Kong Jie left the brigade headquarters an hour later, feeling very happy!
Although it was heartbreaking to hand over the weapons and ammunition to the brigade headquarters, he didn't gain anything.
The independent regiment suffered heavy losses in the encounter with the Bantian Regiment, and the casualties among its cadres were particularly huge. After the cadres supported by the brigade headquarters were in place, Kong Jie finally made up for the missing cadres in the regiment, and finally sent them to the enemy-occupied areas. The six armed workers' teams left six platoon-level cadres vacant again in the independent regiment.
The independent regiment has a weak foundation. All the cadres who can be promoted have been promoted during the last expansion. The remaining squad leaders and deputy platoon leaders are newly promoted from veterans and have not experienced battlefield experience. They must not continue to promote others.
When Kong Jie was worried about how to fill these vacancies, the brigade commander once again transferred five cadres from the brigade headquarters training team to support the independent regiment.
This coincides with what the brigade commander said before: Kong Jie is principled and has an overall view. When encountering good things, he will first think of the brigade headquarters. The brigade headquarters must reciprocate the favor and prevent honest people from suffering...
"Brigadier, I think I underestimated Kong Jie a little!" Looking at Kong Jie's disappearing back, the brigade chief of staff suddenly said this!
"How do you say that?" The brigade commander was curious as to why the chief of staff expressed such emotion.
The chief of staff solemnly explained: "After the death of political commissar Li Wenying, Kong Jie shouldered the responsibility of the leader and political commissar of the Independent Regiment. At that time, the independent regiment lost more than half of its members and was very weak. It had nothing to do with what it wanted. You can imagine the pressure!"
"I am particularly worried that Kong Jie is not capable of taking on such a heavy responsibility. I have been searching for political commissar candidates in my mind and will assign him a political commissar as soon as possible."
"Now it seems that I was worrying too much. Kong Jie is stronger than I thought. Not only did he manage the Independent Regiment on his own, he also developed the Independent Regiment into a well-known main force of our brigade, bringing us one after another. surprise!"
The brigade commander was convinced: "To be honest, I was mistaken myself. I didn't expect that boy Kong Jie to be so capable of leading troops!"
"In comparison, I think Li Yunlong needs a political commissar to take charge of him!"
"I heard that he speaks the truth in the New Youth League, and the League Party Committee has almost become his final say. If there is no political commissar standing by to remind him, mistakes will be made sooner or later."
"I'm not in a hurry over Kong Jie's side."
"He is highly principled and has an overall view of the situation. He never compromises on executing orders from his superiors. He doesn't make many mistakes and will report anything as soon as possible!"
"You and I can rest assured that such an honest person is in charge of the independent group. No one needs to go to him to remind him!"
The chief of staff shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It is too difficult to find a political commissar who can partner with Li Yunlong!"
"This year, that guy Li Yunlong got angry and drove away two political commissars in a row."
"It's all because of various disagreements that I took the initiative to apply for transfer from the new group!"
"You've scolded him many times, but it's basically of no use. After the new political commissar took office, Li Yunlong still went his own way, doing whatever he should do!"
The brigade commander seemed much more optimistic and said confidently: "All hard work pays off. As long as we keep our eyes open at the base, we will definitely be able to find a suitable candidate!"
“I remember that next year’s Anti-Japanese War Congress will send some political cadres, and there may be political commissars among them who can team up with Li Yunlong!”
"The political commissar of the Independent League will not consider it for now. There is a shortage of cadres everywhere now. As long as Kong Jie can manage the Independent League well, let him take charge first!"
At the headquarters of the new regiment, Li Yunlong suddenly trembled and thought to himself: "It must be Kong Er who is scolding me. Isn't he just asking him for 25,000 more bullets? It's been so long and he still takes it to heart. It's really enough." stingy!"
I never thought that I would be targeted by the brigade commander even though I did nothing while staying in the New Regiment...
But he didn't take this matter too seriously and continued to listen to the chief of staff's report with a smile.
After obtaining 25,000 rounds of ammunition from Kong Jie, Li Yunlong rarely became a wealthy landlord.
With the Hanyang-made weapons in one hand and the bullets in the other, all the 38 caps equipped by the entire regiment were replaced by the guard company.
In two days, not only the three main battalions were uniformly equipped with 79-caliber weapons, but the troops directly under the regiment were uniformly equipped with 65-caliber weapons, and the regiment headquarters ammunition depot also had 15,000 rounds of ammunition...
After hearing the good news, Li Yunlong was very happy when he went to bed at night.
The independent regiment's security company was stationed. Huang Yu frowned and fell into deep thought when he came back from the company headquarters.
Starting tomorrow, the security company will officially take over the security work of the regiment headquarters, and will conduct training while performing tasks.
The first guard class lives in the front yard of the regiment headquarters. When there are no combat missions, two soldiers are arranged to stand guard at the regiment entrance every day, while the others conduct training.
When encountering a combat mission, the whole class is on alert together and builds the last line of defense around the regiment to protect the regiment.
As long as there is no fighting, the first squad's mission should be the lightest in the entire company.
But Huang Yu was not happy at all.
After returning to the base area from the enemy-occupied area, he began to think about the issue of training a group of troops.
According to the development trajectory in "Bright Sword", one month after the New Year, the base area will be raided by the Japanese army in a new round, and the "Cang Yunling Counterattack" made famous by Li Yunlong's battle will also start at that time.
As the first and main force of the 386th Brigade, the Independent Regiment will definitely participate in the war, and may even get involved in the counterattack at Cangyunling.
After this calculation, the Japanese had less than two months to prepare for the independent group.
Huang Yu initially wanted to train the first class of guards into special forces.
Even if it doesn't meet the standards of later generations of special forces, it's not bad to be able to achieve 30 to 40% of their combat effectiveness.
Later, upon analysis, I discovered that given the current conditions of the independent group, my dream would never be realized.
The army cannot even guarantee three meals a day, and the fuel and water are even more pitiful. During difficult times, it is common to go without meat for a month or two...
Without enough nutrition and food, the soldiers under his command would definitely not be able to withstand the high-intensity training of the special forces.
The regiment’s medical insurance cannot keep up.
The training of special forces is very intense, and injuries are commonplace.
The troops are short of medicines, especially valuable anti-inflammatory drugs.
Many soldiers suffered gunshot wounds on the battlefield. As long as they are not fatal, they do not need anti-inflammatory drugs if they can, let alone soldiers who were injured due to training.
Huang Yu didn't want his soldiers to lose their lives due to injuries and infections. That would be a big loss.
Weapons, equipment and ammunition cannot keep up.
The troops have limited ammunition and use it every time they fight. It is absolutely impossible for the troops to train with live ammunition.
A qualified special forces soldier fires thousands, if not tens of thousands, of bullets during training.
In the independent regiment, several thousand rounds of ammunition are enough for the troops to fight a small battle, and they will definitely be reluctant to use them for training.
Not to mention the wear and tear of firearms. Weapons have a lifespan. The huge consumption of ammunition means that the special forces have to destroy several guns during training. The independent regiment has a limited number of weapons. There are many soldiers in other troops fighting with cold weapons. It is definitely not possible. Troops will be allowed to disable and disable their weapons during training!
