He flipped through the book in his hand.
Iron Bull compared the content with the artillery knowledge he knew.
Iron Bull's learning efficiency was very high under this kind of learning method.
Because he had the innate skill of photographic memory, he was able to memorize all the contents of the book after reading it once.
Remembering the content did not mean that he could understand it. Iron Bull knew this very well.
Therefore, he consciously controlled his reading speed and tried his best to understand all the contents of the book.
However, without the guidance of a teacher, Iron Bull had accumulated a lot of doubts and could not get an answer.
Three hours later, Iron Bull finally finished reading a book.
He closed his eyes and digested the knowledge in the book.
This book talked about the requirements for artillery combat, which made Iron Bull feel that he had gained a lot.
He opened his personal interface and took a look. Iron Bull realized that he did not have an additional skill, which made him a little disappointed.
Iron Bull rubbed his stomach. After reading for so long, he was a little hungry.
When they arrived at the canteen of the regiment headquarters, there weren't many people there. It was already one o'clock in the afternoon, and it was already past lunchtime.
"Squad Leader Wang, is there anything else to eat?"
Iron Bull asked when he saw Squad Leader Wang, who was busy cleaning.
Squad Leader Wang was almost forty to fifty years old. As the squad leader of the kitchen squad, he had always done a good job.
Unlike the image he saw in the TV series, as the leader of the cooking squad, he looked a little thin and his back was a little hunched.
It was not an easy job to be responsible for the meals of one to two hundred people.
"There are still a few pancakes left. They should be cold. Do you want me to heat them up for you?”Seeing that it was Iron Bull, Squad Leader Wang responded enthusiastically.
In the previous battle to break out of the encirclement, the cooks had also participated, even though they were the last to follow the group.
However, Squad Leader Wang knew about Iron Bull's performance in the battle and admired him very much.
If any ordinary warrior came, he would definitely be scolded by Squad Leader Wang. He didn't eat properly at mealtime, but now he came here to ask for food.
"No need, no need! It's fine." Iron Bull hurriedly stopped him.
It was March 1940, and the weather in northwestern Shanxi was fine. It was fine to eat cold pancakes.
The cooks in the Anti-Japanese War didn't have rice cookers or anything like that. They needed to burn firewood to cook, so Iron Bull didn't want to trouble Squad Leader Wang and the others.
Iron Bull left the kitchen with a few cold pancakes. He took out a pancake and stuffed the rest into his arms to keep warm.
Chewing on the pancake in his hand, Iron Bull walked towards the 1st Battalion.
The new regiment had three battalions and two companies. The three battalions formed a triangle around the regiment headquarters, while the two companies were the communication companies and the security companies directly under the regiment.
If he wanted to select suitable soldiers to train as artillery, Iron Bull would need to visit the three battalions.
Among the three battalions, Tie Niu had a good relationship with Zhang Dabiao, the 1st Battalion Commander. This was also why Tie Niu had come to the 1st Battalion first.
After walking for less than ten minutes, Iron Bull arrived at the 1st Battalion.
Along the way, Iron Bull could see many soldiers on guard.
In order to ensure the safety of the regiment headquarters, it was necessary to have enough soldiers to maintain vigilance.
At the same time, Iron Bull could also see soldiers training.
As soon as he arrived in front of the 1st Battalion, Iron Bull heard a series of battle cries coming from the 1st Battalion. It seemed that Zhang Dabiao was training the warriors of the 1st Battalion.
"Stop!"
A soldier called out to Iron Bull with a vigilant expression.
Looking at this soldier, Iron Bull could see that this soldier was a little immature. He should not have reached adulthood yet.
Those thin and weak bodies looked like they could be blown down by a gust of wind.
The young soldier held the 38th rifle tightly in his hand and looked a little nervous.
"Who are you? Why have you come to our 1st Battalion?" The little warrior looked vigilant.
Iron Bull laughed. This little warrior was very interesting.
Thinking that this young warrior might have just joined the 1st Battalion, Iron Bull didn't pay much attention to him.
"I'm an artillery officer from the Regiment Headquarters, Iron Bull. Just go and inform your Battalion Commander Zhang.”Iron Bull said with a smile.
The young warrior looked at Iron Bull seriously, and after telling another warrior not far away, he ran towards the 1st Battalion.
Iron Bull was a little surprised to see the young warrior leave.
It seemed that Zhang Dabiao, the Battalion Commander, had asked the soldiers of the no. 1 battalion to maintain such a vigilant state.
The warrior standing not far away recognized Iron Bull, but he did not let Iron Bull enter directly.
Iron Bull didn't have to wait for too long before the young warrior came back to inform Iron Bull that he could go in.
Under the lead of the little warrior, Iron Bull walked towards the 1st Battalion.
Passing by a few houses, Iron Bull could see the soldiers of the 1st Battalion training.
The soldiers were a little thin and weak, but when they shouted, they were still filled with killing intent.
Looking at these thin and weak warriors, Iron Bull's heart felt a little heavy.
In the new regiment, most of the soldiers looked like this, not to mention the other troops.
With Li Yunlong as their regiment commander, the treatment of the new regiment was not bad. They could eat meat a few times a month and could guarantee three meals a day.
But even so, the bodies of the soldiers still appeared thin and weak.
If he wanted to make the bodies of the soldiers stronger, he needed to let the soldiers eat more meat.
Due to the lack of nutrition, the soldiers could not train for too long. Usually, the training would end after two to three hours so that the soldiers could have a good rest.
"Niu Zi, why are you here?”
When Zhang Dabiao saw Iron Bull, he stopped what he was doing and walked over.
The other soldiers continued to train. The soldiers of the 1st Battalion were very strict with Zhang Dabiao.
This was also one of the reasons why their 1st Battalion was so strong.
"Brother Zhang, you know that I'm the only artillery left in our regiment. The regiment commander asked me to train a few more artillery, so I came to you to find some good seedlings.”
Iron Bull said helplessly.
The new regiment didn't have much artillery to begin with. Now that they needed to replenish their artillery, they naturally needed the support of Zhang Dabiao, the first battalion commander.
"Is that so? Alright, how can I not cooperate with you as your brother? Choose, take whoever you like." Zhang Dabiao said in a deep voice.
"Thank you, Big Brother Zhang.”
It would be difficult to select soldiers from the other battalions.
Because the new regiment was already lacking in soldiers, it was difficult for the three battalions to replenish their forces, let alone letting Iron Bull pick some to become artillery.
The new regiment still had three Type 92 cannons and three mortars.
Each infantry cannon required at least five people to operate, and each mortar required at least two people. In other words, Iron Bull needed at least twenty people.
In addition, there were some logistics personnel, so thirty people were still needed.
Iron Bull had been a little worried about where he could gather these 30 people.
Now, with Zhang Dabiao's cooperation, he could relax a little.
Thank you for the evaluation votes, everyone!
