Chapter Seventy-Five: Planning

"One-two-one!"

"Left, right, left!"

Chen Yu ran on the right side of the queue and shouted slogans loudly. Ah Yi led the team at the front of the queue, more than 500 heavily armed soldiers ran along the streets of Chanda, Chen Yu shouted in the back, smashed the buttocks of the soldiers running behind with the butt of his gun, and even the dog meat was barking wildly to help organize the formation.

"Look at your appearance, let the common people of Chanda see it and think it is a group of bandits, they all run to stand up for me and keep up with the queue!" Chen Yu roared hard.

A battalion of soldiers, heavily armed, marched through the streets of Chanda, and the people on the roads and the routs who had nowhere to go gave way to the way. The people of Chanda watched the team with curiosity, and the routs who had nowhere else to go looked at the army with their eyes, hoping to join in.

The early morning in southern Yunnan is as humid as ever and foggy.

Leading this group of people to run along the stone road, Chen Yu is to let everyone see it, let Yu Xiaoqing see, we are not a rout army like a people and bandits, but an elite army that has been in war for a long time.

Walking out of Zenda, the queue could barely see clearly.

Chen Yu wants to train them, and the biggest difference between us and the Japanese army is not only the difference in weapons, but also in training. The weapons gap is not something that can be bridged in a moment, but tactical training does not require those heavy weapons.

Without adequate training, even if they are given advanced weapons, what is the difference between that and those young master soldiers in the Middle East?

The gap cannot be bridged by weapons, and it is not that a few more heavy machine guns and a few cannons can defeat the Japanese army. The gap is our training with the Japanese army, almost all of whom have gone through long-term training and then put into battle, and we are only peasants who are still digging the ground with hoes the day before yesterday and fighting with old guns the day after tomorrow.

Found a vacant space on the outskirts of Chanda, all the people stopped marching, everyone was panting, complaining about why Chen Yu didn't eat early in the morning and went out to exercise, because Chen Yu didn't dare to speak out.

When they arrived at their destination, everyone sat down on the ground, regardless of the dew drops caused by the weeds on the ground.

Chen Yu carried a gun and pulled them up one by one: "Stand up and line up for me, line up!" Any idea what a queue is?

All the people stood up for me, and you thought that after crossing the river, it would be okay if the Japanese couldn't catch up? If the Japanese come over, what are you doing, what if Shangfeng asks us to cross the river to fight the Japanese? Waiting to die? โ€

After a burst of whipping, more than 500 people stood up impatiently and stood in a procrastinating line.

More than 500 people formed a phalanx, and Chen Yu and A Yi stood at the front of the phalanx, and the two of them whispered.

Ah Yi was eager to know what he should do as a regiment commander, he now knew what a supervisor was, and a supervisor was probably more dangerous and powerful than a supervisor. The regiment commander is older than the battalion, when he was the battalion commander, he always led the troops to defeat the battle, and now he is the regiment commander, Ah Yi is afraid of losing more battles and sending more brothers to die.

"What do we do now?"

"Morning!" Chen Yu replied.

Ah Yi said with a sad face: "I mean what should the head of the regiment do, I am the head of the regiment now, there should always be a head of the regiment, right?" โ€

"I don't care about this, let's say okay. I'll take care of the war, you can take care of the logistics, and now that I'm not fighting, I'm still helping to take care of the logistics, you can't let me take care of everything, the people below are going to say that I have seized power. โ€

"Then what order should I give now?"

Chen Yu thought for a while and said, "What did you do in the officer training corps before, is what you do every day?" โ€

"Recite the code and the slogan." Ah Yi said with a blushing face.

"Then let them practice military steps, turn left and right, walk forward, and so on. Practice for an hour, then run back to camp for breakfast. โ€

"Just an hour?"

Chen Yu nodded: "One hour is enough, after breakfast, continue to train here, and continue to practice in the queue." Don't tell me, you can't get a queue to practice, take out the momentum of the regiment commander, and whoever is disobedient will take the butt of the gun and smoke the ass. โ€

"I'm the head of the regiment." Ah Yi said again and again, self-affirming.

"You are the head of the regiment, you are the head of the regiment when you die, you are the head of the regiment!"

Ah Yi said with a bitter face: "I, the head of the regiment, am chasing ducks to the shelves, and I can't be the head of the regiment." โ€

"Then you'd better go home and raise flowers!" Chen Yu said in a taunt.

"I~~~" Ah Yi plucked up his courage and said, "I'm the head of the regiment!" โ€

ยทยทยทยทยทยท

For more than ten days, we came and ran every day, and every day we came to this open field to practice platoon, to practice military steps, to practice stabbing and to practice all the means needed for battle, except for shooting, because we didn't have so much ammunition for training.

Ah Yi was rusty at the beginning, and then slowly became familiar with it, and then began to show the momentum of the regiment commander and move against the lone soldiers. Ah Yi is also very civilized, he never uses the butt of a gun to smash a soldier's butt, only pulls a lone soldier to encourage him to continue training.

The training is handled by Ah Yi, who is now the head of the regiment and should do something like this.

Chen Yu trained with them during the day, teaching them how to effectively evade artillery fire on the battlefield, how to observe the opponent's offensive firepower, and effectively block and fight. Teach them how to clean their guns and how to maintain them.

At night, Chen Yu had to set up the stall with A Yi. Dividing the 500 people into three battalions, as well as the transport platoon, the guard platoon, the cooking squad and many other things, and selecting the commanders of each battalion, company, and platoon, these are all grassroots organizational structures, which need to be repeatedly discussed and determined by Chen Yu and A Yi.

Under the cover of night.

Chen Yu and A Yi stayed up all night to set down the commanders of the battalions, companies, and platoons, and waited for the supplementary soldiers sent by Yu Xiaoqing to arrive. Ah Yi went to Yu Xiaoqing, and Yu Xiaoqing also promised to replenish us with enough personnel and equipment for a regiment, and he promised to return to the promise, as for the quality, I don't know.

"First of all, I am also the commander of a battalion, and Ah Yi will be your commander. There are more than one battalion of veterans, so that you can take care of it, but you must be careful not to let him complicit. This group of veterans is a thief, but they are good at fighting.

I came to see the recruits from the second battalion. The rest of the old brothers are all officials, but they must not let Kang Ya and the snake ass, and a few veteran oils squat in a battalion, this group of guys will have something to do sooner or later, and they are too lazy to die, and they can't smash them with the butts of their guns. โ€

Ah Yi looked at the list on the roster and nodded: "That's it, I think it's good like this." I'll tell them tomorrow that everyone will be promoted together and sent together... Ahem, ahem, fight the Japanese together. โ€

Chen Yu rolled his eyes: "I thought you were going to say that you would get rich together, and if you dare to say a word to get rich, I will sink you into the river tonight, bullshit leader." โ€

"Dead fish, we have a regiment, a whole regiment of people!" Ah Yi looked at the roster and said excitedly.

"It is estimated that there is no regiment, and Dingtian Yu Xiaoqing will give us a battalion of personnel, which is why I planned two battalions. Two infantry battalions, plus a mortar company, are enough. โ€

"Good, good."

In Chen Yu's plan, the Sichuan Army had two infantry battalions, plus a mortar company. There are many veterans in the first battalion, and it is the main force to let the guy who is annoyed all day long do some personnel. The second battalion has a lot of supplementary soldiers, as a reserve battalion, but it has to ensure that the chain does not fall at critical moments. Mortar company, that realm Luo Jinlong is the master.

The artilleryman that Chen Yu picked up from the airport was with his own mortar all day long, and even Ah Yi, the regiment commander, was not bird. But Chen Yu and Ah Yi couldn't do anything about him, who made him a technical soldier, as for the other artillery Krupp, he had been absorbed by Luo Jinlong with two 60mm mortars.
