As a result of this expansion, the strength of each of the three main infantry battalions has more than doubled, and the strength of one company has changed from 90 men in three platoons plus more than 100 people in the company headquarters to 180 men in three platoons, plus some guards and communications troops in the company headquarters, with a strength of more than 200 people.

In addition, Qiao Youhua also formed a mortar platoon and a guard platoon for each battalion.

The heavy machine gun platoon directly under the original battalion headquarters was also expanded into a heavy machine gun fire company, which, together with the mortar platoon, became a powerful firepower support for the battalion-level combat unit.

In the subsequent battles, because the Dragon's Tooth Task Force had to hold on to the Luquan and Feiyunling base areas, the probability of each battalion of the whole regiment fighting with each other alone was much higher than the probability of the whole regiment fighting together.

Therefore, it is very necessary to improve the firepower of the company and platoon, and the machine gun strength of the battalion is already directly under it, and these equipment will play a very important role in future battles.

In addition to some communications troops at the battalion headquarters, the strength of one battalion reached about 800 people, and the total strength of the three battalions was more than 2,400 people.

Today, there are 3,100 recruits and veterans of the Dragon's Tooth Task Force, and after the expansion of the three battalions, there are about 700 people left, including about 400 recruits.

After Qiao Youhua added 100 recruits to the reconnaissance company and the guard company, the remaining 200 or so people were all added, and the artillery company expanded the strength of the artillery company to more than 300 people, and the structure was directly changed to an artillery battalion, which was a unique automobile transport company in the whole regiment.

More than a dozen military trucks were all owned by them.

Since most of the soldiers this time are miners, and their bodies are fine, they don't need to be carefully selected like before, and they are all qualified and excellent soldiers.

After formulating the tasks and orders of the division, the rest were naturally carried out by the main officers of the units directly under each battalion and regiment, and Qiao Youhua, the regiment commander, was rarely idle.

In fact, this expansion is different from the past, this time the Dragon Tooth Task Force has more than 1,500 veterans, the number of recruits is only half of the veterans, a veteran with a recruit is enough, whether it is training or fighting, the situation of the Dragon Tooth Task Force is much better than in history, many resistance army pulls strong Ding.

As for digging trenches and repairing fortifications, most of the miner-born recruits did even better than the dragon tooth veterans.

With the full support and assistance of tens of thousands of people in the city, the progress of the construction of tunnel fortifications in Luquan County has been accelerated a lot.

After Qiao Youhua had a rare lunch, he took Zheng Yunshan and several soldiers of the guard company to patrol around the city, and now that there are more people, the guard company no longer needs to be responsible for city defense and repair, and is responsible for protecting Qiao Youhua's safety.

As soon as he inspected for a short time, a soldier in charge of the city defense ran over and saluted Qiao Youhua and said, "Tuanzao, there is a girl from outside the city, who claims to be surnamed Hu, I want to see you, do you see it or not?" "This soldier is clearly a recruit.

"Is it called Hu Ling'er?" Qiao Youhua asked.

"Yes." The warrior nodded in reply.

"Let's go, there must be news from Brother Wan's side, I'll go see her in person." Qiao Youhua is happy in the shape of the color road.

The warrior wondered in his heart, could it be that girl who looked like a fairy had a privilege? Even the head of the regiment greeted him personally.

When Qiao Youhua rushed to the north gate with Zheng Yunshan and others, he found that Hu Ling'er was riding a snow-white healthy horse, dressed in a fiery red suit, and was waiting patiently outside the city gate.

Seeing Qiao Youhua arrive in person, a hint of surprise flashed in her charming and moving eyes.

"Miss Hu, I haven't seen you for a long time, don't come unharmed." Qiao Youhua said with a smile.

In front of people, Hu Ling'er also had to arch his hand towards Qiao Youhua as a person from the rivers and lakes: "Tuo Qiao, your blessing, you are fine." ”

"It's hot here, it's not a place to talk, so let's get into the city quickly. The warriors defending the city are recruits, so don't be surprised if I haven't seen you. Qiao Youhua said with a solemn hand.

Hu Ling'er turned over and dismounted, and a guard had already gone up to help lead the horse, Hu Ling'er was not polite, and walked side by side with Qiao Youhua towards the city.

A recruit defending the city said: "What is the origin of this girl, our regiment commander actually greeted her personally." ”

"Who knows." Another recruit said.

"Could it be our leader's wife?"

"Nonsense, I heard from the veterans, the regiment commander has two wives in Feiyunling, this is a lover at most."

"What are you doing? Behind the scenes, is the head of the group talking about it, is it fat? A veteran squad leader who had gone to the thatched house to have diarrhea just now ran over and scolded loudly.

Several recruits were immediately silenced.

…………

After returning to the regiment headquarters compound, Zheng Yunshan ordered several soldiers to disperse, and he also went outside to smoke, which created a rare space for Qiao Youhua and the two of them very interestingly.

Qiao Youhua looked at Hu Ling'er with his back to him, smiled evilly at the corner of his mouth, closed the door of the command room with his hand, and then stepped forward to take her into his arms.

Before Hu Ling'er could exclaim, her cherry lips were covered by Qiao Youhua's big mouth, and under Qiao Youhua's fierce attack, she quickly fell into it.

The body writhed, gradually becoming emotional, Qiao Youhua rudely ripped off the red power suit, sniffed the elegant aroma of pepper milk deeply, buried himself in it, and tasted it wantonly.

After some clouds and rain, Qiao Youhua played with the pair of pepper milk that made him linger, and said comfortably: "Why are you back?" Is there any news from Brother Wan? ”

Hu Ling'er's delicate body trembled, and her voice was crisp and bone-deep: "Well......" Then she couldn't speak, so she couldn't help but moan.

Qiao Youhua knew that her body was very sensitive, and she was already charming, but when she saw that she was so unbearable that she couldn't talk, she withdrew her hand.

"Let's talk about it." Qiao Youhua reached out and took out his pants, and took out a pack of cigarettes from his trouser pocket.

Hu Ling'er glanced at him with silky eyes, and said: "Uncle has already contacted the British, and the British agreed to continue doing business with us, but my uncle didn't tell the British to buy the machines you said for the time being, because he was afraid that he would not be able to negotiate with the British, so my uncle asked me to come back and inform you to go to Tianjin quickly, and it is best to go and talk to the British in person."

And you have to bring your chips, because the British are very realistic, if you don't have enough equivalent chips to make them happy, my uncle said, it is very difficult to buy the equipment of the arsenal, after all, these things are more expensive, and they are not available to ordinary people. ”

Qiao Youhua smiled after hearing this: "There is nothing in this world that money can't buy, the British are all Westerners who love money, as long as we have money, we are the uncle." ”

"But do you have that much money? Weapons and equipment are so expensive, and the technology and arsenal equipment that can produce weapons and equipment must be even more expensive. Hu Ling'er looked up and said with some concern.

"Don't worry, what your husband and I have in my hands is enough to make foreign devils crazy, don't worry about money!" Qiao Youhua said and turned her over and pressed her down again: "Little girl, you dare to question whether you have money or not, see how I punish your ......!" ”
