In addition to solving the problem of the anti-Japanese decisive corps led by Jin Hu, Li Han planned to reorganize the security army, and he bought a lot of artillery this time, which must be equipped with the troops. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

However, the establishment of the security army is a bit chaotic now, in addition to a military headquarters and a division headquarters, the troops below are brigades and regiments, although Li Han also wants to arm the artillery regiment to the brigade and regiment level troops, but obviously, he does not have this belongings now.

However, the security army now has only one military headquarters and division headquarters, and more than 100 artillery pieces cannot only be equipped with the troops directly under these two departments, and Li Han also plans to officially include the militia units in the reserve system of the security forces.

Of course, the reorganization of the troops is not only related to the army, but also the finances of the provincial government are also a very important piece.

So this time, Li Han deliberately summoned all the officers above the regimental level of the security army to Zhangjiakou, and even the golden tiger who was far away in Tongliao was recovered by him.

At the same time, Wang Wei, Shi Dingzhong, Yan Zhonghua, and Liao Zhilong were also invited, and everyone discussed the reorganization of the troops.

"As you may have heard, this time I went to Peking and bought more than 100 cannons from German arms dealers. I tell you today that these are true, and that as soon as this batch of artillery arrives in Chahar, it will be equipped with your troops.

According to statistics, the strength of the various subordinate units of the security forces has reached more than 38,000 people, but there is only one division, and this has caused considerable inconvenience to our command.

However, the central government does not give us a number, and I can't make up a division number for everyone out of thin air. However, everything can be flexible, since we are a security force, the establishment of a few security teams is inevitably a little inadequate. ”

While speaking, Li Han asked people to send the troop reorganization plan that he had been pondering for a few days to everyone present, but although he thought about it alone, in fact, Li Han also started a head, plus determined several main officers, and the rest was completed by Gao Jian and the staff officers of the military department.

As soon as everyone heard Li Han's opening remarks, they knew that the military seat was planning to expand the troops, and that the Nanjing government had the right to issue the order to expand the troops, otherwise the underground officers would not have been chaotic in expanding the troops at will.

Of course, the officers of the security army who are doing it are of course fully supportive of the decision of the military seat, and the security army has not received a single shot from the central government until now, and they were able to receive some military salaries in the past, but after the security forces took over Chahar, their military salaries have basically stopped, so the central government has not much binding force on them.

Besides, if the army is not expanded, how can they climb up, everyone comes to serve as a soldier to protect their families and defend the country, but this does not conflict with their promotion and salary. No one wants to be a soldier for half their lives, and they will still be a big soldier when they retire from the army in the future.

Moreover, the Nanjing government is really not kind, the security army has been established for almost a year, and there is still only one division, which would be fine if it were placed in other provinces, but the defense area of the security army is Chahar, and there is a Japanese division directly opposite them.

Let's not mention weapons and equipment and the like, if it weren't for Li Hanming's secret involvement in a lot of unexpected troops, even the number of troops could not compare to the Japanese army, once the fight started, what would the security army have to resist a division of the Japanese army.

After Li Han finished speaking, he sat down, and the next job was the chief of staff, and Gao Jian took the initiative to stand up and began to say:

"Colleagues, regarding the plan for this reorganization, the military seat, I, and the staff officers of the military department have conducted a detailed investigation these days, and in light of the current environment faced by the integrated security forces, we have finally decided to set up a security division on the original basis.

After the expansion, the Security Army will have two divisions, the 145th Division and the 1st Security Division, each with two brigades and four regiments. After the reorganization, each regiment had three infantry battalions and three direct companies, each with four platoons.

Except for the regiments that are already equipped with German-made mortar companies and heavy machine gun companies, all other regimental units will be equipped with 80 mortars and Makqin heavy machine guns. In addition, an additional machine gun battery will be added to each battalion, armed with two mortars, four heavy machine guns and ten light machine guns.

And the armament of the infantry regiment will maintain the tradition of equipping light machine guns to the platoon and heavy machine guns to the company.

In addition, each brigade added an artillery battalion directly under its command equipped with 12 mountain guns or field artillery, and each division added an artillery regiment equipped with 24 Bofors 75 field guns.

After the reorganization, the number of each infantry regiment will be 2,450, the strength of each infantry brigade will reach 6,400, and the strength of each division will be close to 17,000.

Each division will have thirty-six seventy-five mm field guns, sixty-four mortars, one hundred and thirty-five heavy machine guns and two hundred and thirty-four light machine guns. ”

Obviously, the scale of this reorganization is unprecedented, and the strength of each division will reach 17,000 troops, mainly because the main artillery units have increased considerably.

There are more than 1,800 artillery regiments in the two battalions directly under the division headquarters, and the number of troops directly under each division has reached 3,800 when the supplementary battalion, the special service battalion, the guard battalion, and other miscellaneous personnel and staff officers of the division headquarters are added.

In addition to the above-mentioned two infantry divisions and four infantry brigades, the establishment of the independent brigade Li Han was also retained, and the weaponry and personnel were always with other infantry brigades, so that two infantry divisions plus one independent brigade were just 40,000 people.

At present, the number of regular troops in the security forces is more than 38,000, which means that only 2,000 soldiers need to be recruited.

However, if it was just like this, there would be no need for Li Han to make such a big move, and call people from both the military and political systems to a meeting.

In the security force system, the number of troops directly under the regiment level is 100 fewer than that of an infantry battalion, the number of troops directly under the brigade level is more than half a regiment, and the number of troops directly under the division level is more than one and a half regiments.

First of all, Xu Hu's artillery regiment was expanded, and all the previous field artillery and mountain artillery were replaced to arm the above-mentioned reorganized infantry brigade. They were able to replace with thirty-six seventy-five mm Bofors mountain guns and twelve one hundred and five mm howitzers prepared for them by Li Han.

In this way, the strength of the artillery regiment directly exceeded 3,000 and reached 3,600 men, making it the largest unit under the direct jurisdiction of the military department.

Li Han's purpose is obvious, the opponent of the artillery regiment is the artillery wing directly under the jurisdiction of the Japanese division in the future.

In addition to these three regiments, the military headquarters also has a cavalry regiment with an establishment of 1,500 men, and then there are non-combat units such as baggage regiments, communications regiments, and field hospitals.

According to statistics, Li Han's troops directly under the military headquarters have reached 14,000 people, which is about the same number as a division of the Central Army.

The division-level troops have been expanded to the extreme by Li Han, and a division with 17,000 people cannot reach this number, even if it is the ace of the Central Army, but there is still a big gap with a division of more than 20,000 people in the Japanese army.

Considering such factors, Li Han's initial positioning was to use one army to fight against one division of the Japanese army, and if one division could not work, he would let two divisions go together, of course, this army not only had strong firepower, but also had no less troops.

After Gao Jian finished talking about the specific establishment and weapons and equipment, he paused and continued: "According to the above-mentioned reorganization plan, the military department has made the following adjustments to the security forces.

First, because the 145th Division and the 145th Brigade are the number number units registered by the Nanjing government, there is no doubt that they will be retained, so we will form two brigades.

Second, the original 155th Brigade inherited the number of the 145th Brigade and formed a 146th Brigade, and the two brigades were incorporated into the 145th Division at the same time. Based on the original 145th Brigade, it was expanded into the 1st Security Division, under the jurisdiction of the 1st Security Brigade and the 2nd Security Brigade, and the independent brigade remained unchanged.

Third, with regard to the Northeast Anti-Japanese Death Brigade, the original plan was to expand it into a Death Column at this reorganization meeting, but at present, the strength of the Death Determination Corps is insufficient, so it will not be expanded for the first time.

However, the military seat has decided to hand over all the twelve infantry guns and forty-eight mortars of various types to the Golden Tiger.

Fourth, it is the reorganization of the militia units in Chahar and the province, which has grown to more than 8,000 people, and these 8,000 people will be directly incorporated into the combat units with this expansion.

However, the building of the militia must not be stopped, and it must be built into a reliable back-up force for the security forces. After the deliberations of the military seat and Chairman Wang, a reserve column will be set up to manage the militia forces in the province.

In the future, the reserve brigade will assume the responsibility of local public security, and all combat units will only need to concentrate on training their troops and be ready to fight the Japanese invaders at any time.

”

Although all the people present were already middle- and high-level officers of the security army, after listening to Gao Jian's reorganization plan, they all became excited.

They didn't know that Li Han's army expansion plan this time was so big. Not only has the strength of the army been expanded by half, but the equipment of the cannons has reached a level of luxury.

If the security forces were equipped in accordance with Li Han's standards, not counting the aircraft, the firepower of the security forces' equipment would have been able to suppress a division of the Japanese army.

Moreover, with this expansion, the security army has added one more division commander, two brigade commanders and four regiment commanders, but the lowest of those present are already regiment commanders.

Some people already knew that they had no hope of being promoted to brigade commander, so they were not in a hurry, they were completely curious, and they also thought of knowing who could become the brigade commander and who would be the candidate for division commander.
