    "Wushan Town outside Hefei City was captured after attacking for two hours early this morning. The Japanese 51st Regiment stationed in Wushan Town retreated into Hefei City after leaving more than 2,000 corpses. The 135th Division is currently tense  Attack the top of the city of Hefei. But I estimate that after the air force joins the battle at dawn, the top of the city can be taken quickly. The key is inside the city.

    Because Hefei is a big city with hundreds of thousands of people, our troops cannot bombard it with artillery, so the next step is street fighting!  "

    Yang Jie pointed to Hefei and said, Zhou Weiguo nodded, indicating that he understood.

    "Where are our troops in Suqian now? How is their progress?"

    Zhou Weiguo turned his attention to Suqian again, where a main division of the 88th Group Army was fighting, and he didn't know what the situation was now.

    "The situation is relatively good! The 114th Division is a special division of the Japs. Their organization is similar to that of the Japs' standing divisions. The soldiers also use supplementary troops from the standing divisions, and their combat effectiveness is considered relatively strong among the Japanese army.  Now the 133rd Division has surrounded them. But it will probably take a while to eat this Japanese army. It will take a while to eat this Japanese army!"

    Zhou Weiguo did not speak after hearing this, but focused his attention on Hefei again.

    "How many soldiers in our new barracks have been trained for more than one and a half months?"

    Zhou Weiguo seemed to have made some move and turned to look at He Yuchen.

    Now the training work of the new military camp has been handed over to He Yuchen, and Yang Jie is responsible for assisting Zhou Weiguo in completing the second Jianghuai Battle.

    "It is estimated that there are about 12,000 people!"

    He Yuchen said after reading a document.

    "Twelve thousand people? Send me an order to organize these twelve thousand people into four garrison regiments within a week. Each regiment has 3,000 men. Use type B organization to temporarily serve as local garrison troops. Later,  When new divisions are formed, they will be converted into Type A divisions.¡±

    The four types of troops, A, B, C and D, are a type of organization recently developed by Zhou Weiguo, Yang Jie, and He Yuchen for local defense.

    Class A Division is the combat unit of the Eighty-Eighth Group Army. The specific organization of the entire army is as follows:

    The Type A division has four infantry regiments, one divisional artillery regiment, one engineering battalion, two field hospitals, one logistics battalion, one reconnaissance company, one communications company, one divisional guard battalion, and one division headquarters, with a total of 20,887 people.  .

    Division running group: equipped with thirty-six 105-caliber howitzers, twelve 75-mm mountain guns, and twenty-four 75-mm field guns, a total of 1,516 people.  [540 artillery personnel, 732 escort personnel, 244 logistics personnel]

    Infantry regiment: three infantry battalions, a field artillery battalion, a regimental headquarters, a reconnaissance platoon, a logistics company, a guard company, a communications squad, and an engineer company, a total of 4,123 people.

    Infantry battalion: four infantry companies, a 75mm field artillery company, a battalion headquarters, guard platoon, and reconnaissance squad, a total of 1,176 people.

    Field artillery battalion: twelve 75mm field guns, eighteen 81mm mortars, three 120mm mortars, one guard platoon, one ammunition platoon, one battalion commander, two deputy battalion commanders,  Two telegraph operators and three conductors, a total of 212 people.

    75mm field artillery battery: four 75mm field guns, six 81mm mortars, a guard squad of twelve people, forty-six people, one company commander, one deputy company commander, and one telegrapher  members, a commander, a total of fifty people.

    Infantry company: four infantry platoons, one mortar platoon, one machine gun platoon, one company commander, two deputy company commanders, and one telegraph operator, a total of 262 people.

    Mortar platoon: equipped with six mortars and 18 people.

    Machine gun platoon: eight heavy machine guns, eight mg34 general-purpose machine guns, one company commander and two deputy company commanders, a total of fifty-one people.

    This is the simple establishment of Division A, while Division B removes heavy weapons and reduces the establishment.

    The number of heavy machine guns in each company was reduced from eight to three.  The 75mm field artillery batteries were removed, and each general-purpose machine gun battery was reduced from eight to two, while the light machine guns remained unchanged.

    In addition, the number of twelve 75mm field guns in the field artillery company has also been reduced to six, and the number of eighteen 81mm mortars remains unchanged.

    Anyway, by reducing the heavy firepower configuration, the number of a Type B infantry regiment has become about 3,000.

    However, this type B division can still be used as a field force, but it cannot be used as a type A division. In addition, the type B division is also a supplementary division. Generally, if the loss of the previous type A division is too large, it will be drawn from the type B division.  Veterans join the Class A Division to ensure the combat effectiveness of the Class A Division.

    ? ?The C Division has removed the field artillery and heavy machine gun configurations. The light machine guns have also been reduced from one per squad to one for two infantry squads. The general machine guns are still two per company. This remains unchanged.

    This type of unit is a search unit, and its mission is to suppress bandits and search for broken enemy troops.

    "The Ding Division belongs entirely to the local garrison force. Their mission is to serve as a garrison force. It can also be said to be an armed police force.  The number of their divisions ranged from 6,000 to 8,000.  Under normal circumstances, field missions are not performed.

    Zhou Weiguo formed four local garrison regiments and deployed them in and around Chuzhou to prevent the Japanese army from crossing the Yangtze River north again.

    He needs to mobilize the 135th Division from Chuzhou. This is a Category A division of the Eighty-Eighth Group Army and one of the five main divisions. He must not waste his troops here.

    ?¡­

    "Yuchen, send an order to the armored division again, ordering them to immediately cross the Huaihe River north to Donghai County, northeast of Suqian. Currently, the Twelfth Division of the Little Devil is being blocked here by an army from the Fifth Theater. But the Little Devil's Ten  The Second Division is a standing division with relatively sophisticated weapons and equipment and strong combat effectiveness. This army in the fifth theater is short of guns and ammunition, and its weapons and equipment are not very good. I don¡¯t think it can hold them back for long. Let the armored division defeat them. Prevent them  Go south to support Suqian!"

    Zhou Weiguo issued an order again, this time he dispatched the armored division.  The armored division must be transferred north.

    But then Zhou Weiguo ordered the 1st Heavy Artillery Division to go to Tianchang City to the west of Gaoyou Lake to prepare the next battle plan.

    ?¡­

    When Zhou Weiguo was preparing the next battle plan, the battle in Suqian was still fierce.

    "Commander Wei, this is the Japanese equipment we captured. You can take it and use it! We will need your help next. We just received an order from the Army Group Headquarters and must deal with the Japanese 114th Division as soon as possible. Currently, our army is moving from east to west.  Attack the Japanese army from three directions in the south, but I estimate that the Japs are likely to find your 31st Army next. So I hope your 31st Army can join us in attacking the Japanese 114th Division!"

    At this time, Sun Xinpu and Wei Yunsong were standing together. Trucks were driving over in the distance, all of which were loaded with the Japs' Type 38 rifles, Type 92 heavy machine guns, and crooked light machine guns. As for ammunition,  , that must be there.

    "Okay! No problem! As long as we can eat this division of the little devil, we can do anything!"

    Wei Yunsong had no objection. Seeing more than ten trucks of weapons and equipment, he could already imagine how many weapons and equipment there were.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
