Shi Yousan said directly: "Sir Lu, in addition to brother Su Yan's Jiujiu Army, our 39th Army currently has two armies and four divisions, the 69th Army and the New Eighth Army, with a current strength of 28,000 people. , including 12,000 people from the 69th Army, 11,000 people from the New Eighth Army, and 5,000 troops directly under the army. It is equipped with 24,000 long and short guns, 320 light and heavy machine guns, 37 artillery pieces, and war horses More than 1,600 horses!¡±
Hearing Shi Yousan¡¯s report, everyone was silent. They all knew that the 39th Group Army had suffered a lot of losses in northern Henan some time ago, but they did not expect it to be so tragic.
According to the establishment of the general army of the national army, even the second-line garrison miscellaneous divisions have about 7,000 people. The number of front-line infantry divisions like the 39th Group Army, even if they are miscellaneous troops, will not be less than 7,000 or 8,000 people. , a group army is calculated as 4 divisions, plus some directly affiliated troops, there are at least about 35,000 people.
?? And it is even more amazing for the direct line of the Central Army. Even with the establishment of three divisions, its total strength is not less than 100,000.
But the total strength of the four divisions of the 39th Group Army is only 28,000, which is barely the strength of an army. No wonder Shi Yousan wants to defect to the Japs. His strength does not allow it!
After Shi Yousan sat down, Zhu Huaibing stood up and said: "Chief Lu: Our 97th Army suffered heavy losses in the battle with the Eighth Route Army some time ago, and it has not recovered yet. At present, the army has two divisions and one brigade, with a total strength of about 13,000 people. The weapons and equipment are also not satisfactory, with only 8,600 long guns, more than 80 light and heavy machine guns, 16 large and small artillery pieces, and some recruits have no guns and are only equipped with broadswords and spears!"
Lu Zhonglin nodded and said: "Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek has already informed the theater headquarters about your weapons and equipment, and he will make up for it soon. But as for the soldiers, the theater headquarters has no choice but to It¡¯s up to you!¡±
"Yes, if you have a gun, you don't have to worry about money. I am in contact with Cheng Xiazi from Erlong Mountain these days. If the negotiation is completed, all three thousand of his men will be incorporated into our 97th Army!" Zhu Huaibing said with a smile. .
Lu Zhonglin nodded, and then said: "Commander Pang, where is your department?"
Pang Bingxun, commander-in-chief of the 24th Group Army, immediately stood up and said: "Sir Lu, everyone: Our 24th Group Army is a group army in name, but in fact the main force is only my old army 40th Army. As for Lao Sun's New Fifth Army, it is just a group army." They have just been transferred, and I don¡¯t know the actual situation here, so I¡¯ll just talk about the situation of the 40th Army here!¡±
"Our department currently has two divisions and one brigade, plus the troops directly under the army, with a total strength of 23,000 people, equipped with 17,600 long and short guns, 260 light and heavy machine guns, and 33 large and small cannons. 37 cars and 3,600 horses!¡±
"Okay! Let Commander Sun of the New Fifth Army speak next!" Lu Zhonglin said again.
Hearing his name being called, Dongling Bandit Sun Dianying immediately stood up and said: "Sir Lu, our New Fifth Army has not been established for a long time, and the troops are all patchwork. So far, there are only about 16,000 people, but In fact, there are only four regiments of troops that can fight, and the weapons and equipment of our unit are also very poor. There are only one thousand 38-guns, three thousand medium-sized guns, and the rest are all made in Hanyang! The number of light and heavy machine guns Not much, one battalion can only be assigned one heavy machine gun and three light machine guns!"
Later, Sun Liangcheng, Zhang Yinwu and others also reported the situation of their headquarters one by one, and they were all very detailed!
After listening to the reports of these people, Li Guoyao couldn't help but frowned. Although he didn't know if these people had any hidden strength, the strength exposed on the surface was really not enough!
Originally, Li Guoyao estimated that with so many divisions and brigades, there would be at least a hundred or two hundred thousand people, but now it seems that he is overthinking it!
He just made some calculations secretly and found that the total of these troops is only a hundred thousand, and they are all miscellaneous. Their combat effectiveness can only be compared with that of the Eighth Route Army, or even worse than that of the Eighth Route Army.
I want to fight with the Japanese elites to death, but I really don¡¯t think highly of them. If I go there, I will just give away the heads to the little devils!
"Brother solemnly, everyone else has finished reporting. Tell us about the situation in your department!" Lu Zhonglin said.
Li Guoyao nodded and said: "Sir Lu, colleagues! Our Ninth Army has just completed its reorganization. Currently there are two divisions plus some directly affiliated troops, with a total strength of 22,000 people! The weapons and equipment of our unit are quite good, and the equipment is There are more than 17,000 long and short guns, 450 light and heavy machine guns, 80 anti-aircraft machine guns, 55 mortars, 18 Type 92 infantry guns, 16 mountain artillery and field guns, 12 field heavy artillery, and Japanese-made Type 94 , 28 Type 95 tanks, and 8,800 war horses"
Before he finished speaking, there was a gasp of cold air in the entire conference room.??
We all know that Li Guoyao's troops have strong combat capabilities, and that they dare to fight face to face with the Japs, even to the point where their bayonets are red, and they frequently defeat or even annihilate combat units at the level of the Japs' division. Everyone can imagine that the weapons and equipment of this unit must be good, but they didn't expect to be so arrogant. It is simply arrogant and inhumane!
An army of 22,000 people is considered normal, but don¡¯t forget that this army has just finished fighting a Japanese field division and wiped out the main force of the opponent. Calculating the casualties on a one-to-one basis, the Japanese losses With tens of thousands of people, Li Guoyao's troops should have lost this much.
In other words, the total strength of this army half a month ago should be around 40,000, or even more. Before that, this unit was not a military-level combat unit, nor did it have a formal designation. It was just a guerrilla force.
Such a powerful guerrilla force is truly unheard of and unseen!
There are also weapons and equipment, which makes everyone present feel a little tight. Just long and short guns, what the hell are light and heavy machine guns and artillery?
An army is equipped with 450 light and heavy machine guns. This does not include so many anti-aircraft machine guns. If you include them, there are a total of 530. Grandma is such a bear. It is too scary.
You must know that the most powerful A division of the Little Devils only has 300 to 400 light and heavy machine guns. The ordinary B division and C division only have two to three hundred. In other words, just Counting the number of light and heavy machine guns, Li Guoyao's troops were almost twice as many as the Japanese second-line garrison divisions.
There are also the number of artillery, including mortars, infantry artillery, mountain artillery, field artillery and field heavy artillery. The total number is 117. Even if there are so many troops in the Hebei-Cha War Zone, they may not be able to match Li Guoyao's troops.
Especially the field heavy artillery. Not to mention the Chinese army, even the Japanese army in North China only had one brigade equipped with less than 70 heavy artillery. However, Li Guoyao's troops actually had as many as 12. It was really impressive. People are shocked.
There are also the number of war horses. The Ninth Army currently has only more than 20,000 people, but there are nearly 9,000 war horses, almost one for every two people. No wonder this army can come and go like the wind and has such strong maneuverability.
After the shock, Lu Zhonglin immediately asked: "Brother Su Yan, how many people from your department have arrived in southern Hebei now?"
"According to the transfer order of the Military Commission, the main force of our department will be transferred from the Sulu Theater to the Jicha Theater. The main force of the current army has arrived at the junction of western Shandong and southern Hebei, but some logistics troops are still in southern Shandong. Now our department There are about 18,000 troops that can be put into combat." Li Guoyao replied.
Hearing the number 18,000, Lu Zhonglin¡¯s eyes, which were originally a little intoxicated, instantly lit up!
There is really nothing to say about the 18,000 troops in other troops, but Li Guoyao's troops are different. These 18,000 are almost the entire main force of Li Guoyao's troops. Once they are put on the battlefield, I am afraid that the 36th Division will also It may not be possible to stop it!
The top priority now is to move Li Guoyao's troops to the front line first, and not let them hide in the rear and watch the fun, especially when the Japanese attack is imminent.
After a moment of reflection, Lu Zhonglin said again: "Well, you all have a general understanding of the strength of each department. Due to the addition of the Jiujiu Army, the strength of our Hebei-Cha War Zone has been greatly strengthened. But correspondingly, we The defense zones should also be re-divided"
However, before he finished speaking, he heard Li Guoyao suddenly stand up and say: "Sir, wait a minute, I have something to say in my humble position!"
Lu Zhonglin was stunned for a moment, then nodded, indicating that Li Guoyao could express his opinion! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
