Chapter 29 Pre-War Training
"Comrades, I want you to come to the meeting today to inform you of some things, as well as to arrange the combat mission of our reading division in the near future, seeing that the comrades are in such a good mood, political commissar, you can announce it!" Liu Hua said when he saw the cadres above the company level in front of him.
"Yes, Commander." The commissar took a copy of the reorganization plan that had been drawn up and stood up.
"Comrades, after reporting to the Central Revolutionary Military Commission for approval, the division commander proposed a unified reorganization of the whole division.
1. The heavy fire battalion was abolished, and an artillery battalion composed of three mortar companies was formed by extracting 36 mortars from the captured mortars, with Chen Guangrong as the battalion commander, and the artillery battalion had a baggage company under its jurisdiction, which was responsible for the transportation of artillery shells, all equipped with light weapons, and the battalion had a total of 500 people.
2. A heavy machine gun battalion was formed, with three companies of 12 heavy machine guns under its jurisdiction, with Zhu Ping, the former deputy commander of the heavy fire battalion, as the battalion commander, with a total of 300 people.
Three: The new battalion was changed to a new corps, with three battalions under its jurisdiction, and the 150 soldiers who came down from Jinggangshan formed the backbone to supplement the prisoner soldiers of 850 people, and the original 500 people formed a new regiment of 1,500 people, equipped with light weapons, and each battalion formed a machine gun platoon with 4 heavy machine guns. He Tie served as the head of the regiment, and Comrade Peng Qing served as the deputy commander.
Fourth, the 123rd Regiment is required to form an artillery company with 8 mortars, a regiment directly under the baggage company, a regiment directly under the guard company, a reconnaissance company, and a sniper platoon. Each of these battalions formed a platoon of 4 heavy machine guns, a platoon of guards, a platoon of reconnaissance. That is to say, each regiment must be expanded to meet the 3,000 men required by the division commander, of which 500 will be supplemented by the first regiment of the Red Army from Jinggangshan, 300 will be added to the second regiment and 300 each of the third regiment, and the vacant places will be filled by prisoners.
Five: The guard company directly under the division was promoted to a guard battalion, with Bruce Lee as the battalion commander, the reconnaissance company as the reconnaissance battalion, and Liu Xiaogang as the battalion commander, each with 300 people under its jurisdiction, and the personnel lacking were mainly selected from the Red Army soldiers in Jinggangshan.
Six: The rest of the remaining prisoners were all placed under the care of the baggage battalion, the baggage battalion had no limit on the number of people, and the sniper company remained unchanged.
That's all."
Looking at the surprised cadres below, the political commissar reminded.
"Division commander, political commissar, if this is the case, how many people are there in our division!" The head of the regiment, Sun Xingbang, asked with his mouth open.
"Not much, there are more than 12,000 people in the whole division," Liu Hua said with a smile looking at their surprised looks.
"Oh my God, it's not much, it's almost catching up with the main force of a regiment, my mother, where am I still the regiment commander, better than a division commander." Takahara sighed.
Seeing the surprised faces, Liu Hua reminded: "Comrades, don't be in a daze, cheer up, do you have the confidence to bring me my own soldiers, if not, I will directly withdraw you today, there are many people who can lead troops in my reading division." ”
Seeing the head of the regiment staring at himself with serious eyes, everyone's excitement "Yes"
"Okay, since everyone has confidence, I believe in you, I declare that during this time, the Reading Division does not have any combat missions, but you must train the troops for me during this time, especially those prisoners who have just joined the Red Army, and, from today onwards, our Reading Division will no longer have any prisoners, they are all our comrades, I will give you a day to organize the troops, and the personnel will be completed for me, and the people who should be picked, and the weapons that should be picked, in short, starting tomorrow morning, I ask the whole division, In addition to the reconnaissance battalion guarding everywhere, all units began a ten-day intensive training with the battalion as a unit, during which each soldier was allowed to fire 10 rounds of ammunition. ”
"Comrades, the division commander who should be said has already said that you must organize the troops in the fastest possible time and get a good grasp of training, we are now not short of weapons and ammunition, personnel, but we lack rich combat experience, qualified soldiers, we cannot let the division commander down, we can't let the party Central Committee down, do comrades have confidence?" The commissar continued.
"Yes"
"Okay, I'm waiting for the good news from the comrades, and the meeting will be dismissed."
"Teacher, how do I feel like I'm in a dream! There are so many people under him? Seeing that the cadres were walking out of the conference room, the political commissar patted his head and said.
"Hehe, commissar, there is no dream, the army will develop in the future, and then you will feel that you are dreaming!" Liu Hua smiled and said to the political commissar with a surprised face.
From the next day, the positions of the various battalions of the reading division began to be lively, some shouted slogans to practice assassination, some practiced bomb throwing and watched the soldiers of the first battalion practice in full swing, as a later generation Liu Hua couldn't help but want to be active, after discussing with the political commissar, Suo also picked up a rifle to practice assassination. You must know that the assassination practiced by Liu Hua is not an ordinary assassination, it was summed up by the People's Liberation Army in later generations based on years of battlefield experience, and it is all the essence. The commander of the first battalion and the commander of the first regiment present immediately saw the power of it, and their eyes straightened.
"Commander, where did you learn this method of stabbing?"
"Hehe, you say this, hehe, this is my own experience of fighting with the enemy with bayonets many times." Liu Hua said hesitantly.
"Divisional commander, can you tell us the essentials of the movement, because I see that your method of fighting bayonets is very different, but it is very lethal."
"When you can let it go" Liu Hua broke out in a cold sweat,
So, under the leadership of Liu Hua, the entire battalion began to follow its own division commander to train and fight stabs, and soon, most of the soldiers mastered the essentials and began to train each other. Liu Hua saw that the soldiers attached so much importance to their own stabs, and Suo surnamed Suo told the "three-three" tactics summarized by the military gods of later generations.
"The so-called three-three tactic is to use a group of three in a triangular formation when charging or assaulting again; Three groups and one team, listening to the first battalion commander and the first regiment commander and others shouted "good". After finishing speaking, he ordered Yiying to start training, Yiying would not be the old foundation of the original Red Tenth Regiment, and he quickly learned it. Seeing that the enthusiasm of the soldiers was so high, Liu Hua nodded.
"Commander Sun, go to the first battalion to find some soldiers with a good foundation, and promote the tactics of stabbing and charging to the whole division, and we must let all the readers master it." Liu Hua said.
"Yes, Commander, the mission will be completed." Liu Hua nodded.;
Looking at the enthusiastic training of the soldiers, some soldiers even took off their cotton clothes and military uniforms, Liu Hua almost shed tears, "What a good soldier, for the sake of his dreams, he left his family behind and trained without his life." ”
"By the way, political commissar, the soldiers have trained so much, how is the food for the soldiers?" Liu Hua thought of the hard work of the soldiers, turned his head and asked the political commissar.
"Divisional commander, it's good. There is enough rice every day, which is better than how many times better we did in the Soviet area. ”
"No, political commissar, the training of the soldiers is too large, just eating rice is not enough, political commissar, you approve a part of the ocean, hand it over to the cooking class, let them buy more fat pigs nearby, and require the soldiers to have two meals of pork to eat every day."
"Yes, Commander, I'll do it in a while." Liu Hua nodded with satisfaction.
"By the way, Commissar, we should have a lot of oceans now!" Liu Hua suddenly thought of something.
"That's right, division commander, a few million were seized last time, and only tens of thousands have been used so far." The political commissar looked at Liu Hua with puzzled eyes, not knowing what his partner had thought of.
"And so much, political commissar, you have to think of a way to exchange all these oceans for gold, and the little yellow croaker is fine, isn't Chaling a rich village? If you can't change here, you can go to other counties, in short, as soon as possible, the division headquarters will leave 150,000 oceans, and all the others will be replaced. Liu Hua thought of the Long March of later generations, the fiat currency that will be issued soon, you must know that only gold and the oceanic division have the most value, but unfortunately the ocean is too heavy, and it is convenient to exchange it for gold.
"Commander, why do you want to change it to gold!" The political commissar still doesn't know what his division commander thinks.
"Political commissar, we will transfer in a short time, how to fight with so many oceans, gold is different, convenient." Liu Hua whispered to the political commissar, because the whole army and the 26th Army Corps had not been announced.
The political commissar nodded, admiring his division commander even more, and even thought of this.
"Also, political commissar, now each regiment has a baggage company, you will allocate 10,000 oceans to each regiment, so that each regiment must reserve 2,000 sets of cotton military uniforms and uniforms, and Hunan is rich in bacon, requiring each regiment to reserve more baggage companies, how many to buy, and the same is true for the division headquarters baggage battalion, requiring the baggage battalion to reserve 5,000 sets of cotton military uniforms and uniforms before we act, and at the same time to collect a large amount of bacon and other food." Liu Hua thought of the Red Army's crossing of the grassland and the hard work of the Red 26th Army in later generations.
"Yes, division commander," although the political commissar didn't know why his division commander gave such an order, he believed that his division commander's order must be right, so he resolutely carried it out.
In this way, under the stimulation of pork, every soldier roared and trained, and now the combat effectiveness of the whole division can be said to have made a qualitative leap, looking at the soldiers whose bodies are constantly getting stronger and stronger, and the quality of individual soldiers has not only improved, Liu Hua is happy from the bottom of his heart.
After nearly ten days of preparation, the division headquarters has prepared more than 6,000 sets of quilts, and even more bacon, which is enough to load several large carts. Now Liu Hua's baggage camp is rich, and with the support of a large amount of funds, all of them have been replaced by mules and horses, with a total of 600 horses. Each regiment also had nearly 100 horses. In addition, now the artillery battalion has its own baggage company, and all the shells do not need to be transported by the baggage battalion, so Battalion Commander Li desperately buys supplies. But this Liu Hua is happy.
Looking at the increasingly powerful reader, Liu Hua was ready to start his next move.
