Chapter 194 Get information and start deployment
"No, your third brigade is still living comfortably. I heard that last week your third brigade recruited all the young men from the same village."
"I'm afraid there are hundreds of people, and there are several villages nearby. I guess you have recruited a regiment of new soldiers this time, right?"
After hearing the words of Third Brigade Commander Xu Qingsheng, Ma Wen waved his hand and then changed the topic to the former.
Who would have thought that when Xu Qingsheng, the third brigade commander, heard this, he also said modestly.
"How can my gains be compared with yours? Compared with other brigades, I have gained more."
At this point, everyone tacitly stopped the topic, because they knew very well that other brigades would definitely not expose their true strength.
Perhaps only the brigade commander and division commander knew about this force, but other than that, people in other brigades definitely didn't know about it.
In the same way, they all hid their real big gains and did not show them. This is what is meant by making a fortune in silence.
Immediately afterwards, everyone began to discuss Su Yu's sudden recall.
"By the way, do you have any gossip? Why did the division commander call us back this time?"
"I don't know, but what is certain is that something must have been done. It turns out that every time they call us back in such a hurry, there is a big move, and this time will definitely be no exception."
When several people heard this, they nodded deeply and agreed.
"Yes, that must be the case. Normally division commanders won't call us back. Normally they would send us outside to develop troops."
"Is it possible that the Japs are making moves again? Otherwise, why would the teacher call us back?"
In this regard, the sixth brigade commander Wang Tian briefly thought about it and then shook his head and said.
"I don't know. At least our Sixth Brigade didn't notice any strange movements from the little devil."
"The same goes for our Fourth Brigade. The Japs' side has been very quiet during this period. We haven't noticed any unusual behavior on their part."
"Listening to what you said, I found that my second brigade was also like this. I didn't find any action by the little Japs."
"Okay, stop guessing, the teacher will know everything when he comes."
........
Just when several people were chatting in full swing, Su Yu walked into the conference room and saw a few people he hadn't seen for a long time, with a smile on his face.
"What are you talking about? I heard your voices from so far away. I know you have loud voices, but now that you are in the position of brigade commander, you still have to pay attention."
"Master!"
When several people heard this, they reacted instantly. When they saw Su Yu walking into the conference room from outside, they immediately said hello one by one.
Seeing this, Su Yu nodded in response, and then spoke.
"You must be very curious now, why am I calling you back this time?"
Everyone nodded in unison, saying that they were also very curious, because there was nothing unusual about the little devil during this period.
It can be said that the entire northwest of Shanxi was in a very peaceful state, and at this time, his division commander suddenly recalled him and others.
No matter how you look at it, it feels very strange to them.
"There is something big coming back this time. As for what the big thing is, let me explain it first. You brigade commanders can all introduce their respective military strength."
"Just introduce the number of people. No need to introduce the weapons. I know it better than you."
There is indeed nothing wrong with what Su Yu said. The weapons currently in the hands of the People's Army are all manufactured from Hua Village and the arsenals of later generations.
They would not be like the Eighth Route Army, which needed weapons seized from the Japs to arm themselves.
It is no exaggeration to say that they do not like the weapons of the Japs at all. After all, no matter what aspect is considered, the weapons currently equipped by the People's Army are far better than those of the Japs.
Take the rifles of ordinary soldiers as an example. The Japs have 38 rifles, while the People's Army has an AK-47 automatic rifle.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Japs’ 38 rifles are definitely not comparable to the AK-47 automatic rifles in the hands of the People’s Army.
Then there are the mortars. How can the mortars from the Little Devils be better than the M260mm mortars in the hands of the People's Army?
As for artillery, let alone the artillery. The little Japanese's hill cannon is simply no match for the M2/101 howitzer in the hands of the People's Army.
Finally, there are trucks, machine guns, tanks, armored vehicles, troops, and radio stations. The latter ones, no matter which one they are.
The things that the little devils have are much worse than those of the People's Army. Trucks? Are you kidding? KW-353 military trucks.
When it comes to machine guns, the gap is even greater. The mg42 general machine gun in the hands of the People's Army only needs a good position, plus a few mg42 general machine guns and soldiers such as machine gunners.
It can suppress many little devils to the point of being unable to move even an inch. Of course, this presupposes that the little devils do not have heavy weapons.
