Chapter 96 The Fourth Battalion
This time the tail was cut, the Second Battalion not only caused the Russians to lose nearly 300 bodies again, but also caused the Russians to drop two heavy machine guns.
After leaving the fourth company with the greatest losses to clean the battlefield, the two companies of the second battalion immediately joined forces with the first battalion, and carried a total of seven heavy machine guns, they chased the Russians without any scruples.
The final result was that with the support and help of the first and second battalions, the Third Battalion cut off the tails of more than 300 Russians again, and also robbed three heavy machine guns.
Major General Vasily, who was panicked all the way, finally fled back to Anshan County like a stray dog and confined the gate of Anshan County...
"Win... Commander, we won. Our Yangjiazhai regiment training really defeated the Russian field infantry regiment." After receiving the good news from the three battalions, the artillery position, Zhong Hu, deputy company commander of the artillery company, rushed to Yang Xingguo with a look of surprise and said in his most excited voice...
"I did win...but the battle is not over yet..." After the excitement on his face because of victory was slowly covered by seriousness, Yang Xingguo, who had been silent for a short time, spoke in surprise...
"It's not over yet... Commander, what do you mean..." Zhong Hu was stunned and asked with confusion.
"The Russians suffered another defeat and lost more than a thousand people... It is certain that the Russians' strength in Anshan is the weakest at this moment... We must seize this opportunity, do everything possible to recover and strengthen our strength..."
"Otherwise, when the Russians came from Lushun's reinforcements, we would have no chance..."
A sudden enlightenment flashed quickly across Zhong Hu's face, and then he said with excitement.
"Commander, I understand. You want to expand the results of the war while the Russians are weakest!"
Yang Xingguo nodded and ordered without hesitation: "Deputy Company Commander Zhong, I will send my order to the three battalions immediately: the three battalions will concentrate the troops of two companies, bring heavy machine gun platoons and set off immediately. I will give them three days. Within three days, each battalion will drive me an iron ore back..."
"Yes, Commander..." Zhong Hu, who looked excited, replied loudly.
Two days later, Yangjiatun had just returned to peace and welcomed the second battalion that had returned triumphantly...
More than 200 soldiers from the Second Battalion and more than 300 absenteeism who were willing to participate in the regiment training. The five vehicles of supplies and weapons that had just been seized directly formed a mighty convoy and drove into Yangjiatun.
After just a few hours of rest, I had to get busy again.
The second battalion had just finished, and the first battalion and the third battalion also returned to Yangjiatun one after another.
Compared with the Second Battalion, the first and third battalions brought back more things. The two battalions not only brought back more than 800 absentees who were willing to join the regiment training, but also seized 13 large chariots of weapons, ammunition and other materials. On the way back, they also took a bandit den, seized various financial chariots, and captured more than 100 bandits... "
At the Yangjiazhai Regiment Training Command located in Yangjiatun, all officers above the company gathered here to summarize the battle process over the past few days.
As the commander, Yang Xingguo undoubtedly sat at the top.
Deputy Commander Wang Hu and Chief of Staff Zhou Zhongju sat on both sides of Yang Xingguo, while Battalion Commander Zhao Zhigang and Deputy Battalion Commander Zhou Qiangsheng sat next to them. As for the other company commanders, they sat behind their own battalion commander according to the organization...
Like all post-war summary meetings, the results and reports of war losses at the beginning of the old generation talks were reported.
Because the battle has ended for several days, whether it is the result or the damage, it is no secret for these battalion company commanders.
Therefore, the whole process was reported in the mid-week period and passed without any surprises.
However, the next question, Yang Xingguo just said it, attracted the attention of all the battalion commanders below...
"Brothers, it is indeed a very happy thing for us to return in a miserable defeat... But there is one thing I have to tell you. According to our detailed report on Anshan County, last night, the Russians who came from Lushun reinforcements had entered Anshan County..."
"This time, the Russians not only came thousands of infantry, but also brought more than ten mountain cannons that everyone had seen, nine heavy machine guns. If the Russians fled back to the county, the Russians' garrison troops in Anshan... Our enemy once again had more than three thousand troops, and they were well-equipped and well-trained..."
"Although I don't know when the next siege of the Russians will begin... but we must restore our strength as much as possible before the Russians come..."
"So, I decided to replenish the absenteeism that is willing to participate in our regiment training to each battalion company immediately, and use veterans to lead new recruits to travel as soon as possible... During training, live ammunition should be used, and artillery company is no exception..."
"Chief of Staff, please announce to everyone that the number of new recruits needs to be supplemented by each battalion and the number of veterans needs to be drawn..."
Zhou Zhongju stood up from his seat again and said, "According to the commander's request, forty veterans were drawn from the first battalion, including one deputy company commander, three platoon commanders, deputy platoon commanders, and handed them to the headquarters. The headquarters added a total of 249 new recruits to the first battalion..."
"The Second Battalion drew the same number of veterans to add 254 new recruits..."
"The Third Battalion has drawn 30 veterans to add 286 new recruits..."
"The heavy machine gun platoons of each battalion were expanded to three squads and equipped with three heavy machine guns..."
"In addition, each battalion has established a new recruit company. Except for the light machine gun squad, other signs are the same
The combat company is the same. The company commander and squad platoon leader are required for the recruit company, and each battalion will solve the problem by itself... "
Replenishing new recruits, expanding their organization, and even adding a heavy machine gun is a good thing for the company commanders of each battalion.
However, it would be difficult for them to accept that the headquarters would take away one of their platoon veterans for no reason...
After several battles, these officers were no longer the rookies they used to be. They knew very well the importance of veterans in a wrong team.
So, as soon as Zhou Zhongju finished speaking, Wang Hu asked with dissatisfaction: "Commander, there are not many veterans in the Second Battalion. If you draw forty veterans away, the combat effectiveness of the Second Battalion will definitely be greatly affected... You see, can you not pull the veterans away? When we train the new soldiers, we will change them to the Commander back..."
Just as the others were about to agree, Yang Xingguo interrupted decisively: "No... Do you think I'm trying to find trouble for these veterans... Tell you that these veterans will become the backbone of our Yangjiazhai regiment training regiment..."
