The Second Regiment of the Military Division is stationed here. Ten days ago, this was the station of the Second Brigade. A few days ago, the army received a reorganization order, and the Second Brigade was officially reorganized into the Second Regiment of the Military Division.
The guard rushed to the headquarters as if on stimulants. Before anyone could enter, the excited voice reached the ears of the regiment leader!
"Commander... Commander Peng of the First Battalion is back, and they brought dozens of cartloads of stuff!"
The regiment leader stood up from his seat and walked outside the headquarters.
A few days ago, he received the news that the Independent Battalion had won the counter-mopping operation, completely annihilated the Japanese and puppet mopping up troops, and that the Independent Battalion had expanded into an independent regiment!
As a veteran regiment commander of the military division, he witnessed with his own eyes the entire process of Li Hao's promotion from company commander to regiment commander within one year. It was impossible not to envy Li Hao's rocket-like promotion speed!
But he was not jealous. Li Hao's military exploits were there, and he deserved to be promoted to captain.
Besides, according to the commander, it won't be long before his second regiment will be expanded into a second brigade. However, the opportunity is not ripe yet, and he has not issued an order for fear of causing a backlash in Chongqing.
But the commander has secretly ordered the three regiments to expand their troops more than once!
Now the Second Regiment has expanded from the initial four battalions to six battalions, with a total strength of nearly 3,000 men.
But there is a problem, which is also a problem faced by all the Eighth Route Army: too few weapons!
In addition to the three main battalions, the three newly established battalions have several soldiers with one rifle!
As for the light and heavy machine guns, there are even fewer. Each battalion only has one crooked gun to support the appearance, and the ammunition is even more pitiful!
So these days, he has been looking forward to Peng Yunfeng coming back soon and bringing more weapons to solve the urgent needs of the Second Regiment.
But he also has a worry. The expansion of the independent battalion and the independent regiment will also require a large amount of weapons and equipment!
Although they wiped out all the Japanese and puppet troops, the battle was attrition, and the equipment captured in the end would definitely not be too much!
If the independent regiment left most of its weapons to expand its troops, then one battalion would certainly not be able to bring back too many weapons.
The mystery of how many weapons and equipment the first battalion brought back is now about to be officially revealed. As the head of the second regiment, the commander has to be anxious!
"Hello, Captain!"
As soon as Peng Yunfeng reached the entrance of the village where he was stationed, he saw the group leader rushing towards him. He quickly saluted and reported!
"Okay, as long as you're not injured!" the team leader replied, patting Peng Yunfeng on the shoulder.
But after seeing that a large number of troops were missing behind Peng Yunfeng, his face became obviously solemn: "Why are there so many fewer troops? Are there many casualties?"
Peng Yunfeng quickly reported: "More than 140 people died, and there were more than 40 seriously injured people. I made the decision without authorization and left them in the independent regiment. Please punish the regiment leader!"
The regiment leader knew that Peng Yunfeng could not leave dozens of seriously wounded soldiers without any reason, so he did not speak immediately, but pointed to the large vehicle at the rear of the army and asked: "What is on the vehicle? Why are there so many large vehicles?"
A flash of excitement flashed across Peng Yunfeng's face and he replied: "Captain, the above things are too important, can you go to the regiment headquarters and report again!"
Inside the regiment headquarters, the regiment leader held a list in his hand and read it almost three times without putting it down. His face was full of shock!
After a long time, he asked Peng Yunfeng: "Did you really bring back so many weapons on the list?"
Peng Yunfeng answered with certainty: "It should actually be more than this!"
"After the battle, the troops directly replenished the lost ammunition on the battlefield. Now each soldier in the first battalion carries 120 rounds of ammunition and three grenades, and each machine gun is equipped with 500 rounds of ammunition! If
Counting these ammunition, there should be 40,000 rounds of ammunition left!"
"There are more grenades and hand grenades than two thousand!"
"There are also seventy-nine bullets, many of which are packed in bullet belts. There is no detailed statistics, but there must be only a lot more!"
"Hiss, hiss..."
The group leader took a breath and shouted: "So many?"
"I originally thought it would be good if you could bring back two to three hundred rifles. We will just keep them ourselves to supplement the three newly expanded battalions."
"I didn't expect you to bring back so many!"
"There is also Li Hao from the Independent Group, he is too generous!"
"It's enough to send rifles, but why are we also sending light and heavy machine guns and mortars, and so many at once!"
After Peng Yunfeng saw the equipment level of the Independent Regiment, his courage and ambition became stronger. He bit the bullet and suggested: "Captain, it is a bit much, but our second regiment can still eat it!"
"How about we keep all this equipment? With this batch of equipment, not only do we have the weapons for the three new battalions, we can also form two more battalions, and we can also form an artillery company and a heavy machine gun company.
!”
The group leader glared at Peng Yunfeng fiercely and replied: "Stay them all, do you really dare to think about it?"
"Absolutely not. This gift is too hot to touch. We, the second group, must not swallow it all ourselves, and we can't swallow it!"
"If I do what you said and take it all to yourself, next time I go back and forth to the military subdivision, the other two regiment commanders won't scold me to death!"
The political commissar who had been silent until now spoke up: "The regiment leader is right, this is indeed a hot gift, and our second regiment cannot keep it all."
"I suggest leaving one third and handing over the rest to the military division for the commander to distribute!"
Peng Yunfeng became anxious and complained with a look of unwillingness: "Only one-third? Isn't it too little?"
"Regiment commander, political commissar, no matter how you divide it, you must keep those two mountain cannons. I shamelessly asked Commander Li of the Independent Regiment for those, and it was also he who named our second regiment to form a mountain cannon platoon, specifically for attacking difficulties.
of!"
"Also, to a certain extent, these weapons and ammunition can be said to have been purchased with the lives of more than a hundred soldiers of a battalion! There are also those seriously injured people. Without their sacrifices, the independent regiment would not be able to distribute so many weapons and equipment to us.
!”
"They can use weapons if they want. The independent regiment is currently short of soldiers. Let them replace them with veterans!"
The regiment leader thought for a long time and finally made a decision: "Battle Commander Peng is right, leaving only one third is too little, but leaving all of it is unrealistic!"
"Political Commissar, what do you think of my distribution plan: We will keep four heavy machine guns and hand over six. We will keep four mortars and hand over six. We will keep ten light machine guns and hand over twenty. The rifles will be handed over.
Six hundred, keep all the rest, and the ammunition will be divided according to this ratio! But keep the two mountain cannons and all the shells, and keep all the grenades and hand grenades as compensation for the troops sent by our second regiment!"
"I agree!" the political commissar quickly made a decision!
Seeing that Peng Yunfeng's face looked better, the regiment leader continued: "Captain Peng, we must learn to be content!"
"Although nearly two-thirds of the weapons were handed over, the remaining equipment is enough for our second regiment to have one gun per man, and the three new battalions can each be allocated three crooked guns and one heavy machine gun!"
"There are also mountain artillery and mortars. In addition to the mortars we already have, we can already form two mortar companies, a mountain artillery platoon, and almost an artillery battalion. We also have the ability to attack difficult positions, which is very important in the military.
The partition is already unique!”
"And your first battalion, recruit troops as soon as possible to make up for the shortage of troops. In addition, hand over half of the ammunition you brought back, just 20,000 rounds. You can keep the grenades and grenades for yourself!"
Peng Yunfeng immediately turned into a bitter-faced person. Just when he was about to refuse, the regiment leader interrupted him: "Don't make excuses. You are my old subordinate, and I know you best! If I remember correctly, I was in the same room just now.
The battalion seems to have seen a lot of machine guns and grenade launchers. Your kid must have hidden some private goods. Either 20,000 rounds of ammunition or take out all the hidden goods!"
Peng Yunfeng quickly changed his answer: "Don't worry, commander, I will carry out the order and will send 20,000 rounds of ammunition to the regiment headquarters when I get back!"
