Chapter 44 Promoted to the Shonan Independent Regiment
When he was engaged in soil explosives training, he suddenly touched another nerve of Li Jiansheng. After thinking through the idea, I was overjoyed at the moment, knowing that I had another weapon.
You know, he himself is a hunter, and he will make some earth bombs to blow up bears, wild boars and other big prey. At this moment, I suddenly remembered the method of making self-made land mines and soil grenades, so I hurriedly found Yang Zhishen, Yuntian and a few others, and found Liu Laohan together to talk about the work of making land mines. Liu Laohan's eldest son, Liu Heyun, didn't feel much about this, but the second son, Liu Jinyun, was quite interested. Because of the technical support of Li Jiansheng, Yang Zhishen, and Yuntian, as well as the guidance of his father Liu Laohan, and the fact that he already knew a little, he only worked hard for one day to make this land mine. Try it, and it's really good. A few hi. Let Liu Jinyun preside over this. As for home-made grenades, Li Jiansheng and a few other hunters can also provide some of the technology, because these hunters also want to make small "flying thunders", that is, hunting weapons that are thrown out and then exploded, and now of course they can be used as a certain model. Li Jiansheng and 11 others came down from Jinggang Mountain, each of them also had two standard grenades, and now Li Jiansheng donated two to make a model book, so that Liu Jinyun could try to make it according to the model.
Liu Jinyun's movements were fast.
On the third day, Liu Jinyun made two grenades. After a try, the effect is not bad, but it needs further improvement. On the fifth day, when Li Jiansheng tried again, although he still couldn't achieve the effect of the standard grenade, it was far beyond Li Jiansheng's imagination, and he was overjoyed. At the moment, the weapon research institute was rewarded with 2,000 silver dollars, and some ingenious soldiers were hired to join in to help, and "three shifts" assisted in the production of land mines and native grenades. Almost at the same time, following Li Jiansheng's order, He Changming, He Xiaolu, and Cai Zhong persuaded several local craftsmen who knew how to make explosives to be directly incorporated into the weapons research and development institute led by Liu Laohan, which was mainly responsible for the production of explosives. The raw materials for making explosives are bought and used, and they are not only bought and used at the same time, but also have a large amount of reserves. For reserves, Li Jiansheng has experience. In his previous life, he was an out-and-out moonlight clan, so he was quite constrained by the economy, which gave him a great and profound lesson. Therefore, this life has firmly remembered this.
It is worth mentioning that when making this land mine, those bottles and cans suddenly touched Li Jiansheng's heartstrings. As a result, a mixture of gasoline, sugar, etc., put it into a bottle, and then plug the mouth of the bottle with a strip of rotten cloth to make the simplest incendiary bottle.
With these weapons, two arms came into Li Jiansheng's field of vision: grenadiers and engineers. The former, which is mainly responsible for throwing bombs, including grenades and Molotov cocktails; The latter is mainly responsible for laying mines. Li Jiansheng personally demonstrated for this, let everyone learn to throw bombs and bury mines, and even asked Zhao Boping to pay attention to some people with good arm strength and good hand feeling, and organize them into professional grenadiers; Others, who were born of Orion and some who were ingenious, were gathered together to be trained as sappers.
Soon, all aspects were on the right track again, and it was another month of practice. Fortunately, Li Jiansheng's time to capture Yizhang was really well chosen. Zhao Boping and the others also talked to Li Jiansheng and said that he was Chairman Jiang's baton, because it was really like his original judgment, no one really scratched it for several months, which gave everyone enough time to train the troops.
Because of the harvest and all the peace, everyone has a very comfortable life this year. This winter, it was snowing in Yizhang, and everyone was hiding at home, but Li Jiansheng felt that this was a rare opportunity to train soldiers. At that moment, he personally led the team with several battalion leaders, took out all the troops, and practiced in the snow, sometimes lying in the snow for several hours. As a result, the problem came out, this camouflage uniform, which is easy to use in the jungle, but is particularly eye-catching in the snow. This reminded Li Jiansheng and a few. Li Jiansheng suddenly remembered the book "Lin Hai Snow Plain" that he had read in the past, and he had a solution at the moment: each native soldier prepared some white cloth as cover.
In fact, this training in the snow was not as Li Jiansheng saw, only training the soldiers and discovering shortcomings, and more importantly, for the first time, his unit had the feeling of fighting and living in the snow and snow, and later when the Long March crossed the snowy mountains, his unit was the most well-prepared and targeted, and it was the only unit in the entire Red Army with zero non-combat attrition! Of course, this is also a later story, so I won't show it for the time being.
But it was said that after a few months of recuperation, when the spring of 1930 came, Li Jiansheng's troops were already different. After several months of training, the soldiers' physical fitness, military posture, and thinking have been improved by more than one grade. The equipment has also been fully equipped. Each soldier was equipped with two standard military uniforms, including a gray cloth uniform and a camouflage uniform. Each soldier was equipped with an armed belt, a standard water bottle, etc. Although there were not enough iron kettles, every soldier was equipped with drinking water kettles, and with the exception of some soldiers who used confiscated standard military kettles, most of them used simple kettles made of bamboo tubes. This kettle is easy to make because this bamboo is produced locally in large quantities. As for multifunctional sapper shovels, standard three-shuttle spurs, homemade shotguns, homemade grenades, homemade mines, homemade explosives packs, and so on, they have also begun to equip the troops in batches. While it is not possible to guarantee that every soldier will be fully equipped, it is ensured that every soldier has a weapon in his hand. Yuntian's special service company and guard communication squad are fully equipped.
Seeing that the year had passed and his own troops had taken shape again, Li Jiansheng finally decided to reorganize the troops. At that time, together with the scattered soldiers of the 29th, 30th, and 33rd regiments of the former 29th, 30th, and 33rd regiments, as well as new recruits who had newly signed up to join the army, Li Jiansheng had an astonishing number of more than 1,520 soldiers on hand. After several discussions, Li Jiansheng, He Gongming, and others decided to reorganize the unit as follows:
The unit was upgraded from a veritable "Shonan Independent Battalion" to a "Shonan Independent Regiment" and set up a military flag. There is a regimental headquarters, which consists of three combat battalions, a logistics baggage company, a guard communications company, an engineer company, a grenadier company, a sniper platoon, a reconnaissance platoon, a weapons research institute, a clothing factory, and an iron bureau.
The regiment leadership consisted of 8 people. The head of the regiment was personally appointed by him Li Jiansheng; He Changming, Secretary of the Party Committee and Political Commissar; Yang Zhishen, deputy head of the military regiment; Cai Zhong, deputy head of the regiment in charge of logistics, baggage and separate units; Yun Tian, deputy regiment commander in charge of special operations; Zhao Boping, Director of the Political Department; Chief of Staff Wang Hanying; Zeng Xiangyang, director of the soldiers' committee. Li Jiansheng first set up the post of "political commissar" in the regiment, but of course the content in charge was still the same as before. In addition, he specially proposed Yun Tian to be the deputy head of the regiment.
