Hearing this, Xu Zhigeng immediately walked over.
After saluting each other, the signalman took out the document.
"Comrade Xu Zhigeng, after the headquarters 'research, in view of your outstanding contribution to the team, you will be awarded a first-class merit and the independent regiment will be awarded a second-class merit.
At the same time, I hereby appoint you as the battalion commander of the 4th Battalion of the 386th Brigade Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army.”
The signal soldier handed the things in his hands to Xu Zhigeng.
Xu Zhigeng was stunned. He didn't expect to be promoted? Now, he had actually become a battalion commander?
Moreover, he had also obtained a first-class merit. This was really not bad. In the future, only people who had made outstanding contributions could obtain such honor.
He saluted and took the appointment letter.
After completing his mission, the signalman left.
"Platoon leader, you're actually a battalion commander now.”Zhao Xiong walked over happily, and Zhao Xiaowu and the others also smiled in delight.
Xu Zhigeng smiled slightly." That's right. This appointment came at the right time. I will redistribute our people. The company commander, platoon leader, and squad leader will all need to be reappointed.”
Zhao Xiong and the others nodded.
Very soon, the abacus picked out a total of 40 people who had good math skills.
"Good!"
Xu Zhigeng nodded.
"Alright, Abacus, those who can do math will be appointed as the artillery company. I appoint you as the company commander of the artillery company.”
Xu Zhigeng was free to appoint his subordinates. After all, the headquarters did not care about departments below the regimental level.
Now that he was no longer in the regiment headquarters, he could make his own decisions.
"Yes, sir!" Abacus nodded happily.
He didn't expect that he would become a company commander after being a soldier.
He swore that he would work hard and not disappoint Xu Zhigeng.
"A company consists of 128 people and three platoons.”
"1 instructor, 1 deputy company commander, 1 deputy instructor, 1 chief secretary, 1 clerk, 1 communicator, 10 cooks.”
"A company has 128 people. Next, you have to think of a way to find someone to supplement your team. You can choose the deputy company commander yourself. I will send an instructor to you.”
Xu Zhigeng said to Abacus.
"Yes, Battalion Commander." Abacus saluted.”
After Xu Zhigeng finished speaking, he looked at Dopey."Dopey, I'm appointing you as the Company Commander of the Machine Gun Company. Don't you like shooting machine guns?”
"Yes, sir!"
Dopey stood up and saluted, looking very happy.
"Similarly, you can choose your own people. I'll arrange for you to be an instructor later. You can appoint the platoon leader yourself.”Xu Zhigeng said.
Although Dopey was young, he was good at machine guns and was a veteran soldier. He should be able to take on a heavy responsibility.
"Your Machine Gun Company doesn't have enough machine guns now, but you will get more in the future. You should train the people first. You only have thirty people now, and you can recruit the rest yourself.”
After he said that, Dopey led the Machine Gun Company to the side and formed a line.
"In addition, those who have played radio before, form a communication class. We only have one radio station now. You can learn how to use it first. I'll get more for you later.”The communications class was also established.
"The remaining soldiers should be 480 people. I will organize you into four companies, each company has 120 people.”
"Xu Wencai, Beard, Zhao Xiaowu, Zhang Congjun.”
Xu Zhigeng shouted.
Those people immediately stood up when they heard that."Here!"
The four of them stood straight in front of Xu Zhigeng.
Zhang Congjun was a fierce man. He used to be the third in charge, but he was later replaced by Beard. Recently, he had been training and found that he was indeed a talent.
Therefore, Xu Zhigeng planned to promote him.
"Xu Wencai, you will be the first company commander, Hu Zi the second company commander, Zhao Xiaowu the third company commander, and Zhang Congjun the fourth company commander.”Xu Zhigeng spoke again.
"Yes, sir!"
They saluted again.
"Xie Baoqing!" Xu Zhigeng shouted.
Xie Baoqing stood up.
"Here!"
"I hereby appoint you as the Deputy Battalion Commander. When I'm not around, you will be in charge.”Xu Zhigeng said.
Since Xie Baoqing was able to become the leader, he was not weak in terms of ability or commanding ability. He could be the deputy battalion commander.
"Yes, sir!" Xie Baoqing was happy.
He didn't expect that a bandit would become a deputy battalion commander in the blink of an eye.
He felt even more honored. He had to do his job well in the future and kill more Japanese.
A sense of honor was a very magical thing that made people unable to stop.
" I'll choose the instructors later. Alright, now, each company will start training on their own. The 400-meter obstacle course, marksmanship, and the 3 - 3 tactic that I taught you before. One month later, I'll hold a competition. I have a Japanese officer's pistol here. Whoever is stronger will get this pistol and a meal of red braised pork as a reward.”
Xu Zhigeng spoke again.
Upon hearing this, the company commanders were instantly excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood.
They were already rubbing their fists and ready to train.
"Yes, Battalion Commander."
After everyone saluted, they immediately began their training.
Xu Zhigeng and Xie Baoqing went back to the battalion headquarters with Zhao Xiong following them.
After arriving at the battalion headquarters, Xu Zhi looked at Zhao Xiong and smiled.
"Are you a little unhappy?”
Zhao Xiong had also followed him here. The people who came with him were all company commanders, but he was the only one who did not.
Even Zhao Xiong, a tough man, would not hide his emotions.
He nodded.”
What he had was what he had. He, Zhao Xiong, would not lie.
Xu Zhigeng smiled. He liked Zhao Xiong's temper.
"Actually, you're more than enough to be a company commander. But do you know why I didn't let you go and let Zhang Congjun go instead?”Xu Zhigeng asked with a smile.
"Report, I don't know." Zhao Xiong said loudly.
Xu Zhigeng smiled slightly." Because you're not bad. Whether it's your marksmanship or your skills, you've also studied and can read. How many people do you have now that I asked you to choose?”
"Battalion Commander," Zhao Xiong replied,"I've only selected ten people. They're all experts."”
The people he picked out were all literate, good at shooting, and smart.
Xu Zhigeng nodded." Alright, I'll tell you now. I'm going to set up a special forces team. You'll be the captain of the special forces team. You can choose a vice-captain. I'll personally train all of you.”
Zhao Xiong was stunned. Special forces? He had never heard of such a name.
However, Xu Zhigeng did not explain. Instead, he said,"Tomorrow, bring those people to the back of the mountain and wait for me.”
"Yes, sir!" Zhao Xiong nodded and left.
Xu Zhigeng then looked at Xie Baoqing and said,"Deputy Battalion Commander, I will leave the training of the next few platoons to you. I will personally lead the special forces.”
