Just when Li Yunlong cursed Kong Jie because he was worried that he would not be able to reach Li Jiapo to beat up the Yamazaki Brigade.
Kong Jie is near Xinzhuang at the moment.
What are you doing?
Expand the army and expand the Fourth Battalion of the Independent Regiment. This is the true Fourth Battalion of the Independent Regiment, not the fourth battalion under Li Yunlong.
Kong Jie has been working on expanding the Fourth Battalion of the Independent Regiment for several days. In the past few days, Li Yunlong happened to be taking his team to fight guerrillas outside the station, so he didn't know about it yet.
As for the expanded fourth battalion, some of them are comrades from the local army, that is, comrades from the local army who have conducted raids with the independent regiment not long ago.
When these comrades heard that Kong Jie wanted to expand the size of the independent regiment and expand the fourth battalion, they rushed over without saying a word, and even squeezed their heads out.
Nowadays, the popularity of the Independent Regiment in the local army cannot be overshadowed. Especially during the last raid, the Independent Regiment took great care of its comrades in the local army and provided them with plenty of guns and ammunition.
In addition, Kong Jie led the independent regiment and gained a reputation fighting the Japanese army along the way.
Kong Jie had just revealed his intention to expand the Fourth Battalion, and comrades from the local army who came from all around Yangquan started to flock to him.
The other group is Xinzhuang and the militia backbones in the villages surrounding the independent regiment. They are also the group of militiamen who have been trained for the longest time under the guidance of the militia military training manual written by Kong Jie and Zhao Gang.
Through studying the militia military training manual, these militiamen have a solid grasp of military basics, even as good as those of local army comrades.
For example, Zhao San, the militia captain of Xinzhuang, after hearing that Kong Jie was going to expand the Fourth Battalion of the Independent Regiment, he immediately brought the key members of the Xinzhuang Militia Brigade.
"Zhao San, you just brought the militia backbone here. What are you going to do about the village's defense?"
Kong Jie was originally a little worried.
Zhao San smiled and said: "Captain, don't worry! After the expansion of the village militia, we have been conducting military training for the newly joined militia. The successors have already been in place, and we are not missing. Besides, we are also
We have retained some key personnel and a new batch of militia brigades will be trained soon, so it will be fine."
In this way, Kong Jie nodded and agreed. After Zhao San, the former militia captain, joined the Fourth Battalion of the Independent Regiment, he was appointed deputy commander of the 12th Company.
The commander of the fourth battalion is former deputy battalion commander of the second battalion, Lei Dasheng.
Because there were already prepared soldiers, the fourth battalion was formed very quickly, and its strength far exceeded Kong Jie's expectations.
Originally, Kong Jie thought that after the fourth battalion was expanded, it would be good to have three to four hundred people.
But after the local army comrades and militia backbones enthusiastically signed up to participate, in just a few days, a team of more than 800 people was formed.
If we add the original three battalions of the Independent Regiment to this, the strength of the Independent Regiment will also exceed the 2,000-man mark.
In terms of military strength, we are almost catching up with the main regiments like the 771st and 772nd Regiments.
With so many additional troops suddenly appearing in other regiments, under normal circumstances, the regiment leaders would have a headache. Food would be a problem, let alone where to find the equipment for these more than 800 soldiers.
Kong Jie smiled brightly.
Why? Because we, Kong Jie, are Han Xin’s troops, the more the merrier!
Not to mention that these more than 800 comrades are not military novices without any military literacy. They are warriors tempered in real combat.
Even those militia comrades were trained in the militia military training manual, as well as in actual combat in numerous raids.
In addition, these comrades rushed over to join the Fourth Battalion of the Independent Regiment. They did not come empty-handed, most of them brought guns.
All Kong Jie, the regiment leader, needs to solve is everyone’s ammunition problem.
The fact is that even Kong Jie himself is not sure how rich the independent group's current wealth is. He probably has to ask Dong San, the head of the logistics department, about this. That kid has a clear idea.
After the Fourth Battalion of the Independent Regiment was expanded, the regiment leader Kong Jie directly used facts to tell the soldiers of the Fourth Battalion what generosity is.
There are more than 800 soldiers in the fourth battalion, one by one. As long as they don’t have guns in their hands, they will all be equipped with new guns.
All soldiers will be given fifteen bullets and two grenades each, and cadres above the platoon level will be given a shell gun.
In Kong Jie's words: "The ammunition distributed to you actually does not meet the per capita ammunition distribution standard of our independent regiment. This is because you have just joined the Fourth Battalion and I don't know your actual situation yet." p>
"In our independent group, we talk about organization and discipline, but we also need to talk about the rules of our independent group. What rules are they?"
"Simple, those who are capable of killing Japanese soldiers should be equipped with weapons and ammunition first."
"Then everyone must ask, what does it mean to be capable of killing Japanese soldiers?"
"It's easy to say, no matter how busy our independent regiment is, even if the front line is fighting the Japanese, as long as we have time, the regiment's military training will not stop."
"According to the training and assessment standards issued by the regiment headquarters, those who reach the level of special shooters will be issued an additional twenty bullets, and those who reach the level of special shooters will be issued six additional grenades. They will be distributed before the war and will be replenished at any time after the battle.
”
"In addition, these comrades who have reached the standards of special shooters, special pitchers, etc. have priority in using remaining ammunition. What does this mean? If there is insufficient ammunition during the battle, and these special comrades run out of ammunition, other comrades will
You must give priority to allocating your own ammunition for them to use."
"So, if you are capable, you can have so much ammunition that you can't even carry it on your back. If you are incompetent, huh, just work as an ammunition hand in the back!"
After Kong Jie finished speaking, the soldiers of the fourth battalion felt the extraordinariness of the Independent Regiment.
On the one hand, I feel the excitement and expectation of competition to hone military skills and kill Japanese enemies.
The blood seems to be boiling.
With such a regiment and such a regimental leader, do you still have to worry that there will be no Japanese to kill you?

Li Jiapo.
The monk finally led the comrades of the security company to the place. In order to attract the Japanese, everyone was really tired.
Not far away, you can see the only gentle slope to the south that can reach Lijiapo. The monk gave the order without hesitation, "Brothers, go up to Lijiapo. The battlefield where we finally have a decisive battle with the little devil has arrived."
After that, the monk led the two platoons of the guard company and quickly passed through the relatively gentle southern slope of Lijiapo and climbed to the Lijiapo hill.
The guard post arranged by the third platoon leader discovered the monk and his party early in the morning. After the monk led the other two platoons to Lijiapo, the third platoon leader hurriedly came to report:
"Reporting to the company commander, the third platoon has successfully completed its mission in accordance with your order, and the defenses in the central area of Lijiapo have been completed."
The monk was overjoyed and said: "That's great. His stupid little devil has chased us all the way. Now with the help of Lijiapo's defenses, we will definitely kill him."
The third platoon leader said again: "Company commander, the commando comrades are also here."
"Oh, Ye Min and the others are here? Where are they? Why did they appear here and just meet you?"
The third platoon leader said: "The commando team was sent by the regiment commander. Shortly after we arrived at Lijiapo, we were building fortifications, and the commando team arrived."
After saying that, the third platoon leader stood on the edge of Lijiapo, pointed to a smaller hill four to five hundred meters away, and said, "Company commander, the commando team is ambushing on that hillside. They have sniper rifles in their hands."
, can provide us with long-range fire cover."
"In addition, the commando team seemed to be well prepared. After arriving, they immediately carried out a series of soil work."
The third platoon leader told Monk Wei what happened after he rushed the commando team.
The monk looked at the gentler southern slope just below his feet and said with emotion: "I understand, it turns out that this is the trump card mentioned by the group leader!"
