Regarding the upgrade of the Anguo County Brigade to an independent regiment, Li Guotao did not have the slightest surprise, because Commander Meng had already had such an idea before, but it was only the devil who suddenly launched a sweep that delayed this matter.However, to Li Guotao's surprise, after the establishment of the Independent Regiment, the Military Region appointed Chang De as the political commissar of the Independent Regiment and Li Guotao as the regiment commander.Li Guotao was directly promoted from the deputy battalion level to the third level of the company to the regimental level."
This" Li Guotao held the telegram in his hand, obviously at a loss."
Why are you still not happy when you are promoted," Chang De said with a smile and patted Li Guotao's shoulder."
I'm happy, I'm happy, I just think it's going up a little faster," Li Guotao said with a smile."
What's going on, it's a war time now, and our Eighth Route Army is developing very rapidly, and all units are rapidly expanding, exceptionally promoted, and there are not a few examples of even promotions.Let's talk about Division Commander Yang, he was not directly promoted from the regiment commander to the division commander at the beginning, and such an upgrade speed is really fast. ”Changde said with a rare and strange look.Li Guotao nodded and said, "It's just that I've always been your deputy, and you're in charge of everything, but now that I'm suddenly asked to be the head of the regiment, I'm really a little uncomfortable." ”"Haha, if you want to be lazy this time, there's no way.The regiment commander is in charge of the army, the political commissar is in charge of life, we have a clear division of labor, and I will be able to relax a lot in the future. ”Chang De laughed and said.Li Guotao couldn't help but glance at Changde, and said angrily, "It's not so easy if you want to be lazy."
Okay, don't talk so much useless, let's discuss the reorganization of the troops" Changde smiled and said, "That's not simple, the first team, the second team and the third team, all expanded into the first battalion, the second battalion, and the third battalion."
The machine gun team was expanded into a machine gun battalion. ”Li Guotao nodded and said, "Three infantry battalions, each battalion has three companies, one battalion needs almost four hundred people, and the machine gun battalion can be expanded to three hundred and fifty people for the time being, so if you calculate it, only these four battalions are 1,550 people." ”Chang De nodded and said, "The original guard squad was reorganized into a guard platoon, and the staffing can be tentatively set at fifty people.The mine squad was expanded to a company level with more than 100 personnel. ”Li Guotao nodded and said, "Then expand the mine squad into a special service company, and the staffing is tentatively set at one hundred."
In this way, it is 1,700 people, plus some logistics personnel, it is estimated that the entire regiment needs 1,800 people, and we only have about 700 people now, a shortfall of more than 1,000 people.This task of recruiting troops has been entrusted to you, the political commissar, and I would like to see where you go to recruit more than 1,000 people for me. ”Chang De couldn't help frowning, "This is indeed a bit difficult, but we are not in a hurry, we can always recruit people slowly, and we can build the framework of each unit first." ”"Oh, I almost forgot, there is also a special combat team, I plan to expand the special combat team to a hundred people, and now there are more than thirty people left in the special combat team, and the missing people can be selected from those veterans in the past."
Li Guotao suddenly spoke.Chang De nodded and said, "After this period of fighting, I really understand the important role that the special combat forces you mentioned before can play on the battlefield, so I raise my hands in favor of the expansion of the special combat team." ”Li Guotao nodded and said, "Regarding the special combat team, I am in charge of it."
However, I have another proposal, I want to set up a gun repair shop to repair damaged guns, and also to produce mines, grenades and other weapons and equipment. ”Changde nodded and said, "That's a good idea, but we don't have so many professionals right now." ”Li Guotao sighed and said, "I can only think of a way to do this." ”"Hmm," Changde nodded and said, "But according to what you say, our entire regiment will need almost two thousand people."
The two main regiments of the military sub-division, each regiment is only more than 1,000 people, are we too big this time?"
"Is it big?"
Li Guotao shook his head and said, "The current situation is that the enemy is strong and we are weak, and if we want to completely defeat the Japanese and drive the little devils out of the country, we must develop and grow rapidly."
If there are conditions, let alone 2,000 people, it is better to develop to 20,000 people, or even 200,000 people, then it would be good" "Having said that, how can this recruitment matter be so easy" Chang De said with a look of embarrassment."
Then I don't care, anyway, this matter is left to you."
Li Guotao said unceremoniously.Chang De shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Then I can only say that I try my best to recruit more people" Li Guotao nodded, suddenly frowned, sighed and said, "I suddenly remembered the matter of Koujia Village again, hundreds of ordinary people let these little devils kill like this." ”Changde also sighed helplessly, and said angrily, "Things have happened, and we can't change them, I really hope that all these little devils will be driven out of the country as soon as possible." ”Li Guotao nodded and said, "The tragedy that has happened, we can't do anything about it."
But it's not too late to make amends, and we must find ways to try to prevent such tragedies from happening again. ”"Then do you have any good ideas?"
Chang De asked with a frown.Li Guotao sighed and said, "The current situation is that the enemy is strong and we are weak, so at most we are trying to avoid such a tragedy."
I have two ideas: First, the militia organizations in each village must be developed and established as soon as possible, and even if it is too late, the militia must be arranged to stand guard and stand guard, so that even if the little devils launch a surprise attack, the militia can provide early warning in time and organize the masses to move, so that the losses of the masses can be minimized. ”Chang De nodded and said, "This proposal is good, we have been paying close attention to the construction of militia organizations in various villages before, but because we have only been in the Hebei region for a short time and our influence is limited, this has led to the formation of militia organizations in various places has been hindered and has not been fully carried out."
This time, we have won the victory of the anti-sweep, and the prestige of our Eighth Route Army has been established, and I believe that the work will be smoother in the future. ”Li Guotao smiled and nodded, and said, "This matter should also be counted as the work of your political commissar, then this matter will be handed over to you." ”"This is also my job, then I want to ask you, what did you give me everything, what do you want to be your big shopkeeper" Chang De said with a dissatisfied face.aa2705221:
