Chapter 62 Upgrading to an Artillery Regiment
When Li Jiansheng heard this, he smiled, and briefly introduced the origins of these people: they were all the backbone of various regiments of the former Red Army, who were wrongly criticized, and were later rescued by their own Xiangjiang River. At the moment, I lack cadres, so I use them first. When Luo Ronghuan heard this, he nodded, thought about it again, and said, "You must have your principles when you use cadres." I'm sticking with you. Rest assured, you use it boldly. I said, why do these people sound familiar, it turns out that they are all veteran cadres of the First Army. Well, most of these ** have been wrongly criticized, and I think they are used. The central dignitaries are responsible, and I am responsible! ”
Hearing this, Li Jiansheng smiled, only thinking that this big brother was really a man. smiled at the moment: "My big political commissar, what do you have to bear this responsibility?" The worst is that the two of us will lose together! After that, he added: "As for the original 46th, 47th, and 48th regiments, the battalion that was taken out of each of them was also selected from the recruits. No, after more than 900 people were transferred, the rest were organized into three battalions and 2,100 people at once! All of them were replenished to the three main regiments. For the time being, all the rest were assigned to the artillery battalion and the engineer regiment. ”
I see! Luo Ronghuan nodded, feeling emotional. Well, all of a sudden, this regiment has expanded by another regiment! On second thought, the corps commander was right in this arrangement, and the artillery battalion and engineer regiment should also be expanded. Immediately he asked: "How is the expansion of the artillery battalion?" ”
Li Jiansheng said with a smile: "Liu Fugui is so happy now!" The original artillery battalion was actually a merger of the original two artillery battalions, which was regarded as a reinforced artillery battalion. Three artillery batteries per battalion. Each company was standard, with 6 guns. In other words, Liu Fugui's artillery battalion had 6 artillery companies and 36 artillery pieces. 75 medium mortars, 60 light mortars, and 48 self-made light earth cannons'12 each. This time, the number of artillery captured alone was several times higher. The three brigades of the 16th Hunan Division, each brigade captured 12 60 light mortars, which is the equipment of 6 artillery batteries. This does not include the capture of a whole battalion of Forbes guns, a total of 36 guns, and the capture of 9 mortars reserved for the baggage units of the 16th Division. Today, the enemy's 62nd Division was annihilated, and three combat brigades with a total of 36 mortars were captured, as well as 9 mortars reserved by the division's baggage troops. Commissar, you see, the captured mortars alone, that is, 90, and the captured Forbes mountain guns 36. In this way, 90 60 mortars can be organized into two 60 mortar battalions and one 60 mortar reinforced company. Speaking of which, I just have something to discuss with you! ”
As soon as Luo Ronghuan heard Li Jiansheng's introduction, he was already fascinated. Artilleryman, that's the king of war. When we were in the Central Red Army, I am afraid that the entire Red Army did not have so many artillery, and I didn't think that the current Red Seventh Army Corps, in two days, fought four battles, and won all battles, and there were such rich captures! Well, this Li Jiansheng's means of getting equipment is really unusual! Is it any wonder that when he said that he would disband, the artillery division would be disbanded, and his feelings have long been seen today?
sighed in his heart, and when he heard Li Jiansheng ask like this, his heart turned, and he guessed what was going on, and immediately smiled: "The commander of the corps said the planning of the artillery?" ”
Li Jiansheng nodded, thought about it, and said, "I mean, the artillery battalion will restore the specifications of the artillery regiment." It has one Forbes Hill artillery battalion, three mortar battalions, and two artillery companies directly under its jurisdiction. Forbes Mountain Artillery Battalion, with 36 mountain guns; three Type 60 mortar battalions, two of which are fully staffed, 36 60 mortars each; A non-full formation, that is, the original 12 60 mortars and the newly formed 60 mortar reinforced company, which has 18 guns, a total of 30 60 mortars. As for the 12 Type 48 light earthen guns and 12 Type 75 medium mortars, each of them is organized into a company, which is still a direct company, and there will be a chance to expand it in the future! ”
When Luo Ronghuan heard this, he thought: This is the establishment of four battalions and two other companies, so of course he is qualified to be promoted to an artillery regiment. I have always known the Red Seventh Army and found that they have been able to make Type 48 light earth cannons by themselves, which is a great achievement. It was only because the troops were in constant motion that the Legion's Weapons Development Institute temporarily stopped producing the earthen artillery, but was still responsible for the daily maintenance of all artillery. Come to think of it, wait a little while, and when it settles down, the production of these earthen cannons can be resumed immediately, and at that time, this artillery, there is no need to worry! Thinking of this, Luo Ronghuan nodded and agreed with Li Jiansheng's opinion on upgrading the artillery battalion to an artillery regiment. Li Jiansheng saw that the political commissar also nodded, so he asked the staff officers around him to draw up a notice, and he and the political commissar signed and approved it. There is only one theme, the reorganization of the artillery battalion and the upgrading of the artillery regiment. The regimental commander and the regimental political commissar were automatically promoted from the original battalion commander and battalion instructor.
Liu Fugui really opened his mouth. Hello! It's not that I've been promoted again. You know, he has been an artillery division commander, so why do you care about this artillery commander? He cares about two things, one is that as the commander of the legion said, he will develop in the future. Thinking that at the beginning, he couldn't accept the dispersal of his artillery division. Fortunately, the corps commander said that he would engage in an artillery corps in the future. Thaksin Commander. This legion commander is really godly, and he said that there is. It's only been a long time, and his own artillery battalion is an artillery regiment. At this rate, if we destroy a few more divisions, we will definitely be an artillery division! The second is this seizure. Forehead drop god, those are real guys! Where's the Forbes Hill Cannon, new guy! Mortars captured from the enemy's baggage forces, also new guys! For those guns that were blown up, the Weapons Development Institute gave a reply: they can all be repaired! Oops, our Liu Fugui is going to send it again!
This night, Liu Fugui slept very well. I fell asleep smiling very contentedly. Of course, not only did he sleep well this night, but the entire Red Seventh Army slept well. Shao Qianjin is one. At the same time as the order to appoint Liu Fugui as the commander of the artillery regiment, there was also an order to upgrade the cavalry company to a cavalry battalion and to automatically promote the former cavalry company commander and instructor to the commander and instructor of the cavalry battalion. The cavalry battalion has four companies, each with 80 horses. There is also a cavalry platoon directly under the battalion headquarters with 30 horses.
After four battles, more than 280 horses were captured. Although more than 80 of them were to be handed over to Xu Zhengfang's logistics baggage system, his cavalry company was also replenished with more than 210 horses. In fact, according to the original plan, the cavalry company could not replenish so much, or Xu Zhengfang felt that following Li Jiansheng would definitely win the battle again, and this war horse would definitely have it in the future, maybe there would be one tomorrow, so he let a horse go, and deliberately let the baggage system collect more than 10 horses, but it was sold to Shao Qianqian to save face. Of course, Shao Qianjin was very happy. You know, with the existing war horses before, his cavalry company has reached 352 horses, and is rushing to 400! Although it was not yet 400, he was sure that his horses would be able to reach that number in a few days or a dozen days. Therefore, at the moment, I don't particularly care, just step up the training of cavalry! Looking at his new herd, this man slept very well that night. In his dream, he saw himself commanding thousands of cavalry to charge forward. Ho ho, that's not hundreds, it's thousands, tens of thousands......
There are those who sleep well, and of course there are those who do not sleep well, but it is several leaders of the central government. After learning about the great victory of Xianxi from Li Jiansheng and Luo Ronghuan, several leaders were happy. You know, it's only been a long time, and even two entire divisions of the enemy have been annihilated, but it's a remarkable achievement! A congratulatory message was sent immediately! Many years later, Mao Weiren's guards said that that night, the great man stood in the courtyard and took a good look in the direction of Xiangnan! The excited smile on his face can be felt by people from afar!
