Chapter 318 The shock of the Sixty Army! An Enpu, the commander of the 60th Army with only more than 10,000 men left, looked at the equipment piled up in the training ground in front of him and remained silent for a long time. If he had had this equipment before, he was sure that he would have beaten the Japanese army to pieces. If those people in the mountain city could not treat them differently, he guaranteed that they would not have any different intentions. If supplies can be in place, he guarantees that he will fight to the end. His Sixty Army is not a coward. The Yunnan Army is not a coward. The reason why Cun Yunsheng agreed to join the Nanyang Task Force was that the other party promised to supply him with the weapons and equipment he needed. In fact, he had also imagined that the 60th Army, fully equipped with beautiful weapons, must be very powerful in combat. Even if you can't fully equip all of them, one division will do.

No matter how bad it is, it’s okay to give it to both groups. This is already a very humble request. Staying in Kunming has no future at all. They are all watched closely by the Central Army and cannot make any small moves. And there have been rumors several times that the generals will be changed on the spot. Based on various circumstances, An Enpu felt that he could come to Annan to try his luck for the future. Unexpectedly, as soon as I arrived in Bangkok, I was shocked by the equipment in front of me. Looking around, there are a dazzling array of guns and ammunition everywhere, all piled up in front of the training ground. Not far away, there is a pile of food and other items. "Oh my god? So many guns? And food?" The officers nearby said in shock like bumpkins. After saying that, they couldn't help but walked towards the box, opened the box, picked up a rifle, and turned their heads to look at Cun Yunsheng, who came to receive them. "Sir Cun? Is this beautiful equipment?" "It also has to be fine art equipment. The workmanship is very sophisticated." Hearing this, Cun Yunsheng said with a smile. "The shooting accuracy of the Springfield rifle is not bad, but it is a single-shot rifle, which is only slightly better than the Hanyang one you have." Cun Yunsheng said casually. "Huh? Isn't this good enough?" An officer touched the Springfield rifle and asked doubtfully. For them, this is already a good weapon. They don't even have many official rifles. Not to mention the Garand semi-automatic rifle.

"Semi-automatic rifle?" What kind of weapon is this? Everyone was stunned for a while subconsciously! But that doesn't matter now, as long as you have weapons. "You don't have to fire the gun once, pull the bolt once, pull the trigger and shoot. When the bullets are out, the magazine will automatically eject. Of course, the recoil is a bit strong, but everything else is fine." "Isn't that similar to a submachine gun?" An Enpu felt that the soldiers might not understand this explanation, but if you talk about submachine guns, they would understand. Sure enough, many officers suddenly realized when they heard something similar to a submachine gun. "Oh, it's a submachine gun. In that case, I understand." "Hey, isn't it just a submachine gun? I'm familiar with this." "I didn't expect that each of us now has a submachine gun. It's really heroic." "Yes, in this case, wouldn't our firepower be very powerful?" A group of officers stared at the Garand semi-automatic gun in front of them and kept swallowing their saliva. "Yes, your Sichuan regiment is so rich that you all have rifles like this." "Sir, can you let us try?" an officer asked. "Okay, let me demonstrate it to you guys." As he said that, Cun Yunsheng picked up the Garand semi-automatic rifle and pulled the trigger at the big tree in the distance. Boom, boom, boom! Boom, boom, boom! Within a few seconds, the magazine was empty again. Everyone was so scared that they couldn't help but swallow their saliva. This was too powerful. Cun Yunsheng felt that it was not enough, so he loaded another magazine and continued to fire in the distance. "Is this a rifle?" "Why does it feel different?" "Yeah, this firepower is too brutal." "As expected of a weapon made by foreigners, it is indeed powerful." "Yeah, this is much more powerful than the fire sticks we have." "Yes, aren't all rifles single-shot? How can they shoot continuously?" "Didn't you notice? The accuracy of this gun is very scary?" "This is much more powerful than a submachine gun."

"No, if there are a few of these, they will be much more powerful than our light machine guns." A group of officers behind him were discussing in a hurry. Even An Enpu had to admit that the fine equipment was indeed much more powerful than the fire sticks in their hands. "It's just a semi-automatic rifle, not as powerful as you brag about." After the shooting was over, Cun Yunsheng said casually. If it were a fully automatic rifle, he might give it a higher look, but for a semi-automatic rifle, that's all. The only advantage is that the shooting accuracy of this gun is really good. But as An Enpu said, if there are too many explanations, these people really don’t understand anything. It is better to explain to them in the simplest language. "There are almost 20,000 people with equipment here, which should be able to meet your reorganization needs." As soon as Cun Yunsheng finished speaking, An Enpu quickly explained. "Sir Cun, is this too much? The 60th Army only has more than 10,000 people. 20,000 people is really too many." Hearing this, Cun Yunsheng said with a smile. "Aren't you organized into an army? Normally, an army must have at least 30,000 people." ah? An Enpu was stunned for a moment. What the hell. An army of thirty thousand men? Isn't this too scary? As a result, Cun Yunsheng's next words made him shocked and speechless. "According to the standards of the US military, a corps with tank regiments, artillery regiments, air defense regiments, etc. needs 50,000 people." "This is just the first batch of equipment. When the personnel arrive one after another, the equipment will be delivered." An Enpu was completely stunned at this moment. An army of fifty thousand men? Just leave it to him? Are you really relieved? Even if the other party will arrange some officers among them, it will be fine. It would be strange if no one was arranged. "Why is it too little?" Cun Yunsheng thought the other party was too little. An army of fifty thousand people is quite a lot.

You must know that his fourth uncle's 12th Division only has 30,000 soldiers. Forehead! It does seem to be a little missing. There are three divisions in one army. "Fifty thousand people for the time being. We will continue to add more later and try to get it to 60,000 people." Before An Enpu could speak, Cun Yun added another sentence. "Ah? It's quite a lot. It's quite a lot. In fact, I think 30,000 people is too much." An Enpu quickly explained. Even though there were three divisions before, after the depletion, there were only more than 10,000 people left. This still added a group of new recruits, otherwise it would be even less. Does he want to preserve his strength? He really didn't think about this at first. When fighting the Japanese troops, they would just rush forward with howls and screams. Even though an entire company was sacrificed, he never frowned. But as I continued to fight, I felt something was wrong. Just let them fight, but where are the supplies? Where are the reinforcements? Nothing. What else is there to fight? Now that he heard what Cun Yunsheng said, he was indeed moved. "With so many people, the consumption of ammunition alone is an astronomical figure." An Enpu said worriedly. "Don't worry, don't worry about ammunition or anything. The only thing is that if my people find someone reselling weapons and equipment, they must be dealt with according to military law." Cun Yunsheng felt that he had to make it clear to these people. Hearing this, An Enpu patted his chest and promised. "Please rest assured, Commander Cun. If anyone dares to resell ordnance, if they are caught, I will kill them myself without you having to do anything." With these words, Cun Yunsheng naturally felt more at ease, and then handed over a list of weapons. "So many artillery pieces?" An Enpu took a breath. If the equipment of the previous 20,000 people were only light weapons. Now after seeing the complete list, An Enpu felt that he had been hasty. A total of five hundred mortars of various calibers. You must know that mortars are in the hands of a mixed army, and almost every regiment only has one or two mortars. Now there are five hundred mortars, which is really scary. Not only that, there are also 105mm howitzers, 155mm howitzers, etc.

It's almost time to form a military howitzer regiment. The result? This is only the divisional artillery regiment. With such terrifying firepower, it is no wonder that the Sichuan Army can win battles repeatedly. Such powerful firepower can only be achieved by a former German weapon master. Now his motley army is about to have firepower comparable to that of the Central Army, and that firepower is absolutely brutal. Even if you meet a kid head-on now, you can still be tough. "Let me change my clothes." Cun Yunsheng waved his hand and said. "Yes." An Enpu responded immediately. Soon, these weapons were distributed and the weapons were replaced according to the establishment. "After you receive the weapons, you must become familiar with them as soon as possible. It won't be long before you go to fight the little devils. I don't want you to die because you don't know how to use the weapons in your hands. Do you understand me clearly?" Looking at the 60th Army in front of him who was changing equipment, Cun Yunsheng reminded him. "yes." A neat sound echoed throughout the training ground. After changing the equipment, morale was high again. They did not expect that one day they would be treated like the Central Army. "Hey, is this a Yankee's submachine gun? It's the first time I've seen it." "Yeah, it's much easier to use than our old socket." "Yes, I heard that you can use up twenty bullets in one shot. It's such a luxury." "That's right, before we did, each of us didn't have thirty rounds of ammunition." This sentence resonates with many people. Those who can possess twenty rounds of ammunition are veterans, and they are all very good at marksmanship. It would be good if the new recruits had five rounds of ammunition. They were more likely to serve as transport troops, helping the veterans carry their luggage. Like this, no matter whether they were new soldiers or veterans, it was the first time they had encountered a situation where everyone came up with a gun and three hundred rounds of ammunition. Not to mention that each person should carry at least five grenades, and those with strong strength can carry more. "This is the Central Army? Is this our direct lineage? This treatment is so good, no wonder people look down on us." "That's right, I look down on my old self now. What kind of equipment did we have before? I can't stand it anymore." "Yeah, it's not surprising that people look down on us, look at what they eat." This sentence speaks to everyone's heart.

You must know that since arriving in Bangkok, their daily diet is rice, fat meat, eggs, etc. The intensity of the food is several times stronger than before. "Okay, just say a few words. From now on, we are the Central Army, direct descendants. Don't look down on yourself. Kill the Japanese and repay the commander's love." Although An Enpu felt a little uncomfortable hearing it, it was hard to say anything. After all, what they say is true. Only Meng Fangliao knew. When did the Central Army also have such equipment? What a joke. The fine art equipment given by Stilwell didn't include many howitzers. After all, it's not that convenient to transport this thing by transport plane. At most, it's just a 120mm heavy mortar. Seeing everyone talking about weapons and equipment, Cun Yunsheng couldn't suppress the smile on his lips, but he didn't forget that he came here for something important. "Commander An, after the 60th Army's re-equipment is completed, immediately set off for Badi. Your mission is to exterminate the local guerrillas and appease the natives. As for the missing soldiers, I will replenish them all within a month. ” "Of course, if Commander An has any suitable candidates, such as candidates from the old department, etc., you can recommend them. Now the Nanyang Task Force needs a large number of experienced officers." Previously, due to the problem of insufficient troops, he did not send troops to the southern areas of Annan, including the Badi area. After all, there are only more than 20,000 people in hand, and so many places are mainly guarded by troops. I couldn't keep an eye on him at all, but that's different now. With the addition of the 60th Army, we can finally have our hands free. An Enpu really didn't expect that Cun Yunsheng would be so generous and willing to let him install his old subordinates. Compared with the mountain city, this is simply a world of difference. "I will write to the old troops and ask them to go south as soon as possible. In addition, I suggest that the soldiers can write letters and recruit some people from the same village to go south. I heard that Chief Cun has a plan to divide the fields and houses? I don't know what our plan is. Can the officers and soldiers of the 60th Army join?" An Enpu said. Hearing this, Cun Yunsheng was stunned. He really didn't expect that An Enpu would actually propose it, which really surprised him. You know, he originally meant to take his time. When the officers and soldiers of his Sichuan Army got benefits from this plan, there must be someone in the 60th Army who couldn't help it. Even if An Enpu and the others were unwilling, they would not be able to overcome the opinions of their subordinates. After all, mutiny is not impossible. "Of course you can. The 60th Army is also part of the Nanyang Task Force, so it's natural." Cun Yunsheng said with a smile on his face. "When Commander An arrives in Badi, he must capture these important places. There is a large amount of oil buried underground here. I hope no one will know about it by then." Hearing this, An Enpu was stunned and looked at him doubtfully. "Those natives?"

"What indigenous people? It's just a primitive forest with no people at all." Cun Yunsheng said meaningfully. "Yes, I promise to complete the task." An Enpu's heart tightened. Sure enough, the young man in front of him was not as kind as he seemed. Too! If he is not cruel, why should Stilwell value the other party? Is it because the other party is young? As for killing or injuring some natives? Isn't this normal? In the suppression of guerrillas, there were more or less accidental casualties. Say it again! Who can be sure that these indigenous people are not guerrillas? (End of chapter)
