Chapter 496: Armament I

Zhang Xinghan stayed in Nanjing for about a month and a half, after the operation of the new government's agencies remained basically stable. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

He took a plane back to Jilin, Northeast China, where he is still the center of the country's military, especially military and heavy industrial enterprises.

After two years of war, Zhang Xinghan found that his air force, especially the airborne forces, was still too weak.

There is only one more airborne brigade.

In terms of the navy, although some time ago it produced a number of small and medium-sized warships such as the battleship Weiqing from the watch.

&: Pig: Pig: Island: Novel 3w.; However, there is still a big gap in overall tonnage compared to the naval powers of Western powers, such as Britain, and the United States.

In the naval battle with the Japanese, the air force and submarine forces of the Northeast Sea were able to offset the gap in the overall number and tonnage of the two sides by virtue of their qualitative superiority, and thus achieve victory.

However, old Western powers like Britain and the United States, especially the maritime hegemon of Britain, have a very complete overall industrial system and military industrial system.

The overall level is also significantly higher than that of Japan, and the war potential is even less of a grade.

Therefore, in the future, it will be difficult to offset the quantitative advantage with quality and win.

Because the gap between the two is so large that it cannot be bridged by individual advantages.

The previous battle between the Northeast Navy and the Air Force of Japan was like ten big men fighting fifty teenage kids.

Among the ten big men, two are good at underwater and aerial skills.

Such a victory or defeat is self-evident.

However, with the current strength of the National Revolutionary Army, if it encounters a war with the British and American powers.

It's like ten big men beating a hundred fifteen or sixteen-year-old boys.

One or two, two or three and a half children may not be able to beat the former, but five, ten, twenty and twenty will fight one, and the result will be difficult to say.

And. The opponent may also mobilize hundreds or thousands of half-sized men in the future, and even as the battle progresses, the half-size sons will be upgraded to a big man, which can be thrown into battle.

In that case, the Chinese army would be defeated.

Even ships, aircraft, artillery, ammunition, and fuel can be provided free of charge as much as possible.

But the gap in the overall industrial level and the military system is still there, and China's air force and navy are too short of professional reserves.

Therefore, Zhang Xinghan will meet Jilin this time. It is intended to train specialists in the Airborne Forces and the Navy and Air Force on a large scale.

Now under the leadership of the new government, China has completed de facto reunification, and the soil for the large-scale construction of various specialized military academies to train professionals of all branches of the armed forces is already in place.

As long as these plans are put into action, within a few years, China's demographic advantage will be manifested, and we have 40,000 people.

The potential of talents that can be tapped is endless.

Jiang Baili and Guo Zhong naturally returned to Jilin with Zhang Xinghan.

If the only biggest loophole in this reshuffle of the new government is Jiang Baili, who is the chief of the general staff of the Northeast Army.

When reshuffling, it was not without regard to him. Even at Zhang Xinghan's suggestion, the Military Commission was ready to appoint him chief of staff of the army, navy, and air force, and concurrently vice chairman of the Military Commission.

But Jiang Baili was reluctant to take up the post and said to Zhang Xinghan. If he were forced to take office, he would rather retire to the mountains and forests and no longer care about the country's military.

In the end, Zhang Xinghan had no choice but to appoint him as his staff adjutant. Core staff.

After Zhang Xinghan returned to Jilin, within a few days, the results of the national government's title also came out.

In addition to the original Yan Xishan. He Yingqin, Han Fuqu, Liu Xiang, Zhang Xueliang, Hu Zongnan and other army generals.

There are also new army generals such as Wang Yaowu, Tang Enbo, Du Yuming, Guan Linzheng, Gu Zhutong, Xue Yue, Liu Bocheng, and Peng Dehuai.

It is worth mentioning that Zhang Lingfu was promoted to lieutenant general of the army, which is the fastest rising star in a short period of time in addition to Zhang Xinghan in recent years.

After returning to Jilin, Zhang Xinghan went home for two days, after all, he had not been home for nearly four months since he went south for reorganization.

The wife and children are panicking.

In addition, the Lunar New Year is about to pass, and now that everything is stable in China, Zhang Xinghan can finally have a happy and relaxed reunion with his family.

In the courtyard of the Zhang family, Zhang Xinghan was teasing his pair of children, and the two little guys were fat and now it was time to babble, and they could shout out a sentence or two of father in front of them.

In the kitchen, his wife Wang Ruoying is preparing meals with her mother-in-law.

At this time, his father Zhang Yuxi walked out of the living room with a cigarette gun in one hand and a pair of chess in the other, and said to Zhang Xinghan with a smile: "Xinghan, do you have time?" There is time for the two of us to play the next game. ”

Zhang Xinghan walked over with one in one hand and two little guys.

After sitting down, Zhang Yuxi asked, "It's only been a few days since I saw the New Year, when will your brother come back?" ”

"Xinghua has now been appointed by the Military Council as the commander of the Air Force of the Japanese Dispatch Army, and is leading troops to be stationed on Kyushu Island to carry out the strategic plan of the blockade against Japan, and the military affairs are busy.

However, I have already called him two days ago, and I guess I will be able to arrange my subordinates' work in these two days and come back. ”

"Oh." Zhang Yuxi smoked a dry cigarette and nodded.

"Master, don't smoke in front of your grandchildren, the doctors have said that it is not good for the child's health." At this time, Liu Liping walked out of the kitchen with a hot dish, and just saw the two men who were playing against each other, and couldn't help but admonish.

Zhang Yuxi laughed dryly: "Okay, I don't smoke, I don't smoke." As he spoke, he took out the cigarette from the snub.

As soon as he finished eating, Guo Zhong walked in happily and saluted Zhang Xinghan: "Commission, Gao Zhihang, Liu Cuigang, and Wang Longxiang have all arrived." ”

"Oh? Did you inform the Chief of Staff? Zhang Xinghan asked.

"Well, it has been notified, and the chief of staff is now at the headquarters." Guo Zhong nodded and replied.

"Okay, we'll go over now, you wait, my dress." Zhang Xinghan turned around and went back to the house, took a winter military coat, said goodbye to his family, and got into the car at the door with Guo Zhong.

Hurried all the way to the headquarters.

Since the national capital is still in Nanjing for the time being, and the headquarters of the Central Military Commission is also located in Nanjing, the office of Zhang Xinghan, chairman of the committee, is also in Nanjing.

The former commander-in-chief of the Northeast Army in Jilin has become his line of action in Jilin.

When they arrived at the headquarters, Jiang Baili, Gao Zhihang, Liu Cuigang, Wang Longxiang and others had already been waiting for a long time.

Hearing the footsteps, they greeted him and saluted.

Wang Longxiang shouted the general seat, and Liu Cuigang quipped: "Long Xiang, your title is wrong, now you have to call the chairman, or the commission." ”

Wang Longxiang smiled embarrassedly: "Yes, yes, I was quick to speak, but I said it wrong, don't blame it!" ”

Zhang Xinghan smiled and waved his hand, beckoning everyone to walk into the conference room and sit down, and there was already hot tea brought by the orderlies.

The weather in the Northeast in December is still very cold, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as dripping into ice.

The brazier was lit in the conference room, and the coal in the brazier was red, and the room was as warm as spring.

"It's still warm in the house, it's too cold in our northeast, and when I came, it was snowing in Nanjing, but the temperature was much warmer than in the northeast." Liu Cuigang said.

Gao Zhihang said: "That's nature, thousands of miles apart, if you go further southeast, to Guangzhou, at this time just wear a single clothes, how can we be like us, one by one wrapped like a big fat zongzi." ”

After speaking, Gao Zhihang also pulled the three layers of clothes on his body.

"Okay, let's talk about it later, let's get down to business first." Zhang Xinghan said to Jiang Baili: "Brother Baili, tell them about it." ”

Jiang Baili nodded, and said to Wang Longxiang and the others: "The main reason for summoning you to Jilin this time is to deploy the next stage of tasks for you.

The government has been reorganized successfully, and the four major front armies have been established, all of which are nominally directly under the direct jurisdiction of the Military Commission, but your air force and airborne troops still only need to be responsible to one person in the commission.

Long Xiang, in view of the fact that your airborne troops have played a great role in several battles in the past and to the present, it has been decided after discussion between me and the commissioner.

The Airborne Forces will be separated from the Air Force, a completely new branch of the armed forces will be set up, and a headquarters will be set up, with you as the commander, and then under the direct jurisdiction of the Military Commission.

After the end of the year, the committee will mobilize the Military Committee and the Executive Yuan to merge the Longxing and Huangpu Military Academies and set up branch campuses throughout the country.

All middle-level and grass-roots and even high-level officers from all walks of life who have not attended military academies will be sent to military academies for further study.

At the same time, each military academy will also set up special selection classes for the Air Force, Navy, and Airborne Forces, and the members will be selected from the units of the four major front armies.

The selection of the most talented and best personnel into the military academy training, due to the lack of personnel in our country's airborne forces, so the airborne brigade in the future, if not under special circumstances. There will be no combat missions for the time being.

All of them were assigned to various military academies to serve as instructors of the airborne troops, and a large number of them trained more airborne personnel for our country.

The same is true for the Air Force and Navy, after the first year of training, you can select qualified Airborne Cadets from various military academies to expand the Airborne Forces. ”

Wang Longxiang nodded in understanding.

Zhang Xinghan added to Gao Zhihang and Liu Cuigang: "The two of you should also seize more time and train more pilots for the motherland."

I believe you are also very aware that in the current era of war, the air force plays a crucial role in the victory or defeat of the war. ”

"Now Lao Gao and Lao Liu, both of you are already the chief and deputy commanders of the Air Force, and you must be careful to deal with all aspects of the world in the future, so as not to be caught.

After all, it's too cold to be in high places, and it will be difficult for me to do it then. Zhang Xinghan instructed.

"Please rest assured, we will do our best to do our part." The two nodded in unison.

"Hmm." Zhang Xinghan said: "By the way, there is another thing, that is, the navy should also set up a sea-based aviation subordinate to them, so that it is convenient to deal with future wars. (To be continued......)
