Chapter 114 Establishment of the County Brigade
Shen Wei's ability Sun Weiguo believed, and he felt that it was most appropriate for Shen Wei to serve as the political commissar of the cavalry battalion at the same time.
The cavalry battalion has just defected, their hearts are relatively fragile, Fan Shuming is sharp, he went to the cavalry battalion to serve as a political commissar, it is inevitable that there will be a conflict with the cavalry, in that case, the fragile soul of the cavalry battalion can not withstand the blow, and no one dares to guarantee what they will do when the time comes.
Hearing Sun Weiguo's words, Zhong Jian glanced at Shen Wei, he pondered slightly, and then nodded.
Zhong Jian also took into account the current situation of the cavalry battalion, and he felt that Shen Wei was the most suitable person to serve as the political commissar of the cavalry battalion.
"Alright, I'll be the commissar of the cavalry battalion." Shen Wei happily agreed.
"The infantry battalion still has three infantry companies and one machine gun company, and the cavalry battalion has three cavalry companies and one machine gun company. Sun Weiguo then said his idea.
At present, the county brigade has a lot of weapons and ammunition, but if the unit is expanded, then the county brigade will have great pressure to survive.
An infantry battalion, a cavalry battalion, and an artillery battalion are completely in line with the current situation.
Sun Weiguo's suggestion, he looked at Zhong Jian and Shen Wei, this matter must be approved by them.
Zhong Jian and Shen Wei glanced at each other, and then the two of them nodded and agreed.
They have a lot of trust in Sun Weiguo, especially Sun Weiguo has led the troops to win battles several times, and they unconditionally support Sun Weiguo for any suggestion, Shen Wei began to understand Sun Weiguo, and she completely understood Zhong Jian's opinion on everything that agreed with Sun Weiguo.
Sun Weiguo has the ability, anything he says is beneficial, good for the development of the troops, what reason do they have to disagree?
After the following discussions, Sun Weiguo personally formulated the establishment of the cavalry battalion and the artillery battalion, while the infantry battalion did not make any changes.
The cavalry battalion has three cavalry companies and one machine gun company, and each cavalry company has three cavalry platoons with 33 men in each platoon, equipped with 30 infantry rifles and 3 submachine guns.
The machine gun company has six Type 92 heavy machine guns and six 92 infantry guns, and these heavy weapons are completely towed and loaded by trucks.
The cavalry battalion was to maintain mobility, so Sun Weiguo equipped part of the captured trucks with the cavalry battalion.
THE ARTILLERY BATTALION HAS TWO MOUNTAIN ARTILLERY COMPANIES, ONE MORTAR COMPANY, THE FIRST ARTILLERY COMPANY HAS SIX 41 MOUNTAIN GUNS, THE SECOND ARTILLERY COMPANY HAS SIX 94 MOUNTAIN GUNS, AND THE MORTAR COMPANY HAS 12 150MM MORTARS AND FOUR 82MM MATARS.
The artillery battalion has a large shelf, it is a reinforced artillery battalion, but the artillery is very lacking, and the stone to be promoted to the battalion commander needs to train qualified artillerymen.
The decision on the establishment of the county brigade had been made, and Zhong Jian and Shen Wei began to get busy, and they reorganized the troops.
But the troops are now very short of soldiers, and they need to solve this problem as a matter of urgency.
But overall, this time the county brigade won a battle, and everyone was still very happy.
When Zhong Jian and Shen Wei left the headquarters, Sun Weiguo hesitated, he asked Liu Qian to prepare some meals, and asked the communication soldiers to invite all the officers of the cavalry battalion to the headquarters.
Sun Weiguo's side was actively replenishing the troops, and at the headquarters of the 40th Brigade of the Japanese Army in Shouyang County, Yamashita Fengwen's mood was not very good at this time.
The 79th Wing was ambushed by the 129th Division on the way to Pingding County, and the troops lost several hundred people, and the 79th Wing Commander Mori Muyi Lang Dazuo immediately ordered the troops to move closer to Xiyang County, and at present, the 79th Wing has been stationed in Xiyang County, but the troops of the 129th Division are still pestering the 79th Wing.
Yamashita Fengwen quickly sent a telegram to the 1st Artillery Brigade, and at the same time he sent a telegram to the Japanese army in Pingding County, and what surprised Yamashita Fengwen was that the 1st Artillery Brigade and the 2nd Brigade of Pingding County could no longer get in touch.
At this time, Yamashita realized that the 80th Wing was likely to be wiped out.
Yamashita was very nervous, now he was not thinking about rescuing the 80th Wing, he needed to think about whether the 79th Wing was safe.
He immediately sent a telegram to the regimental headquarters of the 20th Division, and this time Yamashita Fengwen did not care about his own face, and he directly explained the situation of asking for help in the telegram.
The headquarters of the 20th Division of the Japanese Army, the commander of the 20th Division at this time, Lieutenant General Kawagishi Bunzaburo was not in a very good mood, and his division's retaliatory siege of the 129th Division had obviously failed, and now Kawagishi Bunzaburo was not thinking about encircling and annihilating the troops of the 129th Division, he was thinking about how to withdraw the troops safely.
After receiving Yamashita Fumi's first telegram requesting tactical guidance, Kawagishi Fumizaburo immediately transferred an infantry wing of the 39th Brigade, and at the same time he sent out the division's cavalry wing, which he used to form a reinforcement force.
The two wings are now ready, and they are about to go to Binh Dinh County.
But at this time, the chief of staff of the 20th Division, Kimura Kuzo Nakasa, immediately came to Kawagishi Bunzaburo.
"Your Excellency the division commander, the message for help sent by the head of the Yamashita Fengwen Brigade, according to the estimation of the head of the Yamashita Fengwen Brigade, the 40th Wing outside the 80th Brigade has been completely wiped out, and Pingding County is very likely to have been recovered by the troops of the Eighth Route Army." Hisazo Kimura handed the message to Fumizaburo Kawagishi, and he said in a solemn tone.
When Kawagishi Bunzaburo heard the news, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, an infantry wing, a force of more than 3,000 people, was completely annihilated, which made Kawagishi Bunzaburo a little unbelievable.
"What about the Wing Flag, what about the 80 Wing Flag?" Kawagishi Bunzaburo asked anxiously.
Each infantry wing of the Japanese army has a wing flag personally awarded by the Japanese emperor, and this wing flag can be burned, but it must not fall into the hands of the enemy, otherwise the wing will be canceled.
"The current situation is unknown, and the captain of Ken Suzuki's second wing should burn the wing flag." Hisazo Kisamura said with a complicated face.
Kawagishi Fumizaburo looked at the map hanging on the wall with a somewhat glazed gaze, his brow furrowed.
"Your Excellency Division Commander, at present, the 79th Wing is besieged in Xiyang County by the troops of the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army, if they are not rescued in time, I am afraid they will also ...... In addition, according to the information we have received, most of the 80 Wing was wiped out by the local armed forces led by Sun Weiguo, and this Sun Weiguo was active in Pingding County, and once he led the team to Xiyang County, I am afraid that the consequences would be unimaginable. ”
Kimura Hizo said very worriedly, he regarded Sun Weiguo as the king of Hades who asked for his life.
"Sun Weiguo, what is the origin of this Sun Weiguo, and why did he bring us so many tragic casualties." Kawagishi Bunzaburo looked at Kimura Kuzo in front of him, and he asked with an annoyed expression.
