The next day.
After breakfast, Shen Quan called Zhang Dabiao, Deng Hu and Qi Dongshui to the regiment war room.
Yesterday, the new regiment of the First World War recruited 430 puppet troops from Wanjia Town and has initially formed a basic strength.
Although there was only one battalion, Shen Quan still maintained the positions of Zhang Dabiao and Deng Hu as battalion commanders. At the same time, he appointed Qi Dongshui as the commander of the third battalion, responsible for managing the 430 puppet troops after the integration.
The first and second battalions each had less than forty soldiers under their command.
Chen Quan looked at Zhang Dabiao and Deng Hu and said: "I will retain your position as battalion commander. You must recruit troops from nearby villages for me in the shortest possible time and pull up the team."
"Now we want money and guns, so we need to send people!"
The two stood up straight and responded: "Yes, leader!"
"Lao Qi, the newly established third battalion is adapted from the puppet army, so in addition to regularly doing their ideological work, you also need to strengthen their training. As for how to train them, I will give you a specific plan."
Qi Dongshui saluted: "Promise to complete the mission!"
Later, Shen Quan gave Zhang Dabiao and Deng Hu two gold bars each and asked them to organize people to recruit troops in surrounding villages and towns.
Chen Quan left Qi Dongshui alone and taught him a quick way to train new soldiers.
After the heavy damage, the new group is slowly regaining its vigorous vitality.
…
at the same time
In the office of the Japanese Supreme Headquarters in North China, Commander Yoshio Shinozuka was smashing things to vent his anger.
"Bagaya road!"
"Bagaya road!"
Seeing Yoshio Shinozuka's anger, more than a dozen Japanese staff officers in the office did not dare to speak, and huddled in a pile and hid in the corner.
"Such important supplies were robbed by eight groups. I want to kill them all."
"Kill them!"
Yoshio Shinozuka roared.
At this moment, a staff officer with the rank of Major came in with a piece of information.
"Your Excellency Commander, the information on the robbery of Wanjia Town and the supply train has been compiled."
This person is Shinozuka Yoshio's junior student, Watanabe Roda. He just graduated from Kyoto Army University. Within two months of arriving in North China, he has already become Shinozuka Yoshio's most effective assistant.
Hearing this, Yoshio Shinozuka looked up at Watanabe Langtian and asked coldly: "Which Eighth Route Army is it?"
Watanabe Langtian replied: "Based on the comprehensive analysis of the intelligence we have, it is the new regiment of the 386th Brigade that killed the Sakata Alliance some time ago."
After hearing the assistant report the situation, Yoshio Shinozuka gradually calmed down: "This troop again? What is so special about this troop that it caused such serious damage to our Imperial Japanese Army in just a few days?" harm?"
Watanabe Langtian said again: "Your Excellency, Commander, we have also collected some information about this unit."
"Speak quickly!" Yoshio Shinozuka said coldly.
"This combat unit called the New Regiment is an out-of-staff unit of the Eighth Route Army. It is not in the order of their national battles and is a miscellaneous unit."
"But it is precisely such a low-quality, miscellaneous unit that caused us to suffer heavy losses one after another." Yoshio Shinozuka said angrily: "Has their commander found out?"
Watanabe Langtian: "I found out that the leader is Shen Quan. He was once the deputy leader of the new regiment. He was promoted to leader after the battle in Cangyunling."
I have to say that the little devil's intelligence system is quite good. In a few days, the general situation of the new group was investigated clearly.
After three dealings, Shen Quan's name finally appeared in Shinozuka Yoshio's ears.
