Chapter 339: Preparation for Discipline

The theme of the meeting is two things, one is the selection and assignment of officers in the unit, and the other is the issue of assigning cadets to military cadets.

Excluding the divisional organs, the participants were basically the chiefs of staff of the regiments and the officers of the regimental headquarters, and almost all of the things they reported were related to the problem of desertion.

Before the division of troops, there were many deserters, and after the regiments allocated new recruits, the recruits came to the new environment, and another wave of deserters set off.

Zhang Wei listened to the reports of these chiefs of staff, and the regiments were able to catch deserters every week, and the total number of escapees in a month was about 200, and most of them were arrested except for a few people.

And for punishment, each regiment shot some soldiers who repeatedly failed to escape.

This thing is really difficult to solve, the regiments now lack grass-roots officers, there are not many veterans, and the number of new recruits far exceeds that of veterans and officers, which makes it easier to escape.

The recruits were all captured, and they didn't want to be soldiers, and the recruits who were active and thoughtful slipped away when they found an opportunity, but fortunately, the regiments were strict, and the nets were cast around, except for a few people, they were basically caught.

The problem of desertion is always a headache, but Zhang Wei's own teaching brigade did not have deserters, that is because each squadron of the teaching brigade has more than 80 veterans, and the new recruits are scattered and assigned.

There are more veterans in each squad than recruits, and if the recruits want to escape, let's see if they can escape the eyes of the squad leader and veterans.

There are two other ways to teach the brigade to prevent recruits from escaping, one is training, although the daily training is based on the principle of science and not harming soldiers, it can always be just right to exhaust people and have the strength to escape

Coupled with the big fish and big meat of the teaching brigade, slowly, the recruits' thoughts of escaping faded.

In this regard, the teaching brigade still gave Zhang Wei a long face, when Zhang Wei reported to Deputy Division Commander Liao that there was no record of desertion in the whole brigade, the eyes of the staff directors around him looked at Zhang Wei wrong.

Now there are no deserters in the combat units, and there are not a few of them.

Zhang Wei was able to do it, one because of all kinds of training and generous treatment, and the other reason, that is, the teaching brigade was small, and there were only more than 800 people in the whole brigade.

If Zhang Wei is allowed to be the commander of the regiment, in charge of more than 2,000 people, most of whom are still recruits, and there is a lack of infantry regiments with grassroots officers, he will probably have a headache for a month because of the problem of desertion.

After the meeting ended, Zhang Wei stayed, and Deputy Division Commander Liao still had something to say about the military cadet.

Deputy Division Commander Liao sent a telegram to Zhang Wei to replenish the new officers, and the telegram showed that there were more than 100 additional officers this time, all of whom were the latest graduates of military academies, and they were marching to Hunan from Sichuan and other places one after another.

"After this batch of cadets arrives, they will practice and discipline in your teaching brigade, and the military salaries and materials they need will be directly allocated by the division headquarters, and you can see how many things are needed," said Deputy Division Commander Liao.

There are more than 100 students in this group, and they can be organized into a company, and the amount of food and drink in each company is not small, and these people are military cadets, and they are to be paid military salaries, and they use more things than soldiers.

Due to the suddenness of these military cadets, Zhang Wei had not formulated a training plan at all, and now Deputy Division Commander Liao wants to give him supplies, of course he will not be stupid enough not to.

The training of cadets will definitely require the use of weapons, and the equipment stockpiled by the teaching brigade will certainly not meet the requirements of the more than 100 cadets, and it is necessary to receive more equipment for training, in addition to more ammunition and uniforms.

"Deputy division commander, this matter came in a hurry, the subordinates didn't have time to make a plan, according to the experience of the subordinates, the training cadets must be equipped, my brigade does not have so many weapons in stock, it is best to give some weapons and ammunition in the division."

Deputy Division Commander Liao agreed on the spot.

"Okay, there are more than 100 students in this batch, so they will be allocated to you according to the equipment of a formed company, and then allocated to a company of individual equipment and steel helmets, and they will be sent to you before the cadets arrive. You should formulate a training plan as soon as possible, these people are all going to be platoon commanders, and it is related to the combat effectiveness of this division, Zhang Wei, you must not slack off. ”

"Yes, my subordinates understand!"

Deputy Division Commander Liao agreed very happily, and sent a full set of equipment for a company, such as rifles and light machine guns of the new 22nd Division.

After Deputy Division Commander Liao and Zhang Wei finished talking about the important things, Zhang Wei took a ride again and hurried back to the teaching brigade in a hurry.

Teaching cadets is not a trivial matter, and he will have at most a month to reorganize and train the troops, and after a month, a little more than a month at most, these cadets will rush to the new 22 nd Division, and he must complete the retraining of the teaching brigade before they arrive.

According to their own plan, from the class coach to the battalion-level tactical coach, I am afraid it is too late, the only way is to compress the training time, compress the training time, but by no means compress the quality of training.

Zhang Wei temporarily decided to give up the battalion-level offensive and defensive instructors and complete the three-level tactical training of the squad and platoon company before the arrival of these cadets.

Battalion-level tactical offensive and defensive training is the most difficult to practice, and the higher the level, the more units need to be coordinated, and the more difficult the training becomes.

It is the safest and best way at present to concentrate on doing a good job of combat tactics training at the three levels of squads, platoons, and companies, and to wait until the training of military cadets is completed after the training of cadets is completed.

Before leaving, Zhang Wei took away a box of materials transferred by Deputy Division Commander Liao from the Personnel Department, which were the materials of this group of students from above.

The original materials were stored and recorded at the division headquarters, because Zhang Wei would soon have to face the training of these military cadets and formulate a plan for the training, so he specially asked someone to make a mimeographed copy and gave it to Zhang Wei.

It's full of information about this group of students, and it's rough and detailed in general, and you can't come with them until the students are in place.

Zhang Wei only looked at these simple files to understand the general situation.

This group of additional students are basically the newly graduated students of the 14th phase of Whampoa, judging from the files, they are indeed the first students who have just graduated, and they are absolutely "freshly baked." ”

At the same time, the brief file also recorded their general learning situation, the situation is indeed not optimistic, this group of students enlisted in the army at the end of the 26th year of the Republic of China, at that time, Zhang Wei was teaching the corps to reorganize the armament, and graduated in January of the 28th year of the Republic of China.

After careful calculation, the time that this batch of students spent in the military academy was only the entire year of the 27th year of the Republic of China, plus the months of 28 and 26 years, the combined time was less than a year and a half!

Zhang Wei can only see these in the profile in his hand, and the rest of the situation will have to wait for the students to come over to learn more about it.

Judging from the information recorded in the profile, the discipline of this group of students is probably not a small workload, and it is worse than Zhang Wei expected!
