"Reporting to the regiment commander, since I joined the army, I have food to eat and cannonballs to shoot. It's not hard!”The little warrior puffed out his chest and said with a serious expression.
Gu Xun was speechless.
Why are there honest people everywhere…
Gu Xun coughed lightly to hide the embarrassment on his face. He put on a stern face again and patted the little warrior's shoulder before returning to the group.
Clearing his throat, Gu Xun said,"
"The reason why I let the second battalion commander form a reserve artillery platoon is to prepare for war!”
Glancing at the serious faces of the soldiers, Gu Xun continued,"
"But when we were fighting, how could we let six platoons use one cannon? This is a huge waste of our military strength!”
Of course, what Gu Xun said was only limited to Regiment 369.
In the Chinese army, it was quite common for several platoons to take turns to serve a cannon.
Although the Chinese army had very few suitable artillery talents, the number of cannons that the army could pull out was even fewer. When the two sides were compared, there was the illusion that there was an overflow of talent.
Gu Xun raised his hand and pointed at Ling Yishan not far away.
"All reserve artillery platoons, listen up. At the foot of the mountain on the other side, I have already prepared your mortars! From today onwards, every platoon would have their own cannon!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the soldiers of the artillery platoon who were listening to Gu Xun's instructions had an uncontrollable excitement on their faces.
If not for the limited conditions, who would want to share a cannon with others?
In the end, the regiment commander had already prepared a sufficient number of mortars for them on his first inspection?
Happiness came too suddenly. The warriors looked at each other, even doubting their ears.
There were nearly a hundred artillery platoons here!
The group leader's hands and eyes were all visible to them, but he actually managed to get over a hundred mortars while chatting and laughing?
Even a powerful background was not enough to describe how resourceful the regiment commander was. Even the national team, which was far away in Chongqing, could not gather hundreds of mortars so easily!
The other officers in the regiment headquarters watched Gu Xun's high-spirited back with different expressions in their eyes.
Although most of them were excited and proud of the further expansion of the 369th Regiment, Gu Xun's attack shocked them again.
In their eyes, the layer of fog on the group leader's body that was hard to see through became even thicker.
However, a hundred mortars was not even enough for the Chinese army. Could the regiment commander really…
While everyone was having wild thoughts, Gu Xun waved his hand at the soldiers of the reserve artillery platoon who were in ecstasy.
"Why aren't you bringing your mortars back? What are you waiting for? Second Battalion Commander, go and bring the hundred mortars that I have stored over there back!”
As thousands of thoughts spun in his mind, Sun Biao was suddenly called out by Gu Xun. He hurriedly replied,
"Yes, sir! Regiment Commander!"
Gu Xun smiled as he watched Sun Biao hurriedly lead the soldiers to the other side of the mountain to move the mortars. He then turned back to look at the other officers who had their own thoughts and didn't say anything.
It was normal to have his own thoughts. As long as it negatively affected the overall interests of Regiment 369, Gu Xun could acquiesce to the healthy competition between them. At the same time, he had to constantly ensure his authority and absolute control over the army.
For example, when distributing mortars to the artillery unit today, Gu Xun could have let Sun Biao take full responsibility. However, he still chose to personally come and inspect. After showing his face in front of the soldiers, he would personally announce the order.
It was so that everyone would remember:
It's because of me, Gu Xun, that all of you in Regiment 369 are where you are today!
Everyone in the regimental headquarters listened to the rumbling sounds of the training coming from the direction of the artillery teaching detachment. They stood together with Gu Xun and waited for the soldiers to deliver the mortars back.
Finally, when the soldiers of the reserve artillery squad happily returned with their mortars, the officers of the regimental headquarters were shocked and couldn't help but gasp.
If one did not see it with their own eyes, they would never understand the visual impact of hundreds of mortars appearing at the same time.
If they were to follow the wartime deployment regulations, and there was sufficient distance between the various mortar groups, then these hundred mortars alone could be placed out of everyone's line of sight!
Chief of Staff Liu Rui paused for a long time before he said in a respectful tone,
" Congratulations, Regiment Commander. With these 100 mortars, the artillery of my 369th Regiment has finally become an army…"
Gu Xun smiled and waved his hand. Looking at the complicated expressions in everyone's eyes, he asked casually,
"Everyone, now that I say that the island army is digging their own grave by sending only a Class A division, do you still have any doubts?”
Some people unconsciously swallowed their saliva, but they still shook their heads together with the others.
With the addition of these 100 mortars, the 369th Regiment's equipment quality and quantity had already surpassed the A-grade division. The number of grenade launchers was three times that of the A-grade division!
Gu Xun also added the German-made Grw34 mortar this time. The officers of the 369th Regiment, who were quite familiar with this kind of mortar, knew very well that its performance could be said to be completely superior to the mortars equipped by the island army.
Right now, the 369th Regiment was facing the island army's A division. The only obvious disadvantage was that they only had one-third of the enemy's numbers.
However, the 369th Regiment had never planned to fight the main force of the island army alone. The Chinese army easily had a numerical advantage of five times that of the island army. They could easily turn the tables!
