Liang Jian: Lao Li, I'm really not a military expert

Chapter 142: Lao Li, I'm really not a military expert! 3-word chapter! Please support!

Lin Zhenhua didn't expect that he would really become the military expert that Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang talked about. This made him feel at a loss. He quickly objected: "Lao Zhao, Lao Li, the military knowledge I know is not worthy of being in a high-class place. I really don't deserve the title of military expert!"

Li Yunlong slapped the table and made the final decision: "College student, you will be the military expert of our independent regiment from now on. From now on, I will call you a military expert! All the military aspects of our independent regiment are handed over to you. You, the military expert, will be responsible for anything. You can always ask me and Lao Zhao to solve it. If the two of us can't solve it, I will ask the brigade commander to solve it. You can be a military expert in the future and build our independent regiment's arsenal. I hope that one day our independent regiment can produce airplanes, cannons and tanks!"

Zhao Gang followed suit and advised: "College student, you are the only one in our independent regiment who is qualified for this job. You will be the military expert of our independent regiment in the future. I will be responsible for the logistics work, Lao Li will be responsible for military command, and you will be responsible for military production. The three of us will cooperate with each other to build a mechanized iron army for the independent regiment!"

Lin Zhenhua didn't expect Zhao Gang to have such high demands. He also wanted him to build a mechanized force. The proposed mission goal was extremely high, but it really aroused his passion to not admit defeat. He clenched his fists, bumped fists with the other two and said, "Lao Zhao, Lao Li, since you have said so much, I can't back down anymore. I don't want to be a weakling in my own mouth. I will accept this mission. In the next year, I will let you use tanks and armored vehicles. If you can't do it, you will be beaten and punished!"

"But for now, we should first think of a way to repel the Yoshino Regiment. I estimate that the Japanese bombing will only last for one or two days at most and then stop. The Yoshino Regiment will also take this opportunity to attack the Independent Regiment. It just so happens that the tanks and armored vehicles we have captured can come in handy. We can completely use blitzkrieg to deal with the Japanese!"

"The Third Reich previously achieved an unprecedented victory through blitzkrieg, and we can use this to our advantage. We have no way of gaining air superiority now, so we must launch a blitzkrieg before the arrival of the Japanese fighter planes or after they leave. The speed must be fast and the firepower must be fierce. Only in this way can we defeat the Yoshino Regiment in one fell swoop!"

"Lao Li, Lao Zhao, it's more than 30 miles from Zhangzhuang to our frontline position. It will take more than four hours for the Yoshino Regiment to arrive at the battlefield. We only need to send out tanks and armored vehicles to launch a blitzkrieg here. This place is flat and there are no trees or rocks around to block the view. This is the best battlefield."

"I plan to install two more machine guns on the Japanese tanks, and one more on the top of the armored vehicle, so that the firepower can be greatly enhanced. In addition, we have eight trucks that can be used in our base, and we will all mount machine guns on them. I will install a steel plate in front of the car, so that it can withstand the Japanese bullets."

"There is still a lot of armored steel left from the arsenal. I plan to add a layer of protection to the outside of the Japanese armored vehicles and tanks. This will greatly improve their survivability on the battlefield!"

"As long as we choose the right time, we can definitely defeat the Yoshino Corps in one fell swoop and resolve the predicament of the base!"

Li Yunlong did not agree directly. He planned to go and check out the terrain himself today. He picked up the pencil on the table, circled the empty space, and said carefully: "College student, no, now I should call a military expert. I will go to this place today to explore the terrain. You guys should hurry up and modify the tanks and armored vehicles. If it is consistent with what you said, then we will have a head-on confrontation with the Japanese here, defeat the Yoshino Regiment head-on, and solve the dilemma of the base in one fell swoop!"

Zhao Gang did not say much. Everything would have to wait until Li Yunlong came back from the inspection. "Master, if you need any supplies, just come to me. I will stay at the regiment headquarters today and will definitely do the logistics work for you!"

Since he had the full support of Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang, Lin Zhenhua did not make any hypocritical excuses. He immediately gathered the personnel from the arsenal, brought a variety of tools and materials, transported them to the front-line positions by trucks, and began to fully modify the two tanks and six armored vehicles overnight. He was busy until lunch time the next day when he finally completed the modification of the tanks and armored vehicles.

After lunch, they began to modify the car, preparing to transform it into an armored vehicle. Even the tires were equipped with steel plates for protection, which could completely withstand the Japanese's 6.5mm bullets.

Under the command of Lin Zhenhua, they worked until the early morning of the next day before they finally completed the modification of all eight trucks. Even the two machine guns were fixed on the roof of the carriages.

Li Yunlong has not been idle these two days. He has conducted a detailed survey of the terrain and location of the open space. He even spent a long time considering the location to launch the attack. They only have one chance for this armored assault. Once they miss the opportunity, when the Japanese react, the ambush troops will most likely be surrounded by the Japanese.

Once the Japanese seize the opportunity and counterattack the Independent Regiment, it is very likely that they will break through the defense line established by the Independent Regiment in one fell swoop and drive straight into the hinterland of the Independent Regiment. At that time, the Independent Regiment will really have only one way to break out, otherwise it will face the danger of annihilation!

It was for this reason that Li Yunlong did not support this adventurous action at the beginning. After all, he had not seen the power of blitzkrieg, and he had only heard Lin Zhenhua's narration about it. Moreover, the counterattack launched by the Third Reich was assisted by the Air Force. Once the enemy gained air superiority, tanks would be just large targets and would not be able to withstand the bombing of enemy bombers!

That night, the three of them gathered at the front line. The Japanese had stopped their bombing the day before, allowing the three of them to breathe a sigh of relief.

Li Yunlong pointed at the location on the open space and said, "This place is just like what the college student said. If the Japanese are attacked here, they won't even have a place to hide. As long as we can resolve the battle within half an hour and clean up the battlefield in another half an hour, we can evacuate the battlefield before the Japanese fighter planes arrive!"

"College student, whether we can win this battle depends on you. I will play the supporting role this time and let you be the protagonist. You must defeat the Yoshino United within half an hour. You can ask for any conditions you want. As long as they can be met, I will satisfy them all!"

Zhao Gang also expressed his opinion: "College students, you can pick any of our independent regiment's members, even their weapons. Lao Li and I have only one request, which is that the battle must be over in half an hour, not even a minute more. Can you do it?"

Lin Zhenhua felt the pressure doubled. He began to think about whether there were any loopholes in the previous plan. He also wondered whether the modified armored forces could take on the heavy responsibility. After thinking quietly for ten minutes, he said, "Lao Zhao, Lao Li, I am willing to issue a military order to eliminate the Yoshino Regiment within half an hour!"

"But I also have a few conditions, and I need your full cooperation. This time I am going to use the wealth of our independent group, so please don't feel bad!"

Lin Zhenhua made a joke, he wanted to ease the tense atmosphere, but Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang didn't laugh, which made him feel a little boring. He turned the topic to business and said seriously: "The first requirement is to concentrate the submachine guns of the whole regiment and form a commando team to follow behind the armored unit to protect the safety of the armored unit. The infantry must kill the Japanese who may pose a threat to the armored unit as soon as possible, and never let them get close to the armored unit with explosive packs!"

"The second requirement is to take out all our rocket stocks and use them all at once to destroy the enemy's artillery units. The enemy's artillery units pose too great a threat to armored vehicles and armored trucks. They must be destroyed as soon as the battle breaks out. Currently, the only weapon we have that can do this is rocket launchers."

"The third requirement is that Lao Li must lead the troops to stop the Japanese from fleeing. When Yoshino Masao finds out that something is wrong, he will definitely evacuate immediately. Lao Li, you must set up a blocking position here and resist the fierce counterattack of the Japanese. Only in this way can we annihilate most of the Yoshino regiment within half an hour!"

Li Yunlong agreed without any hesitation: "College student, I will play a supporting role this time. I will definitely complete the task you assign to me without compromise. I will lead people to ambush this position in advance. When the battle on your side begins, I will immediately build a blocking position and will never give the Yoshino regiment a chance to escape. This time I want to see how powerful your armored combat theory is. Can you realize your strategy of winning more with less?"

"But I have one thing to remind you. Even though the Yoshino Corps suffered some losses last time, its total strength is still around 3500. You must be careful. After all, even if it is 3500 pigs, it will take a day to catch them. You plan to end the battle in half an hour, which will require a very high firepower density!"

"In addition to all the submachine guns in the regiment, I will also transfer 20 light machine guns to you. The ammunition is unlimited. You can fire as many as you can. We now have more than 30 rounds of various bullets. Even if we fight a positional war with the Yoshino Regiment, we will not be at a disadvantage!"

"In addition, I'm also transferring Wang Chengzhu's artillery company to you to provide you with artillery support. You can fire as many shells as you want this time. If you have the guts, you can use up all the shells in my stockpile. I won't feel bad at all. Everything is for the final victory! As long as we can defeat the Yoshino Company head-on, the Japanese brigade will retreat immediately, and the crisis in our base will be truly resolved. Go ahead and fight boldly. If there's any problem, I'll take care of it for you!"
