Chapter three hundred and thirty second sophisticated equipment
As soon as Yang Ling sent off brigade commander Zhou Zhidao and his party, Liu Yidao and others who were warming themselves by the fire in the yard came over excitedly.
The dilapidated house was not soundproofed. They could hear clearly what the brigade commander Zhou Zhidao wanted to promote Yang Ling to be the deputy commander of the 301st Regiment.
Many of Liu Yidao and the others were old brothers who had followed Yang Ling during the Battle of Shanghai. When they heard that Yang Ling was promoted, they were naturally very happy.
"Congratulations to our battalion commander, Gao Gao, for being promoted to deputy regimental commander. From now on, we will have to call the group leader, group leader. Now you have to treat the brothers to a drink." Liu Yidao laughed playfully and came over to ask for a drink.
Qin Shou asked eagerly: "Tuanzu, you see that you have been promoted, but you can't forget your brothers."
"What are you talking about? As long as you follow our group and work hard, won't the group treat you badly?"
The old smoker smoked dry cigarettes continuously, with a smile on his wrinkled face.
"I heard you all clearly, follow the group and work hard from now on!" Liu Yidao turned his head and shouted to the brothers who were making noises around him, with a sense of joy in his tone.
"Follow the group to the death!" The brothers also cheered and cheered. After eating and drinking, everyone became energetic again.
"Okay, stop making trouble. Please don't make any noise in this group from now on. I am only the temporary deputy commander. The real person is still the commander of the third battalion. You should call me the battalion commander."
Yang Ling will not get carried away just because brigade commander Zhou Zhidao gave him a temporary deputy commander. In the 74th Army, which is full of talents, he is not ranked at all. If he wants to gain the respect and recognition of others, he must use his military exploits to speak for himself.
"It's not appropriate to continue calling him the battalion commander. Let's call him the deputy regimental commander." Lao Yanqiang suggested.
"That's up to you, but I want to emphasize one thing clearly to you. We are new here. Although I am temporarily acting as the deputy of the 301st Regiment, please don't cause trouble for me. Please keep a low profile."
Liu Yidao chuckled: "Deputy leader, don't worry about this, we will never cause you any trouble."
Yang Ling and the others were reorganized into the 301st Regiment of the 151st Brigade. The original temporary designation of the guerrilla battalion was naturally revoked. Being able to temporarily act as deputy commander was beyond Yang Ling's expectations, but it was not so exciting that he could not sleep.
It is said that the bigger an officer is, the bigger the responsibility he has to bear. When I was a company platoon leader, I had only one hundred and ten brothers under my command. I could not see you without looking up, so it was easy to manage and command smoothly.
However, Yang Ling was suddenly appointed as the deputy commander and assisted the commander in managing a regiment. Yang Ling was really inexperienced. If he was asked to lead an elite squad in combat, he would be good at it. However, for this regiment-level command operation, he still had to cross the river by feeling the stones.
Learn as you go.
Now there are only a few staff officers left in the regiment-level headquarters of the 301st Regiment. The acting regiment commander is still recuperating in the field hospital. The three subordinate battalions have been beaten until only one battalion commander Lu Xing is left to take charge of the work. The company-level officers have suffered four casualties.
Third, be neither fearful nor cruel.
Brigadier Zhou Zhidao was very fast. In the afternoon of the same day, he received the appointment letter and served as the battalion commander and acting deputy commander of the third battalion of the 301st regiment. Along with it, more than a dozen military vehicles were sent to supplement the supplies of their third battalion.
equipment.
"Congratulations, Vice-Captain Yang. I won't disturb you any more and leave now. You can do your work first."
After the lieutenant colonel staff officer responsible for delivering the letter of appointment handed over everything, he was about to say goodbye and leave.
"Let's go slowly. When I'm done, I'll treat my brother to a drink." Yang Ling didn't try to persuade him to stay.
"Deputy Commander Yang is very polite. If you need anything in the future, feel free to say hello." The lieutenant colonel staff officer was also very kind.
Yang Ling turned to Qin Shou, who was climbing onto the military vehicle, and shouted, "Old Qin, see you off."
Qin Shou was so frightened that he hurried over to send the lieutenant colonel and staff away.
"Deputy regimental commander, what a good thing." As soon as the lieutenant colonel staff left, Liu Yidao jumped out of the military vehicle, holding a brand new 79 rifle in his hand.
Although the 74th Army has only been established for a short period of time, it has demonstrated its bloody prowess with the momentum of a newborn calf on the battlefields of Shanghai and Nanjing, which is impressive.
This time we evacuated along the Jinpu Line to Bengbu for replenishment and containment, and these weapons and equipment were sent here as a priority.
"My dear, if we had this equipment in Shanghai, what would we be afraid of?"
Wang Huzi also climbed onto the military vehicle and pried open the wooden boxes filled with weapons and ammunition. The brand-new firearms were all shiny and it was very exciting to see them.
"Brother Zhou, please help me with the inventory." Yang Ling took the list of supplies and asked Lao Yanqiang to help with the inventory.
The old smoker knocked his dry pipe on the steps, shook out the crumbs and put it away.
He came over and said with a smile: "Deputy leader, I used to be older than you, so you called me Brother Zhou and I answered. But now that you are the deputy leader, calling me Brother Zhou again is inconsistent with your status.
, please don’t bark again.”
"Brother Zhou, you can't say that. Although I have been promoted, I have not changed as a person. We are still brothers. I think it was you who promoted me to the deputy company commander from the battalion commander."
Lao Yanqiang hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Now is not the same as before. You are a commander now. A commander must act like a commander. If you call me Brother Zhou again, you will lose your majesty and it will be difficult to lead troops. Besides,
I can’t bear it either.”
"From now on, just like them, call me Lao Yanqiang. Anyway, I'm used to it and it's fine with me." Lao Yanqiang said stubbornly.
When Yang Ling saw Lao Yanqiang insisting, he shook his head helplessly: "Then I will call you Lao Yanqiang from now on."
The 74th Army fought well on the battlefield and was considered a central army. Therefore, compared with Yang Ling and his previous troops, the equipment they received was in the sky and on the ground.
In addition to hundreds of brand-new 79 rifles made in imitation of Germany, what was sent this time was thirty Czech light machine guns, enough for each infantry squad to equip one with some left over. This kind of firepower was no match for the Japanese army.
Not inferior.
Moreover, in addition to these numerous Czech light machine guns, there is also a 20mm machine gun and an 81 mortar.
The weapons are all brand new, and the ammunition is also in boxes and boxes, with at least two basic numbers. These shiny weapons and ammunition make these brothers from the unknown troops drool. They can’t bear to put them down after they get them. They praise them with tsk-tsk.
Endless.
In the past, when they saw the Central Army's troops well-equipped, they could only envy and envy them, but now they have become the Central Army. With these admirable equipment, they are extremely grateful to Yang Ling. If it weren't for Yang Ling, I'm afraid they would still be there.
I'm fighting a kid with an old muff.
In addition to cartloads of weapons, the items that had been repaired included squeaking German steel helmets, leather backpacks, raincoats, military blankets, water bottles, ration bags, and polished bayonets, all in one set.
Come down.
"Let's also be rich locals for once." Liu Yidao held the shining bayonet, grinning from ear to ear.
"Don't be stunned. The cooking class is boiling water and everyone should take a shower and change clothes!"
Looking at these complete sets of equipment, Yang Ling was also happy. With these equipments, he would not be as miserable as before when he met the little devil, and he would also have a chance to take revenge.
