Chapter 55: Retaliation of the Japanese Army
Ten light and heavy machine guns, three medium mortars, not to mention the main force of the army division, even the regular army units of the Eighth Route Army, may not have such a firepower ration.
This is just a machine gun squadron, and Shen Wei still hasn't seen the weapons of the other two squadrons, but she feels that the firepower of the other two squadrons will definitely not be bad.
"Political commissar, don't look at our county brigade only has more than 300 people, but the weapons and equipment are not bad at all, especially the machine gun squadron, which is the main trump card of our county brigade."
Sun Weiguo looked at Shen Wei's slightly surprised expression, he said with a smile, and it was inevitable that a smug expression appeared on his face.
The machine gun squadron is all formed by veterans, and these veterans are Yang Xinghua's treasures.
Sun Weiguo is the instructor in charge of training, but he trains the machine gun squadron to the death, and it can be said without exaggeration that every soldier in the machine gun squadron can serve as a squad leader in the future.
The three platoon commanders Liang Tieniu, Zhao Wei, and Shi were trained by Sun Weiguo, and they could serve as company commanders or even battalion commanders in the future.
Shen Wei looked at the soldiers of the machine gun squadron, she had also been on the battlefield, and she had also commanded the troops to fight.
Looking at the expressions on the faces of the soldiers, she knew that Yang Xinghua was not lying, and the machine gun squadron was indeed elite.
"Light machine guns are lined up, and shooters disassemble machine guns." Sun Weiguo gave the order.
Liang Tieniu and other platoon commanders and squad leaders, as well as shooters, began to come out of the ranks, and they placed machine guns on the table while blindfolding them with black cloths.
With Sun Weiguo's order to begin, the personnel began to disassemble the Czech light machine gun.
The LMG was quickly disassembled, and the table was covered with LMG parts.
Shen Wei glanced at it, she couldn't help but be stunned, she had never seen someone who could disassemble a light machine gun blindfolded.
You know, many shooters don't even know how to disassemble a light machine gun, let alone blindfold.
"Assemble the light machine gun." Sun Weiguo gave the order again.
The shooters began to assemble the light machine guns, and Shen Wei's pretty face was full of consternation, and her seductive red lips were open enough to stuff an egg.
Assembling a light machine gun blindfolded, Shen Wei had never heard of it, but now these shooters can do it.
Six light machine guns were quickly assembled, and Liang Tieniu and other shooters took off the black cloth.
"It's not bad, I will inspect your homework at night, and I don't have to test my shooting, so as not to let you waste bullets." Sun Weiguo nodded with satisfaction.
Liang Tieniu and these veterans are very accurate in machine gun shooting, and assessing their machine gun shooting is a complete waste of bullets.
The ammunition of the Czech light machine gun is expensive, and Sun Weiguo is reluctant to waste it.
"Five hundred meters of target firing, heavy machine gun platoon began to fire." Sun Weiguo came to Zhao Wei's heavy machine gun platoon, and he gave the order.
Four heavy machine guns were deployed in different positions, and the steel helmets of Japanese soldiers were placed at a position of 500 meters.
Four shooters fired at the helmet, and two bullets hit the helmet accurately.
At a distance of 500 meters, fighters began to throw scarecrows, and these scarecrows began to move, and heavy machine gun shooters accurately hit the scarecrows.
Sun Weiguo, who was holding the binoculars, looked at it, and there was a satisfied expression on his face.
"Squad Leader Zhao, the heavy machine gun will continue to be trained, and strive to be able to hit targets of one thousand meters." Sun Weiguo said softly.
"Yes, Squadron Leader." Zhao Wei immediately stood up and said.
Sun Weiguo accompanied Shen Wei to assess the shooting of the mortar platoon, and then the two returned to the command headquarters, and the machine gun squadron continued to train.
Back in the headquarters, Shen Wei's impression of Sun Weiguo can be said to have changed a lot, and she realized that this Sun Weiguo is not simple.
The two talked in the headquarters, and Shen Wei put forward her own views on the future development of the county brigade.
When Sun Weiguo said some opinions, Shen Wei nodded and agreed very much.
In a short period of time, Shen Wei completely forgot about last night's unpleasantness, she felt that what Zhong Jian said made sense, Sun Weiguo was indeed a rare talent.
In the afternoon, the two squadrons also returned to Nanzhuang Village, and they brought back a lot of railroad tracks.
Sun Weiguo asked the soldiers to carry these rails and began to strengthen the fortifications of Nanzhuang Village.
And in the county seat, Ito Teru also got a report from the soldiers of the county brigade for destroying the railroad tracks.
It's just that Ito Hui knows that it is difficult to clear the county brigade with his current strength, and he can only turn a blind eye to this matter.
However, the Pingding County Brigade destroyed the Zhengtai Railway, and Ito Teru did not dare to bear this responsibility, so he immediately reported it to the authorities.
The above quickly gave Ito Hui a reply, and after getting the above announcement, Ito Hui had an excited smile on his face.
The North China Front assembled more than 20,000 troops to fight against the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region and failed, and the Japanese troops retreated to their original defensive lines.
However, the 129th Division, which was active at the junction of Hebei Province and Shanxi Province, brought a great threat to the Zhengtai Railway when assisting the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region in operations.
In order to retaliate against the 129th Division, the commander of the 20th Division, Kawagishi Fumizaburo, ordered the 40th Infantry Brigade to assemble and prepare to encircle and annihilate the troops of the 129th Division in six ways.
At the same time, Kawagishi Bunzaburo also received a report from the Japanese army in Binh Dinh County, and he also handed over the task of annihilating the County Brigade in Binh Dinh County to the 40th Infantry Brigade.
Ito Hui received the news before, and told Wang Mazi, this time Ito Hui got an accurate answer, and the Japanese army will start to act tonight.
The Japanese noticed that the troops of the 129th Division were operating in the area from Shouyang County to Heshun County, so they divided the troops into two parts.
The 40th Wing of the 79th Infantry Brigade followed the brigade headquarters to prepare in Shouyang County, while the 80th Wing, which was also part of the 40th Brigade, went to Pingding County with a division of the puppet army.
The 80th Wing sent an infantry brigade to the Pingding County Battalion to accompany a division of the puppet army to suppress the county brigade, and the rest of the troops marched westward to flank the 129th Division with the Japanese army in Shouyang County.
After getting this news, Ito Hui was naturally very happy, and he felt that the strength of a brigade could completely annihilate the county brigade.
What's more, there is also a cavalry division of the Mongolian army, and there is absolutely no problem for these troops to annihilate the county brigade of Pingding County.
Sun Weiguo knew nothing about the actions of the Japanese army, and at this time Sun Weiguo was leading the soldiers to strengthen the fortifications of Nanzhuang Village.
Now there are relatives of the soldiers in Nanzhuang Village, which is regarded as the base of the county brigade, and Sun Weiguo wants to protect it closely.
"Your arrangement is unreasonable, according to your arrangement, we are going to fight a positional war with the Japanese army, you are completely against the command of your superiors, we cannot fight a positional war with the Japanese army, we must adopt guerrilla warfare, only guerrilla warfare is suitable for our Eighth Route Army troops."
Seeing Sun Weiguo reinforcing his position, Fan Shuming came to Sun Weiguo with a fierce attitude, he pointed at Sun Weiguo's nose and said with a dissatisfied face.
Sun Weiguo, who was reinforcing the dark fortress, raised his head, and he glanced at Fan Shuming with contempt.
