More than 10 days have passed since the attack on Xinghe County, and Han Yunhua led his troops to withdraw from the county seat and take root on Daqing Mountain, which is more than 40 miles away from the county seat of Xinghe County, but the impact of the Xinghe County Battle is far from subsided.

Due to the suddenness of Han Yunhua and the others that day, the attack was simple, so most of the confidential documents had not yet had time to be destroyed, and together with the weapons and equipment, food, gold and silver in the warehouse, all became the trophies of a new group.

In the battle, the new regiment took down a county seat, pulled out a devil's stronghold, and eliminated 126 people of the Yue army (including 13 people from the Taiji Temple stronghold, Han Yunhua and others ambushed and killed 85 people from the Yue army halfway, and eliminated 29 people from the Yue army when attacking the county seat). At the same time, 36 Han annihilation troops were eliminated, 2 Han annihilation households were suppressed, and 343 Type 38 rifles, 6,333 medium formal rifles, 1,298 Hanyang-made rifles, 37 French-made M1922 light machine guns, 38 crooked handle machine guns, 96 medium-formal machine guns, 68 Finnish-made M26 light machine guns, 52 Soviet-made DP28 light machine guns, 43 Belgian-made FNBARM1930 light machine guns, 876 Czech machine guns, There were 117 Maxim heavy machine guns and a number of miscellaneous guns. More than 6 million rounds of ammunition, 36 grenadiers, 16 mortars, more than 1,200 shells, more than 200,000 grenades, 13,241 melon grenades, a radio station, 37 horses, more than 1.2 million catties of grain, a number of military cement, military and civilian medicines and medical equipment, 129 gold bars, 1234569 silver dollars, antique jade, gold and silver jewelry, various daily necessities, meat and oil, chariot and horse utensils, and a number of .........

Because there are too many things to be transported, Han Yunhua and others vigorously mobilized the masses to help transport, because the new regiment strictly implements the policies formulated by Han Yunhua not to disturb the people, suppress the Han annihilation, and the people's public trial, etc., which has been initially recognized by the people, so the vast majority of young and strong laborers are willing to help transport materials, of course, the new regiment has also given these people who are willing to help the new regiment some tangible benefits, as long as each family is willing to help the new regiment transport materials to distribute 100 catties of grain, Each family that is unwilling to help the new group transport materials can only distribute 50 catties of grain.

Although there were tens of thousands of young and strong laborers to help transport them, there were too many things, so more than 10,000 people and more than 300 carriages were moved for two days and two nights to be completed, and the amount of work was really huge.

Daqingshan near Daqingshan in Xinghe County and Hohhot is not a mountain, the altitude is not high, the highest peak is only 100 meters away from the flat land, although the peak is not high, but the road up the mountain is extremely steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack. The land below the mountain is flat, the village and the population are large, and it is a good place to base it.

What made Han Yunhua happiest was that there was only one road from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain to reach the peak, and there were three very steep cliff paths, as long as the mountain pass and the three cliff roads in and out of the mountain were guarded, even if the army had 100,000 horses, they would not want to attack in a short time.

After reading the list of seized items, Han Yunhua's heart was full of doubts, so many weapons and equipment were seized in this small county town, and most of them were standard equipment of the Kuomintang army, and some of them were weapons used by local warlord troops.

However, Han Yunhua soon found the answer from the captured confidential documents of the army, it turned out that since the "77 Incident", the Fifth Division of the Chinese Army has been invincible all the way, breaking [***], fighting warlords, occupying Nankou and Zhangjiakou at the end of August, and capturing Datong, Guangling, and Weixian in mid-September, and the spearhead reached Taiyuan. At this time, the Kuomintang army, especially most of the army in the Second War Zone headed by the warlord Yan Xishan, lacked confidence in the implementation of the policy of passive resistance and the battle. Along the way, they were killed, wounded, and captured tens of thousands of people by the Fifth Division.

The vast majority of the weapons are not looked down upon by the army, and the bullet caliber of most of the weapons is not compatible with the standard weapons of the army, so except for a small number of high-end heavy weapons imported by the army, the rest have been transported to the rear by the army, ready to equip the Han annihilation troops in Chahar, Suiyuan and other places. Xinghe County, as one of the closest counties to Datong, has also hoarded a large amount of [***] equipment. At the same time, it also solved the problem of the lack of weapons and ammunition of the new regiment, and made great contributions and indelible contributions to the future development of the new regiment.

At the same time, under the initiative of Han Yunhua, more than 1,400 of the more than 10,000 young and strong laborers who were willing to join the Eighth Route Army were finally willing to join the Eighth Route Army, and the new regiment was replenished for the first time since crossing the Yellow River at the end of September.

Coupled with the original hundreds of veterans, Han Yunhua now has a total of nearly 1,900 people in his hands and the weapons and ammunition are also very sufficient, this unit has grown, Han Yunhua and other military cadres of the new regiment also seem to be confident, and the decadent morale that has just arrived in Xinghe County has been swept away.

Han Yunhua's side was complacent, but the headquarters of the Chahar Corps, the headquarters of the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army Headquarters, and the headquarters of the 386th Brigade were all in a mess. Two days after the withdrawal of the new regiment, the headquarters of the Chahar Corps of the Yue Army, which realized that something was wrong, sent reinforcements from a reinforced squadron to Xinghe County, but it was a pity that at that time, Han Yunhua had already gone to Daqingshan, dozens of miles away, and was busy establishing a base there.

The annihilation of the Xinghe County garrison caused an uproar in the headquarters of the Chahar Corps, and the vast majority of the generals of the army demanded that the commander of the Chahar Corps, Hideki Tojo, send troops to exterminate the daring and reckless Chinese army, and to carry out a frenzied retaliatory attack on all the [***] squadrons in the territory.

Half a month ago, the Fifth Division of the Eighth Route Army issued an open battle report announcing the annihilation of a reorganized regiment of the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army, and published the number of the regiment and the photos of the fallen generals in the newspapers, and at this time, the headquarters of the 386th Brigade and the brigade headquarters could not contact anyone in the new regiment, so the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army and the headquarters of the 129th Division, All the military and political commanders of the 386 Brigade Headquarters have accepted the fact that the new regiment has been completely annihilated, and have reported to Yan'an to revoke the name of the new regiment.

Because of the annihilation of the new first regiment, Liu Bocheng, commander of the 129th Division, and Chen Geng, commander of the 386th Brigade, were criticized by name by the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army and Yan'an, which also made the outside world seriously doubt the combat effectiveness of the Eighth Route Army, and was criticized by domestic public opinion, which had a very bad impact on the Eighth Route Army.

No matter how chaotic the outside world is, it can't affect the new group, and now Han Yunhua, who is hiding in the depths of Daqing Mountain, is carrying out his own training plan for the expansion and reorganization of the army. Both the Chahar Corps and the Eighth Route Army have completely lost the news of the new regiment.

First of all, Han Yunhua planned to carry out a new round of reorganization of the whole regiment, and he planned to reorganize all the people into three reinforced battalions of 470 people, plus one guard company, one regimental heavy machine gun company, one cavalry company, one reconnaissance company, one communications platoon, and one mortar platoon. Each battalion has three reinforced combat companies, each company is equipped with three rifle platoons and a machine gun platoon, and each rifle platoon is equipped with a machine gun squad plus a grenadier canister, which means that the combat unit of a company is equipped with 12 light machine guns, 2 heavy machine guns, 121 rifles and 4 grenadiers.

In fact, Han Yunhua has been fond of the 38 big cover that shined in the war for a long time, the gun is an improved version of the Meiji 30-year rifle, the Meiji 38-year rifle and the Meiji 30-year rifle The difference in appearance is that the Meiji 30-year rifle does not have a dust cover, so most of the [***] people call this gun the 38 big cover. Han Yunhua is very enthusiastic about the eight-way soldiers in "Bright Sword". The advantages of the 38 cover are that the 6.5mm bullet used has large penetration, long range, no smoke and no flame when fired, it is relatively hidden, and the recoil force is not obvious, which is convenient for the shooter to play the level, and the actual combat shooting accuracy is extremely high. However, the 6.5mm bullet bullet fired by this gun has a large ratio of length to diameter, and it will not flip after hitting the human body to cause collateral damage. It was a pity for Han Yunhua that although countless guns were seized this time, only more than 200 were seized in the 38 big cover, which was really a pity.

But the next question made Han Yunhua almost nod his head to death, the number of weapons and ammunition captured in this battle far exceeded Han Yunhua's expectations, but the number of models of weapons captured also far exceeded Han Yunhua's expectations, a single rifle has Zhongzheng, 38 type, Liao 13 year type rifle, Hanyang made, Gongzao 98 type rifle, Mosin-Nagan M1891/30 rifle 7 models, machine guns this kind of domestic production level of automatic firepower is even more varied, Germany, Yue, Soviet, Italy, Britain, the United States, France, the Czech Republic, Belgium and other production areas are readily available, and what kind of firearms to equip the troops with has become a major problem for Han Yunhua.

In addition to the gap in national strength, another very important reason is that the caliber of weapons and equipment varies in size, and the logistical pressure is great, which seriously affects the combat effectiveness of the army. During World War II, there were a wide variety of weapons, which was caused by the fact that at the beginning of the founding of the Republic of China, there were many political departments, warlords divided and melee. Warlords around the country have their own sources of weapons procurement, self-made weapons are not a standard standard, industrial processing capacity is also different, is the same model of firearms, the quality of the production is also uneven, coupled with the warlords around the country according to their own situation to do the transformation of the firearms produced, resulting in even the same model of firearms, the production of spare parts and ammunition can not be used in the situation, if subdivided, only the rifle [***] has hundreds of varieties, A model of rifle may have more than 10 variants that can not be used, such a situation leads to the fact that the national political axe itself can not accurately count, how many kinds of firearms and artillery were equipped in various parts of China at that time, and finally in 1930 [***] began the armament rectification, advocating the replacement of various miscellaneous weapons with unified standard weapons, but limited to the national strength in fact can not do the unification of armaments at all, after the reorganization of armaments, [***] is still equipped with messy, rifles alone have 4 different calibers, and even if the same caliber of rifles, Ammunition may not be universal, which has become a nightmare in terms of logistical support, and the overall coordinated combat effectiveness of the army is extremely low.

Just like what Li Zongren said after the war in "Li Zongren's Memoirs" in the review of the advantages and disadvantages of friend and foe (4): At the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War, there were no less than millions of people in the whole [***] team, but they were all different and chaotic. As far as the historical system is concerned, there are the so-called Central Army, the Northeast Army, the Northwest Army, the Shanxi Army, the Guangdong Army, the Gui Army, the Sichuan Army, the Dian Army, and other provincial and local armies. As far as training is concerned, the training methods of the various armies are extremely inconsistent. As far as equipment is concerned, the Chinese [***] team can be said to be a display center for all kinds of weapons in the world, including Germany, Yue, the Soviet Union, Italy, Britain, the United States, France, and the Czech Republic, and the domestic arsenals such as Hanyang, Jinling, Gongxian, Shenyang, and Taiyuan also produce different products, so the equipment of the army varies from army to army. As far as the simplest question of logistics is concerned: "What should be done with such a variety of weapons and their logistical supply?" At that time, the state was that the Gui system was mainly equipped with British equipment, the Yunnan army was French-style equipment, the Central Army had a small number of German-style equipment, the Northeast Army was Chinese-style equipment, the Northwest Army was mainly equipped with large blades, and the Sichuan Army did not have a unified equipment of its own. Even the most touted in the middle of the formal also has two calibers of 7.92 and 7.7, (the British rifle used by the Liangguang army is 7.7 caliber), the rifle caliber of the Northeast army is 6.5, and the Czech ZB light machine gun is also coexisting with two calibers (7.92 and 7.7, and the British is 7.7).

It took Han Yunhua a lot of thought to think about how to equip the troops, and if these weapons were only equipped with the best ones regardless of the caliber, then the combat effectiveness of the troops would not be greatly improved. After many comparisons, Han Yunhua made the troops equip the rifles with the standard rifles used by the active troops of the Yue Army, the 38-type big cover and the standard rifles of the active troops, and Han Yunhua only equipped the troops with Czech light machine guns in terms of light machine guns. Heavy machine guns belong to a single class of weapons, a total of 139 of 7 models were captured in this battle, Han Yunhua equipped the largest number of Makqin heavy machine guns to the troops, and the remaining large number of miscellaneous weapons were thrown into the warehouse by Han Yunhua, ready to have the opportunity to send to the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, so that the leaders of the headquarters can be uniformly dispatched.

The specific equipment of the troops is as follows: Li Dayong's battalion is a rifle battalion, which is equipped with a total of 297 Type 38 rifles, 65 Czech light machine guns, and 12 Makqin heavy machine guns. Wang Jian's 2nd Battalion and Chen Shangming's 3rd Battalion were national rifle battalions, each battalion equipped with 297 Chinese rifles, 65 Czech light machine guns, and 12 Makqin heavy machine guns. The guard company and the reconnaissance company were each equipped with 112 medium rifles, 24 Czech light machine guns, and 2 Maxim heavy machine guns. The regiment's heavy machine gun company was equipped with a total of 24 Makqin heavy machine guns, the cavalry company was only equipped with 38 carbines, 38 sabers, and 3 Czech-style light machine guns due to limited personnel and horses, the communications platoon was all medium and formal rifles, and the mortar platoon was the only artillery unit in the regiment, equipped with a total of 4 60mm mortars. In order to strengthen the firepower of each battalion, Han Yunhua added 12 heavy machine guns to each battalion, and compared with the heavy machine guns of a 174-man machine gun squadron (14 people in the company and 3 machine gun platoons, 1 ammunition platoon, and 4 heavy machine guns in each platoon) with a total of 12 (some companies only have 8 in some companies), the firepower configuration of the new regiment is undoubtedly luxurious.

Among the firearms, Han Yunhua values the light machine gun the most, because this kind of assault weapon with strong firepower, light weight, easy to carry, and can be used by a single soldier can be used as equipment to suppress the surname, and can also be used as a high-automatic weapon such as a submachine gun, which is simply an essential weapon for fighting a war and marching. Among the light machine guns captured in this battle, the best surname was the French-made M1922 light machine gun, but Han Yunhua finally chose the Czech-made ZB26 light machine gun, which is the most famous Czech type in the [***] team.

On the one hand, it was because of the largest number of ZB26 light machines among the trophies captured this time, and on the other hand, because the ammunition of the French-made M1922 light machine gun was difficult to handle. The M1922 light machine gun made in France is equipped with a lot of warlords in various places in addition to the Central Army, and there are many warlords around the country, after 1934, the [***] weapon began to take the standardized route, and the regular army rifle was reduced from 13 calibers to 4 calibers, and the number of French caliber rifles was not small, and it was not cut, but this M1922 light machine gun actually had 4 different models of ammunition in service at the same time, and there was no one type that was the absolute majority, all of which were about the same number, The most terrible thing is that the barrel of this machine gun is difficult to make itself, and the size of the internal parts of the M1922 light machine gun that fires different bullets is not the same and cannot be interchanged, so it cannot be modified into a machine gun that fires the same kind of bullet, not only that, the bullets of this weapon are all made of smokeless fire wool as propellant, and this M1922 light machine gun is only suitable for firing smokeless fire cotton as a propellant bullet, and at that time, China's smokeless fire cotton production was small and the quality was unstable, so the bullets of this machine gun basically relied on imports.

And the bullet is also difficult to produce itself, some troops in addition to a few M1922 light machine guns have not used these bullets of firearms, so this gun before the war made people feel troublesome to use, should be cut, after the outbreak of the war, this gun on the battlefield, naturally became the most troublesome gun in the supply of ammunition, in order to equip the bullet problem of this gun troops, the logistics supply department was busy with chickens and dogs, barely to the middle of the war, [***] can no longer bear it, the loss of these machine guns is replaced, do not raise this uncle.

The Czech style is different, Li Yunlong in the bright sword has always been full of praise for the Czech light machine gun. Due to the low price, the Kuomintang imported a large number of Czech light machine guns, coupled with the simple structure of the imitation requirements are not high, there are imitation production in various parts of the country, only during the civil war period there are more than 40,000 domestic production, plus the number of imports before the war and the number of imitations before the war, the total amount of equipment reached 100,000 units, it was definitely a well-deserved main machine gun in China at that time, due to the huge number of both the regular army and the local army and the township militia regiment have equipment, There is the howl of ZB26 light machine guns on all the battlefields in the north and south of the Yellow River, and the ZB26 light machine gun has naturally become the symbol weapon of the [***] team.

The most important thing is that Han Yunhua fell in love with the excellent surname of the Czech light machine gun, the Czech light machine gun has a barrel length of 602mm, a total length of 1165mm, and a weight of 9kg, using a 20-round straight magazine to feed ammunition, firing 57mm heavy pointed bullets, and can also fire 57mm light pointed bullets if necessary. The advantages are that the firearm is compact, durable, and rarely malfunctioning, easy to carry in marching operations, and fast in combat response, which is very suitable for battlefield use.

It's not that the Czech light machine gun has no shortcomings, Han Yunhua knows that its excellent surname can at the same time also know the shortcomings of the Czech style, it has the defects of being difficult to control and low accuracy when firing long bursts, in addition, the heat dissipation of the Czech light machine gun can be defective, and the barrel will overheat if it can't hit a few cartridges, and the bullets fired after the barrel is overheated will lose its stability, flying around without accuracy, and it will land if it can't fly far, and there is almost no threat to the enemy. Although the barrel of the Czech light machine gun can be quickly replaced, it is very irritating to change the barrel frequently on the battlefield, and there are not so many spare barrels issued to the machine gunner for frequent replacement in the battlefield, so well-trained machine gunners pay attention to this point when fighting Czech light machine guns, aim calmly, and only carry out single burst or short burst fire on the enemy, so that the barrel will not overheat, and the shooting is accurate, and the killing effect is good and the bullet is saved, If the Chinese army sees the enemy machine gunners on the opposite side and uses Czech light machine guns to fire in long bursts of strafing at the slightest hint of trouble, it can be judged that the Chinese troops in front of them are full of untrained and inexperienced recruits, and they can easily win, but on the contrary, they must be cautious in dealing with them.

On the whole, the Czech light machine gun is by no means the best light machine gun with the surname Neng, and there is nothing outstanding with the surname Neng, but because of the low price and easy to obtain, China chose it as the main light machine gun due to lack of funds and backward industrial capacity, in a word, not because the Czech light machine gun surname can be the best, but because China had no choice at that time.

At the same time, Han Yunhua and the other people's blind happiness is different, he saw that although the weapons and equipment of the troops are almost armed to the teeth, the combat effectiveness has not improved as much as imagined, because most of the soldiers are recruits, they are simply a group of farmers with weapons, and it is simply a crime to let such a group of people go to the battlefield, so he handed over the construction of houses, barracks, warehouses and other buildings in the base area to Ye Baoguo, the chief of staff who has not yet recovered from his injuries, while he himself concentrates on the training of the troops.

For this reason, Han Yunhua also used the experience of later generations to compile a "Training Program for Ordinary Soldiers of the New First Regiment" in combination with the existing conditions, and also secretly drafted a "Special Forces Training Program", but this "Special Forces Training Program" is known only to Han Yunhua himself, because this program is too shocking compared to the current mainstream military theory, and he can put it into practice, but he cannot put this program into writing and writing, otherwise the future rectification movement will definitely have his share. Han Yunhua admits that he is not a good athlete.

The most regrettable thing for Han Yunhua is that although he has seized a radio station of the army, because he has not found the code book of the army, and he himself does not have the contact code of the various departments of the Eighth Route Army, he has not received all the instructions from the headquarters until now, and the radio can only be used as a good-looking decoration. The cavalry company is also a little flaw in Han Yunhua's heart, due to the limited number of captured war horses, although the cavalry company is a company-level establishment, the cavalry company now only has 43 horses, which can barely be regarded as a cavalry platoon.

Looking at the crooked military training outline written with a brush in his hand, Han Yunhua couldn't help but show a smile, and then whispered to Huzi who was standing guard outside the door: "Huzi, you immediately notify the chief of staff and the commanders of each battalion, and say that you will go to the regiment headquarters at eight o'clock in the morning to hold a meeting at the company commander level and above, and ask them to notify the company commanders of each company that they are not allowed to be late, go!" ”

"Yes," Huzi saluted and ran out.

At eight o'clock in the morning, Han Yunhua walked into the conference room on time, saw that more than a dozen newly appointed military commanders had arrived, and saw Han Yunhua sitting in, all the people stood up, he smiled and said: "All sit, all sit, are all the people here?" If you get all the time, you can start, right? ”

Li Dayong, commander of the first battalion, said loudly: "The first battalion has a battalion commander, two deputy battalion commanders, a chief of staff, two deputy chiefs of staff, three company commanders, six deputy company commanders, three instructors, and six deputy instructors, a total of 24 people, all of whom are here. ”

Wang Jian, the commander of the second battalion, said after Li Dayong sat down: "The second battalion commander, one battalion commander, two deputy battalion commanders, one chief of staff, two deputy chiefs of staff, three company commanders, six deputy company commanders, three instructors, and six deputy instructors, a total of 24 people, have all arrived, please instruct." ”

Han Yunhua said with satisfaction: "Sit"

Following Wang Jian, the commander of the second battalion, Chen Shangming, the commander of the third battalion, also got up and said: "Report to the regiment commander, all the military commanders above the level of the third battalion have arrived, please instruct?" ”

"Sit"

Next came Tu Qiangguo, commander of the guard company, Huang Xueping, commander of the reconnaissance company, Xi Liege, commander of the cavalry company, and Liu Wenhua, commander of the heavy machine gun company, who stood up one after another to make reports. (Today is a big chapter, 7,000 words.) If Autean updates a large chapter of more than 5,000 words in the future, then it means that Autean will only update one chapter that day, because Autean's goal is to update no less than 5,000 words per day.
