Chapter 1445: Another Expedition

Of course, the reorganization could not be carried out so easily and quickly, but Wang Yan cut the Gordian knot and suppressed the unstable and disunited ideas of Luo Youlun and others.

The reorganization process must take into full consideration the combat effectiveness of the team. What determines the combat effectiveness of the team is the veterans who stay together.

At the same time, as the team expands and the number of officer positions increases, we must also take into account the contributions of our old brothers and arrange them in appropriate positions.

At present, the arrangements are very general. We will promote the players first, and then have them run in during the training for a period of time. Then we can make targeted adjustments.

As for the new officers, Wang Yan also gave them a guarantee that they would be demoted to a lower level first and then promoted as they performed meritorious service in the future. Because they had no military achievements at the moment, while the old brothers under Wang Yan were all very capable.

However, Wang Yan did not delay much, because he had to march to transport weapons, equipment and other supplies, Wang Yan marched directly as he did during a war and carried out high-intensity training.

The abilities of some people were already revealed during the march.

Because except for a small number of officers, all the new recruits are recruits, and the officers are also new graduates from various training courses and do not have enough experience.

Even the experienced old brothers under Wang Yan were in charge of so many people for the first time. In addition, all his subordinates were new recruits and they simply couldn't figure out what to do.

Some fell behind while walking, some got lost after going to the toilet in the woods and couldn't find their way back, some new recruits started fighting because they didn't like each other, some new recruits and old recruits didn't like each other, some new recruits were beaten up by old recruits unilaterally, some lost their guns, some lost their shoes...

There are so many messy things like this, the lower levels are in chaos and the middle levels are in a state of panic.

"Old brothers under Master Wang's command still need more experience." Luo Youlun followed Wang Yan and spoke boldly.

Wang Yan glanced at him and said, "Not many of my brothers can read. But it was these people who followed me all the way through Burma and were invincible. You are the chief of staff of the Fifth Army. Can you tell me about your achievements? You graduated from Whampoa Military Academy and are an educated person. Can you analyze for me why the National Army wants to recruit us again?"

Then the smile on Luo Yulun's face disappeared. He really had nothing to say...

"Lao Luo, don't be like a woman. If you don't want to leave, then work hard. You are being sarcastic here, which is useless."

Wang Yan ignored him and wandered back and forth in the team, talking to the soldiers with a smile. He was not in a hurry to make various adjustments, and he always gave his brothers time to adapt and room for improvement.

He made himself known to the new recruits and used his personal charm to leave a good impression on them in a very short time.

In fact, he doesn't need too much personal charm. After all, he has reached this point now, with so many people under him, he is already a big official. As long as the official is willing to smile at the people under him, these people will think that this official is okay. Even if others say that he is not okay, he will doubt it.

If you can get along well with everyone and have fun with them, you will have already gained a certain degree of loyalty.

If we fight a few more beautiful battles, everyone lives and dies together, and then do a good job of post-processing, then anyone who dares to say that this official is not good or this person is not good will be put to guns.

In this way, we went all the way to the airport to pick up weapons, equipment and supplies.

They were all transported to India through various channels, and then sent from India to here, taking many detours.

Part of this batch of supplies was used to aid the country, and part was used to support the battle in India and Burma. It was divided into two parts, one part to supply the British and American troops, and the other part to supply the expeditionary force.

Now that Wang Yan’s army has risen strongly, some supplies have been drawn from all aspects.

Of course, other parts are dissatisfied, but this dissatisfaction has not yet been expressed because Wang Yan is too good at fighting. The specific manifestation will have to wait until Wang Yan truly leads his brothers to fight against the army.

If there are still good results, then there will naturally be no dissatisfaction. Otherwise, there will certainly be dissatisfaction.

But for Wang Yan, whether he can fight a good battle or not, whether others are satisfied or not, he doesn't care. As I said, the soldiers are in his hands, he is a rebel! If he gets angry, he will just give up and do whatever he wants.

This round trip to collect supplies gave the new recruits and veterans time to get to know each other. Wang Yan also initially established his prestige. At least all the soldiers knew his number.

Fortunately, although the journey back and forth was chaotic and troublesome, when we finally returned to the base to count the number of people, there was finally no one missing.

This made Wang Yan very happy. The fact that no one got lost showed that the discipline of the entire team had been initially established. When acting collectively, they followed the rules. Officers at all levels also fulfilled their most basic duties, which was a good thing.

Wang Yan struck while the iron was hot and continued to lead them on the march, crossing mountains, rivers and forests to train their leg strength. At the same time, he also kept giving them orders during the movement to improve the coordination between units at all levels and the rapid transmission of information.

At the same time, they also began to screen the team, select outstanding recruits, and form a reconnaissance battalion, led by former veteran scouts, to expand and extend the reach of the troops.

Every now and then, he would organize officers at all levels to come to him for training. From deputy company commander to regimental level, Wang Yan would teach them.

Luo Youlun and the staff officers sent over played a role. They were responsible for recording Wang Yan’s lecture content and then organizing it to form teaching materials.

Unfortunately, the war is intense now, and there is not enough time to promote literacy education in the army. However, we can organize it now and form our own officer training system. After all, there will definitely be a lot of wars in the future, and there will be some serious battles.

In the training of new recruits, there were no other subjects except marching. For live-fire shooting, each person was given 15 bullets and had to shoot at fixed targets to get a feel for shooting.

There really is not enough ammunition to supply this kind of training. The way to ensure combat effectiveness is to practice in actual combat. Only with the advice and teaching of veterans, as well as the death of their comrades, can they improve.

After going through battle after battle, he transformed from a rookie into a qualified veteran...

In the blink of an eye, a month has passed. After many marching trainings and the running-in period, the recruits have understood the discipline and rules, and the officers have adapted to their identities and can ensure the basic operation of their functions. This is enough.

So Wang Yan led the team, avoiding Japanese reconnaissance planes and marching towards the front line from the rear.

Telegrams urging Wang Yan to rush to the front line came one after another.

In the past, the expeditionary force and the Allied forces launched a fierce counterattack against the Japanese army. However, after two months, the front line was not only not pushed forward, but was pushed back by the Japanese army. In another two months, it is estimated that the Allied forces will be pushed back to western Myanmar and India.

People naturally recalled what had given them the opportunity to counterattack and what had led to their counterattack. Naturally, Wang Yan and his brothers, who were looked down upon by the people, became the focus of many people's thoughts.

Even Chiang Kai-shek sent a telegram to Wang Yan's troops, encouraging him and wishing him a successful start. He did not mention asking him to send troops as soon as possible, but the meaning of urging was evident between the lines.

"How is it, can you guarantee the combat effectiveness?" Luo Zhuoying asked worriedly. "No." Wang Yan shook his head, "You have fought in many battles, do you still need to ask such a thing? Combat effectiveness is not something that can be said, but something that can be achieved through actual fighting. Commander Luo, tell us your combat intentions."

Luo Zhuoying let out a long sigh: "Our current situation is very bad. The Japanese army is further suppressing us, shrinking our living space, and trying to drive us out of Burma and approach Yunnan Province. Yu Xiaoqing, your old acquaintance, lost a battle after you left, and the Japanese army had already tried to cross the river."

"Lao Luo, don't try to play that on me. I know where my wife is, and the women of my brothers are there too. You don't need to tell me that. Just tell me where you want to hit me."

Luo Zhuoying let out another long sigh, which was of course caused by Wang Yan's rude remarks.

He pointed to the map of Myanmar on the table and said, "At present, we still have three main positions. One is in the northwest corner, which is where we are. One is in the central part of western Myanmar where you fought before, and the other is close to the coast.

There is no strategy at this time, we can only create a new situation. The long-term goal is to fight all the way to Yangon, and the medium-term goal is to take Mandalay. If we want to take Mandalay, we naturally have to take the surrounding areas. "

Luo Zhuoying tapped the map, "Take down Mengmi, take Dadebeijin, take down Ruibao, and advance to Mandalay. I think this is a relatively ideal route. As long as you take action here, exert your previous abilities, contain the Japanese army, and attract the Japanese army to come to the rescue, the pressure elsewhere will naturally be reduced.

If you successfully capture Mengmi, and the Japanese know that it was you who captured it, then at least the situation on Yu Xiaoqing's side will be much better, because they know your ability to appear and disappear at will."

Wang Yan sneered: "Tell me about the situation of the Japanese army that you have learned about."

"There are 40,000 in the north, and 30,000 are watching this side. There are 20,000 in western Myanmar, and 10,000 near the coast. What we have detected so far is..." The chief of staff of the headquarters told Wang Yan about the current battlefield situation, the deployment of both sides, the areas recently fought for, the battles that broke out in various places, and all these in great detail.

This is the headquarters, and naturally it has the most detailed intelligence on the Burmese battlefield.

Wang Yan listened very carefully. Even after the staff officer had finished speaking, he still stared at the map and said nothing.

Luo Zhuoying couldn't help but asked, "Wang Yan, how are you going to fight?"

"Run and fight."

"run?"

Wang Yan glanced at him and said, "Since you can barely hold on, why should I go up there? Positional warfare means sacrificing lives. I can't withstand the Japanese planes, tanks, and artillery, so I naturally have to use my strengths to make sure they can't withstand it."

"So where are you going to hit?"

"I will first attack the retreat route of Nantianmen and cut off their supply. I will then attack Wei to save Zhao. If a battle breaks out over there, they will certainly draw troops from here to support them. This will make it easier for you.

You guys are relaxed here, and the Japanese army can't stand the pressure, so they will have to send more troops from western Myanmar. If they can't stand it anymore, they will have to continue to send troops from Thailand. In this way, the situation in the whole of Myanmar will be in motion, and there will be more opportunities. "

"I heard that a regiment of the Japanese army at Nantianmen dug holes in the mountains and started a tunnel war. The holes were connected to each other and they caught the enemy by surprise. With this geographical advantage, they can hold out for at least two months. What if the Japanese army doesn't come to rescue us?"

"They must be rescued." Wang Yan shook his head, "Because I am there! If they ignore me, according to my previous style, I might appear directly in Mandalay. Their rear defense is empty now, and they are relying on the local puppet troops. What combat effectiveness do those puppet troops have?

I don't even need to take Mandalay. As long as I destroy the roads there and cut off the Japanese army's transportation and supplies, then half of their troops in northern Myanmar will be destroyed and the entire front will collapse.

When I had 4,000 soldiers under my command, they beat me so hard that I dared not to split my forces and would often send troops to encircle and suppress me. Now I have 8,000 brothers under my command. Do you think they are afraid?
Okay, Lao Luo, stop asking. Just tell me if I can fight. When I have made a name for myself at Nantianmen, remember to report to Lao Jiang. I want more troops.

At five o'clock tomorrow morning, launch an attack on the western front to cover our breakout. That's it, let's go."

Wang Yan didn't say much, he just went out, caught up with the marching team, and disappeared into the jungle like the wind.

Luo Zhuoying looked at Wang Yan's hurriedly leaving figure, speechless.

The staff officer came up and asked, "Your Excellency, can he do it?"

"I don't know if he can do it, I just know we can't do it right now, our offense is weak..." Luo Zhuoying sighed, "He said it with such confidence, let's see what good situation he can create."

Wang Yan called three regiment commanders under his command, Fanla, Sila, and Ayi, each leading 2,000 troops, and told them the plan for breaking out.

Now that the army has expanded, the fighting method is no longer the same as before. In the past, there were 4,000 people on one route, but now there are 8,000 people on four routes. We must act separately and reunite abroad.

The requirements for officers are higher.

Wang Yan encouraged them: "Don't be afraid of failure, maintain our advantage. I still say that, don't fight hard, retreat if there is no chance. We all have radio stations and telegraph operators. At the agreed time, send a message to contact, and then I will tell you what to do.

Fighting is not a one-size-fits-all approach. We have always followed this point. Tens of thousands of Japanese soldiers have used their lives to prove that what we did was right. Have some confidence in yourself and don't put too much pressure on yourself. As long as more brothers survive, it will be a success. That's all I have to say. Go ahead."

The three of them saluted and left.

"Are you sure?" Luo Youlun asked uncertainly.

"Why don't you go with them?"

"Forget it, I'll just follow you."

Luo Youlun was afraid that Wang Yan would give his men a secret order to shoot him. This would not be difficult to do during a war.

Even if this was not the case, he was afraid that Wang Yan would catch him and kill him.

Now that the troops have been reorganized and the situation is hopeless, it would be more practical for him to follow Wang Yan.

He had never imagined that one day he would be killed so simply and brutally. He felt like a scholar meeting a soldier and unable to explain himself.

In fact, he didn't care, because Wang Yan was in control...

I would like to thank the good brothers who give rewards, vote for monthly tickets, recommend tickets, and read books silently for their strong support!
