Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 27 Cross the river and demolish the bridge
Some people will ask at this time, since veterans are so important, why doesn't Wang Ping want veterans!

In the current guard company, the real veterans are those who are drawn by the commander from the headquarters.However, those new recruits in the company have not become real veterans after today's day-to-day training.However, after experiencing the bloody battle, they are not far from veterans.

It only needs to go through a period of tempering, and the remaining 80 or [-] people in the guard company will become veterans.

At that time, the lack of guards will not be veterans, but recruits.

Seventy or eighty veterans lead a hundred recruits, almost one to one ratio. Wang Ping is confident that it doesn't take too long for the guard company to become a truly elite team!

Satisfied Wang Ping continued: "Commander, with the addition of a hundred new recruits, the total strength of the guard company will exceed 170. I plan to form three reinforcement platoons of 45 people, one heavy machine gun platoon, and one artillery platoon. Then add a guard class, a cooking class..."

"The heavy machine gun platoon, the artillery platoon, and the main regiment of the military sub-division don't have artillery platoons. You can create one from a guard company, no! Besides, you just want to create an artillery platoon, and you don't have a cannon!" Yang Chengwu thought He refused without thinking.

"I have no objection to the establishment of a reinforced company, but I think it is more cost-effective to set up an additional infantry platoon than to set up a heavy machine gun platoon and an artillery platoon that have no shadow at all!"

Wang Ping insisted: "Commander, I will solve the problem of equipment by myself. I will never ask the commander for a gun or a bullet! I guarantee that a full reinforcement company will stand by your side for a month at most. In front of you. However, I also hope that you can promise me a small request!"

"I agree! What is the small request you want me to agree to?" Yang Chengwu, who was full of anticipation, finally agreed, staring at Wang Ping and asked.

As the commander, he also wanted to see what kind of miracle Wang Ping, an old subordinate, could create for himself!
Wang Ping immediately interjected: "Now the headquarters is deep in the mountains, and there are many main troops guarding around. Safety should not be a problem. I want the guard company to use the platoon as a unit, go out to find bad luck for the devils, and go out to train troops by the way." !"

At this time, before Commander Yang Chengwu could speak, the chief of staff rushed to object: "I disagree! The duty of the guard company is to protect the safety of the headquarters. The main force has to go out to fight, and it is not the guard company's turn!"

"The guard company is not around the headquarters. If something happens and something happens to the headquarters, who will protect the headquarters!"

Wang Ping quickly explained: "Chief of Staff, it's not that all the guards go out, but only one platoon goes out at a time. The time is about five days, and the three platoons attack in turn. In this case, there are two platoons around the headquarters from beginning to end." More than 100 people protect the headquarters!"

"Also, the devils outside the mountain have been killed and injured by us so many people have not retreated, they must have been consumed with us. I heard that the anti-encirclement campaign has been going on for so long, and our supplies can hardly keep up!"

The chief of staff did not hide it: "Indeed, if it weren't for the horse meat you brought back, the army would have run out of food. The base area has just been established, and we can't collect food on the spot. We can only rely on purchases and seizures. Now we are fighting, and we can't buy food at all." When it comes to food, although some were seized, it certainly cannot meet the consumption of more than 2000 people in the military region!"

"Then it's time to attack!" Wang Ping said immediately.

"More than 2000 people in our military division need so much food every day. There are nearly 3000 devils left. The food consumed every day must be astronomical. With so much food, they must have been continuously sent to Lingqiu from the rear. The county seat. I want to take the troops to the devil’s supply line to see if we can get food!”

"Also, if there is one less platoon in the guard company, the usual food supply will be less, and it will also reduce the logistical pressure on the headquarters!"

Yang Chengwu didn't answer right away, but fell into deep thought!
"After we wiped out a reinforced squadron, the devils became more cautious. There are at least two squadrons in the troops out of the city. Even if we gather two regiments, it will be difficult to wipe them out in a short period of time!"

"In this case, it will be very difficult for us to force the devils to retreat by consuming the main force of the devils!"

The chief of staff also understood after a while, and said, "Commander, what do you mean! It's the same as what Wang Ping said just now, we jump directly to the devil's rear, attack the devil's supply line, or his defense base, which is empty, stronghold! "

"Beat the devil so badly that their front-line troops will not get supplies, and force him to end this siege!"

Yang Chengwu immediately made a decision: "In this way, notify the first regiment and the second regiment to deploy two full-staffed main battalions to reach the rear of the devils. The first regiment is responsible for attacking the empty rear stronghold of the devils, and the second regiment is responsible for cutting off Devil logistics supply line, set off immediately!"

"I don't believe that devils are made of iron, and they can continue to spend here with us without logistical supplies!"

Wang Ping is in a hurry, this is obviously crossing the river and tearing down the bridge!
I used my own thinking, but when it was my turn to fight the devils, I had nothing to do with myself!

"Then me, Commander?" Wang Ping hurriedly asked with an expression of disbelief!

Yang Chengwu replied with a serious face: "You have too few troops in a platoon, and it won't be of much use in the devil's logistics supply line! If you really want to go, I agree, but you must obey the command of the second regiment commander Wang!"

What Wang Ping wants is the right to fight independently, and now let him listen to other people's orders!It would be better not to attack.

After a short hesitation, he decided cruelly: "Then I won't go, I will look for a fighter outside the mountain and find a way to kill the devil!"

At this time, Yang Chengwu had already agreed with Wang Ping's idea of ​​wanting the guards to attack in turn.

After looking at each other with the chief of staff, he decided very decisively: "I agree with you to attack, but I also have requirements. When you leave the forest, you must not go head-to-head with the devils. If you are not sure of victory, you must not fight the devils. You must control it well. Guard company casualties. After all, most of the guard companies are recruits!"

After the expansion of the guard company, Zeng Quan no longer served as a platoon leader.

The current platoon leader, Zhang Qing, was a squad leader of the recruit company half a month ago, and was also a former Red Army soldier.Because he was young and quick-witted, he was directly favored by Wang Ping.

In the first round, there was a platoon following Wang Ping's attack, plus the guard squad, one artillery squad, and one heavy machine gun squad, with a total strength of about sixty troops.

It was a lively base half a month ago, but after the devils tossed it, it immediately became depressed.

Many villages have been deserted because of avoiding the siege of the devils, and there are still many villages with corpses of people massacred by the devils hanging at the entrance!Because no one buried them, the corpses were stiff and looked particularly pervasive.

After mentioning several villages in a row, five civilian corpses were buried.

There were more than 60 soldiers behind Wang Ping, everyone was filled with righteous indignation, wishing to find the devils immediately and tear them to pieces!
