"I know everyone is tired, so I won't say any more nonsense." Wen San cleared his throat and got straight to the point.
"We have a lot of people now, but the structure is scattered. We have a lot of weapons, but they lack a reasonable combination. Now we are going to make some simple adjustments and arrangements."
On the way to the temple, Wen San had already made a plan in his mind.
"First of all, we need to set up a cooking class. With so many people, it is impossible to eat dry food all the time. We still need to eat something hot when possible. The leader of the cooking class is Lao Yangtou, and the class members are tentatively 5 people , let him choose soldiers who can cook."
No one spoke on this proposal. Lao Yangtou didn't come over, and the squad leaders had no reason to object. The world is huge, but food is the biggest problem. This problem must be solved.
"We now have a total number of 185 people. The original three basic platoons remain unchanged. If there are insufficient personnel, they can be supplemented by Wang Qiang and others. The number of people in each platoon is tentatively set at 40. When new personnel come in in the future, it can be increased appropriately. "
"In addition, I want to form a new machine gun platoon and an artillery platoon. The machine gun platoon leader will be Lao Wan. The machine gunner and loader will be transferred from each platoon to one person, and the water cooling aspect will be solved by itself. The number is tentatively set at 30 people. I will temporarily serve as the artillery platoon leader, and Guan Heizi will serve as the deputy platoon leader. Later, I will select some smart soldiers to join the artillery platoon, with a total of 20 people."
"In addition, 10 people are assigned to set up a communications class, responsible for conveying various messages and orders. Now the number of people is limited, and the communications class does not seem that important. But I believe that the team will become bigger and bigger in the future, and the communications class is indispensable. of."
"In terms of personnel arrangements, the original platoon leader was Ding Damao, whose nickname was Ding Ding Mao'er. The communications squad leader was Wang Mazi, and the personnel can choose by themselves."
"This time the personnel adjustment is quite large, and the members of each squad and platoon have changed, so everyone first organizes the team, and after the personnel adjustment is completed, important weapon distribution can be carried out."
"By the way, the heavy machine gun platoon and artillery platoon have priority in selecting personnel. Each platoon must cooperate and cannot intentionally detain people. After the personnel deployment is completed, we will also conduct training, and the overall combat effectiveness will definitely not be much worse." Wen San As soon as he finished speaking, everyone immediately took action.
Especially Lao Wan and Guan Heizi, their eyes were shining and they were ready to fish for people.
Wen San also made some adjustments on the hillside before. In fact, we were in such a hurry at the time that we just set up a grass-stage team to facilitate temporary command.
Unexpectedly, dozens of people came later, so naturally we couldn't continue like this.
If the team wants to improve its combat effectiveness, the deployment of personnel must be targeted. Wen San already had a lot of equipment in his hands, and later he got most of the weapons of the Japs squadron. If you just arrange and use it randomly, it will look too unprofessional.
The most important thing is that it cannot exert its due fighting power.
Tintin Mao'er was very happy. He was directly promoted from squad leader to platoon leader. He was still the main platoon in Wen San's hands, and he was quite distinguished. Wen San was originally going to use Zhang Ergou, but considering that Lao Wan would probably pull Zhang Ergou to the heavy machine gun platoon, Wen San brought Tintin Maoer up.
"Then Wang Qiang's combat experience is not bad. You can transfer him to be the squad leader, and Zhu Si will be the squad deputy." Wen San grabbed Tintin Mao'er and gave him a move.
Wang Qiang and Zhu Si brought dozens of people over. Although they were basically stragglers, they were always the leaders of this team. Even for the sake of balancing the team, it is okay to let one of them be the squad leader. What's more, Wang Qiang's combat experience is not weak. He dared to attack the Japanese squadron with a group of rabble. He is also a bloody man.
After a period of fuss, each platoon leader finally selected his own members. Three platoon commanders became five platoon commanders, and there was also an additional cooking class and communications class. The overall framework is built. It's much more pleasing to the eye than the original mess.
The method of bringing the old with the new can also make it easier for the newly joined warriors to grow up, and they will no longer be dispersed by a small team of Japanese soldiers like before.
After the personnel distribution is completed, naturally it is the distribution of firepower that everyone is most looking forward to.
Basic platoon, each row has one heavy machine gun, two light machine guns, and a base number of various bullets. The remaining soldiers each have a 38-meter cap, 30 rounds of bullets, and 3 grenades or melon grenades each. This kind of firepower configuration is already very powerful, and it can definitely distinguish itself from the main force of the Japanese. Think about the past, a main force company only had so much firepower, and some soldiers didn't even have a gun. The guns did not have many bullets, and the Sichuan soldiers were even worse. Few soldiers had more than 10 bullets.
Lao Wan's heavy machine gun platoon is very luxurious, with three heavy machine guns alone. There is one machine gunner and one deputy, one each, as well as a loader and a soldier responsible for watering. Three squads, each with a set of heavy machine guns. In terms of ammunition, it is equipped with two bases, which is more than 3,000 rounds of ammunition.
In addition to heavy machine guns, each squad is also equipped with two light machine guns and a base number of bullets. The main role of the remaining soldiers is to carry ammunition, and each person has a 38-meter cap is indispensable.
This platoon is Wen San's trump card. It can be used intensively according to the situation on the battlefield, or three squads can be decentralized to support other squads. To form a local firepower advantage to achieve the purpose of quickly annihilating the enemy.
Such a luxurious configuration can only be matched by a heavy machine gun company under normal circumstances, and only a regiment-level combat unit can be qualified to equip a heavy machine gun company.
The artillery platoon seemed to have the most ferocious firepower, but in fact it was the most defeated combat unit in Wen San's hands. Although there were 20 people together, only Wen San and Guan Heizi were really interested in playing with the guns. When the others saw the pile of iron lumps, their faces were confused and they didn't know what to do.
"Company Commander, we also have a Type 92 infantry cannon with 12 rounds. This thing is much more powerful than a grenade and has a much longer range." Guan Heizi came up.
The Fukuhara Squadron originally had two Type 92 infantry guns, but one of them was set on fire by Li Baisha's grenade and was destroyed. The situation was urgent and only the usable door was removed.
"I don't know how to use this thing, so I'll put it aside and study it when I have time." Wen San was also a little depressed.
Essentially, the use of the Type 92 infantry gun is similar to that of a mortar. But its power is much greater, and its recoil is greater than that of the 60mm mortar. The specific parameter adjustments must be different.
It was impossible for Wen San to test the cannon, so he could only put this thing aside to eat dust for the time being.
"You first teach everyone how to adjust the grenade and how to aim it. After you are familiar with it, you can then consider other things." Wen San has no time to manage the artillery platoon for the time being, even if he is also the platoon leader.
"Company commander, what are we going to do in the communications class?" Wang Mazi ran over with his people, but he was a little confused.
"It's very simple. Practice running first. As a signal soldier, first of all, you must have good physical fitness and run fast enough. Secondly, you must learn to recognize the road so that you can send messages. You can't lose yourself by running away, right? You must also have some simple protection. Be aware and don’t let the enemy easily find you when you act.”
