Chapter 5 Main Group, Core Group "Oh my god, is this a team made up of wounded soldiers?" A man wearing a patched blue-gray military uniform, An Eighth Route Army soldier carrying a Hanyang rifle and leading a black horse looked at a group of soldiers wearing brand new Eighth Route Army uniforms training in an open space and immediately wondered if he had arrived at the Eighth Route Army headquarters. It’s simple, these new recruits are really new. The clothes are new, even the gun is new. He also saw several Type 99 light machine guns. On the other side, some people were practicing using heavy machine guns! Type 92 heavy machine gun. Even his original main force regiment, the 772nd Regiment, had only three guns. But now I saw one in this village.
When he entered the village, he also saw a heavy machine gun mounted on the hillside at the entrance of the village. Soon a soldier brought the messenger to the front of the ancestral hall. Qin Yangming also brought Sun Zhigang and Captain Luo to stand in front of the ancestral hall to welcome the communicator. "Little Dog, long time no see." The correspondent was very happy to see Qin Yangming. But when he heard Qin Yangming calling out his nickname, he instantly became unhappy. He is very familiar with Qin Yangming because his life was saved by Qin Yangming. "No, Brother Qin, can't you forget this?" The two joked for a while and then went into the ancestral hall to start talking about business. "Brother Qin, I came here this time to tell you about returning to the base. You should know this." After taking a sip of water, Goudan was the first to speak out the purpose of his visit. "Well, I have received the news about this matter. Where is Captain Cheng now? When will we return to base?" Qin Yangming nodded, and then asked about returning to the team. But Goudan began to hesitate when listening to Qin Yangming's question. "What's wrong? Is there something wrong? " "Well, Brother Qin, you have to be mentally prepared." "What happened? Could it be that something happened to the leader?" Qin Yangming looked at Goudan's expression and stood up directly.
"No, no, no, Captain Cheng is fine. It's just that you are not going to return to the 772nd Regiment. It was the new regiment formed by the headquarters, the New First Regiment. In addition, the new leader wants you to return to the base as quickly as possible." When Goudan realized that he had caused a misunderstanding, he quickly told everyone what had happened. "Oh, I'm so scared. I thought something happened to Captain Cheng." Sun Zhigang, who stood up excitedly at the side, also breathed a sigh of relief after telling him what Goudan said. Qin Yangming, who was standing by, also sat down after hearing Goudan say that the captain was fine. "What the hell? "The basic group?" Then Sun Zhigang suddenly realized the key point of Goudan’s words. The 772nd Regiment was a standard main force regiment of the Eighth Route Army and belonged to the sequence of the National Revolutionary Army. The so-called basic regiment was a unit formed by the Eighth Route Army by drawing deputies from the main regiments. There are huge differences between the two in combat effectiveness, weapons and equipment, and organization. Of course, there are exceptions to everything. If the leader of a basic regiment is capable, it is possible that the regiment will be stronger than the main force. After all, the organization of the main force is fixed and cannot be easily changed. As for the core group, you must have the ability to form a group of 10,000 people. The Eighth Route Army Headquarters would not say anything either. In short, the strength of the main group is basically not bad, and the treatment is guaranteed; For a basic group, it all depends on the personal ability of the group leader. Being able to do so means drinking and eating meat. If you don’t have the ability, then I’m sorry, the team leader will just replace you. But for these veterans. The gap between the basic regiment and the main regiment is really big, and the soldiers of the main regiment are very good. Suddenly becoming a soldier of the core regiment, no one would be able to accept it. However, for Qin Yangming, there is no difference between the basic regiment and the main regiment. Anyway, we are all fighting the Japanese, so why bother with the issue of treatment? There is a difference between the main force and the core regiments of the Eighth Route Army. But how bad can it be?
Especially for old Red Army soldiers like him who have been with us since the very beginning. There is no more difference. To use the words of later generations, it means: Even if you bleed all your blood, it will not be as red as others’ sweat! "What's the new leader's name?" Qin Yangming continued to ask. "The new leader is Li Yunlong. Appointed directly by the headquarters. I heard that he was also the leader of a main group before. I don’t know what I did wrong to be called to the headquarters to raise horses.” "What the hell? Li Yunlong? This time it was Qin Yangming's turn to be shocked. When he heard the name, all his memories from his past life began to stir. The memories of this life also began to churn. Li Yunlong, this name is very famous. This name is exactly the name of the protagonist in an anti-Japanese war TV series. And Li Yunlong in the TV series is also the leader of the New 1st Regiment. But there is another guy in Qin Yangming's memory. He was still a child when the Red Army crossed the grassland. Since he was quite strong, he was assigned to the kitchen team. Well, when we were crossing the grassland, the squad leader suddenly brought back a handsome young man. He said that from that day on, he had to bear the blame. And the handsome young man's name was also Li Long. He was also a regimental commander, but it seemed that he was dismissed because he allowed his soldiers to steal food. The reason why Qin Yangming was so familiar with this guy was not only because they had been together for a long time, but also because someone always sent him food. Things like beef jerky, and sometimes even a little wine. Because he is young, the other party takes good care of him. So I often give him that food. It’s just because the memories of the previous life are too vast.
Plus, the guy in my memory was called Li Long, not Li Yunlong. As a result, this memory was buried deep down and I was unable to recall this person. It seems that the new leader may be Li Yunlong from the TV series. Qin Yangming also became excited. Li Yunlong in the TV series was famous for not following the rules. And Qin Yangming is not a rule-abiding guy. Now he no longer has to worry about not being able to go out on his own to kill the enemy, thus wasting system functions. Thinking of this, Qin Yangming spoke directly to Sun Zhigang. "Okay, Squad Leader Sun, we're fighting the Japanese anyway, so it doesn't matter which regiment we go to. Go gather the troops, we're leaving today. The headquarters of the New 1st Regiment is more than 70 kilometers away from us, and if we hurry, we can get there before dark today." "Go early and leave a good impression on the new leader." Sun Zhigang listened to Qin Yangming's words and rolled his eyes at him. "With your equipment and a team of more than 80 people, Two heavy machine guns, a mortar, The captain has no choice but to give you a good impression." Sun Zhigang grabbed his hat and went to gather the troops as Qin Yangming requested. In one month, Qin Yangming's troops formed four infantry squads with sixteen people in each squad. Each squad is divided into two infantry groups and one firepower group. The infantry team consists of five people and the firepower team consists of six people. The infantry group consists of five men equipped with rifles. The team leader is also equipped with a Mauser C96 semi-automatic pistol (single-shot version with ten-round magazine). The firepower team is equipped with a light machine gun and a grenade launcher. The light machine gun team consists of three people, the grenade launcher team consists of two people, plus a team leader. The deputy and team leader are equipped with Mauser C96 semi-automatic pistols. Machine gunner with a rifle. The first and second squads were mainly equipped with Chinese rifles and Czech light machine guns. The third and fourth squads were mainly equipped with Type 38 rifles and Type 99 light machine guns. The grenade launchers were all the Japanese Type 89 grenade launchers. Ensure that individual infantry squads can overwhelm the Japanese infantry units in terms of firepower.
Qin Yangming also has a machine gun squad. Equipped with a Type 24 Maxim heavy machine gun. A Type 92 heavy machine gun, A 60mm mortar, There is also a five-man mule and horse team that specializes in carrying ammunition and the like. It can be said that Qin Yangming had eighty main combatants. If the nearby people's ability to provide for the people had not reached its limit. More than thirty new recruits have drained out most of the best players in the county brigade and district squad. Qin Yangming wished he could expand his troops to a company. After all, he still has 540 points to use. There was still a Type 24 heavy machine gun in the system's warehouse that had not been taken out. In addition, there were nearly eighty Hanyang rifles and Type 38 rifles seized. There are still five captured Type 99 light machine guns. There are three Czech light machine guns and three grenade launchers. After the troops gathered at the village entrance, the villagers who knew that the Eighth Route Army was about to leave gathered at the entrance. Some villagers were tidying up the clothes of some soldiers, trying to smooth out the non-existent wrinkles. Because some of these soldiers are their fathers, Some are their sons, Some are their husbands. The village chief Duanjiaao, who was wearing a black robe in front, saw Qin Yangming coming and slammed the walking stick in his hand to the ground. "Come back here, your children and husbands are going out to fight the Japanese. Don’t let your family affairs affect them. If you are a soldier, you must have the awareness of being a soldier! " When the village chief said the last few words, He turned his head and looked at the first soldier on the left in the first row of the queue. That was his son, the only recruit present who had no relatives to see him off. He is the village chief and the clan leader, so it is only natural for his son to go to the battlefield. He would never allow himself to interfere with his son. However, his slightly trembling hands showed that he was not at peace inside. Because that was his last son. Of his three sons, the other two joined the Eighth Route Army and died in battle. Qin Yangming walked up to the village chief and thanked him.
"Village chief, thank you for your care during this period. I left some things for everyone in the ancestral hall. After we leave, please distribute it to the villagers." The village chief nodded after hearing what Qin Yangming said, then took a bowl of wine from a woman behind him. "Platoon Leader Qin, I don't know how long it will take for us to meet again after you leave. I have prepared a bowl of light wine to send you off, and I wish you victory in every battle and every attack.” "Platoon Leader Qin, I have only one request. If a man from my Duan family dies on the battlefield, please send someone to deliver a message. Tell me whether he fought bravely or not, as for his body." "Village chief, don't worry, if someone dies in battle, I will definitely find a way to send their ashes back.” "No, no need, bury where you died in battle. There is no need to send the ashes back. I used to be a soldier, and you are soldiers now too. Soldiers should die in the frontier. Why should I wrap my body in horsehide? " "Please drink." (End of this chapter)
