The gifts of a battalion of 480 rifles, 16 Czech light machine guns and 6 Maxim heavy machine guns are very tempting. In addition, both sides are old men of the 19th Route Army. The love is still there, especially Zhang Yan also knows
The Sichuan Army took in Liu Lang, the man who guided the three to four thousand remnants of their own army, and their affection was even more profound.
Logically speaking, it was easy for Liu Lang to ask him for help.
However, love is love, but Liu Lang opened his mouth and asked for more than 700 veterans, which made Zhang Yan heartbroken. Not to mention that more than 700 officers and soldiers were enough to support a battalion and another company, and Liu Lang
What Lang wants is more than 700 second lieutenants and at least first-class soldiers, which is almost enough to support a regiment. How many people does Zhang Yan have in one brigade and two regiments? Based on more than 3,000 veterans, he also added some new recruits.
, the full attack only had more than 4,300 men. Liu Lang was lucky. He took away one-sixth of the newly formed 61st Brigade as soon as he opened his mouth, and almost took away most of the regiment. Even if he gave it to a battalion of equipment,
It can’t be made up for!
It's not that Liu Lang wanted to poach the newly formed 61st Brigade under the pretext of establishing a security group, but that there were more than 700 veterans, which was not a lot, but they were divided into 11 security groups, with an average of 70 people per group.
There are 15 people in the combat squad, which is just one squad leader per squad. No matter how small it is, the combat effectiveness of this security team will be as bad as those security teams in the Future Republic TV series that collapsed at the first touch.
Liu Lang knows the importance of veterans who have experienced combat. A new recruit, no matter how long he trains, is always just a soldier on the training ground. Before he has experienced actual combat, he will always be just a recruit. And the real battlefield is training.
The smoke of gunfire on the field is incomparable. Veterans who have never seen blood are holding the battle line. The recruits are either so frightened by the artillery fire and hail of bullets that they wet their pants and dare not even raise their heads, or they are so frightened that they throw themselves into confusion and shoot blindly. But these are still
It's not the scariest thing, but the scariest thing is to run back out of fear. One person taking the lead in escaping may cause a squad and a platoon to escape, and the retreat of a platoon may even cause the entire line to collapse.
Such examples are not uncommon in the National Army headquarters after the elite troops were lost in the Songhu Battle. Not all Chinese are afraid of death. On the contrary, most Chinese are not afraid of death. However, most of them have been training for several months or even
Even an army composed of ten and a half-month-old recruits often loses everything because one or a few people lose control of their emotions. This is also part of human nature.
On the contrary, the Red Army is much better in this regard than the National Army, which likes to recruit strong men to make up the numbers. Their approach is to use company-level instructors to do ideological work, and secondly, to use veterans who have experienced the Long March as grass-roots commanders.
, use their rich combat experience to give practical guidance and comfort to the recruits. Even if they are scolding, as long as they see that their squad leader is not afraid, the recruits will often choose to obey. As long as they have experienced an actual combat, the recruits will
If you quickly grow into a veteran, you will no longer have to worry about this.
Seeing that Zhang Yan frowned uncharacteristically and smoked a cigarette without agreeing to his request, Liu Lang smiled slightly and said: "I think Brigadier Zhang is in a bit of a dilemma, and Liu Lang won't let you do it. Why don't you do it like this, Liu?"
Can I just borrow it?"
Zhang Yan, who was in a dilemma, was stunned for a moment, "What do you mean by Brother Liu's words?"
"Look, let's do this..." Liu Lang said confidently.
When Liu Lang finished explaining his plan, Zhang Yan's expression changed several times and finally looked at Liu Lang with a half-smile.
It turns out that Liu Lang's words meant that you don't have to give troops, you can borrow them. Zhang Yan's new 61st Brigade dispatched a total of 770 first-class soldiers, sergeants and second lieutenants, with an average of 70 per county. The security regiments in each county
Establish a teaching team. To put it bluntly, it is a training camp for recruits. They temporarily serve as squad platoon leaders and serve as military training instructors. On a half-year cycle, after half a year, these officers will return to the 61st Brigade, and then 770 people will be sent over. The entire training cycle is
Two years or one and a half years.
As the commissioner of the 14th Administrative Inspection District, Liu Lang is responsible for raising travel allowances for the "business trip" personnel of the 61st Brigade who serve as instructors. At first glance, this sounds like a good thing for both parties. The 61st Brigade has obtained a battalion of equipment.
, the personnel who participate in the training can also earn additional training allowances while receiving military pay, and the security group has also obtained the military instructors they need.
But as Zhang Yan, who once managed to become the commander of an army, he was also a bright-minded person. In the end, he finally came to his senses. After a long time, borrowing troops was the real purpose of Liu Tuanzuo!
The lion opened his mouth at the beginning to make things difficult for him, which was just to lay the groundwork for borrowing troops. He has already refused once before, so it is hard for General Zhang to refuse such a "small" request again!
Of course, the most amazing thing about Liu Lang was not the blatant "cheating" Zhang Yan into borrowing troops, but the role of the training team he established. He used Zhang Yan's troops to train the security team and rotated them every six months, so he didn't have to worry about this.
Helping grassroots officers control the military power of the security regiment, after three rounds of training, the officers and non-commissioned officers sent by Zhang Yan were always just instructors and not officers in the eyes of the soldiers of the security regiment. The military power of the security regiment was always firmly controlled by the military officers sent by Liu Lang.
In the hands of the chief officer.
However, Zhang Yan was not angry because Liu Lang was guarding him like this. In his opinion, this was the way a military officer who ruled over an area should open up. With eleven thousand military power, if it was so stupid,
If you leave it to others, then you have to think carefully about whether it is worth keeping a friend like Liu Lang with Zhang Yan in the future. "Don't be afraid of opponents who are like gods, but be afraid of teammates who are like pigs" is not just a patent for people in the future, it has been from ancient times to
Today, the generals on the battlefield are most worried about this.
Otherwise, the generals would have to know who the commander of their friendly forces is before going to the battlefield. For those who are more stupid, the friendly forces will involuntarily stay away from him to avoid being implicated.
Liu Lang knew that Zhang Yan would find out about his "small-mindedness", but he had no scruples about it, because this would be enough for the Republic of China. If he was too selfless and treated everyone as his brother, he would be stupid in the eyes of others.
"Captain Liu, what if I still refuse? What will you do?" Zhang Yan looked at Liu Lang with a half-smile.
"No, you won't refuse." Liu Lang shook his head firmly, "You know, the reason why I train the security group in this way is not to expand my military strength and occupy some territory for my own selfish interests, Liu Lang, but to deal with the upcoming
of Japanese.”
"Are you so sure that I will also go out to Sichuan to fight against the Japanese pirates?" Zhang Yan's eyes suddenly became extremely hot.
Why did his 19th Route Army start an uprising in Fujian? Wasn’t it because he hoped that the Chinese nation could unite and fight against the outside world? Liu Lang’s words touched Zhang Yan’s heart. Sichuan, which is located in the hinterland of China, would send troops. Could it be that
In other words, is it still possible for China to be consistent with the outside world?
"The war is about to begin. All the land in China is a battlefield, and all the people in China are soldiers." Liu Lang replied decisively with a cold look in his eyes.
Zhang Yan stared at Liu Lang with blazing eyes without saying anything, and Liu Lang looked at him without fear.
There was silence for a moment.
"It's a good idea that all the people are soldiers. Just because of these words, I borrowed this soldier." Zhang Yan showed joy on his face and suddenly stretched out his right hand towards Liu Lang.
It is not a military salute, but a handshake, which is the most trustworthy sign between like-minded people in this era.
The moment the two pairs of men's hands held each other tightly, Liu Lang knew that the man in front of him who finally put down his guard would become his most reliable comrade in the future battlefield.
Because their big goals are the same.
Borrowing 770 veterans from the newly formed 61st Brigade, Liu Lang's independent regiment also quickly made adjustments. The entire regiment has 9 infantry companies plus two companies from the artillery battalion. Each company has a lieutenant and company deputy to serve as the deputy of the other 11 infantry companies.
The commander of the county security regiment, and each company sends six second lieutenants to serve as battalion commanders in the security regiment. In order to ensure the safety of these officers who serve as security regiment commanders, each company sends a complete combat squad to serve as security regiment guards and concurrently as recruit training instructors.
.
However, unlike those who were transferred to the security regiment and garrison battalion, the officers and soldiers who went to the security regiment still had their military positions, and the vacancies were also reserved. Moreover, Liu Lang's military rank in the security regiment also cleverly used the popular job ranks in the national army.
In other words, if the leader of the security group has the rank of major, then the lieutenant will have the rank of major. However, when he leaves the security group and reports back to the independent group, he will still be a lieutenant. Major is his official rank, and lieutenant is his actual rank.
At the same time, their mission is not only to train security regiment soldiers, but also to find outstanding talents and send them to the independent regiment base for training and then return to serve as their deputies. Once there is a war, except for a few people from each security regiment, most of them will
Some officers need to rush back to the independent regiment to join the war.
The 70 newly recruited veterans of the 61st Brigade in each county will set up a new recruit training team, and these veterans will serve as grassroots squad platoon leaders to conduct regular army training for 1,000 young men selected from each county.
In other words, Liu Lang is not trying to build these 11 security regiments into 11 regiments of combat troops, but to build them into 11 supplementary regiments, from which recruits can be drawn at any time to supplement independent regiments, security regiments, or guard battalions.
.
Moreover, what Liu Lang will do next is more than that.
All the people are soldiers, this is not just empty talk, Liu Lang wants to turn it into reality, at least in northern Sichuan.
