Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 621 Things Are Not Simple (Third Update!)

"Thank you for the compliment, brigade commander. These are the results of the joint efforts of comrades!" Wang Ping said modestly.

The brigade commander waved his hand and replied: "It should be your credit and it is your credit. There is nothing to be modest about. You only told me the general situation of the new regiment in the telegram. Now I am here. If you want to know the specific situation, the more detailed it is." The better!"

"Yes! Brigadier!" Wang Ping replied immediately.

"To be precise, we have a total of 1582 captives in our hands. After this period of mobilization, 1149 people are willing to join our Eighth Route Army, and there are more than 200 people who are hesitant!"

"After screening, 966 of the captives who were willing to join our Eighth Route Army agreed to join the Eighth Route Army, and the remaining 200 were unable to join the main force due to various reasons such as old age or injuries. But I plan to Organize them into the logistics force of our new regiment, and strive to establish the logistics support of the new regiment!"

"As long as the brigade headquarters agrees to the reorganization plan of the new regiment, these more than 900 recruits will immediately be added to the troops for training!"

After thinking about it, Brigadier Chen replied: "Including the original strength of the new regiment, there are more than 1000 or [-] people, exactly the size of a regiment. How do you plan to reorganize, be specific, the more detailed the better!"

"First form three main battalions, each main battalion includes three main companies, a heavy machine gun platoon, and a guard platoon, with a total strength of 500 people!"

"Each main force company consists of three combat platoons, a guard squad directly under it, a small artillery squad, which is the devil's grenadier squad! A cooking squad, plus the cadres and clerks of the company headquarters, the total strength is 150 people!"

"The combat platoon consists of three ten-man infantry squads, one machine gun squad, plus the principal and deputy squad leader, a total of 35 people!"

"The troops directly under the regiment include a recruit battalion, a guard company, an artillery company, a transportation company, an engineering platoon, a communications platoon, and a health center..."

"The total strength of the regiment is tentatively set at 2000!"

The brigade commander nodded affirmatively: "The establishment is very complete, I have nothing to say. But you only have 1000 or 800 people in your hand, how to deal with the remaining [-] people!"

Wang Ping immediately expressed his thoughts: "I plan to let one or two battalions, guard companies, and artillery companies be fully staffed, and the other battalions and companies will build up their airs. When there are new recruits in the future, they will be filled directly to form combat effectiveness!"

"That's right. I'll do as you said. I don't have any objections. The appointment of personnel should also be selected from the existing cadres of the new regiment as much as possible. The brigade headquarters is also short of cadres, so it is impossible to send them to you. Make sure first, and report to you when you are done. I'll do it, I'll find the political commissar to fix it for you!"

For the next two days, Wang Ping locked himself in the headquarters.

Because the heads of the political commissars of the new regiment are shoulder-to-shoulder, and the new regiment has no chief of staff, who will be the battalion commander and who will be the company commander can only be decided by Wang Ping.

The only thing that made Wang Ping happy was that the backbone of the new regiment was still there, and among the puppet troops who were willing to join the Eighth Route Army, many of them were former low-level officers of the Jinsui Army.

The brigade commander was not idle either. According to the information collected by Xinyi regiment outside the mountain, he studied the map for two full days.

"Brigadier, this is the appointment of the new regiment that I have confirmed. Have you read it?" Wang Ping interrupted the brigade commander who was thinking, and then sent the list to the brigade commander!

"Let Zhong Chenggong be the chief of staff of the new regiment, will the promotion be faster!" Just after reading the beginning, the brigade commander frowned and asked.

Seeing that Wang Ping did not speak, the brigade commander continued to ask: "In terms of ability, can he be promoted? After all, he was only a deputy battalion commander two months ago. The deputy battalion commander and regiment chief of staff are two completely irrelevant positions? "

Wang Ping was very optimistic about Zhong Chenggong, and directly affirmed: "Half a month ago, the fire may have been a little bit worse, but after this anti-encirclement and suppression campaign, he has made great progress. Let him experience the position of chief of staff for two months, and he will definitely be able to competent!"

The brigade commander immediately understood the meaning of Wang Ping's words: "Okay, let's leave him!"

The next battalion commander, the company commander, was too far away from the brigade commander. With just a glance, the brigade commander agreed.

"Bang..." At this moment, a faint gunshot suddenly came.

Whether it was Wang Ping or Brigadier Chen, both of them were veterans on the battlefield, and they could tell from the sound alone that the gunshots were coming from at least two kilometers away.Therefore, after looking at each other, neither of them panicked.

However, as the host and the brigade commander is here, Wang Ping must ensure the absolute safety of the station.

"Brigadier, don't worry, I'll find out what's going on right away, and absolutely guarantee the safety of the station."

In the next ten minutes, Wang Ping heard several gunshots one after another, from far to near, and the sound became louder and louder.But just when he sent Li Wen over to let him find out what was going on, the intermittent gunfire stopped suddenly.

In the end, before Li Wen came back, Zhong Chenggong, who was teaching the prisoners in the prison camp, rushed back first.

"Commander, the gunfire just now must have been caused by the puppet troops entering the mountain!"

"During this time, the devils seemed to be going crazy. They sent a large number of puppet troops into the mountain every day, and fired a shot every 100 meters to embolden themselves. Our patrol troops and guard posts have arrested more than 100 people in a row, and the devils are not long. Remember, continue to send people into the mountains. Don’t they know that the mountains are controlled by our Eighth Route Army?”

"It is estimated that the second devil escaped our patrol team, and then the gunshots came. The gunfire stopped just now, and the patrol team followed the gunshots to find him and captured him!"

Wang Ping's thinking was not as simple as that of Zhong Chenggong.

In Wang Ping's eyes, devils are not only not stupid, but also very smart.

In particular, Major General Matsumoto, the newly appointed brigade commander of the Linfen Japanese Army, was definitely a very difficult opponent.

Losing so many puppet troops in a row and continuing to send people into the mountains must be done by the devils to achieve some secret they don't know.

Unknowingly, Wang Ping frowned, staring at Zhong Chenggong and asked: "When did this start, why didn't you report it?"

Zhong Chenggong was frightened by Wang Ping's seriousness, and quickly explained: "It started seven or eight days ago, because all the puppet soldiers were caught, and they didn't get anything useful from them. They are scouts for the devils to spy on our intelligence, and they are sent to prisoner camps to receive ideological education, so it’s okay!”

"During this period, more than a dozen puppet soldiers were sent back by the patrol every day, and they are all used to it!"

Seeing Wang Ping's face getting more and more serious, Zhong Chenggong continued: "Head, is there any conspiracy in this, you don't want me to scare me!"

"I'm sure, things are not as simple as you imagined!" Wang Ping affirmed.

"Although the devils don't regard these puppet soldiers as human beings, they were trained with money after all. It's too generous to send them to us as prisoners for nothing!"

Zhong Chenggong also frowned: "Think about it seriously!"

"I will lock up these prisoners alone now, maybe there are devil intelligence agents hidden inside!"
