Chapter 77: new troops

Time flies, and after Wang Guorui ordered Taiwan to implement military control, the administrative efficiency of the entire Taiwan has increased by more than ten times. Usually those officials who cheated and cheated did not dare to do this, because a group of soldiers supervised them, so they would not have the guts to cheat and cheat. If anyone dares to steal, **** and play tricks, he will be beaten violently, and he will be punished directly for the crime of adultery with Japanese pirates. And they are all working very hard now, even "actively" working overtime. And Wang Guorui also lamented that if these grandsons can maintain such a state, then China will be strong and become the world's most powerful country just around the corner! It's a pity that Wang Guorui also knows that it's impossible. People are lazy, and it will definitely not work if there is no supervision or no danger.

"Master Wang, we have already moved most of the people to the Tainan area, and then we can safely fight the Japanese army in Taipei without harming the people. So we can rest assured that as long as we If you are ready, then everything will be no problem," Zheng Hong said.

"Okay, you have worked hard these days, I will definitely comfort you!" Wang Guorui said.

Zheng Hong blushed, obviously knowing what Wang Guorui meant by "comfort".

"Come on, let's go to the new army!" Wang Guorui said.

Wang Guorui brought Zheng Hong to the new unit, which is the Second Division. Wang Guorui also started to build the second division long before the war with the Japanese army, hoping to organize the second division as soon as possible to supplement the shortage of troops on his side. And the second division has just finished training, and the third and fourth divisions are also starting to train, with red police soldiers serving as grassroots officers, so more and more people have been trained.

"Master Wang, we have now trained the second division. The organization of the second division is almost the same as that of the first division. It also has three infantry regiments and one artillery regiment. This way our strength is equivalent to more doubled, and the pressure to fight against the Japanese army will be much smaller," Hu Wei said.

Wang Guorui immediately said: "Neither the third division nor the fourth division can be taken lightly, and the training must be completed as soon as possible with quality and quantity. This time the Japanese army has more than 100,000 people to attack!"

Of course, Wang Guorui knew that the Japanese army would have more than 100,000 people to attack. According to outside sources, the Japanese army sent a total of six divisions from the first to the sixth to fight in Taiwan, and Taiwan recruited six more divisions. The division is used to defend the country. And many people from the first to sixth divisions participated in the Sino-Japanese War. And their number is about 160,000. If the Japanese army is more crazy, it will be 200,000 with some auxiliary troops. And the 200,000 army is a battle of one battle, and I am afraid that it must be won this time.

If there are only two divisions now, it is not enough to have about 30,000 people. Compared with the 200,000 Japanese army, it is still much less. Therefore, we must train four divisions as soon as possible, so that we can make ourselves more powerful and have 60,000 people. Sixty thousand people like this is not without advantages for the Japanese army, because the firepower on their own side is very strong. Although the number of divisions on my side is much smaller than that of a division of the Japanese army, the firepower on my side is much stronger than that of the Japanese army. In this way, in terms of overall strength, the own side still has the advantage, so there is no need to worry too much about the disadvantage in numbers.

"Husband, who do you plan to choose as the commander of the second division this time?" Zheng Hong asked.

Zheng Hong was in charge of the military administration, so he had to take the initiative to ask Wang Guorui who he wanted to be the commander of the second division. Although Zheng Hong was able to decide the appointment of officers below the battalion level, Wang Guorui had to personally decide the appointment of officers above the regiment level. And the officer of the second division is definitely one of the important positions. It must be appointed by Wang Guorui himself.

"The second division, let Chen Liyan be in charge, and the original artillery regiment's position will be taken over by Lu Biao, the deputy head of the artillery regiment." Wang Guorui said.

Wang Guorui planned to let Chen Liyan, the head of the artillery regiment, be the commander of the second division, because Chen Liyan had trained artillery for a long time, and he was also an old subordinate. Now that there is a second division, he can be appointed as the commander of the second division. In addition, although Chen Liyan came with Hu Wei, he was not very familiar with Hu Wei. At that time, Hu Wei did not choose too many cronies for the future of the army. Just choice.

Wang Guorui appointed him as the commander of the second division. It is hoped that he can get acquainted with synthetic warfare, instead of continuing to work in the position of artillery, a technical arm. After all, artillery is a technical branch. Once you are in charge of artillery all year round, your vision as an officer will be much smaller. Therefore, it is necessary to serve in a synthetic force. Only in this way can we enrich our experience and be familiar with the elements of contract operations of various arms, so that we can have a better development prospect. As for the need to expand the army in the future, it will naturally be able to rise better.

"Thank you, Mr. Wang, for your cultivation. I will definitely manage this second division well, and kill the enemy for Mr. Wang!" Chen Liyan said.

"As for the third and fourth divisions in the future, you don't have to worry. I have already planned to let Zhao Xi be in charge of the third division. Zhao Xi is a rare talent, and the third regiment he led during this period has done well. , so I plan to put him in charge of a division directly. And the next fourth division will be selected from the remaining officers, and whoever is more capable, then you can all be the commander of the fourth division." Wang Guo Ray said.

Zhao Xi immediately said: "Thank you for your cultivation!"

And the other officers were also happy for a while, because the fourth division was reserved for them to compete, so they must make efforts to train the troops quickly and restore their combat effectiveness as soon as possible. As long as you do well, you can become the commander of the fourth division. According to Wang Guorui's establishment, a division ranging from combat troops to various service support troops has about 15,000 people, which is equivalent to the ancient ten thousand commander. If it was under the official position system of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, it would be at least the second-rank general soldier. Even, according to the combat effectiveness of weapons and soldiers, it would not be exchanged for a first-rank admiral in the Qing Dynasty. Although this rank is not recognized by people in the Qing Dynasty, the most important thing for an officer is not the rank, but the combat effectiveness of the soldiers under him. If the Manchu Qing used an admiral to recruit them, Wang Guorui was sure that they would not do it. After all, the quality of the soldiers under him was not at the same level. How could they be willing!

As for the first division, Wang Guorui didn't say who would be in charge. That's because Wang Guorui had always been in charge of the first division. This first division could be said to be Wang Guorui's direct unit, which was very important. And Wang Guorui did not directly expand the original army, because direct expansion is a dangerous behavior of comparing prices. Because direct expansion is tantamount to directly expanding the original troops, so that the original officers will still lead. We must know that the direct expansion has not changed much the officer system of the original army, and the leadership is still those people. In fact, this is equivalent to expanding the strength of the subordinates, but the threat to the boss is much greater.

Wang Guorui did not expand directly from the first division into an army, but instead recruited officers and soldiers from the lower ranks as the backbone to form the second division, the third division and the fourth division. In fact, he hoped to eliminate the interference of the original officer system. The senior leadership of such a reorganized army will inevitably be reorganized and changed, and if the division commander is selected from the original head of the first division, he will inevitably accept a newly formed army, and his subordinates and leaders at the same level will also Everything has changed, so the ability to control the original leadership is a process of decline. This method of starting from scratch is much safer than direct expansion. Whether it is the leadership of the original army or the leadership of the newly formed army, it has to go through a change, which is very helpful for Wang Guorui to seize the army.

Don't think that Wang Guorui is defenseless against his subordinates. Wang Guorui has always believed that as long as the benefits are large enough~www.wuxiax.com~, the back plan is also possible. The reason for loyalty is that the price of betrayal is not enough, so we must think about how to make the red police soldiers form the grassroots officers in the army. And it is also necessary to form a system for generals to adjust their positions, so as to prevent their subordinates from becoming bigger. Now Wang Guorui can be controlled by the Red Police soldiers, what about after that? In the future, Wang Guorui established a country, and Wang Guorui left one day. The person who succeeded him might not be able to control the army. This would be a split for the country, and it would definitely not work. . Therefore, Wang Guorui must establish a rule for officer adjustment as soon as possible, so that he can truly rest easy.

Now that the Japanese army has not landed, it is entirely possible to take this opportunity to establish the rules, so that the new officers will have time to adjust. If we wait for the second batch of Japanese troops to land on a large scale, I am afraid that it will really be impossible to adjust. Changing commanders in battle has been a taboo for military strategists since ancient times. So taking advantage of the current temporary peace, quickly adjust their positions and promote these guys along the way, so that they can feel that they have been promoted, and it can also prevent the army under them from being dominated by one family.

"Okay, now everyone goes back to work step by step and waits for the Japanese army to land on Taiwan again. This time is our real test, not an ordinary thing! This time the Japanese army has hundreds of thousands of people. The Japanese army, then we can truly keep Taiwan." (To be continued.) xh118
