So many weapons and ammunition can definitely be described as astronomical to him.
In the past, he was so poor that several people shared a rifle.
Now that I suddenly face so many weapons and ammunition, I feel like I am getting rich from a pie in the sky, and my first reaction is how much I can get from these seizures!
Li Hao saw Peng Yunfeng's inner thoughts at a glance, hesitated and said, "I just said that the reason why this battle was won was indispensable to Battalion Commander Peng's battalion."
"So, our independent battalion cannot keep these trophies for ourselves, at least half should belong to the first battalion!"
"I have a distribution plan here: In order to ensure the uniformity of weapon calibers, all the 79-caliber rifles and bullets seized in this battle will be given to the first battalion. The heavy machine guns will be divided into ten, the mortars will be divided into ten, and the light machine guns will be divided into three
Ten guns, twenty grenade launchers!"
"Each mortar is equipped with fifty rounds of shells, each heavy machine gun is equipped with two thousand rounds of ammunition, each light machine gun is equipped with five hundred rounds of ammunition, and another two thousand grenades and hand grenades are allocated!"
Hong Linfeng, who was standing nearby, was anxious at that time.
All the 79-caliber rifles were given to the first battalion, and he had no objection at all.
But those light and heavy machine guns and mortars were also given, and more than two-thirds of all captured were given directly. He couldn't figure this out anyway, and subconsciously wanted to refute!
But as soon as the words came to his lips, before he could say them out, Li Hao glared back.
Peng Yunfeng was also frightened. In his initial thoughts, the First Battalion was a guest army and was ordered to perform tasks. The Independent Battalion was the host. It would be good if he could get half of the weapons and ammunition that Li Hao just mentioned.
But the result was exactly the opposite. He actually gave himself most of the captured weapons and ammunition, especially the heavy weapons!
Just when he was racking his brains and couldn't figure out why, Li Hao spoke again: "Battle Commander Peng, the reason why I gave you so many weapons and ammunition, I actually have my own little thoughts. I hope you, Commander Peng, will
I can agree!”
"The Independence Battalion is about to expand into an Independent Regiment and needs a large number of new recruits and veterans. I will not give them to you the more than 800 prisoners we captured in this battle. They will all stay in the Independence Battalion."
"no problem!"
Peng Yunfeng affirmed without thinking about it!
They are not an independent battalion, they only guard such a large base area in a county!
The base area of the first division is too large. The second brigade alone has several counties under its jurisdiction. As long as they are willing, they can recruit thousands of new soldiers at will, so he does not like these puppet prisoners at all.
Li Hao continued: "There are also those seriously injured soldiers of yours, Battalion Commander Peng!"
"If I remember correctly, there are 48 people in total, including five old Red Army soldiers. I hope you, Commander Peng, can part ways with them and keep them in the Independence Camp!"
"The expansion of the independent battalion into the independent regiment not only requires a large number of recruits, but also requires a large number of veterans to serve as grassroots cadres, especially political cadres. This has always been a shortcoming of our independent regiment, and those five old Red Army soldiers are the best candidates to be instructors.
, just can help me solve this problem!"
This time Peng Yunfeng hesitated!
The army is expanding too fast, and veterans are also very important to him.
After thinking for a long time, he made a decision: "I agree, but I also have a request!"
"In addition to those seriously wounded, I also want to exchange four mortars and four heavy machine guns from the independent regiment for two mountain cannons!"
"Captain Li, you don't know that the entire Second Battalion doesn't have a single offensive artillery piece. When encountering the bunkers and gun towers of the Japanese and puppet troops, they can only organize troops to blast them and use their lives to fill them!"
"In the past, in order to take down a blockhouse, we had to organize at least a platoon of suicide squads to rush up, and we might not even be able to send the explosives for demolition up there!"
"If we can have two mountain guns and form a mountain gun platoon, when faced with strong fortifications such as gun towers and bunkers, the troops will not have to sacrifice the lives of soldiers. They can be destroyed with one shot."
"Then I'll divide you into two more mountain cannons, each with one hundred rounds of shells!" Li Hao made a decision quickly!
"As for the four mortars and four heavy machine guns, keep them for yourself!"
After the first battalion left Hongquan Village with dozens of carts, Hong Linfeng finally couldn't help but asked: "Commander, you gave all the weapons and ammunition to Commander Peng, so how about we expand the weapons of the independent regiment?"
solve!"
"Without weapons, even if we call ourselves an independent group, we are just a showy group that is useless!"
Political Commissar Wang Hong also frowned and looked at Li Hao in confusion, wanting an explanation!
Li Hao did not answer the question, but asked with a serious face: "Political Commissar, minus the tens of thousands of 65-caliber bullets just given to Battalion Commander Peng, how many rounds do we have in total after the inventory plus the ones just seized?"
"Three hundred and eighty thousand rounds!"
Wang Hong didn't hesitate and answered as if he were a treasure trove.
Li Hao nodded and continued: "Three hundred and eighty thousand rounds may seem like a lot, but it's not very useful in a real battle!"
"In this battle, the battalion of the independent battalion commander Gabon used hundreds of thousands of rounds. This was only used in four days! If this battle lasted for half a month, 380,000 rounds of ammunition would have been used
It will definitely be used up!"
"You know, there is a precondition for the hypothesis I mentioned, that is, the existing equipment of the independent battalion remains unchanged!"
"If we equip our troops with all the light and heavy machine guns and mortars we just assigned to Battalion Commander Peng, tell me, political commissar, how long can we last on the battlefield with 380,000 rounds of ammunition?"
Wang Hong seemed to understand and replied with a serious face: "It can last up to ten days. If the combat intensity is very high, it may not even last seven days!"
"Well said!"
Li Hao affirmed, his face becoming more serious than ever before.
"Today's war is different from the cold weapon era. In addition to equipment, troops, and combat effectiveness of the troops, we also have logistics!"
"Moreover, logistics plays an increasingly important role in winning or losing a battle. Our level is now getting higher and higher, and we have more and more troops under our command. We can no longer just think about it all day long as we did before.
How to obtain equipment for the troops and expand the troops, we need to think more about whether our independent regiment can support so many troops and light and heavy weapons with the current capital!"
"If you can't feed them and don't have enough ammunition, those light and heavy machine guns and mortars on the battlefield may not be as useful as a 38-meter gun!"
After all, it is still a problem, and it is a problem that the independent regiment has encountered before. The foundation is too weak. Even if the independent battalion expands the independent regiment, it still cannot afford so many light and heavy weapons!
Hong Linfeng shouted with a look of unwillingness: "If this is the case, then the expansion of our independent battalion and the independent regiment is not the same as the expansion of the independent regiment!"
"Heavy weapons are still so heavy. At most, we can increase our troops!"
Li Hao did not deny it and replied with a serious face: "We will put as much rice as there is in the pot!"
"As for heavy weapons, they will definitely increase, but not too much. Otherwise, the ammunition they consume in each battle will bring down the troops!"
"Unless one day we have the ability to produce ammunition ourselves, and given the current predicament that all ammunition is captured, the troops can equip as many machine guns as they want, and I promise not to stop it!"
