"Thank you brigade commander for the compliments, these are the results of the comrades' joint efforts!" Wang Ping said modestly.

The brigade commander waved his hand and replied: "What should be your credit is your credit, there is nothing to be modest." You only told me in the telegram about the general situation of the new group, and now that I am here, I want to know the specific situation, the more detailed the better! ”

"Yes! Brigade! Wang Ping replied immediately.

"To be precise, there are a total of 1,582 prisoners in our hands, and after this period of mobilization, 1,149 people are willing to join our Eighth Route Army, and more than 200 people are hesitating!"

"After screening, 966 of those prisoners who were willing to join our Eighth Route Army agreed to the conditions for joining the Eighth Route Army, and the remaining one or two hundred were unable to join the main force because of old age or injuries and other reasons. But I intend to organize them into the logistics units of our new regiment and strive to establish the new regiment's own logistical support! ”

"As long as the brigade headquarters agrees to the reorganization plan of the new regiment, these more than 900 recruits will be able to immediately supplement the unit for cooperative training!"

After thinking about it, Brigade Commander Chen replied: "With the original strength of the new regiment, that is, more than 1,200 people are smaller, which is exactly the establishment of a regiment. How are you going to reorganize, to be specific, the more detailed the better! ”

"First organized into three main battalions, each main battalion includes three main companies, a heavy machine gun platoon, and a guard platoon, with a total strength of five hundred people!"

"Each main company includes three combat platoons, a guard squad directly under it, and a small artillery squad, that is, the devil's grenadier squad! A cooking squad, plus the cadres of the company headquarters, clerks, a total strength of one hundred and fifty people! ”

"The combat platoon includes three infantry squads of ten people, a machine gun squad, plus the chief and deputy squad leaders, a total of 35 people!"

"The regimental units include a recruit battalion, a guard company, an artillery company, a baggage transport company, an engineer platoon, a communications platoon, a health clinic, ......"

"The total strength of the whole regiment is tentatively set at 2,000 people!"

The brigade commander nodded in affirmation: "The establishment is very complete, I have nothing to say." But you only have more than 1,200 people in your hands, how can you solve the problem of the remaining seven or eight hundred! ”

Wang Ping immediately expressed his thoughts: "I plan to let one, two, two battalions, guard companies, and artillery companies be fully staffed first, and other battalions and companies will put up shelves. When there are new recruits in the future, they will directly complete the formation of combat effectiveness! ”

"Yes, just do as you say, I don't have any opinion. Personnel appointments should also be selected from among the existing cadres of the new regiment as much as possible, and there is also a shortage of cadres at the brigade headquarters, so it is impossible to send them to you. You make sure first, just give me the report after you have made sure of it, and I'll find the political commissar to settle it down for you! ”

For the next two days, Wang Ping locked himself up in the headquarters.

Because the political commissar and regiment commander of the new regiment are all shoulder-to-shoulder, and the new regiment does not have a chief of staff, who will be the battalion commander and who will be the company commander can only be decided by Wang Ping alone.

The only thing that makes Wang Ping happy is that the backbone of the new regiment is still there, and among the puppet troops who are willing to join the Eighth Route Army, many of them are former low-level officers of the Jinsui Army, well-trained, and there is no problem at all with the platoon commander.

The brigade commander was not idle, and based on the information collected by the new regiment outside the mountain, he studied the map for two full days.

"Brigade commander, this is the appointment of the new regiment that I have confirmed, have you seen it?" Wang Ping interrupted the brigade commander who was thinking, and then sent the list to the brigade commander!

"Let Zhong Chenggong be the chief of staff of the new regiment, will the promotion be faster!" As soon as he looked at the beginning, the brigade commander asked with a frown.

Seeing that Wang Ping didn't speak, the brigade commander continued to ask: "Can you be promoted in terms of ability, after all, two months ago he was only a deputy battalion commander." The deputy battalion commander and the regimental chief of staff are two completely unrelated positions? ”

Wang Ping was very optimistic about Zhong Chenggong, and directly affirmed: "Half a month ago, the heat may have been a little worse, but after this anti-encirclement and suppression, he has made great progress. Let him experience two months in the position of chief of staff, and he will definitely be competent! ”

The brigade commander immediately understood the meaning of Wang Ping's words: "Okay, then it's him!" ”

The next battalion commander, the company commander, was too far away from the brigade commander, and after just a glance, the brigade commander agreed.

"Bang......" At this moment, a faint burst of gunfire suddenly came.

Both Wang Ping and Brigade Commander Chen, both of them were veterans of the battlefield, and they could tell from the sound that the gunfire was coming from at least two kilometers away. Therefore, after glancing at each other, neither of them panicked.

However, as the host, the brigade commander is here, and Wang Ping must ensure the absolute safety of the station.

"Brigade commander, don't worry, I will find out what is going on immediately, and absolutely guarantee the safety of the station."

In the next ten minutes, Wang Ping heard several gunshots one after another, from far to near, and the sound became louder and louder. But just as he sent Li Wen over and was about to let him find out what was going on, the intermittent gunfire stopped all of a sudden.

In the end, Li Wen had not yet returned, and Zhong Chenggong, who was teaching the prisoners in the prisoner camp, rushed back first.

"Regiment commander, the gunfire just now must have been fought by the puppet army entering the mountain!"

"During this time, the devil was like going crazy, and he sent a large number of puppet troops into the mountains every day, and fired a shot to embolden himself every 100 meters he advanced. Our patrol force and guard post have arrested more than 100 people in a row, and the devil still has no memory and continues to send people into the mountains. Don't they know that the mountains are the world of my Eighth Route Army? ”

"I guess this two devils evaded our patrol before the gunshots came. The gunfire stopped just now, and the patrol should have followed the gunfire to find him and then captured him! ”

Wang Ping's thinking is not as simple as Zhong Chenggong.

In Wang Ping's eyes, the devil is not only not stupid, but also very smart.

In particular, Major General Matsumoto, the newly appointed brigade commander of the Linfen Japanese Army, was definitely a very difficult opponent.

Losing so many puppet troops in a row and continuing to send people into the mountains, it must be the devil who did it in order to achieve some secret he didn't know.

Unconsciously, Wang Ping's brows were already furrowed, and he stared at Zhong Chenggong and asked, "When did this start, why didn't you report it." ”

Zhong Chenggong was frightened by Wang Ping's seriousness, and hurriedly explained: "It started seven or eight days ago, because all the people caught were puppet soldiers, and nothing useful was asked from their mouths. I'll just treat them as scouts who spy on our intelligence, and let people be sent to the prisoner camp for ideological education! ”

"During this time, more than a dozen puppet soldiers were sent back by the patrol every day, and they were all used to it!"

Seeing that Wang Ping's face was getting more and more serious, Zhong Chenggong continued: "Regiment leader, is there any conspiracy in this, don't you scare me!" ”

"I'm sure it's not as simple as you think!" Wang Ping affirmed.

"Although the devils don't look at these puppet soldiers as inappropriate, they are trained at a cost after all. Just send it to us as a prisoner for nothing, that's too generous! ”

Zhong Chenggong's brows also furrowed: "It's really true to think about it seriously!" ”

"I'm going to lock these captives alone now, maybe there's a devil intelligence agent hiding inside!"
