"Sir, here!" Erya roared as she walked into the door.

All the officers who were still smiling and greeting each other instantly calmed down. Those who were drinking tea put down their tea cups, those who were eating snacks hurriedly swallowed them, those who were smoking quickly threw away the cigarettes, stood up together, and saluted at the Tang Dao who was dressed in military uniform at the end of the venue, "Royal seat!"

Tang Dao stepped into the venue, glanced at the officers who stood neatly and more than 20 lieutenant-level officers, smiled on his face, waved his hands to signal that everyone should not be so formal: "Okay, don't be so serious. Because of the urgency of marching in New Year's Day and New Year, he did not call everyone to gather together to chat. Today, it was just the time to take advantage of the expansion of our camp. Two things changed. Everyone gathered to chat and discuss the future organization of our group. Let's sit down! Don't be so serious!"

"Let's listen to the group seat. Oh, Lao Hei, you kid quickly move your feet away. I haven't taken a few sips of that cigarette yet!" Li Jiujin bent down and picked up most of the cigarette that had been stomped under the table. He felt so distressed that he stroked it with his hands and stroked it.

"Look at your outstanding performance!" Tang Dao pointed Li Jiujin with a laugh and cry, and turned his head to look at Xing Erya. "Go, give each of the big company commanders a pack of cigarettes, just like I'll give them New Year's gifts."

"Sir, that's what reporter Dan Tai asked for your connection." Erya muttered reluctantly.

The cigarette was marching to Jiashan County in the independent battalion. In order to supplement military use, Dan Tai Mingyue found a friend of his old father and asked him to buy food. For the sake of Dan Tai Mingyue, he sent more than twenty packs of old sword cigarettes. As a result, Tang Dao was so good that he had not even smoked a few of them, he sent them all out. Erya, who is a communications soldier and a service soldier, must be unhappy!

"Don't be stingy, it's just a few packs of cigarettes! When we go to a good place in the future, we planted tobacco leaves all over the mountains. Not to mention that thousands of brothers in our Four Corps can smoke, they can support the brothers' troops, and even take out food." Tang Dao, who walked to the top of the long conference table, sat down with a smile and criticized the stingy Bala's orderly service.

"Haha, I said, Brother Erya, you should be stingy with those guys, don't be stingy with you Brother Li. After a year or two, my aunt will grow up. I will introduce you to you as a mediator. We will just carry it." Li Jiujin smiled so hard that he opened his mouth, revealing his yellow teeth.

As Tang Dao's orderly soldier, Erya was only a soldier with a military rank, and no longer had a look of his eyes, he would not offend him. However, because he was young and only 17 or 18 years old, the "uncles" led by Li Jiujin usually joked about his marriage.

With the old ruffian Li Jiujin taking the lead, several other company commanders who were familiar with Erya also started to make fun of him.

"Old Li! I heard you say that my aunt is a sister-in-law every day, but I didn't see you showing us the photos of my sister-in-law. What's wrong? Is it because I want to be in line with your Lao Li's appearance? So... Then don't cheat us Erya brothers." Fat Dahai smiled.

"I'm a fat guy, you believe it or not. I know what a handsome man is. My family and I were born for this word, let alone my sister-in-law. She looks like a flower at a young age." Li Jiujin's mouth has always been one by one.

When he heard that he and his tricks were born for a handsome man, let alone laughing in the venue, even Leng Feng, who had always been serious, couldn't help but smile.

This is so shameless that he is so shameless that he opens the door for shamelessness--it's shameless to get home.

Others don’t know, but they didn’t know that the old brothers in the 88th Division didn’t know that Li Jiujin was working outside for many years to earn military pay. His wife raised her children at home and had to plant several acres of land. She was absolutely stunning. I heard that once a thief went to the farm to grab grain, Li Jiujin’s wife stood at the door with a big kitchen knife in her hand, and forced the thief to retreat.

When everyone heard Li Jiujin chanting the family letter proudly, there was already a lively Sun Erniang in front of everyone. Biao was so boutique, but it had something to do with appearance?

The atmosphere in the venue became warm in an instant.

When Erya returned and sent a pack of cigarettes to each officer, the most talked about Comrade Li only had half a pack of cigarettes at most. When Li Jiujin, who was about to be a relative with Erya, was confused, the atmosphere reached its peak.

The officers have not been so happy for a long time, even if they killed so many Japanese troops in the battle to save money.

After all, they were still on the battlefield that time, Leng Feng and hundreds of people were surrounded by the Japanese army. The battle would not be over if they were not rescued.

But now it is different. They have been away from the battlefield and have received good news that they have expanded from the battalion into a regiment. With Tang Dao's deliberate indulgence, the military meeting that should have been serious turned into a tea party, because the emotions that had been suppressed for a long time in the Battle of Jinling were finally released.

I'm afraid Li Jiujin didn't understand that Mao Erya would treat him like this, but he wanted to send all his sister-in-law out. No one here except him knew that his sister-in-law and her sister were printed in the same mold. Her appearance was a bit bad, but she was a good master in the family! He was a personal experience and knew the most.

Maybe Erya is still young! He is too shy to tell him about his wife? Li Jiujin looked at Erya who was so sarcastic to him, and could only give him a reasonable explanation.

Seeing the officers lit cigarettes, Tang Dao gently tapped the table in front of him: "It's time to celebrate. When our group goes to Xuzhou to receive the weapons, it may be just in time for the New Year. At that time, we will have a New Year party in the whole group. Chief of Staff Zhuang will invite a few opera teams and celebrate the whole group. Now, we will do the main business first and call you to come, so that you can express your ideas and opinions."

Then, Erya and Xia Dayu distributed the four-line group that had been written by Dan Tai Mingyue and distributed.

The expressions on the faces of the officers who received the listing were first serious, but then excited. They did not expect that the new leader of the rank of the regiment would be so big.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Not only the Golden-Swallowing Beast Cavalry are equipped with one company, but even the artillery is established with two companies, with 4 mountain cannons plus 4 heavy mortars, plus combat defense cannons and machine cannons. With these heavy firepower, they may dare to touch a Japanese infantry brigade head-on.

"What else can I have to say? It's up to you, your opinion!" Li Jiujin spoke carelessly. "But, can I give you some small opinions?"

"If you have something, just say it, let it go if you have nothing to do. When you are talking about the train, you are Li Jiujin every day. When you talk about serious business, why are your baby just like the little wife who has just passed the door, and you are even very well equipped!" Lei Xiong glared.

"Hehe, Chief Lei, don't worry! I'm afraid that what I said is wrong and will be laughed at by my brothers!" Li Jiujin smiled. "How to change this organization? I'm just a small company commander and can't say much advice, but Lao Li thinks it can still be improved for the infantry company equipment written by the commander."

"Come and listen?" Tang Dao nodded.

Tang Dao was actually very satisfied with Li Jiujin. Although this guy was a little bit a little bit oily, he was smart enough and could not get hard at critical moments. He was chased by the Japanese army in the last night attack. He gritted his teeth and planned to be a "gecko's tail broken" tail, which already reflected that rare quality.

To be honest, when the independent battalion was established, Li Jiujin was chosen to be the company commander. Tang Dao valued the most important thing about his loyalty. Unexpectedly, this veteran Youzi did much better in this position as a company commander than Tang Dao expected.

Although Li Jiujin was so abnormal that he was cautious and cautious at this time, Tang Dao looked forward to his suggestions.

"Dear brothers, you are all people who have fought a lot of war with the Japanese. I would like to ask, when one of our infantry companies faces against a Japanese infantry squadron, what do you think the biggest threat to the Japanese army to our regiment's officers and soldiers?" Li Jiujin turned his attention to the company commanders of the same level opposite him and around him.

"That's more, most of the Japanese soldiers are veterans, and their shooting skills are not good. Many of my brothers raised their bodies a little while shooting, and they were bitten by Japanese Japanese bullets. They either got shot in the head or the chest. The brothers couldn't even hold on to the stretcher to lift them down." Zhao Daqiang replied in a muffled voice.

His 4th Company actually suffered no major losses in the battles between Mouse Mountain and Gold Pit. He only suffered more than a dozen losses, but there were not many wounded soldiers. He was basically victims. The cause of his death was basically gunshot wounds, so the feeling was also particularly deep.

"Yes! Lao Cai, I have also fought for several years, but I have never seen an army with such accurate marksmanship. At least twenty people in my 9th Company were shot with guns by the Japanese hiding on the hillside. And that was still us in the trenches. They leaned against us with some stones and wooden piles. If they were placed on the plains and fought, our company's losses would inevitably be greater." Cai Yongguan, who was held up and forced to sit up, was also in fear.

The brave infantry company commanders who once slashed several Japanese soldiers with a big knife in their hand were so afraid of the Japanese gunshots. It is conceivable how much shadow the Japanese veterans with excellent skills and tactics left on the Chinese army in the early days of this great Patriotic War.

A trace of gloom flashed across Tang Dao's face. Of course, he knew that no matter what advanced weapons and equipment were, the Japanese army at this time was far superior to the Chinese army in terms of infantry training.

Not to mention that the Chinese army was psychologically shady by the excellent shooting level of the Japanese army, even the American soldiers armed to the teeth.

In the summary of the US Army's War on the Pacific Islands, it was also mentioned that the crazy infantry of the Japanese army tied themselves to trees, specifically precisely shooting and killing officers and technicians, and shooting without any bullets.

When the American soldiers encountered the Japanese "fire cold guns", the officers and soldiers would become nervous, and then called for artillery support to bomb the area and finally gradually advance.

The reason why the average Japanese gunman's shooting skills far exceeds that of the Chinese army is entirely due to the rigorous training of its recruits.

Before the war broke out, the Japanese Education Commission issued a regulation that each recruit who had just joined the army should consume no less than 150 rifle ammunition per month, and no less than 300 machine guns. During the entire shooting training process, the total ammunition consumed by each recruit should not be less than 2,000 rounds.

The amount of 2,000 rounds of training ammunition is undoubtedly an astronomical figure for the current Chinese army. Not to mention the Sichuan Army, Guizhou Army and other miscellaneous armed forces, even the most elite German-armed division, the actual training rifle ammunition for soldiers will not exceed 20 rounds per month.

In addition to the numbness of training ammunition, during live ammunition training on the shooting range, Japanese instructors will not rely entirely on the number of target rings to determine the quality of shooting results.

They believe that the results achieved in actual combat are very different from those achieved on the shooting range.

A Japanese soldier recalled that when he operated the "March 8" rifle and fired five live ammunitions, although he achieved 9 rings hits, he was still criticized by his superiors.

The superior told him that although these 5 rounds of ammunition were all 9 rings, the bullet marks were too scattered and not concentrated, and it was okay to miss the bull's eye. But as long as they could hit a corner of the target, it would be successful. The 0 rings that were shot together were better than the 45 rings that were scattered with bullet marks.

As for those recruits who have off-target and poor performance, the punishment is also very severe. The instructor will insult them loudly in front of their comrades, and at the same time order them to keep bowing and apologizing, and finally let these recruits slap each other in the face to remember the lesson.

It was a lucky result to fail. The reason why Japanese infantry can show the superb skills and tactics that make these elites scared on the battlefield is inseparable from their large amount of consumption and rigorous training.

"Is it? We have suffered enough of the Japanese infantry shooting skills. If we want to kill them, we have to be more accurate and ruthless than them." Li Jiujin put away his usual hippie smile and looked serious.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! "So, I suggest that while our four-way regiment is far away from the war zone, our regiment headquarters should set up a teaching team and select some veterans, mainly responsible for various training of new recruits, and teach them how to save their lives on the battlefield. I, a company commander, don't want to watch those new recruits assigned to my infantry company be shot to death by the Japanese devils because they were not careful.

‘The big scar in his head fell off, and he would be a hero in 18 years!’ He said it very proudly, but that man was not raised by his mother and father. He made his parents cry heartbrokenly on the grave, but Lao Li couldn’t stand it.

Since the establishment of our Independent Battalion, Lao Li's second battles have fought three times and killed twenty-six brothers, most of whom are brothers transferred from the former Songjiang Security Group. What does this mean? It means that their training in the recruits period is fooled. If they don't practice them well, I will not dare to go to the territory of Jiangnan in the future.

When I went, why did I tell my parents! Your son died in battle under my hands? Do you want to go to the village to tell me that the family? Old Li, I'm afraid he won't have that face!"

Speaking of this, tears flashed in Li Jiujin's eyes.

The lobby of the small restaurant is quiet.

I guess no one expected that the most cynical infantry company commander would still have such delicate thoughts.

But obviously, he was talking about the truth.

This time, the Independent Battalion fought with the Guoqi Detachment in the southern Anhui mountainous area, and the entire army suffered more than 400 people, most of which were soldiers of the Sichuan Army's Avenge Corps and the former Songjiang Security Corps.

That must be inseparable from their weak training.

On the other hand, the casualties rate of the veterans who transferred from the Fourth Battalion, the 67th Army and the 43rd Army was far lower than that of them.

It’s not that they had a good training experience in the past, but the continuous battlefield has become the most stringent training ground. Soldiers who cannot make rapid progress will be eliminated. Those who can survive will be the best group of people.

But that cost was also amazing. For example, the 524th Regiment, the predecessor of the Fourth Front Camp, had two rounds of soldiers. Very few of them could survive from before the war to after the battle.

"Okay! Li Jiujin gave a good opinion this time! It's very good." Tang Dao smiled and slapped the first.

Applause in the venue was thunderous!

"Hehe, I have a simple opinion, I will show my ugly appearance, so don't laugh at my elder brothers." Li Jiujin sat down proudly as he said.

"What does Lao Li mean?" Cai Yongguan whispered Wei Donglai beside him with an uneducated look.

"That's to say he's a bit ugly, but he's very awesome!" Wei Donglai scratched his scalp and tried hard to give an answer.

"Old Li can get along! He is a honest person." Cai Yongguan gave Li Jiujin a thumbs up.

Li Jiujin...

If I had known that this group of silly critics was so uneducated, he would have lost a book bag with them! Fortunately, he had learned culture from the reporters from Dantai University for several days.

Another laughter.

With Li Jiujin making a proof, the other infantry company commanders also offered suggestions.

Some believe that the reason why the Japanese army can suppress their own troops at the infantry company level is not because of how accurate the infantry shooting is, nor is it because of the light machine gun, but in the grenade launcher.

In the Tang Dao organization, each 15-man infantry squad is also equipped with Japanese grenade launchers, but most of the Japanese grenade launchers are veterans, and Chinese grenade launchers are far less than their practical experience. At the same level of shooting, Japanese grenade launchers often have the upper hand.

Therefore, if you want to gain a suppressive firepower advantage in infantry company-level battles, you still have to equip mortars.

As for the heavy body of the mortar, if the shells are added, at least one 15-man-level artillery squad needs to be transported, it is not the scope of consideration for the infantry company commander.

Tang Dao quickly wrote down this very useful suggestion for a seemingly contradictory concept.

The 20 Type 82MM caliber mortar shell weighs several kilograms and has an effective range of up to 2,000 meters. It is naturally a Japanese grenade launcher with a range of only 500 meters. However, its cannon body and base are 60 kilograms. The transportation of shells weighing a few kilograms requires too much manpower and material resources, and it is definitely not suitable for infantry companies, especially when traveling through the mountains. This is a strategy he formulated in combination with the four regiments about to arrive at the mountain.

But the company commander's suggestion was to remind Tang Dao that the infantry company cannot use 82MM caliber mortars, which does not mean that they cannot carry smaller caliber.

If Tang Dao's memory is not wrong, in order to fight against the large-scale grenade launchers of the Japanese army, next year, the senior management will propose a plan to imitate the 60-caliber mortar, which is that the imitation speed is too slow, and the first sample cannon will not be available until two years later, and it will not be launched in large numbers after three years.

That is the famous Type 31 60 mortar, with a total length of 677mm, a total length of 601mm, a total gun mass of 19kg, a gun body mass of 5kg, a gun frame mass of 9kg, a seat plate mass of 5kg, a maximum range of 1444m, a maximum initial velocity of 148m/s, a maximum firing rate of 18~30 rounds/min, a directional firing boundary of 11°, and a high and low firing boundary of 45°~70°.

With this small caliber artillery, a 20-man artillery squad can be equipped with three artillery soldiers to carry more than 80 rounds of shells. If it is equipped with a pack horse, it will be no problem to provide the infantry company at the forefront of the front line with a firepower support throughout the day.

The research and development and manufacturing of 60-caliber mortars have been included in the agenda of the arsenal that will surely be established in the future.
