These infantry regiments are equipped with 10 more advanced 75mm caliber howitzers. Although the caliber has not changed, the stand-mounted guns have been upgraded to more modern barrel guns.
The new barrel-retractable cannon, which is also breech-loaded, has a faster rate of fire, more accurate shooting, more charges, and a more terrifying range.
At the same time, the soldiers of these infantry regiments also learned from the security forces of the Datang Group, equipped with M35 steel helmets, and used the same style of military uniforms. Therefore, compared with the armies of other kingdoms with colorful uniforms at the same time, this unit is more concealed.
Sex is better.
These soldiers are equipped with the same K3 rifle as the Datang Group's security forces. This rifle uses advanced copper-cased bullets and is much more advanced than the needle-fired guns used by both sides on the battlefield.
What's even more frightening is that each infantry company of this army has two Maxim G1 machine guns, plus the machine gun unit directly under the regiment headquarters. This firepower is not comparable to the troops of the Wright Kingdom.
The reorganized Northridge Infantry Regiment has three battalions under one regiment and three companies under one battalion. One company has a total of 200 people, and the entire regiment has a configuration of 2,000 people.
Each regiment is equipped with 20 heavy machine guns. The total number of heavy machine guns in a regiment in Beiling is close to the total number of heavy machine guns purchased by the Wright Kingdom...
It is no exaggeration to say that this is completely the equipment level of Brother Kaishen's direct troops in 1940. It can be said that these rookies who are not in the level of Manchu military technology at the moment can definitely be said to be overkill.
In fact, there are only five infantry regiments in Beiling, and the remaining regiment... is the first organized artillery regiment in the history of the world!
This regiment is equipped with 20 75mm caliber howitzers and 20 new larger 105mm caliber artillery. The sample of this artillery is the L16 artillery produced and developed by Germany during World War I.
This cannon has excellent ballistics, a very long range, and a moderate weight, making it very suitable for the troops of this era.
After all, you need to rely on horses to drag it most of the time, so light weight is definitely a very eye-catching indicator parameter.
As for the retreating artillery, all the troops in Beiling have been eliminated - these second-hand artillery were not wasted at all, they were directly resold to the Pinewood Kingdom for a little extra money...
Of course, aside from these advanced weapons, the reputation of the Northridge Corps alone is enough to make people feel intimidated.
This force was known for its well-trained combat effectiveness two years ago, and under Count Fischerot, it often achieved results of winning more with less.
But because in the past year or so, the Kingdom of Wright has not used Northridge's army for its external expansion, this has gradually made everyone forget that there is a strong army in the land sandwiched between Wright and Susas.
The presence.
After all, the other troops of the Wright Kingdom also fought very well. The battle to annex the neighbors attracted so much attention that everyone forgot that the strongest troops of the Wright Kingdom... actually haven't moved at all!
The sad thing is that now, this army...it has moved!
However, due to the length of the logistics supply route and the large number of heavy weapons and equipment, the Beiling troops were not able to move in such a comprehensive manner.
In fact, the Beiling troops that arrived in the close combat zone did not dispatch heavy artillery units, and most of the 75mm howitzers did not follow up.
However, in order to deal with possible defenses by the enemy, Beiling's troops still brought 10 105mm howitzers as heavy fire support.
The total number of Northridge troops arriving in the theater was not too large. In fact, there were only 2 infantry regiments and two artillery companies reinforced for them.
Now, the troops of the Gemelin Kingdom that have invaded Leyte are facing a complicated situation.
To the north of them was the Beiling troops that had just arrived at the front line. They didn't know the number of the other side yet. Even according to the most optimistic prediction, it was an army of 3,000 people.
On the other side of them was the army led by King Wright VII, which numbered more than 5,000 and was a very powerful main force.
No matter which direction you look at it, the Gemelin Kingdom is already at an absolute disadvantage in this battle.
Previously, Gemelin's troops had lost a large number of troops when they attacked the Leyte Kingdom's border defenders.
Those who were added later were actually some miscellaneous troops with little training, including stragglers led by Chumro.
Although the commander of the Gemelin Kingdom still has more than 8,000 troops with the addition of Cyric's private army, it is clear to everyone that their combat effectiveness is uneven.
The bigger problem still lies in logistical supplies. As the troops of the Kingdom of Gemelin advance, they are getting further and further away from their supply depot.
Ammunition replenishment cannot keep up with consumption, and the army's supplies are also stretched thin. What everyone was discussing just now was to find ways to improve the transportation environment.
But now, it is obvious that the Wright Kingdom does not intend to give them time to improve their logistical supply conditions.
After his face changed for a long time, the general of the Gemelin Kingdom looked at the person in charge of Cyric standing next to him, and asked: "What should we do? We are already having a hard time facing the main force of the Wright Kingdom in front of us!"
The person in charge of Cyric looked ugly, but he still spoke to reassure the other party: "Don't worry! They are just bluffing!"
He also did not expect that the Wright Kingdom would tolerate the Northridge troops leaving their territory, and he did not expect that this troops would appear here at this time.
The general of the Gemelin Kingdom sneered and said dissatisfied: "A bluff? What I'm afraid of is that before we can win in other directions, our side of the Gemelin Kingdom will be finished first!"
There are almost 10,000 people on the other side, and there are only 18,000 people on our side. In this kind of battle with no advantage, Gemelin really doesn't dare to fight casually.
"Don't worry! Soon, the disadvantages in other directions will make them retreat!" There is no good way, and the person in charge of the Cyric Consortium can only bite the bullet and emphasize the involvement in other directions.

On the streets of Bunas, the old lady selling newspapers waved the newspaper in her hand and shouted shyly: "Read the newspaper! Read the newspaper! Great victory in Nanyang! Great victory in Nanyang!"
Standing not far from her, another old lady was also selling the newspaper in her hand: "Come and see! Come and see! Datang Group's warships captured 30 enemy ships! Successive victories!"
There is no way, the children in Bunas all have to go to school, so the sight of newsboys selling newspapers has never appeared in Bunas.
When newspapers were first launched, they relied on the elderly to sell them, which gave many unemployed elderly people a valuable opportunity to make money.
It can be said that in this magical city of Bunas, as long as you want to work, you will definitely find a job.
The atmosphere that was originally a bit solemn due to the war became much more lively with the news of the victory being published in the newspapers.
Everyone likes to hear good news, so when the workers heard that Datang Group had achieved a glorious victory in a distant place, they all smiled on their faces.
It seems that the war will soon be over, good times will continue, everyone's life will return to normal, and everything will return to the way it was before the war broke out.
No, or it will get better!
In the factory, the workers were sorting the parts on the conveyor belt in front of them and sighed: "Captured thirty transport ships? Hey! Sunk 70 enemy ships?"
Beside him, his companion nodded: "Isn't it?"
What was published in the newspaper was the newly confirmed result of the Battle of Rewind Port. The Datang Group's fleet sailed south to Talen and achieved an unprecedented victory in Rewind Port.
Commander Bernard completely wiped out the enemy's provocative fleet heading north, and the results were so brilliant that it was unbelievable.
The warships he sent out to chase the fleeing enemy discovered the enemy's transport fleet, and after sinking all the escorting warships, the enemy surrendered voluntarily.
As a result, the troops, food and supplies carried by the thirty transport ships all became Bernard's spoils of war.
"Out of humanitarianism, we rescued more than 1,500 soldiers who fell into the water!" In this busy workshop, workers who were taking a break were holding newspapers, and there was a water cup on the machine next to them.
The worker closed the newspaper and said disdainfully: "If you ask me, those who fell into the water should be thrown into the sea and drowned!"
"Isn't it! It's a waste of food! Forget it by drowning!" The workers who were working shared the same hatred and started shouting.
"Didn't the newspaper say... These prisoners of war must serve 10 years in prison and work in the most difficult mines to compensate for the debts they owe, hehe." Put the polished parts in the basket, not far away
One of the workers answered without raising his head.
Many of the workers in this factory were former slaves, and they know what kind of life slaves have to face.
"It's still easier for them! Being a slave here is happier than being a free citizen outside!" Another worker said as he passed by.
His words immediately attracted a chorus of approval, because many people had actually seen the slaves bought by the Datang Group, and the treatment of these people was much better than that of slaves in other places.

"The counterattack is set in the eastern part of Leyte! Let's deal with the Gmelin Kingdom first! The rest will be solved easily!" Tang Mo tapped on the map and said to his men: "Redman has rushed to the war zone.
, he will take over the command of the troops in Beiling and attack Gemelin's troops in a flanking attack!"
"In addition, after Dorne stabilizes the situation, the naval fleet will go south! Whether it is the Kingdom of Talon or the Kingdom of Shiron... none of them can escape!" After saying that, Tang Mo sneered: "I want to
Drag me into the quagmire of depleted supplies? I just want a quick fix!"
"Mobilize all production capacity! Once we defeat the enemy, we will get back all the profits that have been delayed due to the war!" Finally, Tang Mo ordered.
"Yes! Master!" Everyone in the meeting stood up and responded to Tang Mo with their chins raised.
