After separating from He Yunfu, Yang Yuanshan returned to his company headquarters and immediately called Xu Shaobai, Han Yang and Zhao Li.
"Company commander!"
"Company commander!"
"Company commander!"
The three of them came in front and back.
Asking them to sit down separately, Yang Yuanshan asked Xu Shaobai:
"Shaobai, Han Yang, how are our losses in this battle? Have they been counted?"
"Well, we just finished counting and rushed the seriously injured to the headquarters field hospital.
Three battles in one day, we suffered heavy casualties. "
Xu Shaobai's face was a little heavy.
Yang Yuanshan experienced these battles personally. He actually saw the casualties of the soldiers, and nodded to comfort him:
"There is no other way. We have achieved such great results, and casualties are inevitable. We killed five to six hundred little Japs in one day. The comrades who died in the battle are enough honor."
"Yeah. That's true. This time we killed 178 people, seriously injured 225 people, and there were two to three hundred others with minor injuries."
Xu Shaobai named a few figures, which immediately made Yang Yuan's mountain look very ugly.
The total number of soldiers killed and seriously injured in the battle was 400.
It can almost be said that the number of casualties and killed Japs is one to one. This is the result of them using artillery and heavy machine guns to bully the Japs!
He had to admit that the little devil was indeed difficult to deal with now.
Seeing Yang Yuanshan's ugly expression, Han Yang quickly explained:
"Company Commander, the bombing by those two bombers caused us a lot of casualties. They killed and injured dozens of our people at that time."
Yang Yuanshan nodded when he heard this and said helplessly:
"Now our company of 1,000 people only has more than 600 people left. We also need to deduct the people from the health team and the logistics platoon who cannot fight. After this calculation, there are only more than 500 people who can fight, including the wounded. !”
Xu Shaobai quickly said:
"Didn't we capture those two hundred or two Japs? Tomorrow I will hold a public trial and a grievance meeting, and try to absorb and transform a hundred or so of them."
"Well, this is what it should be. Thank you for your hard work, Shaobai. Please hurry up and do it.
In addition, I brought back a company of veterans from the new regiment, and the regiment leader also promised to give me 50 people, so that we could barely make do with it and fill up the establishment again.
You can also go to surrounding villages to recruit soldiers. Our company has enough weapons and equipment, so the more soldiers the better! "
"yes!"
At this time, Han Yang suddenly said:
"The company commander, Niu Geng, the deputy platoon leader of the cavalry platoon, died."
"What? How come?"
Yang Yuanshan asked in surprise.
This was the first platoon-level officer to die since he established the special agent company!
"While attacking the gang of Japs who came out of the Huting stronghold, Niu Geng was hit by a machine gun bullet and died on the spot."
Han Yang introduced.
"Hey, Shaobai, remember to report the list of fallen soldiers to the regiment headquarters and ask the political commissar to apply for martyrs for them!"
Yang Yuanshan sighed.
"If the earthen pot is not broken outside the well, the general will inevitably die in battle." Although the sacrifice of Niu Geng is a pity, it is also a helpless thing.
…
After talking about the casualties, Yang Yuanshan asked about the seizures:
"Zhao Li, have all the seizures been accounted for?"
Speaking of seizures, Xu Shaobai and Han Yang also cheered up. They both knew that a lot had been seized this time, but the specific number was not clear.
Zhao Li took out a small notebook from his arms and began to read:
"In terms of the weapons and ammunition seized, there are 312 38-type rifles, 208 Hanyang-made rifles, and a few medium- and formal-standard, shuilianzhu, and old sleeves. There are a large number of various bullets. We haven't finished counting them. There are bastard pistols. Box, big-eyed box—"
Yang Yuanshan quickly interrupted:
"Stop talking about these, just talk about light and heavy machine guns, cannons, and grenades."
Yang Yuanshan has no interest in rifles and pistols at all, and he doesn't like them at all!
When Zhao Li heard this, he immediately ignored these words and continued to read:
"In terms of artillery, we captured two cannons with long barrels, four Type 94 37mm rapid-fire guns, two Type 41 75mm mountain guns, and ten Type 92 infantry guns, and 22 grenades were seized. .
I estimate that there are several thousand rounds of artillery shells of various calibers, and there is no time to carefully count them. "
"so much?"
Xu Shaobai and Han Yang were both shocked.
With so many cannons, it would be enough to form an artillery regiment!
It's so scary!
Xu Shaobai couldn't help but asked suspiciously:
"Why do the little devils store so many cannons in a small Huting stronghold?"
Yang Yuanshan felt guilty and quickly fooled:
"Haha, who knows!
We didn’t capture the little devil either, otherwise we could have asked. "
Because of Yang Yuanshan's consistent style, the soldiers of the special agent company never thought of keeping prisoners.
Any kid who is still alive is captured and sent directly back to his hometown.
Zhao Li quickly explained:
"Although so many cannons have been captured, the regiment commander and regiment commander Ding have just taken away most of them."
Xu Shaobai was a little confused and asked quickly:
"what happened?"
"Well, I arranged it.
The regiment leader wanted to create an artillery battalion, so I gave him a French M1897 75mm cannon, two Type 94 37mm rapid-fire cannons and six Type 92 infantry cannons.
In order to thank our special agent company, the regiment leader gave us 50 veterans. "
Yang Yuanshan explained.
Upon hearing this, everyone present wanted to cover their mouths and chuckle.
Emotions Yang Yuanshan said before that this is how the 50 veterans supported by the regiment came.
Han Yang asked again:
"Company commander, how many guns have been replaced by the company of the new regiment?"
"Not much, just two Type 92 infantry cannons."
Yang Yuanshan made an understatement.
"So in our capture this time, we only have one cannon, two rapid-fire cannons, two mountain cannons, and two infantry cannons left?"
Han Yang felt that the gap was a bit big.
"Isn't this enough?
Including our original cannon, our company now has twenty cannons!
In addition to the headquarters artillery regiment, even the division commander's artillery battalion is not as good as ours, right? "
Yang Yuanshan couldn't help but want to knock this guy. He was a rich man who had lived for too long and was a little drifting.
Hearing what he said, Han Yang immediately grinned.
But he didn't know that with these cannons, Yang Yuanshan had a headache. There were not enough artillery!
Originally, the special agent company had three Type 41 75mm mountain guns, four Type 92 infantry cannons, three Type 97 81mm direct-fire infantry cannons, two 90mm light mortars, and one 60mm mortar, a total of 13 pieces. gun.
Now there are 7 more, and there are also powerful cannons and mountain cannons.
This artillery firepower can defeat the artillery battalion of Chu Yunfei's 358th Regiment!
The trouble is, with so many artillery pieces, it’s impossible to function without a battalion of artillery!
Xu Shaobai was also shocked when he heard Yang Yuanshan say that the spy company now had 20 guns.
He has been in the army for several years, and he has never seen a company with so many cannons!
Let alone a company, there are no battalions, regiments, or even brigades!
He has also heard about the artillery strength of each of our six brigades.
How can there be a brigade that can produce 20 guns?
Thinking about it, he felt a little shaken.
This secret service company is too rich!
