At around four in the afternoon, the infantry unit of the regiment arrived. The people who were providing reinforcements seemed to have thought of the officer's problem.
This regiment had three battalion commanders, but no regiment commander. It seemed like they knew that if they sent a regiment commander, it would be causing trouble for Yan Wenbin.
These three battalion commanders were the commanders of the first battalion. Chen Chengye
Second Battalion Commander: Yu Fei
3rd Battalion Commander: Song Wenxuan
After that, Yan Wenbin reorganized his remaining troops. Originally, there were two companies, each company had three platoons, and each platoon had three squads. Yan Wenbin added the extra six squads to these two companies.
It was just right for each class to have one more shift.
The commanders of these two companies were:
Company Commander: Zhao Deli
Second Company Commander: Hua Qizhi
The three battalions that had arrived didn't have any equipment, not even light machine guns. Their deployment was also simple. Each battalion had 360 people, and the entire regiment had three battalions. There was also a guard company. It looked like the guard company from the regiment headquarters had been sent over as well.
Therefore, the reinforcement group that was sent had 1,200 people. Adding on the 304 people under Yan Wenbin, the total number of people under Yan Wenbin was about 1,500.
Yan Wenbin didn't disrupt their organization. After all, this was an established organization, so there was no need for Yan Wenbin to disrupt it. At night, Yan Wenbin made use of the supplies Xue Yue gave him to get the army to make a decent dinner.
"Brothers, from today onwards, I am your Guild Leader. I'm Yan Wenbin. Many of you don't know me, but it doesn't matter. We can slowly get to know each other in the future. In any case, from now on, you only need to understand that from now on, you are my soldiers. As long as I have a bite to eat, I will not starve you.
But if I say we're going to charge, we can't retreat. We are all Sichuan men. What was our purpose in leaving Sichuan? They were out to fight the Japanese. On the Songhu battlefield, we didn't hesitate. When the officer said to charge, we charged. If the commander attacks, we will attack.
I hope that the brothers can continue to carry forward this spirit. At the same time, I have to make a few rules here.”
Yan Wenbin stood on a small hill and looked down at the soldiers surrounding the fire. They were all holding lunch boxes in their hands, but they didn't say anything. They were all looking at Yan Wenbin, their superior.
"First, listen to my commands. Once the guns are fired, everyone must listen to my orders. Even if the emperor comes, don't move without my orders.
Second, no one is allowed to disturb the people. No one is allowed to barge into the homes of the people without permission and take a needle or a thread from them. Even if you are about to starve to death, you are not allowed to take anything without the consent of the people. "At the same time, take care of your subordinates. Don't do anything that violates military discipline. If I catch you, it won't be as simple as going to the military court.
"Third, all the spoils must be returned to the public. Hand over all the spoils so that we can make a count and distribute the spoils. We are an organization, a team. Everyone has to act as one and share as one.
Fourth, officers were not allowed to beat and scold soldiers at will.
Fifth, we must not intentionally damage the crops. During our march, we must avoid damaging the crops of the people and causing unnecessary losses to them.
Sixth, the damaged armor must be compensated and apologized, and must not be rude.
Seventh, whenever we fight against Japan, I don't want to see a living Japanese. I only want corpses. If anyone brings me a living Japanese, I'll make him lose his head.
Eighth, strictly abide by the army's discipline. Without my permission, nothing is allowed to leak out. Otherwise, you will be punished by military law!
.......
Yan Wenbin made a total of eight rules. These eight rules weren't many, but Yan Wenbin wanted to solve some of the current problems. Although there were some things that Yan Wenbin was unwilling to admit, it was the truth.
Take military discipline for example. In this era, which troops had the best military discipline?
A German Machinist! The German Machinists of the Central Army were currently the most disciplined troops. Although they were unwilling to admit it, it was a fact.
Many of the officers among the German Machinists, even a platoon leader, had graduated from the Central Military Academy. This is something that can be checked in history. I only know this after checking a lot of history. At that time, many graduates of the Central Military Academy were sent to serve as officers in the German Machinists.
As for the local troops, they often violated military discipline, and the situation was not light. This was a problem that Yan Wenbin had to admit, but at the same time, he had to solve it.
Yan Wenbin knew very well that an army could never be separated from the people. Moreover, if they wanted to gain the recognition of the people, they had to first solve the problem of military discipline. If your army often disturbed the people or even did something that angered the people, how could the people support you? They won't even have time to beat you up!
After he finished speaking, Yan Wenbin waved his hand behind him. A group of people carried wooden boxes and walked in front of these people.
What was inside?
Needless to say, it was the AK47 field army rifle. This was what Yan Wenbin had bought from the weapons store this afternoon. He had bought a total of 800 rifles and 200,000 bullets.
Previously, he had purchased 701 of them. Although 400 soldiers had died in battle, the weapons had been recovered when they were cleaning up the battlefield. Thus, to equip the entire army, he only needed to purchase 800.
800 rifles and 200,000 bullets had cost Yan Wenbin 6,000 gold coins. Now, Yan Wenbin only had 99,615 gold coins left.
Wooden boxes were placed at the foot of the hill. A soldier took out an AK47 field army rifle from inside, loaded it with a magazine, and handed it to Yan Wenbin.
"Da ~"
Yan Wenbin aimed the gun at the sky and pulled the trigger. Immediately, the sound of a rifle rang out.
"Oh my god! Is this a gun? It could actually fire consecutively. Was this a flower trap? But it didn't look like it. Could it be a light machine gun? That's not it either!"
Yan Wenbin's gaze swept across the soldiers below. After sweeping his gaze once, he looked at everyone and said loudly,"This gun is called the AK-47 Field Army. It's a fully automatic rifle. Maybe you don't understand what a fully automatic rifle is, but you don't need to understand it either. You just need to understand that its firing rate is faster than the Japanese's crooked light machine guns, and faster than the submachine guns that we German Machinists are equipped with.
It has the fastest firing rate among all the weapons our army is equipped with. However, his range is a little short, only 300 meters, but it's enough for us. Another feature of this gun was that it was relatively short. Compared to the three big lids of the Japanese, this gun was only 87 centimeters long.
So don't fight with the Japanese in close combat. Use bullets to solve all problems. Unless there was no other choice, he would never fight with the Japanese.”
When Yan Wenbin finished speaking, the Sichuan soldiers below looked at him.
"Do you like this gun now?”
"I like it!"
No one disliked weapons with powerful firepower. Although these soldiers were uncultured, it did not mean that they were stupid. They certainly understood how good it was to solve problems with bullets on the battlefield.
