When the officers and men on the ship heard the command, they all began to subconsciously look for the highest-ranking officer of their unit. As a battalion-level cadre of the Mad Dog Brigade, Wang Bo immediately raised his fist and shouted: "All the Mad Dog Brigade is here, look up to me......"

Other battalion-level cadres also stood up, shouted the password loudly, and then quickly formed a three-row horizontal line, many of which were small queues, and those who were many of them were automatically filled.

They are all grassroots cadres and non-commissioned officers of various units, with many years of experience in leading troops, and in just a short time, several neat three-row horizontal formations are lined up on the deck. All the officers and men stood there in a standard military posture with marching bags on their backs.

After a battalion-level cadre of an overseas brigade finished sorting out the queue, he shouted at Wang Bo: "Lao Wang, you are the commander on duty......

Wang Bo didn't shirk when he heard this, he immediately stood opposite everyone, and tapped the vanguard in the middle queue with his hand, and the non-commissioned officer immediately raised his right hand high.

Then Wang Bo shouted loudly: "It's all there, look left and right...... Look forward...... Tidy up your attire ...... "Everyone immediately straightened their military hats according to Wang Bo's command, checked whether the military uniforms were neat, and smoothed out the wrinkles on the front of the armed belt as much as possible.

At this time, several senior officers of the Far East Army walked out of the cabin one after another, Wang Bo turned his head to look, and couldn't help but feel excited, he saw that the leader was actually Lin Hua, chief of staff of the Military Commission.

Immediately shouted loudly: "It's all there...... Align left and right...... Look forward...... At ease...... Standing ......"

After finishing the queue, he immediately ran to Lin Hua, chief of staff of the Military Commission, and then stood up and saluted, and reported loudly: "Comrade Chief of Staff, the whole unit has been completed, please instruct ......."

Lin Hua returned a military salute. Then he walked to the front of the queue and said to everyone with a serious face: "I am in such a hurry to transfer everyone from all over the country because this mission is special. Because the time is relatively tight, I will make a long story short, after the company's military committee has decided to study and decide, you will be the backbone. The Shanxi guerrilla detachment was formed.

Soon you will be sent to Henan in the Ming Dynasty, where you will carry out a difficult task, and the conditions will be more difficult at the beginning of the formation of the troops. I hope that no matter where you go, you will overcome all difficulties and obstacles, carry forward the glorious traditions of our Far Eastern Army, and maintain a fighting style of being brave and tenacious and not afraid of sacrifice. ”

When he said this, he beckoned an officer next to him to his side, and then continued: "This is Wang Haiyang, the head of your Shanxi guerrilla detachment. From now on, he will be your commander-in-chief. ”

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, although many people present did not know Wang Haiyang, they all knew that this person was the target of the Military Commission's key training. From the commanders of the troops assigned by the Central Military Commission, we can see the degree of importance attached by the Central Military Commission to the Shanxi guerrilla detachment.

Lin Hua turned his head and said with a smile to Wang Haiyang: "Haiyang, I handed them over to you now, you must bring the troops well." ”

Wang Haiyang nodded heavily, and then turned to face everyone. said solemnly: "The detachment is temporarily organized into six squadrons, Wang Bo, Zhang Tiehammer, and Zhao Si...... A few of you interim squadron leaders. Responsible for the management of various squadrons. Rest well tonight, and set off tomorrow morning, with the squadron leaders staying behind and the others disbanding......"

After everyone disbanded, they were led by the sailors on board to rest in the cabin arranged in advance. Wang Bo, Zhang Tiehammer and others all came over. They all saluted Wang Haiyang.

Wang Bo and Zhang Tiehammer greeted each other with a smile: "Old company commander, I didn't expect us to be your subordinates again." ”

Wang Haiyang shook hands with them cordially, exchanged a few words with everyone, and then studied the work of the detachment with a few people these days, and the discipline and precautions for the detachment during the period when it went to Henan by boat. Strict requirements were put forward.

In the evening, all the officers and men of the Shanxi detachment received a notice for each squadron to receive clothing and equipment. In order to prevent the Shanxi guerrilla detachment from exposing the identity of the Far East due to clothing and equipment, the company urgently customized a batch of camouflaged military uniforms and equipment.

The military uniforms of the Shanxi guerrilla detachment are still the standard uniforms of the Far Eastern Army, but the clothes and helmets are painted in a mess of colors, mainly earth yellow and dark yellow. It is also patched irregularly, and there are many small pieces of camouflage net hanging on the clothes and helmets, which look like a group of Hanako on the body at first glance.

In addition, the armor belt, bulletproof vest, grimace mask, multi-functional tactical vest, marching backpack, and military water bottle are also mottled, looking as if they have been soaked in the yellow mud several times, and even the feet have been replaced with earthy yellow high-waisted suede boots.

The armament of the Shanxi guerrilla detachment was also camouflaged as necessary, with each person equipped with a Type 28 revolver, a double-barreled shotgun or a Type 28A rifle, four hand grenades, two smoke grenades, and two gas shells, and the non-commissioned officers were additionally equipped with a short-barreled 40-mm grenade launcher. All the weapons were wrapped in tarpaulins and camouflage nets, and they all looked tattered.

These cadres and non-commissioned officers from various units in the Far East include almost all branches of the Far East Army, such as infantry, engineers, logistics, communications, and political workers. However, for the time being, the unit was not equipped with modern artillery, and was only issued with some small front-loading Tiger guns and small Franky sub-cannons. But they are all forged from stainless steel in the Far Eastern military factories.

Although the appearance is no different from that of the Ming army, the durability of firepower has been improved, the weight of the gun body has been reduced by nearly half, and the power and range of both the gun have been significantly improved.

The military factory will also develop a horsetail grenade for the displaced people of the Shanxi guerrilla detachment. It is an ovoid bomb with a diameter of 10 centimeters, using a cast iron thin-walled shell, and a fuse fire rope is deducted from a small wax hole in the bomb body before use, and ignited with an open flame.

The bullet was filled with black gunpowder and iron sand, and the body of the bomb was engraved with prefabricated vertical and horizontal slots, which would produce nearly 100 prefabricated fragments when it exploded. The bottom of the bullet is knotted with a hemp tail made of brown, about 700~900 mm long, so that it can be thrown out and guided by the hand. The method used is similar to that of a catapult belt, where you can hold the end of the horsetail with your hand, round it and throw it out, and you can also throw it directly with your hand at close range.

The characteristics of the horsetail grenade are that the cost is extremely low, and the production is extremely simple, and even after the Shanxi guerrilla detachment established a base in Luliang Mountain, it can also use local methods to produce them in large quantities. After a period of training, they will be able to form a grenadier group of two or three people, which will become a sharp weapon for the attack and defense of the Shanxi guerrilla detachment.
