"You have successfully signed in. Congratulations on obtaining Mechanized Infantry Division (option).”
When a new day arrived, Zhang Xueming signed in again.
When he saw the reward, his heart skipped a beat. What followed was a huge surprise.
Not only did he gain the strength of a division, but he also gained the Mechanized Infantry Division.
After all, the new division was just a motorised infantry division.
To the current him, what he lacked the most was military strength. This was also his shortcoming.
The arrival of the Mechanized Infantry Division made up for his last shortcoming.
Even if the Japanese army sent another division, he was confident that he could win.
However, he was a little puzzled. What did this option mean?
"So you're choosing the equipment system. The new division is an American Machinist, so let's continue choosing American Machinery.”
Although the Wan Guo brand weapon was very powerful, the logistics would definitely be exhausted.
Therefore, Zhang Xueming still tried his best to choose the same equipment system.
Then, he checked the organization of the Mechanized Infantry Division and was almost blinded.
The Mechanized Infantry Division had three divisions: the Division Headquarters, the Artillery Regiment, the Armored Reconnaissance Battalion, and the Mechanized Infantry Regiment. It had 18517 people.
The most eye-catching thing was the equipment configuration of the mechanized infantry division.
The Artillery Regiment directly under the division had a 90mm anti-aircraft artillery battalion. This anti-aircraft artillery battalion also brought Zhang Xueming a lot of surprises.
There was also a battalion of 18 M43 155mm self-propelled artillery and a battalion of 18 T92 240 self-propelled artillery.
This artillery regiment could be said to have unleashed its heavy firepower to the extreme.
When Zhang Xueming looked at the anti-aircraft artillery battalion that he hadn't paid much attention to, he didn't expect it to be a big surprise.
This anti-aircraft artillery battalion was equipped with a total of 36 M290mm anti-aircraft guns.
This was not the main point. The main point was the SCR584 radar command system that the anti-aircraft artillery battalion was equipped with.
This system was equipped with an SCR584 microwave anti-aircraft gun aiming radar, an M9 shooting director, an automatic control launch system, and a proximity fuse.
This thing's battle record was also very valiant.
In World War II, they destroyed thousands of German V1 missiles.
In two days at the latest, the Japanese army would definitely make a move on the two K5 train guns that were used as bait.
The radar of this anti-aircraft artillery battalion could be put to good use.
It would allow him to know the movements of the Japanese fighter planes in advance.
After all, its detection range could reach up to 64 kilometers. It could temporarily be used as an early warning radar.
There were also three mechanized infantry regiments.
Each mechanized infantry regiment had about 4000 soldiers.
They were equipped with 9 M7 Priest 105mm self-propelled howitzers, 24 M4 Sherman tanks, 45 M3 half-tracks, 100 M39 armored personnel carriers, and 150 M3 armored reconnaissance vehicles.
There were also 260 transport trucks and 220 jeeps.
The three mechanized infantry regiments combined had a lot of armored vehicles of various models.
As expected of the Mechanized Infantry Division. Only the elite division of Yingjiang in the later stages of World War II could compare to them.
Zhang Xueming only needed one mechanized infantry division to face the Kwantung Army in Jinzhou.
The 2nd Mechanized Infantry Division was this division's establishment in the border guards.
Zhang Xueming immediately ordered the Second Division to head to Suizhong.
They would also form a joint command center with the new division.
The 2nd Mechanized Infantry Division gathered, set off, and arrived at Suizhong County. Adding on the fact that they were hiding on the spot, it took a total of about four hours.
The arrival of this teacher also shocked Huang Huanran.
Looking at his new division, then looking at the 2nd Mechanized Infantry Division, the difference in equipment was too great.
The various armored vehicles almost blinded him.
Then, he became excited.
The Chief of Staff of the border guards, Jiang Fangzhen, had contacted him to understand the situation at the front line.
This also allowed him to understand the Tashan Plan.
With the addition of the 2nd Mechanized Infantry Division, the Japanese would definitely lose.
The sky lit up, and it was located in the military airport of Fengtian.
The Kwantung Army Air Force, the independent flying formation of Type 92 fighter jets, and Type 88 light bomber planes took off from the airport.
After gathering in the air, the 63 fighter planes headed straight for Suizhong.
Last time, the 2nd Aerial Unit suffered a huge loss at Shanhaiguan.
12 bomber planes went to provide support, but they did not achieve anything. Instead, many of the bomber planes were shot down.
This also made Lu Hang lose face in front of the Kwantung Army.
This time, not only did they want to destroy the two K5 train cannons, but they also wanted to bomb the new division's camp in Suizhong to vent their anger.
An independent fighter jet flew over Jinzhou.
Looking at the dozens of fighter jets above them, the 20th Regiment Commander Shichiro chuckled and said,""Today is the beginning of the northeast army's nightmare.”
However, Fujita Shigeru couldn't bring himself to laugh.
The Kwantung Army headquarters reprimanded him.
However, they did not dismiss him. After all, this was a crime that was not related to war.
At the same time, they also provided him with a batch of heavy artillery, all of which were pulled out from the Fengtian Munitions Factory.
Among them were 240mm howitzers.
This batch of heavy artillery would be given priority to his independent heavy artillery regiment.
However, he was still not happy because the performance of this batch of heavy artillery was somewhat backward. How could it compare to the ones they made?
At the train cannon position.
An SCR548 radar car was already deployed and turned on, constantly monitoring the movements in the north.
Soon, the green dots entered the plane position indicator of the radar car.
" Report! Enemy planes spotted! Number of 63! Position…"
"Wuuu."
The anti-air alarm of the train cannon sounded.
At the same time, P51D Mustang fighter jets took off from the temporary airport at Shanhaiguan.
After the 40 P51D Mustang fighter jets formed a flight formation, they headed directly in the direction of the Japanese fleet.
This would be the first large-scale aerial battle since the First World War.
The Japanese army would never have thought that Zhang Xueming actually had an air force.
"Pass on my order. After the aerial battle ends, the new division will immediately set up at Tashan. The second division will continue to lie in ambush in Suizhong.”
