Chapter 177 The Special Forces Brigade was officially established, and the battle situation changed (1/2)
Three days later, Yang Jing successfully recruited more than 40 qualified new recruits in Hefei City, plus the remaining battalions and more than 70 elite veterans drawn from each company.
The number of troops in the Special Operations Brigade finally reached the initial estimate of 122 people, including the chief and deputy captains.
There are three squadrons, each squadron has four squads and one squad of 10 people.
Seven assaulters, equipped with 100-shot Thomson submachine guns, two machine gunners, equipped with bipods, and a 75-round drum mg42 universal machine gun; and one sniper, equipped with Mauser 98k sniper rifle, equipped with a 4x optical scope.
The reason why Yang Jing used the Thomson submachine gun as a standard equipment for the Special Warfare Team was of course because of its continuous firepower.
Special operations forces do not belong to conventional forces, so they naturally cannot charge from the front or fight positional wars like ordinary troops.
Their mission is mainly based on surprise attacks, so the sustainability of firepower at critical moments is the top priority at the moment.
In addition, there are also many necessary sub-weapons and military daggers for special forces.
As a result, the Tiger Ben and even the first special forces in China were born.
Of course, Yang Jing could not train special forces like he did in later generations. On the one hand, the cycle was too long, and on the other hand, the investment was too much.
Therefore, only this kind of low-paced special operations brigade can be formed.
Such special forces may be far from being compared with the special forces in later generations, but they can definitely crush any unit of the same size in the world.
After the establishment of the Special Wars Brigade, Long Yun was promoted to deputy captain by exception.
Yang Jing personally served as the captain and chief instructor, specializing in the training of the special operations brigade, teaching them, teaching them knowledge and concepts of special operations, as well as various physical training, techniques and valuable experience.
In the past three days, in addition to recruiting more than 40 special forces members, the Tiger Group also recruited more than 4,000 ordinary soldiers.
In addition to the nearly 2,000 veterans who survived the Battle of Nanjing, the size of the Tiger Regiment has exceeded 7,000.
While Yang Jing started training in the special operations brigade, he also asked Chief of Staff Ma Haifeng and Deputy Commander Wang Dali to start allocating and reorganizing the recruits.
The battle in Xuzhou will not take long and may happen. Yang Jing must improve the strength of the Tiger Ben Regiment as soon as possible so that he can vow to go to the battle when the war situation needs it and do his best.
With the special care of the Chairman, the Tiger Ben was equipped with weapons, equipment, and military pay according to the standards of the German division.
Almost all of the battalions are equipped with brand new formal rifles.
There are also many Czech light machine guns, Maxim water-cooled heavy machine guns, as well as various mortars, infantry guns, and field guns.
In addition, in order to improve the air defense and tank capabilities of the Tiger Ben Regiment, Yang Jing specially purchased a batch of German 37mm caliber war defense guns from the system mall, and the Soviet Union-made 12.7mm caliber DSHK anti-aircraft machine guns.
…………
With the expansion of the Hu Ben Regiment, its military strength has exceeded 7,000 people, and it is impossible for them to be stationed in Hefei City. Therefore, the Hu Ben Regiment has set up a military camp in the east of the city as a place for training for troops.
On this day, Yang Jing, as the regiment commander, came to the military camp located outside the city.
I plan to talk to the recruits so that they can know themselves as the regiment commander.
Otherwise, as the commander of the regiment, if the soldiers below did not know him, then the regiment commander would be too incompetent.
When Yang Jing arrived, all the veterans and new recruits of the Tiger Ben regiment had already arranged neatly on the school ground according to their respective troops' numbers.
Just wait for Yang Jing and other superiors to come and speak.
Yang Jing rode a horse surrounded by Ma Haifeng, Ma Tong and others.
He arrived at the center of the queue and stopped, turned around, and glanced at the soldiers standing by in line with a torch.
Long Yun and the Special Warfare Team were also on the list. Their brand new weapons and equipment and neat and new camouflage uniforms gave people a refreshing and elite feeling.
At this time, Niu Dazhuang was ordered to bring a high-power tweeter speaker and handed it to Yang Jing, the group leader.
If you don’t borrow some external force when speaking to thousands of people, even if Yang Jing’s voice is loud, the effect will not be much better.
At this time, the snow has not melted, the wind is cold and the temperature is extremely low, and the white air will spew out when you open your mouth and speak.
Yang Jing held the loudspeaker in one hand and held the reins in the other hand. He rode on the war horse with a majestic look. He glanced around with a sharp look, and then said loudly: "Brothers, I am your regiment commander Yang Jing. First of all, on behalf of all the soldiers of the Tiger, I welcome the recruits to join our Tiger Ben regiment.
From now on, we are a brother who is fighting bloody in the trench.
In the future, everyone should unite and work together to fight against the Japanese invaders.
Drive these dogs' Eastern miscellaneous things out of China and boost our country's power!
From today on, you must train hard and obey commands, because there is not much time left for you.
As long as two months, as soon as one month, we may have to go to the front line and continue to kill the enemy and serve the country!"
"Kill the enemy and serve the country! The Hu Ben team battle is invincible, kill and kill!"
"Kill the enemy and serve the country! The Hu Ben team battle is invincible, kill and kill!"
"Kill the enemy and serve the country! The Hu Ben team battle is invincible, kill and kill!..."
...
Thousands of soldiers from the Tiger Ben Group roared in unison and responded.
The huge waves of sound gathered together, deafening and rushing into the sky, scaring the birds on the surrounding mountains to flee in a distance.
After the soldiers shouted three times, Yang Jing raised his hand to signal them to calm down.
Next, Yang Jing delivered another passionate speech and then ordered the troops to be disbanded.
In the following period, Yang Jing, Fan Tietou, Chen Lin, Shue Erduo, and Tian Cheng and other battalions of companies, each trained the special forces and conventional troops separately.
At this time, the ratio of new recruits to veterans of the Tiger Ben regiment was about 1 to 2.
A veteran can basically bring two new recruits to the battlefield if he puts it in other troops.
Now the Hu Ben Group not only has time, but also the super instructor Yang Jing personally takes charge, using various advanced professional knowledge and training methods to temper the recruits.
Therefore, the running-in of new and veterans has been greatly accelerated, and the combat effectiveness has been improved significantly.
With the system, you can buy various foods, and the chairman's special care is also provided.
The Hu Ben Group doesn’t have to worry about food and nutrition at all, and the various training effects of the soldiers soared.
…………
The reorganized Hu Ben Group began to conduct regular training continuously under Yang Jing's personal leadership and supervision.
At this time, on the northern battlefield, the Japanese army had basically occupied most of Shanxi and Hebei.
Since the successive defeats of the Jinsui Army, the Central Army, and the Eighth Route Army in the Battle of Xinkou and the Taiyuan Defense War, the Jinsui Army, the Central Army, and the Eighth Route Army in Shanxi have suffered heavy casualties and are basically unable to engage in large-scale battles with the Japanese army in a short period of time.
They were forced to retreat to Zhongtiao Mountain in southern Shanxi, Wutai Mountain in northwest Shanxi, and Taihang Mountain in eastern Shanxi continued to resist.
Of course, due to the limitation of terrain, it is difficult for Japanese fighter jets and tanks to deploy in mountainous areas.
In addition, after occupying so many areas, the Japanese army must also divide some of its troops to maintain local public order and order to ensure their rule.
Therefore, the 1st Japanese Army in Shanxi was no longer able to continue to carry out in-depth pursuit of the Jinsui Army, the Central Army and the Eighth Route Army.
In this way, after the end of the Taiyuan Defense War, the situation in Shanxi has temporarily stabilized, and except for some small-scale guerrilla wars, there are basically no major wars.
In the southern battlefield, south of the Yangtze River, with the Battle of Songhu and the end of the Battle of Nanjing, a large number of areas such as Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai were completely under the iron hoof of the Japanese army in Central China.
The Japanese army was ambitious and decided to implement a strategic plan to advance north and south in order to connect the battlefields of the north and south and expand the invasion.
Its next battle goal is to capture Xuzhou and open up the occupation of Jinpu Railway.
The Japanese army advanced in unison with the north and south to attack, and at the same time carried out a strategic attack on a large area in Tongchuan.
In order to complete this plan as soon as possible and completely annex China, the Japanese army and the north and south are catching up on time to rest and replenish, and a steady stream of materials and soldiers are being transported from Japan to the northern Beijing-Tianjin-Yindustry and the southern Jiangsu-Shanghai-Hangzhou region.
Among them, the Japanese army in North China, with its elite 10th Division, the 14th Division, and the 5th Division after the re-elected personnel, sent more than 100,000 troops to the east and the Three Jins and began to advance to the land of Qilu.
…………
As the New Year is approaching, the land of China cannot feel the joy and excitement of the New Year in the past.
On the contrary, a New Year atmosphere under a state of war began to gradually cover the entire land of China.
Everyone is panic and cannot be kept alive.
Especially at the top of the National Party, almost no one can be happy.
A large area of land in Shanxi and Hebei has just been lost, and now the Japanese army continues to move south and invade Qilu, if the Japanese army achieves their wishes.
The next step will inevitably lead to advance west along the Longhai Railway, attack Shangqiu, Kaifeng, and Zhengxian, and then follow the Pinghan Railway Line to march southward, advance to Hubei and capture Wuhan.
If that step is really reached, most China may fall under the iron hoof of the Japanese army.
The more people are in danger, the more they will think of those pillars.
Many senior leaders of the National Party, especially the chairman, began to focus on the Hu Ben Group, which was resting in Hefei.
If every party and country officer is as unparalleled as Yang Jing, he will serve the country with loyalty and courage.
If every army was as brave and good at fighting as the Tiger Group, it would be invincible.
Why worry about the endless mountains and rivers, and why fear of not eliminating the mere Japanese invaders in the East!
Wuhan, leader.
Wang Shihe, the chief guard next to him, saw the chairman's face with a sad look, sighed, and couldn't help but say, "Sir, due to the heavy casualties in the Songhu battlefield and the Nanjing station, the Japanese army in China is still in a state of rest and no movement to advance north for the time being.
However, the war in Qilu has already started. The Japanese army's intention to open up the Jinpu railway line, allowing the Japanese army in North China to complete docking with the Chinese and Japanese troops, and then lead the army westward to achieve the strategic goal of completely destroying our China.
You see, can we transfer Yang Jing’s Tiger Ben over? With such an invincible force, we will surely greatly boost the morale of the soldiers in our fifth war zone.
To be continued...
