LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 17
First of all, the biggest benefit of upgrading is equipment.
Now the base can produce all weapons and equipment before 1942.
And the equipment before 1937 is half the price.
This also means that he will have to make certain adjustments to the equipment and organization of the troops next.
In addition, the buildings of the base can be upgraded.
For example, the barracks can be upgraded to level 2 barracks.
The advantage is that the recruitment speed is doubled.
A barracks can recruit 100 conscripts and 50 elite soldiers a day.
After the level 2 barracks, soldiers can also be upgraded to level 2 soldiers.
Level 2 soldiers are veterans of hundreds of battles, with extremely rich combat experience and proficient in various individual skills.
As long as we fight with the devils, perhaps many level 2 soldiers will be born soon.
The more devils you kill, the faster you will be promoted.
There is also a mining car.
For a level 2 mining car, 5,000 funds can be collected every day.
At present, there are 30 mining cars in the base that are constantly running.
If all are upgraded, it means that he can earn 150,000 funds in a single day.
"Upgrade, upgrade all!"
Jiang Fan naturally did not hesitate to use these tens of thousands of funds to upgrade the mining vehicle to level two.
In addition, the construction range of the base itself was increased from 10 kilometers to 50 kilometers.
And within this 50-kilometer range, the base has its own map.
Friendly forces are marked in green, neutral forces are marked in gray, and hostile forces are marked in red.
That is to say, all enemies within this 50-kilometer range have nowhere to hide.
Including spies from all sides.
Looking at the many red dots in Chengde, Jiang Fan sneered.
After browsing the benefits of the upgrade, it's time to get down to business.
The air force base can now produce all weapons and equipment before 1942. What he needs most now is a fighter.
And this fighter also needs to have a strong ground attack capability.
The best choice is the P-47D Thunderbolt that served in 1942. Electric fighter.
Because of the air-cooled engine, this fighter has a thick head and a fat body, and its appearance is not as good as the liquid-cooled fighter with a slender body.
But the air-cooled engine has stronger survivability.
And it has better low-altitude performance.
If you choose between the Mustang and the Thunder, Jiang Fan still chooses the P-47D fighter.
Although it is not very beautiful, its performance is quite tough, and it is one of the top fighters in World War II.
Its maximum flight speed is close to 700 kilometers per hour and its maximum range is 2,900 kilometers.
Equipped with 8 12.7mm M2 Browning machine guns, the belly can also carry 1,100 kg of bombs or 10 127mm aerial rockets.
Whether it is air-to-air or ground-to-ground, the firepower is extremely fierce.
It is simply a hang for the devil's fighter planes, and it also has fierce ground-to-ground capabilities.
The price of 2000 funds is not expensive.
He decided to form a Thunder Fighter Brigade first.
It has 4 squadrons under its jurisdiction, and each squadron is equipped with 12 fighter planes.
Together with the four fighter planes of the brigade headquarters, a total of 52 fighter planes are equipped.
More than 500 pilots, ground crew, officers, etc. are needed.
As for pilots, the hard requirement is to be elite soldiers, and conscripts can only be used as army arms.
This brigade requires about 120,000 funds.
It can be done in one day.
But a few more air force bases must be built.
There is also the adjustment of infantry equipment.
First of all, in terms of rifles, Jiang Fan decided to replace the M1 Garand with a G43 semi-automatic rifle.
The reason is also very simple, it is a logistical issue.
The inconsistency of bullet caliber, parts, and specifications will cause chaos in logistics and increase the difficulty of work. degree.
Moreover, this rifle is not weaker than the M1.
And he also decided to equip each soldier with a Colt pistol.
This is also a problem he found in the battle.
The little devils like to engage in hand-to-hand combat.
In such close-range combat, rifles and submachine guns are not very useful.
And pistols, especially Colt. 45 caliber high-powered pistols are particularly easy to use.
Anyway, a pistol is very cheap, and there is no problem in equipping each soldier.
Since they are soldiers of the Red Alert Corps, they must be armed to the teeth.
The degree of luxury of equipment must surpass that of the Eagle Sauce soldiers.
In addition, Jiang Fan also added a battalion to each brigade.
And this company is the Katyusha rocket launcher battalion.
How could he not equip Katyusha rocket launchers, which are highly effective weapons?
Each rocket launcher battalion is equipped with 24 BM-13 Katyusha rocket launchers.
A total of 384 rockets can be fired in a single salvo.
This firepower density is terrifying.
In addition, he is also planning to form a heavy artillery brigade. With
150,000 yuan a day, it only takes a few days to form a heavy artillery brigade.
He has received accurate information.
This time, the Japanese army will dispatch the 8th Division, the 4th Cavalry Brigade, and two puppet army divisions to attack Chengde from Pingquan and Chifeng.
The total force is expected to be around 50,000.
However, this information is not accurate.
In addition to the above-mentioned troops, there are two field heavy artillery regiments.
These two heavy artillery regiments are both affiliated with the 4th Field Heavy Artillery Brigade.
They are Class A field heavy artillery regiments.
Each regiment is equipped with 24 Taisho 4-year-old 150mm field howitzers, and the two regiments have a total of 48 guns.
This time, the Kwantung Army was really angry and decided to annihilate Jiang Fan's troops with thunder and lightning to save the face of the Kwantung Army.
And these troops have almost been assembled.
There is really not much time left for Jiang Fan.
