Chapter 188 Strategy
Feng Tian gave enough time for these high-ranking officials to digest the above contents, and waved his hand when he felt that it was almost there, and the following immediately fell silent. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
"Ladies and gentlemen, as I mentioned earlier, the next three or four years will be a period of great development, and this period of time is very precious, and we must gain time to complete the modernization of the army.
At the division level, the army should strive to expand its organization to an army within three years, and in terms of the establishment of the army, one army will have two light infantry divisions and one heavy armored division under its jurisdiction.
At the same time, the army also had to set up a separate artillery unit, maintain a certain number of cavalry units, and form mountain brigades and airborne troops.
On the basis of the existing three regiments, the Air Force must complete the establishment of three divisions as soon as possible, and the training of new pilots is imminent.
The navy is not yet formed, and in the past we had a naval school, some institutions and a small number of naval officers and men, but we did not have warships.
There will be warships, and the key is that there must be qualified naval officers and men.
There are warships without qualified officers and men, and the navy is still a castle in the air.
Therefore, the training of naval personnel is a prerequisite.
The above content is the task to be completed in the coming period, and the newly established three headquarters will play a huge role.
Everyone is familiar with the candidates for the three general departments: Zhao Zhenfan, chief of the General Staff, Zhang Shusen, minister of general affairs, and Chang Jingwu, director of the General Logistics Department.
In the future, the army of the Beidi Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army will be very large, and the three general departments will each assume their own responsibilities and concentrate their energies on one task, and their efficiency will inevitably be improved so as to meet the needs of the army's modernization.
The General Political Affairs Department has set up the Army Management Committee and the Air Force Management Committee, among which Qu Guangshui, political commissar of the Army Management Committee, and Cao Minghui, political commissar of the Air Force Management Committee, are temporarily vacant in the Navy, and only one Navy preparatory group is retained.
Dear colleagues, work hard!
The strength of the Chinese nation is pinned on us! β
Feng Tian ended his speech with warm applause, and the Northland Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army will also enter a new stage of development.
This is the heavy content, the army is going to be upgraded again, and the division level will be upgraded to the army level. The division commanders who are working are about to become the commanders of the first army, can you not be excited?
These small regiment commanders and battalion commanders back then, since they followed the Fengtian War of Resistance, it has only been a short time, the regiment commander has been promoted to brigade commander, then to division commander, and the next step is to be promoted to army commander, this speed is too fast.
In addition to being excited, they also noticed the new terms that Feng Tian said about light stepper and heavy armorer.
What does Shenma mean?
I've never heard of this word, and everyone doesn't understand it.
Of course, it's certainly a good thing.
The meeting has ended, and the commanders at all levels present here have not left for a long time and are still discussing the contents of today's meeting.
Feng Tian, commander-in-chief of the three armed services, made a speech that was very informative and even more shocking, and all the participants were very excited.
Feng Tian and several high-ranking officials returned to the headquarters, and they had too many questions to answer.
Feng Yong fired first: "Commander Feng, you said that we have three to four years of development, is there no longer a war in the north, and the Japanese will no longer march?"
Feng Tian smiled and replied, "The war will continue, and the ambition of the Japanese to invade China has not changed.
However, today, when the Northland Anti-Japanese Volunteers wiped out the five first-class divisions of the Japanese army, do you think the Japanese army still has the courage to compete with the Northland Anti-Japanese Volunteers? β
You really haven't considered this question, but it's really possible for Feng Fengtian to say this.
The Japanese have been defeated in successive battles, and they have never taken advantage of the Northland Anti-Japanese Volunteers, and if they want to continue the war with the Northland Anti-Japanese Volunteers, the Japanese really need some guts.
The newly appointed Minister of State Zhang Shusen thought about it, and at least he was sure that in a short period of time, the Japanese army would not take the initiative to challenge the Northland Anti-Japanese Volunteers.
However, if the Japanese changed the goal of the attack, it became questionable how the northern army would respond.
Zhang Shusen was unsure, and asked Feng Tian: "If the Japanese army abandons our army and turns around to attack Hebei, will our army participate in the war?" β
Feng Tian smiled bitterly and said: "This is a headache, if our army cuts off the passage of western Liaoning, it will block the path of the Japanese invasion of Hebei, and Hebei will be safe."
However, the problem that arises is that our army will be responsible for the war against the power of Japan alone.
Let me ask, is the Northland Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army capable of defeating a country's army?
In the past victories, our army was still in a weak stage when it was first built, so it did not fight hard with the Japanese army, but fought skillfully and played conspiracy.
I can overshadow one division of the Japanese army, and in front of several divisions or even more troops, will my tactics still work?
You should be aware that at present, only the Northland Anti-Japanese Volunteers are fighting in the whole country.
However, Chairman Chiang has not yet made a decision, and has not yet issued an order for an all-out war of resistance, and still maintains the strategy of fighting outside the country and first securing the interior.
It is foreseeable that once our army cuts off this passage in western Liaoning, Chairman Chiang will be very happy to see that the anti-Japanese volunteers in the north will resist the Japanese army for him, and he will not support us in a single soldier. β
"This ...... It's possible. β
Zhang Shusen originally wanted to say that the Nationalist Government would send troops to support the Northland Volunteers, but when he thought of the reality, the Northland Anti-Japanese Volunteers had fought for a year, who would have helped the army?
His own ideas are really naΓ―ve, Zhang Shusen himself wants to slap his ears.
Feng Tian saw that his colleagues understood what he meant, and continued: "Therefore, it is a stupid move to cut off the Western Liaoning Corridor, the War of Resistance is a national war of resistance, and it is not something that the Northland Anti-Japanese Volunteers can do with it.
If the Japanese army attacks Hebei and our army shows its strength and advances into the Hebei War of Resistance, Chairman Chiang may be worried that our army will become too big and march into the Central Plains.
He will even worry that he will further threaten his orthodoxy, and the idea of containing our army will inevitably arise in his heart, which will be very unfavorable to the future national war of resistance.
At that time, the situation in the country will become more complicated, our army is fighting bloody battles in front, and we have to prevent people behind us from pulling back their legs, do you think, how should the Northland Volunteers respond?
Therefore, the Great Wall is an insurmountable boundary, and we must reassure Chairman Chiang. β
Feng Yong and the others shook their heads and sighed when they thought of Chairman Jiang's character, this matter is really difficult to do. The domestic situation is too complicated, and it seems that Hebei cannot be mixed in, otherwise, the situation of the anti-Japanese volunteers in the north will be ugly.
Zhao Zhenfan asked: "Commander-in-chief, if the Japanese army marches into Hebei, our army will not move, is that what you mean?" β
"It's not about standing still, it's about participating in the war to a limited extent.
For example, if our side sends the air force to fight, and it also uses the airfields in Shanxi or Hebei to fight, it supports the anti-Japanese war in Hebei and exercises the combat effectiveness of the air force. β
Lo and behold, this is the level, and the commander-in-chief always has a way to deal with it.
"Hehe, how to say hello, this brain is definitely not ordinary. I am afraid that the Japanese army will speed up the pace of aggression and our army will do nothing, I am afraid it is difficult to explain. We're still racking our brains here to figure out what to do, and you've already got it. β
Zhang Shusen and everyone were greatly impressed, with such a commander-in-chief, why worry that the anti-Japanese volunteers in the north could not become strong?
"So, from the very beginning, I gave the Japanese a false impression that the Northland Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army was very strong and was an army that was not easy to provoke.
As long as the Japanese army is the strength of a division, I will try my best to eat it, again and again, so that the Japanese feel that we are not easy to mess with.
This is the Japanese, you must defeat them, otherwise, like Zhang Xueliang and Chairman Chiang, they will only condone the Japanese army to invade quickly. β
Feng Tian really hit the nail on the head, didn't Chairman Jiang and Zhang Xueliang make the Japanese brave because of their timidity?
The more the Nationalist Government feared war, the more daring the Japanese dared to attack, and they moved step by step towards the general outbreak of war.
It took me until today to see clearly, as Feng Tian said, Chairman Jiang also has the ability to play tricks, as for other skills, hehe...... What a hopeless person.
And Zhao Zhenfan was concerned about army building, especially the new term that appeared today, and asked: "Commander-in-chief, you just said that our army will be upgraded to the army level on the basis of the division level, and the first army has one heavy division and two light infantry divisions, can you elaborate on it?" β
Feng Tian nodded and replied, "In order to meet the next step of the situation and defeat the aggressor, our army must vigorously develop army building and maintain a leading level. For a period of time in the future, our army will give priority to the development of army mechanization and armored clustering.
Before the 918 incident, I purchased a large amount of industrial equipment from abroad, and now it is already operational.
Nowadays, the industry in the north is developing rapidly, and a large number of military equipment will gradually equip the army.
This provides a guarantee for the Northland Volunteers, and a large number of transportation equipment will allow the army to march completely away from the way of walking on two legs, relying on mechanization to quickly transport troops, and then ensure the realization of strategic and tactical goals.
In the future, our army will counterattack the Japanese and Japanese, mainly relying on armored clusters to carry out breakthroughs, tactically implement blitzkrieg, destroy the Japanese army in one fell swoop, and never give them a chance to breathe.
That is to say, the heavy division is the main attacking force of our army, and after the heavy division breaks through, there must be a fast-moving army behind it, and the light infantry division is built on this basis and is a tactical supplement. β
"The commander means that the heavy division will form a separate armored unit, or that the existing armored brigade will be merged into the newly formed heavy division, right?" Chief of Staff Zhao Zhenfan probably understood what Feng Tian meant, the Northland Volunteer Army already had two armored brigades, but the equipment was just a little worse.
Feng Tian smiled and said, "Those two armored brigades are just experimental products, mainly to familiarize themselves with and practice tactics before the tanks are produced, and to prepare for the formation of armored forces in the future." The initial plan is that the next step is to keep only one armored brigade, split one armored brigade, and replenish it to several heavy divisions. At present, our army's armored brigades are developing rapidly and have already exceeded their strength, which has laid a good foundation for the next step of reorganization. β
Zhao Zhenfan and the others had to admire Feng Tian's foresight, they were ahead of everything, and now it was just a matter of course. (To be continued.) )
