It was night, and the squadron leader Inoue Kazuo, who was stationed in Yuanshi County, had just fallen asleep. He was dreaming that he had been promoted to the commander of the division, and that he had been received by the emperor for his outstanding military achievements, and that Empress Ryoko would personally wear a medal for him. After pinning the medal, Empress Ryoko stroked his chest and said, "Yo Xi, Inoue-kun is really a strong man!" ”

Hearing this, Inoue Icio trembled with excitement. He was about to say something when there was a sudden loud bang in his ears, and the figure of Empress Ryoko gradually became blurred. Inoue Ueo was taken aback, and hurriedly reached out to grab it, but he didn't catch anything. In this hurry, he opened his eyes - woke up! I only heard someone outside knocking desperately on the door, still calling his name.

Inoue Ueo was furious and shouted, "Yaga! Who is making noise outside. ”

Executive Officer Taro Ishida's panicked voice came in from outside: "Squadron leader, it's not good, something big happened at the train station!" ”

Inoue Icio has not woken up from his sweet dreams at this time. He muttered, "What could be the big deal?" Can't you go and deal with it? ”

Taro Ishida was so anxious that he was sweating, and shouted: "Inoue-kun, something really happened!" The train station was now empty, the staff and soldiers were gone, and anti-war slogans were painted on the walls. ”

Inoue Ueyu was taken aback and said, "What? You are talking nonsense! Didn't we have a squad of soldiers stationed there? ”

Taro Ishida said with a sad face, "It's all gone!" Not a single person can be found! ”

The door opened with a bang, and Inoue Icio came out in his pajamas. He grabbed Ishida and said, "What happened, you tell me clearly!" ”

Ishida Taro was too nervous, and the more he talked, the more he stammered. Inoue pushed him away angrily, gathered his troops and hurried to the train station outside the city.

There is already a detachment at the train station looking for it, which was sent by Taro Ishida after receiving the news.

Inoue asked, "What the hell is going on here?" What's going on now? ”

The detachment leader, Junmiya Koyama, said with a look of horror: "Report that the captain, the staff of the railway station and the soldiers stationed at the station are all gone. There are also many anti-war slogans written on the outer wall of the station, which are written in Japanese! ”

Inoue's eyes went black and he almost fell to the ground. Led by Xiaoshan, he finally saw the slogans. Some wrote "oppose the war and oppose the emperor", some wrote "the war of aggression against China was unjust", and some wrote "soldiers shed blood on the front line, and their families suffered at home", all in Japanese, and the calligraphy is still very beautiful.

An angry Inoue yelled at these slogans: "Yaga, wipe them off, wipe them all!" ”

Xiaoshan said cautiously: "Squadron leader, this matter is very important, I am afraid that I will have to report it to the military police." ”

Inoue Ueo thought for a moment and sighed dejectedly, waved his hand, and said, "Forget it!" ”

The garrison of Yuanshi County only found that the railway station staff and the garrison team were missing, but they did not find anything about the military train. The 14th Division, on the other hand, did not receive a column until the next day, and did not realize that something was wrong. Then they searched all the way and finally found a wrecked train somewhere.

The intelligence services quickly stepped in to investigate, but it took them a long time to find out a little bit because there were not many clues about the two incidents. Of course, during this time, the Japanese troops were not idle, and they frantically swept around from time to time, trying to recover lost supplies and defectors.

When the Japanese army went crazy, Zheng Weiguo and the others had already returned to Ping'an County with supplies. The supplies of the twelve wagons were piled together like a small mountain bag. The security corps has never had such abundant supplies. After thinking about it, Zheng Weiguo decided to change and reorganize his subordinate departments.

Although the various units have just been readjusted, the situation has changed now, and it is natural to keep pace with the times. Duan Shuanghu rushed back after getting the news, and when he saw such supplies, he was both happy and annoyed. He complained so hard that he shouldn't have been entangled with the bandits, so much so that he missed such a good opportunity.

Zheng Weiguo said with a smile: "Don't worry, there will be such opportunities in the future!" ”

Duan Shuanghu said: "Luzao, then you must call me next time!" He looked at the weapons piled up in the mountains and said, "Brigade seat, how are you going to distribute these weapons?" ”

Zheng Weiguo said: "I plan to reorganize the troops first, and then change their outfits one after another. ”

Duan Shuanghu was puzzled: "Didn't the troops be reorganized once after driving out the Nagano United?" Why do you want to reorganize it? ”

Zheng Weiguo smiled: "The situation is different!" I thought about it carefully and felt that the current establishment did not play to our strengths, so some adjustments had to be made. I'll tell you the rough plan, and you can help me check it. ”

If others would definitely say that his ability is limited and he is honestly afraid, but Duan Shuanghu will not, he has always been straightforward and fast-talking. Duan Shuanghu said with some excitement: "Say it, I'll listen!" ”

Zheng Weiguo nodded and said: "At present, our brigade and regiment levels are merged, and the independent combat unit is the battalion, and the battalion has a company, platoon, and squad, which means that there are five levels between the soldier and the regimental headquarters. ”

Duan Shuanghu interjected and said, "Yes, but what's wrong with this?" Isn't that the case with the regular army? ”

Zheng Weiguo shook his head and said, "There is nothing wrong with the establishment itself, but it is not suitable for our current situation. At the moment we have increased our strength, and there are nine infantry battalions alone. But how many people are there in each battalion? The largest battalion had only about 500 men, and the smallest ninth battalion had less than 200 men. With such a small number of troops divided into so many levels, it is extremely inconvenient to command. In addition, we have too few qualified officers, which also seriously affects the combat effectiveness of the troops. Therefore, I intend to abolish the establishment at the company level and use the platoon as the basic combat unit. ”

Duan Shuanghu was a little surprised and said, "Cancel even this level!" Are you sure this is necessary? I have also seen quite a few national troops, and their battalion is not more than ours. Generally speaking, there are about 10 people in a squad, about 30 people in a platoon, 100 people in a company, and about 300 people in a battalion. In my opinion, not only should the company not be abolished, but the regimental level should also be established, and we must already have nine battalions! ”

In fact, not only the National Army, but also the Eighth Route Army later formed a number of regiments of about 1,000 people. Such troops are generally all riflemen, lacking machine guns and technical arms, and their ability to fight positional warfare and attack fortified positions is very weak, which is not what Zheng Weiguo hopes and needs.

Zheng Weiguo waved his hand and said: "Don't learn from the national army, but find a way that suits us." ”

Duan Shuanghu thought for a moment and said, "With the platoon as an independent combat unit, that is, to strengthen the strength and firepower of the infantry platoon?" ”

Zheng Weiguo nodded and said, "Yes!" According to my assumption, each platoon should have stronger strength and firepower than the Japanese squad in order to have an advantage in battle. ”

Duan Shuanghu said: "Then you can talk about the specific configuration." ”

Zheng Weiguo said: "Each platoon has three infantry squads, one machine gun squad, and one grenadier squad, with a total of about 80 people. Each infantry squad consisted of 15 people, including a machine-gun group and two rifle groups. Each rifle group has a high-level marksman, who does not participate in the charge during the battle, and is only responsible for eliminating the enemy at a fixed point. The machine gun squad was armed with three light machine guns, and the grenadier squad was equipped with three grenadier canisters. ”

Duan Shuanghu thought for a while and said, "I didn't make it clear, what is the difference between the machine gun team in the rifle squad and the machine gun squad directly under each platoon." Why don't you put all the machine guns in the rifle squad, or simply concentrate all the machine guns in one squad? This makes it easier to manage. ”

Zheng Weiguo smiled: "It seems that you are listening attentively." ”

He explained that the main role of the machine gun team in the rifle squad was to protect the riflemen from attacking, and if necessary, they could charge the enemy line with the synchronous gunners, while the machine gun squad was mainly responsible for suppressing the enemy's firepower. The members of the machine gun crew are equipped with long guns in addition to the shooter, which is convenient for attacking with the synchronized troops. The members of the machine gun squad are equipped with short guns in order to carry more ammunition and restrain the devil's bayonets when they are in close combat. Of course, the establishment is dead, but the people are alive, and the front-line commanders can make temporary adjustments according to the actual situation on the battlefield.

Duan Shuanghu pondered for a moment and said, "I kind of understand. To put it bluntly, add three light machine guns to each platoon to increase the firepower. ”

Zheng Weiguo smiled and said, "It can also be understood in this way. "Actually, there's a big difference between squads and grouping, they belong to two different tactical ideas.

Duan Shuanghu asked again: "What about the local troops?" Is this also the case? ”

Zheng Weiguo shook his head and said, "No, what I just said is only the four main battalions. The local battalion was also abolished at the company level, and a heavy machine-gun platoon, a cavalry platoon, and a number of infantry platoons were under its command. But the infantry platoon of the local troops differed from the main forces. ”

According to Zheng Weiguo's plan, the local troops would have only three infantry squads under each platoon, each with a light machine gun and a grenadier canister, and the strength would be slightly larger than that of the Japanese detachment. The reason for this arrangement is that the local troops mainly engage in low-intensity, small-scale battles, such as guerrilla warfare or raid warfare, and most of them are based on squads in specific operations. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the firepower at the class level. In addition, due to the different tasks undertaken by the local battalions, the number of infantry platoons to which they belong can be adjusted according to the actual situation, for example, the fifth battalion has a large defensive area and the heaviest task, and can set up four or five platoons.

Duan Shuanghu was silent for a long time and said, "Sounds good, what about the weapons, are they all Japanese-style?" ”

Zheng Weiguo said: "Yes, now there are the most Japanese-style weapons, and there are more bullets of six or five calibers, so it would be too wasteful not to use them." ”

Duan Shuanghu said: "Didn't you keep saying that the 38 big cover is not as good as the 79 series rifles? We now have a lot of 79 caliber rifles, so it is better to let one of the main battalions use all 79 caliber rifles. ”

Zheng Weiguo thought for a moment and said: "The problem is that we have too few seven-nine caliber bullets now, so let's give priority to ensuring the use of machine guns." The nine battalions were all covered with 38 battalions. The replaced Hanyangzao was handed over to the district cadres and the village-level militia for use. Except for some of the rifles used by the regimental units, the rest of the rifles were sealed for later use. ”

He originally wanted the district cadres and the village militia company to also be replaced with 38 big covers, but after doing the math, he found that the guns were still not enough. There are more than 1,000 cadres in the 10 district teams alone, and there are 2,000 or 3,000 militiamen in each village, which is almost equivalent to the total strength of nine battalions.

On the issue of troop establishment, there was almost no one in the security regiment who could help Zheng Weiguo share his worries, so he quickly implemented his own plan. was in full swing, and a guest that Zheng Weiguo had been waiting for for a long time finally came to the door.
