At the meeting, Ma Zheng made some adjustments to the personnel in the battalion, and since the number of troops has now expanded, he can no longer be the only battalion-level cadre as before, which is very detrimental to the development of the troops. If he had any strengths and weaknesses that day, if there was no one who could convince the troops to support the situation, the consequences would be unimaginable.

After the adjustment, Huang Sicheng was promoted to deputy battalion commander, and Wang Hansen was promoted to battalion instructor, but due to the lack of military cadres, their colleagues still had to concurrently serve as the company commanders of the first and second companies.

Wu Xiuda is still the commander of the third company, and the newly formed fourth company, fifth company, and guard company are respectively served by Huang Bingyan, Chen Xudong and Xu Xiaolin as acting company commanders.

The commanders of the special combat team and the women's special service company have not changed, and they are still Tie Niu and Li Haiyan, while the newly formed cavalry company and machine gun company are respectively Ma Desheng and Li Mingda, the acting company commanders.

Ma Desheng used to work in the cavalry regiment of the Northwest Army and served as a company commander, and later changed to infantry after joining the Red Army, and now it is time to return to his old job. In addition, the cavalry soldier ** Zheng himself doesn't understand, so he can only hand it over to him, the only person who knows how to do it.

Li Mingda, who was previously in the artillery company of the 13th Army of the Gui Army, was captured in the battle against the Red Army, and then joined the Red Army. Later, he followed the troops until he arrived in northern Shaanxi, and he was also the only person in Ma Zheng's department who knew artillery, and he was proficient, so Ma Zheng appointed him as the acting company commander of the machine gun company.

Of course, Ma Zheng also made it clear to them in advance that their positions are only temporary agents, and it depends on their own performance when they will become regulars.

After the reorganization of the unit was completed, it was uniformly changed under the auspices of Ma Zheng, and then it was put into intense training.

Until this time, the 120th Division and even the entire Eighth Route Army headquarters did not know that Ma Zheng's headquarters had actually captured a county town controlled by the Japanese army and killed about 300 Japanese soldiers.

At the headquarters of the 120th Division, Division Commander He looked at the telegram just sent from the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army with his iconic pipe in his mouth, and then frowned and said to the cadres of the 120th Division: "The headquarters' punishment for us has come down, in view of the command mistakes in the last ambush battle, which led to heavy losses to the troops, the headquarters severely criticized our 120th Division headquarters, and recorded a big mistake to the commander of the teaching regiment. ”

Deputy Division Commander Xiao frowned and said: "Actually, I don't blame the headquarters for being so angry, we were too light on the enemy last time, otherwise the first battalion would not have been wiped out." ”

Division Commander He nodded and said: "Don't talk about this, the teaching regiment is the shelf unit of our 120th division, and it may be expanded into a brigade at some point, so the establishment cannot be disabled, and we must rebuild a battalion of the teaching regiment." ”

"Hey, it's just a pity that the horse madman, the dignified Red Army division commander died just after fighting with the Japanese devils, and I don't know how his little daughter-in-law is sad!" Deputy Division Commander Xiao sighed and said.

"It's all fate, maybe we will be the next to die in battle, let that madman go down there and explore the way for us first. Forget about him, what's the little devil doing these days? ”

"Yes, the fifth division, the main force of the little devils"

Due to the interruption of communications, no one knew that Ma Zheng was still alive and had gained a firm foothold in Chanan, including the leaders of the Eighth Route Army Headquarters, who accepted the fact that the first battalion of the Teaching Regiment had been completely annihilated.

Although the Eighth Route Army overturned the matter, the Japanese army stepped up time to investigate who broke through Fengzhen County. If only two or three hundred soldiers died, it would have been counted, but at the same time, an entire infantry division of weapons and equipment had been lost, and these weapons and equipment could not fall into the hands of the Chinese army in any case.

Therefore, Chahar sent the commander of the corps, Hideki Tojo, to send an urgent telegram ordering the supreme commander in Chanan, Sakai Hoji, to find the murderer and recover all the lost weapons and equipment.

Ma Zheng didn't pay attention to the disturbances outside, and he took advantage of this rare opportunity to hide in Hades Mountain to train soldiers. At the same time, a large number of revisions were made to the training syllabus of some time ago, and a systematic "Soldier Training Syllabus" was compiled.

At the same time, in order to allow the special combat team to form combat effectiveness, Ma Zheng also secretly drew up a "Special Forces Training Program." However, unlike the "Soldier Training Syllabus" issued to each company, this "Special Forces Training Syllabus" is only known to Ma Zheng himself.

Because this "Special Forces Training Syllabus" is a training method formulated by Ma Zheng in accordance with the training methods of special forces in later generations and in combination with the actual situation of this era. Compared with the current mainstream military theory, it is too shocking to the world, and he can put it into practice, but he cannot put this outline into writing and writing, otherwise it will inevitably bring many unpredictable consequences when it is circulated in the future, and Ma Zheng cannot afford to gamble.

At the same time of training, Ma Zheng did not forget to carry out all-round construction of Hades Mountain, in the past, Hades Mountain was just a bandit den, although the terrain was dangerous, but there were no decent fortifications, otherwise Ma Zheng and others would not have been able to take Hades Mountain so easily.

The most important thing is that Ma Zheng knew that if the army he led wanted to develop and grow, it would inevitably have to fight the Japanese army, and it would not work without a solid base. And it is only a matter of time before the Japanese army attacks Hades, so while the Japanese army has not yet discovered them, they should seize the time to build this place impregnable.

The defense system on the mountain was designed by Ma Zheng himself, and Ma Zheng sent people to flatten the two gentle slopes nearby, and flattened the mountain pass in front of the mountain pass, so that no matter how many people the enemy came, they would be exposed to the fire coverage of the department.

In addition, from the foot of the hill to the top of the mountain, three strong lines of defense were arranged in succession, each of which consisted of cement concrete pillboxes and trenches. The bunker was divided into two levels, one was exposed and the other was buried deep in the earth, with ammunition stored while people living underneath, and shooting at the top.

In order to prevent the enemy's aviation from bombing the bunker, Ma Zheng sent people to find a large number of sleepers to place on the bunker, and then cover it with sand, which not only prevented the bunker from being bombarded by high altitude or heavy artillery, but also protected the soldiers in the bunker from being injured by the shock wave of the explosion.

Mount Hades is steep cliffs on the east and west, and the bandits before did not make any arrangements on these sides. But in Ma Zheng's eyes, these two sides are definitely the weakness of Hades Mountain. If the Japanese army sent special forces to attack, they could completely repeat their previous tactics, so Ma Zheng also cultivated a lot of fortifications on both sides to ensure that they would not be exploited by the enemy.

In addition, Ma Zheng also planned the buildings on the mountain, and all important institutions such as military barracks, ammunition depots, and hospitals were moved into large caves to avoid being bombed by the Japanese air force.

All the soldiers also knew Ma Zheng's intentions, so after the order was given, the construction enthusiasm of each company was high. Soon, the entire Hades Mountain was transformed by Ma Zheng's subordinates, and even if the Japanese army immediately sent heavy troops to attack, they were confident that the Japanese army would be blocked at the foot of Hades Mountain.

While training the troops and building Hades Mountain, Ma Zheng did not forget to let Xu Xiaolin collect information on the bandits nearby, because the next target of his subordinates was those bandits. Just like Ma Zheng said before, bandits are high-quality resources in his eyes, so they must all be in his hands.
