Chapter 503 Reorganization of the Independent Battalion (1)
No matter how much the three major generals and division commanders secretly criticized Tang Dao as a little expert wielding a hoe, this was the military camp.
An iron camp and flowing soldiers!
Some people leave and some come.
After putting away the sentimental emotions of parting, Tang Dao took Lei Xiong and others to see off several generals. Wang Gongyu was also very straightforward, turning around and leaving without any hesitation.
It can be seen that this person who was able to reach the position of a fifth-grade official in the officialdom did not come out of thin air. Once he made a decision, he would never look forward or backward.
After losing the remnants of the Songjiang Security Regiment that he spent a huge amount of money to build, the military order from the headquarters came down, appointing him as the major general counselor of the Jiashan frontline headquarters to assist Lieutenant General Guo in charge of logistics supplies. Although his authority was not large, he was involved in the distribution of baggage.
No matter which army he went to for supplies, no one dared to ignore him.
There is no need to go to the front line to work hard, which is exactly what Commissioner Wang wants, so he is naturally happy when he leaves.
After sending away what should be sent and what should not be sent away, Tang Dao immediately held the first military meeting of the independent battalion in the underground bunker in the station that could hide an infantry company.
Those who are qualified to participate in the military meeting include Lei Xiong, the former deputy battalion commander of the Four-Hing Battalion, Leng Feng, the captain of the Four-Hing Battalion, Li Jiujin, the lieutenant of the Four-Hing Battalion, Cheng Tietshou, the lieutenant of the Four-Hing Battalion, Gu Xishui, the second lieutenant of the Sixing Battalion, and the former deputy battalion commander of the Songjiang Garrison Battalion.
Guo Shouzhi, former deputy battalion commander of the Songjiang Guard Battalion Zhuang Shisan, former commander of the fire support company of the Songjiang Guard Battalion Pang Dahai, former deputy commander of the second company of the Songjiang Guard Battalion Qian Dazhu, former platoon leader of the cavalry battalion of the 67th Army Special Agent Regiment Lu Sanjiang, former
Zhao Chengxi, commander of the first company of the second battalion of the Songjiang Security Regiment, and Zhu Heicheng, former commander of the first company of the third battalion of the Songjiang Security Regiment.
Leng Feng was promoted to major again after this battle. Cheng Tieshou and Pang Panghai were both promoted from lieutenant to captain after this battle, and were considered senior officers in the independent battalion. Qian Dazhu, Lu Sanjiang, Gu
The three people from Xi Shui were simply top soldiers half a month ago, and now they have only been promoted to lieutenant and second lieutenant. Are they qualified to participate in this highest-level military meeting of the independent battalion?
The three of them were personally named by Tang Dao to attend the meeting. Obviously, these three will definitely be vigorously promoted and reused by Tang Dao. This was tacitly understood by the officers who participated in the meeting and those who did not.
The two people in the security battalion may be more representatives of the remnants of the Songjiang Security Regiment. After all, they have nearly 500 people, accounting for almost half of the officers and soldiers of the independent battalion currently stationed there.
Naturally, there was no table in the underground bunker. Half an hour ago, Erya, Xia Dayu, and several soldiers from the guard battalion built a simple long table with bullet boxes. The chairs were naturally made of bullet boxes.
Although it is a bit crude, it still has the flavor of a battlefield.
The officers sat down one after another, but they were somewhat distinct. Lei Xiong and several officers from the former Sixing Battalion sat on the left side of the 'long table', while Guo Shouzhi and Zhuang Shisan sat on the right with officers from the former Guard Battalion.
On the other side, the company commanders of the two security groups thought for a while, but they sat on the side of the guard camp. It was probably because of the presence of an old acquaintance, Master Zhuang, that there was still a sense of intimacy when meeting acquaintances.
Lu Sanjiang took a look and was obviously a little confused. He was about to sit in the corner, but Gu Xishui waved him to sit next to him. Lu Sanjiang strode over and sat at the Sihangying side.
Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes.
Apparently, there are also newly formed independent battalions.
This way of sitting represents several forces in the independent battalion that is about to be established, including the Four Elements Battalion represented by Lei Xiong, the guard battalion represented by Guo and Zhuang, the remnants of the security group, and the single Lu Sanjiang.
A cavalry platoon leader who has yet to find a sense of belonging when fighting alone.
Tang Dao, who was sitting alone at the top of the long table, watched with cold eyes. Of course he understood everything in his heart, but he didn't say anything.
This phenomenon exists everywhere. Everyone will subconsciously stick to the people they are familiar with and close to. This is the most normal human nature. And what he has to do is how to knead everyone here together in the shortest time.
Form a whole, a whole composed of original small groups, instead of busy breaking up the original small groups.
That would take enough time, but now, he doesn't have time.
"Everyone, due to changes in the war situation, our department has now been ordered to establish an independent battalion directly under the 43rd Army. If you have any ideas, you can put them forward before I come up with the reorganization plan. Don't wait for me to come up with the reorganization plan and then put forward your opinions. I
But we don’t have that much time to revise and revise to satisfy everyone, and the Japanese army won’t be waiting anywhere all the time. The time left for us is only one day at most.” Tang Dao got straight to the point.
Everyone was silent.
Everyone sat upright, staring intently at the simple tabletop covered with bullet boxes in front of them, as if they could see the yellow-orange bullets in the bullet boxes through it.
That thing is a favorite item for soldiers on the battlefield, but it should never be used at a conference.
"What's the matter? Everyone on the battlefield is usually quite capable of talking to each other! Are you going to turn into a sullen gourd in a meeting?" Tang Dao knocked on the bullet box in front of him. "It seems that I have to invite everyone!
"
Li Jiujin pointed his eyes and stared at the bullet box seriously as if he could see a flower in it: "Come on, Li Jiujin, tell me! What do you think we should do with this reorganization!"
Li Jijin shrank his neck, stood up, and said with a grimace: "Sir, there are Deputy Battalion Commander Guo, Deputy Battalion Commander Zhuang and the others here! Then it's my turn as a small platoon leader to speak! Oh, no, no
A month ago, I was just a squad leader! Please forgive me!"
That pitiful look looked like a scumbag who was asked questions by the teacher in class.
"Damn it, this old veteran is really not a good bird. You are so evasive and don't want to talk about it. It's embarrassing to mention me! Why don't you mention Lieutenant Colonel Lei, the first adjutant in the order!" Zhuang 'Xueba'
He glanced sideways at Li Jiujin, who had a bitter look on his face, and wanted to spit the old soldier's grease on his face.
Reorganization, of course, requires re-appointment of military positions, and it is very likely that various departments will be disrupted and reorganized. The most terrible thing is that Tang Dao has just said that he will only be given one day during the day. This is a difficult problem for everyone here.
Of course, no one wants to take the initiative to be the villain.
But veteran Youzi took the initiative to call his name. Guo and Zhuang couldn't pretend they didn't hear it. After looking at each other, Guo Shouzhi took the initiative with some helplessness: "Sir, in my opinion, if you want me to be independent,
In order for the battalion to form combat effectiveness as quickly as possible, it is better to retain the original company structure of the guard battalion temporarily, and the personnel losses caused by the battle will be made up by personnel transferred from the security group.
In addition, the various units of the Sixing Battalion were disrupted and filled into the remaining members of the merged security regiment. The veteran brothers of the Sixing Battalion served as squad leaders of the security regiment. Some outstanding ones could be promoted to deputy platoon leaders. All platoon leaders and company commanders at the grassroots level were all composed of the Sixing Battalion.
Officers serve as officers, while the original officers of the security corps, except for a few outstanding ones, will be demoted in their original positions by half a rank and become deputies, while their military ranks will remain unchanged."
As soon as these words came out, there was no change in the faces of Lei Xiong and others, but the expressions of the two security regiment commanders were extremely ugly.
The combat effectiveness of the security regiment is not as good as that of these regular troops. The veterans of the Sixing Battalion who survived the bloody battle in Songhu are trustworthy commanders. They do not deny these two points and are willing to accept such reorganization. However, they can
All their existing officers have been demoted, which is unacceptable.
Could it be that all their achievements in guarding Songjiang and guarding the Jiashan defense line were wiped out in this way?
This is actually the most normal psychology of human beings. Whether you can be promoted or demoted does not mean that your authority is large or small, but it is also difficult to live up to your reputation!
Perhaps except for these two people, the reorganization plan proposed by Guo Shouzhi is a plan that everyone else here thinks is feasible.
The original three infantry companies and fire support companies of the garrison battalion continue to be retained. Although there are new transferred personnel, the overall familiarity is maintained enough that they can be directly put into the battlefield without having to spend any effort to get familiar with each other.
Fighting requires more than just a group of people with guns, it also requires sufficient tacit understanding and trust.
As for the Sihang Battalion, although the overall organizational structure was completely disrupted, everyone from soldiers to officers served as squad and platoon-level commanders, and the basic skeleton was still them. In a sense, the Sihang Battalion was only expanded five or six times.
Familiar comrades are still around, so there is no big feeling of strangeness.
Lei Xiong, who had always been unruly, nodded slightly without looking at it, which was regarded as recognition of Guo Shouzhi's suggestion.
"Okay! This is a good suggestion. I've written it down." Tang Dao nodded. "What are other people's opinions?"
"Sir, after this battle, our army's inventory and transportation of captured combat materials were extremely chaotic and disorderly. I suggest that a baggage force must be established!" Master Zhuang calmed down and said.
"Yeah!" Tang Dao nodded.
Perhaps after these two people spoke up, the officers stood up one after another to express their opinions.
There are opinions on the reorganization of the newly established independent battalion, as well as a summary of the problems exposed in the battle.
