The strongest militia

After a few rounds of meetings with the Jin army led by Yi Fu Zuoyi, Deng Chenggong sent these happy and satisfied Jin army generals out of the province, and continued to devote his energy to the post-war period The matter of rebuilding the base area will come up.

Overall, Deng Chenggong felt quite satisfied with the contact with the Jin army this time. Even after this anti-sweep, a large number of Japanese-style equipment confiscated by the militia column was sold at a high price to the lack of weapons expansion after the loss of the Taiyuan arsenal. Troops of the Jin Army.

And a group of veteran technicians with arsenal experience in the Jin army will soon arrive at the base of the militia column and work in the newly expanded arsenal of the militia column. The arrival of these old skills Deng Chenggong also gave the Jin army a certain amount of compensation.This is a good thing for both parties. Deng Chenggong also believes that as long as Yan Laoxi is not stupid, he should not refuse this good thing for both parties.

After sending away the representatives of the Jin army, Deng Chenggong made almost the arrangements for the post-war reconstruction and handed it over to Xu Mingyuan, the logistics minister, to be responsible for the specific implementation.As for him, he called a meeting of Hu Guangzong and several main division commanders of the column, and held a post-war military meeting of the militia column.

Regarding the general title given by Chairman Jiang who knocked the door this time, Deng Chenggong thought about it and accepted it happily.How to say, this is also a military rank recognized by the government. As for the military ranks of the main military generals of the following columns, it is time to raise them.More importantly, after this heavy raid by the Japanese army, many troops in the base area have actual combat experience.

Deng Chenggong felt that it would be a waste of fighting power if such small brigades and regiments were used to fight guerrillas against the devils.For this reason, he plans to expand the infantry units of three division-level units on the basis of the First Minor Division.

Looking at the giants of the militia column in the conference room, Deng Chenggong sighed and said: "Although we won the final victory in this anti-sweeping campaign, the loss of the base area and the casualties of the militia troops still make me feel that it is necessary Then form some main fist forces with division-level organization.

Otherwise, in the future, we will only have the ability to defend in the face of the attack of the little devil's division-level troops.First of all, I would like to thank Brother Hu for having had a hard time during this time. If you hadn't led the troops to hold back the heavy soldiers who swept up the little devils in the base area, my campaign in Beiping would not have progressed so smoothly. "

Hu Guangzong smiled and said: "Commander, you are being polite. I just fulfilled my due responsibilities. I can't defeat the little devil alone in this war. This is the result of everyone's joint efforts. Thank you, Commander, or Thanks for everything!"

Seeing Hu Guangzong's joke, Deng Chenggong smiled and said, "Okay, then I won't be polite. Next, I will announce a few plans. Everyone is a general of the column, and I will also calculate whether these plans are feasible."

Several plans mean that the commander is about to make another big move!

Sure enough, after seeing everyone's attention focused on his folder, Deng Chenggong opened the folder and said: "First of all, the first plan is to expand the first militia division to three main divisions. In order to In the future, when we face the siege of the little devil division, we have the ability to carry out counterattack operations in the situation.

The expansion units I selected were Qing County Militia Brigade, Xuanhua Militia Brigade, and Qian'an Militia Brigade.In principle, the former brigade commanders of various ministries were promoted to major general-level division commanders, temporarily acting as division commanders of the second, third and fourth divisions of the People's Republic of China.The composition of the troops mainly selects the backbone of brigades and regiments who have participated in the anti-sweeping campaign for expansion.

The area where the three militia brigades were located was heavily defended by the Japanese army. Placing a division-level troop there would better deter the little devils and prevent them from easily entering the base area to make trouble.Do you think this plan is feasible? "

As the deputy commander, Hu Guangzong naturally liked the expansion of three main divisions at once, but he said with some concern: "Commander, I have no objection to expanding these three militia brigades into the main division, but with our current division level For equipment preparation, do you have enough funds and equipment to equip the three new main divisions?"

Deng Chenggong smiled and said: "Brother Hu, please don't worry. Although our anti-mopping up losses are not small, the losses of the little devils are greater than ours. Although the equipment of the three newly created main divisions cannot reach the level of the civilian population at once. The standard of a division, but the equipment to form three main divisions is still slightly left.

The equipment of the Qing County Militia Brigade should not be a problem based on the inventory of the base. The equipment of the Qian'an Militia Brigade, I had already asked the Northeast Division to bring a part of it last time.Expansion should not be a problem. Only the Xuanhua Militia Brigade, when forming an artillery regiment directly under the division headquarters, may have some problems with large-caliber howitzers.

But squeezing out about ten 105-caliber howitzers is not a problem with our current capabilities.When the machinery and equipment I bought from other countries in Peiping arrive, and with the addition of some old technicians from the Taiyuan Arsenal, it should not be a problem to produce the 150-caliber howitzer by myself.Therefore, first put up the shelf of the division-level troops. We would rather wait for equipment than for equipment to wait for others. "

Hearing that the arsenal of the militia column will be able to produce 150-caliber howitzers by itself in the near future, the generals of the columns present undoubtedly smiled.These days, there are large-caliber howitzers in battle, so it is full of confidence!

With this confidence, the plan to expand the three main divisions was naturally implemented quickly. Then Deng Chenggong said: "I believe you all know that in Sanhe our department has incorporated Hu Hao's department from the former Northeast Brigade. Currently they are Relying on the Qian'an area, it has begun to advance into the northeast to fight.

In view of the increasingly important strategic position in the direction of Qian'an, I think that Brother Hu will be the commander of the Northeast Army Division of the column.Take command of the specific combat tasks entering the Northeast, and at the same time manage the military combat readiness of the Northeast Military Division.And raise the rank of major general to lieutenant general, do you agree with this? "

Letting Hu Guangzong out is undoubtedly a question worth considering, but after such a long time of getting along and communicating.Deng Chenggong believed that Hu Guangzong should understand that it would be more enjoyable to follow himself or follow the former senior officials or other political parties.

Sure enough, after the order was issued, Hu Guangzong seemed extremely excited and filled with emotion, finally converging into one sentence, choked up and said: "Commander, thank you!"

Stopping Hu Guangzong's excitement, Deng Chenggong smiled and said: "I know it's a waste to put my brother here, but you also know that the southern base area is our center of gravity. I am a commander who can't bear loneliness. It is always up to Big Brother Hu to control the direction, which is why our column is so brilliant today. Let Big Brother Hu sit in Qian'an this time, the responsibility is heavy, and I hope that Big Brother will not feel that he has successfully squeezed you!"

Regarding this kind of oppression, Hu Guangzong, who had been looking forward to returning to the Northeast, grinned and said: "It's okay, as long as you can go back to the Northeast to fight the little devils, the commander can oppress me!"

In a word, the generals present were all smiling. If other military generals saw this harmonious atmosphere, they would probably also lament the unity of the militia columns.

'In view of the fact that Brother Hu will be the commander of the Northeast Army Division, the Xuanhua area also needs someone to take command, and my next plan is to send the column cavalry division there to see if there is any chance to enter the Inner Mongolia area to fight small Devil.

It is close to the northwest, and the folk customs are relatively strong. The Xuanhua militia division alone estimates that its ability is slightly insufficient. The cavalry division should be able to play a certain role in coordinating and suppressing in the past.The commander of the Northwest Military Division, I decided to be the chief of staff of the column Liu Guang, and the rank was also promoted to lieutenant general.Brother Liu should have no problem with this point? '

From a regiment-level chief of staff step by step to today's side, Liu Guang is undoubtedly lucky.Although he couldn't follow Hu Guangzong to fight behind enemy lines in the northeast, but he could become the commander of the Northwest Military Division of the militia column, Liu Guang naturally wouldn't say much.After giving a formal military salute to Deng Chenggong, he sat down happily.

Next, the commander of the Southwest Military Division will be concurrently held by Deng Chenggong.In principle, Hu Guangzong and Liu Guang have great decision-making power in the Northeast and Northwest military divisions.However, in order to create a situation of separatism, Deng successfully implemented the committee system in these two military divisions.Local division-level military commanders, as well as military sub-district directors, have voting rights.

This is also to prevent Hu Guangzong and Liu Guang from being co-opted or rebellious.Of course, Deng Chenggong didn't say anything about the inner meaning, and Hu Guangzong and Liu Guang would never refuse.After all, it's one thing to know something clearly, but it's another thing to say it too bluntly.

This military reorganization has further improved the main combat capability of the militia column, and the main infantry division has expanded from one to five.Of course, the other main division is the Northeast Militia Division, which is preparing to enter the northeast to fight behind enemy lines.On the basis of the original basis, the Artillery Division has expanded two artillery brigades, and will be directly stationed in the two military divisions in the northwest and northeast for cooperative operations.

The same is true for the armored division, which will expand two more motorized infantry brigades on the original basis.Just considering that tanks and armored vehicles are currently slightly insufficient, the two newly expanded motorized infantry brigades still need more training, and if they are captured later, they will be built one after another.

Because the cavalry division needs to be transferred to the Northwest Military Division to fight, the Southwest Military Division retains the organizational system of a cavalry brigade.At that time, the Northeast Army Division will be formed by the commander Hu Guangzong himself. Of course, the organizational system given is also a cavalry brigade.Based on this calculation, the front-line main force of the militia column reached eight divisions, and the number exceeded 20.

This does not include the 50 main brigades that were renegotiated at this round of military expansion conferences to increase combat capabilities and weapons.Watching the end of the final military expansion meeting, the regular combat troops of the militia columns have exceeded [-].The number of second-line troops and reserve militiamen equipped with the main force to fight has reached nearly one million.

As a result, the overall strength of the militia has far surpassed that of the Japanese garrison in North China.But it is one thing to have troops. Deng Chenggong still needs to wait for a suitable opportunity if he wants to recover the entire North China.Because, he knew very well that this time would not be too long, and he would need a period of time to consume the experience and opportunities brought to the militia column by this anti-sweeping campaign.
