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

"Patronus!"

"Patronus!"

.......

These ordinary villagers shouted one after another.

Su Zheng used all his persuasion and finally succeeded in persuading these enthusiastic old people to leave.

It is certainly a good thing for Su Zheng to receive such enthusiastic support from the people.

Only when the mass base is solid can the army develop rapidly.

After the people left, Xiao Ya next to him smiled at Su Zheng and said, "Captain, you are really popular among the people. These people support you very much!"

Su Zheng: "Xiao Ya, do you know which army is truly powerful?"

Xiao Ya: "Is it the powerful equipment? The large number of troops? Or the well-trained ones?"

Su Zheng shook his head slightly and said: "None of these, a truly powerful army must have a solid mass...base!"

"Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it. Only when the mass foundation is solid can there be a continuous supply of fighting power!"

As a time traveler, Su Zheng naturally understood one thing.

For example, the decisive battle of San was won by relying on a strong mass base, and it was a victory pushed forward by ordinary people using wheelbarrows.

Xiao Ya nodded thoughtfully.

Because the American equipment of the 358th Regiment was seized from the bandit’s lair in Heiyun Village, Su Zheng decided to use these American equipment to form an elite company equipped with all American weapons.

The company has 400 people.

They all use American equipment and have been selected, making them the most elite companies in the independent battalion.

Su Zheng called Liu Dazhuang and Zhao Donghai to the headquarters, looked at them and said, "I'll assign you a task. Select 400 elite soldiers from the new recruits and infantry companies. I'm going to set up a US-equipped company!"

"This American-equipped company will use all-American equipment and will also need to undergo special training to become the most elite company in our independent battalion!"

There are currently nearly 800 infantrymen in the independent battalion, more than 200 of whom are new recruits.

Because of the reputation of the Su Zheng Independent Battalion and the stability of the Xinzhongcun base, many people from all over the surrounding areas would flock to the Xinzhongcun base.

In addition, Chen Yi's recruitment propaganda work was effective, and the independent battalion basically always had new recruits joining.

Zhao Donghai and Liu Dazhuang both nodded and said, "Yes, Captain, we will complete the mission."

Afterwards, Liu Dazhuang and Zhao Donghai began to select suitable soldiers from the independent camp.

After a day of selection, an elite company of 400 men was formed.

The entire company is equipped with American equipment, and the main weapons are Springfield rifles and M1919 light machine guns.

On the training ground.

Su Zheng looked at the elite company equipped with American equipment, nodded slightly and said: "Well, not bad, very imposing!"

"Congratulations on becoming a member of the elite company. You are the first batch of soldiers in our independent battalion to use American equipment. I hope you can exert the combat effectiveness of elite soldiers and don't let me down. Do you understand?"

"Yes!"

Everyone present responded loudly.

Su Zheng: "Very good, next you will have three days of special training!"

"The content of the training is to improve your combat effectiveness, as well as your coordination with the American equipment in your hands, and to master the weapons and equipment in your hands."

"Yes!"

The soldiers responded one after another.

Subsequently, Zhao Donghai was appointed as the company commander of the elite company and was responsible for related training work.

Yangcun.

Independent regiment headquarters.

The three iron triangles of Li Yunlong, Kong Jie and Ding Wei got together again to drink.

This time it was Kong Jie's group.

The headquarters of the New 1st Regiment was not far from Yangcun, so Li Yunlong came to reunite with his two old comrades.

On the kang.

Kong Jie, Ding Wei and Li Yunlong were drinking sweet potato soup and eating peanuts.

At first, they were just chatting.

As they were chatting, Li Yunlong looked at Kong Jie and said, "Kong Erlangzi, I just came into the regiment headquarters and saw that your troops have changed a lot of equipment. Where have you been making money recently?"

Ding Wei: "Lao Li, you are cursing me."

Kong Jie: "That's right, where can we go to make a fortune? The equipment we have is just for the sake of eating soup!"

Li Yunlong was stunned and asked, "Why did I curse? Lao Ding, Kong Erlengzi, what do you mean by this?"

Ding Wei: "Old Li, do you know where this batch of equipment for our independent regiment came from?"

Li Yunlong shook his head.

Ding Wei: "It's all thanks to Su Zheng from your group."

Kong Jie took a sip of wine and said, "Yes, Su Zheng was eating meat in front, and we followed behind to drink soup, and he said we were getting rich. Isn't this insulting?"

Li Yunlong looked at the two and asked, "What's going on?"

Kong Jie: "Do you know about the Wanjiazhen battle a while ago?"

"Su Zheng attacked Wanjia Town at night, captured the army horses of Wanjia Town before Lao Ding and I could, and also ambushed the Japanese's transport train."

"When Lao Ding and I arrived, Su Zheng had already taken away a lot of spoils, but he also left some spoils for us. He was more generous than you, Li Yunlong."

The independent regiment was able to equip itself with new equipment thanks to Su Zheng.

There's nothing wrong with that.

Ding Wei asked with a gleam in his eyes: "Yes, Lao Li, your New 1st Regiment is now breaking up into smaller units and developing independently. You must have made a fortune, and yet you come to tease us."

Li Yunlong grinned and said, "So that's what's going on...don't be so ungrateful."

"Didn't Su Zheng share so much spoils with you? It's good enough to have a sip of soup!"

"But, Kong Erlengzi, Lao Ding, you still have to admit that this Su Zheng is really a talented person!"

Kong Jie looked at Li Yunlong curiously and said, "Old Li, has Su Zheng made a fortune? Tell him. If there is any business that can make money, tell us. Let's make money together. We can't eat alone."

Li Yunlong: "This Su Zheng has indeed become rich."

"When Su was breaking up into smaller units and developing on his own, his platoon had only 20 people. Do you know how many people there were in his platoon a month and a half later? Guess?"

Ding Wei muttered, "One and a half months... 20 people... maybe two hundred people at most."

Kong Jie chewed some peanuts and said, "There should be more than that...Su Zheng is a talented person. ...I guess there should be more than 300 people!"

Li Yunlong grinned and shook his head: "Keep guessing!"

Ding Wei made a bold guess and said, "Old Li, it can't be 500 people, right? That's too exaggerated!"

Kong Jie: "Five hundred people? That's unlikely, right? I guess at most four hundred people."

Obviously, Ding Wei and Kong Jie both felt that Su Zheng's troops had grown from 20 to people in one and a half months, which was quite impressive.

· ···Request flowers··· 0

I don't even dare to guess higher than this.

Kong Jie met Su Zheng in Shentouling, and later Ding Wei and Kong Jie also met Su Zheng in Wanjia Town, but neither of them saw the situation of Su Zheng's entire army.

Therefore, the number of Su Zheng’s troops has always been unclear.

Although Su Zheng took over the cavalry battalion in Wanjia Town, this does not mean that he owns a cavalry battalion.

After all, cavalry needs training.

Li Yunlong shook his head: "No!"

Ding Wei: "Old Li, stop keeping us in suspense and tell us now!"

Li Yunlong raised a finger.

"Oh...more than a hundred people! This is a normal development!" Kong Jie said as he picked up the sweet potato soup and started drinking it.

Li Yunlong said directly: "What do you mean more than a hundred people? It's more than a thousand people!"

"puff......."

Kong Jie spit out the sweet potato stew he had just drunk, his eyes widened, and he and Ding Wei said almost in unison: "What? More than a thousand people?"

The expressions of both of them were quite shocked and surprised!

stunned!

He looked at Li Yunlong in disbelief.

Li Yunlong looked at Ding Wei and Kong Jie in astonishment, grinned and said, "You all find it unbelievable, right? Hahahaha, but Su Zheng did it!"

..... . ...7

"After reading Su Zheng's combat summary report, our regiment's new political commissar thought that Su Zheng was lying about his military achievements, hahaha!"

Kong Jie came back to his senses, and he and Ding Wei looked at each other in bewilderment, then said, "Oh my goodness...more than a thousand people? Then Su Zheng's platoon is equivalent to the strength of an entire regiment!"

Ding Wei also took a breath and said, "That's right, it's too exaggerated. It has grown to more than a thousand people in such a short time. It's too scary!"

The two of them were still somewhat incredulous.

Confused! 6

Shock! 2

Li Yunlong smiled happily and said, "That's why I say Su Zhengzhen is a talented person."

"From 20 people to more than a thousand people in a month and a half, who can grow a team this fast? Only Su Zheng can do it, hahahaha!"

"And he also established his own base. I have to admit it!"

At this moment, Li Yunlong was like a parent showing off his child's good grades. His face was filled with joy and pride.

It is relatively difficult to establish a base.

It doesn't mean that occupying a place will make it a base. It needs a base and foundation to exist, and it needs to form a military command center.

If the troops have no base, they can only keep moving and retreating.

Now Su Zheng has opened up his own base, taking root and developing steadily.

Ding Wei looked at Li Yunlong and said, "Old Li, you have found a treasure. You have a talent like Su Zheng under your command."

Kong Jie: "That's right... Everyone knows that you, Li Yunlong, have become rich, but I didn't expect that you got Su Zheng, a precious talent, and became rich by relying on Su Zheng."

Li Yunlong said seriously: "Kong Erlangzi, Lao Ding, don't try to attract Su Zheng's attention. No one can poach him, not even the brigade commander!"

Ding Wei smiled and said, "If the brigade commander comes, you will be so powerful that you will have to give up talents like Su Zheng. Hahaha!"

The three of them burst into laughter.

One thing brings down another thing.

Li Yunlong still has to rely on the brigade commander for treatment.

The three of them clinked their bowls and took a sip of the sweet potato stew.

Ding Wei looked at Li Yunlong seriously and said, "Just kidding... Lao Li, when are you going to Su Zheng's base area, bring Lao Kong and me with you? We both want to go and take a look."

Ding Wei was becoming more and more curious about Su Zheng, and he also wanted to see the base that Su Zheng had opened up.

Kong Jie also said: "Yes, yes, I want to go and see it too!"

Su Zheng's team has grown from 20 people to more than a thousand people, which makes Kong Jie and Ding Wei very curious.
