Anti-Japanese War: Developing on my own, I brought back a US-equipped division

Being so young and a woman, she took over the Skynet Intelligence Bureau, the independent battalion's separate intelligence department. This is indeed stressful, and there may be some problems that cannot be handled well.

However, at the beginning, Su Zheng will definitely take the dominant position and cannot immediately become a hands-off boss.

Su Zheng is optimistic about Shangguan Yufei.

Afterwards, Su Zheng and Shangguan Yufei talked a lot about matters related to the Skynet Intelligence Agency and future plans.

More than an hour later, Shangguan Yufei finally left.

After Shangguan Yufei left, Liu Aimin from the conscription office came.

Liu Aimin walked into Su Zheng's office with a document in his hand, and came to Su Zheng and said, "Captain, this is the roster of all the frontline personnel of our independent battalion, take a look!"

"it is good!"

Su Zheng took the roster of the frontline soldiers of the independent battalion, looked at it, smiled and said, "Okay... Not bad, the total number of soldiers in our independent battalion has now exceeded 10,000."

There is only one month left before the three-month deadline.

At this rate of development, in another month, Su Zheng could bring back a division...

Chapter 358 Shocking! A battalion of over people! Division Commander Su Zheng! (Second update, I will tell you about your temperament)

What Liu Aimin handed to Su Zheng was the roster of the independent battalion's frontline soldiers.

The soldiers who are on the roster are all official soldiers of the independent battalion.

Those who have passed one round of screening but failed the second round...will not be included in the independent camp's roster.

According to the number of soldiers on this roster, there are now a total of 10124 soldiers in the independent battalion.

The number of people exceeds ten thousand!

Although it is organized as a battalion, the total number of troops in the independent battalion exceeds 10,000.

These are only the front-line combat personnel, not including the logistics personnel.

If the logistics personnel are included, the total strength of the independent battalion is now as high as 15,000, which is quite terrifying.

This is still the number of a battalion.

Liu Aimin looked at Su Zhengdao and said, "Yes, Commander, our recruitment speed in the past month has exceeded our imagination. We have recruited more than 8,000 people!"

More than a month ago, the independent battalion had just finished the defense battle of Xinzhong Village, and only more than a thousand people were left.

The independent battalion was at its weakest at this time.

After all, we went through a great war.

However, because Wu Xiaojin had previously reported on the Xinzhongcun base, it attracted many ordinary people and refugees from all over the country, which directly led to a rapid increase in the population of the Xinzhongcun base.

After more than a month, the population of the Xinzhongcun base has now exceeded 100,000.

Among the new civilians and refugees, the conscription office recruited many new soldiers.

After all, the population of the Xinzhongcun base has increased, which means there will naturally be more troops.

On the other hand, with the great victory in the defense of Xinzhongcun, the independent battalion wiped out the 9th Brigade and the 4th Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Army, killing more than 12,000 enemies and also killing four Japanese and puppet generals... Such a sensational victory once again attracted widespread attention and influence across the country.

In addition to the previous victory of the independent battalion in annihilating the 747th Brigade, there was also Su Zheng’s special report and the special report on the Xinzhongcun base.

A combination of these reasons attracted more patriotic and aspiring young people to come to the Xinzhongcun base, sign up for the independent battalion, and fight against the Japanese invaders together.

Therefore, in the past month, the independent battalion's strength has increased by more than 8,000 troops, and the total number of troops has exceeded 10,000.

The speed of this expansion is quite terrifying.

Su Zheng looked at the names on the roster, nodded and said, "The fact that we can expand so quickly is the result of the right time, right situation, and right people!"

"But our recruitment work must continue and cannot stop!"

"If you have any problems, report them to Minister Chen Yi. If he can't solve them, come to me!"

Liu Aimin nodded and said, "Okay...I understand!"

In just one month, the independent battalion expanded from more than a thousand people to more than ten thousand people.

With so many new recruits joining...if it were any other unit, the logistics would be under a lot of pressure.

Not to mention anything else, just the food, drink, defecation, and other expenses of the extra 8,000 or so new recruits is a huge expense.

But this is not a difficult task for the independent camp.

Because the independent battalion’s logistical support is strong enough.

Su Zheng looked at Liu Aimin and said, "I'll remind you again, when recruiting new soldiers, we would rather have fewer than too few!"

It is better to have nothing than to have something of poor quality...This is the most basic principle.

The independent battalion needs to expand rapidly, but at the same time the quality of the new recruits will be guaranteed.

We will never allow unqualified people or people with ulterior motives to infiltrate the independent camp.

Liu Aiming: "Yes...Captain!"

Afterwards, Su Zheng explained to Liu Aimin some matters and precautions regarding conscription, and Liu Aimin left.

It can be said that after more than a month of development and expansion, the independent battalion has now been fully revived.

Even the new recruits...the first batch of new recruits have already developed preliminary combat effectiveness, but they lack practical experience.

There is less than a month left in the three-month independent development period.

What Li Yunlong and the general had agreed upon was that... three months later, the New 1st Regiment would be expanded into a main reinforced brigade.

In other words, the new regiment will be expanded to more than 7,000 people.

But now Su Zheng’s independent battalion alone has more than 10,000 people, which is completely capable of achieving the boss’s goal.

And there is less than a month left. However, for Su Zhenghe's independent battalion, it is entirely possible to expand the number of troops to a standard main division.

To be precise, the number of troops in the independent battalion has now exceeded 10,000.

A standard division-level combat unit has a strength of approximately 10,000 to 12,000 men.

So although the independent battalion is now only numbered as a battalion, its military strength is as much as that of a division.

However, if the independent battalion wants to reach the strength of a main division, it must reach 15,000 people.

That means there is still a shortage of more than 5,000 people.

But it doesn’t matter. Su Zheng’s army now has more than 10,000 people, and the strength of the entire army is at its peak.

After Liu Aimin left, Su Zheng went to the training ground behind the village.

As the independent battalion expanded to more than 10,000 people, the original training ground behind the village is no longer sufficient.

Therefore, the training ground has been expanded to two locations.

The training ground behind the village is mainly the training site for artillery companies, tank companies and independent battalions.

The other two newly built training grounds are superior to those of other troops.

Although the independent battalion has now expanded to more than 10,000 people, the organization of each company has not changed much.

At present, the independent battalion is organized as follows:

The first infantry company has a strength of more than 1,500 people, and its commander is Liu Dazhuang. Its main weapons and equipment are Japanese equipment.

The Second Infantry Company has a strength of more than 1,500 people, with Lei Zifeng as the company commander and Monkey as the deputy company commander. Their main weapons and equipment are American-style Springfield rifles and some Japanese-style equipment.

The third infantry company has more than 1 soldiers. The company commander is Zhou Weiguo and the deputy company commander is Zhu Ziming. The main equipment is American equipment. The whole company is equipped with M134 Garand rifles and M Gatling machine guns.

The elite company has more than 1 soldiers, and its commander is Zhao Donghai. Its main equipment is also the M134 Garand rifle and the M Gatling machine gun.

Unlike Zhou Weiguo's Third Infantry Company, the elite company is equipped with a larger number of mortars and grenade launchers and can provide independent artillery support.

The Sichuan Army company had a strength of about a thousand soldiers, and its commander was Li Deming. Its main weapons and equipment were Japanese equipment.

The artillery company has more than 1,500 soldiers, and the company commander is Yang Zhihua.

The artillery company is now very wealthy, with nearly a hundred artillery pieces of various types.

Among them, the more advanced artillery are RPG-7, M2A1 105-caliber howitzer, Type infantry gun, Italian gun, etc.

The rest are all howitzers of various types and calibers.

The cavalry company has more than 1,000 soldiers. The company commander is Sun Desheng.

The independent battalion has 300 soldiers, and its captain is Li Dabenshi.

The Dragon Soul Special Forces, led by Captain Chen Zhengguo, has a staff strength of 35 members.

The Ghost Team, whose leader is Xu Yihang, has increased its staff from 10 to 20 people.

The reconnaissance company, with its commander Duan Peng, maintained its strength at 120 men.

The special forces company, led by company commander Liang Fei, maintained its strength at 120 men.

In addition, there are troops directly under the regiment headquarters, with a total number of about 100 people.

Finally, there is the tank company, whose commander is Xu Yang.

Now the independent battalion has only four tanks, two Domino tanks and two Sherman tanks.

The total number of people in the entire tank company was not very large, only 30.

It is worth mentioning that none of the relevant members of the Skynet Intelligence Agency belong to the independent battalion’s front-line combat forces, and their names are not on the independent battalion’s roster.

This is also done to maintain confidentiality.

Ensure the safety of Skynet Intelligence Agency intelligence personnel.

The reason why the tank company and the independent battalion train together is very simple, that is, to conduct infantry-tank coordination training.

If you want to give full play to the role of tanks and expand the results of the battle, then infantry-tank coordinated tactics is the best choice.

Especially in this era, infantry-tank tactics are an important tactic for rapid advance.

After a month of training, the tank company and the independent battalion's infantry-tank coordination training has become quite good.

Su Zheng arrived at the training ground behind the village and happened to see the tank company and the independent battalion conducting infantry-tank coordination training.

buzzing...

Four tanks were driving in front, one after the other.

There were two Sherman tanks in the front and two Peacock tanks on the left and right sides.

The soldiers of the independent battalion took advantage of the cover of the tanks, distributed on the left and right sides of the tanks, and then advanced quickly.

The two sides cooperated quite well.

After watching a training session, Su Zheng applauded and cheered.

When Xu Yang and Li Dabenshi saw Su Zheng coming, they ran over and saluted and said, "Captain."

Su Zheng looked at the two and said, "Not bad, I think your infantry-tank coordination training went well!"

"Remember, the coordinated tactics of infantry and tanks does not mean that tanks drive in front and infantry run behind, but that infantry and tanks work closely together!"

Li Dabenshi nodded and said, "Captain, I understand... We are cooperating well now!"

"Captain, you are amazing. You can actually come up with such a great tactic!"

Xu Yang: "Yeah... I thought driving a tank meant just charging forward, but I didn't expect it could also coordinate with infantry. The tactical effect is completely different."

Su Zheng: "You guys hurry up and train. When you're really on the battlefield, don't let me down!"

Li Dabenshi and Xu Yang both responded loudly: "Yes!"

Afterwards, the tank company and the independent battalion continued their infantry-tank coordinated tactical training.

Su Zheng went to inspect the training of other combat troops.

With more new recruits, training must not be neglected.

Otherwise, if they cannot form combat effectiveness, they will just be a mob.

The training of other companies and units is also being carried out in an orderly manner.

Su Zheng inspected the group and was very positive about their training results and methods.

More than an hour later, Su Zheng returned to the regiment headquarters.

As soon as I returned to the regiment headquarters, Xiao Ya came up and said, "Captain, the New 1st Regiment sent a telegram."
