Chongqing, North Military Industrial Zone.
Cai Hu was patrolling the canning factory. The canning factory had just installed the equipment and had started production for the third day.
One by one, tin cans of beef appeared on the production line. Cai Hu picked one up, rolled it open with an iron key, and tasted it himself.
"The taste is not bad!"
Cai Hu was very satisfied.
This kind of food was suitable for the army to eat during normal times. It was also suitable for the army to bring along food. There was flour and beef in it, and it was very nutritious.
Moreover, the taste was quite good. Originally, Japan's recipe was for multi-grain noodles, but Cai Hu went against everyone's wishes and increased the proportion of beef.
This way, it would provide the warrior with more nutrition and stamina.
Apart from that, the new semi-automatic rifle equipment was also installed and put into production. Everything was thriving.
Andrei had been in Germany for almost 20 days. He should be back soon.
…
Chongqing, Independent Regiment Department.
Cai Hu sent a telegram to Cai E, requesting an expansion. When Cai E heard this, he gave Cai Hu the new 1st Brigade without thinking.
Seeing Cai E reply so quickly, Cai Hu was very happy. His father was still the best to him.
After the establishment, Cai Hu called for his subordinates to gather in the meeting room.
"Everyone, I hereby announce the establishment of the new 1st regiment!”
"The newly formed 1st Brigade will have two reinforced regiments under its jurisdiction. The 1st Battalion stationed in Dazhou will be directly expanded into the 1st Regiment, with the former Battalion Commander Cai Qingzan as the Regiment Commander!”
"The headquarters will immediately replenish the 1st Battalion and reorganize it into the 3rd Regiment. The Regiment Commander will also be the Regiment Commander!”
"Set up an armored vehicle battalion with 500 people!”
"Set up an air force group, with a fighter squadron of 10 fighter jets and a bomber squadron of 10 fighter jets!”
"Set up a logistics air squadron with two medium-sized transport aircraft under its jurisdiction!”
"Temporarily not establishing a brigade artillery battalion!”
Cai Hu announced a major change in the military.
The battalion commanders and company commanders were breathing heavily. As Cai Hu's status rose, they would rise as well.
There were a few reasons why Cai Hu wanted to expand his forces so quickly.
First, he had to quickly increase his strength. After the war, China's voice would be weak, and Japan would shamelessly demand to replace Germany's interests in the Shandong Peninsula. This needed a strong Chinese to speak up.
Second, although he had negotiated a settlement with the Japanese, the hatred between them was actually deeper. In order to prevent any mishaps, he had to increase his strength.
Third, Dazhou and Chongqing were located in the east of Sichuan. In order to control Sichuan and revitalize Sichuan's economic and military capabilities, they had to open up a lifeline to Chengdu!
Fourthly, Yibin was an important location. It was an important city port stronghold that Cai Hu had to take down. Hubei was currently the territory of the direct line, and there was a brigade of the Beiyang Army stationed here. Although there were only about 5000 people, they were the elites of the Beiyang Army, with artillery and a certain amount of machine guns.
Fifth, Zhang Xun was about to be restored. As the patrol envoy of Xuzhou, Zhang Xun controlled the rich land of money and grain around Xuzhou. Moreover, the Dharma protector movement was very important. It could earn him a lot of reputation. Moreover, he could take down the capital and drive down the last emperor. He had to have a lot of reputation and a lot of money. Otherwise, it would be easy for the Japanese in the future.
For this reason, Cai Hu had to maintain a mobile reinforcement team to use. Only then could he use his ultimate move.
…
In the suburbs of Chongqing.
The steel chariots hummed as they entered the city.
A total of 60 people were undergoing tank training here, with Cai Hu personally guiding them.
As a Cold War era armored infantry vehicle exchanged by the system, this vehicle weighed 15 tons and was equipped with a 20mm cannon and two machine guns.
In the engine room, the captain, driver, and gunner could sit.
After that, seven armed soldiers could be carried.
The high-quality alloy steel armor had a strong defense. Even a 60-degree mortar attack would only leave a small mark.
In addition, with advanced radio communication and night vision equipment, these six armored infantry vehicles were like six wild wolves on land.
"Regiment Commander, this metal lump is too powerful. With this, we can do whatever we want!”
"That's right. If the regiment commander gives the order, I feel like I can kill my way to Beiping!”
"Regiment Commander, do you want to be the Grand President?”
…
A few young men got off the armored vehicle and said to Cai Hu with a smile.
"Damn it, be serious!"
Cai Hu said to the few of them. Only then did the few of them stand there obediently and stand at attention.
Zhou Ba was the former vice-captain of the special unit. He was brave and sharp, and had a quick mind. Cai Hu had high hopes for him, and now he was making him the battalion commander of the Tank Battalion.
"As a soldier, you have to be down-to-earth. Don't bite off more than you can chew, and don't smile at your superiors during training and work hours!”
"Your mind is focused on studying combat. I have an armored infantry vehicle training manual and combat tactics here.”
"In short, you guys should do your best. Your chariot battalion is made up of 60 of you!”
"There will be another 500 infantrymen to be added as your cooperative infantrymen. What I want is a sharp elite force that can fight hard.”
"I'll give you a month at most. I want your Razor Sharp Battalion to have the ability to defeat half a division of the Beiyang army!”
Cai Hu said to these people.
"F * ck, half a division. The Northern Ocean Army has six to seven thousand people in half a division. We have 60 people. Adding another 500 people is still a little too little!”
a conductor said.
Zhou Ba glanced at this person and agreed to Cai Hu's request.
As a soldier, he had to be unafraid of hardship and fatigue. Even if he had to train day and night, he, Zhou Ba, wanted to make a steel lion.
Zhou Ba immediately took the training manual and tactical manual and began to read them hungrily.
The other captains, pilots, and gunners also quickly learned.
Cai Hu felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction when he saw them putting in so much effort. In a good mood, Cai Hu gave each of these soldiers two cans of beef as a reward.
Cai Hu had high expectations for the soldiers behind each tank in terms of agility, shooting standards, reaction speed, and coordination.
Cai Hu demanded a high level of knowledge for this batch of soldiers. Every single one of them was at the junior high school level in horseback riding, and there were even graduates from the Yunnan Military Academy.
Cai Hu asked them to spend their free time learning about the spare parts, maintenance, and power equipment of the chariot.
(Originally, Cai Hu wanted to hire an instructor from Germany, but when he thought about how Germany was starting from zero armored vehicles, he didn't do so. China's southwest would lead the world in this step.)）
This way, they would be able to coordinate with the armored infantry vehicles at the first moment and form a powerful combat force. Only then would they be able to bring the 500 soldiers behind them.
Cai Hu distributed the newly produced semi-automatic rifles to the soldiers in the vehicles to supplement their firepower.
