Chapter 1099 Chapter 1108, the special forces are back, everything is still the same

"Although we have won many battles, the policy on our candy is getting more and more nervous, with constant friction and blockade! Therefore, other regiments, even with so many troops, are difficult to support so many people! Therefore, the policy of the headquarters and the central government is to streamline the military and simplify the government. Release some unimportant troops to the local government and help the local government develop."

"At this time, we can see the importance of Li Yuexuan and the others' trouble this time! With their experiments, the headquarters just formed some small-scale regiment-level units to make the equipment better and there are more veterans! Alas... Speaking of veterans, I have to say that the whole army is looking at your Ninth Detachment, and they all want to get some veterans away from you." Minister Zhang said with a smile.

"Ahem, don't give it! No one wants to give it! The entire detachment here, from commanders to ordinary soldiers, even the new recruits who just joined the army this year, have combat experience! Such a unit is a treasure, it is the Dinghai Sword Needle, and it cannot be split up!" Hu Changyi quickly expressed his attitude. He knew that the Eighth Route Army had worked hard to expand, but the consequence was that the veterans were diluted and then diluted, and even many squad leaders had never fought a war. Is this possible?

In fact, the reason why the Eighth Route Army has been so difficult in recent years is that in addition to the Japanese cage policy and the anti-communist policy of filling the country, it is that it has developed too fast and the combat effectiveness of the army has plummeted. Moreover, it has developed rapidly and has no assistance from the military industry system, and all weapons can only be captured. How can it have combat effectiveness?

Later, in order to improve combat effectiveness, many arsenals even gave up producing firearms and worked hard to produce ammunition and grenades to ensure that soldiers could have weapons.

Of course, it is different now. With him being cheated, there are no shortage of grenades, rifles and pistols have been mass-produced several years ahead of schedule, and there are also bullet production lines. The expanded Eighth Route Army will not be useless without weapons.

In addition, there are shotguns that are simple to manufacture, fast to learn, and easy to use. They have great lethality in melee combat. The combat power of the Eighth Route Army will not be reduced too much. Well, that's the same: if a recruit wants to shoot the rifle correctly, he must have at least 50 rounds of training to ensure the accuracy of 100 meters. But shotguns don't need this, just bomb.

But even so, the overall combat effectiveness of many troops is really not as good as those two years ago! This is the consequence of the dilution of veterans. No one can fight, and the equipment cannot make up for this gap.

Another thing is that even these numerous bases are difficult to support so many troops, which is a pity.

Moreover, Hu Changyi also knew that next year, there would be a great famine in Henan. The inaction of dried fruits would make up for the miserable five elements of the people. Although this famine had nothing to do with Shanxi, we would have to do something, right? Moreover, there would be less food available here. Well, now we can still buy military rations from the Central Army through Shanxi merchants, and it will not work next year.

"If you don't give me, I won't give me, and no one asks you for it! Well, except for the brigade commanders of the ranks, everyone else has no shame to open this!" Just as Hu Changyi was traveling to the train, Minister Zhang's voice came back.

"Then, it's late November, and the Chinese New Year is coming in a blink of an eye. What's your next plan?" Hu Changyi asked Minister Zhang.

"The big plan is to streamline the military and simplify administration, implement the localization of the main force, merge part of the main brigade and the military sub-district in stages and batches, and strengthen local armed forces. Your division has actually been doing this for a long time, and now it will be promoted to the entire army. In this way, increasing local armed forces can also solve the problem of some production labor and feed some troops."

"Then, there are military sub-districts of each military region. Based on your experience, one or two combat troops with strong mobility, advanced weapons, and sufficient number of veterans. These troops exist for war, with sharp knives and heavy hammers! How to say it? The headquarters made a calculation with the central government and came up with a number of 300,000."

"That is, all the main forces of the Eighth Route Army, the troops capable of large-scale combat are maintained at 300,000. These forces are responsible for confronting the Japanese's raids, opening up new bases, and important military combat. Then, local armed forces strengthen equipment and training! Well, this seems to have nothing to do with you, you will not make guns here!" Minister Zhang said with a smile.

"Don't you still have a pistol? This can actually be sent to the guerrillas. Anyway, whether it is the guerrillas or the district team and county brigade, there is no requirement for weapons!" Hu Changyi said.

"Get out! If there are enough pistols, give all the main forces so that one pistol is not necessary to have any strength? At least when fighting with the Japanese, the shotgun and the pistol are cooperated, and the scene is beautiful enough!" Minister Zhang has also fought a war, so he naturally knows about the war.

"As for your arsenal... your bullet production line continues to be built, and your middle powerful bullet will be transformed. Then, you will come out with the gun that adapts to the bullet. Then, I will contact Mao Xiong, and maybe I can get some things in my hands! I have to say that we have strong combat power and have good things in our hands, and we speak hard!" Minister Zhang sighed.

Minister Zhang didn't say anything, and Hu Changyi didn't ask. Anyway, Mao Xiong's attitude towards us, and everyone who understands it is clear. Hu Changyi is already very satisfied with the current situation.

"The half-dead hair bear is the best hair bear!" Hu Changyi suddenly remembered a popular sentence on the Internet later. After sighing in his heart, he said: "Minister Zhang, don't use that rocket launcher to exchange for Mao Xiong's family. No matter how we do, we must have a weapon that can be used! The rocket launcher has been given to Mao Xiong's family. Forget it, the rocket launcher is not the same as others have it."

"The Mao Xiong family has too many good things, but they just don't give them to us, and they all gave them dried fruits! It's not easy for us to get some! Can your rocket launcher be cheaper? If the cost is low enough, we can also make more. Many people are studying this thing and found that it is very flexible!" Minister Zhang showed an inexplicable smile on his face.

"The cost... Yes, you have to accumulate skilled workers and continue to work on equipment! You have also seen that the current rocket launcher has been painted without paint, and the shell is not made of good steel plates, so it can't be simplified..." Hu Changyi felt that it was very difficult. 107 is a cheap and easy-to-use representative? The key is that it is cheap. I don't even use anti-rust paint. How can I reduce the cost?

After the conversation with Minister Zhang, Hu Changyi continued to take charge of the arsenal. Perhaps it was anger. After the battle, he did not go to ask about the affairs of the three brigades.

However, with Minister Zhang here, the three brigades are already in their positions. Of course, there are personnel transfers, such as Lai Dongxing, who has no sense of existence, was transferred, which seems to be the creation of the small streamlining main group that Minister Zhang said.

The day after the conversation, Li Yuexuan and the others finally returned to Jiuzhai. The trucks of the assault company and the convoys of the transportation company came back together.
