The first is the firearms.

The detachment did not capture many guns this time, and most of them were broken copper and iron that needed to be repaired before they could be used.

The reasons are manifold.

On the one hand, in order to reduce casualties, Zhang Ran directly adopted the method of flying thunder artillery to wash the ground in most of the battles in which the detachment itself participated this time.

Although this simple and crude approach has effectively reduced casualties, the degree of weapon destruction has also increased significantly.

At the same time, this also has a lot to do with the involvement of Pu Yuan, Zhong Gu Xiangyang, Song Tao and others.

For example, when the Wudu was played, the detachment was able to capture more than 200 guns, but Gu Xiangyang and other soldiers of the independent regiment took advantage of the excitement of everyone's fight and quietly grabbed the guns themselves, which suddenly turned the detachment's seizure from more than 200 to more than 100......

If it was in the past, Zhang Ran would never be polite to Gu Xiangyang, even if he was robbed by the other party, he would definitely snatch it back-the big fat meat in his own bowl, so could it still let it grow wings and fly by itself?

But this time, Zhang Ran didn't have the same knowledge as Gu Xiangyang at all.

First of all, the equipment level of the detachment has reached an extremely high level, and the most that the guns captured this time are to let the soldiers who are not very good guns change their clothes, and the rest will be used to equip the militia in the base area......

Zhang Ran is of course willing to equip the militia in the base area with guns, but he doesn't have to let the militiamen's equipment level exceed that of the main force of the Eighth Route Army.

If the main force is not as well equipped as the militia of the detachment, where will the face of the main force be placed?

Therefore, although Zhang Ran will not take the initiative to let Li Dakou call the militia to exchange the good guns in his hands for the main force, so that the main force can upgrade its equipment, but Gu Xiangyang has grabbed the equipment in his hand, and he will not have to be the villain, and he must be deducted from the other party's hands.

This is only the performance of Wudu, and the main force of the battle is based on the detachment, not to mention other battles such as the annihilation of Fujita.

As soon as the devil finished fighting, the independent regiment rushed over to grab the equipment with a large number of people, and the strength was like a hungry wolf grabbing food......

In this case, the team that is recognized as the most arrogant and simply rich team of all, where is Zhang Ran embarrassed to send someone to rob the other party?

Therefore, for these reasons, the detachment's seizures this time were much worse than before.

However, the amount of seizures is not much, and it is only relative to the number of enemies killed, and it is by no means that the detachment is simply making a loss-making deal in terms of seizures this time!

If you don't talk about it on the detachment's side, let's talk about the militia.

The number of militiamen, minfu, and Cangshui counties of Dongjiang and Cangshui who followed the detachment this time together has long exceeded 8,000, and the number of guns in the hands of the militia and civilians at the time of departure is about 1,000 guns.

But the number of guns counted after the battle had exceeded the 2,000 mark - not counting the 1,000 or so that had been destroyed and sent to the blacksmith for repairs!

These 1,000 guns are scraped out of those that cannot be repaired or can only be dismantled for accessories, and at least 800 guns can be repaired, which is definitely more than enough!

At that time, the number of armed militia in the base area will be close to 2,000 people, plus the detachment itself - that is, nearly 3,000 armed forces!

That's far more than the strength of a regiment!

Thinking of these, Zhang Ran's teeth are happy!

I think that when I first came to Yanggou Village, I had one gun per person, but now in just half a year, I have pulled up a team of more than 3,000 people and controlled the land of the two counties!

That mood is like Zhu Bajie eating ginseng fruit, cool and crooked!

"Captain, we have so many guns, the establishment of this team should also be changed, right?"

Wang Lao Gui Shi Yuan Thin Monkey and the others said with a smile: "If you are not satisfied with the editor, the foundation of the two regiments should be enough!" ”

I thought that as long as two regiments were really established, then I would be waiting for these old people, the regiment commander and deputy regiment commander, how could I get a battalion commander to have fun and go out so majestic......

Thinking of this, several people are so happy that they can't see their eyes!

"Tuan Tuan Tuan, do you think that as long as someone has a gun, they can set up as many regiments as they want?"

Kang Ting said angrily: "Forget about the general team, once the establishment exceeds the regiment, then you have to have a number, and you have to obey the orders of the peak at any time - the peak said, no matter whether it is reasonable or not, let us all die on the position, then we have to die on the position, and we have to do military law if we take a step back...... What do you want to do? ”

“……”

As soon as everyone heard this, they immediately withered, and said in their hearts that if that was the case, it would be better to go directly to the leader of the detachment.

Although the official rank is not high and not so prestigious, the degree of freedom is obviously much higher - just like now, the entire detachment obeys Zhang Ran's command, and many times Zhang Ran will try to reduce the casualties of the team as the premise, and nothing else.

They don't want to ruin their lives just because the official university says that the scenery is good!

Zhang Ran glanced at Kang Ting, he knew that this guy said this, in addition to relieving himself, he also wanted to scare everyone to maintain more autonomy in the team.

These are necessary.

Of course, even if Kang Ting doesn't say it, Zhang Ran will never make the scale of the regular team too big.

On the one hand, if the size of the detachment is increased further, then more soldiers will have to be out of production, which will be too great a burden on the detachment itself!

On the other hand, because the team's bright strength is too great, it is easy to be tailored if it is targeted by devils, and it is inconvenient for the detachment to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger!

Therefore, it is absolutely wisest for the detachment to hide more of the available forces among the people at present.

However, although the establishment of the team is not going to be expanded, with nearly 2,000 militiamen with guns in their hands, Zhang Ran does not intend to let them continue to wander freely!

According to Zhang Ran's plan, these militiamen are ready to be turned into semi-full-time quasi-soldiers, and when they are busy with farming, these militiamen go home to farm, and in peacetime, they will normalize military training in batches!

In terms of military salaries, their families supply a part, and then the detachment is responsible for a part.

"In short, I hope that this part of the militia will have guns, they are one of the best fighters in my detachment, and when they put down their guns, they will be ordinary people again!"

Zhang Ran finally concluded.

Everyone nodded.

Although everyone was a little disappointed that their desire to be a high-ranking official was shattered, they were still very happy when they thought that the strength of the base area had not weakened because of this, but was growing steadily.

The fact that there are not enough guns seized is multifaceted, and there are also detachments that do not care too much about subjective reasons.

But what other detachments care about, it's all full of harvest!

For example, machine guns, such as radios, such as those motorcycles that were completely blown up, such as other ......

A total of two radio stations were seized!

In addition to the radio station of the Ueno Cavalry captured in the Beihe Corridor, Wang Laogui also captured one in Lu County.

Compared with the radio station in the Beihe Corridor, the radio station in Lu County was hardly damaged because the Japanese troops stationed in Lu County were killed by flying thunder guns while using the radio station, and they did not even have a chance to destroy it.

Zhang Ran, Kang Ting and others didn't recognize the radio station before and almost picked up a cheap price for Kang Ting, it was because the radio station was seriously damaged!

And this radio station in Lu County, Wang Laogui, Wang Kai and others didn't recognize it, that is, purely because they didn't know the goods, they were directly transported back to the base area as broken copper and iron, and the team came back to find it.

"With this radio station, it will be much easier for the detachment to contact the detachment in the future!"

Looking at this radio station, Wang Lao and Wang Kai were smiling - I think that it is not until there are such high-tech things that this detachment is really an armed force!

In fact, Zhang Ren didn't want to deploy this radio station in Cangshui, he wanted to allocate it to the guerrillas.

Cangshui and the detachment are more than 100 kilometers away, and it is a few days away.

But because there is a coal mine, the information between the two counties can be transmitted almost at any time, even if there is some emergency, then there is the Dongcang Highway, and the information can be transmitted in most of the day.

But the Lingjiang Yangquan guerrillas are different, out of Cangshui, the mountains are high and the forests are dense, and the transmission of intelligence has to rely on two legs, if there is any emergency, even if the whole process is urgent, it is estimated that it will take several days to make a trip, and half a month has passed back and forth!

It's just that seeing Wang Laogui, Wang Kai and others hugging this radio station with an obscene look like a yellow flower girl, Zhang Ran finally failed to open his mouth.

In the final analysis, no matter how obedient and dependent the guerrillas of Sun Hongzhong's Tu army were to the detachment, they could be regarded as their own people.

But the Cangshui detachment of Wang Laogui and others is their own people who are intimate and close to their lungs in the real sense.

So Zhang Ran finally made a decision that although it didn't look right, it was more emotional, that is, in the end, he still gave the radio station equipment to Cangshui.

If you have a radio station, you have to have a password.

If the intelligence is not encrypted, then once it is intercepted by the Japanese army, it will be easily deciphered!

"In terms of the decipherment of radio information, we have suffered a lot of losses from the little devils - we must study this contact code!"

Kang Ting solemnly reminded Zhang Ran.

"Hmph, the code designed by Lao Tzu, borrow a bunch of pig brains from his little devil, and they don't want to decipher it!"

Zhang Ran rolled his eyes and chin to the sky, arrogant!

The decipherment of the code is based on the laws of language, and if something completely different from the laws of the enemy's language is used as the code, it will be difficult to decipher!

What type of password Gu Xiangyang used when he contacted Liu Qingpu Yuanzhong, Zhang Ran didn't look at it, and of course that guy couldn't show it to him.

However, Zhang Ran doesn't need a password for Liu Qingbu's contact, and he can definitely easily design a suitable and extremely convenient password, and everything is ready-made!

That is to use pinyin as a password!

Zhang Ran can be sure that this password is definitely much easier to use than Liu Qingbu's contact password, and don't even think about deciphering it if you are tired of the little devils!
