Bright Sword: Double penetration of the dealer, shocking Li Yunlong

Li Jingrong shook his head and said, "There's no such thing as gratitude or ungratefulness. Everything is done to drive the Japanese out of our homeland. I'm just doing my bit."

"These ammunition only weigh about a thousand tons. What else is left?"

Brigade Commander Chen asked curiously.

Li Jingrong smiled and said, "The rest are light and heavy machine guns and artillery."

"Considering the Eighth Route Army's lack of firepower, I brought 56 Type light machine guns this time."

“—千挺PKM(67式)通用机枪，54式重机枪200挺，67式手榴弹100万枚。”

"40 2000mm rocket launchers and a lot of ammunition."

"The rest are just mortars."

When they heard the above numbers, Brigade Commander Chen and others were stunned.

When machine guns are calculated in thousands, their impact is still very great.

Even Li Yunlong is the same.

After all, their independent regiment now only has two or three hundred machine guns in total.

This time, there were as many as 56 Type 5000 light machine guns alone.

The total number of all machine guns reached 6200.

Currently, the total strength of the Eighth Route Army is about 30.

If these machine guns are distributed, on average every 50 people can get one, which means that a platoon can be equipped with a light machine gun.

This firepower configuration is already quite luxurious for the Eighth Route Army.

Before, even a main force regiment did not have many machine guns, only a dozen or twenty at most.

However, when he heard the word "mortar", Brigade Commander Chen came to his senses.

There are so many machine guns, so there should be quite a few mortars.

Li Jingrong led them to the enemy's mortar area, pointed at the boxes and said, "I don't bring many mortars this time, but it should be enough."

After hearing what Li Jingrong said, the corner of Li Yunlong's mouth twitched.

He was too familiar with this scene.

He used to be so cocky, always saying that it wasn't a lot, but wasn't he just trying to show off?

It seems that Brother Li has also learned the essence.

He kept saying that the number was not large, but it was definitely not small. Just listen to him.

“其中60mm迫击炮1000门，82毫米的中口径迫击炮500门，大口径的120mm迫击炮只有100门。”

"As for artillery shells, the three calibers combined only produced about 80 rounds, which averages out to about 500 per gun."

"If it's not enough, you can tell me and I'll bring another one or two hundred thousand next time."

As expected, as expected, he even showed off to Li Yunlong.

But it seems that the brigade commander is quite fond of this.

"This...so many mortars? And there are 80 rounds of ammunition."

The brigade commander's pupils flickered as he spoke blankly.

Brigade Commander Chen is a veteran and has also studied with the Polar Bear.

But to be honest, he had never seen so many artillery pieces, and these artillery pieces were placed right in front of them.

A total of 1600 mortars of three calibers.

Although he did not count, the total number of mortars of the entire Eighth Route Army would not exceed 1000.

Their 386th Brigade was also the main force brigade of the entire Eighth Route Army.

Before Li Jingrong arrived, the total number of mortars in the entire brigade was less than 22.

Now there are 1600 artillery guns and 80 rounds of ammunition in front of him. How can he not be shocked?

Li Yunlong couldn't help but say, "My God, Brother Li, have you emptied the artillery factory?"

Li Jingrong glanced at him and said, "This little mortar is nothing. I'll take you to see the big guy."

"Big guy, heavy artillery?"

Li Yunlong was greatly encouraged and asked with anticipation in his eyes.

Li Jingrong nodded and said, "Yes, real large-caliber heavy artillery, and there are quite a few of them, including one for Brigade Commander Chen."

The brigade commander walked ahead without saying a word.

The mortar had a great impact on him.

But compared to real large-caliber heavy artillery, mortars are really not good enough.

After a while, there was light at the end of the tunnel. When they turned a corner, they saw that the place was surrounded by soldiers in three layers.

"What are you all standing around looking at? Are you worried that there's not enough stuff to move?"

Li Yunlong shouted loudly.

When the soldiers outside saw the brigade commander and the regimental commander coming, they saluted excitedly and replied, "Report, regimental commander, we have never seen so many cannons, so many."

The brigade commander rushed onto his horse and rushed inside.

The soldiers quickly made way for a passage.

Inside, there were rows of brand new Type 541 122mm heavy artillery neatly arranged.

There are ten doors in a row, and five rows in total, which means 50 doors in total.

Next to this pile of 122mm heavy artillery, there are several other heavy artillery pieces that are much larger in size.

The other eight 8mm rocket launchers seem a bit inconspicuous, but no one dares to ignore its power.

"this....."

The brigade commander pointed at the artillery pieces in shock and asked Li Jingrong, who was standing beside him, "How many are these?"

Li Jingrong held out his palm, raised it before the brigade commander's eyes, and said, "That's exactly 50 guns. Ten of them will go to the 10th Brigade. That should be enough for Brigade Commander Chen to form a heavy artillery battalion."

Upon hearing this, Brigade Commander Chen laughed heartily and said, "Enough, of course it's enough."

"Advisor Li has given me so many great gifts this time. I, Old Chen, accept this favor. If you have any problems in the future, just come to me. I will definitely not refuse anything I can solve."

After saying this, he stared at the cannons with a fascinated look.

He wanted to pull them all back to the 386th Brigade, but he knew that most of these guns had been handed over to the headquarters.

He really didn't have the courage to do that, otherwise the commander would have come to his house the next day.

However, his eyes quickly turned to the other side, where the six Type 6 66mm howitzers were located.

When Li Yunlong saw the dangerous look in the brigade commander's eyes, he immediately became anxious and stood in front of the brigade commander, trying to block his sight.

"Commander, we've seen enough. Why don't we go back? I've asked the kitchen staff to prepare your favorite braised pork."

Brigade Commander Chen ignored him, pushed him away, and walked towards the Type 66 heavy artillery.

When Li Yunlong saw this scene, he felt as distraught as a salted fish that had lost its dream.

Li Jingrong just wanted to laugh when he saw this scene, so he walked over and comforted him: "Don't worry, Brigade Commander Chen won't take away the damn thing."

"Hey."

Li Yunlong didn't say anything, but followed with a sad face.

Brigade Commander Chen came to the Type 66 heavy artillery with the muzzle lowered and touched the cold barrel with his palm.

Then he stretched out his fist and measured the muzzle of the gun a few times.

"This gun is really good. The barrel is so long that it doesn't look like a howitzer, but it doesn't look like a cannon either. The caliber must be over 150mm."

Li Jingrong gave a thumbs up and praised: "The brigade commander is really knowledgeable. This is indeed not an ordinary howitzer. Its full name is a cannon howitzer."

Li Yunlong, this old-fashioned man, had never seen artillery with a caliber larger than 130mm, let alone this kind of 152mm heavy artillery.

In the entire Republic of China, only the Central Army was equipped with 150mm howitzers, with a total of 48 guns, and as the war progressed, many were lost.

"What is this howitzer?"

Li Yunlong asked curiously.

At this time, Brigade Commander Chen explained: "Can't we understand it literally?"

"If I am right, this gun, with a shallow muzzle and a large charge, can perform the duties of a cannon."

"Using a high firing angle and a small charge, its trajectory is curved and can be used for howitzer missions."

"Also, its caliber is larger than that of ordinary howitzers, and its range is not too short."

As expected of a battle-hardened general, he really knows what he is talking about.

After all, the real concept of the howitzer only began to take shape in the early 50s.

"Brigade Commander Chen's explanation was very thorough."

"This Type 66 howitzer has a caliber of 152mm, weighs 5.7 tons, has a caliber of 34, and a maximum range of 17 kilometers."

"17 kilometers."

Brigade Commander Chen was shocked.

It can be used as both a howitzer and a cannon, and it has such a long range.

This is really a treasure.

"Brigade Commander, I asked Advisor Li to bring this. My independent regiment is now your main force, so you can't take it away from me."

Brigade Commander Chen looked at Li Yunlong and said, "Since you didn't cause me any trouble this time, I won't move these cannons."

This time he was assigned 10 122mm howitzers, as there was a big gap in artillery.

Although this 152mm heavy artillery is very good, there is no manpower to operate it if it is pulled back, so it is better to keep it in the independent regiment.

Moreover, the Japanese army may make a big move next. The stronger the independent regiment is, the more advantageous it will be for the next battle.

Li Yunlong's face was immediately filled with smiles. Regardless of the crowd, he said flatteringly, "Thank you, Brigade Commander, for not killing me."

Several people walked around the pile of weapons for more than an hour, and directed the moving of things on the spot.

It was almost time for dinner when everyone went back.

The brigade commander left after lunch.

Li Jingrong suddenly remembered that he had something else, so he said to Brigade Commander Chen, "Brigade Commander, I brought some goodies this time."

"What good stuff?"

When Li Yunlong heard the three words "good stuff", his eyes lit up brighter than anyone else's and his reaction was faster than anyone else's.

Brigade Commander Chen glanced at him and asked, "What good stuff?"

"Radio."

Brigade Commander Chen's eyes lit up and he said happily, "This is indeed a good thing. Although Advisor Li sent a batch of radios here before, not many were allocated to our 386th Brigade."

The three of them followed Li Jingrong back to Wangjiagou.

In a remote corner, there are some more exquisite iron boxes piled up.

Li Jingrong opened a box in No. 1 Middle School and took out two portable walkie-talkies.

“Is this a radio station?”

Brigade Commander Chen was a little confused. He couldn't associate these two brick-like objects with the radio.

Li Jingrong nodded and said, "To be precise, it is a portable radio walkie-talkie, which can also be regarded as a wireless phone."

"Although its communication range is only 15 kilometers, it is more than enough to equip battalion and company-level troops."

"Should foreign technology be so advanced now?"

After hearing the radio, Brigade Commander Chen couldn't help but say in surprise.

15 km wireless telephone.

This thing can play a vital role in combat.

After all, the importance of maintaining open communications among troops during combat is self-evident.

Li Jingrong shook his head and said, "This isn't actually Western technology, it's ours. To be honest, we haven't tested this batch of radios yet, so whether they'll be reliable in wartime remains to be seen."

When Brigade Commander Chen heard this, a puzzled look flashed across his face.

These words have already acknowledged that there is a mysterious force behind him, and this force does not seem to have anything to do with the Western powers.

But he resisted the urge to continue discussing it, as it was none of his business.

"You won't know if it's reliable until you use it. This thing is much better than nothing."

"Li Yunlong, go call your regiment's signalman over so we can test this new gadget."

"Yes, Brigadier."
