Anti-Japanese War: From Becoming Chu Yunfei to Rising

Chapter 306: North China Front Army Purge; Base Construction Submodule Upgrade, Resources Increase! (Request for Subscription)

"Everyone has it. The weapons, ammunition, and equipment received by each company must be signed by the company commander at the logistics department."

"Make sure there are no problems with the weapons and ammunition before leaving. Of course, you shouldn't linger over the logistics department either."

"Do you understand everything?"

"understand!"

"Okay, company one, turn right and march in step."

The 11th Infantry Regiment was now outside the Changzhi Arsenal, lined up in an orderly manner, receiving American weapons distributed by the Logistics Department.

This batch of aid materials is basically the Americans’ inventory.

Weapons and equipment such as the Springfield rifle were most likely produced before, but for the soldiers, they are also rare and good weapons.

The M1903 Springfield rifle has a caliber of 7.62 mm, a total length of 1097 mm, and an empty gun weight of 3.9 kg.

The magazine capacity is 5 rounds, the firing rate is 10 rounds per minute, the effective range is 800 meters, and the bolt operation mode is a rotating rear-pull bolt.

Excellent performance, good quality control, and rarely exploded.

After the M1905 bayonet is installed, close combat is also possible.

It is shorter than the Japanese Type 38 rifle, which will cause a slight disadvantage in bayonet fighting.

However, with the fighting style of the American-equipped infantry regiment, there were basically few opportunities for bayonet fighting.

Although there was no large-scale assistance of Thompson submachine guns this time, the Browning light machine gun was also suitable for use in close-range combat.

“This gun feels pretty good.”

A soldier pulled the bolt of his gun and sniffed the butter on it.

"Oh my god, didn't we have two of these American heavy machine guns before?"

"Well, the firepower is strong and the power is great."

"Damn it! I never expected that our group would be the first to complete the new equipment replacement!"

A platoon leader was filled with emotion.

Watching the soldiers picking up their equipment on their own.

Even he himself was given a Browning self-defense pistol.

"Platoon leader, remember to be careful when you receive the self-defense pistols and grenades. Many soldiers have never used these before. Be sure to teach them well when you return!"

The logistics officer waved to the captain who was not far away: "Where's the company commander?"

"Brother, who is your company commander? Are you the company commander? Please come and register."

After the 11th Infantry Regiment completed its equipment change.

There are still a lot of weapons and equipment left.

In this operation, Zhou Weiguo's assault regiment also performed excellently.

Sniper rifles with optical sights are naturally given priority in supplying assault regiments.

After Zhou Weiguo's troops completed the comprehensive replacement of equipment.

Chu Yunfei then stuffed the remaining 400 or so sniper rifles into the 9th Infantry Regiment.

He also called Zhou Daxing to his side and told him to train hard to become a precision shooter.

In order to use the shooter's superb shooting skills to strike high-value targets of the Japanese invaders in subsequent operations.

If we perform well in the battle against the Japanese invaders, then such combat experience needs to be promoted throughout the army.

Wu Sizhong carefully wrote down Chu Yunfei's request and decided to conduct targeted training as soon as possible.

As for Huang Baitao, he brought a guard platoon and returned to Sichuan.

Continue recruiting new soldiers.

Time flies quickly in the busy life.

In the blink of an eye, another three days passed.

Chu Yunfei handed the report in his hand to Zhao Pengcheng who was standing beside him: "This is the number of soldiers that the base is currently expected to recruit. You should also write it down so that you can answer it in case I need to ask about it later."

"Yes!"

Zhao Pengcheng has been following Chu Yunfei for nearly three months, and now he is getting more and more adept at using it.

As for Li Jingzhong.

As soon as Chen Feng took office as deputy head and supervisor, he followed Chen Feng as a guard.

As for whether he can become a successful person, Chu Yunfei is not sure, but at least he has the potential.

Will he die on the battlefield?

Chu Yunfei didn’t know either.

[Current estimated tax capacity increased to 80%, base construction module upgraded]

[The current base construction module has been successfully upgraded, and a new stability display panel has been added]

[The output of resources in the current base's pillar industries increased by 5%]

Chu Yunfei's consciousness quickly immersed in the sub-module of base construction.

Sure enough, there were some subtle changes in the template in front of him.

Current population: 362 million

[Estimated GDP: 10503 million (French currency)]

[Current estimated total annual revenue: 2014 million (French currency)]

Current tax capacity: 80%

[The current estimated number of recruits is: 17 (37)]

[Current base development rating: 12 (out of )]

[Current pillar industries of the base area: tobacco industry; mining industry;]

Current literacy rate: 46%

[Current stability: 78%]

[Special: Increase the base's pillar industry resources by 5%]

[Current base construction sub-module upgrade requirements: 1. Find a new pillar industry for the current base; 2. Stabilize the stability above 70%]

How exactly does it add up to a 5% increase in the base's pillar resources?

The dog fucking system is not explained clearly.

I don’t know whether it is production efficiency, processing efficiency, or output.

If the mineral reserves increase by 5 percent
That's fucking awesome.

Although Chu Yunfei didn't understand what had increased for a while.

However, the total output value of southeastern Shanxi has indeed increased visibly.

Because it requires a large-scale reconstruction.

The gross domestic product has also increased significantly.

All materials for reconstruction need to be produced, even if by indigenous methods, as long as they are within the scope of the tax agency.

All are required to pay tax at a rate of 10%.

Although it sounds a bit outrageous, it is compared with the heavy taxes and levies collected by Yan Laoxi before, and even compared with most areas of the Republic of China at that time, as well as the Japanese-occupied areas.

The southeastern Shanxi region is simply a paradise on earth and can even be called a model region.

And on this basis.

The national currency income has also increased significantly.

Taxes are collected monthly, and last month the public treasury revenue of the entire southeastern Shanxi region only increased by 1.2 million.

And all of it has been spent this month, barely enough to cover current expenses.

If it weren't for Chiang Kai-shek's money, Chu Yunfei wouldn't have known how he could have survived.

Perhaps we could try to get some loans from the Shanxi Rural Development Bank, which Kong Yongzhi had sent people to open in various rural areas of Changzhi.

Chu Yunfei touched his chin and thought secretly.

His fingers quickly wrote and drew in front of him.

Currently, the main sources of funds are mainly four aspects.

First, Chu Yunfei will not change the autonomous taxation in the southeastern Shanxi region, and he does not plan to change it.

We are already on the front line in the fight against the enemy. If the taxation is too heavy, we will be worse than the Japanese. What will the people think?
Second, the Soviets.

Apart from the free aid provided by the Soviets during the ice breaking process.

The annual foreign trade amount is basically fixed.

It is unrealistic to expand tobacco production many times in a short period of time.

If we can double the planted area and increase the total output by 45% in a year, it will be considered a success.

But there was one advantage to doing business with the Soviets.

The Soviets had previously promised Chu Yunfei to pay one year in advance.

This means that the Soviets will pay in advance for the next year after the tobacco is exported, and the aid list will be updated in real time. Chu Yunfei can also ask the Soviets to produce weapons and equipment suitable for him, just like he made corresponding requests to the Americans.

It's just that he didn't do it.

About 1.2 million US dollars is basically enough to replenish supplies such as anti-aircraft guns and bullets.

If you want to buy any better weapons, the Soviets will not give them to you, and you can't buy them.

As for wanting to buy some cheap light industrial production equipment from the Soviets.

have to.

Even the giant Soviet Union was lame in developing its own light industry.

One million dollars can't buy anything in heavy industry.

It is basically able to maintain the use of existing Soviet weapons and equipment, and it is difficult to continue to expand.

If it breaks, it will basically be thrown away, if the Soviets are willing to produce PPS submachine guns themselves later.

Chu Yunfei may further promote the cooperation between the two sides.

The third aspect.

Friendly aid has been consumed.

At present, the fourth batch of aid to the Republic of China, which is also the third batch of aid to Chu Yunfei’s troops, has not yet been negotiated.

Zhang and Yu are already in place.

Chu Yunfei himself was not sure what the negotiation would turn out to be like.

I hope these two big Buddha statues can be sold at a good price.

Chu Yunfei also sold out the regimental-level tactical thinking.

Next we will sell the tactics and fighting methods of infantry squads at the battalion, company, and platoon levels.

And allow Americans to go to the company to train and observe at the same time.

Three months is enough time for Americans to learn most of it.

Infantry units fighting.

Tactics require adapting to local conditions and the times.

To be precise, it is a suitable one.

Infantry tactics of countries such as Britain, Japan, France, Germany, and even Poland, Norway, and the Soviet Union.

Chu Yunfei has dabbled in all of them.

Americans study and return to school.

But no matter how much they plagiarize, they still have to develop a set of tactical theories and infantry command systems that suit them.

The reason why Chu Yunfei was willing to sell himself out completely.

It's nothing more than confidence that the Americans can study the tactics of his subordinates more thoroughly.

On the battlefield.

Chu Yunfei was still able to take out their headquarters with incredible precision.

But this time I can’t sell myself for a good price.

Then next time, Chu Yunfei will continue to sell out the large-scale tactical ideas and tactical thinking that he has researched, and by the way, he will also have to sell his own body.

The thought of this.

Chu Yunfei thought of the Song family.

The Chen family has already made some effort to help him recover the four million.

Kong Yongzhi also promised to transport 12 million national currency worth of arms and the purchased anti-aircraft guns to southeastern Shanxi.

Counting the days, another half a month has passed.

Still no movement.

Damn, my blood pressure is rising.

Chu Yunfei immediately stood up and tore the paper in his hand into pieces.

It's unlikely to rely on this old man Kong Yongzhi to be self-aware, so we still have to urge him.

Walking towards the confidential room, Chu Yunfei decided to give this old man some more eye drops.

North China Front Army Headquarters.

Mijiro Umezu finally received the notice from the Tokyo headquarters.

The former commander of the North China Front Army, Michijiro Umezu, was relieved of his post and transferred back to China.

Former Army Minister, Sugiyama Gen was transferred to serve as commander of the North China Front Army.

At the same time, the commander of the Mongolian troops was removed from his post.

Sugiyama Moto will serve concurrently as this position.

Okabe Naosaburo, former chief of staff of the North China Front Army, was transferred to become the commander of the 1st Division of the Kwantung Army, responsible for suppressing the anti-Japanese armed forces in Heilongjiang.

The Chief of Staff of the North China Front Army was Yamashita Tomoyuki, the former commander of the 40th Brigade.

The former commander of the 109th Division, Lieutenant General in the Reserve, Shigemasa Yamaoka, was transferred back to the country.

The commander of the 109th Division was Anami Korechika, a former aide-de-camp to the Emperor.

The First Army.

Lin Canghui, former intelligence colonel, was promoted to major general of intelligence in the North China Front Army and took over Kita Seiichi's intelligence work.

As for the old devil Kita Seiichi, he was concentrating on establishing a so-called puppet regime in North China.

In 38, the autonomous governments, maintenance associations, provisional governments, and anti-communist governments of the five provinces in North China were accelerated to be incorporated into the Provisional Government of the Puppet Republic of China, and the task of piecing together the Japanese puppet regime and establishing the Japanese puppet rule was initially completed.

But judging from the specific situation and progress achieved so far.

The existence of the puppet regime did not bring any advantages to the Japanese army's rule over North China.

Instead, it became a burden to them.

It was not until Wang Zhaoming sent a telegram announcing his treason and surrendering to the enemy that the Japanese army finally saw the dawn of the end of the war.

Then came a total annihilation with a single blow.

at this point.

The Tokyo Imperial Headquarters and the Japanese wartime cabinet had to make large-scale adjustments and reshuffles in the positions of the entire North China Front Army.

Give an explanation to the current Japanese people.

At the same time, they were stubborn in the international community and refused to admit their defeat, believing that this was a great victory against the Kuomintang troops in southeastern Shanxi.

These well-known international news agencies did not give the Japanese army a chance to refute.

Havas Agency.

Reuters, United Press International and other newspapers in many countries are

just.

What Umezu Mijiro was waiting for was not harsh criticism from the Japanese locusts.

Instead, they hoped that he could return to the Tokyo headquarters and further share his combat experience with Chu Yunfei's troops.

It also promoted further military reforms in the Japanese army and even promoted the production and development of corresponding weapons.

This telegram.

This made Mijiro Umezu, who was already at the lowest point in his life, burst into tears.

At least, the responsibility and sense of honor he had shown before won the respect of Tianhuang and Japanese military and political leaders.

"General..."

After seeing the telegram, Major General Naosaburo Okabe might soon be promoted to lieutenant general.

His mood was a little complicated.

Whether it is Terauchi Juichi or Umezu Mijiro.

Both of their commands are the best options based on the current situation.

However, they met Chu Yunfei, whose tactics and strategy were not on the same level as theirs.

How can we not fail?

After they reviewed.

The Japanese army only then discovered the great battle taking place in the southeastern part of Shanxi.

Almost every move they made was within Chu Yunfei's calculations.

Even the North China Front Army's desperate attack later.

This was also within Chu Yunfei's consideration, and he made corresponding tactical adjustments at the first opportunity.

This made people like Naosaburo Okabe feel powerless.

Meijin Mijiro patted his shoulder and said, "Do our final work and wait for our colleagues to arrive. We will share our combat experience with them and hope that they can win the war for our brother country."

"Hayi..."
