It's just that no matter how Li Ziyuan coerces and lures, these two are old gods. Except for nodding and agreeing to study it, he refused to back down even a point. In the end, Li Ziyuan patted his chest and promised that he would definitely not make a fuss about it, and he would definitely not engage in disguised conscription, and the two finally agreed to take the second district as a trial first.

Seeing that the two finally nodded and agreed, Li Ziyuan and Ma Yongcheng's hearts really relaxed. And Ma Yongcheng, who had been prepared for Liu Yanlai and Chang Juan's mentality, had already reminded Li Ziyuan that this matter should not be in a hurry to operate. Anyway, it's just taking the opportunity to touch the old bottom, but don't be too anxious.

After the two finally nodded, Li Ziyuan was also patient, and asked Ma Yongcheng to take some of the veterans who were transferred out to start rotation training for young adults between the ages of 16 and 30 in various villages in the second district. Starting with the most basic queues, military training is carried out. Shooting, bomb throwing, individual tactics, all the same.

And after seeing that the rotation training of school-age young adults in the second district was completed, Li Ziyuan did what he said and did not engage in disguised conscription. Liu Yanlai, who didn't know that Li Ziyuan and Ma Yongcheng had set such a big trap for himself, finally nodded and agreed to expand the rotation training in the first and third districts.

I didn't know that this was Li Ziyuan and Ma Yongcheng, two guys, who were touching Liu Yanlai, the old man in his jurisdiction. It is not clear that when various districts mobilized young and middle-aged people for rotation training, Ma Yongcheng had already made a detailed record of the number of suitable soldiers in each village, and even the age and family situation.

At the same time, Ma Yongcheng, who is very eloquent, during this period of rotation training, educated these young adults as if they were not soldiers, and they were a little sorry for the country, the nation, and their parents. Good iron must be nailed, good men must be soldiers, and when they are soldiers, they will be the Eighth Route Army, which has become a slogan that these young adults must shout after getting up every day.

Although the Eighth Route Army has a strong mobilization ability, this brainwashing mobilization mode is probably unique in the whole army. Hearing these slogans, Li Ziyuan remembered what he saw in his previous life when he saw those MLM organizations were brainwashed. This Ma Yongcheng is very skilled, if it is left behind for decades, he is definitely a good hand at pyramid schemes.

However, no matter what Ma Yongcheng does, it will be beneficial to Li Ziyuan for himself. So Li Ziyuan is quite free of Ma Yongcheng in this matter, and it can even be said that he doesn't worry about it at all. In addition to taking out some weapons for training, Li Ziyuan also gritted his teeth and took out some bullets. In order to ensure that these young adults who are trained have the opportunity to shoot live ammunition.

Ma Yongcheng took advantage of this opportunity to thoroughly understand the potential of the soldiers in the eastern mountainous area of Hubei County. How many young adults are suitable for serving as soldiers in each village and district, and even down to the point that each household has a son, Ma Yongcheng knows very clearly. Through a month and a half of training in each district, the militias in each village in the three districts were basically reorganized.

The district teams in the three districts have also been reorganized. In this way, the relatively wealthy weapons are somewhat insufficient. Obtaining weapons for a large increase in the militia and the reorganization of several district squads has become a reality that Li Ziyuan needs to face. However, in this matter, Li Ziyuan obviously has his own plans.

While Ma Yongcheng was training young adults, Li Ziyuan put his main energy on the integration and training of the troops, as well as the reconnaissance of the movements of the Japanese puppet army outside the mountains. The idea of getting enough weapons for the militia seemed to be a more urgent matter on the surface, but Li Ziyuan seemed a little unhurried.

In order to speed up the formation of the troops as soon as possible, Li Ziyuan maintained the original training intensity. At the same time, through Wang Cheng, who had just become his brother-in-law, he seconded several engineers from the division to assist him in earthwork and blasting training. A group of veterans were selected and sent to study in the military sub-district teaching team.

In addition to training troops, Li Ziyuan turned his brain to the mines that played a key role in the previous battle against the Okazaki detachment and dragged it down. This time, he jumped out of the outside line to fight, and he captured a batch of explosives at the Japanese airfields in Pingchuan and Jingjiazhuang. In addition to handing over most of it, he also kept a third on hand.

However, the explosives were there, but the fuse was something that Li Ziyuan could not solve by himself. He had to work hard, but he could only meet part of his needs. For the rest of the fuses, he could only find a way to ask his superiors for help. After all, his own limited ability alone could not solve enough raw materials to make a fuse.

As a result of Li Ziyuan's external operations, almost the cotton and cloth of the entire divisional troops in winter clothing were solved. At Li Ziyuan's request, the commander of the military sub-division, who was very satisfied, went to the military factory of the headquarters in person and brought Li Ziyuan a batch of fuse tubes for improved grenades.

Li Ziyuan didn't want grenades, and he specially asked for a fuse tube, which surprised the Ministry of Military Industry and met his needs as much as possible. After all, the explosives handed over by Li Ziyuan this time have solved some of the problems in the production of weapons by the Ministry of Military Industry. And what Li Ziyuan wanted was not a grenade, but a fuse that was easy to solve.

In addition, the commander of the Ludong Army Division came forward, and the Ministry of Military Industry still gave Li Ziyuan a one-time improvement of 300 grenade fuses according to his requirements. This type of fuze has no delay function and is almost a pull-on. However, because it is a pull-hair grenade, it is much more sensitive than the fuse of the tripping mine originally used in the base area.

I got a fuse, and I had enough explosives on hand. Li Ziyuan did not follow the requirements of his superiors to make bulky iron and stone mines. Instead, a large number of wooden mines were manufactured using the most abundant timber in the region. It was only with explosives and Japanese canned boxes that a small number of iron pressurized mines were made.

The last time he fought against the Okazaki detachment, the wooden mines he made himself worked well. A wounded soldier of the Japanese army needs to be carried by four people. Feeding a disabled soldier will also cause a great burden on the Japanese state, not counting the psychological impact on the Japanese army.

In many cases, injuries from explosions, to be precise, crippled by explosions, were more important than direct deaths, which had a greater impact on the morale and combat effectiveness of the Japanese army. This time, he had so much explosive power in his hands at once, far exceeding the yellow explosives of black powder. If he didn't use these explosives to the fullest, he felt sorry for himself.

In addition to creating a large number of mines themselves, on the basis of the previous operation, Li Ziyuan and Guo Laosan also developed a variety of methods for using landmines, especially the method of joint use with traps. Li Ziyuan's attitude was that these mines could only exert their greatest power if they were planted in places that the Japanese army could not think of.

It's just that while seizing the time to train the troops, he is trying to make as many mines as possible, and at the same time he is trying his best to deal with Li Ziyuan, who is retaliated by the Japanese army. I felt very surprised that after suffering such a big loss this time, the Japanese puppet army outside the mountain was actually very honest. It seemed calm for a long time.

Although more than two months have passed, the intelligence from outside the mountain shows that the Japanese puppet army has not made any major moves except for strengthening the vigilance of some important parts. But Li Ziyuan, who was still a little uneasy, in addition to constantly urging Liu Yan to ask for information, still took people out of the mountain to reconnoiter several times.

After just some reconnaissance, Li Ziyuan found that in addition to the two strongholds of Luoma and Qiaokou, the number of troops deployed by the puppet Hubei garrison has obviously increased a lot. And in addition to being busy training the newly expanded recruits, the entire territory of Hubei is actually quite calm.

At the same time, judging from the intelligence from all sides, it is obvious that at least in the short term, the Japanese army has no big plans for the time being, except for making every effort to reorganize the pseudo-garrison. Even the Japanese army in Changzhi did not take any action except for strengthening the vigilance force in the middle and important parts. The current situation in the entire Hubei can be described as very calm.

However, what made Li Ziyuan a little puzzled was that although there were still heavy losses this time, the Japanese army, which had always distrusted the puppet army. But it doesn't seem to have lowered his trust in Wang Tieshi. Not only did it unexpectedly complete the repair in the shortest possible time, but it also expanded the puppet Hubei Garrison into another squadron.

What made Li Ziyuan feel a little incredible was that the puppet Hubei Garrison not only completed the renovation and expansion in the shortest possible time, but also replaced it with a full set of Japanese-made weapons. Not only did the rifle change from the original miscellaneous weapons, but it was replaced by a Japanese-made Murata 22 rifle.

Each squadron was also armed with three, it is not known whether it was a trophy captured on the battlefield in China, or a copy of the Lewis light machine gun by the Japanese themselves. The original miscellaneous 79-caliber heavy machine guns were also replaced with Japanese-made Meiji 38-style 65 heavy machine guns, and the number has increased to nine.

This is similar to the general use of the weapons of the squadron captured by the Japanese army, or some old weapons that I don't know where to get them. They have all kinds of equipment, and they are very messy, and the puppet armies in other places are obviously different. Compared with the messy weapons of the original Hubei Garrison, the weapons issued by the Japanese army to the pseudo-Hubei Garrison this time also look quite neat.

It turned out that the puppet garrisons in Shanxi generally used the weapons of the Jin Sui Army captured by the Japanese army, or the weapons of Chongqing, and the weapons and equipment seemed very chaotic. Basically, the Japanese took whatever guns they issued, and they didn't give these guys a choice at all.

It's just that because of the weapons produced by the Jin Suijun before the war, most of the rifles are imitation 38-type rifles, except for a small number of imitation Hanyang-made rifles, and basically general-purpose 38-type rifle bullets. In addition, after the Japanese army entered Shanxi, a lot of weapons of the Jin Sui army were captured after several major battles.

Therefore, the puppet armies in the southeast of Jin, except for some of the troops who surrendered to the enemy before being equipped with miscellaneous weapons and some 79 rifles, most of them were issued with Jin-made weapons. Because the weapons and equipment of the captured Jin Sui Army were distributed to the puppet army, they were common to the weapons and bullets used by the Japanese army themselves, and they could also reduce the supply pressure of the Japanese army.

But perhaps out of serious distrust, whether it is the pseudo-garrisons of the counties or the pseudo-Jin Nanjian**, they are rarely equipped with the Japanese army's own weapons. Even if it is a weapon eliminated by the Japanese army, it is rarely equipped with the puppet army. Type 38 rifles are rarely given, let alone Meiji 38 heavy machine guns.

It is better to destroy the weapons in hand than to destroy the weapons in the hands when the battle is unfavorable. As well as its own excellent military quality, it is difficult to be completely eliminated, and it is difficult to capture weapons and ammunition for the Japanese army. At present, the puppet army around the entire Taihang Mountain base area, because of insufficient training and morale, is always given priority by the Eighth Route Army, and has almost become an important source of ammunition replenishment for the Eighth Route Army.

Under such circumstances, the Japanese army would not hand over their weapons and ammunition to the puppet army. This time, it was normal for one side to equip a pseudo-county garrison brigade with a Japanese-made rifle, although it was an old-fashioned rifle that had already been eliminated by the Japanese army, which caused Li Ziyuan's confusion and incomprehension.
