"Yes, sir!"
Li Feng nodded solemnly.
Then, he turned to look at this old comrade who would be his partner in the future. He first saluted and then extended his hand with a smile."Welcome, Comrade Yuan Kexiang!"
"I hope that the two of us can support each other in the future and lead Third Platoon to better development and win more battles.”
Li Feng welcomed Yuan Kexiang's arrival. There was such an experienced old comrade.
He could rest assured that he would hand over the military's ideology and political work to Yuan Kexiang and devote himself to the training of the troops and the war.
"Thank you, Platoon Leader Li Feng. We're all comrades, so don't be so distant. I'm a few years older than you and can be considered your big brother.”
Hearing Li Feng's kindness, Comrade Yuan Kexiang also smiled and said in a very friendly tone.
"Old Yuan, you can also call me by my name, or just call me by my nickname like Battalion Commander and the others. Scholar is also fine.”
Li Feng replied with a smile.
They were all revolutionary comrades who came together for the same dream, so there were not many conflicts.
After solving these problems, Battalion Commander Zeng, the instructor, and the others stayed behind to have a good meal before leaving Third Platoon's Little Liu Village overnight.
Battalion Commander Zeng and the others left, but Li Feng and the others did not rest.
At this moment, the soldiers were having dinner and had already gone to rest early.
However, in the courtyard where Li Feng lived, including him, a total of seven people were gathered.
They were Li Feng, Yuan Kexiang, Class One Squad Leader Li Changgong, Class Two Squad Leader Wang Fugui, Class Three Squad Leader Tian Erwa, Chen Yuan, and Jin (2) Sui Army Company Commander Wang. Company Commander Wang's real name was Wang Xiaohu, and he was from Mount Wutai in Xishan Province.
Company Commander Wang gave off the impression of a burly man. At first glance, one could tell that he was a strong man. However, when he heard the name, it sounded like Little Tiger, which did not match his appearance.
"I gathered everyone here to talk about our Third Platoon's composition.”Looking at the few of them, Li Feng did not waste any time and went straight to the point.
"The battalion commander and the instructor have decided that all the new soldiers will stay in our Third Platoon. Therefore, although our Third Platoon is now a platoon-level unit, our number is a company.”
At this point, Li Feng pointed at Yuan Kexiang beside him and said,"Old Yuan, Yuan Kexiang, our old comrade. He will be the deputy platoon leader of our platoon. Because we are still a platoon, we don't have the position of an instructor.”
"Although Old Yuan is the deputy platoon leader, he plays the role of an instructor, understand?”
As Li Feng spoke, his gaze swept across everyone.
"Yes, yes!"
Everyone nodded, including Wang Xiaohu. As the company commander of the Jin (2) Sui Army, Xishan Province was close to the border government.
In addition, the political committee system of the Red Army had existed for a long time. How could he not know?
Seeing everyone nod, Li Feng nodded and continued,"Because we have a total of 122 people in our platoon.”
"Therefore, I plan to build four main infantry squads, plus a reconnaissance squad, a supply squad, a grenade launcher squad, and a firepower squad. There will be a total of eight squads.”
"Among them, there are four main infantry squads and recon squads. Each squad has fifteen people, one squad leader and two deputy squad leaders.”
"Each squad will be equipped with 12 Type 38 rifles and a crooked light machine gun.”
"Grenade-thrower class, 11 people in class, one class monitor and two vice class monitors. It was equipped with 5 grenade launchers and 2 Type 38 rifles.”
"The firepower class has 12 people. There will be one class monitor and two vice class monitors. They were equipped with 3 light machine guns or 1 Type 92 heavy machine gun.”
"The supply squad consists of 20 people, one squad leader, two deputy squad leaders, 20 Type 38 rifles, and one crooked light machine gun.”
"Including me, Old Yuan, and the two communicators, there will be a total of four people in the platoon command center.”
As soon as Li Feng's thoughts about the three platoons and the weapons and equipment of each squad came out, everyone subconsciously sat up straight.
Everyone except Li Feng was shocked.
In the current Chinese army, the light machine guns were usually equipped by an infantry platoon, which was considered the best of the best.
In the Chinese army, a company was equipped with a light machine gun, and a battalion was equipped with a heavy machine gun. For artillery like mortars, a regiment might not have a company. Many had one or two of these.
But now, Li Feng actually wanted to learn from the Japanese and directly equip the class with light machine guns.
This wasn't what surprised everyone the most. The most surprising thing was that the firepower squad actually had three light machine guns or one heavy machine gun.
According to Li Feng's equipment, the entire platoon would have nine light machine guns, or one heavy machine gun and six light machine guns.
This firepower, even the Japanese would have to admit defeat!
"Is this the firepower of a platoon? Even a company wouldn't be so extravagant!”
For a moment, the same question appeared in everyone's minds.
