"Instructor, you agreed?" Li Hao didn't expect that the instructor, who had always been cautious, would choose to follow him on an adventure.

Wang Hong smiled: "Battalion commander, you are underestimating me, I also served as a company commander back then, led soldiers to fight, and later became a political work cadre!" ”

"Now that Lingqiu is empty except for the county seat, all other places are empty, and it is the best time for our independent battalion to expand its strength and expand its influence!"

"I think that when the troops attack, the dozens of local cadres just trained by Comrade Peng Chang will also have to keep up, and when the troops occupy a village, the local cadres will take control of a village, establish a base area, and form militia and local guerrilla units!"

"I agree!" Li Hao replied without thinking about it, and began to look impressed at the instructor Wang Hong.

After thinking for a while, he continued: "One more thing! ”

"It just so happens that all the company commanders are here, so we will have a short meeting temporarily, and the theme of the meeting is only one, to study the problems we exposed in the battle of Dongtian Village!"

All the company commanders lowered their heads and fell into deep thought.

In terms of casualty ratio, the Dongtian Village First World War Independent Battalion was a well-deserved winner, killing two little devils at the average sacrifice of one soldier.

However, this is also the battle with the largest number of casualties in a single battle since the formation of the independent battalion!

The deputy battalion commander was seriously wounded, the first company commander was killed, the third company commander was wounded, and more than 400 soldiers were killed.

Thinking that the familiar faces that were still alive under his hands had become a handful, several company commanders couldn't help but show a heartbroken expression.

"Since everyone doesn't speak, then I'll talk!" Li Hao suddenly spoke, breaking the silence around him.

"To tell you the truth, I am very dissatisfied with the battle of Dongtian Village, the casualties of the troops are so large, each of us is responsible!"

"Let's talk about my responsibility first, the enemy was too light on the battlefield, and I didn't expect the devil to dispatch a plane, which led to the serious injury of the deputy battalion commander, the death of a company commander, and the sacrifice of more than sixty soldiers!"

"As for everyone's responsibility, there is also only one, that is, not training their troops well."

"In the street battle, a company of our independent battalion fought against an infantry squad of the Japanese army, and we were in the dark devils, and in the end we were pressed and beaten by the devils, and the soldiers were lost, and I was ashamed to say it!"

Instructor Wang Hong hesitated for a moment and comforted: "Battalion commander, you can't blame everyone for not training the troops well. After all, the training time we give you is very short! ”

Li Hao said angrily: "Instructor, don't speak for them, if it weren't for this reason, I would have removed their company commander from the battlefield, and I wouldn't wait until this time to scold them!" ”

Seeing that everyone's heads were getting lower and lower, Li Hao turned around and continued to shout.

"Lift your head up for me! Manly man, if we didn't do it well this time, let's just do it next time! ”

"When I go back, I always remember one sentence, sweat more in peacetime, and bleed less in wartime. We must strengthen the training of the troops, ammunition, food supplies, and I will give you whatever we lack, but we must train the troops well! ”

Xiao Yuan was the first to stand up and replied with a firm face: "Rest assured, battalion commander, the guard company guarantees to live up to your expectations and form combat effectiveness in the shortest possible time!" ”

"So do we!" Several other company commanders stood up and shouted.

Li Hao waved his hand to stop everyone and continued.

"In addition to strengthening training, I have another decision to further strengthen the company platoon firepower of our separate battalion!"

"If you want to train the troops to be like devils, it will definitely be impossible overnight, and it is impossible for the little devils to give us so much time!"

"But fighting with the little devils can't be avoided, in order to ensure that a main company of our independent battalion can resist the devils and a reinforced squad, I decided to make up for the lack of combat effectiveness of the troops by strengthening the firepower of the troop company!"

"The infantry squad has the same establishment, ten overtime leaders, equipped with ten three-eight covers and a melee pistol!"

"The infantry platoon canceled the establishment of machine gun groups, added a firepower squad, and had two machine gun groups and two grenadier groups under its jurisdiction, with a full strength of thirteen people, equipped with two crooked handles, two grenadiers, eight three-eight large covers, and a melee pistol!"

"The infantry company has abolished the establishment of the firepower squad and the small artillery squad, added a firepower platoon, and has under the jurisdiction of a machine gun squad with two Type 92 heavy machine guns, a mortar squad with two 81 mm caliber mortars, and an ammunition supply squad to transport and replenish ammunition for heavy machine guns and mortars!"

"The guard squad directly under the infantry company is a reinforced squad, and a machine gun group and a grenadier squad are added on the basis of the infantry squad, similar to the squad of little devils fighting independently!"

"In this way, one of our infantry companies has two 81 mm caliber mortars, two Type 92 heavy machine guns, seven crooked handles, seven grenadiers, and more than 100 three-eight large covers, and in terms of firepower, it is absolutely a reinforced infantry squad of the Japanese army!"

Everyone was frightened by Li Hao's generosity, and Wang Hong was no exception!

"Infantry platoons are armed with light machine guns and grenadiers, and infantry companies are equipped with heavy machine guns and medium mortars. Not to mention that the Eighth Route Army does not have such troops, it is not necessarily possible to find such a bold force in the entire Chinese army! ”

But shock is shock, Wang Hong did not object.

Because the independent battalion has such capital to equip the troops with such luxurious equipment.

So many light and heavy machine guns and mortars were captured in the First Battle of Dongtian Village, and the military sub-district had ordered all weapons to remain in the independent battalion.

So much equipment, instead of putting them in warehouses to rust, it is better to take out the armed forces and strengthen the firepower of the troops.

It can not only fight devils, but also reduce the casualties of the troops, killing two birds with one stone.

There is no commander who does not like the troops in his hands to become stronger, so several infantry company commanders are very excited, and their faces are full of smiles.

The exceptions were Yuan Qingfeng, the commander of the artillery company, and Chen Bing, the commander of the fire company.

His brows were furrowed, and his face was full of sadness.

Chen Bing couldn't help but ask: "Battalion commander, the heavy machine guns have been assigned to each infantry company, what equipment does the firepower company use!" ”

Li Hao replied without thinking about it: "The firepower company is disbanded!" ”

"Heavy machine guns are dispersed to the companies, so they can give full play to their firepower advantage, and they will cooperate better with the infantry."

"As for you, Chen Bing, the commander of the first company, Comrade Jiang Tianhong, sacrificed, I decided to let you go up and serve as the commander of the first company!"

"After all the squad and platoon cadres of the military sub-division to support us are in place, I will re-establish the formation of the first company and hand it over to you to command!"

The sadness on Chen Bing's face was gone.

Compared with the commander of the firepower company, the commander of the main company obviously has more prospects for development.

replied with a firm face: "Don't worry, battalion commander, I, Chen Bing, will definitely not disappoint everyone, take a good company!" ”

"What about me?" Yuan Qingfeng, the commander of the artillery company, was also anxious, and then asked.

"Of course you continue to do your old job, but change the name and change the artillery company to the mountain artillery company!"

"There are three platoons, each platoon has two artillery squads, which are equipped with a 75-caliber mountain gun and an ammunition supply squad, assist the two artillery squads in transporting ammunition supplies in peacetime, and give two artillery squads a guard in wartime to protect them!"
