A magazine of 30,000 rounds, you call it Hanyang

Zheng Kaixuan promoted almost all the grassroots officers of the original Fourth Battalion.

All the original ten company commanders were promoted to battalion commanders.

All the former platoon leaders were promoted to company commanders.

All the former squad leaders were promoted to platoon leaders.

Each battalion has 110 people, including one battalion commander, one deputy battalion commander, three platoon leaders, three deputy platoon leaders, nine squad leaders, nine deputy squad leaders, and 84 soldiers.

The regiment has a total of ten battalion commanders and ten deputy battalion commanders.

There are thirty company commanders and thirty deputy company commanders.

There are ninety squad leaders and ninety deputy squad leaders.

In addition to Zheng Kaixuan and Wang Xikui, there were a total of 260 commanders and fighters at all levels.

After finalizing the basic personnel appointments for the spearhead regiment, Zheng Kaixuan locked himself up in the battalion headquarters compound, which should now be the regimental headquarters compound.

Of course, this time besides him, there were also the thirty weapons support teams that were claimed to be his engineering classmates from the Military Academy, that is, those bionic intelligent robots.

In the eyes of the soldiers of the Sharp Knife Regiment, these people are a weapons research and development team.

"System, mass-modify equipment."

Zheng Kaixuan hid in the battalion headquarters, naturally to modify the equipment.

This time, in the battle with the Sakata Regiment, including the battle to rescue the Independent Regiment, a total of about 3,300 Japanese soldiers were killed.

Among them, the 700 epaulettes obtained from rescuing the independent regiment had been used up. During the battle, Zheng Kaixuan gave another 500 epaulettes to Kong Jie and the 3rd Company of the 4th Battalion in exchange for thousands of artillery shells.

Apart from these expenses, Zheng Kaixuan still had 2,100 epaulettes left, which was also the most epaulettes Zheng Kaixuan had ever had.

"Use two hundred ordinary Japanese shoulder straps in exchange for one million blank rounds and one hundred thousand blank shells!"

If we want to build the spearhead regiment into an invincible team, training and preparation remain the top priority.

The first thing Zheng Kaixuan did was to exchange his shoulder straps for blank bullets for the soldiers.

Soon, with a flash of white light, the blank shells and bullets in the regiment headquarters compound suddenly piled up like a mountain.

If it were in the past, Zheng Kaixuan would definitely not be able to explain to the soldiers when so many blanks suddenly appeared in his yard. But now with the equipment support team, this matter is not a problem.

In this battle, the Sharp Knife Regiment also seized a lot of gunpowder, ammunition and other supplies. Kong Jie and others only took away a part of them, and the rest were all piled up in Zheng Kaixuan's warehouse and yard.

Zheng Kaixuan only needs to send these blank ammunition to the soldiers in batches under the name of being produced by the equipment support group.

"Mass modification of Hanyang-made semi-automatic rifles."

The 700 new recruits from Niujiayu, including Niu Dashan, are still using ordinary Type 38 bolt-action rifles.

Zheng Kaixuan didn't want his soldiers to have no advantage in equipment when facing the ordinary infantry of the Japanese.

As the regiment commander, his most basic wish is to make the rifles in the hands of all the soldiers in the regiment semi-automated.

[Ding, congratulations to the host. 700 Japanese second-class soldier's shoulder patches, 700 Japanese first-class soldier's shoulder patches, and 700 modified second-level Hanyang-made semi-automatic rifles were consumed. Please check.]

The second-level Hanyang semi-automatic rifle, although it only has a ten-round capacity, is enough to deal with the Type 38 rifles in the hands of ordinary Japanese soldiers, and can basically suppress the Japanese soldiers in terms of firepower.

At this point, the entire spearhead regiment has initially achieved semi-automation of the Hanyang rifles.

Zheng Kaixuan now has only 500 epaulettes left.

"Epaulettes are really useless."

Zheng Kaixuan sighed and continued to modify his equipment.

He continued to use 240 epaulettes and added 30 Class 8 fully automatic rifles to the 1st and 6th Battalions.

The 1st and 6th companies originally had 90 level 8 fully automatic rifles. After giving 20 to Li Yunlong, there are now 70 left.

However, after these two companies were upgraded to battalion-level units, the number of people in each battalion reached 110, and the total number of people in the two battalions reached 220.

Zheng Kaixuan had originally planned to arm both battalions with fully automatic rifles, but seeing that his epaulettes were almost empty, he had no choice but to give up.

At this point, the 1st and 6th Battalions had a total of 100 fully automatic rifles, and the rest were all semi-automatic rifles.

Looking at the only 260 epaulettes left in his hand, Zheng Kaixuan stopped modifying them.

This time he did not use up all the epaulettes at once, but kept some for future use.

The problem currently faced by the spearhead regiment is not actually a problem of weapons and equipment, but that many new recruits have not yet formed combat effectiveness.

The most important task of the spearhead regiment at present is to train the soldiers in various combat skills.

From that day on, Zheng Kaixuan asked Wang Xikui to continue to be responsible for the training of the soldiers.

Wang Xikui took turns to take each battalion to the mountains behind Wei Zhuang and started a very intense devilish training, which lasted for more than half a month.

During this period, Zheng Kaixuan was not idle either.

He also had another very important thing to do at the same time.

When Zhang Dabiao was leaving Heiyunkou, he revealed a piece of news to him.

In the Battle of Xiyang, although the 109th Brigade won a great victory, the commander of the 136th Regiment of the Japanese th Division, Masahide Okada, fled into the mountains with some of the remaining Japanese troops.

If nothing unexpected happens, Masahide Okada should still be active in the Xiyang area.

In order to prevent Okada Masahide from harming local people, Zheng Kaixuan did not dare to take it lightly. During this period, he had been sending people to investigate the news and whereabouts of Okada Masahide and the remnants of the Japanese 136th Regiment.

The commander of the Fourth Battalion, Wang Fugui, personally led the soldiers of the Fourth Battalion to conduct exploration and investigation in the entire Xiyang area day and night.

On this day, Wang Fugui brought several soldiers back to the Wei Zhuang base of the Sharp Knife Regiment and brought back two pieces of news to Zheng Kaixuan.

One is good news and the other is bad news.

The good news is: Okada Masahide's whereabouts have been found. He is leading the remnants of the Japanese 136th Regiment and is currently operating in the Changyugou area west of Dazhai Town.

However, this remnant of the Japanese army was very cunning. They had broken up into small units and supported several small groups of puppet troops as their cover, making them very difficult to deal with.

The bad news is: the Japanese 109th Division has sent out a regiment, which is advancing eastward along the Jinzhong area, with its sword pointed directly at Heiyunkou!

The Japanese Independent 4th Brigade, where the Sakata Regiment is located, also sent out a Matsui Regiment. This regiment is moving south from the Niangzi Pass area, and its target is also Heiyunkou!

The strength of these two regiments is no less than that of the Sakata Regiment, and they are also the elite among the elite of the Japanese. Their target this time is the Spearhead Regiment!

With the current number of troops in the Spearhead Regiment, it would be extremely difficult to deal with more than 8,000 people from two elite Japanese regiments!

"Commander, it's not that I'm afraid of the Japs, but the disparity in numbers between us and the two Japs' regiments is simply too great. The Japs from these two regiments, plus the puppet security forces they've recruited along the way, probably number more than 10,000!"

"Our spearhead regiment has just been established, and we are isolated and deep behind enemy lines. What we should do now is to conserve our strength first, and then look for an opportunity to fight. Otherwise, we should give up fighting the remnants of Okada and temporarily withdraw from Weizhuang Station, hiding in the mountains and forests for a while."

Zheng Kaixuan shook his head.

"Now that we have news of the remnants of Okada's 136th Regiment, we must not let them go!"

"I order that before the two Japanese regiments arrive, the remaining members of the Japanese 136th Okada Regiment must be completely wiped out!"

"Even if two Japanese regiments gather at Weizhuang, we can't just leave quietly without firing a shot!"

"Even if there are ten thousand elite devils on the other side, even if we don't have any reinforcements, even if we are defeated, the Sharp Knife Regiment must bravely show our swords!"

"We must let those damn devils know that we Chinese are not so easy to bully!"
