Chapter 083: Consolidation of the Liaodong Defense Line
Time is passing little by little, and the originally chaotic situation in Liaodong has gradually stabilized the basic general trend because of the improvement of the construction of top-level power institutions.
Because of the strong leadership leader such as Zhao Zongwu, this also makes it impossible for the slightest problem to occur in Liaodong at this stage.
Of course, there are no big problems, but small and medium-sized problems that need to be solved have always existed.
For example, the defense line of the Lingbao group controlled by the army in the early stage belongs to the strategic place, although at this stage Liaodong has been fully recovered, and it also has the peripheral defense line such as the border wall of Liaodong, but this does not mean that the defense line of the Lingbao group that has been prepared and perfected can be simply and rudely demolished.
In this way, this is not only a waste of resources, but also irresponsible for the security of Liaodong.
But one thing that needs to be made clear is that although these places are very important, the responsibility of the local garrison is shouldered by the local garrison, and the role of the Huaxia Army is to defeat foreign enemies when they invade!
After knowing this, Zhao Zongwu handed over all the local garrisons in Liaodong, including these already built defense lines of the Lingbao group, to the local garrison sub-divisions, and formed a relatively formed defense line garrison battalion according to actual needs.
After sorting out these fundamental problems, Zhao Zongwu put forward corresponding improvement measures for the existing problems on the border wall of eastern Liaodong.
For example, Guangning and Shenyang, the two important towns, the Liaohetao area sandwiched in the middle, although most of the existence in this area is Liaoze, that is, the swamp area we commonly refer to.
It is also because of this fundamental problem that the early Ming Dynasty made a big circle in the area when preparing to build the eastern border wall of Liaodong, although this will abandon all the Liaoze in the region, but it has also caused a great drag on the local garrison, so that many soldiers and horses are limited here.
Since it is to sort out the practical problems of the local garrisons in eastern Liaodong, it is necessary to smoothly solve this problem.
In order to better solve this fundamental problem, although there was a large range of swampy areas in the area, Zhao Zongwu still ordered Yousi to immediately start preparing for the construction of the border wall from Quang Ninh to Changshan, which greatly shortened the border wall of Liaodong to the foreign town.
At the same time as preparing for the construction of the border wall of the area, all the grassland tribes living here were relocated.
After the side wall of the area is completely prepared, the original Liaodong side wall placed in it will be demolished, and at the same time, the swamp problem in the area will be treated, and the corresponding arrangements will be made for the development of the people's livelihood in the area.
Through reasonable planning and deployment, Zhao Zongwu wants to further improve the border wall of Liaodong, and use a solid border wall defense belt to ensure the absolute security required for the internal development of Liaodong, and give the people of Liaodong the peace of mind they deserve!
"During this period of time, Ben Hou has been thinking about the relevant placement of Liaodong's subordinate to the Nine Legions, and after corresponding improvements, Ben Hou has formulated this scheduling arrangement, and you can put forward corresponding opinions or indirect after reading it."
After solving the fundamental problem of the local garrison in eastern Liaodong, Zhao Zongwu summoned Chen Qiyu, director of the General Staff Department, Fan Tianxiong, director of the Xuanfu Department, Zu Dashou, director of the War Readiness Department, and Zhao Shujiao, deputy director of the Army Division, to discuss the actual deployment of the nine army corps.
Looking at the relevant scheduling and deployment handed over by their own Hou Ye, Chen Qiyu and the others also thought about it according to the existing situation in Liaodong, not to mention, they really found the basic problem.
Fan Tianxiong first said: "Hou Ye, according to the straight-line distance, Fushun and Yahu Pass are not more than 100 miles, although the geographical location of Fushun Pass is more important, but I feel that this is not enough to deliberately transfer a corps to garrison Fushun, after all, the strength of our Chinese Army, after this campaign to recover Liaodong, has been fully proven!" ”
Listening to what Fan Tianxiong said, Zhao Zongwu squinted his eyes slightly, looked at the war sand table in front of him, thought about it seriously, deduced the relevant measures in his mind, and said after a long time: "Bo Dao is right, this point Benhou is indeed wrong, just send a legion to garrison the Yahu Pass, you can absolutely guarantee the self-security of the region!" ”
Because they were thinking about the problem from the perspective of war, the issues discussed by Zhao Zongwu and others were deduced according to the possibility of a war coming.
Then Fan Tianxiong's question was told, and Chen Qiyu also told his own opinions: "There is also Hou Ye, Gaizhou Wei does not need to garrison a legion, although this legion has the role of suppressing the core area of the Liaodong Peninsula, but Gaizhou is located in the coastal area, and it is enough to have a navy stationed here, plus the local garrison army has a role in maintaining stability in this place, and it is more appropriate for the legion of the department to be stationed in Jinzhou in the south."
Although Jinzhou already has a navy here, and there is a perfect local garrison, but Jinzhou is the real core of our Liaodong development after all, if there are Japanese and Hongyi blitzkrieg Jinzhou, but our army does not have a strong mobile army to suppress it, I am afraid ......."
At the beginning of the discussion, Fan Tianxiong and Chen Qiyu opened the discussion, and Zhao Zongwu and they had a detailed discussion on this deployment arrangement, and at the same time, after many collisions, they finally finalized the final location of the Nine Legions.
The 1st Army Corps, the headquarters of Mangui, was stationed in Shenyang.
The 2nd Army Corps, the headquarters of Zu Dabi, was stationed in Liaoxi.
The 3rd Army Corps, the headquarters of Mao Wenlong, was stationed on the peninsula.
The 4th Army Corps, the headquarters of Liu Xingzuo, was stationed in Pingwu.
The 5th Army Corps, Ma Shilong's headquarters, was stationed in Anle.
The 6th Army Corps, Li Pei's Division, was stationed at Shanhaiguan.
The 7th Army Corps, Wang Shiqin's headquarters, stationed in Xinmin.
The 8th Army Corps, the headquarters of Yu Shiwei, was stationed at Yahu Pass.
The 9th Army Corps, the headquarters of Yu Shilu, was stationed in Jinzhou.
The above-mentioned nine legions have only two powers and responsibilities: prepare for war, fight!
During the period of the war, the Ninth Army Corps should strictly follow the relevant arrangements issued by the Military Academy to carry out corresponding training and rotation training arrangements.
At the same time, according to Zhao Zongwu, from now on, the soldiers of the Nine Legions are no longer responsible for other matters except training and fighting, and the Nine Legions are supported by Yulu, Zhao Zongwu wants to make the soldiers of the Nine Legions become full-time soldiers in the real sense, if they can do this, then they will be the first batch of professional soldiers in the real sense of this era!
As a result, this also placed a heavier burden on the local garrisons.
The local garrison not only needs to stabilize the area, but also needs to supply the elite men needed by the various regiments every year, and during this period, they also need to carry out military cantonment.
Because there are a lot of troops that need to be supported in Liaodong, if you simply rely on Liaodong, this is very difficult in itself, so how to make the local garrison self-sufficient is the foundation to ensure that the Liaodong army can be consolidated for a long time.
Although the burden is heavy, it further standardizes the army building in Liaodong, which is of great significance!
