Chapter 686: As long as we have the green mountains, we will never run out of firewood. We can'
After receiving Li Yunlong's reminder, Chu Yunfei quickly led his men to Warehouse No. 6 and arranged two battalions of soldiers to transport the ammunition. It took nearly an hour to transport all the ammunition.
"Brother Ligong, immediately arrange for someone to distribute this batch of incendiary bombs to me. The Japanese paratroopers are estimated to arrive in more than half an hour. No matter what, we can't let the Japanese succeed in their conspiracy. Our 358th Regiment has rested for such a long time, it's time for us to take the field. We can't let Li Yunlong's independent regiment fight every battle. Our 358th Regiment can't just watch the show from the sidelines!"
"The old commander has sent us so many new recruits. If we want to turn these new recruits into veterans as quickly as possible, we have to let them participate in battle after battle. There is no other way. Relying solely on training is just a show. It will not produce real veterans at all."
"The reason why the independent regiment fought so hard at Niangzi Pass was because their veterans were basically all used up, and most of them were new recruits, which caused the independent regiment's combat effectiveness to drop too quickly. Otherwise, there wouldn't be such heavy casualties."
"We must learn from the lessons of the Independent Regiment and adopt the method of old soldiers training new soldiers. We must transfer the surviving veterans back from the battlefield to train new soldiers in the rear. Only in this way can the front get a steady stream of elite new soldiers, and the veterans can also be repaired in time and pass on their experience in fighting to the new soldiers, thus forming a perfect closed loop."
"I, Chu Yunfei, had never thought of this before. It was only after being reminded by the college students that I realized the benefits of this. The independent regiment almost lost its organization in the previous battle, but the reason why it was able to quickly complete the reconstruction was that this training method played a huge role."
"We must make use of such a good idea. The Japanese are coming with great force this time. I'm afraid that not many of our more than 10,000 people will survive in the end. However, those who can really survive are the elite!"
Chief of Staff Fang Ligong nodded in agreement: "Captain Chu, I agree with you. We really can't just stand by and watch. Li Yunlong's independent regiment had only more than 1000 people at the beginning, and now it has expanded to more than people, but the combat effectiveness has not decreased much. It can be seen that the method proposed by college students to train the new is really very useful."
"The war between us and the Japanese will not end in one or two days. It will take several years or even decades. We need to be prepared for a long-term battle. According to what I have learned, the situation of our allies is not optimistic. The Battle of Midway ended in a draw. To be precise, the allies suffered huge losses and barely blocked the Japanese attack."
"This is completely different from what we expected. It makes it even more difficult for our allies to send their forces to us. We even had to open up the Hump Route. This shows how anxious our allies are. Shancheng has even urgently transferred a batch of weapons and ammunition to the main force of our Shanxi-Suiyuan Army, asking us to launch a counterattack when the opportunity arises."
"In addition, the Mountain City has also sent out an expeditionary force of 100,000, which shows how bad the battlefield is. The college students analyzed the world war situation with us before, and the outcome will be known soon, but both the East and the West are in a stalemate."
"If the Japanese succeed in launching the Second Battle of Midway, the consequences will be disastrous. Although the college student has repeatedly claimed that the Japanese navy has reached the end of its strength and will soon show signs of fatigue due to lack of oil, the reality is very different from what he said. The performance of the Allied forces in the Eastern and Western battlefields is very poor. It is not an exaggeration to say that they have been defeated. In a short period of time, if we want to make a huge change in the war situation, we must have God's help!"
Chief of Staff Fang Ligong was very pessimistic. In fact, none of Lin Zhenhua's analysis in recent days was consistent with the news he heard. This also made Chu Yunfei, who had always believed that Lin Zhenhua was right, doubtful.
"Brother Ligong, I think the college student's analysis is correct. Even if the war is not decided this year, it will definitely be decided next year. The Allied forces' industrial production capacity is very strong. The current industrial production has not yet reached its limit. At most, it is running at half of its capacity. I heard that their soldiers directly use luncheon meat to polish their shoes. It shows how extravagant the soldiers are."
"But the Japanese Zero fighters are indeed very powerful. They really defeated the Allied forces. But I believe that with the Allied technological strength, they will soon be able to produce fighters to counter the Japanese."
"No matter how much the Japanese jump, the problem of insufficient resources is difficult to be solved in a short time. I firmly believe that we will succeed!"
Compared to the busy Lin Zhenhua and Li Yunlong, Chu Yunfei and Fang Ligong were very idle. Their mission was to intercept the Japanese paratroopers. They could not really take part in the current ground-to-air war. The consumption of ammunition was very shocking to them. It also allowed them to witness the powerful military production capacity of the Zhaojiay Arsenal for the first time.
"Old Li, this ground-to-air showdown is about to begin. Our anti-aircraft firepower deployed on the ground has consumed 2/3 of the reserve ammunition and shot down more than 60 Japanese fighter planes. The results are still very brilliant."
"After 15 minutes, all anti-aircraft firepower will stop attacking. The next air interception operation will be handed over to the Air Force Regiment. Notify all anti-aircraft gun positions to prepare. Stop firing on time at 10:18 am!"
"Notify the defenders of Niangzi Pass and have them hide in the air-raid shelters immediately. Use the minefields deployed in advance to hinder the enemy's advance. According to the intelligence just sent back by the reconnaissance aircraft, more than 100 bombers will fly directly over Niangzi Pass and launch a bombing operation on the Niangzi Pass positions."
"The number of fighter planes Liu Haishan has is insufficient to fight against more than 300 Japanese fighter planes. I have asked Liu Haishan to be prepared to run away if he cannot win. We can't be foolish enough to fight the Japanese desperately, which will only make our situation worse." Lin Zhenhua put down the pencil in his hand and spoke with a serious face.
Li Yunlong had been watching the Niangzi Pass battlefield. Listening to the news coming from the front line, his face was very ugly. He really didn't expect the Japanese to be so cunning. The real target of the attack was the Niangzi Pass position. The Taiyuan City was just a feint. But even if it was a feint to attack Taiyuan City, it was too scary and completely beyond their ability to deal with.
"College student, I agree with your suggestion. As long as we have the green mountains, we will not be afraid of running out of firewood. We can't spend all our family assets!"
