"The second thing today is about the reorganization and establishment of the army.”
After saying the first thing, Li Yunlong continued,""Just now, Vice Commander Kong also said that the 800 plus brothers we brought back the day before yesterday have already agreed to join our independent regiment, so these people have to make arrangements.”
"In addition, we have acquired quite a number of cannons these few days, so the regiment has decided to form a Mountain Cannon Battalion.”
"That's great, that's great. We're really building a Mountain Cannon Battalion.”
"This is great. We finally have our own artillery.”
When they heard that Li Yun Long was really going to establish the Mountain Cannon Battalion, the officers present immediately exploded. Their faces were filled with excited smiles as they vented the excitement in their hearts.
"You good-for-nothings. A small Mountain Cannon Battalion has made you so happy. If we set up a Heavy Cannon Battalion in the future, won't you faint from joy?”Li Yunlong teased.
"Hehe, hehe!"
Zhang Dabiao and the other officers scratched the back of their heads and giggled.
Li Yun Long gestured for everyone to be quiet and then said seriously,""Although we have cannons now, our biggest problem is that we don't have any artillery that understands cannons, so…"
"Old Li, wait a moment."
Li Yunlong was interrupted by Kong Jie before he could finish his sentence.
"What's wrong?" Li Yunlong glanced at Kong Jie and asked.
"I didn't have the time to say it just now. According to my understanding, there are artillery soldiers among the 800 new soldiers.”
"And there are quite a few of them, about a hundred of them," Kong Jie said with a smile.”
"Really? That's great." Li Yunlong also smiled. As long as there was a group of people who had the foundation to lead the team, the training would be much simpler.
"Should we gather them now?”Kong Jie stared at Li Yun Long and asked.
"There's no need for that for now. Let's go over and take a look after the meeting is over.”
Li Yunlong waved his hand and continued the meeting.
"After careful consideration, I have decided that the artillery battalion will have three companies, three platoons, four squads, three artillery squads, and one transport and guard squad. Each squad will have nine people, one mountain cannon, and two mules and horses.”
"Each platoon is equipped with three mountain cannons, each company has nine, and the entire artillery battalion is equipped with 27 mountain cannons, about 400 people.”
" The requirements for the artillery personnel are higher. Of course, the first choice is to be someone who used to be an artillery officer or someone who is familiar with artillery. The second choice is to be someone who has a strong interest in artillery. The third choice is to be someone who has cultural knowledge. The higher the educational level, the better, especially those who are good at mathematics.”
"Artillery is different from infantry. Artillery needs to calculate many things when firing, such as elevation, range, coordinates, and so on.”
Although Li Yunlong, who had obtained the Encyclopedia of War, was not proficient in these professional knowledge, he already knew a thing or two.
"I have to make it clear here that the artillery is our top priority, so we will face the entire regiment selection. No matter which battalion you are selected to, none of you are allowed to obstruct me. If anyone dares to not cooperate, don't blame me for being rude.”
"Don't worry, Regiment Commander. Don't you guys know about this? All these years, which one of us hasn't been blown up by the Japanese? This time, we're finally going to build our own artillery battalion.”Zhang Dabiao said casually.
"Yes, don't worry, Guild Leader." The rest of the officers echoed.
"Looks like you brats have a good awareness.”
Li Yun Long smiled and continued," Your three infantry battalions are currently scheduled to have 400 people per battalion. The difference will be made up for when the time comes. In addition, the regimental headquarters will need to add two companies directly under you. They are the guard company and the reconnaissance company.”
"These two companies will also need to transfer a portion of people from your battalions…"
"There's one more thing. The selection of special forces members was delayed yesterday. Go back and tell your brothers that the selection will continue tomorrow morning.”
"Now that we're done with the issue of the organization, let's talk about the training.”
Li Yunlong picked up the porcelain jar and took a sip of water. Then, he turned to the door and shouted,""Monk, bring up my things.”
"Yes."
The monk walked in with a stack of pamphlets.
"Give each person a copy." Li Yun Long ordered.
After the monk was done, Li Yunlong swept his gaze across the confused crowd and said seriously,""The booklet in your hands is the infantry training manual I just got. From now on, our training will be carried out according to the requirements on it.”
"Infantry training manual?"
Everyone present was stunned. Everyone had heard of the term Infantry Training Manual, but the Eighth Route Army did not have such a high-class thing.
In this period of China, only the national army had such a thing, but it was said that it was copied from the German instructor, and it was incomplete.
"Old Li, where did you get this infantry training manual?”Zhao Gang asked excitedly.
"This is a secret."
Li Yunlong casually brushed it off. Damn it, do you want me to tell you that this is a product of the system?
"Don't worry about where it came from. Just train it according to the requirements.”
"There's one more thing that you must remember. You are not allowed to reveal any of the contents of this book to outsiders. This is the discipline. Remember this. If anyone dares to leak it, don't blame me for being rude.”
Li Yunlong shouted solemnly.
"Yes."
The people present naturally knew how precious this thing was, and they understood his instructions very well.
