I am a wolf warrior

The boss is too ruthless, he ordered 16 cannons from the brigade commander!

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

The boss smiled and said: "There are two 385-caliber howitzers and eight infantry guns in the 2th brigade, and the other brigades also seized 105 infantry guns, plus your 8 from the 8th brigade, that's about the same." .”

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

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

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

"I have any opinions, no opinions, no opinions at all." The brigade commander was bitter in his heart, but he still wanted to put on a happy expression on his face.

The boss said again: "You kid said that you have no objection, but you must be secretly scolding me in your heart, saying that I am not particular about my work, whipping a fast cow, and robbing your 386 brigade out of conscience. Isn't this wronging you?"

"Wrong, this is really wronging me." The brigade commander said, "I definitely don't have this idea."

The boss said: "Whether I wronged you or not, you know in your heart, but you, Chen Gen, must have wronged me. I really didn't rob your 386 brigade this time."

"The truth is exactly the opposite of what you think."

"I robbed other brigades to subsidize your 386th brigade."

The brigade commander was stunned for a moment, and said: "Boss, I don't understand what you said. You obviously allocated 386 guns from our 16 brigade, but why did it become a subsidy for our brigade instead?"

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

The brigade commander was overjoyed and said: "Boss, what do you mean, you want to assign this artillery regiment to our 386 brigade?"

"To be more precise, it is assigned to the mobile column directly under the command of the headquarters!" The boss said, "I plan to use your 386 brigade as the backbone, equip an artillery regiment, and form a mobile column together!"

"Mobile column?" The brigade commander was a little surprised, "Is it no longer part of the military area?"

"Yes, your brigade is no longer part of the Taihang Military Region." The boss said, "The general policy of our Eighth Route Army in the past two years is to break it up into parts and combine it with local troops to actively expand its strength."

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

"So I was thinking that it is necessary to re-form a mobile corps, no longer limited to guerrilla warfare and sparrow warfare, but to have the courage to launch larger-scale mobile warfare against devils."

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

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

That's why Li Yunlong, Cheng Shifa and the others have such deep resentment towards the brigade commander's robbery. The superiors don't pay the rations, and they keep robbing from below. How can there be such a commander?

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

This mobile column will no longer serve as the military area, so there will be no separate defense areas, and the logistics of the troops will be unified. From then on, the supply department under the headquarters will be responsible. Of course, the mobile column will have no autonomy in capturing the battlefield. They must be unconditionally handed over to the headquarters for unified deployment.

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

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

"I understand!" The brigade commander said solemnly, "Our 386 brigade will never let the head of the headquarters down!"

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

The habit of the local troops is mainly selfishness, and they want to monopolize what they have.

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

If it's still a local army, then there's no problem. Anyway, it's useful for what it is. If you don't have it, just throw it aside and use it again when you capture the bullets from the devils next time.

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

The ammunition and supplies of the mobile column must be uniformly distributed.

The boss also said: "The problem of logistics support is easy to solve. It is nothing more than to make all regiments unify their equipment and eliminate the old equipment that cannot be used. However, local habits may be difficult to overcome, especially Li Yunlong, a stinky boy. There are more problems than lice on his head, and it is not so easy to fix."

"Boss, you are right." The brigade commander agreed deeply.

"But boss, don't worry, I will reform him."

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

After a pause, he continued: "Taking advantage of this period of time, your brigade headquarters should draw up a reorganization plan as soon as possible. In terms of weapons and equipment, the most important thing is to ensure the right amount of equipment and logistical support. Don't blindly be greedy for more."

"Understood." The brigade commander said, "We will make a plan as soon as possible."

"Okay, then I'm leaving." The boss got up and left after speaking.

"Hey, Boss, don't be in a hurry to leave." The brigade commander hurriedly said, "It's almost time for dinner, let's go after dinner."

"No, I won't stay for dinner this time if I say hello." The boss waved his hand and said, "So as not to fall into your trap again and trick me into eating meat and drinking alcohol."

The brigade commander said: "Boss, I'm not talking about you, what's wrong with eating some meat?"

The boss said: "It's okay to eat some meat. Who doesn't like meat? But the problem is that I'm used to the meat here, but I can't get used to the sweet potatoes and potatoes from the headquarters when I go back. What should I do?"

The brigade commander stopped talking, the boss is very upright.

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

"Understood." The Chief of Staff, who was also nearby just now, nodded and said, "The establishment of a mobile column is a great thing. I believe Li Yunlong and the others will definitely support it."

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

"This is really difficult." The chief of staff said, "If you want to form a mobile column, you must first standardize it, and then the organizational system and equipment of the subordinate regiments must be unified."

"Like what it is now, you have 17 companies in one regiment, I have 15 companies in one regiment, and the remaining one has 10 companies. That will definitely not work, and must be unified."

"There are also weapons and equipment, and they must be as unified as possible."

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

"For example, grenades. On average, each grenade has less than one grenade, and it is difficult to capture them on the battlefield. What's the use of keeping these grenades? It just increases the burden on soldiers."

"That's the reason." The brigade commander said, "Then we must first find out the background of our brigade."

The chief of staff said: "Brigade Commander, what do you mean, let Li Yunlong and the others report their family background? That's impossible, they will definitely not report truthfully, at most a symbolic report, especially that kid Li Yunlong may still cry poorly, let us The brigade headquarters in turn gave their regiment a little more ammunition."

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

"No way." The Chief of Staff shook his head like a rattle, "It's really impossible."

The brigade commander Mosha said with a chin: "If it doesn't work, we can only force the order."

……

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

This is an old comrade-in-arms, and after the incident, they can hang out and drink together again.

This time Zhao Gang didn't object to Li Yunlong's drinking anymore. After such a big victory, it would be really unreasonable not to let Li Yunlong drink a celebration wine.

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

Anyway, there are quite a few Xinghua Village among the seized materials.

But Zhao Gang still told Li Yunlong not to get drunk, as to whether Li Yunlong would listen or not, 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 among the materials seized in Yangquan? Bring them!"

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

"Full up, full up, give it to Lao Ding and the others." Li Yunlong said with a smile.

At this time, Li Yunlong had already forgotten that Wang Ye had left him for a while.

Wang Ye opened the wine, filled Ding Wei, Kong Jie, and Cheng Shifa respectively, and then filled Li Yunlong again, but when he put down the bottle and wanted to leave, Li Yunlong stopped him.

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

"I won't drink with the chiefs." Wang Ye said with a smile, "Lao Zhang and the others are waiting for me."

"You mean Zhang Dabiao? Let him come too. The 1st Battalion fought really well this time. I have to toast him with a bowl of wine." After speaking, Li Yunlong turned his head and shouted, "Zhang Dabiao? Zhang Dabiao!"

Zhang Dabiao entered in response, wiped his mouth and said, "Commander, what's the matter?"

Li Yunlong chuckled and said, "Zhang Dabiao, your 1st Battalion did a good job in this battle, I respect you."

After speaking, Li Yunlong handed his wine bowl to Zhang Dabiao, Zhang Dabiao did not dislike it, he took it and drank it dry, and wiped his mouth when he was done.

Wang Ye rolled his eyes, the two elders drank each other's saliva?Is it disgusting?

"Sit, Xiao Wang, you sit too." Li Yunlong got up and squeezed beside Kong Jie, and asked Wang Ye and Zhang Dabiao to sit on the side. The Eight Immortals table can seat eight people, and there is no problem with six people.

After sitting down, Zhang Dabiao said, "Commander, I just heard some news."

"News?" Li Yunlong immediately paused in his heart, and asked, "What news did you hear, kid?"

After Cangyunling broke through last time, it was also Zhang Dabiao who heard the news that the boss was furious and said that he might be dismissed. As a result, he was dismissed and assigned to be the factory director of the clothing factory for three months.

Now recalling this matter, Li Yunlong still has lingering fears.

Zhang Dabiao said: "Didn't I have a fellow in the combat class at the headquarters?"

Hearing this, not only Li Yunlong, Kong Jie and the others also pricked up their ears.

Zhang Dabiao said: "My fellow villagers also came to our brigade with the boss this time. Just now at the entrance of the village to catch up with me, I accidentally revealed a piece of news about our brigade!"

"Let's go?" Cheng Shifa asked anxiously, "What news?"

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

"Reorganization?" Kong Jie looked confused, "What does this mean?"

Cheng Shifa was also in a daze, obviously unable to react.

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

The four regiments sounded like regular troops, but in fact they were no different from local troops. They all had their own territory, each had its own logistics, and there were very few joint operations between them in wars.

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

"Yes, what Lao Ding said is correct." Li Yunlong echoed repeatedly, "This is indeed a good thing."

"Regimental Commander, it may not be a good thing." Zhang Dabiao said, "If our 386th Brigade is to be reorganized, it means that the troop organization and weaponry must be unified. How can we unify?"

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

"Nonsense." Li Yunlong jumped up when he heard the words, "Our independent regiment has no redundant combat units, nor old equipment to be eliminated, not even a single rifle!"

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

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

Kong Jie probably agreed with this.

Because his new second regiment is really not a single extra combat unit, there are 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. The soldiers of the New Second Regiment went to fight the devils with bare hands, right?

Otherwise, what kind of regular army?

Cheng Shifa probably would not have any opinion on this.

Because the 772 regiment was originally an organic regiment of the 129th division, if the 386 brigade really wanted to reorganize, it would probably follow the 772 regiment as a template for reorganization, so he was not in a hurry.

Ordinarily, Ding Wei should be the most anxious.

Because the new regiment has the most troops and more weapons and equipment.

For reorganization, it is estimated that the new regiment will lay off more than one-third of its troops.

Li Yunlong then said to Ding Wei: "Old Ding, we have to talk to the brigade commander about this. Reorganization is fine, but it is not good to cut off combat units and eliminate old equipment. It is not easy for our two regiments to accumulate such a small fortune."

"Old Li, it's actually nothing." Kong Jie said with a smile, "The meat is still in the pot after it's rotten."

"Go away, don't talk, you idiot Kong Er." Li Yunlong said with a dark face, "Of course you are so fucking eager 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 ones that were eliminated The weapons and equipment just happened to be given to your new second regiment to change their outfits. You didn’t do anything during your dog days, but you took all the benefits. How can there be such a beautiful thing in the world? No, no, no, this kind of reorganization is absolutely no."

Kong Jie was not angry at this moment, and said with a smile: "Why are you angry with me? I didn't make the reorganization. If you have the ability, you can complain to the boss? The boss is in the brigade now."

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

Chapter 129 Inspirational

Li Yunlong was speechless immediately.

Because Li Yunlong also discovered this problem, whether it was the battle of Niangziguan or the battle of the last four regiments attacking Yangquan County, only 2 battalions actually went into battle.

On the one hand, it is because the width of the battlefield is limited, and too many troops cannot be deployed.

On the other hand, there are also those who cannot command. War is not a sand table deduction. As long as the commander gives an order, the corresponding combat units will be able to respond immediately. Establish timely and reliable communication links.

The communicators mentioned here include cavalry communicators and radio communicators.

If there are too many combat units to command, it will not only greatly increase the calculation workload of the commander, but also greatly increase the workload of the communication soldiers. Once the communication is not smooth, or the commander makes mistakes due to too much calculation, The consequences are catastrophic, with the loss of a combat unit likely leading to the failure of the campaign.
