Chapter 122: Distributing equipment (new book, please watch)
The sudden order to receive equipment baffled the new regiment leaders, and even surprised Wang Zhanhai, Ma Desheng and others.
Wang Zhanhai and others all know how many families there are in the Independent Brigade. When they arrived, there were four thousand people and more than two thousand guns, all of which were seized from the Jaxing City Japs. And today, they were taken from the munitions warehouse of the Nanjing Garrison Headquarters. They obtained thousands of long guns and dozens of light and heavy machine guns, but not even a single bullet.
Now Li Guoyao notifies three regiments to receive equipment at once. Everyone thinks this is a fantasy. After all, the three regiments have nearly 8,000 people. Where can they get so many weapons and equipment?
But since it was Li Guoyao himself who gave the order, everyone did not neglect it and gathered as quickly as possible.
When the three commanders of the 567th Guard Regiment and their more than 8,000 troops gathered in the large playground in the backyard of the police station, Li Guoyao had already been waiting for them on the playground. In addition, deputy brigade commander Wang Zhanhai and the chief of staff Ma Desheng and Lu Zhanwu and others from the security camp hurried over from the police station.
After all the personnel arrived, Li Guoyao said immediately: "Each regiment will report its own establishment and actual soldiers first, starting with the fifth regiment!"
Ni Zhiliang, who had just been appointed commander of the Fifth Guard Regiment in the afternoon, immediately stood out from the crowd and said loudly: "Reporting to the brigade, the Fifth Guard Regiment has four field battalions of 550 people, as well as a reconnaissance company, a guard company, and an engineer company. , one artillery company each, with an approved number of 2,558 soldiers and an actual number of 2,732!"
As soon as Ni Zhiliang finished speaking, Huang Shang, commander of the Sixth Guard Regiment, said: "Reporting to the brigade, our department's establishment is the same as that of the Fifth Guard Regiment. The approved number of soldiers is also 2,558, and the actual number is 2,908!"
"Reporting to the brigade, our department has approved 2,558 soldiers and the actual number is 2,822!" Xue Dengyuhui, commander of the Seventh Guard Regiment, reported.
Since there were too many broken troops gathered together, and these broken troops liked to stick together, the actual number of soldiers in each regiment was larger than the approved number during reorganization.
Li Guoyao was already used to this. After all, he was gathering broken troops instead of recruiting new ones. The situation was naturally different.
Li Guoyao nodded and said: "Each regiment will send out a battalion and go to the warehouse behind to get equipment. Each regiment has 2,000 rifles, 10 light machine guns, 6 heavy machine guns, and 300,000 rounds of ammunition. Don't get too much!"
Hearing Li Guoyao's order, everyone was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed.
Then, under the orders of the commanders of each regiment, three battalions of infantry rushed to the police warehouse not far away to transport equipment, while the rest were originally scheduled to wait.
Taking this opportunity, Wang Zhanhai stepped forward and asked Li Guoyao in a low voice: "Bridge, are you really equipped?"
Li Guoyao nodded and said, "That's still fake. Do you think I, Li Guoyao, am someone who torments everyone for nothing?"
"Three regiments have more than 6,000 guns, and there are also light and heavy machine guns. Where did you get so much equipment?" Wang Zhanhai asked in surprise.
Li Guoyao smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about it. In short, we have the equipment, but we must make good use of it, and we must remember the purpose of our entry into the city!"
"As long as we have the equipment, I have been worried that we would not be able to fight against the Japs with just the few thousand guns we have. But with so many weapons and equipment, we'd better arm 20,000 people. Still capable of fighting!"
Li Guoyao nodded and said, "Don't worry about the weapons and equipment. After the weapons and equipment are distributed, you will notify the chief and deputy commanders of each regiment to have a meeting in the conference room, and we will redistribute the combat tasks."
"yes!"
The distribution of weapons and equipment went smoothly, but it was also surprising. Six thousand Chinese official rifles, thirty Czech-style light machine guns, and 18 Type 92 heavy machine guns were all new guns. They had not even removed the oil paper. It was really I don¡¯t know where Li Guoyao got so many weapons and equipment.
What¡¯s more important is that after excluding the distributed equipment, there is still a lot of inventory in the warehouse, especially ammunition, which is enough to fill a huge warehouse, at least dozens of tons.
With so many weapons and equipment, the morale of these newly gathered broken troops immediately improved a lot, and they no longer had the same lack of fighting spirit as before.
In fact, it is not difficult to imagine that these defeated troops were all withdrawn from the front line in Shanghai. To be able to escape from such a tragic battle requires considerable strength and great luck. Most people do not have this ability.
The main reason why it turned out that none of the troops were worth breaking up was that the National Government did not gather them in time and reorganize and train them., and these soldiers have no weapons in their hands, which is a huge blow to a soldier.
In fact, as long as a soldier has a gun in his hand and a commander who dares to give orders, he has to show his cowardice!
In the previous life of the Battle of Nanjing, tens of thousands of Chinese troops laid down their weapons and became prisoners. It was not that these soldiers were unwilling to resist, but that the officials abandoned the soldiers and ran away first. For example, Gui Yongqing, who was the captain of the Nanjing Teaching Corps at the time, this guy It was during the Battle of Nanjing that he abandoned his troops and fled. But the strange thing is that instead of being punished afterwards, he was promoted step by step.
It is worth mentioning that this guy repeated his old tricks in the Battle of Lanfeng in 1938. He escaped before the battle, causing the Japanese army to occupy Dengfeng, and turned a beautiful battle that could have annihilated Dofeiyuan into a great rout!
In order to prevent the Japanese army from moving south and quickly occupying Wuhan, the Chinese army had to dig up the Huayuankou embankment, causing another human tragedy since Nanjing!
There was also Sun Yuanliang, then commander of the 88th Division. During the Nanjing Defense War, this guy was responsible for guarding the front line of Yuhuatai. He first led his troops to escape, but was "invited" back to the position by Song Xilian's supervising team with machine guns. What was even more bastard was that after receiving the call from Tang Shengzhi After the retreat order was given, he did not inform his subordinates, but abandoned his troops and fled alone in makeup.
What¡¯s even more shameful is that this guy used gold bars to bribe the madam and escaped by hiding in a brothel. In the city of Nanjing, this bastard watched his soldiers surrender to the Japanese army, and then he and hundreds of thousands of people in the city were massacred by the Japanese invaders. Not only was he not punished afterwards, he was promoted step by step, and finally became the commander of the 16th Corps of the National Government. .
It is worth mentioning that during the Battle of Huaihai, Sun Yuanliang's troops were surrounded by Huaye in Chenguanzhuang. This guy once again showed his true colors as a "flying general" and escaped in disguise. When Du Yuming, Qiu Qingquan and others were either dead or captured, the thief had fled back to Nanjing to reorganize the 16th Corps. His classmates in Huangpu all looked down upon him and said: Although you are not sure about success, you are determined to escape!
Nanjing fell and hundreds of thousands of people and soldiers were massacred. These bastards definitely bear the unshirkable responsibility! ! !
Because of this, after receiving weapons, equipment and sufficient ammunition, the morale of the soldiers was quickly restored, which also gave Li Guoyao some confidence in the next battle.
At three o'clock in the morning, the large conference room of the Nanjing Police Station was full. More than a dozen heads and deputy heads of ten regiments of the independent brigade, including the new and the old, gathered together to hold the first plenary meeting.
Li Guoyao, Wang Zhanhai and Ma Desheng were the last to arrive at the conference room. As soon as they entered the door, everyone in the conference room stood up and said loudly: "Hello, sir!"
Li Guoyao was not pretentious, he immediately sat down on the main seat, and then said in a deep voice: "Sit down!"
After everyone was seated, Li Guoyao said immediately: "Everyone, those present today are the chief officers of the various regiments and battalions directly under our independent brigade. There are familiar faces and some new ones. Let's let the new ones go first. Brother, please introduce yourself!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a middle-aged man sitting under the head of the first regiment commander Zhang Tengjiao stood up and said: "Hello, sir, everyone, my name is Wen Debiao, known as Wen Erhu, a former deputy battalion commander of the 20th Army. The troops were dispersed. We retreated to Nanjing and have just been appointed as the deputy commander of the first regiment to meet the chief of staff!"
?The next person who stood up was a middle-aged man in his forties, still wearing a police uniform. After standing up, he said: "Hello, sir, I am a humble Wang Yuanshun, the former captain of the Nanjing Police Rangers, and now the deputy commander of the First Guard Regiment!"
"Hello, sir, I am Chen Zhiyang, a humble official. He is the former captain of the Second Mobile Team of the Nanjing Police Station and is currently the deputy commander and chief of staff of the Second Guard Regiment!"
"Hello, sir, I have a humble job, Li Dingguo, the former chief of the Police Armament Section of the Nanjing Police Station, and now the deputy chief of the Third Guard Regiment!"
"Hello, sir, I have a humble job, Long Dayun, the former colonel commander of the 66th Army of the Yunnan Army, and the current deputy commander of the Second Regiment of the Independent Brigade!"
"Hello, sir, Zhang Shaolin, who holds a humble position, was the former chief of staff of the 59th Army Major, and is currently the deputy commander of the Fourth Guard Regiment!"
