Of course, in order to provide these people with something to bathe in, we had to hire craftsmen who made tiles, and then we made 200 large water tanks ourselves. This large water tank is a good thing, it can hold water.
, and can also take a bath. After little Japan came to China, he liked to use this thing to take a bath. There are still some benefits to a large water tank.
But two hundred large water tanks cannot be burned in one or two times. They will be used in the future anyway, so just send them in batches. The current military salary is given by the National Government. It is not free of charge. You will not pay
The gun and everything else were given to me. The craftsman was easy to ask, and with a few pointers I could get a few silver dollars. Who wouldn't want to do this job?
"We bought and scraped together some from nearby fellow villagers, but we only have more than 40 large tanks. Do you think that's enough?"
"Take someone to prepare for a bath. It's such a strong smell that you can smell it from three miles away in the field."
Everyone is actually quite willing to take a bath, but the place is really short of water. Drilling wells sometimes doesn't solve the problem, because the water in the wells may not always be drinkable. If you want to drink water, you have to go several miles away.
Go fetch water to eat.
"But none of the brothers want to carry water. They think it's too far."
"Isn't there a few bitter wells in that abandoned village nearby? If you go to pick up the water from the bitter wells and bathe, can't you take a bath if you can't eat it?"
There are too many bitter wells in this place, and there are several nearby. Usually the water can only be used for washing clothes. These chores make me not look like an official, but like a principal, carrying a hand
The next group of ignorant students learn slowly.
"What's going on with the Japs nearby?"
"The Japs have been fine recently. The railway lines are heavily guarded. There are not many Japs stationed in the county, and they do not act easily. Occasionally they will go to the village in groups to rob things or even kill people. At least two hundred troops will be dispatched at one time."
"They seem to be quite cautious. How many villages have been affected?"
Han Cheng now needs to find out their personnel, equipment and numbers, and begin to explore their tactics and tactics. More importantly, he needs to be familiar with the opponent's combat methods and then develop them.
"There were three in total. One of them was completely killed and there was no one left. A battalion from the regiment rushed over and restrained all the fellow villagers."
"Well, our group hasn't had a fight with the Japanese yet, right?"
"We have already fought. We suffered heavy losses. The second battalion was almost wiped out."
Victory is not without cost, at least in the early stages of the battle, everyone is groping.
"Where's the leader?"
"The regiment leader suppressed the news. They feel that such a record should not be reported, so they are discussing a solution with the political commissar."
"What kind of establishment did they attack? How come they were all wiped out?"
"They said they fought against half the squadron, and then they couldn't beat them. If the first battalion hadn't happened to come over, they might have really defeated them all."
Han Cheng shook his head. He didn't even dare to touch his current strength. They were really brave. Who can be 100% sure if they haven't experienced the battlefield in person?
"What is the specific reason?"
"In fact, there were not many Japs who occupied the county town. Some were dozens, some were more than a dozen. They wanted to pick weak persimmons, but who knew that a squadron that had retreated from the front line came to the county town, saying it was a squadron, fighting
Only half of the squadron was left. And then, that's what happened."
Han Cheng felt that there was still room for manipulation, such as the transportation team delivering supplies to the front line. Even if they snatched one, it would still be a piece of fat.
"Get me all the people with guns. Except for leaving some defensive positions, the others will come with me to rob the road!"
The battle against the Japanese army should also start on our side, but we certainly cannot pursue total annihilation, but only partial annihilation.
"Jie Dao? We have no information?"
"Why don't you hurry up and check it out? You are a battalion commander who doesn't know how to fight. I supply you with thousands of bullets every day. In addition to making bullets for you in the room all day long, I am also responsible for your daily affairs and fighting.
You can take care of this matter."
Combat is actually not Han Cheng's strong point, but this time he wants to take the initiative, and Han Cheng also begins to spend money, and transfers a large number of bullets from the warehouse to them. Because this is the first official battle with the Japanese army, the number of bullets
There must be more, if you can do it without bayonets, don't fight with bayonets.
"This can definitely be done, don't worry."
"Okay, you go and investigate. Remember to pick the weak ones. Don't be like the Second Battalion and almost lose yourself."
Han Cheng is not professional when it comes to fighting, otherwise he can only act as a staff officer, and he has to find dedicated warfighters to carry out the war.
"What about the political commissar?"
"Don't worry about this. I'll go talk to the political commissar. But the soldiers under your command should be trained more quickly. I hope you will have as many soldiers as you have when you leave and when you come back!"
The first and second battalions have also taken action, and the third battalion must also take action, otherwise there will be some gossip in the regiment. If we just talk about it in the regiment, we are most afraid that they will upload it, which will have a bad influence.
Feeding bullets to soldiers is a long-term job. In fact, the detection of cartridge cases and the installation of primers can be entrusted to the soldiers. At least under Han Cheng's training, they have become very proficient in these links. Regarding the amount of gunpowder,
The installation of warheads and warheads cannot be left to the soldiers for the time being, because their main task is to fight.
"Comrade Political Commissar, oh, the regiment leader is also here. I just have something to ask for permission. I am going to ask the Third Battalion to fight against the Japanese. The specific goal is to find lone Japanese and Japanese teams. I hope you can approve it.
one time."
Asking for instructions is the fastest way for Han Cheng to learn, because whether he agrees or not depends on his superiors. If his superiors disagree, he can just continue shooting.
"I think it's okay. The Second Battalion has suffered heavy losses and won't be able to fight in the near future. It would also be good for the Third Battalion to take over from the Second Battalion to harass the rear. By the way, we can recruit some people from the local area and train them into qualified soldiers."
"Well, that's what I think too. I'll just do as you say."
The regimental commander had no objections. The news of such a huge loss to the army could not be concealed at all. This was a blow to morale. Failure is sometimes like a poison that is deadly enough, causing the whole body to slowly
It hardens and then dies. The war has just begun, and there will be no shortage of such failures. It is too difficult to rely on others' victory to bring hope to oneself.
Walking out of the regiment, Han Cheng also shook his head for a while. He didn't know whether he could be as smooth as now in the future. The troops he led had already participated in the war, and sacrifices were inevitable. The more fierce the resistance, the greater the blow.
.
Involved in the whirlpool of war, there is no feeling of family and country, no killing for life, and it is just life and death on the battlefield. Of course people are afraid of death, and they are even more afraid that future generations will continue this cruel war.
