Chapter 982 Taking advantage of the situation
The facts are indeed as Wu Zhenlei said. The Russians have nearly 70 troops stationed in the north of the Xiongnu steppe.
Now that they are very powerful, they are always looking for some friction.
However, Tang Guoping and Liu Xiaoshan are not pushovers either. They have nearly 20 troops under their command. If you dare to make any move, I will immediately fight back with super-powerful means. At the same time, they are conducting actual combat military exercises in the north continuously, which shocked the Rakshasa spies and made them not make any big moves.
Li Shaoyi had anticipated this situation long ago. If the Russians did not take any action when our main force advanced southward, the land they have now would probably not belong to them.
Didn't they seize the vast tracts of land from Europe to Asia? If they didn't keep an eye on these opportunities, where would they find so much land?
The two talked about some other things, and Wu Zhenlei revealed an important piece of news. From today on, as long as the weather is good, even if it is cloudy or rainy, transport planes taking off from the island city will replenish them with various supplies.
We cannot cram at the last minute. We have to start training from today. We need to set up special observers on the ground to observe the wind direction and wind speed, where to deliver supplies, and how we can get the most. All of this needs to be recorded, and data can change everything.
Guo Shaoqiu fully supports this, even though we are still connected to the main position in Pujiang.
However, the combat effectiveness of other surrounding troops is too poor. Compared with Japan's ace divisions, their combat effectiveness is not on the same level.
If we really lose contact, we'll have to rely on air transport.
Of course, Guo Shaoqiu had other ideas in mind. If our rear contact was really cut off, we would not necessarily rely on air transport. My men were not without weapons. We could organize an armed assault team and rush directly from behind. We had agreed with Commander Wu that the convoy would be waiting at a certain place, and we would just go straight over.
Wu Zhenlei also agreed with Guo Shaoqiu's proposal. This young man is very brave. He has found a solution to the crisis before it even happened. If it were some old generals, they probably would not dare to use such a method to solve the problem except to make a request to their superiors.
For the next day, apart from conducting exploratory artillery bombardments, the Japanese did not launch a large-scale offensive. It seemed that they had also realized that using the existing forces to attack would be just giving people food and gaining credit, and it would be impossible to make any substantial progress.
Guo Shaoqiu was also busy. On the one hand, he was reinforcing his position, and on the other hand, he drove some broken armored vehicles and tanks to the back and replaced them with brand new ones. After all, Commander Wu said that we have plenty of these things in our warehouse.
We told others that we had returned for repairs, and we did indeed train a repair team. Of course, after the repairs were completed, many weapons were half-sold and half-given away to brother armies. According to Li Shaoyi, we must use good weapons on the battlefield, otherwise what about my brothers' lives?
"Report to the commander, the commander of the 53rd Regiment, Su Kang..."
After running for four days, the 53rd Regiment finally arrived at the battlefield. Although they were the original Zhejiang Provincial Military Police Regiment, they were in a very bad state due to the forced march, but their weapons and equipment were still in good condition.
"Let the brothers have a good rest first. The battlefield has been relatively calm these past two days. Eat and drink as you please. If you need anything, just let me know."
Su Kang is also a young man. He graduated from the 5th class of Whampoa Military Academy. His family has some influence in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Otherwise, he would not have been able to become the commander of the gendarmerie regiment.
Almost all the troops previously stationed in Zhejiang Province were pulled here. They were originally there to maintain local peace, but they had no one under their command, so they had no choice but to drag them to the battlefield. These guys had long been clamoring to go to Pujiang to fight the Japanese, but they didn't expect to end up in Luodian as soon as they arrived.
Everyone on the Pujiang battlefield knows that Luodian is the lifeline of the entire Pujiang battlefield.
"Commander Guo, we are under your command. Please leave any important missions to us. We know that compared to your 72nd Army, we may not be able to do much, but we have never neglected our training. Look at my brothers, not a single one of them smokes opium."
Su Kang was afraid that Guo Shaoqiu would look down on his men and ask them to take care of logistics. On the way here, he saw Captain Fan of the Sichuan Army. What was the point of coming early? Except for a small number of people joining the combat troops, most of them were still transporting ammunition because those Sichuan Army lacked training.
But we are different. From the day we were established, all kinds of army training were carried out in accordance with the requirements of Whampoa. This guy graduated from the Infantry Department of Whampoa, so he naturally knows how to demand things of his subordinates.
Although his training was not the same as that of real Whampoa officers, for example, all kinds of supplies could not be met, but he also tried his best to improve the combat effectiveness of his brothers. This guy had a premonition that since the January 28 Incident, there would definitely be trouble in Pujiang.
"Don't worry, every army has its own capabilities, and I will never ask you to carry supplies. I noticed the moment you and your group arrived. You've suffered a lot, but your firepower is probably lacking. I'll have someone take a look later. If you need anything, just ask. If I don't have it, I'll find a way to replace it for you. You can't be short of supplies on the battlefield."
Hearing what Guo Shaoqiu said, Su Kang almost jumped for joy. It takes a thousand days to train an army and only a moment to deploy it. The Japanese devils are wreaking havoc on our land. Brothers came to Pujiang to fight the Japanese devils. Even if we die on the battlefield, we will have an explanation to our ancestors in the future.
"We're mainly short of machine guns and mortars. According to the German-equipped division's organization, each infantry squad must have a Czech light machine gun, but we don't have enough of them right now. The main reason is that we used to be a military police regiment, and having too many of them is useless."
Su Kang is a very shameless guy. As soon as Guo Shaoqiu finished speaking, he made this request.
According to Guo Shaoqiu's idea, they should be equipped with German general-purpose machine guns, but Su Kang also said that the brothers have used Czech light machine guns so much that they can form combat effectiveness with them. If they want to use general-purpose machine guns, they will have to adapt for a while, mainly because that thing consumes too many bullets. Even if Guo Shaoqiu supplies it, the brothers will not be able to control it for the time being.
