Start as a young leader, grow bigger and stronger, and create more glory

Unimog trucks are arranged in squads, and whether it is an infantry squad, a machine gun squad, or a mortar squad, there is one truck per squad.

A regiment's infantry squad needs 81 vehicles, a machine gun squad needs 27 vehicles, a mortar squad also needs 27 vehicles, plus three Gatling squads also need three vehicles, an artillery battalion needs 3 vehicles for 3 guns, and the entire Unimog truck regiment needs 36 vehicles.

The battalion's supply company, the regiment's supply battalion, and the artillery battalion's ammunition logistics do not need to closely follow the combat troops, so they need to have a heavy load and a slower speed, totaling 40 CQ261 heavy trucks.

[In fact, a regiment only needs a battalion-level supply company. I have added a regiment-level supply battalion here to provide the MG42 machine guns and automatic rifles with enough ammunition for fire suppression! ]

Adding the two together requires military merit points.

"S!"

Xu Le glanced at his balance again and couldn't help but hold his forehead with both hands: "Damn it, this system is really intentional, it's just enough to fully staff two motorized regiments, not a single cent left!"

"Oh, that's not right! The troops already have 100 Unimogs and 40 CQ261s!"

"Alas, we can't even get three regiments together! Forget it, we can only satisfy the 3th and 666th regiments first. We also have to keep some vehicles for the training of new recruits. This number is really limited!"

...

Finally, Xu Le purchased 300 Unimogs and 80 CQ261s. Excluding the equipment for the two regiments, the remaining 52 Unimogs and 40 CQ261s were handed over to the new recruit regiment for training.

[Ammunition is not worth much, I am too lazy to remember, I have the final say! ]

.....

It took three full days just to distribute vehicles and weapons to the three regiments, and the entire division was busy.

It was not until he was almost done that Xu Le suddenly realized and remembered something!

That is the communication of the troops. The Independent 176th Division, with three fully-staffed regiments and more than 3 people, had only one old telegraph machine. Communication depended entirely on the soldiers of the communication squad running or riding horses.

For example, now, if there is any order to be conveyed between the division headquarters and the 666th Regiment in Zhaozhuang, or if an emergency occurs on one side, the information can only be conveyed by manpower, which greatly delays the opportunity to fight.

Moreover, motorized infantry regiments are highly mobile and need to maintain close communication and coordinate marches at all times.

Achieving wireless communications at the company or even platoon level when fighting on the battlefield will be a great help.

Especially when the front-line infantry is attacking, if they can determine the coordinates of the enemy's firepower points more accurately and contact artillery support through radio, they will be invincible!

Do it as soon as you think of it. Taking advantage of the fact that there are no combat missions now, Xu Le hurriedly opened the system mall and searched for a while before finding the communication section.

SCR-536 walkie-talkie, 200 military merit points.

The wireless phone, which can be carried by a single soldier, weighs only 2.5 kilograms and has a communication distance of 1 to 5 kilometers, depending on the terrain and weather conditions.

"Luckily, I saved 4 military merit points this time, and fortunately, the communication equipment in the system is as cheap as light weapons. This is a walkie-talkie that only the United States can afford! But it can only be used for one-way communication. When one side is talking, the other side can only listen. Or when the other side is talking, this side can only listen. They can't communicate at the same time!"

Xu Le immediately purchased 100 units, which was definitely not enough, but his military merits were limited and he could not use them all.

The battery of the walkie-talkie could only work for one day, but luckily the accessories of the system products were free, so Xu Le directly took out a lot of them for free.

As for the telegraph machine, he didn't even consider it. It was too easy to crack. The Japanese's cracking ability was still very strong, and he didn't want to take the risk.

Anyway, the troops have been motorized, and when they have enough military merit points in the future, they will purchase field base radio equipment and large signal transmitters. By then, wireless communications will be possible over dozens of kilometers, and long-distance communications between the various command posts of the troops will be implemented.

.....

Xu Le handed 100 walkie-talkies to Jiang Feng, who graduated from the Army Academy. He just explained it briefly and the other party understood.

This walkie-talkie is very easy to operate. It has more than 50 frequency bands that can be adjusted. When using it, you only need to unplug the antenna and connect the power, then speak into it, and other walkie-talkies on the same frequency band will be able to hear what you are saying.

Due to limited quantity, it can only be equipped to the platoon-level units of the three regiments for the time being, and each unit can only have one, and the rest will be equally divided among the regiment headquarters.

......

Just when everything was in place, intelligence personnel from the Intelligence Department of the General Staff delivered important information.

The Japanese mobilized a large number of troops, even drawing troops from the front line confronting the National Guard, in preparation for a counterattack on Zhaozhuang.

This development was already expected by everyone. It would have been strange if the Japanese had not come.

Although the Zhaozhuang Iron Mine is small, it produces 250 tons of iron ore per month, which has affected the resource replenishment of the Japanese in Shanxi Province.

"The troops have already completed their initial motorization, so we can use this opportunity to let the soldiers experiment. Commander Jiang, please tell us about the strength of the Japanese!"

"Yes!" Jiang Feng felt that he would definitely live 10 years less, not because of death in battle, but because of exhaustion. He was in charge of all three headquarters. Every day he got up earlier than the chickens and went to bed later than the dogs.

Fortunately, Liu Quanhua had been the chief of staff and had sufficient qualifications, so he simply handed over all the brigade affairs to him.

Even so, he felt that he had lost several pounds recently!

"According to intelligence, the Japanese have drawn troops from three directions, namely Fencheng, Xinjiang and Jishan. They should be trying to encircle Zhaozhuang from the north and south. The troops that can be confirmed are two infantry battalions and a security regiment! If the situation changes during the war, the Japanese will definitely have follow-up preparations, but they won't be too many!

There is no news that the Japanese have armored and cavalry units. Even if there are, there will not be many. Because these troops are concentrated on the front line against the National Guard, the Japanese dare not mobilize them easily! "
