Chapter 294: On the Eve of the Far East Storm, the Magnificent Waves Beneath the Silence
However, Wei Dayong's words reminded Li Yunlong that his son was already one year old, and as an old comrade, Ding Wei had to express his opinion.
He is Lee Seung-ri's uncle, so he can't come empty-handed. Wouldn't that be rude?
Just give us a tank company. It’s not too much if we have more, and it’s not too little if we have less.
Which army would not envy the Sui-re-cha Military Region, which is well-equipped and has sufficient firepower. It not only has various cannons and howitzers, but also planes and tanks.
Someone has already submitted an application to the headquarters to arrange for cadres to study in the Suirecha Military Region.
Spread the spark of armored warfare and air combat throughout the army to enhance the cohesion and combat effectiveness of the troops.
Not to mention the friendly forces, even the Seventh Route and a Half Army wanted to arrange for officers to go to Ding Wei's Armored Forces Training School for further studies.
There are several good places to learn armored warfare, such as Germany and the Soviet Union, which are definitely the places with the best theory and the most experience in armored warfare.
The key point is that Dezi is no longer popular. If you want to study in the Soviet Union, you need to have connections and conditions.
As a second choice, coming to Ding Wei is also a good option.
He couldn't handle Ding Wei and complained to Zhong Zhicheng.
"It's strange. Our friendly forces have arranged officers to go to Wucheng to learn tank combat. I suspect they are secretly colluding, but unfortunately there is no evidence."
Old Zhong laughed, the officers of the Eighth Route Army and the officers of the Seventh and a Half Route Army might actually be the same group of people.
Even if they were not from the same group, many of Mr. Fu's subordinates had absorbed the ideas of communism.
"You can learn theoretical courses anywhere, just buy a book and find some information. But practical skills really need to be acquired in our Suirecha Military Region."
"Japanese tanks 95/97, Soviet tanks T26/T34/BT-7, besides going to the Soviet Union to study, the best place to go is Wucheng."
In addition, the production capacity of Wucheng's tank factory continued to increase. In the first half of last year, it only exported 10 tanks.
In the first month of this year, five tank prototypes were already produced. The perfection of the production line was not achieved overnight, and there were still some technical problems after the original production line was moved here.
For example, there was a requirement that parts needed to be cleaned with water from the Volga River. After asking Soviet technicians, we found out that their factory was right next to the Volga River.
This is a technical problem, and there is also the issue of raw materials. The various metals needed need to be extracted from minerals. The required steel materials also need to be smelted in furnaces.
It involves multiple steps including mining, smelting, casting, processing, and production.
Only when all the links are connected can tanks be produced continuously. Materials are fed in here and tanks are produced there, forming a real production line.
Due to poor industrial capacity and weak foundation, the accumulation process is bound to be long and arduous.
There are many difficulties, but we will overcome them. This year we hope to achieve a monthly production of 5 to 10 tanks. By the end of the year, we may be able to produce fast tanks.
The tanks produced by the military factory must be distributed equally to various troops for use, and Ding Wei cannot take them all.
If you want to drive a tank, you must first have someone who can drive a tank. Without armored soldiers, what armored weapons can you apply for?
So the coincidence that Ding Wei saw occurred at the beginning of the year. Several military regions organized young cadres to study in Wucheng.
This is a good thing. It can improve the brother units and increase their combat effectiveness. Why not do it?
But it is not free, you have to pay for it. Organizations also need to develop and operate, there is no such thing as a free lunch.
"This Ding Wei actually asked me for tuition."
Commander Liu looked at the telegram sent by Ding Wei with a smile, and took it to complain to the boss.
"I think what he said is right. There is no such thing as free knowledge. The idea of retaining three out of ten is a good one. It not only ensures that each military region has the seeds of armored troops, but also provides a steady supply of fresh students to Suirecha."
Commander Liu was not just making a complaint; he wanted to document the incident as a fact and help Ding Wei make it happen.
What does it mean? Ten people come to study, and three of them will stay in the Suirecha Military Region.
Teaching is not free, it is just a matter of numbers.
Otherwise, where would we calculate the costs for fuel and tank wear and tear?
Even brothers have to settle accounts clearly, and the organization’s money has to be accounted for penny by penny.
Don't take advantage, but don't suffer any loss either.
Is Ding Wei the one who suffers the loss?
Zhang Dabiao and Gao Qing arrived in Tongliao. The car sped along the road, and there were checkpoints along the way.
Almost bordering the Japanese division, both sides set up defenses on the plain.
It was just that the Japanese were even more exaggerated, placing many stakes to block the tanks and prevent the tanks from coming in from the Sui-Re-Cha military region.
Both the T34 and BT-7 are stronger than the Japanese medium tanks. The tanks with thin skin and large fillings are likely to be penetrated by the 12.7mm heavy machine guns.
Type 95, Type 97 and even other armored vehicles simply cannot compete with Soviet tanks.
On the other hand, Ding Wei maintained an offensive posture and was ready to launch another offensive at any time with just a command.
The ceasefire agreement between the two sides is not binding at all.
They are all waiting. The Japs are waiting for new changes to see if there will be any turning point in the European battlefield. Ding Wei is waiting for the Far Eastern Army and for the Russians to end the war in Europe.
Today is February 45, 2. There seems to be no turning point in the European battlefield. Before the New Year, both sides still had the strength to fight, and Germany seemed to still have an army of over a million, so there was still room for struggle.
But as soon as the counterattack began, they suffered successive defeats and were unable to stop the Soviet tank flood.
Ding Wei also brought out several battles of the counterattack and shared them with the three column commanders.
"In terms of tank quality alone, the Soviet Union is far inferior to the Germans, but sometimes quantity far outweighs quality. Large-scale deep-range and large-scale troop operations are what we should learn from and refer to."
If you don’t have a car, you can rely on your legs.
Legs may not be faster than wheels. In special terrain, two legs can also work miracles.
During the rest period before and after the New Year, Ding Wei was thinking about how to take over the most important cities and industrial areas when the Far East storm came.
How to stop the millions of troops of the Far East Army?
The kind father was not a good person. He decided to send troops to the Far East not to fight against the Japanese invaders, but to target the industrial equipment in Manchuria.
To put it nicely, it is a victory trophy; to put it bluntly, it is robbery.
With the strength of the Ding Weisui Recha Military Region, it is impossible to withstand the Far Eastern Army of over one million. Once the war in Europe is over, a large number of Soviet and Red soldiers with rich combat experience will be transferred from the European battlefield.
There were also T34 tanks and a large number of aircraft joining the battle to sweep away the Kwantung Army.
As someone who has traveled through time, there is no need to talk much about this matter. It is something that is bound to happen.
The trend is irreversible and it is difficult to change the outcome.
Ding Wei had two ideas. The first was to attack the Kwantung Army together with the Far East Army and seize the supplies as quickly as possible.
He took a part for himself and the Far East Army took a part. With the 30 troops in the Sui-Re-Cha Military Region and the fact that it was located behind the Kwantung Army, he would have the opportunity to get most of the supplies.
This is a way of thinking: keep as much as you can grab.
Second, strengthen the defense line of Xing'an Mountains, and firmly grasp the line of Daxing'an Mountains on the basis of the Japanese fortress. Gather troops on the Hulunbuir line to maintain the threat to the Siberian Railway.
By threatening its logistics lines, it broke off relations with the Far East Army.
How to choose is a big problem.
