In the end, after careful consideration, Liu Hua decided that he would choose the commander of the armored regiment from all the students in the teaching group. The reason for choosing these students is very simple. Many of these students are college students.
, with a certain level of culture, their ability to accept new knowledge and new tactics is obviously much better than that of these cadres, who are mostly farmers. In addition, many of these students are no strangers to tanks and have a certain understanding of them.
Understand that this is far beyond the reach of other cadres in the *** division.
After making the decision, Liu Hua began to conduct assessments for the candidates for the commander of the armored regiment. Of course, if you want to be the commander of the armored regiment, you must first have excellent skills. And the one who is satisfied with this day is to be the first to join the army.
More than a dozen students of the Communist Party of China. As a result, more than a dozen Communist Party members became Liu Hua’s first batch of assessment students.
With the list of more than a dozen people given to him by the political commissar, Liu Hua quickly called the dozen people to the headquarters and began to review and assess them one by one. During the assessment, basically everyone had to communicate with the division commander Liu Hua
The conversation lasted about ten minutes.
Of course, facing the unfamiliar equipment of a tank, most of the students' answers left Zhang Hua speechless. However, what made Liu Hua happy was that among these dozen people, Liu Hua still found a very talented person.
Many people, especially a young man named Yang Jinghua.
When answering a series of questions from Liu Hua, he not only answered them fluently, but more importantly, he also asked many very innovative questions. Among them, what Liu Hua valued most was his understanding of tank combat. In his eyes,
Here, although the power of the tank is very huge, it is not invincible. If it encounters a cluster bombing by a large number of aircraft, then death is waiting for him...
From his words, Liu Hua could feel that Yang Jinghua would definitely achieve very good results in tank combat in the future. In the end, after serious discussions with the political commissar, he boldly appointed Yang Jinghua to the Armored Division.
As for the leader of the regiment, as for the selection of the political commissar, in order to make people more convinced of this young regiment leader who has almost no qualifications, the political commissar will serve as the leader himself.
As for this newly established armored regiment, it has a total of four battalions, including three armored battalions and one infantry artillery battalion. Among them, each armored battalion includes a tank company composed of three tanks, a company of cooperating infantry, and another
It is a transport company containing eight large trucks. Finally, it is an infantry artillery battalion, equipped with six Type 92 infantry guns captured in this battle... The total strength of the regiment is 600, equipped with 9 tanks and 24 vehicles.
"Comrade Yang Jinghua, now in the name of the *** Division Party Committee, I officially appoint you as the commander of the first armored unit of our *** Division, that is, the commander of the 1st Armored Regiment. As for your political commissar, there will be
Division Political Commissar Luo Political Commissar will personally take charge of it. How about it? Do you have the guts to take over this task?" Yang Jinghua was called to the headquarters. Zhang Hua, Political Commissar, and Chief of Staff stood in front of him and announced this loudly, which made people feel a little bit uncomfortable.
Incredible command.
"Ah... Commander of the 1st Armored Regiment... But, division commander, I am only a squad leader of the teaching regiment now. If you ask me to be the commander of the regiment now, is it... Can the soldiers believe me? ?
?" After listening to Liu Hua's order, Yang Jinghua in front of him was stunned and asked in disbelief.
"Comrade Yang Jinghua, it is because your qualifications are too young that we are afraid that you will not be able to suppress the veteran soldiers below. That's why we let Political Commissar Luo serve as the political commissar of the 1st Armored Regiment in person to help you manage the troops. Therefore, in the 1st Armored Regiment, you are
Commander, no one will question you because of your qualifications. So you have to go into battle easily and train the troops well. How about it? Are there any problems?" Liu Hua explained with a smile.
"Yes, thank you for the trust of the division party committee. I, Yang Jinghua, will definitely live up to your trust and lead this unit well. Please rest assured, division commander." Yang Jinghua, who had just been relieved, replied loudly.
"Okay, you have the arrogance of a scholar who refuses to admit defeat. Commander Yang, after leaving this headquarters today, you are the commander of the first armored force of our army. How about it? Do you have any specific requirements or difficulties? Let us
Sit down and talk. If possible, I will try my best to satisfy you." Liu Hua was very satisfied with Yang Jinghua's unyielding answer. He pulled Yang Jinghua to sit in the headquarters and asked with a smile.
"Yes! Comrade Yang Jinghua, what are you worried about and what questions have you raised now? The task that the division commander and I have given you is that within a week, the armored regiment must be formed into an army. Within a month,
Within the armored regiment, the 1st Armored Regiment must form a certain combat effectiveness. In two months, the troops can be deployed on the battlefield... Although I am also the political commissar of the 1st Armored Regiment, I am not responsible for the training of the troops. Therefore, your task
It is very arduous. If you have any difficulties now, just mention it to the division commander. You must know that the division commander has done very good research on tank combat. You should have a certain impression of this during the assessment of you a few days ago."
Political commissar Luo Ronghuan also said with a smile.
"Yes, political commissar, division commander... Although the First Armored Regiment has been established, the number of soldiers in the unit. According to the plan, the entire armored regiment has 600 soldiers. However, except for the political commissar and me, it can be said that there is not even a soldier.
.At the same time, tanks, artillery, and automobiles are a kind of technical arms. Therefore, division commanders and political commissars, I want to select dozens of student soldiers in the teaching group to be responsible for serving as drivers of tanks and automobiles or low-level commanders. They all
It has a certain foundation of warmth. In this regard, the ability to accept new knowledge will improve much faster than ordinary soldiers..." Yang Jinghua suggested.
"Well, this is a good idea. These students are intellectuals with a certain culture and it is very easy to learn. In addition, they can train a large number of tank drivers for our army. Commander Yang, you can handle this matter.
, there are more than a thousand students in the teaching regiment, whoever you like is the one you want. In addition, I will allocate a company of troops to you from each of the three guard regiments. At the same time, I will allocate a platoon to you from the division artillery regiment.
Combat backbone, let you form the artillery battalion of the armored regiment." Zhang Hua nodded happily and ordered firmly.
"Yes, thank you, Commander. But, Commander, there is another question. Now in the entire *** division, except for you who can drive a tank, no one seems to know how to drive this. So, about teaching the soldiers how to drive a tank. There is also something about teaching the soldiers how to drive a tank.
Master, you..." Yang Jinghua said embarrassedly.
"Haha, Commander Yang, there is no problem. In the early days of the formation of the Armored Regiment, I will squat in the Armored Regiment and personally guide you in training. When the time comes, I will also give you some different tank combat methods.
.However, before learning these things, you must learn the most basic combat method of using tanks. That is infantry-tank coordinated operations. Next, I will explain to you what infantry-tank coordinated operations are." Zhang Hua did not hesitate.
He agreed. At the same time, he took out a pencil and a piece of paper and started to draw a sketch in front of Yang Jinghua...
"This infantry-tank cooperative operation has three combat modes, which are 1. The tank is in front, guiding the infantry. 2. The tank and infantry are on the same line, attacking together. 3. The tank is behind, following up.
Provide fire support to the infantry. In the first month, you will mainly train the cooperation between the infantry and the tanks..." Liu Hua explained while drawing a sketch on the white paper.
.......
In this way, the two people worked together around the tank and discussed it for several hours before it ended with Yang Jinghua's satisfied nod.
After the meeting, Yang Jinghua began to travel back and forth between the guard regiment, the logistics department, and the headquarters instruction group to form his armored regiment. The hard work paid off, and with his efforts, it only took five days.
Over time, the frame of the First Armored Regiment was completely set up. At the same time, all the troops of the Armored Regiment were fully deployed. And until this day, the First Armored Regiment of the *** Division was established under the order of the division commander Liu Hua. And there were
Political Commissar Luo Ronghuan personally presented the military flag of the 1st Armored Regiment.
"Comrades, from today on, you are a glorious soldier of our armored regiment. I am your regiment leader Yang Jinghua. From today on, I will take you to understand a new combat mode. What do you know?
It's called tank combat. At the same time, as the first batch of soldiers of the armored force, after the expansion of our army's armored force in the future, you will become the seeds and bring more soldiers to become one of us. So
, I hope that everyone, no matter which unit you belonged to before. After entering the 1st Armored Regiment, you will be a new recruit, and everything needs to start from scratch. Therefore, I hope that everyone, starting from tomorrow, will work with me, the division commander and
Under the guidance of the political commissar, we started a month-long training to show the whole army the grace of our armored forces. At the same time, one day, we will drive the tanks in our hands on the battlefield and kill the Japanese. How about it, comrades have not
Confidence, we will train our armored regiment to become the most powerful force in the entire army." Looking at the 600 energetic soldiers in front of him, Yang Jinghua, as the regiment leader, began his first speech.
"Yes...yes..." Immediately, the soldiers' roars rang out in the armored regiment's station. As the regiment leader, Yang Jinghua heard the soldiers' roars and saw their high morale.
He also showed a smile. Because from the roar of the soldiers, he felt that the soldiers had recognized him as the leader. At the same time, it also indicated that he had made great achievements in his first speech in front of the whole group.
Results....
With the high morale of the soldiers, early the next morning, all the soldiers of the entire armored regiment, carrying their own weapons, came to the training ground to gather and began their first day of training.
As the three companies of the coordinated infantry, their training no longer emphasizes bayonet fighting with the Japs, but emphasizes the marksmanship of the soldiers. Because, on the battlefield, their mission is not only to open the enemy's breakthrough under the cover of tanks.
Another task is to protect the safety of the tank in front of you. Kill any enemy who dares to get close to the tank and threaten the safety of the tank.
Therefore, marksmanship is very important to these soldiers. The most important thing left is the 9 tanks of the three tank companies. On the first day of the training of the troops, Liu Hua, as the division commander, put down all the tanks on hand.
Things came to the training ground of the armored regiment, and they began to teach these tank drivers how to learn to drive tanks in the shortest time.
However, the tanks at this time can be said to be very crude, especially in terms of driving. In addition, more than a dozen tank drivers have driving experience. Therefore, a dozen drivers, after less than half a day of learning,
Everyone can drive the tank alone and run around the training ground.
A tank with strong combat effectiveness must not only have a qualified driver who can avoid possible enemy artillery strikes at any time. More importantly, it must have a weapons operator and a commander on the tank. The weapons operator includes two
A machine gunner, a main gunner, and an assistant gunner. However, these people are all talented in the secret service camp. All they need is actual combat training and adaptation to the environment inside the tank.
The biggest headache for Yang Jinghua and Liu Hua was the nine tank commanders needed by the armored regiment. In the end, Zhang Hua adopted the suggestion of Yang Jinghua, commander of the first armored regiment, and screened among hundreds of soldiers in the entire tank regiment, hoping to select one.
A qualified driver.
The hard work paid off, and after several rounds of elimination, a list of more than 20 fighters appeared in Zhang Hua's hands. The group leader, Yang Jinghua, was also very satisfied with the list in his hand. Because, 20
Among the many people, as many as 18 were student soldiers who had attended university, and half of the dozens of people he had recruited from the armored regiment appeared on these lists.
"Division commander, I think we should select the candidates for the tank commander from here. These people are basically college students and have a high understanding of tank combat. More importantly, they have a good understanding of new knowledge and new tactics.
The reception ability is very strong." Yang Jinghua, the regiment leader, held the list in his hand and asked the division commander Liu Hua in front of him.
"Well, these people are basically college students, so I think it's okay. But, Commander Yang, there are more than 20 people, and we only need nine people. I wonder how you think we should make the selection next?" Liu
Hua nodded, agreed to Yang Jinghua's proposal in front of him, and continued to ask.
"Teacher, I have a method here. I wonder if I can use it. This method is only used in many schools when selecting talents?" Yang Jinghua said cautiously.
"Comrade Yang Jinghua, you are the commander of our 1st Armored Regiment. I am here only to guide the training of the soldiers. As for the selection of the commander, although I have made some inquiries, the specific selection is your business. I
There will never be any opinions. So, if you have something to say, just say it and don’t be coy. You have to remember that you are no longer a college student, but a team leader in charge of hundreds of people.
Chief." Seeing the cautious leader Yang Jinghua in front of him, Zhang Hua frowned and said.
"Yes, division commander, I understand. Division commander, my opinion is very simple, that is, first conduct a week-long training for more than 20 candidates. Of course, the training content is all about tank combat, but this training
Only you can serve as the division commander. After a week, after conducting certain assessments on these people, we will select the top nine soldiers as vehicle commanders. Of course, the remaining dozen soldiers will not have no chance.
They will become the backup candidates for the vehicle commander. When our army has enough equipment, they will have the opportunity to display their talents." Yang Jinghua introduced.
"Okay, this is a great idea... Commander Yang, let's do it this way. In addition, during this week's training, not only the two dozen soldiers, but also all the cadres above the platoon level of the entire armored regiment will be trained.
Called here to observe. As a cadre of an armored regiment, you can't even understand the most basic tank combat methods." After hearing Yang Jinghua's plan, the division commander Liu Hua couldn't help but marvel. Because Yang Jinghua's plan made Liu Hua think of
The phalanx for cultivating talents that is often used in the workplace in later generations is to train first, then assess, and then go on to work....
With a specific training plan in place, the training of the entire armored regiment slowly became formal. Similarly, division commander Liu Hua successfully selected nine vehicle commanders after conducting a week-long training on dozens of candidate vehicle commanders.
long.
What is different from the enthusiastic training of the entire army of the *** Division is that the little Japs in the entire Shanxi territory, especially those in the strongholds around the *** Division base area, are in one infantry regiment and two brigades in Guandong.
After a total of 6,000 imperial soldiers in the army were wiped out by the Japanese division with lightning speed. Not only the chief of staff of the North China Garrison Army, the planner of the entire campaign, was criticized by the military, but even he took office less than a month ago
The commander, Lieutenant General Tada Shun, was almost sent to a military court for trial over this incident.
After this incident, the North China Garrison Army, which had just had more troops due to the arrival of Kwantung Army reinforcements, once again faced a crisis of tight military strength. Faced with this situation, various counties and cities, according to the little devil in the store,
He no longer had the courage to go out of his stronghold to harass the famous Eighth Route Army. Instead, he stayed in the stronghold every day, praying to the Eighth Route Army's assassins not to target his stronghold.
As a result, while other battlefields across the country were raging with fierce battles, the North China battlefield was very calm. Both the enemy and our armies were under the command of their respective commanders and restrained themselves as much as possible. However, such calmness
, for the *** type, it is a very good development opportunity for the entire Eighth Route Army behind enemy lines.
