339. Forming Red Arms
Bai Shujie was in such a hurry to count the weapons and equipment, not for other reasons, but to fulfill his promise with Zhao Meiyan immediately. According to Wang Xinlan's secret reminder, Zhao Meiyan and they should have been prepared. One of the main purposes of coming over this time should be to find Bai Shujie to "rip off the bamboo"!
Don't look at Bai Shujie's hacking of the little devil's bamboo pole is very neat, he has also been knocked by others at times, and more than once, and there is no place to reason.
Now the central Soviet region in the south is being encircled and suppressed by Jiang's million-strong army, and Mao Weiren has been pushed aside again, and the fifth anti-encirclement and suppression is doomed to fail. Liu Zhidan would soon be arrested, and if it wasn't for Zhou Weiren's arrival one step ahead of schedule, his life would not have been saved.
Chiang Mou, under the guiding principle of "settling the outside world must first settle the interior", would rather China "die to imperialism" than solve the Red Army. Now that the Red Army in northern Shaanxi is facing a flank attack from both sides by the Northeast Army and the Jinsui Army, and its situation is becoming increasingly difficult, history will naturally move forward according to its original trajectory.
Therefore, it is already an inevitable result that the underground party organizes its own armed forces in the north. The only difference from history is that the Tianjin Special Branch found Bai Shujie's "big bamboo pole", if it doesn't knock loudly, it is not an underground party!
The reason why Bai Shujie is interested in these imitations is that the armed forces formed by the underground party have not undergone any formal training. No matter how sophisticated the weapons and equipment are, they will not be able to exert their due power for the time being, so it is better to use these big road goods to deal with them for a period of time. When the team has been honed and formed, it's not too late to change clothes.
This time, the reason for the initiative to release water was that two months ago, the Central Soviet Region issued a relevant document by "Zhou Weiren", saying that "the party should pay attention to correcting leftist thinking." Therefore, Bai Shujie believed that he should properly state his position and not cause a big misunderstanding or even misunderstanding at that time, which would be very detrimental to the future development of the Rehe Front.
As for himself, a short-lived figure in history, what will be the final outcome, Bai Shujie has no energy to think about it now. But those iron-blooded brothers around him must have their own way out in the future. Jiang someone? and the old witch of Cixi, who are just lost dogs, are not considered by Bai Shujie at all.
Now with the batch of weapons and equipment in front of us, plus the rifles that Cao Renhou's battalion has replaced, as long as the machine guns and mortars are strengthened, it is enough to equip a "Liao 13-style" integrated regiment. What is lacking now is a reserve of bullets, which can only support one battle, not one campaign.
Bai Shujie knew very well in his heart that the early underground party was all doers, and what he paid attention to was "the fact is, say the same!" "Since he has made an agreement with Zhao Meiyan, Bai Shujie can't break his word and get fat.
Creditworthiness, no matter what the circumstances, is the most basic principle of doing things. Bai Shujie doesn't promise anything easily, once he says it, it is "a word and a word"!
Fortunately, Cao Renhou didn't say anything big, he went out early the next morning and returned in the afternoon: "Detachment leader, 7.92mm rifle ammunition, I have already implemented 250,000 rounds, and I will pay the money with one hand and deliver it with the other tonight." There are also 3 Maxim heavy machine guns and 4 mortars, and 300,000 rounds of 11.43mm machine gun ammunition. These things are all because they are too heavy, and they are thrown on the side of the road when they enter the customs, and whoever picks them up belongs to them. β
Bai Shujie heard that the reserve bullets had been dropped, and he couldn't let go of this opportunity: "Lamei, you discuss with Battalion Commander Cao and take out the money to buy this batch of weapons." β
Cao Renhou said again: "Also, detachment leader, do you want the wooden-handled grenade produced by Fengtian?" I think that although the 36 pieces of explosive shrapnel can't catch up with the little devil's grenade, and it's a little worse than Taiyuan's, the killing radius is larger than that of the little devil, and the power is okay. β
Bai Shujie did not hesitate: "Yes!" As many as you want! β
Just kidding, the "grenade tactics" of the Red Army were the best in the world. The magic weapon of the poorly equipped Red Army soldiers to defeat the enemy is close combat, and the grenade is the most deterrent weapon.
That night, Zhao Meiyan and Li Siliang rushed to Raoyang County with more than 100 people and carried out work overnight. This time it was much simpler than in Xiongxian County, because Xu Erhei made a mess here, and there was no formal administrative organization at all.
It is difficult to transform an old system, but it is much simpler and more efficient to build an entirely new institution. At the same time, Zhao Meiyan and Li Siliang didn't need to be tempted this time, so they brought all the cadres at all levels over! A bright red anti-Japanese ** regime without any moisture was formed by mistake, and their backing was the Rehe Front.
Bai Shujie had already planned the "Bad Belly Case" in his heart, so he naturally slept comfortably. By the time he opened his eyes, it was already noon the next day.
When they came to the main hall outside, Zhao Meiyan and Li Siliang both had bloodshot eyes, but they looked very excited.
Is this "people are in good spirits on happy occasions and do not off for three days and three nights"?
Bai Shujie took the basin brought by Xiao Lamei and washed his face briefly, and then asked, "Is there anything wrong with the two of you coming over so early?" β
"Is this still early? The sun is going to turn west! Zhao Yanmei said with a smile: "We are so busy that our feet are facing the sky, you are good, you are alone, you are snoring and snoring!" β
"Stop, stop, where is this like the tone of a beautiful woman's speech, huh?" Bai Shujie said matter-of-factly: "Vulgar, do you understand?" We are all civilized people, we can't talk like this, not to mention that you are still a revolutionary cadre, you must set an example! β
"Okay, don't talk nonsense with you, I'm here to fulfill your promise today!" Zhao Meiyan said with a smile: "I have officially resigned from the position of county magistrate, and today I asked to find you to join the army!" β
Bai Shujie deliberately asked, "Isn't it?" Are you going to be an instructor, or are you going to be an instructor? β
"It's like this, it's too rushed." Zhao Meiyan blushed and said, "Be an instructor, this establishment is too small." However, as a political commissar, there is still a lack of numbers. That's it, you see! β
Xiao Lamei brought noodles, and Bai Shujie took it and took a bite: "Okay, tell me, how many people are there?" β
Zhao Meiyan immediately assured: "At present, there are only more than 1,300 people, but don't worry, it won't take a month, there should be so many more people coming." β
"Okay, let's talk about what specific requirements you have." Bai Shujie finished eating the noodles in three times and divided five by two, and wiped his mouth: "As long as it's not too much of a request, I will meet you all!" β
"We don't know much about the military, and Secretary Li Siliang is also a worker, and he has never specialized in military work. Although I had been studying the content of armed struggle for two days before I came, I realized that I was really naΓ―ve when I saw your troops. β
Zhao Meiyan stared at Bai Shujie's eyes and said: "To be honest, the 1,300 people I brought, many people say that it is the establishment of a regiment, but I didn't expect that there are only half of them, and even two battalions can't be together." β
"Miss Zhao, please forgive me for calling you that." Bai Shujie said a little helplessly: "Let you be a big girl to preside over the military work, I don't know what General Yang Jingyu's considerations are." In fact, General Yang underestimated me too much, he only needed a telegram or a small note, and I would do it. β
"When I first started to pull up the team, it was not a telegram that took away the equipment of one of my reinforced battalions, so much so that I gave him an integrated company as a guard company. I know you're on a secret mission this time, so I don't ask. There is no uniform regulation on the size of the troops. β
"The establishment of our Rehe Front Army is formed for little devils. If you don't fight the little devils, there is no practical reference meaning. Therefore, the 1,300 people you bring with you can also form a small group. It has three battalions, each with 374 people, a total of 1,130 people. There are 170 people left, and it is possible to form a guard company. β
"The specific establishment situation is: all adopt the three-three system, that is, your Chairman Mao's method. A squad of 12 people, armed with one to two light machine guns; A platoon has three squads, a company has three platoons, and a cooking squad of 12 people has been added, and the battalion headquarters has three combat companies under its jurisdiction, and it is enough to have a reconnaissance platoon directly under it. In this way, you can still serve as the political commissar of the regiment. β
"Hee-hee, hearing you say that, I have some confidence again!" Zhao Meiyan smiled and said, "General Yang said that there are many female generals around you, and each one is more powerful than the other. We pay attention to equality between men and women, so I was chosen to preside over military work. As for whether General Yang has other considerations, people don't know! β
These words are a little lacking in confidence, and even Bai Shujie, an idiot, can hear that Zuihou's words are purely a snake to add to the story. But what General Yang Jingyu meant, Bai Shujie still didn't fully understand.
"I, Bai Shujie, speak my word, although your number is not large, I will still equip you according to my establishment." Bai Shujie secretly calculated in his heart, and then said: "I will equip you with light and heavy machine guns, and equip mortars for you." Cannonballs and bullets, I'll reserve them for you according to the base of a campaign, is it enough? β
Zhao Meiyan blinked her eyes and said: "What is the base of a campaign, you can't fool others!" β
"Well, I'll give you an analogy. For example, in your Central Soviet District, as far as I know, each fighter of the main army set out for battle, and there were only a maximum of 10 rounds. Well, for the Central Soviet District, one combat base is 10 rounds. A campaign is made up of several battles, so the base of the campaign belongs to the reserve in peacetime. β
"Of course, I, Bai Shujie, didn't pick the door so hard. I'll give you a combat base of 100 rounds per rifle and a campaign base of 500 rounds. The combat base of a mortar is 24 rounds, and the combat base of a campaign is 120 rounds. Machine guns are hard to determine, I'll give you 20,000 rounds for each heavy machine gun, and 10,000 rounds for each light machine gun. β
Zhao Meiyan counted with her fingers, and suddenly asked Li Siliang very nervously: "Secretary Li, according to this, have I Zhao Meiyan become a rich man, will they beat my local tyrant?" β
After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
