Chapter 199 Expansion and Training Meeting

Returning to the base of Anhua Mountain Avengers Camp, looking at all the company commanders who came to hear the news, Hu Biao held a meeting without any rest. He listened to the report of Deputy Battalion Commander Xu Mingzhi, and learned about the current strength and personnel of the Avengers Camp.

It was learned that the five combat company commanders who had been expanded earlier were already full, each company had four platoons, and the company's strength was equivalent to that of a squadron of the Japanese army. As for equipment, almost without exception, they were all full-Japanese equipment, which was the only one in the entire army.

As for the logistics company and artillery company, the former has the largest number of troops, with nearly 300 people, while the latter has selected some disabled artillery from the backbone breakthrough troops. It is still full of people, and the artillery is mainly mountain artillery and infantry artillery.

Although the newly expanded combat companies are in short supply, most of the soldiers belonging to many of the companies are lying on the sickbed. However, after the wounded recover, they believe that they are not inferior to the other companies at all.

After listening to Xu Mingzhi's report, Hu Biao said in surprise: "So, our battalion has nearly 2,000 troops?"

"Yes! When General Gui came here earlier, he wanted us to evacuate with them, but the brothers didn't want to leave. As a result, when General Gui and his friends left, they replenished some troops and replaced a lot of our things.

At present, we have no shortage of supplies, weapons and ammunition. However, the food is only enough for one month to eat. Although I have ordered people to buy food nearby, the Japanese have implemented food control and the grain they can buy is extremely limited."

As the deputy battalion commander, Xu Mingzhi was awarded a commendation order from the military headquarters earlier, and even promoted him to lieutenant colonel. However, Xu Mingzhi knew very well that the true intention of those in the military headquarters to promote him was probably to win him over and balance Hu Biao.

But for Xu Mingzhi at this moment, his ability to be the deputy battalion commander is not only due to his own abilities, but also because of Hu Biao's trust in him. If he did something to betray Hu Biao, I believe that none of these company commanders could win over.

After all, Hu Biao only listens to Hu Biao. Even if the generals of the military headquarters come to give orders, it may not be effective! For the officers and soldiers of the Hu Biao, when they were the loneliest and helpless, Hu Biao brought them back to life.

This life-saving grace is enough to make them follow him to the death. Whoever dares to betray Hu Biao is the enemy who will avenge the shame and fight together!

Most importantly, Xu Mingzhi knew very well that the difficulty of avenging the shame camp was not limited to the loyalty of the soldiers. Without the supply from the rear, it was not easy to support such an army of nearly 2,000 people!

Even if the officers and soldiers in the camp do not expect to pay their wages, they always have to eat enough every day, right? At present, the Japanese regard food as military-managed materials. If ordinary people want to buy food, they can only buy it once every few days, and cannot purchase a large amount of food at one time.

Even those landlords who had food stored at home were warned by the Japanese. If the grain was sold to the anti-Japanese team and waiting for the fate of these landlords, they were likely to be executed by the Japanese army as a crime of "involving the anti-Japanese troops."

Faced with the situation reported by Xu Mingzhi, Hu Biao also said directly: "Old Xu, from tomorrow, send the guards out to inquire about the situation of the Japanese supply convoy on nearby highways, and also the situation of the Japanese garrison stationed in various cities. "

"Yes, battalion commander!"

"As it said, if we want to survive behind enemy lines, we can only make an idea from the Japanese. I believe everyone knows that Japanese are rich. As long as we find the right opportunity to grab their supply convoy, the supplies will be enough for us to spend a while.

Without food or clothing, we asked the Japanese. Without guns or cannons, we seized them from the battlefield. Secondly, it is necessary for us to build more bases in the later stage to expand our team and influence.

Only by obtaining the support of the people in the occupied areas can we survive and grow stronger behind enemy lines. The rules and regulations I formulated earlier must be implemented without fail. Whoever dares to bully the people, don’t blame our military law at that time!”

After saying this, Hu Biao said it again when he happened to meet bandits attacking the village on his way back, and then said: "Although Anhua Mountain is large, it can accommodate so many of us. But all our strength cannot be put together.

On the way back, I planned to choose a suitable place for building a base in Chunxian, Lincheng and Juxian, and divide some troops out of the camp. In this way, if the Japanese encircle and suppress the Japanese, we will also have room for roundabout battles."

Everyone didn't think there was anything wrong with Hu Biao's decision. Although the troops assigned to the division would lose the support of the battalion headquarters, in a sense, Hu Biao gave them the right to stand alone.

When the two new company commanders raised the question of medicine, Hu Biao was silent for a while and said, "This time I came out of Jinling, I brought some anti-inflammatory drugs and injury drugs. I will hand them over to the two doctors to treat the seriously injured as soon as possible.

In a few days, I will go back to Shanghai first. The medicines that are urgently needed in the camp will not have any problems when I come back from Shanghai. If possible, I will also purchase some power generation equipment and medical devices.

In this way, the injured who need surgery will be treated in time. Zhao Bing, is there any spacious underground caves on Mount Anhua? It is best to build a rear hospital in a hidden place."

Zhao Bing, who was questioned, quickly smiled and said, "Battery Commander, there are really such caves! Earlier, when we were suppressing bandits, we encountered bandits entering the cave. Later, we searched the cave and found that the cave was quite large.

Even in that cave, we seized a lot of food and money hidden by the bandits. But considering that the place is a bit far away from us, we gave up later. If we built a hospital, the cave should be suitable!"

"Okay, then you can take me to see tomorrow! If it is appropriate, build a camp there at that time and let the Sixth Company and the Seventh Company move there. When there is no combat mission in the future, you two companies will act as the guards of the hospital."

"Yes, battalion commander!"

After arranging the establishment of the rear hospital, Hu Biao immediately said: "It is a good thing to expand the team, but how to lead the troops well is also something we need to work hard in the future. Although I am the battalion commander, everyone knows that I am not good at leading troops.

My original plan was to let you go to the rear to accept the reorganization. But you chose to stay and work with me. I am very grateful for this, but I also feel that the responsibility is heavy. If there is anything I can't do in the future, please understand it."

"Battery Commander, the words are serious!"

"There is something I want to discuss with you in advance. The number of the Avenge Camp is only for internal purposes. In the future, when we fight behind enemy lines, we will definitely contact other friendly and neighboring troops behind enemy lines, and we also need to deal with the people around us.

I decided to ask for a formal number from the above, which is made in the form of a guerrilla brigade or a guerrilla detachment. The reason why I don’t use the number of the regiment and brigade is that I keep a low profile and don’t anger the Japanese to launch heavy troops to encircle us.

Another thing I must emphasize again is that since you have followed me, you must obey my orders unconditionally. If one day, you think I am not worth following, or if you have a better place to go, everyone can get together and part.

At least one thing I must remind you is that I am your supreme commander. Before I get my permission, even if your elders or some people in the military have issued orders, I hope you will ignore it.

I did not monopolize the power in this way, but I did not want to see that everyone was not in the same mind. In addition, the avenge camp has not received a single military salary so far. Although the money is not very useful to us, we still need military salary.

It was just that the troops were first established. Although we had seized a lot of money earlier, it would be difficult to pay all the money to buy food and supplies. Therefore, I will formulate a military pay system that can be afforded in the battalion and will be distributed to the soldiers on a monthly basis.

Secondly, the old brothers in the avenge camp know that we have combat pay, and everything we seize on the battlefield will be returned to the public. Then, according to the warrior's combat performance, we will give corresponding rewards. This kind of reward can be paid and things can be distributed."

Compared to Xu Mingzhi and others, they did not feel any surprise when they heard this. Du Ziyang and Qian Zhong, who heard Hu Biao say this for the first time, seemed a little surprised. But both of them were very wise and did not express any different opinions.

After all, even if they are behind enemy lines, how can they escort military pay? As for the execution of orders, unless someone takes the initiative to contact them in the future, they will not know what is happening outside when they stay in the mountains.

The radio stations of the Avenger Camp are placed on the battalion headquarters. Unless Hu Biao’s permission is allowed, no one dares to use them. For the two newly joined company commanders, since they have joined the Avenger Camp, it is natural to obey Hu Biao’s orders.

If they really don’t want to avenge the shame that day, they will just raise it. At least from Hu Biao’s words, they didn’t hear Hu Biao’s intention to turn against him. Some things are now open to the public, so they can save the trouble from going big.

At the end of the meeting, Hu Biao thought for a while and said, "In view of the current situation of the War of Resistance Against Japan, when I come back from Shanghai, I should bring a group of people to the front line to participate in the war. Therefore, I plan to form a spy company directly under my command.

The spy company commander was appointed by Lieutenant Xu Sandao, Lieutenant Qin Tianyou served as the platoon leader of the first row, and Lieutenant Chen Qiang served as the platoon leader of the second row. The guard platoon was incorporated into the spy company, and new members were selected from the entire battalion in the form of military competitions.

Lao Xu, you will have more things to do in the next few days. In addition to the corresponding reconnaissance tasks, you must also do a good job in selecting new soldiers. After the new players are selected, you will go back to Shanghai with me and I will be responsible for the training myself!"

"Yes, battalion commander!"

Du Ziyang and Qian Zhong, who participated in the meeting for the first time, looked at the other company commanders with envy and excitement, and also knew that the guard platoon should be the most powerful force in the entire battalion. All of whom can join this force are elite.
