Chapter 106 Artillery Regiment!Heavy artillery battalion!
Luo Yufeng felt it right away, and without further ado, he said with a smile: "Brigade Commander, don't treat me as an outsider. Those who should be criticized should be drawn. The third battalion has a total of 3000 people. I have no opinion on how many people are suitable for you to keep." of."

On the road, Lao Luo is really good at cooperating. Zhang Gang showed a smile on his face and said:

"Then I will take away 500 people, leaving [-] people to form a regiment of four battalions and twelve companies. The designation is called Xinyi Regiment. What do you think?"

I'm sorry, Lao Li!

Luo Yufeng immediately got up and saluted: "Thank you brigade commander, I will definitely take the new regiment with me."

After arranging the infantry, Zhang Gang's eyes fell on Niu Meng: "Battle Commander Niu, artillery is your old profession. I want you to be the commander of the artillery regiment. What do you agree?"

In the headquarters, the four heads of regiments all landed on Niu Meng with piercing eyes.

This has too much to do with it. The artillery before the Independent Ninth Brigade was arranged by Zhang Gang alone, and the regiments directly applied for how much they used. Anyway, since the beginning of the war, there has never been a situation where the artillery was not in time.

Now, the meaning of transferring artillery responsibility to one person is very different.This means that the regiment-level artillery has been weakened, and another regiment-level cadre has been added.

Now, the Independent Ninth Brigade has sixteen 88 guns, 36 seven-five guns, twelve nine-two infantry guns, forty heavy-caliber rapid-fire guns, and more than 20 40mm Oerlikon guns.One point more or one point less determines the strength of each regiment's firepower.

Niu Meng stood up: "Brigade Commander, I will take care of it. However, which guns belong to the Artillery Regiment, which guns belong to the Heavy Artillery Battalion, and the number of personnel, please arrange it with the Brigadier Commander."

Zhang Gang thought about all these, and immediately said: "The 20 88 anti-aircraft guns belong to the heavy artillery battalion, with 300 gunners, and an infantry battalion is responsible for protecting the heavy artillery battalion. The artillery regiment consists of 48 seven-five guns, 480 gunners, and one Infantry Battalion Protection."

"Where are the remaining guns?" Niu Meng's eyes lit up. This artillery regiment has already surpassed the firepower of most artillery brigades.

"The remaining medium-caliber rapid-fire guns are assigned to each regiment, and the [-] infantry guns are also assigned to the regiments to serve as regiment-level firepower output. Anti-aircraft machine guns must be used uniformly to defend against air attacks by little devils."

The four regiment leaders glanced at each other and exchanged glances. Sun Desheng was the first to applaud, followed by He Xiaowu, Fang Gensheng, and Luo Yufeng.The applause was warm and tangled.

Zhang Gang waved his hand: "Come on, what a slap, it's a waste of time, there is one more thing to talk about.

Now that we are rich, our weapons must be unified. The main force is all equipped with German weapons, and the medium-caliber rapid-fire guns assigned to each regiment must have the same caliber, otherwise we don’t know how to supply ammunition.

Those miscellaneous brand rapid-fire guns are all boxed and packed, and they will be given to the second-line troops when the time comes. "

Everyone has fought in battle, so they naturally know the importance of unified supplies, and they all applauded.

After a short period of reorganization, the new structure of the Independent Ninth Brigade has been adjusted.

The second regiment and the third regiment are super-large regiment configurations of 2000 people from the [-]th Battalion and [-]th Company;
The fourth regiment is composed of 1200 people from the fourth battalion and twelve companies. Although the two armored battalions are small in number, their combat effectiveness is very strong;

The cavalry regiment is equipped with 1000 people from the third battalion and nine companies. The problem is that there are no horses, so it can only be regarded as infantry;
The new regiment is equipped with 1200 people from the fourth battalion and twelve companies;
The artillery regiment + heavy artillery battalion has a total of five battalions with 1500 people.

After the reorganization, Zhang Gang has a 7000-strong direct army, all of which are equipped with German weapons. Although the number has shrunk by [-]%, the combat effectiveness has not decreased, but has increased a lot.

Zhang Gang also made arrangements for the remaining 4000 people. Most of them went to dig tunnels, and some were used as supplementary soldiers to supplement the battle damage and consumption at any time.

The Wulong Mountain side has been arranged in place, and the Yangquan side seems to be moving. Zhang Gang narrowed his eyes and sent a telegram to the two places.

Shanxi, Yangquan, Headquarters of the Ninth Independent Brigade.

Political commissar Zhao Gang looked at the telegram he had just received, and was a little dazed: "It must have been sent by the brigade commander."

"determine."

Zhao Gang opened the telegram and read it word by word: "Old Zhao, the battle here in Nanjing is almost done. ** Here, we have wiped out [-] enemies. Think about it, we can't finish the battle at once. Next, we will head towards Xuzhou." Go forward and eliminate tens of thousands of little devils."

There was unserious laughter around, Zhao Gang glared at Xu Changsheng, and continued to read: "Next, don't stay in Yangquan, come to Shandong quickly, bring more troops, isn't Lao Li always playing the banner of our brigade Well, take it with you this time too."

Li Yunlong immediately became angry, and loudly stated his position: "This is not allowed, I am a serious member of the [-]th Brigade, and it has nothing to do with your independent Ninth Brigade."

"I prepared a thousand brand new [-] caps for him!"

"But for the sake of old friends, I've decided on this occasion!"

Everyone laughed, and the atmosphere became more relaxed.

"I asked the monk's second regiment to go to the WF first, and brought a lot of supplies. With the protection of Commander Yu, it will be fine in the short term, but it will be hard to say if it takes a long time. You should bring more troops to calm down the place."

Li Yunlong's eyes lit up: "Political commissar, since the brigade commander said so, he must have made a lot of money. If we have fewer people, we may not be able to hold on. I'll go back and talk to the brigade commander, and bring another regiment over?"

Zhao Gang was about to refuse, when suddenly a man with big ears came in and saw Zhao Gang stretching out his hand to salute

"Political Commissar Zhao, right? I'm the head of the independent regiment, Kong Jie." Kong Jie saluted, his eyes accidentally caught sight of the equipment of the Ninth Brigade, and he became a little distracted.

The guard's semi-automatic rifle is so fat!

"The General Director agreed to the request of the Ninth Independent Brigade to go to Shandong to fight against Japan. In addition, upon receiving orders from superiors, the Independent Regiment was temporarily incorporated into the Ninth Independent Brigade and rushed to Shandong to fight against Japan together!"

Zhao Gang was very happy when he heard that, and shook Kong Jie's hand vigorously: "Comrade Kong Jie, you came in time."

Including Li Yunlong's Xinyi Regiment, Kong Jie's Independent Regiment, Xu Changsheng's Second Battalion, and Ma Biao's Third Battalion, the number of troops of the Independent Ninth Brigade in the direction of Yangquan has reached [-], which is about the same as an ordinary infantry division.

"Okay, everyone, hurry up and try to reach WF within ten days and join the brigade commander!"
