The situation is turbulent and the social order is chaotic. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info For the Jing'an region, the Nationalist Government has also set up garrison troops in many places. In order to cope with the all-out attack of the Japanese army, most of these garrisons were greatly expanded.

In many cases, when the battle on the front line is tight, these garrisons will be filled into the main force. This approach is somewhat similar to that of the Eighth Route Army. It's just that in terms of management, the Central Army appears to be relatively chaotic.

According to the information provided by Li Zongren, the Huaibin Garrison Brigade had three regiments with a total of about 11,000 people. However, the next day, Li Xiangdong, who inspected Huaibin's defense, saw many so-called recruits dressed in ordinary people's clothes.

It may be understandable to say that these soldiers were not equipped because they lacked uniforms. But looking at these recruits who had no soldiers at all, and looked like young and strong recruits of the common people, Li Xiangdong soon knew the reason.

Compared with the Eighth Route Army, when recruiting soldiers, most of them still adopted the principle of voluntariness. Even when a reserve force is formed, most of them send some young people to participate in military training, and when there is no combat mission, they are also allowed to work as farmers at home.

However, in the Central Army, there is often a bad habit of eating empty salaries. In order to cope with the above inspections, young people are often arrested to deal with it. And these recruits, who seem to be unable to stand in the team, are only afraid that they are coming from strong men.

Faced with such a situation, Li Xiangdong looked at Liu Nuosheng, the slightly embarrassed garrison brigade commander beside him, and said, "Brigade Commander Liu, can you explain to me, how can there be such recruits in your army?" ”

Liu Nuosheng smiled and said, "Sir, I'm really sorry!" We have not been recruiting this batch of recruits for a long time, and we are still in the process of recruiting them. Due to the limited number of uniforms in the brigade, there was really no military uniform for them to wear. ”

Is that really the case? Are you sure that by sending such recruits into battle, they can really fight against the little devils? ’

There's no way around it! We are a garrison force, and we are mainly responsible for local security in peacetime, and occasionally fight bandits or something. Moreover, we were only a garrison regiment before, and then we were suddenly expanded into a garrison brigade on order.

The commander also knows how difficult it is to recruit soldiers when he has no money. What's more, the little devil is powerful, and many people are afraid to become soldiers. I've really done my best to pull up such troops. This is also the case everywhere else. ’

Even though Li Xiangdong looks young, he is a major general of the people and a special supervisor in the war zone. Even if Liu Nuosheng is a local snake, in the face of a person like Li Xiangdong, he also needs to be careful with one or two.

really wants to offend such a powerful person, for Liu Nuosheng, unless he is really willing to be a traitor and work for the little devil. Otherwise, in the face of a general like Li Xiangdong who represents the national government, he still needs to be polite.

Listening to Liu Nuosheng's explanation, although Li Xiangdong was a little angry, he also knew that the world was like this. Compared with the Kuomintang Autonomous Region, in the matter of recruitment, it is more likely to take the strong men. The situation in the base areas of the Eighth Route Army is undoubtedly better.

In an enemy-occupied area, the people there have seen the ferocity of the little devils, and they know how serious the consequences of not having a gun in their hands are. If you can join the army, you may also have a chance to survive and get some care from the Eighth Route Army.

After thinking for a while, he said: "Brigade Commander Liu, arrange all these recruits who have not been issued military uniforms for the time being to the baggage troops for me." In the next battle, they should not be sent to the battlefield to carry supplies and build fortifications.

In addition, I will send someone to inspect your three main regiments later, and some of the old, weak, sick and disabled will all be cleared out. I don't care what you did before, but this time we're going to do it with the little devils.

If you don't have any military skills, you haven't even shot a gun. Such troops, sent to the battlefield, are sent to die. Since you are the commander of the garrison brigade in Huaibin, you also need to be responsible for the lives of the people under your rule, understand? ”

Yes, the lesson of the chief is that the lowly must obey orders! ’

Looking at this Liu Nuosheng, who is a bit of an old fritter, Li Xiangdong has naturally seen a lot of such hob meat. And at this time, he appropriately threw out a little temptation, so that Liu Nuosheng would not think that he was too mean.

'When I came this time, Commander Li gave me a battalion of weapons, and I will select a group of soldiers in your brigade to form a main battalion. When the time comes, the battalion will all be equipped with the weapons I have brought. A good gun needs to be a good soldier, do you agree? ’

'Agreed! Of course I agree! It's just that I don't know if the equipment of this battalion will be able to stay in our garrison brigade after the war is over? The commander must also know that we, the garrison troops, are indeed very short of weapons and ammunition! ’

When Li Xiangdong specially dispatched a battalion to the three main regiments of the garrison brigade, he eliminated all those soldiers who knew at a glance that they were impersonations. All of these eliminated soldiers were placed in the logistics baggage troops.

Later, among the three main regiments, hundreds of elite soldiers with a certain degree of military literacy were selected to form a wartime guard battalion. The weapons that Li Xiangdong brought in were also distributed to the selected main battalion.

Looking at the issued medium and formal rifles, as well as the crooked machine guns of the little devils, these officers and soldiers who can be called the backbone of the garrison brigade are very excited. For these officers and soldiers, they naturally know the importance of good guns.

Compared with some of their troops, they are still using the old sleeve that has been rifled and polished, and this kind of medium and formal rifle that can only be equipped by the main force is undoubtedly much sharper. With such a good gun, the chances of surviving on the battlefield are also greatly increased.

After reorganizing the three main regiments, Li Xiangdong reorganized the remaining troops into two main regiments. The remaining regiment commander also temporarily served as the battalion commander of this main battalion. The regimental commander was very happy about this.

Of course, in order to give full play to the combat effectiveness of this main battalion, Li Xiangdong also sent a company to station. Let this stationed company serve as the temporary instructor of the selected main battalion, and guide them to fight the little devils when the time comes.

A series of reorganizations began, and Li Xiangdong also began a drastic reorganization war in Huaibin City. All the people who enter and leave Huaibin need to be inspected by the army before they can enter and leave Huaibin City.

As for the radio stations of the garrison brigades, they were likewise taken over. Even in order to guard against the presence of Japanese spies, Li Xiangdong also sent a small detachment to carry out a platoon. The purpose is to hope that the news of their entry into Huaibin City can be kept for a long time.

In fact, the 10th Division of the Japanese Army, which entered the territory of Huaibin, did not give Li Xiangdong much time to prepare. When he learned that the Huaibin garrison planned to hold the city, Yoshio Shinozuka was somewhat pleased to learn the news.

'Yo! It seems that they also know that it is useless to avoid fighting with us. Order our troops, prepare to encircle Huaibin City. We annihilated the defenders of the city and told the troops here that we were coming. ’

With Yoshio Shinozuka's order, the first Japanese troops to appear outside Huaibin City were the two tank squadrons on which the 10th Division of the Japanese Army depended. The remaining tank squadron served as a guard for the division headquarters.

Seeing the tanks and armored vehicles of these little devils appear, and the garrison guarding Huaibin City, they looked a little panicked. Those officers and soldiers guarding the city wall were even more timid. After all, tanks are still very scary!

It was also at this time that a main regiment brought by Li Xiangdong was split and a main battalion was placed on each city wall. As for the rest of the garrison, a battalion was also stationed on the city walls.

Considering that the siege also required the consumption of weapons and ammunition, the Japanese tank squadron that arrived outside Huaibin City quickly sent a few traitors to lead the way for them. Standing under the city gates, he was going to persuade the defenders of the city to surrender.

'Brothers of the national army in the city, don't resist anymore. As long as you are willing to lay down your arms and surrender, the Imperial Army is willing to give you a way to live. At this time, you should also think more about yourself, and don't cherish your life! ’

Listening to the persuasion of these traitors to lead the way, Li Xiangdong sneered: "Let the snipers kill these traitors and little devils who appear in the range for me." The guy who betrays the country for glory is not a pity to die! ”

As the snipers were in place one after another, the traitors who were escorted by the little devils to the city to persuade them to surrender soon heard the sound of gunfire coming from the city wall. With the sound of gunfire, these traitors who had defected to the Japanese army were soon killed under the city gate.

Seeing this scene, the garrison officers and soldiers on the city wall knew more or less. These few shots from the snipers are afraid that the back road for them to surrender will also be cut off. Next, if the little devils are allowed to attack Huaibin City, I am afraid that they will not have much way to live.

Looking at the officers and soldiers of the supervision regiment with stern expressions around them, the officers and soldiers of these garrison units also knew that this was the unit sent from above to supervise the war. Whoever offended these overseers, they also had no good fruit to eat.

It seemed that seeing the frustration of the officers and soldiers of these garrison brigades, the officers and soldiers of the reconnaissance regiment who assisted them in defending the city also said in a timely manner: "You also believe what the little devil said?" If you really want to be a prisoner of the little devil, you will know what it means to live rather than die!

Over the years, have there been fewer people who have surrendered to the little devils? Do you know what happened to them now? Either they were dragged to the mines by the little devils to mine for them, or they were simply used as targets by these little devils to practice bayonets. Do you want to die like that? ”

When such a remark was spoken, the officers and soldiers of the bold garrison brigade said: "Sir, is the little devil really so poisonous? ”

'What? You don't believe what we say, but do you think you can believe the words of the little devils outside the city? ’

gave these officers and soldiers of the garrison brigade a mocking look, and these officers and soldiers were also very decisive and silent. And at this time, the tank squadron outside the city finally planned to attack.

'Cheer up! The little devil is going to go into town! Don't worry, we've made so many preparations, and the little devils have successfully attacked the city, I'm afraid it's not that easy. Hold on for a few days and we'll be able to get out of here safely. ’

As the officers and men of the reconnaissance brigade in charge of supervision were pacified, the officers and men of these garrison brigades also knew. If they want to survive, they must stay here for at least three days. In fact, they only lasted one day.

The reason is that when the 10th Division of the Japanese Army began to attack Huaibin, the troops brought by He Zhengdao in advance had already begun to prepare to encircle it! (To be continued.) )
