Two hundred people, this number is definitely wrong. During the Kuomintang period, a company probably had a hundred people. It probably refers to the full strength of the troops, rather than some troops that are on empty pay, and there are only a few hundred people in a regiment.
Yu Yang's mind turned around and he quickly understood. He secretly took out more than ten yuan and a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and handed it over: "Sir, our Sixty-sixth Regiment is responsible for defending Luodian. We have suffered some battle losses."
It's big, and the war is a bit urgent. Can you please give us more troops? This is just a petty thing and not respectful!"
After finishing speaking, Yu Yang held the hand of the officer from the Logistics Department. The officer weighed the big ocean in his hand twice. The officer from the Logistics Department originally had a business-like face. When he saw Yu Yang bringing things in a sensible manner, he lowered his head and looked down.
Ten yuan a pack of unseen cigarettes and a few French currency, a smile immediately appeared on his face.
"Don't talk like that. They are all serving the party and the country. Since your Sixty-sixth Regiment is in such a difficult situation, I will give you a little more, five hundred people. Don't say that I don't take care of your Sixty-sixth Regiment. This batch of new recruits will not
If there are a thousand people, I will give you half directly!"
Yu Yang nodded immediately, but kept complaining in his heart. These oceans were plundered from the Japanese soldiers. He originally wanted to take them back and collect them. As for the French currency, they were there after he came here. They were probably military pay, from 1937.
The depreciation of legal currency is not too fast, and it is still worth some money.
Taking the officer's approval from the logistics department, Yu Yang continued to walk toward the inner camp. After a while, there was an urgent rally call, and a group of soldiers wearing brand new military uniforms walked out of a dozen temporary large tents.
Unable to see their faces clearly, the officers from the Logistics Department called their names one by one. The soldiers answered that there were five hundred people in total. After the gathering, the officers from the Logistics Department pointed at Yu Yang: "Now you will follow this captain to the Sixth Floor."
Sixteenth Regiment, from now on you will be the soldiers of the Sixty-sixth Regiment!" After saying that, the officer handed the roster to Yu Yang: "There are five hundred people in total, if there is no problem, just sign!"
After the formalities were completed, Yu Yang took this group of recruits to find Hu Lian. As for the mobilization of new recruits, it had nothing to do with Yu Yang. It was what the regiment leader should do. He would wait until the soldiers assigned to his third battalion were under his command.
Do what needs to be done, such as boosting morale, such as mobilizing before war.
The lights in the logistics department were still bright. Yu Yang brought five hundred recruits to the area agreed with Hu Lian. There were no deserters. The people in the logistics department took Yu Yang's money and selected fairly good soldiers for Yu Yang.
At least in the past few minutes, the five hundred recruits did not make much noise. During the march, although it was raining heavily, the queue remained intact, which is very rare in this situation.
During the Anti-Japanese War, the training time for most recruits was insufficient. They often only trained for a month. Some soldiers were sent to combat companies or front-line units as soon as they could shoot.
When Hu Lian saw Yu Yang and the five hundred soldiers behind him, he was stunned for a moment, then gave Yu Yang a thumbs up, walked to Yu Yang and asked in a low voice: "How much did it cost?
"
"Well, more than ten silver dollars and more than two hundred French currency! And a pack of cigarettes!" Reporting truthfully, Hu Lian showed a smile on his face, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and stuffed it into Yu Yang's pocket
: "I'll give you the cigarettes first, and I'll give you the money when I get paid. I don't have any money in my pocket now!"
After Hu Lian finished speaking, he dug into his pocket to indicate that he really had no money. At the same time, he also rated Yu Yang a bit higher. He was able to fight and had a flexible mind. As long as he did not die on the battlefield, his future was limitless.
.
"Everyone listen to my command. Everyone should carry an ammunition box and follow me back to the regiment headquarters. Hurry, hurry, hurry!" Hu Lian pointed to a dozen trucks not far away, all of which contained troops from the 66th Regiment.
Materials.
Yu Yang looked at these trucks with his mouth wide open. When did the Kuomintang become so rich? One regiment had more than a dozen trucks of supplies. Hu Lian saw Yu Yang's surprise and took Yu Yang to a tent and started smoking: "
These are the supplies that have been owed to us in the past few months. They are only given to us now. Your third battalion will give priority to replenishing the troops later. You brought the people. I will give you half. You must defend the eastern part of Luodian.
It is the key to this defensive battle, no matter what method is used, there must be no mistakes!"
Yu Yang nodded solemnly, looked at the supplies, and touched his head: "Tuanzuo, are there any landmines in these supplies?"
"Landmines? There don't seem to be any. What do you want this for?"
"Guanzu, can you get some? If possible, I would like to plant some mines at some important passages to delay the Japanese attack. At the same time, at night, I want to prevent the little Japanese from being caught!"
Hu Lian nodded, thought for a while and then took two deep puffs of cigarette: "I'll look for it for you, but there shouldn't be many. There shouldn't be many in the logistics department of this thing, but there should be a little!"
Half an hour later, Yu Yang followed Hu Lian back to the headquarters of the Sixty-sixth Regiment. Hu Lian finally found two large boxes and more than a hundred mines for Yu Yang. The quantity was not large, but it could be placed in some key locations, and
Yu Yang can also teach soldiers to make some simple trip mines.
This afternoon, Yu Yang was able to fight a positional battle with the Japanese soldiers because the Japanese soldiers had just landed and the large forces were stabilizing the beachhead. Only a small number of troops were attacking the Seventh Company's position. If the Japanese follow-up troops arrived, they would be able to fight with the Japanese
In positional warfare, people basically sacrificed their lives. If he wanted to defend his position, Yu Yang could only find another way and think of some other methods.
After returning to the headquarters, Yu Yang selected half of the soldiers, a total of 250 people, of whom 120 reorganized the seventh company. Liu Youcai was still the deputy company commander, Wang Hao was still the seventh company commander, and Lao Zhao Er
As the platoon leader, John acted alone. In addition, a certain number of veterans were transferred from the Eighth Company and the Ninth Company and mixed into the new Seventh Company to form the backbone of the Seventh Company.
When forming a company, the most important thing is not the soldiers or the commander, but the backbone soldiers of the company, that is, veterans. These veterans will lead the new recruits to grow. The best ratio is one veteran with two or three, at most.
Four, not more than five. If there are more than five, the effect will be discounted. But now in the Seventh Company, one veteran has to lead seven or eight new recruits. There is no way, there are not many veterans in the Seventh Company surviving.
If possible, Yu Yang planned to transfer some veterans from the Eighth Company and the Ninth Company to supplement the Seventh Company, but in the end he did not do so. The Eighth Company and the Ninth Company would sacrifice a lot. If too many veterans were transferred by him, even if new recruits were added,
, the combat effectiveness will also be greatly reduced. If the Seventh Company is handed over to Wang Hao, the fight should not be too bad!
