The director of the repair shop and the deputy battalion-level cadre were appointed directly without going through a meeting and discussion at the regiment headquarters. This is already a violation of discipline!
Moreover, such an important position was given directly to Jiang Wenyu, whom he had only met once.
Luo Yun subconsciously wanted to refute, but he swallowed the words back as soon as they reached his lips!
The serious expression on Li Hao's face made him realize that this matter must be very important to the Independent Regiment. Thinking about what the commander had just told him: Li Hao has arbitrary power in the Independent Regiment, Luo Yun decided to wait and see what happens!
Jiang Wenyu was also frightened by the conditions offered by Li Hao.
He didn't even know how big the director of the repair shop was or what the scale of the repair shop was!
But the deputy battalion commander knows!
Regardless of whether it is the Eighth Route Army or the Jinsui Army, the deputy battalion commander can be regarded as a mid-level military officer.
Many people may not be able to become a deputy battalion commander after ten years in the army. However, as an engineer who can make guns, when he first joined the Eighth Route Army, he became a deputy battalion-level cadre. This is definitely pie in the sky. It is so disappointing.
Surprise!
Seeing his two sons' eyes getting hotter and hotter, with eager expressions on their faces, eager to agree for him, Jiang Wenyu knew that he only had the option to agree.
He raised his eyebrows and replied: "Captain Li, I promise you!"
"Okay, Master Jiang, no, from now on I should call you Director Jiang. On behalf of all the soldiers of the Independent Regiment, I welcome you to join. I believe that when you get to the Independent Regiment, you will definitely be happy with today's decision!"
"I'll stop using the bayonets. You and your family will pack your bags right away. I'll send an infantry squad and ten mules and horses over soon to help you move!"
Using the same method, Li Hao persuaded two workers who could repair guns and an engineer who could make bullets. The group finally left the military division headquarters and rushed back to the independent regiment's headquarters!
Several newly built thatched houses next to the warehouse will be the future residence of the repair shop, and the conditions are very simple!
The door of a thatched house was open, and from time to time there was the sound of crisp metal collisions. More than a dozen injured and disabled soldiers were sitting around the workbench, assembling rifles with very crude tools!
There are already a row of more than a dozen good guns placed in the corner behind them, all the fruits of their day's work!
"Director Jiang, this is the rifle assembly team of the repair shop! Because there is no equipment, we can only turn waste into treasure by disassembling the rifle, picking out good parts, and then reassembling it. We try our best to repair the mountains of equipment in the warehouse.
Destroy the weapon!" Li Hao introduced!
"There are three houses next to it. I plan to use one for the machine gun assembly team, one for the ammunition reloading team, and one for the production of parts!"
"I have mobilized the base government to find skilled blacksmiths throughout Lingqiu, use the most primitive means to create some simple rifle parts, and repair as many rifles as possible!"
"Of course, during the whole process, I will find ways to get some equipment for the repair shop to increase the strength of the repair shop!"
"Director Jiang, your mission is to get the repair shop back on track as soon as possible, turn the scrapped firearms in the warehouse into treasure, equip the troops, and let the soldiers take your repaired weapons and equipment to the battlefield to kill the Japanese!"
Jiang Wenyu looked solemn and took a deep breath before replying: "Captain Li, the conditions of the repair shop are too poor. There is not even a single piece of equipment. It is very difficult to achieve results!"
"I know!" Li Hao did not deny it.
"That's why I found talents like you, Director Jiang. I believe that the repair shop will continue to grow and develop under your leadership!"
"Although we can only assemble rifles now, I believe that in the near future we will be able to equip light and heavy machine guns, reload bullets, produce grenades, and even directly produce rifles, machine guns, and bullets!"
"I have already told the political commissar that from now on, you will officially take over as the director of the repair shop, and you will be responsible for the appointment of all personnel in the repair shop! At the same time, I will transfer a guard platoon from the security company to station around the repair shop.
, protect the safety of the repair shop!”
"The meals for all the cadres and soldiers in the repair station are taken care of by the regimental cooking class. They will dispatch a cooking team to come and cook for you!"
"In addition, for all the problems that the repair shop will encounter in the future, Director Jiang, please go directly to Deputy Head Luo. As long as he can solve it, he will definitely solve it for you as soon as possible. If he can't solve it, he will report it to me and the political commissar, and we will find a way to help you solve it."
!”
At the independent regiment headquarters, it has been three days since Li Hao returned from the military division headquarters.
The arrival of deputy leader Luo Yun directly made Li Hao the most relaxed person in the entire independent group.
The expansion and training of the army are under the supervision of the chief of staff Hong Linfeng, and the political commissar is in charge of the political affairs. He does not need to be overly concerned at all. Now Luo Yun has taken over the entire logistics and sweet potato flour factory of the independent regiment, leaving Li Hao with almost nothing to do!
But that doesn't mean he can just sit around and do nothing!
The military division only brought back 500 recruits, which meant that the independent regiment still lacked at least 500 recruits to be fully staffed. What Li Hao was thinking about now was where to get these 500 recruits!
"Captain, how about we attack Lingqiu!" the chief of staff suggested with an eager look on his face!
"Go directly to the area occupied by the Japs in Laiyuan, seize a few towns from them and develop them into our base! By then, we can recruit not only 500 recruits, but even 1,000 recruits!"
Li Hao was a little moved, but soon he frowned, shook his head and objected.
"No, we can't take advantage of Laiyuan now!"
"Why?" Hong Linfeng asked with a puzzled look on his face!
A flash of doubt flashed across the political commissar's face. He hesitated and reminded: "Captain, to be honest, I also agree with the chief of staff's proposal!"
"The Independent Regiment has a full strength of more than 3,000 people, plus various logistics departments and local cadres. There are almost 4,500 people who need to eat and wear clothes every day..."
"Lingqiu is mostly mountainous, with little arable land and barren land. The population it can feed is limited, and it simply cannot support so many troops!"
"Now we are supported by the profits from the sweet potato flour factory, plus the autumn harvest has just begun in the base area, and we have just collected the public grain, so the troops can still hold on."
"But for the long-term development of the army, our independent regiment must fight out!"
"At least half of Laiyuan must be occupied and turned into our base! Only in this way can we harvest enough food to eat. We can use the food to exchange for the necessary military uniforms and uniforms for the soldiers, and then we have to buy vegetables and salt..."
Li Hao did not deny it this time: "We must fight him out, but not now!"
"Have you not noticed that the Japanese and puppet troops have been too quiet during this period? Since we killed Watanabe, there has been no movement at all from the Japanese and puppet troops in the surrounding area and Lingqiu City. This is too abnormal."
"Also, more than 3,000 Japanese puppet troops were killed in one battle. Although this result was not widely publicized, in the eyes of the Japanese, our independent regiment was still pushed to the forefront!"
"I don't believe that the little Japs just watched more than a thousand of them being beaten to death and remained indifferent. There must be a conspiracy that we don't know about, and there must be a monster out of the ordinary!"
"My judgment is that our independent regiment has been so popular during this period that the Japanese can't figure out our strength for a while, so they can only stand still!"
"If we fight out now, we will continue to slap the little Japanese in the face and anger them. At the same time, our strength will be exposed and our troops will be dispersed. The Japanese will definitely not remain indifferent!"
