Chapter 670: Replenishment of equipment is here


The artillery company directly under the regiment of the supplementary regiment was ordered to be organized, and it was also the only unit that could be organized under the existing conditions, and the infantry battalions, infantry companies, and companies directly under the communications, baggage, and engineer companies could not be organized for the time being, and Zhang Wei could not give orders to the officers to take up their posts, the reasons were very simple, one was the lack of troops, and the total strength of the regiment was now about 1,300 people, and the strength was too thin to enable Zhang Wei to organize infantry battalions and companies, and second, there was a lack of training, and it was necessary to allocate combat units on a large scaleThe basis is that there are qualified combat soldiers, and at the end of the training of the officers and men of the regiment, the infantry battalions, infantry companies and directly subordinate companies of the regiment cannot have a foundation for establishment.

According to Zhang Wei's idea of army building, after the supplementary regiment from Guizhou and the supplementary soldiers from the Guangxi Wounded Management Department arrive, all the soldiers who have been supplemented and the soldiers of the original second supplementary regiment will be combined, mixed together, and organized into several recruit companies for training.

After the training of the supplementary troops is completed, the supplementary soldiers who have completed the training will be disrupted again, and then the new recruits and the soldiers of the old teaching brigade will be evenly distributed to each infantry battalion company and directly subordinate company to ensure a balanced combat effectiveness.

To put it bluntly, it is to train the recruits in a unified manner, disrupt the distribution for the second time after the training, and finally build the army and divide the company into companies for the soldiers of the whole regiment.

The situation of the newly established artillery company directly under the regiment is slightly different, and this company can be formed now, because the regiment still has this ability to make up the strength of an artillery company with just this one company, and besides, this artillery company directly under it will be expanded from the mortar platoon of Dong Erli's original teaching brigade, and it has a certain foundation.

Zhang Wei believes that this artillery company, which is equipped with anti-aircraft guns purchased at a large price, is still necessary to make the company an army in advance.

After the order was issued, Zhang Wei drew out the platoon of the mortar platoon of the heavy firepower squadron of the teaching brigade as a whole, and ordered Ye Zhenhua to select a strong 150 men from among the more than 700 officers and men of the 2nd Supplementary Regiment who are now being trained.

Ye Zhenhua handed over this group of soldiers to Dong Erli for training to learn the use and operation of the 14-year-old anti-aircraft gun of the Liao-made and the 82-year mortar of the 20th year of the People's Republic.

Of course, Zhang Wei's intention in doing this was naturally to hope that they would be able to exert their due combat strength on the battlefield in the future, so that the Japanese could see the power of the anti-aircraft guns and bombard the Japanese army with the artillery made in the Fengtian Arsenal.

Two days later, the military headquarters of the Fifth Army transferred supplementary equipment and ammunition from the Quanzhou armory to the supplementary second regiment, and in Zhang Wei's anticipation, it was finally transported to the camp of the supplementary second regiment.

There are no basic infantry weapons such as medium-formal, Czech-type, and 24-type heavy machine guns, grenadiers, and gun grenades in the hands of the infantry, and no matter how many flat-fire guns are in vain, this is more weapons and equipment than a regiment organized by the 27th of the People, filling the weapons warehouse that replenishes the second regiment, and the military uniforms, equipment, and military shoes of a regiment of men and horses are all there.

The warehouses of the second regiment were no longer empty.

Zhang Wei and the officers stood in the weapons warehouse that had just finished loading, the dark green ammunition box and the iron box were piled up with two weapons warehouses and two ammunition warehouses, and the warehouse was filled with the smell of gun oil.

The new rifle body emitted a burst of killing breath in the warehouse, Zhang Wei, who held the gun, felt the cold, because the gun oil was not applied and the gun body was a little dry, Zhang Wei was very satisfied, in terms of the newness and grip of this rifle, it was definitely a 100% new rifle.

"Tuanzuo, the army is not thin on us, these more than 1,000 79 Zhongzheng are all newly manufactured in Chongqing, and they didn't stay in the armory of our Fifth Army for a few days before they were pulled into the regiment."

Qiu Wei grinned.

"Thank you for your kindness."

Zhang Wei put the gun back in the box, rushed in the direction of the military headquarters of the Fifth Army, and made a fist salute.

The status of the supplementary regiment in the middle is one grade lower than that of the field infantry regiment, and the weapons used are basically the old equipment eliminated by the field infantry regiment, which is no exception to the Fifth Army.

"Qiu Wei, have you counted the specific number, this ordnance department is enough, and you won't even give out a list of equipment to be sent."

It's a good thing to get the equipment, but the only thing that makes Zhang Wei a little dissatisfied is that the officers and soldiers of the Ordnance Department who escorted the equipment were quite impatient when they were transporting the equipment, and the attitude of the officers who escorted them was not very good, which made Zhang Wei slightly unhappy It was so busy that the list of the number and model of weapons was not given to the Second Supplementary Regiment, so the specific number and model of the supplementary weapons and equipment could only be checked by the Second Regiment itself.

"It's been checked."

Qiu Wei cleared his throat with high emotions, took a list, and read.

"Tuanzuo, this shot is really generous, all the weapons, more than the number of weapons of the infantry regiment established in the 27th year of the People's Republic of China, belong to the super-establishment equipment, the things given to us, 1,900 79 Zhongzheng rifles, 115 Czech light machine guns, 24 type heavy machine guns 20 pieces, 82 mortars 10 pieces, 27 grenadiers and 28 grenades 65 each, barge guns, 20 rings of 100 pieces, 24 type heavy machine gun anti-aircraft tripods 10, moreover, all the weapons are all new, none of them are second-hand" The number of weapons is indeed over-equipped, rifles, and mortars are all beyond the needs of the first regiment, Zhang Wei said three times in a row, and the small dissatisfaction with the officers and men of the ordnance department has also disappeared, and the excessive allocation of weapons will bring great convenience to the construction of the supplementary second regiment, especially the construction of the new units privately formed by Zhang Wei
