Huang Zhongting felt that there was nothing, as a history teacher, he still knew a lot about weapons and equipment, and the equipment of his current 1,000 people was almost comparable to the equipment of the Japanese army in World War II, except that there were no planes, tanks and poison gas bombs......

And at this time, he didn't care too much about the Qing army, even if it was a new army, unless tens of thousands of people came and relied on the sea of people to treat them as dumpling stuffing.

"It's only 5,000 people, I look down on people too much", Huang Zhongting quietly slandered himself, but felt a little aggrieved.

He glanced at the people in the staff headquarters with expressionless faces, Huang Zhongyuan, the commander of the first battalion, Xu Guichuan, the commander of the second battalion, Liao Zhongyi, the commander of the third battalion, Li Desheng, the commander of the guard company, and Li Kan, the chief of staff of the General Staff.

Then he looked at Li Desheng and said in a deep voice: "Send someone to call the commanders of the recruit battalion, Li Shaoyang and Gu Haiqiang, let's have a meeting, although we don't need him to do anything in the recruit battalion, we must also know the situation." ”

Huang Zhongyuan and the others suddenly moved in their hearts, and said silently, "These two young guys are also going to be on an equal footing with them, it seems that their status in Huang Zhongting's heart is not low." ”

A few minutes later, Li Shaoyang and Gu Haiqiang also arrived in a hurry, and after calling the young commander, they found two side positions and sat down.

As they grew up during this time, they both understood what they should do and what they should not do.

Huang Zhongting pointed to the simple map hanging on the wall, and said slowly: "The Qing army attacked our estuary from Wenshan Prefecture, Nanxi is their must pass, let them enter Nanxi, build a position 3 kilometers south of Nanxi, the first battalion cut off the road to build the main position, the left side is the Nanxi River, we don't care, the second battalion occupies the right mountain to build fortifications, the artillery position is also placed on the hill behind the second battalion, and the guard company is stationed with me to guard the artillery position. ”

Huang Zhongyuan's brain was also running rapidly after calming down, "In this way, the terrain is limited, and the main force of one of our battalions is unlikely to be able to swing on the frontal position, not to mention that the Qing army's 5,000 people will not be able to attack all at all, and when the time comes, relying on our firepower superiority, they will not be able to break through our position at all." ”

"Then what if they retreat to Nanxi Town, although Nanxi Town is only a small town, the terrain is open enough, and they can rely on residents' houses for defense, I don't think it's appropriate to give up Nanxi." Xu Guichuan was also thinking seriously.

Huang Zhongting chuckled lightly after hearing this: "It would be better if they retreated to Nanxi Town, my 5 75mm Krupp Mountain Guns have a maximum range of 4,300 meters, and if the artillery position is placed on the mountain, the condescending firing range can be increased a little, and the people of Nanxi Town will be moved away in advance, just to practice the feel of artillery." ”

"Oh, yes, I forgot there's a battalion of mountain artillery." Xu Guichuan's sudden realization instantly amused the people present, and the atmosphere was not as tense as before.

Xu Guichuan said the word "first battalion" very seriously, mixed with envy, jealousy and hatred, and everyone present also understood it, which made Huang Zhongyuan, the commander of the first battalion, shake his head helplessly.

Huang Zhongting didn't care about Xu Guichuan's careful thoughts, and continued to say in a deep voice: "The third battalion stationed in Longyan Shugou has also been transferred and placed behind the first battalion as a reserve in case of accidents. In addition, the new battalion transferred 500 combatable people, distributed rifles replaced by new equipment, and was led by Li Shaoyang and Gu Haiqiang to garrison Hekou County. ”

"After the start of the war, don't expose the heavy firepower first, and then fire at me when they can't bear to attack after they test it, okay, let's go." Huang Zhongting roared with a slightly "majestic" look.

"Yes", the participating officers stood up with their legs together, all straight and straight.

Huang Zhongting was stunned for a moment, "It's so familiar, it's exactly the same as what it looks like on TV, it's a bit like that, I don't need to teach it, my subordinates, tsk." He nodded in satisfaction.

During this period of repair, Huang Zhongting changed the equipment of his soldiers, and the military uniforms were also changed, imitating the German active military uniform, changing the color to army green, and entrusting Firmman to customize it in Vietnam, of course, he also ordered the matching helmet, bullet box, water bottle and other individual equipment, a total of 8,000 sets, and Huang Zhongting spent 10,000 silver dollars.

Now, every soldier has a new uniform, a new weapon, a monthly salary on time, and a full meal of meat, and a high level of morale.

Huang Zhongting saw all this, and Li Kan of the General Staff also advised that there was no need to spend so much money on this, but Huang Zhongting pressed back.

"To fight a war is to fight for money, and if you are not willing to invest, you should never expect people to be willing and selfless to work for you." Huang Zhongting thought silently, thinking of the treasures that were spent, and he was a little distressed, "Fucking Lao Tzu's treasures are only 5 boxes left, and they are almost gone."

But in an instant, I thought that these more than 20 boxes of treasures were not my own, they belonged to the Eagle King, and I just picked them up, and my mood instantly improved a lot.

Three days have passed in a blink of an eye, in the early morning of June 28, on the artillery position on the top of Nanxi Mountain, Huang Zhongting was holding a telescope to observe the positions of the first and second battalions below, looking at the staggered and twisted infantry position, Huang Zhongting secretly admired, "My cheap cousin is really amazing, worthy of being a top student of the German Army University, tsk, although I can't understand it, but I just think it's smart." ”

Just now, the scouts have passed on the latest movements of the Qing army, and the vanguard of the Qing army is less than 15 miles away, which is about half an hour's foot, and Huang Zhongting still seems to be indifferent and doesn't care.

Li Desheng, who was standing aside with a guard squad responsible for protecting Huang Zhongting, was a little trembling at the moment, although he had fought a few times before, but at this moment he couldn't control his little mood, he didn't know whether he was trembling with fear or excitement, he turned around and glanced at the high-spirited 75mm barrel of the Krupp Mountain Gun not far away, it was over, and it was even more shaking.

At this time, a small soldier in the main position of the first battalion slowly poked his head out to look at the foggy place not far away, and whispered to a machine gunner who was hiding in the trench to wipe the machine gun: "Brother, wait a minute, let me also hug your machine gun a few times, how about having fun." ”

"Fuck you, you little soldier, you haven't fired a few shots from your rifle, you haven't seen blood, and you want to touch Lao Tzu's machine gun." The Heavy said impatiently.

Next to him, a soldier who was pulling out rows of machine gun bullets from the bullet box chuckled helplessly: "Xiao Ga, you just need to play your rifle, I, as a loader and a second machine gunner, usually want to touch it, but Lao Wang won't let me touch it, so you don't have to think about it." ”

"Your rifle has been dispensed with 200 rounds, enough for you to fight, don't think about anything else." Lao Wang laughed a little angrily.

Xiao Ga sighed.

Then Lao Wang said solemnly to Xiao Ga: "The enemy is coming, Xiao Ga, listen to my brother, squat down and change when you shoot and change bullets, don't be stupid." ”

"Got it, Brother Wang, thank you!" Xiao Ga figured it out a little, and touched the bullet box in his waist, which contained nearly 200 bullets, which was enough to fight for a long time.

The recruit's Xiao Ga grew up in the mountains, and when he was a child, he played with his grandfather's shotgun to hunt, and he was not nervous when he went to the battlefield at the moment, which was different from most recruits.

At this moment, on the battlefield, every veteran is basically whispering to the recruits around him, some of the recruits are still a little nervous, and some have begun to shed tears.

But the battlefield is the battlefield, and nothing will change because these people are nervous and afraid.

A moment later, the vanguard of the Qing army had reached the front of the first battalion not far away, and their voices were faintly heard on the position.

In the command post of the first battalion, Huang Zhongyuan watched the Qing troops getting closer and closer from the telescope, gradually pulled out the holster and slowly raised the pistol in his hand.

At this time, after the vanguard of the Qing army slowly stepped over the default position in his heart, Huang Zhongyuan immediately pulled the trigger and shouted: "Fire"!
