Now that the topic has come to this point, Kong Jie, Zhao Gang, and Li Yunlong all put down their wine bowls and focused on how to deal with the Japanese retaliatory sweeps after this large-scale raid.
Li Yunlong said: "The Japanese are carrying out a large-scale sweep. In fact, apart from our Eighth Route Army, the people who suffer the most are the people in our base areas."
Kong Jie deeply agreed with this and reminded: "As far as we know, the little devil is inhumane and has no conscience. He raised the butcher's knife against the defenseless people, not once or twice."
"So in response to what Lao Li said, once the Japanese raids begin, it will be the common people who will suffer. We must take countermeasures in this regard and make things worst."
Li Yunlong said: "How bad is it?"
"This time our Eighth Route Army carried out a large-scale raid, which paralyzed the traffic lines of the Japs. The Japs suffered great losses. In addition, they were attacked everywhere. The hatred in the hearts of the Japs must be quite big.
Once a large-scale raid is launched, the worst-case scenario is that the little devils will not care whether the target of their annihilation is the Eighth Route Army or ordinary people. They will not even leave an inch of land behind, killing all living people, looting all supplies, and even destroying villages.
Everything I saw inside, including houses, crops, and trees, was burned and chopped down."
Li Yunlong said: "It is indeed possible, the little devil has done this kind of thing before.
This is also my biggest headache. If we can’t move the masses in advance when the Japanese launch a large-scale raid, we will never be able to let go and fight the Japanese."
Kong Jie said: "So, in response to the upcoming large-scale raids by the Japanese army, we must take measures to protect the villagers."
"My idea in this regard is that, on the one hand, the militiamen are now training according to our militia military training manual. They have also mastered a lot of military basics. We should further expand the scale of the militia organization. Of course, it cannot affect farming.
."
"On the other hand, our base, and even all villages in the guerrilla zone, must send cadres to cooperate with the militia comrades to conduct evacuation drills for the entire village."
"Evacuation drill?"
"Yes, that is to say, in response to the sudden arrival of the Japanese army, the people's emergency evacuation must be fast and timely. It is too late to do this only after it actually happens, so we
It is necessary to conduct evacuation drills for the people in advance."
"The ultimate target point for evacuation is naturally the mountains close to the village. As long as the people can safely evacuate to the mountains before the Japanese raids arrive at the village, disaster can be truly avoided."
"The main target of the little devils is still our Eighth Route Army. When the time comes, we will fight from there and provide cover for the people. The devils will not go to the deep mountainous areas thanklessly to continue raiding and suppressing the people."
"In addition, the evacuation drill we conducted for the people was relatively comprehensive. Not only did we need to move the people away, but we also gave them enough time to move all important materials such as their household belongings, rations, and livestock. At least it took
Support the people to survive in the mountains for more than half a month."
"In addition, if people want to evacuate in time, vigilance work is a very important step."
"I plan to establish militia communication base stations in the villages in the major guerrilla areas of our independent regiment. The militia comrades will take the responsibility to set up security within five kilometers around the villages and use various communication methods, such as military flags and felling trees to communicate
We must be alert to the movements of the Japanese army at all times. Once the Japanese army sweeps away troops, the news must be quickly conveyed to the village through the base station, and then the people will immediately evacuate.”
"The cadres sent to do mass ideological work must clearly explain the interests to the people. This is a major matter involving everyone's survival, and no one can treat it as a child's play."
Zhao Gang said: "This is a good idea, Lao Kong, please continue. I will summarize our measures to deal with the Japanese army's large-scale raids this time and report them to our superiors in a timely manner. I hope that all our departments and bases can prepare countermeasures in advance."<
/p>
Kong Jie nodded and continued: "As mentioned just now, for emergency evacuation, we need the strong cooperation of militia comrades, so the militia needs to expand its scale and continue to strengthen military training."
"Tell the cadres who direct the militia training to strengthen emergency evacuation and mine defense training."
"Once the people evacuate urgently, the militia comrades must promptly lay landmines in the village to block the pursuit of the Japanese army. This can also kill the Japanese and puppet troops to a certain extent. During this period, the militia comrades followed us to seize landmines and other
It just comes in handy."
"As for our independent regiment, on the one hand, we will strengthen our vigilance and strengthen the collection of intelligence work. On the other hand, we will continue to strengthen military training. Before the Japanese army's sweep begins, we will try our best to improve every combat effectiveness of our soldiers and pass them through as much as possible.
Various small-scale battles, more weapons and ammunition were seized."
"In addition, the individual combat command experience of each battalion commander, company commander and even platoon commander must be strengthened, and everyone must be trained as early as possible so that everyone can act independently."
"Once the Japanese army's big sweep comes, facing the Japanese army whose strength far exceeds ours, I'm afraid it will be indispensable to divide our troops to break out. When the time comes, these company and platoon leaders will be the key."
……
……
This morning, Kong Jie, Li Yunlong, and Zhao Gang were at the regiment headquarters and discussed a lot about how to deal with the upcoming large-scale raids by the Japanese army.
Zhao Gang even remembered everything in his notepad.
After that, Zhao Gang wrote a detailed document report and delivered it to the brigade headquarters.
The brigade commander also attached great importance to this. Unexpectedly, Kong Jie and the other two people went together with the headquarters to analyze the aftermath of the attack.
As for the countermeasures that Kong Jie, Li Yunlong, and Zhao Gang came up with on how to deal with the Japanese raids, they were also taken seriously by the brigade commander and forwarded to the headquarters. The boss immediately saw the value and feasibility of these suggestions and passed them on to each regiment for study.
And repeatedly explained that it must be implemented.
Afternoon.
Kong Jie went to the repair shop to inspect and explain some things.
After entering the armory, Kong Jie discovered that there were a large number of guns piled up in the warehouse of the armory.
There were many light machine guns and even a heavy machine gun among them, but they were all more or less damaged, and they were sent to the repair shop to be repaired before they could be re-equipped with the troops.
"So many damaged guns need to be repaired?" Kong Jie asked.
Seeing Kong Jie coming, Dong San quickly dropped what he was doing and rushed over to give a military salute. "Yes! Commander, after taking the Yangquan stronghold this time, the first battalion, the second battalion, the third battalion, especially
The Fourth Battalion has sent a large number of damaged firearms that need to be repaired. Our repair shop may be very busy during this period."
Kong Jie rolled his eyes and said: "Don't rush to repair the firearms. The drawings I gave you last time asked you to research the time bomb based on the principle of mechanical vibration of the alarm clock. How are you doing with the research?" p>
Dong San said excitedly: "Captain, your drawings are actually very clear. At the repair shop, Jiang Hai and I can understand them at a glance.
Later, I divided the repair institute into research groups. There were three groups in total, the bomb research group, the new weapons research group, and the modified weapons research group.
It didn't take long for the bomb research team to successfully research this time bomb that uses the timing principle of an alarm clock.
Mechanical timing vibrations can easily activate primers, or detonate detonators using a closed electrical circuit. This is the basic principle behind our development of this time bomb.
It's really yours. How did you think that this bomb can also use an alarm clock to achieve a timing effect?
You don’t know, old squad leader Jiang Hai and the others are almost in awe of him.
Everyone said that if the independent regiment had not been led by its commander, I would have dragged you to the repair shop to do research!
In the future, if we have this time bomb, it will be more convenient than the detonator bomb."
Kong Jie smiled and said: "I just have more ideas, but if you really want me to develop these weapons, then I will stop you.
Okay, as long as the research is successful, I will give you a task. Within ten days, the repair shop will rush to produce fifty time explosive bags for me. In addition, try to produce as many new explosive bags that can be detonated by detonators. I have a big team behind me.
Useful."
"But, these damaged firearms, Captain?"
"I told you not to rush. The firearms are just here. Can you still run away on your own?"
After Kong Jie finished speaking, he thought for a while and then added: "But if the matter of the explosive packs is settled, we can also start repairing the firearms by then. Let's start with the first battalion in order!"
Dong Sandao: "Captain, but the deputy commander came to explain in person, saying that we should seize the time to repair the damaged firearms of their fourth battalion first. Battalion Commander Zhang also brought a list of the various types of damaged firearms in their battalion.
”
Kong Jie took the list and took a look, good guy:
One heavy machine gun, twelve light machine guns, five grenade launchers, 215 Type 38 rifles, bastard box...
...Kong Jie coughed dryly, patted Dong San on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "Dong San, haven't you noticed yet? The work of the repair shop and the logistics department is not easy! The battalion commander of the regiment
, Company commanders, you cannot ignore anyone. If you are a little partial to someone, I tell you, I will blame you when the time comes, which is thankless."
"So, you have to learn to be smart. You have to hold a bowl of water level. It's like repairing a gun in front of you. You should do it in order, one battalion, two battalions, three battalions and four battalions, one by one."
"Can you understand, kid?"
Dong San is a smart man, his mind works very fast. His eyes lit up and he nodded: "Captain, I understand!"
Kong Jie said happily: "Hey, that's right. Tell me, what do you understand?"
Dong San: "Report to the leader, I understand. We need to produce time bombs and new explosive bags for you first, and then repair the firearms.
If you want to repair firearms, you have to repair them in order from the first battalion, second battalion, third battalion, and then to the fourth battalion.
If I really finish repairing the first, second, and third battalions, I will find something else for the workers to do, and I will keep putting off repairing the equipment of these four battalions.
Why? Because it won’t be long before our deputy commander Li becomes a full-time official, and he won’t be able to take these equipment with him by then.
Once it’s repaired, it’ll be yours, Commander!”
Kong Jie paused for a moment and said, "You can teach children."
Dong San: "Hey, leader, you are the best teacher!"
The two looked at each other and laughed together. The collusion was well explained here...
