Chapter 1207: Mule and Horse Transformation of the Troops (Second Update!) )
"This Wang Ping is not only a powerful commander in battle, he often strikes devils by surprise and creates miracles, he is also very generous in his shots, and he has a unique vision!" The boss, who had read the telegram, added, was not stingy with the compliments he could think of.
"Thirty mountain guns, rifles and light and heavy machine guns to form a reinforced brigade, plus more than two million rounds of various bullets, send them out when you say you want to send them out!"
"Commander Chen made a lot of money this time, and took his direct brigade to the new regiment for a trip, not only earning back so many weapons and ammunition, but also getting more than 2,000 puppet army prisoners!"
"No accident, the war in the direction of Linfen City is worry-free, we can sleep peacefully!"
Although the deputy chief of staff was also very excited, he quickly calmed down, and then stared at the deputy commander-in-chief and asked: "Boss, you mean, with this victory, Wang Ping and his new regiment will definitely be able to complete the task assigned to him by the headquarters!" ”
"It's not just a new mess!" The boss affirmed.
"No accident, it won't be long before Commander Chen will create a surprise for us!"
"Commander Chen brought back so many weapons and ammunition this time, especially those dozens of mountain artillery and infantry artillery, use them well, just fight the devils for a counterattack, and kill them with a full infantry wing!"
The headquarters of the new first regiment, the regiment commander Wang Ping, the political commissar Huang Yuanqiang, and the chief of staff Zhong Chenggong, the three of them sat around a table, discussing something, and their faces were very complicated.
Especially political commissar Huang Yuanqiang, I can't tell whether he is happy or angry.
The troops fought a great victory in Dongping Village, and it was a happy thing that three joys were coming.
However, the regiment commander Wang Ping was too self-conscious, and sent out the equipment of a reinforced brigade with one mouth.
There are still more than 2,700 puppet army prisoners, and if the mobilization is smooth, at least 2,000 people can be mobilized to join the Eighth Route Army.
You know, these two thousand people are no ordinary recruits.
They are all veterans who have been trained by devils and have been on the battlefield.
The reason why the devils have no combat effectiveness and will be defeated with one blow is because they don't really want to give their lives to the little devils.
But joining the Eighth Route Army is different!
Huang Yuanqiang is confident that with the political mobilization ability of the Eighth Route Army, he will definitely be able to make them sincerely join the Eighth Route Army and follow the Eighth Route Army to fight devils. When the time comes, their combat effectiveness will definitely rise.
You must know that many of the backbones of the new regiment are the puppet soldiers who were captured at the beginning.
So many future backbone veterans of the new regiment will be sent out when they say they will send them out, and they don't know whether to say that he is generous or that he has a big heart.
After all, the new regiment is also short of soldiers now, especially after the current battle, when the casualties of the participating troops are not small......
Seeing that the political commissar was holding back his anger and did not speak, Wang Ping explained with a smile.
"Don't be angry, the reason why the political commissar sent them more weapons, ammunition and recruits to the military region is not because I am generous, nor is it because my king is peaceful!"
"You know better than me about the situation of the military region, political commissar, these things are left in our new regiment, and they do not improve the combat effectiveness of the new regiment much. However, in the hands of Commander Chen of the Military Region, whether it is weapons, ammunition or recruits, they can save their lives! ”
"Also, although those prisoners were sent to the military region, I promise you, political commissar, that I will definitely send you more prisoners in a month at most!"
"When the time comes, what you will worry about is not that you don't have prisoners in your hands, but that there are too many prisoners in your hands and there is no place to place them!"
Huang Yuanqiang's frowning brows relaxed suddenly, stared at Wang Ping and asked, "Commander, don't coax me!" ”
"I, Wang Ping, have always been talkative!" Wang Ping replied confidently.
Then the conversation changed and continued: "Also, commissar, we have not gained nothing in this battle! ”
"Nearly 1.6 million catties of food and ammunition were supplied to us. Now there is a famine everywhere, as long as you have food in your hands, otherwise you will not be able to recruit soldiers. ”
"There are also seven or eight thousand mules and horses, excluding the ones taken away by the commander, we still have nearly five thousand left!"
"I have an idea to use these mules and horses to bring our new regiment up to the standard of mule and horsemanship."
"All infantry battalions, main battalions, no matter what the circumstances, a rapid march can guarantee a speed of five kilometers per hour, and a continuous march of thirty kilometers!"
"If this standard can be reached, the combat effectiveness of our new regiment in long-distance raids will certainly be greatly enhanced, and the mobility of the troops will also be increased a lot.
Chief of Staff Zhong Chenggong replied with a look of approval: "This problem really needs to be improved!" ”
"I remember the last time the Japanese army launched a large-scale sweep of our base area, several brigades suddenly appeared in our rear, although the troops drawn from the front arrived in time. However, because of the rapid march of the troops, they had to abandon almost all their heavy weapons and go to the battlefield with only light weapons and a small amount of ammunition. ”
"If it's a short-term battle of a few hours, the impact is not big!"
"However, once the battle lasts for a day or more, the little ammunition that the reinforcements carry to maintain their strength will not be enough."
"As for those heavy weapons, if they are thrown away rashly, they will definitely have a very huge impact on the combat effectiveness of the troops!"
"I'll do a set-up, if in the last anti-sweeping battle, the reinforcements brought heavy weapons and ample ammunition while ensuring the speed of the march. I can guarantee that our casualties and losses will be reduced by at least two percent, if not more! ”
"So, I definitely support the mule and horse of the troops!"
The last time the counter-sweep, the commissar stayed in the rear to direct the troops, and no one knew better than him the importance of mobility, heavy weapons, and sufficient ammunition for a unit.
frowned and asked, "Commander, how do you plan to change it!" ”
Wang Ping had already thought about it, and blurted out directly: "The troops and battalions below us have already set up a baggage platoon, and this will not change." What needs to be changed now is the infantry company, each infantry company is set up a baggage squad, with nine mules and horses, and there is no problem at all in carrying a weight of 3,000 catties if you march long and quickly. ”
"The weight of 3,000 catties can include the supply of food and ammunition for the whole company for three days of operation."
"In this way, ordinary infantry only need to carry weapons, clothing, and a day's combat provisions, and the weight will be more than 20 catties, which will not affect the troops for long-distance and rapid marching!"
"The baggage platoon under the infantry battalion is equipped with fifty mules and horses, carrying the battalion's combat supplies for three days!"
"The heavy machine gun company is equipped with ten mules and horses, and all the heavy machine guns and supporting ammunition are carried by mules and horses to ensure the mobility of the troops!"
"The artillery company is equipped with 15 mules and horses, infantry guns, mortars, and matching shells, all mules and horses!"
"The mountain artillery company is equipped with thirty mules and horses, the mountain artillery is dismantled and divided into three, and there are cannonballs, all mules and horses!
"The new main battalion, an independent battalion, each battalion is equipped with 105 mules and horses...... The main battalion is equipped with 145 mules and horses......"
Chief of Staff Zhong Chenggong replied with a twinkle in his eyes: "Regiment commander, in this case, the mobility of the troops will definitely be greatly increased. Long-distance running operations, without any reinforcements, can also fight for seven days in a row! ”
"No, in fact, seven days is definitely more than seven, ten days is possible!"
"There will be casualties in the course of the battle, and the weapons, ammunition and supplies equipped by the casualties will be more available for other combatants!"
"Commander, I completely agree with your proposal just now!"
