Chapter 46, Expanded Part I

Xia Xinsheng sat in the meeting hall in a daze, whether it was the commendation order for the Huize army or any other order, he didn't listen to a word, his mind was full of comrades lying on the ground, and his mind was full of those young faces. Seeing Xia Xinsheng like this www.biquge.info Luo Binghui and Chen Geng quickly made arrangements for the other troops, and asked everyone to disperse to carry out various tasks.

Luo and Chen stayed behind and didn't speak, just quietly looking at Xia Xinsheng. They have experienced such things, and they have also felt such feelings. It's just that I got used to it under more yin and yang separation and the passage of time, and I went all the way from Jiangxi, crossed the Xiangjiang River, and turned to Zunyi. There are so many sacrifices that you have to get used to it. After sighing for a while, Chen Geng's expression became serious, slapped the table with all his might, and shouted: "Xia Xinsheng!" “

Xia Xinsheng raised his head and looked at Chen Geng blankly.

Chen Geng stood up and said angrily: "Lao Tzu knows that your teaching battalion has suffered heavy casualties this time, and you feel uncomfortable, but Lao Tzu doesn't care about this. Lao Tzu doesn't have that much time for you to be here for a sad autumn! chirping! In a word, are you crying here for your more than 300 dead brothers, or are you following Lao Tzu to fight the more than 10,000 Guizhou troops that are about to arrive? You take a good look at the appointments given to you by the Central Committee and the poems written by the Chairman to you, are you worthy of the Central Committee? Isn't that worthy of the chairman? “

After Chen Geng finished speaking, he slapped the telegram on the table, and looked at Xia Xinsheng angrily on the side.

Luo Binghui took over and said: "New comrades, comrades who have already died, we have no choice. However, as you said before the station, we are in a very dangerous situation to block the enemy's forces.

As you know, we haven't changed the entire battlefield situation now because of a small victory. This requires each and every one of us to pick up our hearts and minds and devote ourselves to the next battle. The best explanation for the sacrificed comrades-in-arms is the completion of the unfinished mission. “

Xia Xinsheng instantly burst into tears when he heard this, he wiped his tears, gritted his teeth and stood up and read the telegram seriously, saluted Luo and Chen, and said, "I'm going to prepare for the expansion of the teaching camp." Please rest assured, we can still play the main attack! “

Luo Binghui patted Xia Xinsheng's shoulder and said: "Considering that the training battalion has suffered a lot of losses and is about to face such a large-scale expansion, the former enemy headquarters has discussed with the regiments, and the cavalry company soldiers who were temporarily mobilized before will belong to your sixty-first regiment and do not need to be rebuilt." The 200 men supported by the central column will arrive by tomorrow morning at the latest, and you must take this into account when you expand your formation.

This time your battalion fought well and tenacious. I hope you will be able to bring this fine work to the entire 61st Regiment. It is a very great challenge for you to expand from more than 500 to 2,000 people, and the liberation fighters will be three times as many as the old Red Army soldiers.

However, there will be a big war to be fought soon, and we don't have much time left for you to rectify, but the combat strength still has to be guaranteed, and the burden on your shoulders is very heavy! I don't know if you have any specific ideas, or if you have any difficulties that you can put forward, the former enemy command will do its best to solve them for you? Come, sit down and speak! ”

Xia Xinsheng sat down, tapped his fingers on the table and thought for a while, and said, "I thought about it for a while, judging from the current situation, the direct company of the training battalion, the cavalry company can be retained. There should be a lot of signal soldiers, scouts or something in this captive, and their riding skills should be good, and they can be absorbed into the cavalry company.

Some of the establishments need to be expanded, such as the engineering group and the artillery group, and so on, but in my opinion, they should all be maintained at the company level. Artillery and sappers can also be dealt with in the same way, and the command will not be reduced in terms of combat power. As for the machine gun or something, it's also easy to deal with. These companies are directly subordinate to the regimental headquarters, and there is no limit on the number of specific people.

For the formation of infantry battalions, I think three infantry companies plus one company are the most appropriate size for each type of direct force. There are still 138 people in each company, and the cadres who are promoted in this way will get started faster. ”

Luo Binghui asked, "How are you going to arrange the 200 people who came from the central government?" ”

Xia Xinsheng said: "I still ask for priority in the promotion of military cadres from the training battalion, the three-three system tactics pay the most attention to coordination, and other teams must have also been trained, but I have no confidence in the degree of attention. ”

Chen Geng said: "Among the 200 people, we still have to choose some, and one is not detrimental to unity." ”

Xia Xinsheng nodded in agreement and said, "The choice must be chosen, let's take a look at their tactical literacy first." ”

Xia Xinsheng's attention was completely shifted to how to do a good job in the expansion of the sixty-first regiment, and he broke away from the emotions of the sacrifice of his comrades-in-arms, rolled his eyes twice, looked at the two leaders with a distressed expression on his face, and sighed a few times with an aggravated breath.

Seeing that the attention of the leaders had been attracted, Xia Xinsheng peeked at Chen Geng with a resentful expression and said, "Alas...... There were mainly three infantry battalions, which had many difficulties and a serious shortage of various technical arms. More importantly, I lack cadres here, I only have one company commander left, and there is no instructor left. But I lack three battalions of cadres here! The company level can make do, and the battalion level is a hurdle...... I can't make do with it! ”

Who is General Chen? That's the top person who has been beaten for so many years in Shiliyangchang, and if Xia Xinsheng wants to take people into the pit in two clicks, the name of "Huangpu Sanjie" will be called in vain. looked at Xia Xinsheng with a playful face, and looked at him without making any unnecessary movements. Luo Binghui's great interest can be worthy of Xia Xinsheng, and worthy of Chen Geng. The three of them just stared at each other with big eyes.

Xia Xinsheng struggled to hold on for a while, but he couldn't bear it anymore, he opened his mouth and said tentatively: "If it really doesn't work, I, Su Jin and He Dongsheng, one person with a battalion to support it!" If you practice more, maybe your combat power will come back? ”

Chen Geng nodded meaningfully in agreement: "That's the only way to do it, but the combat effectiveness must come up, this is a dead order, there is no need to change it, hurry up and practice, practice as soon as possible!" “

Chen Geng didn't play his cards according to the routine, so Xia Xinsheng was stuck there, and he didn't know how to continue the topic for a while.

Luo Binghui looked at Xia Xinsheng's uncomfortable face, laughed and said, "Yes, yes, yes!" We must seize the time, because we may have a combat mission in just one or two days. “

Xia Xinsheng came back to his senses and knew that his careful thoughts had been seen through, so he got up and made a fuss.

Chen Geng said with a look of contempt: "We have entered Kunming with explosives tied, and now we have annihilated Wu Qiwei's column with our teeth. It's not bad in terms of affection, can you finish the twists and turns with Lao Tzu? I'll ask the Central Committee for instructions and give you a few cadres! Are you still afraid that Lao Tzu will not be able to do anything if he thinks about you? ”

Xia Xinsheng hurriedly said: "How can it, how can I have so much belongings for you to worry about?" Hey...... I know it's still the old leader, this is really a strong grass, and if you don't have a general, you will find the old leader! Who are we, Commander Chen? That's the ability to run a horse on his arm and a boat in his belly......" complained in his heart, feeling that you haven't seen the bright sword.

"Hurry up and stop Lao Tzu! If you hadn't reminded me, Lao Tzu would have almost forgotten that you said that Lao Tzu could open a flowing water mat on his tongue. I said that you are a freshman in Xia, and when I first met you, you looked like a dog, and you were very polite. It's only been a few days and you've been looking like an old oilman, should I praise you for hiding quite deeply or becoming fast enough? Shouldn't you have changed your face after learning Sichuan opera?" Chen Geng said.

"Hey...... The key is to lead wisely...... Hey! Xia Xinsheng was born, but his heart was nonsense.

………………

Luo Binghui promptly pulled back the topic that was getting more and more deviated and said: "Okay, okay, okay!" It's almost there, we don't have enough time! Otherwise, if the army comes, you will have to rely on the dragon gate formation to stop the enemy. “

Xia Xinsheng suppressed his emotions in time and said, "Then I'll go back now and start preparing to set up the troop as soon as possible." Just gear? “

Luo Binghui said: "Give priority to your equipment, and half of the heavy machine guns and guns will be given to you." “

Xia Xinsheng thought for a while and said, "Can that heavy machine gun be replaced with a light machine gun?" “

Chen Geng said: "Figure it out yourself, who do you want, cadres?" “

"Cadre, just look at it, it's best to be the ones who are the least happy." Xia Xinsheng nodded and replied as he went out to the teaching camp and escaped from the First Emperor's Army.

Xia Xinsheng rushed to the training camp and summoned the cadres of the training camp to sit down, and Su Jin rushed to the camp with a group of liberation fighters. In the open space, there were more than thirty columns of twenty people in a row. It is estimated that there are more than 700 people. On one side of the queue was a pile of supplies, which made the soldiers of the teaching battalion look hot for a while.

Su Jin came over with the roster and handed it to Xia Xinsheng and said, "These are all selected from the first batch of liberation fighters. The quality is not bad, most of them have participated in preliminary military training, many of them are from the old garrison regiment for many years, there are also many from the Central Army, and a few are Fengjun who escaped from the northeast in 918. “

Xia Xinsheng looked at the team, although the liberation fighters looked tired, their mental state was still not bad, and their morale was also very high, and they asked, "What about the technical arms?" How many artillery, machine gunners, etc.? And cavalry, sappers, medics, and so on. ”

Su Jin said: "There are some, there are a small two hundred people in total, I am going to come over, I heard that we are going to expand the organization, the command has said hello, and the liberation fighters and the capture are given priority to us." Of the first batch of 983 liberation fighters, we selected 746. I didn't let go of any of the technical troops, and there were dozens of captives who had not been transformed for the time being, and I also brought them, for fear that the night would be long and dreamy, so I would hold it in my hands first. I put the fighters on guard over there, and as soon as a new liberation fighter converts, he will notify us. ”

Xia Xinsheng turned his head and shouted: "He Dongsheng, Zhao Zhangcheng, Liu Mengzi, Liu Kuwa, Mongolian doctor, Zhang Blacksmith, Chen Yisco came over for a meeting." In addition, all the squad and platoon leaders organized a good lecture on the history of our training battalion to the new comrades, so that the family would know what kind of unit they were going to join! ”
