Bright Sword: Rebirth of Kong Jie

Li Yunlong and Ding Wei nodded, without expressing any doubt about this.

The Eighth Route Army soldiers are determined to fight. As long as they receive regular military training and have strong combat effectiveness, there is no doubt about it.

Including the new recruits in the army, they are basically drawn from the militia or local military forces after training.

Once such troops are equipped with sophisticated equipment, there is no doubt that their combat effectiveness will increase dramatically.

In the words of Li Yunlong, if every soldier in our New Second Regiment was given a light machine gun, once we went into the battlefield, our combat effectiveness would be so great that even if there were ten times as many Japanese as we could kill, they would not be enough for us to kill.

I'm not exaggerating.

Battles have always been like this, under the crushing of absolute firepower configuration.

Including when the Japanese army was fighting against the National Army on the front battlefield, why did the Central Army, which was capable of fighting, lose all its weapons and suffer repeated defeats?

The main reason is precisely the Japanese army's absolute advantage in equipment, artillery and air firepower.

As soon as the battle began.

The Japanese artillery shells fell like raindrops, the fighter planes that had absolute air supremacy roared madly, and the bombers continued to carry out air strikes.

How can we fight this kind of battle?

In wars during the era of hot weapons, the disparity in equipment was too great to be narrowed by human lives.

Therefore, in the battles on the front battlefield, the Japanese army often inflicted heavy damage on the national army with smaller casualties.

This was exactly what Kong Jie was thinking. He wanted to use this absolutely elite steel helmet troop to crush the Japanese army even if they were of the same size.

only……

“Such an elite force has a huge demand for equipment and ammunition.

It is basically impossible to build such a large-scale elite combat force with the current conditions of our Eighth Route Army."

Ding Wei directly pointed out the key point.

If the Eighth Route Army had sufficient resources, who wouldn't want to build the entire regiment into a well-equipped elite force?

Kong Jie said: "There are always more solutions than problems. It is precisely because our troops have limited resources that I think we should concentrate our resources to build similar elite troops. Even if they are small in number, they can be used as a sharp knife on the cutting edge.

Achieve unexpected results at critical moments.

The key to success is not quantity but quality.

As long as we develop slowly and continue to accumulate resources, the number of elite steel helmet soldiers will definitely increase, if one day the entire regiment is transformed into such an elite force.

What's so scary about the little devils?"

"The entire regiment is built into such a well-equipped steel helmet unit!!!" Ding Wei couldn't help but sigh. Old Kong really dared to think so. However, when he raised his head and saw Kong Jie's serious expression, he didn't say anything more in the end.

As for Li Yunlong.

This guy seemed to be more receptive to Kong Jie's advice than Ding Wei.

He had even been thinking about returning to his new Second Regiment and immediately drawing resources from within the regiment to create elite steel helmet soldiers like the Independent Regiment.

Why?

Li Yunlong used to be the deputy commander of an independent regiment. He was deeply touched by the recent changes and exaggerated abilities of his old comrade Kong Jie.

Especially the formation of the independent regiment special operations team.

And Kong Jie’s proposal for special operations tactics.

This directly opened the door to a new world in the military field for Li Yunlong, and he was amazed that war could be conducted in this way.

Therefore, after the New Second Regiment was officially formed, Li Yunlong immediately started to build the special operations team of the New Second Regiment.

At present, the independent regiment has begun to develop elite steel helmet soldiers.

Li Yunlong naturally couldn't fall behind.

The three old comrades then talked about the possible development of the situation.

Ding Wei and Li Yunlong both pointed out the crisis that the independent regiment's base was very likely to face - a retaliatory raid by the Japanese army.

"The Japanese have always been revengeful. After we launch a few attacks, they will immediately launch a few retaliatory raids.

This time we wiped out the Yamazaki Battalion and defeated the Japanese 113th Regiment. I'm afraid the Japanese are going crazy.

A retaliatory sweep against your independent regiment's base could be launched at any time.

Lao Kong, you must be prepared in advance!"

After hearing this, Kong Jie just smiled disapprovingly.

He changed the subject and continued:

"Old Li, Old Ding, don't you think this fight wasn't exciting enough? How about we give him another good fight?"

Li Yunlong, who was afraid of chaos in the world, smiled until his eyes narrowed when he heard this. He immediately urged Kong Jie, "Haha, Lao Kong, have you come up with some new ideas to fight the Japanese? Hurry up and tell me!"

Kong Jie deliberately kept the question in suspense.

"I have a plan. If it goes well, it will surely lead to a more violent retaliatory attack from the Japanese army. Once the battle begins, we will most likely face the main force of the Japanese army.

This is a great and exciting battle.

It is possible that our three regiments will face attacks from Japanese forces that are several or even dozens of times their size!"

goo-dong-

Li Yunlong couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and was also frightened by Kong Jie's words: "Is this true?

I heard that your independent regiment, Lao Kong, has nearly 4000 soldiers.

Lao Ding’s new regiment has nearly 2000 soldiers.

Our new Second Regiment has just been developed, but the size of its forces has also been further expanded, and now has a team of 1500 people.

By this calculation, our three regiments together have about 8000 troops.

If the enemy's military strength is several times, or even dozens of times, that's how many enemy soldiers would there be? ? ?

It's impossible for the Japanese army's several major field divisions to be transferred to attack your independent regiment, right?

Lao Kong, Lao Kong, I'm not making fun of you, but I'm afraid you don't have that much face!"

Ding Wei didn't speak immediately, but the expression on his face showed that he and Li Yunlong had the same idea.

According to Ding Wei's speculation, if the Japanese army launched a retaliatory sweep against the Independent Regiment, the number of troops should be between one and two regiments.

A fully-strength field regiment of the Japanese had more than 3800 troops.

The two field regiments, which is equivalent to an entire Japanese field brigade, had a total strength of nearly 8000 people.

The Japanese have always been arrogant.

With nearly 8000 elite troops, can't they crush a small base of the Eighth Route Army Independent Regiment?

——After all, the Japanese were not clear about the triangular defense system secretly built by the Independent Regiment, the New 1st Regiment and the New 2nd Regiment.

Kong Jie smiled and did not explain immediately. Instead, he shouted to the guard beside him: "Go and get the regiment flag we captured from the devils."

"The team flag???"

Upon hearing this, Li Yunlong and Ding Wei could no longer sit still. They jumped off the kang and looked at Kong Jie in surprise.

"Old Kong, your independent regiment captured the Japanese's regiment flag? Is that true?"
