Jagged Changjin Lake: Kill the enemy and become stronger

After receiving the permission of Brigadier Chen, the Independent Regiment immediately began to recruit troops.

The regiment headquarters will distribute the news to the subordinate units, and then the units will pass it on to the people stationed there.

There is a certain truth to the saying that righteousness is mostly dog ​​slaughter.

The general cultural level of the country people is not high, but a patriotic heart is extremely sincere.

Now that the country is in crisis, if you want to serve the country, joining the army is undoubtedly the best choice.

Years of wars have caused the people's lives to be extremely difficult. The lack of food and clothes is almost a true portrayal of the daily life of the rural people at that time.

Especially after the little devils invaded, the frequent raids and harassment pushed the common people into dire straits.

If someone in the family can serve as a soldier, it will protect the whole family virtually.

It's just that the Eighth Route Army was strictly disciplined. In the early days of the War of Resistance, the main task in the base area was to fight against the little devils, and there was no rush to expand. Therefore, many people who wanted to join the military camp had no way to join the army.

In addition, the Eighth Route Army is originally the people's army, and the mass base in the base areas is very good. When they suddenly learned that the conscription had started, every household in the ten miles and eight townships enthusiastically signed up.

In just three days, those who signed up to join the army almost broke through the threshold of each unit under the Independence Regiment.

"Damn it, the power of the masses is indeed infinite."

Li Yunlong looked at the reports sent by the troops, and his mouth was almost crooked.

I thought it would be great to recruit 2000 people for this conscription, but in just a few days, more than 7000 people just registered to sign up.

Not only the people in the independent regiment's defense area enthusiastically signed up, but even the people in the surrounding counties came here after hearing the news.

This is only the initial number of people. It is estimated that in a few days, the number of people who will sign up will exceed [-].

What is the concept of this number?

If all those who signed up for the army were absorbed into the army, the total strength of the independent regiment would be equivalent to a division of the conventional army.

Of course, the Eighth Route Army is restricted for some reason, and its troop structure is different from that of conventional troops.

The [-]th Brigade alone, although it is a brigade-level organization, its actual number far exceeds that of a division.

Therefore, even if the independent regiment can achieve a strength of over [-], its organization can only be at the regiment level.

After the joy, troubles follow.

After considering the specific situation, Li Yunlong found that too many people joining the army is also a problem.

First of all, weapons and equipment are a big problem. At present, only the existing fighters of the independent regiment can participate in the battle. How many weapons and ammunition must be seized from the little devils to equip these people with weapons?

Secondly, supplies are also a problem. The matter of weapons can be postponed, but what about military uniforms?They are all in the Eighth Route Army, so they have to be given military uniforms.

In the end, if all these people were absorbed into the army, there would hardly be much young labor left in the base areas. Who would do the farm work like spring plowing and autumn harvesting?

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Thinking of these problems, Li Yunlong felt a toothache and began to sigh while sitting there.

In the past, in the army, there would be dedicated personnel to deal with these things, but now that I can be the master of the house, I don't know how to deal with it.

"Head, why are you worried again? The wrinkles on your face are getting more and more."

Qiao Lin was delivering food to Li Yunlong, just happened to see this scene, and said jokingly.

"It's not about conscription."

Li Yunlong threw the report in his hand on the table, and seeing the food Qiao Lin brought, he lost his appetite at all.

"I heard that the conscription went very smoothly. There are a lot of people who sign up. The troops are so busy that they don't even have time for training. Battalion Commander Zhang hasn't come to me to learn sword skills these two days. When there are no soldiers, you can worry about it. Why worry about being recruited into the army?"

Jolin asked very puzzled.

He just gave Li Yunlong some advice on how to operate it. It is not necessary for him, a security guard, to understand the relevant details in detail. Basically, he still focuses on exercising every day.

"You don't understand this. If there are fewer soldiers, you can't fight, but if there are too many people, it will be troublesome..."

Li Yunlong articulated several issues that worried him.

After hearing this, Qiao Lin suddenly laughed.

"What are you laughing at? If you dare to laugh at my stupidity, just wait to be cleaned up."

Li Yunlong thought that Qiao Lin was laughing at him, so he started threatening after staring.

"How dare I laugh at you, I just suddenly remembered a joke, which is quite similar to yours."

Qiao Lin laughed a few more times before speaking.

"What joke?"

Li Yunlong hurriedly asked.

"In ancient times, there was a poor man who had no house, no land, and couldn't even afford to eat. Every day, he hoped that it would be great if he had money. A god saw that he was frowning all day long, and couldn't bear it, so he conjured a lot of money. Give him gold, silver and treasure, and make him a rich man."

Qiao Lin also couldn't remember when he saw the joke, but he only remembered that he thought it was quite funny at the time.

"Isn't this great? With the help of the gods, you will get rich in no time."

Li Yunlong said with some envy that he now hopes that a god will come out to help him.

"After a while, the gods remembered this, so they came down to the world to see how the man was doing, but found that he was still frowning. The gods were very strange, so they asked him, do you worry when you have no money?" , why are you still worried now that you have money? Guess what he said?"

When Qiao Lin talked about this, he asked with a smile.

"How to say?"

Li Yunlong asked curiously.

"He said I was worrying about how to spend the money. Haha, is it ridiculous?"

After finishing speaking, Qiao Lin couldn't bear it anymore and burst out laughing.

After laughing a few times, he found that Li Yunlong hadn't moved, so he opened his eyes to take a look.

Not only did Li Yunlong not smile, but his face was ashen, looking at him angrily.

"Aren't you still kidding me?"

Li Yunlong was so angry that he grabbed the report on the table and threw it over.

Qiao Lin didn't hide, and reached out to catch it directly: "Head, I definitely didn't laugh at you, why are you still angry? I can give you some advice, I wonder if you would like to listen?"

A flower bloomed on Li Yunlong's face at a speed visible to the naked eye: "I've been exercising for a long time, are you thirsty? Drink some water."

With that said, a bowl of water was brought to Qiao Lin.

Seeing Qiao Lin finish drinking the water, Li Yunlong asked, "What's your idea?"

"Captain, in fact, what you are worried about is not a big deal, and it is easy to solve. First of all, you have to know in your heart, how much do you plan to recruit this time?"

Qiao Lin plans to make a plan based on Li Yunlong's goals, after all, he is the head of the team.

There was no movement for a long time. Seeing Li Yunlong's bewildered expression, as if he didn't quite understand, Qiao Lin explained again: "What I mean is, what scale do you plan to develop the independent group to?"

Now Li Yunlong understood, and after thinking about it, he said: "Now the independent regiment has less than 1000 people, two infantry battalions, a cavalry company, and a communication squad. I want to get three infantry battalions and one artillery battalion." Battalion, a cavalry company, a machine gun company, a special agent company, an assault company, plus a firepower company, plus the staff, communications platoon, and logistics and health teams, it’s almost 4000 people.”

After all, he is a veteran who has been in the army for many years, and he is still very good at how to form a strong combat force.

Even Jolin couldn't fault this arrangement.

From a professional military point of view, 4000 people are already equivalent to two regiments, and the force is absolutely saturated.

During the Anti-Japanese War, the conditions were limited, the military concept was backward, and there were no armored vehicles and other equipment. In fact, many combat troops did not have a detailed division of labor, and almost all of them were soldiers.

That is to say, a regiment, from the regiment leader to the cooking squad, all belong to the infantry sequence.

Just from Li Yunlong's personnel allocation and unit deployment to the independent regiment, it can be seen that this person's military concepts are already very advanced.

He is not a reckless man who can only fight with courage. When the Eighth Route Army still used the crowd tactics as the mainstream tactics, he could already think of using various arms to fight in coordination.

This point is very commendable.

"Then make up 4000 people as the official establishment of the independent regiment. We can find a way to get the weapons of these new fighters from the devils bit by bit. Although two to three thousand guns are quite a lot, it is enough to get a few more devils' brigades." We can make it all together, Brigadier Chen has agreed to our conscription, so he can't ignore the uniforms."

Qiao Lin winked his eyes at Li Yunlong, and said with something in his words.

"That's right, let's figure out the weapons ourselves, and the brigade commander in uniform can't ignore it."

Li Yunlong slapped his thigh and suddenly realized that he would find another family to help share the burden.

"However, there are quite a lot of people who have signed up to join the army. What about the rest? Doesn't it discourage the masses to directly refuse?"

After a while, Li Yunlong said again with a look of embarrassment.

Qiao Lin curled his lips, knowing that he said this intentionally for himself.

Li Yunlong must be reluctant to turn away thousands of people who want to be soldiers at once. The leaders in the army are like this. Han Xinbing soldiers, the more the better.

"This is also simple. Set up county brigades and district teams, and arrange those who have not been recruited. They are not part of the regular establishment of the Eighth Route Army, but they are all led by the independent regiment."

Qiao Lin gave Li Yunlong another idea.

"Wait a minute, please speak carefully, I didn't understand."

Li Yunlong hurriedly asked, it was the first time he heard these words.

"It is to set up militia teams in all counties, districts and townships, similar to local armed forces. They are not part of the regular army. They are busy with farm work in their spare time, and they can also go to the battlefield during wartime. They can also be responsible for inquiring about intelligence and investigating the spies that the enemy has photographed. They have many functions. .”

Qiao Lin talked eloquently and explained to Li Yunlong this method of personnel allocation in detail.

In fact, this method was not thought up by Qiao Lin, but was researched by the Eighth Route Army based on its own conditions in order to better fight the war.

It's just that it's still in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, and this method has not yet appeared. Qiao Lin picked the fruits of his predecessors and used it on the independent regiment.

Qiao Lin opened a new door for Li Yunlong by serving the people in his spare time and serving as a soldier.

This is what the great man said, mobilize all the forces that can be mobilized, all the people are soldiers, and fight together.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

The militia does not belong to the formal organization, and some weapons can be distributed symbolically. A county brigade is equipped with ten rifles, and a district squad is equipped with three guns. If you want more weapons, you can also seize them yourself.

As for the problem of military uniforms, it is easier to solve. Some jackets, hats, pants, and even belts are distributed separately.

Li Yunlong used to be the director of a quilt factory, so it was not a problem to get some military uniforms back with his relationship.

You can also select some top soldiers from the subordinate units to train their military skills. To a certain extent, these people are the hidden armed forces of the independent regiment except for the [-] soldiers on the surface.
