Chapter 5 The North China Crisis (The Seventeenth Pre-War Meeting II)
Although Ouyang Yun did not mention his name, Guo Da's face immediately turned red. Facing everyone's gaze, he gritted his teeth and stood up and said: "Military seat, colleagues, the attack on the Xifengkou military seat , I bear the responsibility, here, I ask for punishment." After saying that, he lowered his head and sat down, looking straight at Ouyang Yun,
Ouyang Yun also looked at him, paused and said: "In this incident, I am also responsible. Our army formed too quickly, and the systematic training and the deployment of full-time officers are not in place. Logically speaking, defense and other Small things should be taken care of by the security personnel, but due to the tight personnel, in fact, our chief officer has taken on too many responsibilities. This situation is probably unchangeable in the near future, so for the time being, I can only work hard for you. Okay. , let’s put this topic aside, and let me talk about another more serious situation. The contact battle that took place at Xifengkou last month. Everyone has read the battle report. The Second Xue Division and the armored forces have achieved good results. Some people must ask why they are not rewarded. Let’s talk about our armored forces first. In the battle, Hu Li’s troops destroyed more than 20 Chilo medium-sized tanks of the Japanese army with a battalion of tanks, and more than a dozen more. A bean tank, this result is quite good, because compared with the Japanese tank drivers, most of our young guys are on the battlefield for the first time. It can be said that they have no actual combat experience. However, based on our tank The performance is more than one level higher than that of the Japanese army. Therefore, I think this is the result they should achieve. I also expect them to perform better next time. Hu Li, do you have any objection?" He turned his attention to Hu Li, the latter stood up with a red face and said: "What the military commander said is the truth, I have no objection."
"I hope it's not because I don't dare." Ouyang Yun said, and everyone laughed.
Waving his hand, Ouyang Yun continued: "Now that we know the true intention of the Japanese's combat strategy this time, it was to provide cover for the actions of the 111th Team. Over the past month or so, I have often reflected on this battle. In addition to the gains and losses mentioned above, there is also a major discovery." At this point, he turned his eyes to Guo Da again, and Guo Da immediately realized what he was going to say next, raised his hand and said: "Military seat, this It’s up to me to do the talking.”
"good."
Guo Da stood up, his face slowly turning red again, and said: "If my guess is correct, the military seat should refer to the loss of ammunition." Seeing Ouyang Yun nod, he continued: "In We fought a total of three battles with the Japs at Xifengkou. In addition to the tank troops, we fought two battles with the ground troops. Among them, a company that was responsible for the first round of defense achieved a pretty good record. One company wiped out half of the Japs in the brigade. .”
Dan Renxiong exclaimed: "It's a very good record." Among the people, he was the only one who had not read the battle report. It was the first time he heard about it, so he was quite surprised. He was a veteran in the army and was in the special forces. He was particularly aware of the process and results of this kind of positional warfare. He also knew that the terrain of Xifengkou was not the kind where one man could hold off ten thousand men. In this case, a company of more than 100 people would have to annihilate more than 500 people. The devil really gives people the feeling of speaking from heaven.
Guo Da's face turned redder, and his voice was no longer louder than before, saying, "But, they used up all the ammunition they carried in one go."
"Oh." Shan Renxiong was stunned for a moment, then he did the math and couldn't help but clicked his tongue and said: "That's a big bang, that's more than 40,000 rounds of bullets. This, this is really..." He couldn't go on. According to this calculation, it takes eighty rounds of bullets to kill a Japs. Eighty rounds of bullets are enough to crush a person into pieces.
The equipment of the Xuebing Army is because the Wei Qing type is an automatic rifle, so the ammunition is much more abundant than that of other troops. You must know that individual Japanese soldiers are generally only equipped with 150 rounds of ammunition, while the number of ammunition provided by the Xuebing Army is Theirs was more than doubled, reaching four hundred rounds,
Ouyang Yun waved his hand for Guo Da to sit down and said: "Logically speaking, I should be proud of an enemy who wiped out half the enemy group in a row. However, considering the process, I can't help but laugh. It's not a problem with the bullets." , Eighty rounds of bullets can be exchanged for one Jaap, this business is worth doing, but have you ever thought, according to this method of attack, if the enemy continues to attack at that time, what will happen to the soldiers of the company where we have run out of bullets? Death is inevitable, and don't you think it's funny this way of death? Because there are no bullets in the gun, you can only wait for death with advanced weapons. If you tell me, you will probably laugh out loud. Comrades, this situation is worth it. We should be vigilant. Why did our pre-war training and martial arts results so well, but our performance on the battlefield was so poor? I regret it very much these days. Do you still remember Wang Dongbei, who is now a deputy commander of the Northeast Anti-Resistance Alliance? We had an agreement that all the guns and ammunition eliminated by our army would be given to them, and they would be responsible for bringing our new recruits to participate in actual combat. It is a pity that this plan could not be implemented due to various reasons. Now it seems like a big loss. Our soldiers are not technically incompetent, but have psychological problems. In modern military theory, the psychological quality education of soldiers is also a key training item, but we have ignored it before, which led to the above situation. In view of this Therefore, I am now announcing a military reform plan, that is, all units above the company level will be assigned an instructor to be responsible for the psychological counseling and guidance of soldiers. They will enjoy the treatment of military commanders in the same unit, except that they will not be responsible for military affairs. In addition to combat, in other aspects, we all have the right to know and make decisions. Everyone, don’t you have any objections?"
Li Tieshu asked: "Even if the above-mentioned troops are required to be deployed, how many people will be needed? These people must be selected from the military academy."
Ouyang Yun said: "In the future, we must go through systematic education. In these extraordinary times, we should first choose those with higher psychological quality and cultural quality. In principle, army officers at all levels can choose by themselves. However, I emphasize that nepotism is strictly prohibited. I I hope everyone will remember this. The instructor does not share your power. On the contrary, he is here to help you share the work. Take Guo Da's division as an example. After having a division-level instructor, daily tasks such as deploying defenses, etc. Can we just leave it to him? Guo Da can concentrate on training and fighting."
Seeing that the military commander mentioned himself again, Guo Da said: "I agree with this. If there is such an assistant, then I will have more time to work at the grassroots level, which will be good for controlling the army."
