After sending Mao Zhaiwu away, Luo Ying's expression became serious, and there was even endless murderous intent hidden in his eyes - he is here!
This man is naturally the new commander of the East China Expeditionary Force, Prince Asaka Palace, and the real murderer behind the Jinling Massacre. The key is that this old boy escaped justice after the war because he was a member of the royal family. Shu Shu lived to be 94 years old;
Among the people Luo Ying wants to kill the most since time travel, this old boy definitely ranks first, even ahead of his cheap nephew!
After Mao Zhaiwu told him this information, he even had the idea of leading a lone army to Shencheng to chop up the old Japanese;
But his reason told him that he couldn't do this. Not only would he not be able to harm the old devil at all, but he would be hit by the lone army he had finally managed to pull up.
Judging from the information provided by Mao Zhaiwu, the old Japanese had not only the newly landed 102nd Division, but also the 101st Division transferred back from Zhejiang Province. These were two ad hoc divisions with an army of more than 50,000, forming a The lone army brigade was attacked from two sides;
If the lone brigade retreats without getting better, the old Japanese will command the 101st and 102nd divisions to attack them and drive them northwest.
When the time comes, Luo Ying will dispatch the Sixth Division smoothly. Once the three divisions are surrounded, Luo Ying will not be able to drive a few nails even if he is covered in iron!
“It’s time to stop when you’re done!
Hu Xiaoman, pseudo-electricity. "
Following Luo Ying's order, a message was sent out to gather troops. In addition to leaving a small number of troops to continue to confuse the Japanese, the main force used the cover of night to stride toward Kunshan. The city retreated, and several key members rushed back to the brigade headquarters for a meeting.
As Li Shuo and others returned one after another, the previously deserted brigade headquarters became lively again;
After not seeing each other for a few days, as if it had been three autumns, several old brothers greeted each other. It was polite on the surface, but in fact they were showing off.
"Old Li, I heard that you have made a fortune this time. Not only have you gained a lot of weight, but you have also gained a lot of good things."
"Old Zhou, please stop staring at my three melons and two dates. As for the invisible team behind you, those who didn't know better thought it was Brigadier Zhou who came back from the autumn wind."
Zhou Shuzhuang chuckled. Although he was still modest and not as good as the 881 regiment, the grin that almost reached the back of his head had betrayed him;
Although he is still a regiment commander now, he is living the life of a brigade commander. He has no shortage of soldiers, horses, and men, except for a pair of Major General cards——
"Zhou Shuzhuang, what are you thinking of? Didn't you see that I only have one star on my shoulder? How about I lend it to you for fun?"
Luo Ying seemed to be able to see through his thoughts at a glance, which made Zhou Shuzhuang feel guilty for a while, and he quickly waved his hands and said:
"The brigade commander was joking. I am very content with my rank of colonel. My classmates are still ranked as majors and captains."
"It's good to know. We are not fighting for this gold star. Now that everyone is here, let's have a meeting."
Seeing that Brother Zhou Shuzhuang's tails were about to rise to the sky, Luo Ying calmly suppressed them to save them from being proud.
Seeing that everyone was sitting upright, Luo Ying said directly:
"Every unit should report its own wealth. It's all hidden and hidden. I, the brigade commander, also know my own family wealth. How many things can I do with my family wealth?"
Li Shuo first reported:
"The 881st Regiment currently has 7,752 personnel, 11 92 infantry guns, 17 mortars, 3 75mm mountain guns, 7 combat defense guns, 15 anti-aircraft machine guns, and more than 3,000 rounds of various types of artillery shells;
The reason there are so many artillery is because we defeated a Japanese transport team and seized two vehicles of equipment, including anti-aircraft machine guns and mountain cannons that are usually difficult to obtain.
We annihilated 518 Japs and seized more than 1,000 long and short guns, as well as bullets, grenades, medicines, and supplies. There were so many that we couldn’t keep track of them all for a while. We brought them back and counted them again. We also seized 5 cars and 60 mules and carriages. There are many cars, but this one is not finished yet. "
Luo Ying nodded at him, and then motioned for Zhou Shuzhuang to continue. Zhou Shuzhuang grinned and said:
"I didn't hit the Japanese baggage train like Lao Li, but when we collected the defeated troops, we took over an arms warehouse. These are the government's war preparation warehouses, guarded by a battalion and hidden in a hill;
After learning that we were the lone brigade, the garrison battalion commander handed over the warehouse to us, which contained 24 82mm mortars and more than 5,000 artillery shells;
There are 500 MP28 submachine guns, more than 1,000 boxes of submachine gun ammunition, 16 Maxim heavy machine guns, more than 300 boxes of heavy machine gun ammunition, more than 3,000 light machine guns and rifles, and thousands of boxes of various types of bullets and long-handled grenades.
This battalion has also all joined our lone army brigade. Our regiment currently has 8,750 personnel. In addition to the equipment taken over, each person has a gun. In addition, more than 600 Japanese soldiers have been annihilated, and a large amount of ammunition and supplies have been seized..."
Now the smile on Luo Ying's face could not be concealed at all. He did not expect that so many defeated soldiers were scattered in the occupied area, but after thinking about it carefully, he was relieved. In another time and space, there were more than 50,000 defeated soldiers scattered in the area. , and was finally wiped out after the Japanese had their hands free;
Most of them were massacred, and a small number surrendered to the Japanese and became puppet troops. One hundred thousand people were lost in the rout. The real casualties were a small number, but the big ones were defeated. These were the elite veterans who survived the Songhu battlefield.
There are only a few cowards among the 700,000 elite soldiers on the Songhu battlefield. This is the blood of the Kuomintang army, and they are also high-spirited. Think about the more than 50,000 Gui army soldiers, who were wiped out in a few days and all fell on the way to charge;
After losing 400,000 veterans in Songhu, the Kuomintang army's combat effectiveness and fighting will have dropped a lot, and their blood has been wiped out in one battle.
In this time and space, due to Luo Ying's butterfly effect, the losses of the Kuomintang army were much less, and the main force of the Guangxi 21st Army was preserved. Although tens of thousands of people were lost in the subsequent rout, the organizational structure was preserved, so Up to now, they are still holding back the Japs on the defense line, forcing the Japs to increase their troops again.
The Battle of Songhu basically resulted in a loss ratio of three to one, with the Kuomintang army losing more than 200,000 people and the Japanese losing more than 80,000 people;
This time, the Lone Army Brigade gathered nearly 20,000 more people, saving a lot of losses for the National Army.
Other ministries also reported their existing personnel, and the discrepancies were not big, because they basically did not participate in collecting the broken troops, but only cooperated with the actions of the two main regiments. Anyway, they also had their share in the main group's gathering of broken troops. They were all a collective, not It must be distinguished so clearly.
After finding out his family background, Luo Ying started to talk about the business:
"Brothers, let the Chief of Staff first announce an order from the Military and Administrative Department."
Upon hearing this, everyone stood up and listened to the order. This was also a routine operation of the Kuomintang army, and everyone was familiar with the routine.
Xie Zhongyuan loudly read out the order of the Ministry of General Affairs on upgrading the Solitary Army Brigade to a Class A Brigade, and everyone's face showed joy;
The brigade commander was promoted to deputy division commander of the 88th Division and commander of the lone brigade. The establishment was increased from two regiments to three regiments, which equals one-third more positions at once. Many people will be promoted, so everyone's face is full of smiles. Unable to conceal my joy;
Even if he doesn't get promoted this time, his old brothers who have followed him through life and death are all promoted, and they are equally happy.
Anyone who leads troops knows that as long as their subordinates have smooth promotion channels, the troops will be easy to lead. If they all stand still, there will be more people lying flat and it will be difficult to lead the team.
After Xie Zhongyuan finished reading the order from the Ministry of Military Affairs, Luo Ying took over again and said:
"Brothers, now we have the establishment of three regiments and have recruited a large number of brothers. I have decided to adjust the establishment of all three regiments to Class A regiments, that is, one regiment has three infantry battalions and one machine gun battalion. , including the regiment headquarters, the total number is about 4,000, against a regiment of the Japanese;
It is equipped with 6 mortars, 3 infantry guns, and 6 take-off guns. The missing mine cannons are made from collected gasoline barrels and explosives. This thing is not difficult.
The organizational structure below the battalion level remains unchanged. The battalion still has more than 800 people, so the three infantry regiments have more than 12,000 people. The position of commander of the 883 regiment was taken over by Chen Wu, and Li Zhao continued to serve as the commander of the supplementary regiment.
The brigade headquarters reconnaissance company was upgraded to a reconnaissance battalion, the guard company was upgraded to a guard battalion, the health team was also upgraded to the battalion level, the artillery battalion remained unchanged, and the three companies were increased to four companies, including a mortar company and an infantry artillery company. , a mountain artillery company and a baggage company are no longer equipped with flying thunder cannons;
The whole battalion is a reinforced battalion, with a total strength of 1,200 people, equipped with 6 92 infantry guns, 6 75 mountain guns, and 8 mortars;
The total number of people in the entire brigade without the supplementary regiment is more than 16,500. The remaining personnel are all added to the supplementary regiment, so that the supplementary regiment also increases to more than 3,500 people. The supplementary regiments are all new recruits, and they are all undercover for the time being. They must pay attention to confidentiality and remember the unity with the outside world. Each caliber regiment has 2,200 people, and the entire brigade has about 10,000 people..."
Everyone gasped after hearing this. This was nearly half the number of people in the 87th Division, and could only be matched by the 30,000-person teaching corps in the entire army.
Luo Ying knew that this system could not be hidden from interested people, but he could cover it up if he could;
That's all I admit. A day in hiding is a day, and it's best to be able to cover up the enemy. It's true and false, but I don't admit it anyway.
