Tang Zheng now has seven companies, including five field companies, one engineering company, and one city guard company.
Next, he set up three companies.
They are armored company, artillery company and army aviation company.
He decided that the armored company would be composed of armored vehicles and light tanks as the assault force of the troops.
The artillery battery is composed of 63 rocket launchers and howitzers as a long-range strike force.
The Army Aviation Company, also called Army Aviation, is composed of helicopter units.
These companies don't require that many people, but their strength is not bad at all.
The first is the armored company.
Due to limited funds, Tang Zheng could not launch a large-scale explosion, so he decided to purchase ten tanks and five armored vehicles for the first time.
[Boxer Armored Personnel Carrier: Total weight is 20 tons. It can transport 11 soldiers at a time under normal conditions. It can carry up to 22 people. It has a maximum load of 8 tons. It is equipped with a 12.7mm anti-aircraft machine gun. It has a maximum speed of 103 kilometers per hour. It sells for 10,000 gold.]
As an assault force, this armored vehicle can quickly transport soldiers to the front line. Five vehicles can transport 50 to 100 soldiers at a time.
Five cars, fifty thousand gold.
[The Scimitar light tank weighs 18 tons, has a crew of 3, is equipped with a 75mm main gun and a 7.62mm parallel machine gun, is equipped with a smoke launcher, and has a maximum speed of 80 kilometers per hour. It sells for 15,000 gold.]
This kind of light tank is also used as an assault force. Facing the current survivors, it already has a considerable advantage. Only those at the level of the Alliance can fight against it.
Five cars, seventy-five thousand gold.
[Type 15 light tank: total weight 33 tons, crew of 3, equipped with a 105mm caliber rifled gun, effective range of 3000 meters, equipped with 12.7mm anti-aircraft machine gun, equipped with 30mm automatic grenade launcher, maximum speed 70 kilometers per hour
hour, selling price is 40,000 gold.】
This last tank is the main force of Tang Zheng's armored company.
Although it may not look like a light tank, it is a very advanced model. Once you buy it, it can compete with some main battle tanks. Especially this one can be upgraded to three stars. I believe that when it reaches three stars, it can compete with the most advanced main battle tanks.
It's just that the price is very expensive. A car costs 40,000 gold. Tang Zheng gritted his teeth and won 200,000 gold!
After the car is purchased, it needs to be equipped with personnel.
[Armored Vehicle Combat Group (2 persons): Price is 1,000 gold. 】
[Tank combat group (3 people): selling price 1500 gold. 】
Five armored vehicle combat groups are worth 5,000 gold, and ten tank vehicle combat groups are worth 15,000 gold, for a total of 20,000 gold.
The initial formation of the armored company has been completed, with a total cost of 345,000 gold!
This money is spent like water, but this armored company, at this stage, is absolutely crushing in this area of the Northern Territory.
With 160,000 gold left, Tang Zheng continued to purchase the artillery battery.
[Type 63 107mm towed rocket launcher: total weight is 613 kilograms, has 19 launch tubes, maximum range is 8500 meters, requires vehicles to be towed to travel, comes with 38 rockets, sells for 2000 gold.]
At this stage, the Type 63 rocket launcher is probably more useful than the howitzer. After all, there are not many targets worth using howitzers to hit.
Tang Zheng purchased ten rocket launchers at one time and then equipped them with ten combat groups.
[Bazooka Combat Group (3 people): Price is 1,000 gold.]
A total of thirty thousand gold.
Even though it only costs 30,000 gold, this kind of strike firepower is more cost-effective than almost all other weapons.
After buying the rocket launchers, I also need to buy a few howitzers. At least they have full deterrent effect.
[M198-155mm towed howitzer: maximum range 25,000 meters, five operators, total weight 7,000 kilograms, 10 rounds of shells. Priced at 10,000 gold.]
[Howitzer Combat Group (5 people): Price is 2,000 gold.]
Five howitzers and five combat groups cost a total of 60,000 gold.
Tang Zheng mobilized ten 212 jeeps and Willys jeeps from the army to serve as vehicles for the artillery, because their artillery still needed vehicles to tow it.
The mortar combat group that Tang Zheng purchased before has also been added to the artillery company, but currently there are only three mortars.
At this point, Tang Zheng's artillery battery was officially online.
Finally, it was the Lu Hang Company that Tang Zheng had been waiting for for a long time.
It's just that Tang Zheng really didn't have much money in hand. After buying the artillery company out of the more than 160,000 gold he had just left, he only had more than 76,000 gold in hand.
Tang Zheng looked at the two helicopters.
[AMH-6 Little Bird Helicopter: Maximum crew of 4 people, maximum take-off weight of 1.4 tons, equipped with a 12.7 mm machine gun, equipped with 12 Hellfire anti-tank missiles, maximum speed of 300 kilometers per hour, priced at 20,000 gold.]
[CH-47 transport helicopter: adopts front and rear twin-propeller design, crew of 3, length 30 meters, height 5.7 meters, empty weight 5.5 tons, maximum load capacity 6 tons, maximum flight speed 315 kilometers per hour, equipped with two 12.7 mm
Movable machine gun, comes with 1,000 bullets. Priced at 50,000 gold.]
Just buy one of each type, I really can’t afford too many.
Click to buy a Bird Helicopter for 20,000 gold.
A transport helicopter, 50,000 gold.
After the purchase was completed, I had more than 6,000 gold left in my hand.
Also purchase a helicopter combat group.
[Helicopter Combat Group (2 people): Price is 2,000 gold.]
[Helicopter Combat Group (3 people): Price is 3,000 gold.]
These two combat groups correspond to two types of helicopters.
After buying them all, I will have more than a thousand gold left in my hand.
Tang Zheng originally planned to buy a bunch of paratroopers, but after looking at the price of 500 paratroopers each, he gave up after thinking about it.
When you have more money, you can build up the Army Aviation Company.
All purchases are completed, and the next step is to wait patiently.
From early morning to dusk, Tang Zheng had been sending troops.
Soldiers kept appearing one after another, and chariots kept appearing.
Every time a soldier appeared, he would come to Tang Zheng to report it. By the end, Tang Zheng was a little numb and couldn't remember the names of the soldiers at all.
He just asked the soldiers to quickly return to their ranks and return to their positions.
Only when the chariot finally came out did Tang Zheng become excited again.
A huge and powerful armored vehicle appeared with a rumble.
The tracked light tanks quickly brought Tang Zheng's troop strength to a new level.
Especially after the Type 15 light tank appeared, Tang Zheng felt the charm of the weapon even more when he looked at the huge gun barrel and the heavy body.
Finally came the appearance of airplanes.
The Bird helicopter is like a giant egg, but the machine guns and Hellfire missiles on the plane make no one dare to underestimate it.
The last one is a transport helicopter.
The 30-meter-long behemoth fell from the sky, and the front and rear propellers drove a huge wind, which made Tang Zheng unable to open his eyes.
This helicopter can carry a combat platoon of soldiers at one time and is a powerful maneuvering force.
Tang Zheng decided to use this aircraft first.
His current vehicle is a Hummer Jeep, which is okay to use.
If he wanted to change his vehicle, he could only switch to an armored vehicle. As the top commander of the army, Tang Zheng didn't really want to ride in an armored vehicle.
But airplanes are different.
This aircraft looks so domineering, and Tang Zheng also likes the design of the front and rear twin propellers.
Resisting the idea of getting on the plane for a ride immediately, Tang Zheng still had one more thing to do.
That is to appoint the officers of the army.
Now he has a total of ten companies, and there are several platoons below. He has to appoint these company commanders and platoon commanders.
First, Tang Zheng purchased ten sets of company commander's uniforms.
"Now I declare, First Company Commander, Luo Fei!"
Luo Fei came over excitedly. As the first mobilization soldier purchased by Tang Zheng, he followed Tang Zheng all the way to fight. Tang Zheng never forgot him and put him in the position of the first company commander.
He took the company commander's uniform from Tang Zheng and saluted Tang Zheng excitedly.
Tang Zheng waved his hand, indicating that the other party would omit the words of loyalty and that he would continue to make appointments.
"Second Company Commander, Yang Mu!"
"Third company commander, Wang Yu!"
"Fourth company commander, Li Jie!"
"Fifth company commander, Michael!"
"Engineer company commander, Bao Xilai is here!"
"City Guard Company Commander Chu Xuan!"
Tang Zheng originally wanted Ji Yuntian to take on this appointment, but when he thought about it, Chu Xuan had been with him for a long time. He was still just a guard, and he had been promoted for his achievements.
Moreover, his own security platoon is also an important department. The platoon leader is no less valuable than the company commander, so Ji Yuntian is still allowed to stay.
Chu Xuan excitedly took the military uniform from Tang Zheng, saluted and left.
The remaining armored companies, artillery companies, and army aviation companies need professionals.
The commander of the first Type 15 tank under Tang Zheng's command was named Jiang Hao, and he was appointed by Tang Zheng as the commander of the armored company.
The first howitzer commander, named Wang Jinglong, was appointed commander of the artillery company.
Then came the Army Aviation Company.
Tang Zheng thought for a while and felt that the two captains were not very suitable, so he simply bought another paratrooper.
This is his first paratrooper, named Hu Yuhang, who was appointed commander of the Army Aviation Company.
At this point, the appointment of ten company commanders has been completed.
Lu Dachuan is the cook platoon leader.
Wang Haihe is the medical platoon leader.
Guo Yun continued to serve as the Minister of Scientific Research. Since He Xue was still with Tang Zheng, he was still the bare commander.
Finally, there is the guard platoon. Tang Zheng was about to appoint Ji Yuntian as the guard platoon leader, but suddenly he discovered a mistake of his.
He actually forgot to upgrade the guard class. Now the guard class is still a guard class without adding anyone.
Even Chu Xuan was transferred to be the city guard company commander, and there was one less person than before.
Tang Zheng was a little embarrassed and said to Ji Yuntian: "Then you will continue to be the squad leader first. When the personnel are replenished, you will be promoted to platoon leader."
Ji Yuntian could only nod: "General, I'm not in a hurry. I'm not the kind of official fanatic. You've always known that."
Seeing that Tang Zheng said he was a little thirsty, Ning Yuwei opened her military kettle.
"General, have a drink of water and rest."
Among Tang Zheng's guards, Ji Yuntian is relatively busy as the squad leader, so most of the time, he is followed by Ning Yuwei.
For this girl, Tang Zheng felt that he should make arrangements if he had the chance, but money was tight right now, so he could only make arrangements after a while.
She nodded to Ning Yuwei and looked encouragingly. Ning Yuwei understood and smiled.
He Xue also ran over at this time and lit a cigarette for Tang Zheng: "General, my truck bomb will be ready soon!"
"Really? Then you are awesome."
Looking at the two beautiful girls in front of him, Tang Zheng felt happy and praised them casually.
Seeing the harmonious scene here, Guo Yun, the head of the scientific research department of Commander Guanggan, came to Ji Yuntian's side.
"Squad leader Ji, I don't think you have any chance of being on duty. Can I go find you for a drink tonight?"
