Show the sword, start from the guerrillas

Chapter 277 Chapter 276, it’s been October, a year.

With something he liked to do, Li Yuexuan's time flew by and half a month passed quickly.

It was already September of 39, and although the temperature was still high, it was much cooler in the morning and evening. By this time, Li Yuexuan had been in the arsenal for a month and a half, and he actually missed his comrades in Liangjia Village.

In Liangjia Village, Xiao Fengyun led the young men and women in the village to start a military workshop again. However, most of their production capacity was concentrated on grenade production and reloading bullets.

The production of hand grenades is simple, but it is inevitable that there will be scraps! However, these scraps will not be wasted. Some unqualified shells and wooden handles of inappropriate size are nailed together, and some sand is poured in the middle, which is a good training bomb. These training bombs are just right for the 300 recruits to train in throwing grenades!
After more than a month of training, the 7 new recruits recruited in July have completed queue training and physical training, and have now entered the technical and tactical training stage. As for when they can be assigned to a team, they will have to wait for more than a month.

After more than a month of growth, the soybeans in the fields have already formed ridges. In the evening, you can still see small moths flying above the soybean fields. They are adult borer moths.

After more than a month of growth, the corn planted in the summer has grown to more than one meter tall and is about to ear and bloom.

However, looking at the new recruits doing push-ups in unison and the crops in the fields in the distance, Zhao Danian and his men always felt that something was missing. That's right, Li Yuexuan, the transport squad, the artillery platoon, the vanguard squad, and Xing Weiguo and his men were missing.

Near the arsenal Shanghe Village, where the special forces regiment was stationed, Xing Weiguo took a pencil and wrote down the content of today's lecture in his notebook, intending to give supplementary lessons to the guerrilla cadres after returning. These days, their class has studied "On Protracted War". The content of this book opened Xing Weiguo's eyes and he was no longer confused about the future.

On the training ground of the special forces regiment, the guerrilla fighters were training with their comrades from the special forces regiment. The two newly joined artillerymen had become familiar with their comrades during the training and had integrated into the group. Now, under the command of the two artillery commanders, the two mortar groups could quickly and accurately set up the mortars and prepare the shells.

However, the Jiang brothers and the soldiers of the vanguard squad, squad 7, and transport squad made a name for themselves in the special forces regiment.

That's right, two people, three squads, a total of 3 people, one squad leader even lost half of his arm. But these 29 comrades performed very well in both training and confrontation! Especially in a shooting activity, the comrades from squad 29 actually took 7 of the top 10 shooting positions, which really opened the eyes of the comrades of the special forces regiment!

Well, the other three comrades in the top ten are not from the Special Forces Regiment, but we should also add Comrades Hu Lanzhou, Cui Xinlang and Jiang Daquan.

Therefore, the commander of the first battalion of the special forces regiment, who was crushed in terms of shooting skills, found Minister Zhang and asked to be equipped with semi-automatic rifles, to have enough training bullets, and to find an opportunity to fight the Japanese on the battlefield...

"Your mission is to protect the safety of the arsenal. Here you will be fighting! So, forget about going to the battlefield, because you will face battles at any time! However, I can approve 10000 rounds of bullets for your shooting training. Bring back the shells after you're done! In addition, I'll equip you with 20 semi-automatic rifles first. Go to the warehouse to get them!" Minister Zhang said.

"Yes, Chief Zhang!" With bullets and a new gun, the battalion commander left in high spirits, even walking with the wind. Who is not a veteran? With more bullets, the shooting skills will improve!

Minister Zhang's episode did not affect Li Yuexuan's work and study! He also studied "On Protracted War" and learned a lot of military knowledge, which made him feel that his command ability was constantly improving. Although he mastered a lot of later military technical knowledge, due to the limitations of equipment, later tactics may not be suitable for the present! Therefore, after learning new knowledge, he can verify and summarize each other and get a set of tactics suitable for this era.

Of course, he also filled in and modified what he learned, and copied out the "Militia Training Manual", which he renamed "Eighth Route Army Soldier Training Manual Experimental Edition". When he handed the book to Minister Zhang, he almost couldn't hold it. Good fellow, you guys not only deal with equipment, but also training? Since it's an experimental version, let's try it out...

Well, the experiment takes time, and I don’t know what will happen next…

In the blink of an eye, another half month passed and it was already October.

In a newly built workshop of the arsenal, Li Yuexuan stood upright beside the workbench, watching Hai Datong and Lei Yan, with five workers, assembling the final refined parts together to form a semi-automatic machine, and felt very satisfied.

Although this work team only has 28 people, the production efficiency is not low after reasonable division of labor and cooperation! Look, 6 semi-automatic rifles can be produced in one day!
Haha, this production capacity is a joke in the arsenal of later generations, and it can also make people laugh in the current Russian bear country! However, for the Eighth Route Army, this production capacity is very good! After all, more than 180 semi-automatic rifles can be shipped out of the factory every month! These 180 semi-automatic rifles can be divided to equip 60 infantry squads. What else do you want?
You said no? Give all the equipment to one unit? Li Yuexuan really wanted to do this, but was afraid that Minister Zhang would disagree!

Oh, by the way, a small incident happened recently. The little girl Xu Hongying was transferred to the field hospital by Minister Zhang because she could not train and live with the male soldiers.

That’s right, it’s the field hospital, the one not far from the arsenal!

The little girl cried because she didn't want to leave the front-line combat troops. In the end, Li Yuexuan persuaded her to stop! Of course, this was also because Minister Zhang agreed to the little girl's conditions.

So, while the special forces regiment was training, the wounded soldiers witnessed a rare scene in the yard of the field hospital.

Well, a young nurse, carrying a semi-automatic gun and a box gun, was commanding 20 young nurses, also young, carrying Type rifles, to train together!

"So, what is the purpose of the guard company of our special forces regiment? To let the young nurses train themselves to protect themselves?" Looking at the nurses in training, the sentries were puzzled.

"Haha, these girls are pretty good. They are as brave as men!" Some wounded soldiers who were recovering from their injuries gathered together to admire the nurses' training.

"It's October now. It's been a year since I traveled here!" In the dead of night, Li Yuexuan was secretly counting the days...
