, and would launch an attack in another direction soon.

At this critical moment, they must use the Sichuan Army's greatest combat power, otherwise if someone fails to perform, it will be extremely embarrassing.

After everyone was ready, a transport team arrived from the front-line command headquarters. It consisted of more than 30 tricycles and was led by a company commander of the Eighth Route Army.

"Reporting to Captain Fan, our unit has been ordered to transport a batch of supplies. Commander Yun specially allocated these supplies, and they will be used in the next attack on the enemy stronghold."

"This includes 1,000 offensive grenades, 500 defensive grenades, and 50,000 rounds of various ammunition."

"Friendly troops are here to deliver supplies. Thank you very much. With so much ammunition, the next battle will be easier."

You should know that the grenades produced by the Eighth Route Army are famous for their power. Offensive grenades are loaded with more explosives and mainly rely on shock wave killing power; defensive grenades are heavier and produce a large amount of fragments after explosion, which can quickly kill the enemy's manpower.

In fact, the Sichuan Army also purchased a large number of new grenades from our base, and the price was relatively low, which can be regarded as good value for money.

However, the Sichuan Army had so many people in total, and their own financial resources were relatively limited, so there were not many infantry troops allocated to Commander Fan.

Now the entire Sichuan Army Corps has only fifty new grenades in total. These are the treasures of the entire regiment and can only be used in the most critical battles. The ones used in normal times are produced by small workshops. Not to mention their poor power, the fuses often malfunction and they fail to explode.

These fifty grenades are all defensive type, which is also the unified choice of all troops that come to our arsenal to purchase grenades. This is because defensive grenades are powerful and produce more fragments, and one can replace several other types.

As for the defensive grenade, it is too heavy, weighing almost one and a half pounds, and generally thinner soldiers cannot throw it far. In fact, this problem is also easy to solve.

Every army unit has a few strong soldiers, and these people can be separated and specially trained to throw grenades. Anyway, the number of these new grenades is limited, and it is impossible to distribute them to every soldier.

Just like the Sichuan Army Corps, the importance of this grenade is almost as important as the thirteen mortar shells of their regiment. During battle, it requires the regiment commander's approval before it can be used.

As for the ability to choose to use offensive or defensive grenades during combat, only the Eighth Route Army has this condition.

When Captain Fan saw that they had obtained 1,500 new grenades at once, he was immediately overjoyed. This increased the grenade reserves of their Sichuan Army Corps by dozens of times.

Moreover, according to the current situation, this final battle will not consume so many grenades. They can just keep most of them, so they don't have to be so stingy when fighting the enemy in the future.

As for the 50,000 rounds of bullets, they solved the urgent needs of the Sichuan Army Corps and were enough to double the ammunition reserves of the entire regiment.

But the good news doesn't just end there. Another team came over, led by a platoon leader.
