So Bai Yihua came up with a second question: "We received intelligence that a squadron of the Japanese is sweeping towards our base. They are only two miles away from us now. You two Battalion Commanders only have five minutes to assign the mission. Now, tell me your battle arrangements. Whoever has thought about it, say it first."
"I'll go first," Wang Zhenjun said. I'll arrange a company of soldiers to act as cover. The rest of the soldiers will immediately move.”
Cai Shan took over Wang Zhenjun's words and said,"Because the devils are only two miles away from us. It's too late to retreat." We suck and destroy them. I have a battalion of soldiers in my hands, which is equivalent to a brigade of the Japanese. The ratio of strength is three to one, so it should be no problem for me to take him down. Even if he couldn't eat them all, he could still beat them back. My battle plan is to enter the main position and stop the devils to buy time for Second Company and Third Company to occupy the favorable terrain. Second Company quickly occupied Crooked Neck Mountain to the west of the village. Third Company quickly occupied the Woutou Mountain to the east of the village. This way, the devil will be under my three-sided attack. There is only one way to go if he is not destroyed, and that is to get lost and return to his hometown. I'm confident about this."
Bai Yihua saw that the two of them had finished speaking and analyzed,"I will give Commander Wang a score first. He can only get five points. Because he was only thinking about this battle from the perspective of a company commander. You used a company of troops to stop the Japanese, but the rest of the troops retreated. Isn't this a waste of troops? Don't forget that we're fighting on our doorstep. If our troops can withdraw quickly, what about the civilians in the base? Could they retreat in time? Also, you only used one company to stop the Japanese. You underestimated their combat ability. First of all, our combat ability is not as good as the Japanese, and our weapons and equipment are not as good as the Japanese. How long can your company hold off the Japanese? This is equivalent to letting the devils into our base. The ones who suffer are the people of our base. I fully agree with the Chief of Staff's battle plan. Are there any objections?”
Wang Zhenjun listened to Bai Yihua's analysis and said,""Guild Leader, I'm convinced. I am indeed not qualified to be a battalion commander. Even I feel like I'm not qualified to be a company commander. However, I will study hard. Battalion Commander and Regiment Commander are not my biggest goals.”
At this moment, Sixth Brother spoke up." Regiment Commander, what you said just now was all theory. Can you be more practical?"”
Bai Yihua pondered for a moment." Commander Xiao gave us a month to rest and reorganize. During this month, our regiment will not have any combat missions. I'm afraid the real one is here." Coincidentally, just as Bai Yihua's proud voice faded, the phone rang. Bai Yihua picked up the receiver and recognized that it was Commander Xiao."Little White Dragon, there's a small group of Japanese coming towards our base. I think they lost their way and didn't come for us on purpose. So I order you to destroy these dozen or so devils. The specific plan is up to you."
Bai Yihua stood at attention." Yes, we must destroy these devils."”He put down the phone and said to Sixth Brother," This is really a practical test. Someone will give you a pillow when you're sleepy, and someone will give you a fan when it's hot." "The specific mission is: There are more than a dozen Japanese coming from the direction of Wangzhuang. They don't know that this is our base. Take your company and go down the mountain to eliminate them immediately.”
Sixth Brother accepted the order and left. Bai Yihua ordered Shi Shoutian to lead a platoon and follow closely behind.
Shi Shoutian followed Sixth Brother down the mountain. They came to a bend in the mountain road. Shi Shoutian ordered his troops to stop and lay in ambush. Sixth Brother led the team forward. After walking for another mile, they found the Japanese. Sixth Brother ordered everyone to hide and wait until the Japanese came closer. Perhaps it was because one of his soldiers was nervous that the gun in his hand went off. This alarmed the Japanese. After a short hesitation, the dozen Japanese immediately pounced on them. Old Six saw that the Japanese were already approaching and gave the order to shoot. However, there were only sporadic gunshots around him. He turned his head and saw that many people had run back along the ravine. Sixth Brother led these people to resist for a while, but they couldn't hold on anymore. He had no choice but to retreat. When the Japanese saw that Sixth Brother and the others were so weak, they thought that they were just a small group of guerrillas and chased after them desperately. This meant that Sixth Brother and the others had brought the Japanese into Shi Shoutian's ambush.
After Sixth Brother and the others passed Shi Shoutian's position, he suddenly heard intense gunfire behind him. He turned around and saw that in just a few minutes, Shi Shoutian and the others had already wiped out the Japanese.
Shi Shoutian and his soldiers returned to the camp with the spoils of war. Sixth Brother didn't expect this outcome either. He lowered his head. Bai Yihua took this opportunity to summarize the battle."Company Commander Six's strategy is only a middle strategy. If his troops were well-trained, they would definitely win. The main reason for this defeat is not Sixth Brother, but his soldiers. To be honest, Sixth Brother's soldiers had a natural fear of the Japanese. Perhaps it was because it was their first time facing the Japanese head-on, and their military skills were not up to standard, so they lost. But Shoutian and the others were different. They had fought against the Japanese in the northeast for five years, and they had faced the well-trained Kwantung Army. Therefore, they were not afraid of the Japanese. At the same time, during the battle with the Japanese Kwantung Army, they had paid the price of blood to improve themselves. Therefore, these dozen Japanese were nothing to them. This is also the reason why Commander Xiao asked us to train. How is it, Sixth Brother? You can see the difference now, right? Go back and train properly. In fact, comrades, none of us knew how to fight since we were born. All these experiences were accumulated bit by bit from our daily training. If we don't want to bleed on the battlefield, we have to sweat more. She even wanted to cry. Now, I will announce our training arrangements. Caishan, you will be in charge of Wang Zhenjun's 7th Company, and Shoutian and your 6th Company. All the officers above the platoon rank must participate in the training. The training of the officers will be handled by me and the political commissar. The main content of our training is to understand the enemy's situation and formulate a battle plan. I hope that when the soldiers of our Independent Regiment are dragged into the battlefield, they will all be like ferocious tigers.”Bai Yihua's words won a round of applause.
As a result, the Independent Regiment started to train their soldiers. Cai Shan and Shi Shoutian had different training methods, each with their own characteristics. The focus of their attention was different. However, the severity of their treatment of the soldiers was the same.
The main purpose of the training at Caishan was to train the soldiers in shooting. He trained in a few steps. The first step was to practice aiming. He didn't let the soldiers touch their guns when he practiced aiming. He first practiced the eyes of the soldiers. He had the warrior stand at attention and stare at something in front of him. These things were all made from local materials. This group of people might be staring at the gourd, and that group of people might be staring at the red heat. He first drew circles on it, and after staring at it for a few days, it became a black dot. Moreover, he stared at it for more than ten minutes, and the time increased bit by bit. After this stage, the second stage of Caishan was aiming. This was also done in a few steps. The first step was to aim. When the soldiers 'arms stopped trembling, they would hang stones on their spears. After a few days, the soldiers 'arms were swollen from training. However, Cai Shan still let them train the next day. However, before going to bed at night, he would bring hot water to the soldiers with his comrades in the kitchen to let them have a good warm. In the end, these soldiers stood there for half an hour without moving their spears. After the training ended, Cai Shan wanted to let the soldiers go through a live ammunition test, but he was stopped by Bai Yihua.""Right now, we are extremely short of ammunition. The only way to test them was on the battlefield.”
