Chapter 72 The position of the platoon leader, the life of the regiment leader
"What mobilizes troops out to carry out military operations without authorization?"
Li Yunlong's face darkened and asked, "Political Commissar Zhao, I said, how did you become a political commissar? You are incompetent."
"Since I came to work in my new 1st regiment, why didn't I investigate the situation of my new 1st regiment before taking office? You are not careful in your work!"
Zhao Gang was stunned: "Captain Li, what do you mean?"
Li Yunlong smiled sly and said, "I did not ask for instructions, so I let my troops go out to perform military missions. However, this was approved by the head office boss."
Zhao Gang: "This is impossible!"
Li Yunlong: "What's impossible? It's rare and strange. Do you know why I disobeyed military orders in the Battle of Cangyunling, but was not removed from the position of commander of the new regiment?"
Zhao Gang subconsciously asked, "Why?"
Li Yunlong said proudly: "Because I led the new first regiment to win the battle, I not only killed the Japanese corps captain, but also seized the Japanese corps flag!"
"My merit is merit, and fault is merit. As far as I know, our Eighth Route Army will not punish the mistakes you made just because you have made merit."
Zhao Gang is an old party member with a very experienced experience, and obviously doesn't believe Li Yunlong's words.
Li Yunlong: "If I only make these contributions, of course I will not be exempted from my punishment by the head of the headquarters."
"In the battle of Cangyunling, although our new first regiment won the victory, the casualties of the troops were also very serious, and the establishment was almost destroyed."
"So, I issued a military order to the boss, and within three months I developed the new regiment into a reinforced regiment with 5,000 troops like the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army.
At the same time, during these three months, no reports are required for any actions of the New Orlean Group, and no spoils are required for surrender."
Zhao Gang was shocked: "What? In three months, the new regiment that was destroyed will be developed into a reinforced regiment with 5,000 troops?"
"How is this possible? Even if you can recruit so many soldiers, the problems of weapons, equipment and food cannot be solved, right?"
Although Zhao Gang knew that Li Yunlong was a little expert in developing the troops, he did not think that Li Yunlong could develop his troops into a strengthening regiment with a force of more than 5,000 people within three months.
If he really had this ability, the Independent Group would not have had more than 1,000 people at Cangyunling.
Especially weapons and food have always been the most troublesome problems of the Eighth Route Army.
Li Yunlong looked like a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water: "What can I do? Who made me disobey my life on the battlefield? If I don't be cruel to myself and make such a difficult military order, I have to go to the clothing factory to be the 'women'."
"Now, at least three months have been bought. Even if the task cannot be completed, at most, continue to go to the clothing factory. Can't the boss shoot us, right?"
After pausing, Li Yunlong changed his voice and continued, "But that's fine. We can't pee in the same pot anyway, so you can change your partner."
Zhao Gang ignored Li Yunlong's ridicule of him. He was silent for a moment and asked, "How long has it been since you issued a military order?"
Li Yunlong: "It's almost a month and a few days."
Zhao Gang: "How did the troops develop?"
Li Yunlong: "When the troops are developing scattered, all actions do not need to be reported to me, so we don't know about this.
However, it has been a while since I arranged for the communications officer to conduct a survey, and I guess the results will be known tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."
Although Li Yunlong did not know the development of each battalion and company, he knew the approximate location of each battalion and company.
After all, in case of an emergency, it is impossible to gather troops urgently and not find anyone.
Although more than a month has passed and there is still some time before three months, Li Yunlong was nervous. To be honest, he had no idea how to develop the new group that was crippled into a 5,000-person strengthening group within three months.
I just listened to Wang Chengzhu’s advice when I first heard that I was just a dead horse.
Therefore, Li Yunlong arranged for correspondents to go out to contact the various battalions and companies that were developed in a dispersed manner.
Zhao Gang nodded and said, "Then let's take a look at the development of each battalion and company."
...
Wangjia Village.
Today, Wang Chengzhu's troops have developed more than 1,200 people.
Although Wang Chengzhu is still only a platoon leader, he has actually lived the life of a group leader, and his life is even more comfortable than that of an ordinary group leader.
The general regiment-level combat units are three infantry battalions, plus several regiment-level units, such as guard platoons, communication squads, spy companies, etc.
But in addition to infantry, Wang Chengzhu's "regiment" also has its own cavalry, artillery, and even special operations forces.
Moreover, the equipment of each unit is also very well-equipped.
Take artillery as an example. Although Wang Chengzhu's army had only one artillery squad in name, the artillery fire power it possessed was definitely comparable to an artillery battalion.
There are 4 Type 92 infantry cannons, more than 10 Type 97 light mortars, and in addition, there are several 60mm caliber mortars.
Other Eighth Route Army, not to mention the Type 97 light mortar and Type 92 infantry cannon, can have two 60mm caliber mortars, which is considered to have good firepower.
For example, the new regiment during the Cangyunling period had only a 60mm caliber mortar, and there were not many shells.
In addition, there are countless light and heavy machine guns in the gun platoon and sufficient ammunition. In order to quickly improve the shooting skills, the soldiers had to conduct live-fire training every two days, rather than being able to aim like other Eighth Route Army units.
It is not an exaggeration to say that the cannon platoon is rich. To put it in Li Yunlong's words, Wang Chengzhu is like a local rich man...
When there was no combat mission, the soldiers of the artillery platoon were not idle and were conducting arduous training every day.
In order to cultivate the comprehensive abilities of each squad leader, Wang Chengzhu taught the training methods of the "Soldiers Crash Training Manual" and the "Three-Three Tactical Training Manual" to each squad leader, and the squad leader trained by himself.
As a qualified commander, what Wang Chengzhu needs to do is to look at the overall situation, rather than do everything himself. In that case, although he is a diligent commander, he may not be a good commander.
Of course, Wang Chengzhu will also observe the training situation of the troops from time to time in the training ground. He will also point out and correct some inadequate areas in a timely manner.
That afternoon, Wang Chengzhu conducted a routine inspection.
In addition to the cavalry squad, artillery squad and special forces are conducting their own training subjects, the infantry squad uses "Three-Three System Tactics" as the main training subject.
"Be careful of formation! Evacuate but don't disperse!"
"The offensive team, firepower team, and support team must keep up immediately!"
"You are a separate combat team, but at the same time they are a whole!"
“…”
Because Wang Chengzhu said that good training results are good and meat, the training of the cannon platoon is very introverted. In order to eat meat, each class, group, and even every soldier is very hard to train.
After two or three days of training, the "Three-Three System Tactics" has begun to show results. Although the soldiers have not mastered the key points of "Three-Three System Tactics", at least there is no problem with the formation.
According to previous training, during the battle, they rushed towards the enemy's positions, which looked very imposing and intimidating.
But such a charge is actually no different from dying, it is like a group of living targets.
You should know that although the Japanese army's war potential is limited, its firepower is still very strong. If they blindly charge in groups, the Japanese army does not even need to use heavy firepower. They can only rely on machine guns on the position to sweep all the chargers like cutting leeks.
At this time, the importance of "Three-Three System Tactics" was reflected.
Wang Chengzhu was quite satisfied with the sight, but there were still many shortcomings. He was about to step forward and give some advice when an orderly soldier suddenly hurried over: "Plane leader, someone from the regiment headquarters will come to find you."
