Chapter 683: A New Round of Expansion (Second Update!) )

The battalion headquarters of the third battalion in Dongzhuang is now directly upgraded to the former enemy headquarters of the garrison regiment!

As soon as the two companies of the Second Battalion and the Independent Battalion under the command of Hong Linfeng ended the battle, they hurried here to perform the duties of the chief of staff!

"Report on the losses of the regiment commander, chief of staff, three battalions and one company of guards has been counted!" Huang Sheng walked in and reported with a relaxed face!

"We suffered a total of 148 casualties in the whole attack, 98 were directly killed, and the other 50 were seriously injured and lost their combat effectiveness!"

"It's basically all caused when we set up an offensive position!"

"The devil is a reinforced brigade, and all from the captain down to the captain have been killed by us!"

"Because there are many little devils in it who were stunned and lost their combat effectiveness, so we also captured 49 little devils in this battle, and the highest rank is a captain, the leader of the little devil infantry squadron!"

Li Hao didn't speak immediately, but wrinkled his brows and fell into deep thought!

After a long time, he spoke: "This price is still within our range, and the troops are fighting well!" ”

"Battalion Commander Huang, plus the absenteeism and puppet army prisoners that the regimental headquarters just replenished to you a few days ago, how many people are still far from the full strength of the troops!"

Huang Sheng thought for a moment before replying: "Commander, what kind of meaning do you say about this full formation!" ”

"It's just that the three infantry companies are fully staffed, or the entire three battalions, including the artillery company, have reached full strength!"

"Of course, the entire three battalions are fully staffed!" Li Hao answered without thinking about it!

"This time we took out three brigades of imps, they were well armed, especially heavy machine guns and mortars, and each brigade was equipped with a squadron!"

"Except for the ones that we destroyed with the Flying Thunder Cannon, all the others were captured by us!"

"Also, if we take these three brigades, the little devils will have no troops to stop us from getting back the weapons and ammunition hidden outside Lingqiu City!"

"So from now on, the problem of weapons in our garrison regiment will be gone, and I wonder if there will be more weapons and ammunition by then!"

"I decided to take this opportunity to continue to strengthen the firepower of the troops!"

"The little devils hate us to the core. Now that we've taken out three of their brigades with lightning speed, we're sure to send more troops and heavy weapons to besiege us! ”

"Our garrison regiment has limited strength, and we can only enhance the combat effectiveness of our troops by further strengthening the firepower to meet the more crazy revenge of the little devil!"

Hong Linfeng's eyes immediately began to glow, staring at Li Hao and asking!

"Commander, how to strengthen!"

Li Hao already had an idea in his heart, and without the slightest hesitation, he replied directly: "Do you remember the firepower configuration when our garrison regiment was still an independent battalion?" ”

"I mean, step by step the firepower configuration of the garrison regiment is strengthened to the standard of that time!"

"The platoon is equipped with a machine gun squad, the company is equipped with a fire platoon, the battalion is equipped with an artillery company, and the regiment is equipped with an artillery battalion!"

Huang Sheng is an old man who has been following Li Hao!

He was the company commander when the unit was still an independent battalion, and he knew very well how strong the firepower of the unit was at that time!

After frowning and thinking for a minute, he suddenly interrupted: "Regiment commander, I think the troops can strengthen the firepower configuration to the standard of that time now!" ”

"We only need to leave half of the light and heavy machine guns and mortars we captured from the Fujino Brigade to strengthen the heavy firepower of the three battalions to the standard of the independent battalion!"

Huang Sheng's words made Li Hao more confident, and he made a decision immediately!

"In that case, let's strengthen it now!"

"Chief of Staff, you'll record!"

"In order to meet the needs of the battlefield, the regiment headquarters decided to further strengthen the firepower of the troops!"

"The fire group directly under the infantry platoon has been expanded into a fire squad, equipped with two Type 96 light machine guns, five three-eight large covers, and a full complement of seven people!"

"The fire squad directly under the company has been expanded into a firepower platoon, with two heavy machine gun squads and one grenadier squad under its jurisdiction, equipped with two Type 92 heavy machine guns, three grenadiers, 38 large covers and 15 pieces, and a full complement of 25 people!"

"The fire company directly under the battalion was reorganized into an artillery company, with two mortar platoons and one mountain artillery infantry platoon, equipped with six mortars, two mountain artillery or infantry guns, 38 large covers of 30 articles, and a full strength of 90 people!"

"The infantry squad is full of ten people, equipped with ten three-eight big covers!"

"All battalions are required to complete the reorganization of the troops within one day in accordance with the above requirements!"

"All the weapons and equipment required for the reorganization of the troops will be replenished by the capture of this operation, and the missing personnel will be immediately reported to the regiment headquarters, and the regiment headquarters will uniformly arrange for new recruits to replenish the troops!"

"In addition, in addition to the combat units, each battalion will set up a supplementary company of 100 people!"

"The personnel are provided by the regimental headquarters, and all of them are equipped with 38 big covers, as a supplement to the main force in wartime!"

Hong Linfeng took a deep breath and replied, "Commander." You have to think about it! ”

"According to the expansion requirements you just came to, the strength of each of our main battalions will reach 800 people!"

"The firepower configuration is even more terrifying, including two infantry guns or mountain guns, six mortars, six heavy machine guns, nine grenadiers, and as many as twenty-five light machine guns!"

"Many of the main forces of our Eighth Route Army do not have such good equipment in a regiment!"

Li Hao didn't answer, but stared at Hong Linfeng and asked, "Chief of Staff, you just need to tell me whether the equipment captured by the army last night can meet the expansion needs of the troops!" ”

"Yes!" Hong Linfeng nodded in affirmation!

"That's it!" Li Hao replied very quickly!

"It's a pity that such good equipment is rusty in the warehouse, it's better to equip the troops and kill two more little devils on the battlefield!"

"That's it, tell all the battalion commanders that I want to know how much their strength is short before dark, and then contact the political commissar to replenish them with new soldiers!"

"If you miss this time, it will be at least a month before you replenish recruits online!"

"There are also mountain artillery battalions and cavalry companies, and they will also be restored to full strength!"

"If I'm not mistaken, compared to before the anti-sweep, the number of war horses in our hands is still more!"

Hong Linfeng affirmed: "It's too much! ”

"The troops captured a large number of war horses when they were defending Lingqiu, and they were successfully sent back to the base area before breaking through!"

"Datong has brought back a lot!"

"Together with the cavalry company and all the cavalry communicators of the whole regiment have been equipped, the number of our war horses has exceeded six hundred!"

Li Hao immediately made a decision: "Send a telegram to the political commissar now!" ”

"The cavalry company has reorganized the cavalry battalion, with five cavalry companies under its jurisdiction, with a full strength of 500 cavalry, and the political commissar is responsible for solving the problem of soldiers for them!"

"The artillery battalion should also be dispatched, march day and night to the location where they hide the artillery, and drag all the hidden artillery back to the base area!"

"After the expansion is completed, the artillery battalion will temporarily have three mountain artillery companies under its jurisdiction, equipped with eighteen mountain artillery batteries!"

"That's all for the time being, Chief of Staff, you go and give the order now! Also, if there is news of commandos and reconnaissance companies, send them immediately! ”
