Bright Sword: Develop alone, bring back an artillery regiment

Chapter 14 The enthusiasm of the people of Wangjia Village, the development of the artillery platoon officially began

"They are not prisoners, they are our enemies! They are even worse than devils!"

"The devils were originally our enemies, but these two devils were originally Chinese, but when foreign enemies invaded and the mountains and rivers were broken, they did not take up arms to rise up and resist, but chose to betray their own country and nation to the devils as traitors, and Pick up the butcher's knife and aim at your own compatriots."

"Besides, we also interrogated them just now, and they are the ones who brought the devils to Wangjia Village."

"Say, shouldn't such bastards be killed?"

Wang Chengzhu's words were so loud that Tian Shuisheng was immediately stopped by the question.

After being stunned for a while, Tian Shuisheng said again: "Platoon leader, those two second devils should be killed, but if the superior finds out, it will not be worth the candle to blame them."

Wang Chengzhu: "If you don't tell me, I won't tell you, and the brothers in our artillery platoon don't tell you, how would the higher-ups know?"

"Besides, our actions are all approved by the team leader and even the boss.

All military operations are carried out on their own, and there is no need to report or turn over the spoils of war. "

"Yes! I understand!"

Tian Shuisheng promised suddenly, and wanted to turn around to carry out the order, but he was stopped by Wang Chengzhu: "Wait a minute."

Tian Shuisheng turned his head: "Platoon leader, do you have any instructions?"

Wang Chengzhu: "Although we have seized a lot of spoils at the moment, we still need to continue to develop our troops. Materials are still in short supply. We can save a little bit, so we don't execute executions by shooting. Let's just use knives."

"Yes!" Tian Shuisheng waited for a moment, then turned and left after seeing that Wang Chengzhu had no other instructions.

After handling everything, Wang Chengzhu asked the soldiers of the artillery platoon to clean up the house together, using his ancestral house as a temporary platoon command post.

At the same time, the news of the devil's elimination gradually spread, and the villagers of Wangjia Village also returned from the back mountain one after another.

After this raid, the villagers of Wangjia Village have realized how evil the devils are. Even if they are honest and responsible, they will not be able to settle down in one corner after all.

There was excitement.

When they learned that Wang Chengzhu came back this time to develop the army to fight devils, many knowledgeable villagers came to their door overnight to sign up to join the army.

Many people also brought eggs, pheasant, wild goat, wild pork and other food.

In short, the rich give money, and the rich give.

"Brother Zhuzi, it's good that you're back! If you didn't come back in time this time, the villagers would have suffered!"

"Brother Zhuzi, we've had enough, I want to join the army to fight devils!"

"Yes, Zhuzi, accept us!"

"..."

The villagers don't understand any major principles, they only know that if the devils want to kill them and occupy their land, then they have to fight the devils desperately.

Standing at the door of his ancestral house, Wang Chengzhu saw the enthusiasm of the villagers, and he couldn't help feeling a little 'grateful' to the little devils. These guys not only helped him arouse the villagers' anti-Japanese enthusiasm, but also sent warmth to the countryside to help him He solved the problem of armament.

With all the soldiers and weapons, we must fight hard!
Wang Chengzhu pressed his hand, signaled the villagers to be quiet, and said, "Thank you, fathers and villagers, uncles, and brothers and sisters for your trust and support in the Eighth Route Army and me. Since you want to join the army, I definitely welcome you."

"Here, I, Wang Chengzhu, represent the Eighth Route Army and the Xinyi Regiment. We welcome all people with lofty ideals to join us and fight against the Japanese and devils together!"

"Shuisheng, register these patriotic youths who are willing to join the army!"

The second squad leader, Tian Shuisheng, went to a private school for a few years, and he was the only one who could read and write except Wang Chengzhu. Perhaps in the 21st century, his culture was not much different from being illiterate. Definitely an intellectual.

Therefore, the job of registering cultural people naturally fell on him.

"Yes!"

Tian Shuisheng suddenly agreed, and then began to register those who signed up to join the army.

Relying on mountains to eat mountains, relying on water to draft water.

Wangjia Village is backed by the remaining veins of Luliang Mountain, and the land is barren, so the villagers basically focus on hunting.

As a result, the villagers in Wangjia Village not only have good physical strength, but many of them have made homemade guns and so on. They have a certain military foundation, and they can form combat effectiveness after simple training.

Soon, Tian Shuisheng's registration was completed.

A total of 58 people signed up to join the army, but 15 people were dismissed by Wang Chengzhu because they were too old or too young, leaving 43 people.

Counting the original 11 men, the artillery force has directly reached 54 men, strictly speaking, it is considered a strengthened platoon.

When rescuing Ding Wei, he killed 12 puppet cavalry, and after entering the village, he killed more than 20 devils and puppet soldiers. The artillery platoon seized more than 30 long and short guns.

In addition, some villagers also brought their own guns, so the weapons are basically enough.

Hundreds of styles of equipment, this is the standard equipment of the Eighth Route Army!
After a short period of joy, Wang Chengzhu quickly calmed down again. He knew that this was not a long-term solution.

In order to develop the army, apart from the problem of weapons and equipment, it is also necessary to solve the problem of food and grass.

What's more, the ammunition they seized was not much, and it was simply impossible to support the artillery platoon for a large-scale war, and even the daily shooting training was not enough.

Now the small number of artillery platoons is easy to solve. With the expansion of the army, these problems will become more and more difficult.

Of course, it’s useless to be anxious, you need to do it step by step.

In the next few days, Wang Chengzhu trained the artillery platoon fighters, including veterans, according to the method of "Soldiers' Crash Training Manual".

The Soldier's Rapid Training Manual is not just for recruits, it is also useful for veterans.

Moreover, veterans already have a certain degree of military common sense, and training them is even more effective.

As for the recruits, they are basically from Orion origin, have a certain shooting common sense, and their physical fitness is also good. They only need to carry out targeted military training.

For example, the way of charging and attacking, the coordination and cooperation between comrades in arms, and battlefield rescue and so on.

Of course, there is also battlefield experience.

With the "Soldier's Crash Training Manual" as guidance, the recruits improved rapidly, and after only 5 days, they initially formed combat effectiveness.

Although they may not be as good as veterans with actual combat experience, they are much better than those recruits of the national army who were arrested and dragged into the battlefield after only touching their guns for two days.

Next comes the practical training.

Because there is such a general outline recorded in the "Soldier's Quick Training Manual": a soldier can only become a qualified soldier if he has experienced the baptism of actual combat, otherwise, any training is just on paper.

It is worth mentioning that.

During these 5 days, Wang Chengzhu was not idle either. He had sent Wang Shugen to lead several veterans to collect relevant information and prepare for the development of the army.

If the artillery platoon wants to develop and grow, it will definitely not work in Wangjia Village.

On the morning of the sixth day, Wang Shugen, who had been away for five days, finally came back.

He found Wang Chengzhu who was training troops in the back mountain, stood up and saluted and reported: "Platoon leader, good news, after a few days of reconnaissance, I found a big deal..."
