Chapter 471: Hot Gift (Second Update!) )
Ten days ago, the unit received an order for reorganization, and the second brigade was officially reorganized into the second regiment of the military division.
The guards rushed to the headquarters in a hurry like a stimulant, and before the people entered, the excited voice reached the ears of the regiment commander!
"Commander...... The commander of the first battalion Peng is back, and they also brought dozens of carts of things! ”
The regimental commander rubbed up from his seat and walked out of the headquarters.
A few days ago, he received the news that the independent battalion won the anti-sweep, completely annihilated the Japanese puppet army's sweeping troops, and the independent battalion was expanded into an independent regiment!
As a veteran regiment commander of a military subdivision, he witnessed the whole process of Li Hao's promotion from company commander to regiment commander within one year, and the rocket-like promotion speed, it is impossible not to envy!
But he was not jealous, Li Hao's exploits were there, and he was promoted to the head of the regiment.
Besides, according to the commander, it won't be long before his second regiment will be expanded into the second brigade, but the opportunity is not yet ripe, and he has not given an order for fear of causing a backlash from Chongqing.
But the commander has already secretly ordered three regiments to expand the forces more than once!
Today, the Second Regiment has expanded from the initial four battalions to six battalions, with a total strength of nearly 3,000 troops.
But there is one problem, and one that all Eighth Route Armies face: too few weapons!
In addition to the three main battalions, the three newly formed battalions were all several fighters with one rifle!
As for light and heavy machine guns, there are even less, each battalion has only one crooked handle to support the façade, and the ammunition is even more pitiful!
So in the past few days, he has been looking forward to Peng Yunfeng coming back soon, and he will bring more weapons back to solve the urgent needs of the second regiment now.
But he also has a concern that the expansion of the independent battalion into the independent regiment also requires a lot of weapons and equipment!
Although they completely annihilated the Japanese puppet army sweeping troops, the battle was attritional, and the equipment captured in the end would definitely not be too much!
If the Independent Regiment had left most of the weapons to augment the troops, the battalion would certainly not have too many weapons to bring back.
How much weapons and equipment the first battalion brought back is now about to be officially revealed, and as the head of the second regiment, the regiment commander has to be anxious!
"Hello Commander!"
As soon as Peng Yunfeng walked to the entrance of the station, he saw the head of the regiment rushing over, and hurriedly saluted and reported!
"Okay, it's good that you're not hurt!" The head of the regiment patted Peng Yunfeng on the shoulder and replied.
But after seeing that Peng Yunfeng was missing a large number of troops behind him, his face obviously became solemn: "Why are there so many fewer troops in the army?" Are the casualties high? ”
Peng Yunfeng hurriedly reported: "More than 140 people were sacrificed, and there were more than 40 seriously wounded, I took the initiative to leave them in the independent regiment and ask the regiment commander to punish them!" ”
The regiment commander knew that Peng Yunfeng could not be untargeted and leave dozens of seriously wounded people behind for no reason, so he did not speak immediately, but pointed to the cart at the back of the army and asked, "What is on the car?" Why are there so many big cars? ”
Peng Yunfeng's face flashed with excitement and replied: "Regiment Leader, the things above are too important, can you go to the regiment headquarters and report again!" ”
In the regimental headquarters, the regiment commander held a list in his hand and read it back and forth almost three times without putting it down, and his face was full of shock!
After a long time, he asked Peng Yunfeng rhetorically, "Did you really bring back so many weapons on the list?" ”
Peng Yunfeng replied very affirmatively: "Actually, there should be more than this!" ”
"After the battle, the troops directly on the battlefield to replenish the lost ammunition, now each soldier of the first battalion has one hundred and twenty rounds of ammunition and three grenades, and each machine gun is equipped with five hundred rounds of ammunition! If you count these ammunition, there should be 40,000 more rounds! ”
"There are also more grenades and grenades than two thousand!"
"There are also seventy-nine bullets, many of which are loaded in bullet belts, there is no detailed statistics, but there must be only a lot more!"
"Hiss ......"
The regimental commander gasped and exclaimed, "So many? ”
"Originally, I thought it would be good if you could bring back two or three hundred rifles, so we just stayed by ourselves to supplement the three battalions that had just been expanded."
"I didn't expect you to bring back so much!"
"And Li Hao of the Independent Regiment, he is also too generous!"
"Just send rifles, how can you send even light and heavy machine guns and mortars, and send so many at once!"
After Peng Yunfeng saw the equipment level of the independent regiment, his courage and ambition also increased, and he proposed: "Regiment commander, it's a bit much, but our second regiment can still eat!" ”
"Otherwise, we will leave all this equipment behind, and with this batch of equipment, not only will we have the weapons of the three newly formed battalions, but we can also form two more battalions, and we can also form another artillery company and a heavy machine gun company!"
The head of the regiment glared at Peng Yunfeng fiercely and replied, "Stay all of them, do you really dare to think about it?" ”
"Absolutely not, this gift is too hot, our second group must not swallow it alone, and we can't swallow it!"
"If you really do everything you say, the next time I go back and forth to the military division, the other two regiment commanders won't scold me to death!"
The political commissar, who had not spoken, spoke: "The regiment commander is right, this is indeed a hot gift, and it is impossible for our second regiment to swallow it alone." ”
"I propose to keep one-third, and all the rest will be handed over to the military division for the commander to distribute!"
Peng Yunfeng was anxious, and complained unwillingly: "It's only a third? Could it be too little! ”
"Regiment commander, political commissar, no matter how you divide it, those two mountain cannons must be left behind. That's what I cheekily asked Commander Li of the Independent Regiment, and it was he who named us to form a mountain artillery platoon for the Second Regiment, which was specially used to attack fortified positions! ”
"Also, these weapons and ammunition can be said to be exchanged for the lives of more than 100 soldiers in a battalion to a certain extent! And those seriously wounded, without their sacrifices, the independent regiment would not have been able to share so many of our weapons and equipment! ”
"It's okay for them to ask for weapons, the independent regiment is short of soldiers now, let them exchange the veterans themselves!"
The regiment commander thought for a long time and finally made a decision: "Battalion Commander Peng is right, leaving only one-third is too little, but it is unrealistic to leave all of them!" ”
"Commissar, what do you think of my distribution plan: we will keep four heavy machine guns and hand over six. Four mortars were left, six were surrendered, ten light machine guns were left, twenty were surrendered, six hundred rifles were surrendered, and all the rest were left, and the ammunition was divided according to this ratio! But the two mountain guns and all the shells were left, as were the grenades and grenades, as compensation for the troops of our second regiment! ”
"I agree!" The commissar quickly made a decision!
Seeing that Peng Yunfeng's face looked a little better, the regiment commander continued: "Camp Commander Peng, we must learn to be content!" ”
"Although nearly two-thirds of the weapons have been handed in, the remaining equipment is enough for our second regiment to have one gun, and the three newly formed battalions can each get three crooked handles and one heavy machine gun!"
"There are also mountain artillery and mortars, plus our own mortars, we can already form two mortar companies, a mountain artillery platoon, almost an artillery battalion, and we also have the ability to attack fortifications, which is already unique in the military division!"
"And your battalion, recruit troops as soon as possible to make up for the shortfall in the troops, and hand over half of the ammunition you brought back, just 20,000 rounds, and keep the grenades and grenades yourself!"
Peng Yunfeng immediately turned into a bitter gourd face, and just as he wanted to open his mouth to refuse, the head of the regiment had already interrupted: "Don't find a reason, you are my old subordinate, and I know how to be a person!" If I'm not mistaken, I seem to have seen a lot of machine guns and grenadiers in the first battalion just now, and you kid must have hidden smuggling goods, either 20,000 rounds of ammunition, or take out all the smuggled goods! ”
Peng Yunfeng hurriedly changed his words and replied: "Don't worry, the regiment commander, I will carry out the order, and I will send 20,000 rounds of ammunition to the regiment headquarters after I go back!" ”
