The boss is really here.

And it's already to the 386 brigade headquarters.

"Chen Gen, I congratulate you on making a fortune, hahaha."

With hearty laughter, a burly figure walked into the brigade headquarters.

The brigade commander stumbled at his feet, but when he turned around, he had already become a smile: "Yo, is it the boss?" What wind is blowing you in? ”

"Southeasterly wind."

The boss smiled: "Your southeast wind is really timely." ”

"Because your 386 Brigade has pinned down a large number of Japanese troops in the section from Niangziguan to Yangquan, and has effectively supported the brother troops in other sections, as of this afternoon, we have continuously uprooted nine large strongholds along Zhengtai Road, and now only four large strongholds are still resisting, but it will be sooner or later if they are pulled out."

"Next, we can consider attacking Shouyang and Jingjing."

"When we take Pingshouyang and Jingjing County, the first phase of the war will end smoothly."

What the boss said was not a cliché, the onslaught of the 386 Brigade between Niangziguan and Yangquan not only contained a large number of Japanese troops, but also attracted the 9th Flying Brigade of the Japanese Army, making it impossible for other strongholds along Zhengtai Road to obtain air support, thus effectively supporting the combat operations of several brother brigades.

There are also Tongpu Road and Baijin Line, which are similar.

This is often said to be a move to the enemy, and the whole thing is alive.

On the other hand, the Japanese troops stationed in Shanxi were careless and lost all the games.

"Great." The brigade commander said, "Boss, if there is any task, even if you give an order, in the next battle, whether it is the main attack or the blockade, our 386 Brigade will not have a second word." ”

"I know that you Chen Gen will not let me down."

The boss smiled and said: "But the combat mission is exempted, your 386 Brigade has been fighting for three days and nights in a row, especially in the early hours of this morning to fight Yangquan County, the consumption is very great, and the soldiers must be tired, so then you have a good rest, raise enough physical strength and energy, and have your brigade to fight." ”

"Yes." The brigade commander said, "Make sure to rest well." ”

"One more thing." The boss never played any routines, and directly spoke, "I'm going to build an artillery regiment, but there are still a few cannons, I just saw a lot of cannons on the barn outside the barnyard, and I counted them casually, it seems that there are 12 37mm rapid-fire guns plus 12 92 infantry guns, right?" ”

"Yes." The brigade commander struggled to squeeze out a smiling face, "A total of 24 artillery pieces of various types were captured. ”

Originally, the 4th Brigade also had an artillery team, under the jurisdiction of 1 field artillery squadron and 2 mountain artillery squadrons, a total of 4 75mm field grenades and 8 75mm mountain guns.

If this artillery team was still in Yangquan County, it would be much more difficult to fight.

But this artillery team was also transferred to the Central China battlefield with the Takashima brigade.

So, the 386 brigade captured only 12 92 infantry guns from two wing headquarters,

and 12 37mm rapid-fire guns dismantled from the Type 95 light tank.

"A total of 24 guns? It seems like it's more than that, right? The boss smiled, "I also heard that the Independent Regiment captured an armored train of the Japanese army, and there were 2 105 caliber cannons and 2 75 caliber anti-aircraft guns on board?" ”

"Yes, there are 4 more doors." The brigade commander was about to burst out laughing, "But it hasn't been shipped back yet." ”

"It's okay if it doesn't come back, I'll send someone to pick it up." The boss smiled and said, "I want these 4 guns, as well as the rapid-fire guns and 92 infantry guns outside, give me half more." ”

The boss is too ruthless, and he asked for 16 cannons from the brigade commander at once!

The brigade commander was about to cry, and whispered: "Boss, 16 guns are not enough to form an artillery regiment?" ”

The boss said with a smile: "There are still 2 105 caliber howitzers and 8 infantry guns in the 385 brigade, and the other brigades have also captured 8 infantry guns, plus 16 of your 386 brigades, it's almost the same." ”

An artillery brigade of the Japanese army is generally equipped with 12 barrel guns, which is equivalent to a battalion.

So 34 guns can barely be organized into three artillery battalions, that is, a regiment.

Speaking of this, the boss said again: "By the way, Chen Gen, you don't have any opinions, right?" ”

"What can I say, no opinion, no opinion at all." The brigade commander was bitter to death, but he still had a happy expression on his face.

The boss said again: "You kid said that he had no opinion, but he must be secretly scolding me in his heart, saying that I am not particular about things, whipping fast cattle, and robbing your 386 Brigade with a clear conscience, isn't this wronging you?" ”

"Wronged, this is really wronged me." The brigade commander said, "I definitely don't have that idea. ”

The boss said: "I have wronged you, you know it in your own heart, but you Chen Gen, you must have wronged me, I really didn't rob your 386 Brigade this time." ”

"The truth is exactly what you think."

"I'm robbing other brigades to supplement your 386 brigade."

The brigade commander was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and said: "Boss, I don't understand what you are saying, you obviously transferred 16 guns from our 386 brigade, why did you become a supplement to our brigade?" ”

The boss said: "Do you really think that this artillery regiment was formed for me?" ”

The brigade commander was overjoyed and said: "Boss, you mean that you want to allocate this artillery regiment to our 386 Brigade?" ”

"To be more precise, it is a mobile column assigned to the command of the direct headquarters!" The boss said, "I plan to use your 386 Brigade as the backbone, equip an artillery regiment, and combine it into a mobile column!" ”

"Mobile columns?" The brigade commander was a little surprised, "Is it no longer a military region?" ”

"Yes, your brigade is no longer concurrently serving as the Taihang Military Region." The boss said, "In the past two years, the general policy of our Eighth Route Army has been to divide the army into parts and combine it with local troops to actively expand its strength. ”

"After two years of expansion, the results are also remarkable."

"So I'm thinking about the need to reorganize a mobile corps, no longer limited to guerrilla warfare and sparrow warfare, but to have the courage to carry out a large-scale movement war with the devils."

The current development of the Eighth Route Army is to rely on the localities and take root in the common people.

Let's just say that the four regiments of the 386 Brigade have their own defense areas and their own logistics, and they are basically self-reliant.

That's why Li Yunlong and Cheng Shifa have such a deep grudge against the brigade commander's robbery, and the superiors don't give them support, but they also rob from below, how can they be such a leader?

But the nature of the mobile column that the boss is going to form now is completely different.

This mobile column will no longer concurrently serve as a military region, and there will be no defense zone of its own, and the logistics of the troops will also be unified, and the supply department under the headquarters will be responsible for it; of course, the mobile column will no longer have the autonomy to capture on the battlefield, and once it should be captured, all of it must be unconditionally handed over to the general headquarters for unified deployment.

Such a mobile column will not only improve its mobility, but also greatly enhance its combat effectiveness, and will inevitably become a sharp sword in the hands of the head of the headquarters!

As soon as this sword comes out, it will inevitably hit the Japanese army in Shanxi!

"I see!" The brigade commander said solemnly, "Our 386 Brigade will definitely not disappoint the head of the headquarters!" ”

The boss nodded, and said: "Since your 386 Brigade is going to be reorganized into a mobile column, some of the habits brought from the local troops must be overcome, and the problem of logistics support must also be solved. ”

The habit of the local troops is mainly self-centeredness, and they should have exclusive advantages when there are advantages.

The main problem of logistical support is that there are too many types of weapons and equipment.

If it's still a local force, then there's no problem, anyway, it's just what use, if it's gone, throw it aside, and wait for the next time to capture the bullet from the devil and use it again.

But this cannot be the case if it is adapted into a mobile column.

The ammunition supply of the mobile column must be uniformly distributed.

The boss said: "The problem of logistics support is still easy to solve, it is nothing more than to let all regiments unify their equipment and eliminate the old equipment that cannot be used, but local habits are probably difficult to overcome, especially Li Yunlong, a stinky boy, has more problems on his body than lice on his head, and it is not so easy to change." ”

"Boss, you're right." The brigade commander thought so.

"But don't worry, boss, I'll transform him well."

The boss said: "Well, I am still relieved of you Chen Gen." ”

After a pause, he said: "Take advantage of this time for your brigade headquarters to draw up a reorganization plan as soon as possible, and in terms of weapons and equipment, the appropriate amount and ensuring logistics support should be the first priority. ”

"Understood." The brigade commander said, "We will work it out as soon as possible." ”

"Alright, then I'll go." After the boss finished speaking, he got up and left.

"Eh, boss, don't be in a hurry to go." The brigade commander hurriedly said, "It's almost time for dinner, let's eat before leaving." ”

"If you don't eat it, I won't stay to eat this time." The boss waved his hand and said, "So as not to fall into your routine again and trick me into eating meat and drinking wine." ”

The brigade commander said: "Boss, I didn't say you, what's wrong with eating some meat?" ”

The boss said: "It's not good to eat some meat, who doesn't like to eat meat?" But the problem is that I am used to eating your meat here, and I am not used to eating sweet potatoes and potatoes at the headquarters when I go back, so what should I do? ”

The brigade commander stopped talking, and the boss was high-spirited.

After sending the boss away, the brigade commander called the chief of staff: "Chief of staff, did you hear it just now?" ”

"I hear you." The chief of staff was also beside him just now, nodded and said, "It's a great thing to form a mobile column, and I believe that Li Yunlong and the others will definitely raise their hands in favor." ”

"That's not what I'm talking about." The brigade commander said in a deep voice, "I mean how our brigade should be reorganized. ”

"It's really not easy." The chief of staff said, "If you want to form a mobile column, you must first regularize it, and then the structure and equipment of the subordinate regiments must be unified." ”

"If you have 17 companies in one regiment, 15 companies in one regiment, and 10 companies left, then it will definitely not work, and it must be unified."

"And weapons and equipment, but also as unified as possible."

"Equipment that has only a small amount of ammunition must be eliminated."

"For example, grenadiers, on average, each grenadier is less than a grenade, and it is difficult to capture on the battlefield, so what's the use of keeping these grenadiers? Plain weight on the soldier's burden. ”

"That's right." The brigade commander said, "Then we have to find out the background of our brigade first." ”

The chief of staff said: "Brigade commander, what do you mean, let Li Yunlong and them report their respective family backgrounds?" That's impossible, they will definitely not report it truthfully, at most symbolically, especially Li Yunlong's kid may still cry poor, let our brigade headquarters in turn replenish a little ammunition for their regiment. ”

The brigade commander nodded: "So I have to think of a way." ”

"No way." The chief of staff shook his head like a rattle, "This really can't be done." ”

The brigade commander Mosha raised his chin and said, "If you really can't do it, you can only give the order by force." ”

……

Li Yunlong, Ding Wei, Kong Jie and Cheng Shifa were already sitting together drinking.

This is the old comrade-in-arms, and after the matter is over, he can collude and drink together.

This time, Zhao Gang did not object to Li Yunlong's drinking, and after such a big victory, it would be unreasonable to let Li Yunlong drink a celebration wine again.

Not only Li Yunlong, but the whole group had to drink celebratory wine.

Anyway, there are a lot of Xinghua villages among the seized materials.

However, Zhao Gang still told Li Yunlong not to get drunk, as for whether Li Yunlong would listen to it, I don't know.

"Xiao Wang? Xiao Wang! Li Yunlong shook the empty bottle and shouted outside the house, "Aren't there several boxes of Xinghua Village in the materials seized in Yangquan?" Bring! ”

The figure at the door flashed, and Wang Ye walked in with a box of wine.

"It's full, it's full, it's full for Lao Ding." Li Yunlong said with a smile.

At this time, Li Yunlong had already forgotten about Wang Ye's previous abandonment of him.

Wang Ye opened the wine, poured wine for Ding Wei, Kong Jie, and Cheng Shifa respectively, and then poured it full for Li Yunlong, and then put down the wine bottle to leave, but Li Yunlong stopped him.

Li Yunlong said: "Xiao Wang, don't be in a hurry to leave, sit down and drink together." ”

"I won't drink with a few chiefs." Wang Ye smiled and said, "Lao Zhang, they are waiting for me." ”

"You said Zhang Dabiao? Let him come too, this battle of the 1st battalion is really good, Lao Tzu, I have to give him a bowl of wine. After speaking, Li Yunlong turned his head and shouted, "Zhang Dabiao? Zhang Dabiao! ”

Zhang Dabiao entered in response and wiped his mouth and said, "Commander, is there something?" ”

Li Yunlong smiled and said: "Zhang Dabiao, your 1st battalion fought well in this battle, I respect you." ”

After speaking, Li Yunlong handed his wine bowl to Zhang Dabiao, Zhang Dabiao didn't dislike it, he took it and drank it dry with his neck up, and wiped his mouth unsatisfied.

Wang Ye rolled his eyes when he saw it, and the two big men drank saliva from each other? Evil or not disgusting?

"Sit, Xiao Wang, you sit too." Li Yunlong got up and squeezed to Kong Jie's side, and asked Wang Ye and Zhang Dabiao to sit aside, the Eight Immortals table can seat eight people, and there is no problem at all to sit down for six people.

Zhang Dabiao sat down and said, "Commander, I just heard a message. ”

"Message?" Li Yunlong's heart immediately paused, and asked, "What wind did you kid hear?" ”

After the last breakthrough of Cangyunling, Zhang Dabiao heard the news that the boss was furious and said that he might be dismissed, but he was really removed from his post and assigned to the clothing factory as the director for three months.

Now thinking back on this incident, Li Yunlong still has palpitations.

Zhang Dabiao said: "Don't I have a fellow countryman in the headquarters combat class? ”

Hearing this, not only Li Yunlong, but Kong Jie also pricked up their ears.

Zhang Dabiao said: "My fellow villager also came to our brigade with the boss this time, and just now I was at the entrance of the village to talk about the old days, and accidentally revealed a news about our brigade!" ”

"Our brigade?" Cheng Shifa hurriedly said, "What's the news?" ”

Zhang Dabiao said: "Our 386 Brigade is likely to be reorganized. ”

"Regrouping?" Kong Jie looked confused, "What does this mean?" ”

Cheng Shifa was also at a loss, obviously unable to react.

Li Yunlong and Ding Wei were overjoyed when they heard this, which is a good thing!

The four regiments are said to be regular troops, but in fact they are no different from local troops, each with its own territory, each with its own logistics, and there will rarely be joint action with each other in a war.

Ding Wei said: "This is a good thing, the army will be regularized sooner or later." ”

"That's right, Lao Ding is right." Li Yunlong echoed, "This is indeed a good thing. ”

"Commander, it's not necessarily a good thing." Zhang Dabiao said, "If our 386 Brigade is to be reorganized, it means that the troop structure and weapons and equipment must be unified, how to unify it?" ”

Wang Ye said: "Of course, it is to cut off redundant combat units and eliminate redundant old equipment. ”

"." Li Yunlong jumped up when he heard this, "Our independent regiment has no redundant combat units, no old equipment to be eliminated, and not a single rifle!" ”

The other three regiment commanders bowed their heads and remained silent.

Obviously, they are all thinking about it in their hearts.

Kong Jie probably raised his hands in favor of this.

Because his new second regiment is really not a redundant combat unit, there is a lot of old equipment that needs to be eliminated, but if you want to eliminate the old equipment, you have to replace it with new equipment, and you can't let the soldiers of the new second regiment fight the devils with their bare hands, right?

Otherwise, a regular army that counts as a fart?

Cheng Shifa probably won't have any opinion on this.

Because the 772nd Regiment was originally the formed regiment of the 129th Division, and if the 386th Brigade really wants to be reorganized, most of them will also be reorganized according to the 772nd Regiment as a template, so he is not in a hurry at all.

It is said that Ding Wei should be the most anxious.

Because the new regiment has the largest number of troops and more weapons and equipment.

To carry out reorganization, it is estimated that the new regiment will have to reduce more than one-third of its troops.

Li Yunlong said to Ding Wei: "Lao Ding, we have to find the brigade commander and say, it's okay to reorganize, but it's not okay to cut down combat units and eliminate old equipment, it's not easy for our two regiments to save such a little money." ”

"Lao Li, in fact, it's nothing." Kong Jie said with a smile, "The meat is still in the pot if it is rotten." ”

", Kong Er is stunned, don't speak." Li Yunlong said with a dark face, "Of course, you can't wait to reorganize, just to replenish the combat units cut down by the new first regiment and the independent regiment to your new second regiment, and the eliminated weapons and equipment are also just given to your new second regiment to change clothes, you didn't do anything with your dog's day, but the benefits let you take it all, how can there be such a beautiful thing in the world?" No, no, no, no, this kind of reorganization is absolutely not possible. ”

Kong Jie was not angry, and said with a smile: "Why are you angry with me?" It's not me who let you reorganize, you have the ability to complain to the boss? The boss is now at the brigade headquarters. ”

At this time, Ding Wei suddenly said: "There is no harm in properly streamlining personnel, Lao Li, didn't you find out in this battle that our two regiments are already a little too bloated?" ”
