Chapter 336 Shocked Ding Wei
Chapter 336 Shocked Ding Wei
Now the new regiment has been fully organized under the preparation of two militia captains.
First of all, they all have the new uniforms of the Eighth Route Army. Once the patches on the uniforms are removed, they look like an elite force no matter how you look at them.
Just by wearing this brand new Eighth Route Army uniform, they were able to defeat his 28th Regiment.
Thinking about how I followed Zhao Bidada to fight the Japanese in central Hebei a few years ago.
He was not hindered by the need for guns and ammunition, but he was always short of uniforms.
There are many new soldiers who will secretly find their squad leaders before going to the battlefield.
"Squad leader, I am not afraid of death. If I really die, can you let me wear the uniform of our Eighth Route Army?"
Now the new clothing group I lead looks like a new son-in-law. I like them no matter how I look at them.
Although the number of people is a little small, there are only about 1,600 people.
That is several times more than the 400 people I had expected.
You have to know that the newly formed regiments at that time were all core regiments of five or six hundred people.
Any regiment with more than 1,200 people is the main force of each military sub-district and is very precious.
A new regiment can have 1,600 people. It seems that the boss still loves him very much and has no intention of fooling him.
The two militia captains set up the organization of the new regiment.
They integrated the militia battalion into two infantry battalions of 500 people and one third battalion of 100 people.
Each infantry battalion is composed of a semi-automatic rifle company and two Japanese-equipped companies.
Apart from the regimental headquarters, the rest were a search and reconnaissance company, a cavalry company, and a heavy vehicle company.
Of course, there is also an artillery battery...
Ding Wei touched two Type 92 infantry guns and looked at the mortars and grenade launchers on the ground.
And the boxes of bullets and shells in the ammunition depot made him even more furious.
"Mine, mine, it's all mine." A voice sounded in Ding Wei's mind.
In the past, no one had much wealth, so this idea was just a joke.
That is Li Yunlong, the stingy guy who is always stingy.
I wish my superiors would separate the males and females when distributing bullets.
The male bullets belonged to Li Yunlong, and the female bullets were shared by others.
Looking at so many good things in the ammunition depot, Ding Wei also felt very inflated.
I was wondering whether I should also attack Taiyuan City?
At this time, Ding Wei had long forgotten about Comrade Zhao Bidada who was still in Hebei Province.
Alas, the current firepower density of the New 28st Regiment is much stronger than that of his two th Regiments.
Comrade Ding Wei is so excited now!
However, Ding Wei also had a question: "Why don't you just organize those more than 100 people into a company?
Even if we have three battalions, they won’t be of much use in a war.”
The two captains (now battalion commanders) took him to another ammunition warehouse.
"Commander, look."
When Captain Ding Wei took a look, he saw that the box that had just been opened was filled with good guns.
A small number of brand new Garand semi-automatic rifles, as well as the Japanese Type 38 rifles.
The militia captain pointed at the submachine guns and Mauser pistols in the box.
Said: "These are prepared for your guard platoon."
He added: “Captain, the current Third Battalion is composed of officers above the rank of deputy squad leader.
We thought that our new regiment would always need to recruit new soldiers.
Let's build a third battalion first, and when the new soldiers arrive, we can form an army directly."
Ding Wei: There is a future for them. It seems that these two militia captains have some ideas.
Therefore, Ding Wei, who had temporarily strengthened his army, immediately threw himself into the large-scale military training of the new regiment.
It was only through this training that he realized the true strength of this new regiment.
These soldiers in the new regiment used live ammunition when practicing shooting, five rounds a day!
The soldiers of the New 1st Regiment also explained that they were aware of the current logistical difficulties, so they only fired five rounds of bullets a day.
It was still fun when I was in Fengu County. My hands would itch if I didn’t shoot ten bullets a day.
Ding Wei: Boy, I will remember you. Now let me tell you the truth. My hands are itching right now.
With increased strength, one will naturally become bolder.
This is also the reason why Ding Wei had the confidence to lead a battalion to support Kong Jie in the middle of the night.
Kong Jie here had just been praised, and Li Yunlong over there came to show his courtesy again.
"Reporting to the commander, the commander of the new 1st Brigade of the Taiyue Military Region, Li Yunlong, has sent a telegram.
He said that in order to avenge the deputy commander, he was going to lead a new brigade to attack Taiyuan.
Deputy Commander: "Bullshit, I'm not dead yet, do I need Li Yunlong to avenge me?
Send a telegram back to Li Yunlong, asking him to obey the brigade commander in everything.
Still want to attack Taiyuan? Let him not do anything stupid."
The division commander said: "This Li Yunlong has been clamoring to attack Taiyuan every day. Isn't this just an excuse for him?
I estimate that if you don't reply to this telegram, he will arrive at Taiyuan tomorrow."
The deputy commander-in-chief said: "This Li Yunlong is really a cause for concern.
"Well, Commander, listen, the gunfire and explosions outside, why did they stop?"
At this time, the guard company commander also came in to report to them.
"Commander, the gunfire outside seemed to last for about a minute."
"What? Just one minute?"
The deputy commander-in-chief and the division commander looked at each other. What was going on?
Was the war over? Or did the Japanese defeat Kong Jie? This was even more impossible.
The two leaders had already calculated that the Japanese could get through the gaps between the numerous garrison troops.
The number of people cannot be too large, at most there are only about a hundred or so.
The current independent regiment is a large group of more than 1,600 people.
How is it possible that we can’t defeat a hundred or so Japanese devils?
Deputy Commander-in-Chief: "Please connect me to the Independent Regiment. I want to ask Kong Jie what the hell is going on there?"
The operations staff's call to the independent regiment was quickly connected, and the person who answered the call was Chief of Staff Shen Quan.
Shen Quan heard that it was the boss looking for Kong Jie to ask about the gunfire sounds on their side.
He also told Shen Quan that a small group of Japanese troops were planning to launch a surprise attack on the headquarters, and the leader asked them to be careful.
"Commander, the person who answered the phone was Chief of Staff Shen Quan. He said that a group of Japanese soldiers climbed up from the bottom of the Yangcun cliff.
Fortunately, they had made sufficient preparations during the day, and the Japanese devils must have escaped.
Their captain Kong Jie is now personally commanding the troops at the cliff.
Chief of Staff Shen has sent someone to call him. When Commander Kong returns, he will report to you immediately."
Sure enough, in less than ten minutes, Kong Jie called.
"Commander, I am Kong Jie, the leader of the independent regiment, and I have something important to report to you.
During the day today, at the reminder of Commander Xiao Song, we conducted a large-scale military exercise to defend against sneak attacks at Houya.
Unexpectedly, just in the early hours of this morning, a standard squad of Japanese soldiers actually climbed up from the cliff of Yangcun.
They used flying claws to hook onto the top of the cliff and climbed up.
Unfortunately, we had already laid mines on the flat ground at the top of the mountain.
When the Japanese were approaching our trenches, we detonated the mines.
With the help of cross-fire from heavy machine guns, all the Japanese on the top of the cliff were wiped out in less than a minute.
In order to eliminate the Japanese devils below the cliff, our two mortars fired twenty shells each.
Finally, the group of Japanese soldiers who came to attack at night were forced to flee back along the same route. "
