Chapter VI Joint Defense Forces
As the days of the villagers of Zhaojia Village became more and more prosperous and moisturized, the villagers who originally ran out to be mountain bandits, except for a few who were extremely vicious and really lazy, most of them had already run back by themselves. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info after all, there are still most people who are willing to keep to themselves and live their lives.
Now that he has sufficient young and strong labor, Xiao Mubai decided to recruit more than 100 young men from nearby villages and Zhaojia Village to form an armed force of his own, the village joint defense team.
To say that the joint defense team's salary of three taels of silver per month has indeed attracted the attention of many young people in the vicinity. Of course, although this treatment is good, the corresponding conditions are also much harsher. There is only one condition that young people in their eighteenties and twenties do not want, which has already excluded many people, and the rest, such as not smoking big cigarettes, height restrictions, etc., only recruited more than 100 people in the end.
Gouzi, that is, Zhao Mingjie, and Zhao Mingchuan's second brother Zhao Mingyang, these two active guys, are easy to talk about, and finally with Xiao Mubai's approval, they also participated in the joint defense team. Although Zhao Mingchuan had the heart to oppose it, he couldn't twist his already older second brother after all.
For his own joint defense team, Xiao Mubai has done his best. This is the capital to gain a foothold in this troubled world in the future, and it cannot be sloppy. Therefore, after several trade-offs, Xiao Mubai chose the 87-style military uniform of the People's Liberation Army in later generations for the joint defense team, with two sets of military uniforms for each person, that is, training uniforms and regular uniforms. Military ranks, cockades, etc., are too lazy to change, and stubbornly set August 1 as Army Day. As soon as the brand-new military uniform was taken out, all the team members were delighted, they had never seen such beautiful clothes. Lose your braids and wear a new military uniform, not to mention how energetic you are.
Speaking of this braid, it also took Xiao Mubai a lot of effort, but fortunately, it was carried out according to his wishes in the end.
The establishment of the joint defense team is based on the principle of the three-three system, and one squad includes two chief and deputy squad leaders, exactly 10 people. Three squads and one platoon, 2 chief and deputy platoon commanders, three platoons and one company, 2 chief and deputy company commanders, division chiefs, communicators and other personnel directly under the company, and a cooking squad of 8 people, exactly 142 people, just formed an infantry company.
The armament was Mauser 1898 rifles, one Czech light machine gun per squad. Officers above the platoon commander were issued Browning pistols. There was also a fire platoon of the company, three Makqin heavy machine guns, a mortar squad armed with three 60 mortars. Compared to this era, it can be said that it is armed to the teeth, and coupled with the training capacity of 20 rounds of ammunition per day, it is enough to be proud of the whole country.
As for the selection of officers, after several considerations, Xiao Mubai decided that he would personally serve as the company commander, and the rest of Ding Qiang would serve as the deputy company commander and concurrently serve as the director of the logistics department, and Zhao Mingyang and Zhao Mingjie, two and a half young men, would be cultural instructors and be responsible for teaching the members of the joint defense team to read and write. Chang Er, Zhang Erniu, and Zhao Dayong served as platoon commanders, with the rank of lieutenant, and Wang Xiaosi, Zhao Zhuzi, and Zhao Quanyou served as deputy platoon commanders, with the rank of second lieutenant. These six people are all six people who didn't go back to be mountain bandits after being cleaned up by the cyborgs, Chang Erliu was trained by the cyborgs for half a year, and followed Xiao Mubai to eat and drink well, and now they are all alive and well, and they are no longer the rookies they were at the beginning, and it is no problem to act as a grassroots officer.
Xiao Mubai himself is a soldier, and the training syllabus of the army in the 60s in later generations is ready-made, and the most important and excellent traditions of invincibility on the battlefield must also be known. What officers and men are the same is the basis for an army to have good discipline, and what three major disciplines, the eight points of attention, and so on, can be directly copied.
So, after a few months, Xiao Mubai ate and lived with these people, trained and built barracks together, did not beat and scold, did not punish corporal punishment, and set an example and practiced in daily life and training, he soon won the most sincere support in the hearts of these people.
In the past few months, the company has been training 5 kilometers of 10 kg weight-bearing cross-country, 500 pull-ups, 500 push-ups, 500 push-ups, 500 weight-bearing squats, 20 100-meter sprints, and 10 400-meter sprints, with an excellent completion rate of more than 80% and a shooting level of more than 80 rings. Although Xiao Mubai spent a lot of bullets on training for everyone, the results were real. As for the training of assassination fighting, it has not been left behind, Xiao Mubai taught the assassination fighting skills to the joint defense team, which was summed up by the army in later generations after eight years of fighting with devils at the cost of blood, which is not amazing.
Xiao Mubai believes that in this era, not to mention the great powers, there are not many troops in the country that can make such good basic achievements in the country.
The training of infantry is on the right track, but the training of mortar operators has taken a lot of Xiao Mubai's energy. These joint defense team members used to be illiterate, and most of them only began to read and write in the joint defense team in the past two months, and they didn't know what mathematics was, curved shooting, etc., but fortunately, there were also Zhao Mingyang and Zhao Hanjie, two semi-literate people trained by Xiao Mubai. Although the two are active by nature, they are smart and studious, and they soon learned the essentials of mortar operation under Xiao Mubai's teaching.
Of course, Xiao Mubai appointed Zhao Mingjie as the sergeant squad leader of the mortar squad, and Zhao Mingjie, who has a calm personality and good eloquence, is a full-time cultural teacher. The hard work paid off, after such a toss, the mortar squad finally formed a preliminary combat effectiveness, and the remaining problem was only to use more shells and become familiar with the operation.
"Report to the company commander, the joint defense team should have 142 people, but it is 142 people, and the platoon commander on duty is Chang Er, please instruct."
Xiao Mubai swept over with a majestic gaze, looking at the one hundred and forty-two people standing straight in front of him with their chests and stomachs straight, dressed in camouflage uniforms and pedaling free shoes, as if they saw their own company in the future again. He was very satisfied with the performance of these people during this time, these one hundred and forty-two people, but the future elites that he carefully selected and cultivated, some of them were students he chose to train when he came last year, and some of them stood out after being screened and tested among the three hundred people. It can be said that Xiao Mubai has put a lot of effort into forming his own armed team, and he has not suffered less, and now after several tosses, this army has finally begun to bear fruit.
"Stand upright, take a break. Disbanded" nodded, and after giving the order, Xiao Mubai turned around and walked into his yard.
The innermost and most central part of the courtyard is the laboratory. At this moment, a Maxim water-cooled heavy machine that had been dismantled into parts was scattered on the table, while a brand-new sniper rifle was lying quietly on another table next to it.
Xiao Mubai thought as he looked at the sniper rifle in his hand. Now that the basic training of those 142 people has basically ended, he himself basically thinks that these people are already capable of serving as non-commissioned officer squad leaders at the grassroots level, and there are still a few good seedlings among them, and they can even be trained into higher-level grassroots officers. However, this still needs time and practice to cultivate, and it also needs to be tested by actual combat before making a decision.
In addition, Xiao Mubai feels that the special forces can also be formed, but the scale should not be too large, first set up a squad of 10 people, after all, he has no experience in this area, and now that the small hydropower station has been built, with sufficient electric energy, it should not be a problem to make it a squad of modern arms.
As for the formation of the intelligence department, this is an urgent matter, although there is no clue yet, but this can be completely handed over to Wen Xu, the cyborg. This person has an ordinary appearance, with a public face, and he is usually unrecognizable when he is thrown in the crowd, so it should be quite good to do this. The initial intelligence network does not seek to cover the whole province, but at least it should cover the entire Quang Nam region, so that it can know in advance if there is a disturbance and make a timely response. After all, it's better to plan ahead than to be scared.
Thinking like this, Xiao Mubai quickly flipped out his notebook and recorded his thoughts by brush.
