Chapter 514: Part-time Deputy Chief of Staff (Second Update!) )

The battle ended with the total annihilation of the devils in the ambush circle. X

However, Brigade Commander Chen, who withdrew to the station, was not happy at all.

More than 600 people were killed, more than 300 people were seriously injured, and more than 500 people were slightly injured, such a big price was something that Brigade Commander Chen had never encountered since the Anti-Japanese War, and it was equivalent to the complete scrapping of a regiment.

"If there is any bad news, let's report it together!" Brigade Commander Chen continued to ask with a calm face.

"Captured!" The chief of staff looked very unsightly, and replied with a calm face.

"Because of the large-scale use of artillery and the fact that the fighting lasted for too long, the ammunition brought out by the devils was basically exhausted. Therefore, we basically did not capture too many weapons and ammunition on the battlefield, especially ammunition, and even our losses could not make up for it! ”

Seeing that Brigade Commander Chen's face was getting heavier and heavier, the political commissar on the side comforted him in time: "Brigade Commander, although the losses are very large, there are not many weapons and ammunition captured. However, the ambush and blocking eliminated a total of more than a thousand devils, just judging from the number of enemies destroyed, this is definitely a winning battle! ”

Speaking of this, the political commissar changed his words and continued: "Also, although we did not capture many weapons and ammunition in the battle. However, the headquarters provided us with a large number of weapons and ammunition, including 800,000 bullets of all kinds, 1,000 rifles, and a large number of light and heavy machine guns. Together with the captured equipment, we can immediately equip a reinforced regiment out! ”

A smile finally appeared on Brigade Commander Chen's tense face.

Staring at the commissar, he asked, 'Are you sure that the headquarters really gave us so many weapons and ammunition?' When did the headquarters become so spacious! ’

"I'm sure, I've looked at all these weapons and ammunition, and I guarantee that there are a lot of bullets, and they are all escorted by a battalion of the headquarters guard regiment!"

"Then what are you waiting for, aren't there still two new regiments behind us that are not equipped? Immediately divide the weapons, and draw a company from each of the four main regiments to form a new second regiment, and the shortfall of the four main regiments will be supplemented from the new regiment, and all the weapons that are lacking will be filled! Brigade Commander Chen's tense nerves were completely relaxed, and with a frown, he gave the order to expand the troops.

Then he stared at a few deputies and explained: "The devil has lost so many troops at one time, and he will definitely find a way to retaliate against us." The troops must have enough weapons and ammunition to meet the revenge of the little devils, otherwise we will suffer a big loss just after a big victory! ”

"No problem, tomorrow I will start to form a new second regiment, cadres, recruits, equipment are ready-made. At most, the second regiment will be able to start intensive training in three days. In addition, the recruits of the new regiment have undergone at least three months of recruit training. Now that you get the gun, plus a sufficient number of veterans with them, you should be able to initially form combat effectiveness in half a month! ”

"That's good, if the cadres are not enough, they will be transferred from several main regiments, and which regiment commander is unwilling to let him come to me directly!"

"The Japanese army swept us with heavy troops, and the more troops in our hands, the more confident the next counter-sweep will be!"

At this time, the political commissar suddenly thought of something, and then added: "Brigade commander, there are still two troops, don't forget, the first battalion of the headquarters guard regiment is a reinforced battalion, nearly seven hundred people, strong combat effectiveness, if used well, it can be worth a regiment!" ”

"I mean, send all the remaining recruits of the two recruit regiments to the first battalion, mix with the first battalion, and form a new third regiment!"

"Don't rush yet!" This time, Brigade Commander Chen refused.

"Although it is good to expand the army, you must have fist troops in your hands. The four regiments in our hands plus the new regiment have a lot of recruits, and the combat effectiveness is definitely not as good as at the beginning. This battalion will be our fist force from now on, sent to the battlefield at a critical moment, and will deliver a deadly attack to the enemy! ”

"By the way, what about the special combat team directly under the headquarters, they can win this battle, their role cannot be underestimated, I will take a look at this group of heroes now!"

Seeing Brigade Commander Chen walking directly outside the headquarters, the political commissar and chief of staff hurriedly followed.

In particular, the chief of staff, as if he had found a treasure, was very excited to introduce: "Brigade commander, the combat effectiveness of these people is really not ordinarily strong. I listened to the reports of the cadres and fighters below that nearly 150 of the last 300 devils in the encirclement died in their hands, and more than 50 of them were directly headshots from 50 meters away, and these headshots were basically devil machine gunners and so-called special forces! ”

"Also, the equipment of these men is good, two guns, a rifle or a submachine gun, plus a twenty-round Mauser pistol."

"Needless to say, 300 bullets plus three grenades."

"The squad of more than 50 people is equipped with three Type 96 light machine guns and three 60 mm mortars!"

"Such an elite team, if it can stay, it can definitely be used as the killer weapon of our 386 Brigade!"

The more Brigade Commander Chen listened, the more excited he became, but he didn't lose his mind, and interrupted without hesitation: "Chief of Staff, don't think about it, this is a special combat team directly under the headquarters, and the idea has hit the boss." It's impossible to keep them behind, but we can let them train us here for the same special combat team! ”

"Report to the chief, the special combat team was ordered to come for reinforcements, please instruct, the captain of the special combat team Wang Ping ......" As soon as Brigade Commander Chen entered, Wang Ping rushed to the door and reported.

"Wang Ping? I remember, you are the original head of the independent regiment of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, and later the director of the arsenal, and now the captain of the special combat team. Brigade Commander Chen was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted, stared at Wang Ping and asked.

Wang Ping became embarrassed instead, and the other cadres were all rising higher and higher, but only himself, not only did not rise, but fell again and again.

Brigade Commander Chen saw what Wang Ping was thinking at a glance, and said with a twist: "Captain Wang, I'm here to thank your special combat team!" ”

"If it weren't for the special operations team joining the battle in time, I don't know what accidents would have happened in yesterday's ambush battle!"

"Chief, this is what we should do. The fundamental reason why the headquarters set up a special combat team is to deal with the devil special forces. Now that the devil's special forces are hiding in the ambush force, it makes sense that our special forces should all participate in the battle. ”

"In addition, according to the order of the headquarters, from now until the end of the battle, the special combat team will listen to the command of the chief, please don't take it into account when the chief gives the order, the more dangerous the task, the more our special combat team likes it!"

"That's what I want from you!" Brigade Commander Chen replied with satisfaction.

Then he ordered: "From now on, the special operations team will follow the command headquarters." In addition, Captain Wang, you stay at the headquarters when you have no tasks, and give me a period of time as the deputy chief of staff, I know your ability. If it weren't for something, I would have been a brigade commander like me! ”

"In addition, there is one more thing, in this ambush of devils, we captured a lot of equipment of the devil's special forces. I myself want to form a special combat team, just one platoon. ”

"Captain Wang, you have experience in forming a special combat team, I want you to help, personnel, cadres, all you choose. There are four main regiments in total, and whoever you choose is yours. ”

"Captain Wang, if you are here for a day, the special combat team will train with you for a day and carry out tasks with you."

Promoting the special operations method throughout the Eighth Route Army was something Wang Ping had wanted to do for a long time, so in the face of Brigade Commander Chen's order, Wang Ping agreed without thinking about it.

So, in the next month or two, Wang Ping was not only the captain of the two special combat teams, but also the part-time deputy chief of staff of the 386 Brigade!
