Chapter 162 A group of big guys came
After hearing the communications soldier's words, the excitement in the eyes of the two people who were originally excited instantly dimmed.
In this way,
The regiment headquarters was facing a frontal battlefield and would not be able to capture the north gate in a short period of time.
"Captain, I have another piece of bad news to tell you." Having said this, the soldier who had just returned suddenly paused.
As soon as the words are spoken,
Captain Chen and Wei Dayong both focused their attention on him, with a serious look in their eyes.
"What's the matter? Just tell me!" Seeing that he was still keeping the secret, the impatient Wei Dayong was the first one who couldn't help himself.
"The situation on the front battlefield is not optimistic. Just now, the second battalion commander led the soldiers of the second battalion to charge several times, but they were beaten back every time. In just half an hour of siege, the number of comrades sacrificed has exceeded the total number of comrades sacrificed in all the previous battles of our guard regiment." Speaking of this, the soldier's mood was a little low.
In the days of the Guards,
We ate and lived together and fought together on the battlefield. In other words, it was a friendship of life and death.
It would be hard for anyone to feel good to lose so many comrades at once.
Hearing this,
Old Chen, the captain of the guard company, suddenly looked gloomy and couldn't help but sigh.
"My brothers in the Guards are all brave men. Seeing them sacrificed makes me feel really sad!"
Compared with the frontal battlefield, their attack on Liujia Town was too smooth. Thinking of the brothers in other battalions who were facing life-and-death threats at any time in the siege, they were indeed a little panicked.
"Since the establishment of our guard regiment, we have never lost a battle. Under the leadership of the regiment commander, we have defeated the enemy with overwhelming superiority several times. I'm afraid that our guard regiment has run into a tough opponent this time." Wei Dayong said with some sigh.
There were more than 3,000 soldiers guarding the city.
More than a thousand of them were the Japanese night combat infantry battalion, the elite troops withdrawn from the front line, and they were no match for the ordinary Japanese.
in other words,
This is definitely the elite force of the devils.
In this frontal siege, they had the advantage in weapons, but did not gain much advantage in terrain and numbers.
instead,
The city wall of Ninghai County is high. Even if artillery of a certain caliber can bring down the wall, the foundation of the wall is like a natural barrier, and there is nothing that can be done in a short period of time.
When the two of them were helpless and sighing,
Secretary Yuan Hua, who was in charge of the logistics of the transport troops, suddenly brightened up his eyes, as if he had thought of something.
"By the way, two company commanders, I have to tell you something. Deputy Regiment Commander You got some good stuff in the rear of the Second War Zone, but because he bought it late, he was not able to register it on the equipment list."
"If there is a lack of large-caliber lethal weapons on the front battlefield, the treasure that Deputy Regiment Commander You bought this time may just be able to solve this problem!"
Secretary Yuen Wah said this.
Captain Chen and Wei Dayong, who were originally frowning, were slightly startled, their eyes full of confusion.
"Secretary Yuan Hua, what exactly is the treasure you are talking about? Could it be a large-caliber killing weapon?" At this point, Captain Chen's eyes lit up instantly.
To know,
The lack of large-caliber anti-personnel weapons on the front battlefield prevented the northern city wall from being captured in a short period of time. If the 120mm mortar had not been exchanged with the th Brigade, the Guards Regiment would not have fallen into the current predicament.
Now think about it,
The regiment leader suffered a great loss in the transaction at the beginning. Nowadays, large-caliber artillery is a treasure that is hard to buy even with money. It is rare even in the country, let alone buying it with money.
Just at this time,
Comrade Yuan Hua's next words brought a big surprise to the two of them.
"Two company commanders, to be honest with you, Deputy Regiment Commander You found a batch of good stuff in the rear of the Second War Zone this time. He got it from the Eastern Army!"
Hear this,
The impatient Wei Dayong was the first to get impatient and asked:
"Comrade Yuen Wah, the situation is urgent, please stop keeping us in suspense and get to the point!"
Seeing that Wei Dayong was extremely anxious, Comrade Yuan Hua didn't beat around the bush and simply gave a brief introduction to these treasures.
"Deputy Regiment Commander You spent 200,000 French francs to get a batch of heavy artillery from the Eastern Army. Although they are a bit old, they are very powerful. They are 150mm mortars made in the old Liaoning!"
Before Comrade Yuan Hua finished speaking, Captain Chen was so shocked that he interrupted him.
"Oh my god, you are kidding me, a 150mm cannon, are those Eastern Army soldiers crazy because of poverty?"
To know,
The domestic situation is tense. Whoever has guns and bullets can be king. A 150mm caliber cannon is a treasure that cannot be bought with money.
Deputy Captain You only spent 200,000 French francs to get such a big guy. Even if it is a little old, it is still a big profit.
"Not only that, Deputy Regiment Commander You used the 200,000 French francs to not only buy five 150mm cannons, but also 400 rounds of artillery shells. This is definitely enough for this battle!"
Comrade Yuan Hua continued to explain that he was in logistics after all, and he was stunned when he saw Deputy Commander You bargaining with the Eastern Army.
The price of five 150mm cannons was reduced from 500,000 French francs to 200,000, and 400 shells were included.
What a bargaining skill this person must have.
You can’t work in logistics without this ability.
At this time, the captain of the guard company was also stunned. A caliber of 150 mm was simply too brutal and unreasonable.
Don't talk about the five doors.
In the current situation, just one door would be enough to break the stalemate on the front line.
The muzzle of the gun is 150 mm, and when it fires, the surrounding area for dozens of kilometers will shake.
"Haha, Comrade Yuanhua, you have helped a lot this time. We must quickly tell the regiment headquarters this news and pull these five cannons to the front line of the regiment!" Company Commander Chen said excitedly, grabbing Comrade Yuanhua's shoulders.
Wei Dayong did not dare to delay and immediately asked Comrade Yuan Hua:
"Lao Yuan, tell me where the five cannons are now. We must move them to the Ninghai County front and tell the regiment commander the good news!"
How could Wei Dayong remain calm when he heard about the cannons? The soldiers on the front line in Ninghai County were facing the threat of death at all times.
With this cannon, we will definitely be able to break the deadlock on the front line.
Comrade Yuan Hua was also very excited. He felt a little dizzy after being shaken by Captain Chen. He pointed to the transport team behind and said:
"Don't worry, I'll put these big guys at the end because it's too troublesome to load and unload, so they're all escorted in batches!"
After hearing this, Captain Chen could not contain his excitement and pulled Comrade Yuan Hua towards the rear transport team.
"Lao Yuan, this matter cannot be delayed. Take us to find the cannon and get this treasure to the front line!"
Comrade Yuan Hua also understood that there was no time to lose, so he immediately took Captain Chen and ran to the rear of the transport team to find the location of the cannon.
The journey is long,
Most of the cargo was covered with black cloth, but this cannon was easily recognizable due to its large size.
"Captain Chen, it's here!" After finding the cannon, Comrade Yuan Hua climbed onto the truck and pulled away the black cloth covering it.
