Qixia Town.

After Yang Yuanshan got up in the morning, he went to patrol the sentry posts, and after not finding anything abnormal, he called all the cadres under his command to a meeting.

He didn't bother to greet him as before, and directly issued the task straight to the point:

"Comrades, in this battle of Changguang Village, we have suffered nearly 400 casualties, and we need to replenish them in time.

Han Yang, I will leave this matter to you, you must replenish the personnel within one day, and then start to intensify training, and in three days, we have a new combat mission! ”

"Ah, fill up in a day?

Battalion commander, you're embarrassing me!

Where did I get so many people from? ”

Han Yang complained.

"Aren't the engineer company and the logistics company our recruit corps?

Pick it up!

There are 700 people in these two companies, and it is difficult to pick 400 people? ”

Yang Yuanshan is naturally authentic.

Hearing this, Zhao Tietou, commander of the engineer company, and Zhao Li, commander of the logistics company, couldn't help but be very upset.

The soldiers under his command were like flowing water, replenished, and left in a few days.

Zhao Tietou thought that he was Yang Yuanshan's old subordinate, and immediately jumped out and shouted:

"Battalion commander, you're going too far.

It was not easy for me to teach the soldiers to dig anti-artillery holes, and I am learning to clear mines, and I have taken most of the people away. ”

Hearing his complaint, Yang Yuanshan replied casually:

"When you don't have a combat mission, you teach slowly.

The main task of our engineer company is to dig trenches and anti-artillery holes, and we just need to learn these two things.

You are generally not needed for mine clearance or something.

We have a lot of shells, and if we really encounter a minefield, we can just use artillery bombing. ”

Hearing such inhumane words, everyone was speechless.

Zhou Xianpei even wanted to plug Yang Yuanshan's mouth, and said in his heart: Don't be heard by the leaders when you say this!

Otherwise, the leader will have to collect all your shells, and it will be too bad!

Do you know how many comrades in the army are still trying to save a few shells and plug the bullet hole with their lives?

Zhao Tietou was so shocked by Yang Yuanshan's words that he had no choice but to mutter:

"Anyway, our engineer company is raised by the stepmother, or the battalion commander, you can withdraw me as the company commander, and I can go to any company to be a soldier."

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but laugh.

Yang Yuanshan glanced at him and sneered:

"Where are so many strange words?

Have you forgotten the discipline of obeying orders?

Why don't I let you go to the cooking class and carry the cauldron? ”

Hearing this, Zhao Tietou suddenly stopped talking.

……

After beating Zhao Tietou, Yang Yuanshan ordered Wei Dayong again:

"Monk, take a day off today, tomorrow you will take your people to the Shuiquan Coal Mine to reconnoitre, and when I lead the large army to the periphery of the Shuiquan Coal Mine, I want to know all the conditions in the coal mine, understand?"

"I understand.

Battalion commander, I think our special operations company can just set off today, and we don't have to wait for tomorrow. ”

Wei Dayong was eager to try and couldn't wait to set off now.

For this guy's belligerence, Yang Yuanshan was also speechless.

hurriedly said:

"Monk, as a cadre, should always be considerate of the soldiers.

You are strong and not afraid of fatigue.

But the soldiers of the special operations company can't do it, they must be allowed to rest well, and they must not be exhausted.

Do you understand? ”

"Oh, medium! Then we'll set off tomorrow. ”

……

At this time, Zhou Xianpei frowned and asked:

"Battalion commander, the idea of hitting the Shuiquan Coal Mine this time, can this be justified from the regiment commander and brigade commander?

The water spring is not close to us. ”

"It's fine. This time, Regiment Commander Ding invited us to help, and Regiment Commander Ding will report to the brigade headquarters. ”

Yang Yuanshan waved his hand, not caring.

"Battalion commander, you said the same thing last time you helped Regiment Commander Kong fight Shou County. Although the superiors did not criticize us by name, you should understand.

Moreover, the defense area of the new regiment was originally in the vicinity of Yang County, and it was reasonable for them to attack Yang County, and it was impossible for them to fool the higher-level leaders with the idea of crossing Ping'an County to attack the Shuiquan Coal Mine. ”

Zhou Xianpei still didn't want to see Yang Yuanshan removed, and during this period of time with the other party, Yang Yuanshan's ability made him breathtaking and admiring him very much.

In the past few years since he joined the army, he has never seen a battalion commander like Yang Yuanshan who can engage in equipment and develop the team.

In the past, the cadres of the headquarters chatted in private, and they all said that Li Yunlong was the regiment leader who was the most capable of equipment and the most capable of developing the team, but he felt that compared to Yang Yuanshan, Li Yunlong was still far behind!

Regarding Zhou Xianpei's concerns, Yang Yuanshan had thought about it last time when he fooled Kong Jie, but he still decided to fight.

If we don't fight, the troops will not be tempered, the living forces of the little devils will not be wiped out, and precious strategic time will be wasted.

So he smiled at Zhou Xianpei and said:

"Lao Zhou, rest assured. I know it. ”

Seeing him say this, Zhou Xianpei couldn't say anything, so he had to nod.

Since he came out, Yang Yuanshan immediately assigned him a task:

"Old Zhou, although we only took 400 people from the logistics company and the engineer company this time, I think you'd better recruit another 1,000 recruits.

When we go to fight the Shuiquan Coal Mine, it is impossible that there will be no casualties, and when the time comes, you will train the recruits in Qixia Town in advance, and when the team comes back, you will be able to replenish it in time. ”

"Yes! I know.

However, the battalion commander, we have recruited troops around here these times, although the villagers are very enthusiastic, but the young and strong people who meet our recruitment conditions have been almost absorbed, and it may be difficult to recruit another 1,000 people.

Why don't we lower the requirements? For example, the age is a little relaxed? ”

"That's not necessary.

If you are too old and can't keep up with your physical strength, you definitely don't want it, and if you are too young, you are still children, and I can't bear to let them go to the battlefield.

It's not easy to recruit around here, so go to the east or south of the village to recruit.

Our current base area is so large, I don't believe that we can't recruit 1,000 qualified recruits. ”

"Okay, I got it."

……

After arranging Zhou Xianpei, Yang Yuanshan said to Wang Xikui again:

"Kiko, your sharpshooter class, I drew 10 people to the monk a few days ago, and now you have to find someone to fill the establishment.

I suggest you go to the surrounding villages and recruit some hunter-turned-recruits and train them as soon as possible.

Although the number of your team is small, its role on the battlefield is not small, and it must be constantly strengthened.

If I have a chance, I'll get you some sniper rifles back. ”

"Yes! I see. But battalion commander, what is a sniper rifle? ”

Wang Xikui nodded and asked curiously.

Not only him, but other people present were also very interested in this new term in Yang Yuanshan's mouth.

Except, of course, Zhou Xianpei.

He is a man of culture, and of course he knows what a sniper gun is.

Yang Yuanshan didn't know how to explain it, so that these guys who had no culture could understand, and after a little thought, he explained:

"It's a gun equipped with a scope, a longer range, and a gun for sharpshooters.

Like the little devil's Type 97 sniper rifle, although the effective range is usually about 500 meters, in the hands of a clever sniper, the accurate range can reach 600 to 800 meters, and the maximum range of this thing is even 3000 meters! ”

"So powerful? If our class is equipped with this, then the little devil will be miserable! ”

Wang Xikui drooled a little.

Yang Yuanshan waved his hand and said:

"What is this? There are also quite a few better sniper rifles in the world than the Type 97. It's just that we didn't get a chance to see it. ”

Hearing what he said, everyone hurriedly sent rainbow farts:

"Battalion commander, you are so powerful, you know so much!"

Only Zhou Xianpei asked puzzledly:

"Battalion commander, weren't you only 14 years old when you joined the army, how did you know this?

I don't know, I thought you were a military school graduate like the brigade commander! ”

Hearing this, Yang Yuanshan hurriedly snorted and said perfunctorily:

"Hahaha, I forgot who taught me this."

……

After some arrangement, Yang Yuanshan let everyone go to their own places.

He himself went to the health team to visit the seriously wounded in this battle.

In total, there were more than 230 seriously wounded, but on the way back, more than 30 people had not survived and had already died.

Fewer than 200 people are now recuperating in the health team.

After asking Liu Damin, the leader of the health team, about the situation of the wounded, he learned that because of the ample medicine in the special service camp, their injuries were basically under control, so he was relieved.

comforted the wounded to recuperate well, and told Liu Damin that he had any needs, although he went to find the logistics company, and then he transferred to the logistics company himself.

Zhao Li, the logistics company, was leading someone to make pastries, and when he saw him coming, he hurriedly stopped what he was doing and stepped forward to speak.

"Battalion commander, why are you here?"

"Well, let's take a look. How well is the dry food prepared? ”

"Thousands of dough cakes have been made, and it is enough for one soldier to divide them into two, each weighing half a catty."

"Good! We seized hundreds of catties of sugar from Qixia Town a few hundred times ago, I gave you time to try to make a fried mein, did you make it? ”

For "fried noodles", a magical field dry food that will only appear on the battlefield on the peninsula more than ten years later, Yang Yuanshan has of course never forgotten it.

This thing is convenient and hungry, and it is simply too suitable for our army, a team that has been fighting sports warfare for a long time and lacks reliable logistical capabilities.

But he couldn't get candy before, so he didn't have the idea to fight this thing.

He got a batch of sugar in Qixia Town a few days ago, so he asked Zhao Li to take the time to give it a try.

In fact, this thing is essentially a beggar's version of compressed cookies.

If you can get a dough sheeter, you can directly press this thing into compressed biscuits.

"I made it, and after the soldiers tasted it, they all said it was delicious, and now I have made two or three thousand catties of it.

There is no more, and half of our sugar is taken to make sugar water for the wounded. ”

"Well, the needs of the wounded are the most important thing, and they must be given priority.

The ones that are done, let me see. ”

In these years, the special battalion did not have glucose to infuse the wounded at all, and it was considered a replacement to get some sugar water to replenish energy.

Yang Yuanshan understands very well.

Following Zhao Li into a room, Yang Yuanshan saw that it was densely packed with cloth bags.

Zhao Li opened a bag and scooped out half a bowl with a bowl to show him.

I saw that this thing was a pale yellow flour form, and there were many corn kernels, salt grains, sugar grains, sesame seeds, etc., which were not completely ground, and it exuded a rich fragrance.

Grab a handful, feed it to your mouth, and the faint sweetness blooms in your mouth, except for a little dry, the taste is actually not bad.

Although it is still far from the military compressed biscuits he ate before he crossed over, in this era, it is already a good thing.

"Not bad. This thing tastes okay.

This time, we went to the Shuiquan Coal Mine, so we brought these fried noodles to try.

When the time comes, each soldier will bring two dough cakes and 1 catty of fried noodles, and eat them together, which should be good.

In the future, as long as we have the conditions, we can do these hoards, in case the little devils come to sweep up, we can quickly transfer, and we don't need to prepare dry food temporarily. ”

"Yes! Then I'll have to get someone to sew a chow mein bag, it's easy to spill. ”

"Well, you can mobilize the villagers in this Qixia town to help, let's provide cloth, just let the aunts and aunts help, thousands of cloth bags, it should be done soon."

"Good! I know. ”

Zhao Li nodded, and was ready to arrange.

According to Yang Yuanshan's plan, he will set off in three days, and the time is tight.

Yang Yuanshan said:

"Take me to our ammunition warehouse to take a look, this time the fighters have consumed a lot of ammunition, do we still have enough inventory?"

Zhao Li was a little puzzled when he heard this, and said in his heart: The battalion commander didn't care much about the warehouse in the past, what's wrong today? Also asked about ammunition?

Although he was suspicious, he still replied:

"It's quite rich, and it should support us to fight one or two big wars."

While taking Yang Yuanshan to a large courtyard next to him, he pointed to several houses in the courtyard and introduced them one by one:

"Battalion commander, this room is where artillery and shells are stored, here are light and heavy machine guns and grenadiers, and corresponding bullets and shells, and here are rifles and bullets, grenades, ......"

Yang Yuanshan pushed open the door and checked carefully, and saw that there were ammunition boxes densely packed inside.

Basically half is empty and half full.

It can be seen that after fighting two major battles in succession, the Battle of Shouxian and the Battle of Changguang Village, the weapons and equipment of the special service battalion have been consumed a lot.

After checking it casually, Yang Yuanshan immediately said to Zhao Li:

"Go and bring me the ledger from the warehouse! I'm waiting for you here. ”

"Yes!"

Zhao Li did not doubt him, and hurriedly went out to get the account book.

He also thought that the battalion commander was afraid that he would enrich his own pockets, and he was a little apprehensive.

When Yang Yuanshan saw him leaving, he immediately waved his hand and frantically released the shells and bullets in the system warehouse.

Seeing that the ammunition boxes were stacked too high and easy to find out about the anomaly, he immediately filled those empty ammunition boxes - of course, he didn't load the one or two layers of empty ammunition boxes on the surface.

When one room was finished, he moved on to the next......

When Zhao Li came back, he had already returned to his original position and pretended to look through Zhao Li's account book.

Frowning and said:

"Zhao Li, don't you remember this account?

The ledger says that the Type 92 heavy machine gun is running out of bullets, why did I see so many boxes just now? ”

Saying that, Yang Yuanshan walked over and opened a few ammunition boxes, only to see that they were full of 7.7 mm Arisaka bullets.

- This is naturally what Yang Yuanshan just put it.

Zhao Li's eyes widened, and he said suspiciously:

"That's right, I think there are less than 5,000 heavy machine gun bullets left, where did these boxes come from?"

As he spoke, he walked over and opened a few boxes.

I was immediately stunned, only to see that it was full of 7.7mm bullets.

This box after box is indeed significantly different from the less than 5,000 rounds recorded in his account book!

Hiss......

Where did so many bullets come from?

Did it grow out of thin air?

Could it be that when I was keeping accounts, I was dizzy?

Misremembered?

Zhao Li began to doubt life.

Yang Yuanshan was secretly happy in his heart, but he still pretended to comfort him on his face and said:

"It's okay, Zhao Li, you've worked hard during this time, it's okay if you make a mistake.

In this way, after I take the soldiers to the Shuiquan Coal Mine in two days, you will have less to do here, and you will recount the materials in our warehouse. ”

"Yes! Battalion commander! ”

……

After replenishing the ammunition for the special service battalion, Yang Yuanshan said goodbye to Zhao Li, and Shi Shiran walked towards the battalion headquarters.

Only Zhao Li stayed in the warehouse, his face full of question marks.

He carefully inspected the ammunition boxes in the warehouse, only to find that the original batch of empty ammunition boxes did not know when, but there were actually many of them filled with shells and bullets.

It almost made his eyeballs fall out.

He remembers that he had asked each company to put aside the empty boxes after receiving the ammunition.

But now, except for the top batch of boxes that are empty, the bottom boxes are all full.

He couldn't help but scold:

"Which bastard brought Lao Tzu's whole box of ammunition over here?"
