The statistical results of the battle in Wangchang Village were placed on Zhang Shusheng's desk the next day, and looking at this report with a very gratifying battle loss ratio, he couldn't be happy anyway.

13 militia soldiers were killed and 28 wounded, and a total of 189 villagers were killed in Wangchang Village.

Of the more than 2,000 bandits, except for a very small number of bandits who escaped by strafing the second company of heavy machine guns, a total of 1,875 bandits were annihilated and 338 were killed, including 575 injured by rolling down the hillside. At present, there are 1,537 prisoners in the prisoner of war camp, ranging from the bandit leader Fan Mazi to the bottom.

According to the final statistics, there are only more than 1,200 bandits who are slightly injured or have their hands and feet intact and are able to participate in labor reform, and there are more than 300 bandits who are seriously injured.

As for the seizures, there were more than 500 worn-out rifles of various types, more than 1,000 shotguns, and hundreds of broadswords and spears. With the help of some soldiers of the second battalion who arrived at the end, the capture was not bad, but it was all in tatters.

"Let's talk about it, what to do with these things!"

In the office, Wu Tiejun, commander of the first battalion, Tie Sangan, commander of the second battalion, Zhuge Sheng, instructor, and Sun Changqing, chief of the commercial special investigation section of Shusheng Company, were all there.

Wu Tiejun felt uncomfortable all over his body for not being able to participate in this battle, especially after seeing such a huge result, he felt a little lost in his heart, "Regiment commander, the dead and wounded soldiers should be dealt with in accordance with the regulations on the aftermath of the casualties of the militia regiment." Worn-out rifles and muskets can be issued to the village guards that are about to be established in each village. It is better to return the broadsword and spear directly to the furnace into iron. As for those bandits, those whose hands and feet are intact or slightly injured are naturally reformed through labor, and those who are injured are originally guilty and deserved, and are not dealt with as felonies. ”

There is no opinion on the disposal of the seized materials, the key is these prisoners.

"Disposal is indispensable, but I think someone else should take care of it." Tie Sanqian didn't say much as usual, Zhuge Sheng spoke, he was very happy that the second battalion could catch up with the last moment in this battle, at least after this battle, Zhang Shusheng and other middle and senior officers of the militia would no longer have a grudge against the second battalion reorganized by the bandit army. "These more than 300 bandits, all of them are not lightly injured, if we just let us deal with it, first of all, the medical expenses are an astronomical amount. If they are not treated, they will all be shot, and it will leave the impression of being too brutal, and the impact will be too bad. I think it's better to send them to the Xiaoqingshan Town Office, and let them take the bandits to ask for merit and reward. As for whether they save the bandits or not, or how to deal with them, it doesn't matter to us......"

This is an excellent way to hand over more than 300 bandits, which is not only a merit, but also a necessary surname to curry favor with the lower bureaucrats and prove the existence of the militia. The most important thing is that a lot of trouble is pushed away.

Zhang Shusheng nodded, it's not that he can't afford to pay for it, first, these evil bandits deserve it, and it is already a good thing that he doesn't shoot them, if he treats them according to the so-called benevolence and morality of later generations, it will definitely be difficult to convince the public.

"Divide the 300 bandits into two parts, one part of the wounded will be handed over to the Xiaoqingshan Town Office in good condition, and the other part will be handed over to the Huiyuan County Political Axe. As for the battle report submitted to the Kunming military and political axe, it is said that at the junction of Sichuan and Yunnan, the bandit situation is complicated, and the militia group has fought a bloody battle with nearly 1,000 bandits, and the losses are extremely heavy. ”

The disposal of bandits can only be like this, and the aftermath of the casualties of the soldiers is what he is most concerned about, "Section Chief Sun, for this part of the casualties of the militia regiment, those who can enter the factory after being treated at public expense, arrange suitable jobs for them." For all the families of the dead and wounded soldiers, in the name of Shusheng Company, a special person will be sent to the door to issue an additional pension. The specific amount is preferentially considered, and you can ask Laixi to confirm the number and report it to me for review. ”

"Yes, don't worry, manager." Sun Changqing nodded, although he was a well-known miser in Shusheng Company, he was never ambiguous in major matters.

After the company and the militia decided on the post-war handling method, the officers and men of the grassroots militia also conducted an in-depth and detailed post-war review.

"In this battle, our second company was responsible for driving the bandits down the mountain. However, in the battle, facing the enemy only 100 meters away, many people did not even fire a few shots. Some are worse than women, throwing a grenade, but they just didn't hit their feet. Are you worthy of the company, the militia, the salary, and the head of the regiment? ”

Like other companies, Chen Jun and instructor Li Junming were also carrying out post-war summaries, and unlike the unlucky 1st Company, 3rd Company, and 2nd Battalion, the 2nd Company participated in actual battles, so although the 2nd Company exposed the most problems, it also gained the most.

Standing in front of the entire company, Chen Jun, dressed in military uniform, was reprimanding the second company. After a real battle, the whole of the second company began to admire this young company commander, who usually personally led the team in training, did not mess up things on the battlefield, and was brave and brave.

And Li Junming, the commander of the second company, although not as powerful as Chen Jun personally went into battle to kill the enemy, but he played the role of a staff officer in this battle to eliminate bandits. In this battle, everyone's performance is still obvious to all. With two participating companies, we suffered much fewer casualties than a company in reserve. As for Company Commander Chen's remarks that he couldn't shoot accurately and couldn't throw grenades far, I think part of the reason was that he was not experienced and prepared to participate in a battle for the first time. When you charge later, no one is afraid! ”

After the company commander made a speech of praise and criticism, he also entered the stage of the soldier's speech.

"Let's talk about it, if there are any problems found in this battle, say it and let the clerk remember it, and good opinions and suggestions should be given to the regiment commander." Li Junming made a start.

The soldiers did not talk to each other, and after a while, a short soldier spoke timidly, "Report instructor, I have a suggestion!" ”

"Stand up and speak!" The gaze of the entire company made the soldier blush.

"Report to the company commander, report to the instructor. I'm too short, but I have good eyes and can shoot accurately, so I'm a sniper in our squad. But I found that the position of the magazine of the Mauser rifle with the scope and the position of the sniper scope conflicted, and I could only press one bullet at a time, and the reload speed was too slow during the battle. ”

"Good, write it down. Is there anything else? If you have any opinions, this is related to your life and death. Chen Jun said sternly, and more and more soldiers began to raise their opinions.

"Report, are the grenades too heavy, you can only carry a few at a time...... It was all over in a few clicks. ”

"When I was lying on the mountain, one, a centipede got into my clothes......"

……

While listening to the summary of the company soldiers, Chen Jun walked over to a soldier in the corner, who, unlike the others, held a Mauser rifle in his arms and did not let go.

"He An, how have you been these days......" Chen Jun squatted down and asked in a low voice.

"Company commander. Pretty good! He An replied lightly, with a hint of blood red in his eyes.

"Well, it's all over, since you insist on asking for it, you can stay in the militia in the future." Chen Jun patted him on the shoulder, this frighteningly cold He An insisted on joining the militia group, "After the summary meeting is over, you come to my office." ”

Some opinions and suggestions that seemed to be minor problems but were actually major problems were quickly summed up by the actual combat companies, including the first reserve company, which also summed up a lot of combat experience and lessons.

Zhang Shusheng, who finally got the summary report of the militia group, also had a headache, the scientific and technological foundation was too weak, and he couldn't do many things that he knew clearly, such as the killing effect of the grenade was still low, the power of the explosives was insufficient, and the prefabricated cast iron bullet shell was difficult to achieve the most perfect split. There are no close-range support artifact mortars, there is a lack of real snipers, the canvas supply chain of heavy machine guns is too inefficient, and the number of artillery pieces is too small......

"Alas, science and technology, talents, talents, in the final analysis, education can't keep up. Ten years of trees, a hundred years of people, the legacy of the imperial examination has not been completely eliminated, many places can't even eat, and where do I go to find so many talents. ”

Closing the report, Zhang Shusheng felt that there were a bunch of things in front of him that needed to be solved, and the things that were basically difficult to solve at present went back to the most basic thing of education.

It took half an hour to write a plan, picked up the direct phone, Zhang Shusheng called Sun Laixi's phone and said, "Laixi, you come to my office immediately." ”

Sun Laixi came soon, and Zhang Shusheng handed him the plan, "Laixi, there is a mission this time, and you need to go to Shanghai in person." ”

"Recruitment?" Sun Laixi opened the plan, and it turned out to be a Xiaoqingshan recruitment plan.

Zhang Shusheng gave a brief explanation, and finally concluded: "You go with Herman, let him be your technical judge, and try to recruit the most suitable talents according to the requirements I wrote in the plan." Of course, you remember that the focus of this mission is not only the foreign talents in Shanghai, but also the people from the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau, don't be afraid to spend money, real talents, you just dig them for me. I'll let your father cooperate with you and manage enough. ”

"Don't worry, manager, hehe, I haven't been to Shanghai yet. Be sure to do things well for the company. Sun Laixi said happily.

Sending Sun Laixi away, Zhang Shusheng pondered for a long time, and finally decided to go to Kunming to see if there were suitable talents, there is a shortage of talents in all aspects, Shanghai is too far away, and it is not suitable for him to go in person. The two major towns of Kunming and Chengdu-Chongqing in Sichuan will be two or three places that he may visit in person.

As for going to Kunming first, he was a little selfish, calculating the time, the little girl of the He family has also been in Kunming for a few months, so it's good to go and see.
