Li Hao's suggestion not only frightened the instructor Wang Hong, but also frightened the deputy battalion commander Hong Linfeng.
Immediately reminded: "Batalion Commander, I thought that after the main force platoons were expanded into companies, each main force company would only have three main force platoons!"
"In this case, each of our infantry companies only needs to prepare three or four machine guns. The equipment stored in the secret camp will definitely be enough!"
"I didn't think of what you were thinking: the infantry company is directly under a fire squad. In this case, a company needs seven machine guns. Even if we eliminated many Japanese and puppet troops some time ago and seized a lot of equipment, we still can't get so many light weapons.
Machine gun!"
Li Hao didn't think about it before replying: "If you don't have any, then you'll owe it first, and when you have more, you can replenish your troops later!"
"According to my proposal, our infantry company is equipped with three grenade launchers, seven crooked handles, and more than a hundred rifles!"
"After the troops form combat effectiveness, one of our companies can easily kill a Japanese infantry squad on the battlefield."
"Even if we face a full infantry squadron of the Japanese army, our company will still be able to fight back, instead of being defeated at the first touch!"
"Besides, even if we now have enough weapons and ammunition to equip our troops, we still don't have enough qualified soldiers to supplement our troops and equip them with those weapons!"
After saying that, Li Hao stared at Hong Linfeng and continued to ask: "Old Hong, how many prisoners has Dong Xulin mobilized to join us in the past few days, and how many captive soldiers does he still have who have decided to join our Eighth Route Army?"
"After completing the replenishment of the baggage platoon, artillery platoon, firepower platoon, and cavalry platoon, he still has about 160 people left!" Hong Linfeng thought for a moment and answered!
Li Hao immediately made a decision: "In addition to the three platoons fighting outside, the other three main platoons will each add fifty recruits! First, set up the company's direct guard squad, firepower squad, and small artillery squad. How many machine guns and
The grenade can be replenished as many people as possible. The three infantry squads of each main platoon are directly expanded into infantry platoons, ensuring that each infantry squad plus squad leader has seven people and has a certain combat effectiveness!"
Hong Linfeng breathed a sigh of relief and replied: "In this case, those captured soldiers and equipment should be enough!"
"Each infantry company will first provide Japan with a machine gun and two grenade launchers, and the rest will be replenished during the battle later!"
Li Hao immediately responded: "One of the four machine guns will be given to the guard squad, and the remaining three will be given to the fire squad. In this way, in the event of a battle, the four machine guns can be dispersed to each infantry platoon to act alone, or they can be used collectively!"
"The first platoon was expanded into a first company, the second platoon was expanded into a second company, the fourth platoon was expanded into a third company, and the third platoon that was still fighting outside was expanded into an independent company!"
"Lao Hong, you go arrange it!"
Hong Linfeng immediately replied: "Yes, battalion commander!"
"To expand the guard platoon to the guard company, set up the frame first and then add more after the new recruits are trained!" Li Hao continued his analysis.
"The artillery platoon expanded the artillery battery, and it has a mountain artillery platoon with three mountain guns, and two mortar platoons with six mortars!"
"The firepower platoon expanded the firepower company to include two heavy machine gun platoons with six heavy machine guns, and one light machine gun platoon with nine light machine guns!"
Seeing that instructor Wang Hong's mouth had not been closed since he opened his mouth because of this, he immediately reminded him.
"Instructor, you have brought back five instructors. What I mean is that the four main companies and the guard companies must be arranged first. You can arrange who will go to which company!"
"As for the instructors of the other companies, if there are no ready-made instructors, you can only train them yourself. For all cadres above the platoon in the company, you can arrange instructors for whomever you like!"
"The other one is Dong Xulin!"
"Although he is not a professional political cadre, his ability in political work is not bad at all. He mobilized so many captive soldiers in the entire battalion by himself!"
"Instructor, please talk to him. I want him to be your deputy and also serve as the instructor of the new recruit company. He will be responsible for the ideological mobilization of all captured soldiers and recruits in the entire battalion!"
Wang Hong reacted immediately: "Don't worry, battalion commander, I will make arrangements soon!"
At the military division headquarters, the chief of staff walked quickly to the commander with a telegram in his hand!
"Commander, urgent call from the military region!"
"A small Japanese army is marching towards Lingqiu in a hurry. The target should be us. The military region reminds us to be prepared!"
"How many people!" The commander frowned suddenly!
"The total force exceeds 1,300 people, including a mountain artillery squadron, a mortar squadron, a heavy machine gun squadron, and a cavalry squadron. They are all little devils!"
The commander's brows furrowed even deeper at this time.
"In order to kill us, the little devil spent a lot of money!"
"There is no doubt that they are reinforcing the Watanabe Brigade in Lingqiu County!"
"With these reinforcements, the total strength of the Watanabe Brigade has increased to more than 2,000 people. They are well-equipped, have sufficient ammunition, and they are all little Japs!"
The chief of staff also frowned: "In this case, the pressure on the independent battalion will be great!"
"Although they have just been expanded into a battalion, time is limited, and they must still be as strong as a company now!"
"Also, the previous battle with the Japs almost completely changed the soldiers of the Independent Battalion. Although a large number of captured soldiers were replenished immediately, the combat effectiveness must have been greatly affected and is not as good as before!"
The commander frowned and ordered: "Now we have two things to do!"
"First, immediately forward the original text of this intelligence to the Independence Battalion, and ask the Independence Battalion to prepare for battle!"
"Finally, I would like to add that Comrade Li Hao has the final decision-making power when it comes to combat operations in the Independent Battalion!"
"The second thing is, let's act as soon as possible!"
"With the weapons and ammunition sent by the independent battalion, we will have the capital to fight against the Japs!"
"We must find a fighter plane as soon as possible, severely damage one of the Japanese and puppet troops, and force the Japanese to retreat!"
"As long as the two Japs in the base area retreat, no matter how powerful the Watanabe Brigade in Lingqiu City is, they will not penetrate deep into our base area alone!"
"I'm going to send a telegram now!" the chief of staff replied quickly.
It was already dark when Li Hao received the emergency call from the military division.
One day of understanding gave instructor Wang Hong a better understanding of the independent camp family.
The independent battalion has a very strong foundation and good development potential. As long as there is time, even three months, the independent battalion can develop into the main battalion with the strongest combat effectiveness in the entire first division.
At this moment, he was sitting in front of Li Hao, discussing his opinions on the development of the independent camp face to face.
As soon as he opened his mouth, Zhou Liang, deputy commander of the communications platoon, rushed over: "Battal Commander, there is an urgent call from the military district. Please forward a message from the military district!"
Li Hao smiled bitterly and replied: "Instructor, if I guessed correctly, the little devil has started to take action!"
"Time is so important to our independent camp, but the little devil refuses to give us time, not even for half a month!"
After quickly reading the telegram, the expression on his face turned solemn, and he continued.
"The Watanabe Brigade has just stopped and was trapped by us in Lingqiu. The Japanese army then sent more than a thousand people, and they were all little Japs. This is not giving our independent battalion a chance to breathe!"
"So many Japanese!" Wang Hong gasped and shouted.
His face became heavy and he stared at the map for a long time without saying a word!
