Chapter 48 Expansion

Li Yong's words were very inflammatory, and these new liberation fighters were very happy to see the company commander treating them as their own, and they no longer called Li Yong a commander like before, but called Li Yong a company commander along with several veterans in charge of training in the recruit platoon.

Li Yong felt the changes in these soldiers, of course he was happy in his heart, and continued: "You can't always be in the recruit platoon, after two days, everyone will be divided into each main platoon, don't carry the rifles, we captured more than 50 submachine guns last time, this time it is indispensable, it is estimated that we have captured more than 100 submachine guns, and there are also bullets, how many can you carry and watch by yourself, and there are light machine guns, which of you is willing to resist, comrades, what do you say I arrange like this?" If you have any opinions, we are the best troops, it is a good thing to put forward opinions, if your opinions are good, you will be rewarded. ”

Why did Li Yong say this, as the old saying goes, three stinkers are Zhuge Liang, everyone picks up materials and the flame is high, one person's thinking is limited, and it is also a glorious tradition of our army to use our brains to find a way together, and the soldiers have good opinions to adopt of course.

Hearing Li Yong say this, these new liberation fighters knew that the company commander really regarded them as brothers, and they all said that they had no opinion, and it was best to arrive early and be assigned to each platoon.

When Li Yong came to the baggage platoon, he saw that the more than 30 people were busy with their legs facing the sky, their legs and stomachs were twisted, and even the platoon leader Sun Quanhou was sweating.

All kinds of materials, ammunition, and food had to be arranged in different categories, and the workload was quite large, and Li Yong thought that there would be more materials for the spy company in the future, and this was enough manpower, so it was time to add some more people to them.

Seeing that the company commander was coming, everyone came to say hello, Li Yong asked, "How is it, how does it feel to be fighting a battle this time?" ”

Everyone replied in a gossipy manner: "Company commander, the enemy at this grain station is bearish enough, and it didn't take care of it much, and at the beginning it dealt with us for a while, and then the comrades of the machine gun platoon and the artillery platoon went, and the heavy machine gun was on the plane, only a few times suddenly, and the artillery platoon smashed two shells into it, and they all surrendered. ”

At that time, the miscellaneous troops of the Kuomintang in the northwest had not seen much of the world, and it was strange to see that the team of the Eighth Route had heavy machine guns and small artillery, and it was no wonder that they were not afraid, in fact, Gao Xiang and their platoon only fired two cannons, and against such an enemy, Gao Xiang was idle and wasted by firing one more cannon, and smashing two shells into it was considered to give them face.

Li Yong said with a smile: "It can't be compared so much, your task is also very important, if you don't fight well, let the enemy rush out, we will suffer from the enemy on our backs, and other platoons will be in danger, and you will also fight when others fight, and you have to clean up the materials when others rest, this work will be tiring, but comrades, don't worry, our replatoon will be expanded soon, and then comrades will be able to relax." ”

Hearing Li Yong say that he wanted to expand, everyone came over and asked how many people he had expanded. Li Yong: "I haven't discussed this with the instructor yet, my initial idea is to expand to 60 people, what do you think?" Everyone happily said, "Great, I'm worried about not having enough manpower, but this time it's good." ”

Li Yong asked the platoon commander Sun Quanhou again, how was the inventory of the seized materials this time? Are there any special gadgets? Sun Quanhou is 32 years old this year, the oldest when the spy company was formed, and he is 13 years older than Li Yong.

Seeing Li Yong asking, he said: "The materials and ammunition have not been counted, there are too many, and tomorrow will be enough, the gadgets you said have been prepared for you in advance, you can take a look." ”

After saying that, he took out a few things, Li Yong felt that his eyes lit up when he saw it, they were all good things, it turned out that Lao Sun prepared two small pistols, two pairs of binoculars and two pens for Li Yong.

The gun is the American Browning 1900 type, commonly known as the gun brand in China, from the Red Army period to the anti-Japanese period until the later Liberation War, the weapons of various countries in China are like the World Exposition, pistols in addition to the German production of low-level officers to wear combat Mauser pistols is barge guns, there are also senior officers with guns, according to the performance and characteristics of these pistols Chinese people make up a smooth call: a gun, two horses, three flowers, four snakes, five dogs, open mouth Deng.

It means that the best small gun is the Browning 1900 type from the United States, because there is a small pistol logo on the grip, so the Chinese name is the gun brand picker, and then the horse brand picker, the flower mouth picker, the snake brand picker, the dog brand kicker and the mouth kick.

Sometimes misrepresented as an open-mouth lamp, the open-mouth kick is actually a reference to the German M1934 7.65mm pistol, which features a fully open sleeve front and a fully exposed upper part of the barrel, making it look like the mouth is open from the front.

The kick is to describe the gun throwing the shell neatly and neatly, he adheres to the consistent characteristics of German firearms, the processing quality is good, and it is generally the sidearm of middle and senior officers. In a movie "Little Soldier Zhang Ga" that everyone has seen, Gazi seized an open-mouth kick.

Lao Sun took out two guns, the Browning 1900 type is the first semi-automatic pistol to enter China, and it was used a lot before the liberation, and Liu Zhidan, the founder of the northern Shaanxi base area, used this kind of pistol before his death.

The telescope is a portable eight-fold zoom telescope for the U.S. military, and the pen is a Parker gold pen, Li Yong hurriedly put a few things in his pocket, and then said to Lao Sun: "It's all good things, and he took them all." ”

Sun Quanhou told Li Yong a little funny, it was originally prepared for him, and others didn't want it, and the comrades liked the long-range repeating shell guns and submachine guns, and they were not interested in this kind of thing.

Li Yong, who returned to the company headquarters, gave Wang Chengde a pair of binoculars, and then the two discussed the establishment of the troops, and after discussion, announced at the cadre meeting in the evening that in view of the good performance of the recruit platoon this time, the decision is as follows:

First, 20 people were transferred from the recruit platoon to the artillery platoon, and each squad of the artillery platoon was increased to 12 people, and the platoon commander and deputy platoon commander totaled 50 people.

Second, 20 people were transferred from the recruit platoon to the machine gun platoon, and the machine gun platoon increased to 12 people per squad, and the whole platoon was also 50 people.

Third, 22 people were transferred from the recruit platoon to the baggage platoon, and the baggage platoon was expanded from 38 to 60 people, and the expanded baggage platoon was already the largest platoon in the whole company.

Fourth, 10 older and weaker people were transferred from the recruit platoon to the cooking class, and the cooking class was expanded from 20 to 30 people.

5. Forty people were transferred from the recruit platoon to the infantry platoon, each platoon was supplemented with eight people, and the infantry platoon after the replenishment was 14 people per squad, and the whole platoon was 58 people.

The number of members of the Sixth Health Brigade has been expanded from 10 to 17, and each platoon should pay attention to collecting sanitary equipment and medicines after the battle.

The personnel of the seven platoons were all equipped with submachine guns, except for those in the cooking squad and the sanitary team, and one light machine gun was added to each of the five infantry platoons, bringing the total number of light machine guns to 12 in each infantry platoon.

Eight machine gun platoon, artillery platoon, and reconnaissance platoon each allocated six shell guns, to the cooking squad allocated three shell guns, squad leader and two deputy squad leaders each one, these three people are the old cooks when the spy company started, Li Yong wants to make them happy, although there is no combat mission, but the back is also majestic, in addition to the army captured more and more soldiers, most of the personnel of the cooking squad are also prisoners, let a few squad leaders carry a shell gun also increase a bit of prestige.
