What Gao Chu and Xu Yue said is probably correct, but the expression is not accurate. Xu Rui is actually planning to divide the troops in the Dameishan Military Division into two types, one is defensive and the other is offensive.
As the name suggests, the main responsibility of the defensive force is the defensive operations of the base area, while the main responsibility of the offensive force is external attack.
As a special forces soldier and an excellent commander who traveled from later generations, Xu Rui understands the truth better than anyone in this era: only offense is the best defense!
Blindly defending will only result in being passively beaten in the end.
Only by fighting out can the enemy be mobilized, the flames of war be carried into the enemy's occupied areas, and the security of the base area better ensured.
Therefore, the Dameishan Military Division must form an offensive mobile force.
This mobile force will not be responsible for the defense of the counties in the base area. Their only mission is to attack, attack, and attack again, using their fierce attacks to disrupt the Japanese raids.
Because of the different combat missions, there will inevitably be a certain degree of inclination in personnel and equipment.
In terms of personnel, the 3,000 veterans captured from the 32nd Army were basically organized into three regiments, the fortress regiment and the guard regiment. It stands to reason that most of these 3,000 veterans are from the Northeast, so they should be incorporated into the Wanzhongshan regiment.
The second regiment, but no, the second regiment of Wanzhongshan did not get a single veteran from the Northeast.
In addition, the new recruits from the county militia have also been given priority to join the third regiment, the fortress regiment and the guard regiment. Now the guard regiment, the fortress regiment and the third regiment have been fully staffed. The first regiment, the second regiment and the independent regiment have all been recruited.
However, the regiment has only been replenished less than half, and it is estimated that it will not be fully replenished until the next batch of militiamen arrive after the year.
In terms of equipment, Xu Rui’s differentiated treatment is even more obvious.
As an offensive force, the firepower delivery must of course be strong enough, so the fortress regiment, guard regiment and third regiment are all equipped with an infantry and artillery battalion. These three infantry and artillery battalions are not artillery battalions in the traditional sense because they are not equipped with traditional
In the sense of artillery, it's a rocket launcher.
Each infantry and artillery battalion has three infantry and artillery companies. Each infantry and artillery company has three infantry and artillery platoons. Each infantry and artillery platoon has two groups. Each group is equipped with a rocket launcher and consists of one shooter and two
The assistant shooters are composed of two ammunition handlers and a commander. Therefore, each infantry and artillery battalion is equipped with eighteen rocket launchers and has a personnel of 125 people.
Although the range of the rocket launcher cannot keep up with the Type 92 infantry artillery, let alone the mountain artillery and field artillery, their mobility is unparalleled. Even the Type 92 infantry artillery, which has always been known for its lightness, is also less mobile in terms of mobility.
Far from comparable to a rocket launcher.
Because the rocket launcher weighs less than twenty kilograms, one person can carry it and run.
However, the Type 92 Infantry Artillery requires at least ten men or two horses to ensure its mobility.
Moreover, compared with artillery such as the Type 92 Infantry Cannon, the rocket launcher has an unparalleled advantage, that is, the rocket launcher can aim straight and can accurately clear the enemy's fire points.
Artillery, however, can only carry out coverage-type damage.
One is point killing, the other is area killing, and the efficiency of firepower utilization is not at the same level at all.
Moreover, such infantry and artillery battalions can be used in a centralized manner, or they can be used in companies, platoons, or groups as units, and can be equipped for corresponding combat units to be used individually. Their use is much more flexible.
Therefore, these three infantry and artillery battalions will become the greatest firepower support for the three main offensive regiments in Dameishan.
However, for now, these three infantry and artillery battalions are just empty frames. Not only are the rocket launchers missing, but even the personnel are still being trained in Niu Dazhuang's artillery regiment.
However, even so, He Guangming was so anxious that he almost jumped.
As soon as he got the inside information, He Guangming hurried back to Meixian and asked Xu Rui for an explanation.
"Captain, I don't want you to be so partial." He Guangming shouted loudly when he saw Xu Rui, "It's enough for the nerdy third regiment to have an infantry and artillery battalion. After all, we are one of the three main regiments.
One, and the performance in this counter-mopping up was really good, I have to admit this, it’s not said.”
Xu Rui continued to chat quietly with Leng Tiefeng, ignoring He Guangming.
He Guangming said to himself: "The Gaochu Fortress Regiment is equipped with an infantry and artillery battalion. I agree, because the Fortress Regiment performed well in this counter-mopping up, especially the Warrior Battalion, which played a decisive role for our Northwest Army.
Tie Guang is a serious soldier brought by me, He Guangming, from the Weihe Plain. He can fight tough battles, so I won't say anything."
After a pause, He Guangming said loudly: "But why should the guard regiment have an infantry and artillery battalion?"
Xu Rui still ignored He Guangming and continued to stand by the simulated sand table and talk quietly to Leng Tiefeng.
He Guangming didn't care whether Xu Rui was listening or not, and continued: "Our regiment is still the first-class main force of the Dameishan Military Division and the pillar, right? But our regiment is not equipped with infantry yet.
Why should the artillery battalion be equipped first before the guard regiment? This makes no sense? It has only been a few days since the guard battalion was upgraded to the guard regiment? How many days has Lao Qiu been the regiment commander?"
Speaking of this, He Guangming was really full of grievances. After all this trouble, he was worse than Qiu Feng, the battalion commander?
When He Guangming finished speaking, Xu Rui's eyes swept over coldly and said: "Is it over? Are you happy to say it?"
After a pause, Xu Rui's tone immediately turned cold, and then said: "I have the nerve to say that I am the main force, and I have the nerve to say that I am the face of the military division. If you guys hadn't dug such a big trap together, you would have lost all your achievements.
Are you going to let the remnants of the Osaka Division run away? Until now, the entire military division is still wiping your butts!"
At this point, Xu Rui knocked the sand table hard with the bamboo pole in his hand, and said to Leng Tiefeng: "Old soldier, come and tell our Commander He Da, what just happened?"
Leng Tiefeng said: "Just now, a village in Fengshu'ao Town, Guanxian County was attacked by a small group of Japanese soldiers. Two fellow villagers were killed, and more than a dozen other fellow villagers were frightened to varying degrees. Moreover, this has been the case in the past three days.
The sixth time I was attacked, I suspect that a wave of broken troops from the Osaka Division rushed to Maple Col Town."
He Guangming's face immediately fell. The defeat of the Osaka Division had become an indelible stain on him.
"Did you hear that? Commander He Da, did you hear that?" Xu Rui said, "Because of your negligence and improper command, more than 10,000 people in the Osaka Division broke out. Except for those who fled back and
Of those we eliminated, there are still at least a thousand people running around in our base area so far!"
He Guangming's head drooped even more, and his chin almost reached his chest.
Xu Rui added: "But what about the security team? From Meixian to Guanxian, from Guanxian to Shanxian, and then from Shanxian back to Meixian, they traveled a lot in vain, but they never cried out in pain, and they never cried out in pain.
I never shouted tired, and more importantly, I completed the combat tasks assigned by the headquarters to the letter, and never made any mistakes!"
He Guangming was still a little dissatisfied and said in a low voice: "If you want to say that you work hard and don't complain, and that you don't make mistakes, Lao Wan's second regiment also worked hard and made no mistakes. Why is it that Lao Wan's second regiment is not equipped with an infantry and artillery battalion?"
, but instead let the security regiment take the lead? Commander, you are just partial."
"There is no need for you to complain to Lao Wan. The reason why I give priority to equipping the Guard Regiment with infantry and artillery battalions instead of equipping them with the Second Regiment is naturally my own reason." Xu Rui said, "As for the reason, I will naturally understand it.
Make it clear to Lao Wan, and there is no need for you to fuss and complain for him."
Wan Zhongshan is more stable than aggressive, so he is more qualified to be the chief officer of the defense force.
Strictly speaking, Wan Zhongshan is actually more suitable to be the leader of the attack force than Qiu Feng, but his arrogance has become a fatal flaw, so Xu Rui decided to use this opportunity to organize the army to dampen his arrogance.
After a pause, Xu Rui continued: "Now that I have finished talking today, I might as well tell you clearly that in my original plan, your group should become one of the three major attack forces, because Lao He
Although you are a simple-minded person, you still have a lot of drive, and you can barely be considered a tiger general."
He Guangming blushed when Xu Rui said it. Is this an exaggeration or derogation?
Xu Rui added: "But in the battle to encircle and annihilate the Osaka Division, I discovered that you have a very fatal weakness. You are too arrogant, arrogant and arrogant. These weaknesses blinded your eyes and made you arrogant.
, I didn’t prepare a plan carefully before the war, so when faced with an unexpected situation, I had no choice but to be blind!”
He Guangming suddenly felt hot all over and wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in.
Xu Rui snorted and added: "So, at the last moment, I added your group to the defense force, but let Lao Qiu's guard group take over your shortcomings. But I can tell you clearly,
This is not a final decision, if you can get rid of these bad habits on your body, I can still consider classifying a regiment as an offensive force."
He Guangming immediately said: "I will change it, I will change it immediately, and I will definitely get rid of these shortcomings."
Xu Rui shook his head and said: "The question of whether to change or not is not just words, you have to take actions."
"We will definitely take action." He Guangming said proudly, "We will definitely use actions to prove that the first regiment is the most powerful offensive force in the Dameishan Military Division. It is correct to classify our first regiment as an offensive force.
Choose, commander, just watch from the headquarters and see how our regiment acts."
"Okay." Xu Rui nodded and said, "I'll watch from the headquarters."
He Guangming stood at attention, then turned around and left in a hurry.
However, compared with when he came, when He Guangming left, he no longer felt angry, but had a little more vigor. He had been awakened by Xu Rui's words.
