Leaving the government office building, Zhang Guochang came to the headquarters of the 1st Division. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Now the first division has only one name, and it hasn't even put up a shelf, let alone anything else.
…………
"Young Patriarch! You're here! ............ "I heard that Zhang Guochang was coming, Zhang Long hurriedly came out and invited Zhang Guochang into the headquarters!"
After entering the headquarters, Zhang Guochang went straight to the point, "When will the people at home arrive?" ”
On the day of the laying of Shiwu Ya, Zhang Guochang ordered Zhang Long to send a telegram to his home, asking for 10,000 soldiers to be dispatched!
"Back to the young patriarch! We've called it up! It's time to get on board today! Zhang Long hurriedly got up and reported, "In addition, immigrants are also in the emergency recruitment, and 50,000 people have already signed up, and it is estimated that they will be sent later." ”
"Hmmm! Sentries have been sent? Zhang Guochang nodded and asked again.
"It's all sent out!"
"That's good! Be sure to pay close attention to your surroundings! Nor can we let our guard down at sea! Sooner or later, we will have a fight with the Dutch! ”
"Don't worry! Young Patriarch! The Dutch are coming, and we are absolutely confident that we will knock them away! Zhang Long immediately assured Zhang Guochang.
Zhang Guochang still believes in this, he believes that on land, the army he has trained is not inferior to the army of any country.
"Good! Just have faith! Be vigilant at all times! Zhang Guochang nodded with satisfaction, "Today I am mainly here to talk about the reorganization of the troops!" ”
"Let's put up the shelves first! Wait for the family's soldiers to replenish as soon as they arrive. ”
"Yes! Please advise the young patriarch! Zhang Longli stood upright, waiting for Zhang Guochang to speak.
"Sit down! Sit down and speak! Zhang Guochang smiled and waved his hand.
The Second Brigade has been trained well in Zhang Peng's hands, and it has only been half a year, and all of them are full of military flavor, and they have the style of a soldier when they speak and do things.
"That's what I think, the first division after the reorganization is equipped for the whole United States.
Each infantry squad, with a full force of 10 people, is equipped with an M1918 Browning automatic rifle, an M1903 Springfield sniper rifle, and eight Garand M1 semi-automatic rifles.
A platoon plus a platoon headquarters of 3 people, a full force of 45 people, equipped with a field radio station.
Three infantry squads, one firepower squad.
The fireteam squad was full of 12 people, with a M1919A4 Browning medium machine gun! One M2-60mm mortar!
A company has a full strength of 194 people, 24 people in the company headquarters, 2 chief and deputy company commanders, 2 chief and deputy instructors, 4 people in a communications squad, 6 people in a reconnaissance squad directly under it, 10 people in a cooking squad directly under it, and two field radio stations.
Three infantry platoons, one heavy fire platoon,
Heavy fire platoon, 35 people, 4 M2-60mm mortars, three M1919A4 medium machine guns!
A battalion has a full strength of 800 people, 56 people in the battalion headquarters, 30 people in the guard platoon directly under the battalion, equipped with 5 M1918 Browning automatic rifles, 25 Garand M1 semi-automatic rifles, 10 people in the communications squad directly under the battalion, and 10 people in the cooking squad directly under the battalion.
Three infantry companies, one heavy fire support company,
Heavy fire support company, 120 people, with 12 M2-60mm mortars.
A regiment has a full strength of 2,800 people, three infantry battalions, a reconnaissance company directly under it, a guard company directly under it, a car company directly under it, and a communications platoon of 30 people.
The car company has 120 people and 60 trucks.
A division with a full strength of 12,000 people, three infantry regiments, three artillery battalions, one directly subordinate guard battalion, one directly subordinate reconnaissance battalion, one communications company, and one automobile company.
Artillery battalion with twelve M1105mm howitzers. ”
Zhang Guochang's consideration of the establishment refers to the establishment of the Chinese People's Liberation Army and the US Army in World War II, and the weaponry is from the perspective of logistics, whether it is a rifle or a light or heavy machine gun, the 7.62 caliber is chosen, so that the caliber of the bullet is unified, and the logistics and material support work is easy to do.
After hearing this, Zhang Long swallowed his saliva, "Young Patriarch! It's good to be equipped like this! But where am I going to get the weapons you mentioned? ”
After a pause, he continued: "There is another question, we have been equipped with 60 mortars before, and the M1105mm howitzer you are talking about, no one will use it?" ”
Zhang Guochang said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about weapons!" I have already asked Zhang Le to purchase it in the United States, and now the cargo ship transporting weapons is estimated to be at sea! ”
"Don't worry about the use of howitzers, I asked Zhang Le to invite a few teachers in the United States to teach you how to use howitzers."
"Still have questions?"
"No more!" Zhang Long stood up, stood upright, and replied loudly.
"That's good! You should consider the candidates for the regiment commander, battalion commander, and company commander below, and report it! I have only one requirement: I must be a member of the Socialist Party! ”
"Yes!"
"In the future, this is a hard standard, and officers above the company level must be members of the Socialist Party!"
"Yes!"
"That's it! Hurry up and do what I said! I'll go first! ”
After saying that, Zhang Guochang left the headquarters of the first division directly, this is the benefit of the clan, he does not have to contact the soldiers like other generals with troops, and cultivate loyalty.
As the heir of the clan, Zhang Guochang has no worries about the loyalty of his subordinates as long as he does not do things that harm the interests of the entire clan and does not do things that anger and resentment.

******
The reaction speed of the Dutch is faster than Zhang Guochang imagined.
On the fifth day of the occupation of Sivuga, the Dutch warships were killed.
Early in the morning, Zhang Guochang was in his office reviewing the reorganization plan submitted by Zhang Longbao.
The guards barged in and reported, "Young Patriarch! Several warships came to the sea! ”
Zhang Guochang hurriedly stood up, took the binoculars, walked to the balcony, and looked in the direction of the harbor.
I saw six old warships flying the red, blue and white tricolor flags docked near the harbor.
Zhang Guochang sighed that the Dutch really looked up to him, and actually sent six cruisers to deal with him.
"Boom! Rumble! ”
While thinking about it, the Dutch warship opened fire, not aiming at the city of Shiwuya, but at an open space outside the city.
It seems that the Dutch are ready to salute before they are soldiers, and this shelling is only a deterrent and intimidation before negotiations.
Sure enough, after two shots, the warship stopped shelling.
"Report! The enemy army was found in the east and north of Shiwuya, and the number was about five thousand! "The guards came in again to report.
"Order Zhang Long! Divide your forces to meet the enemy forces on land! Warships at sea are dealt with according to the plan! ”
For Dutch warships, Zhang Guochang really doesn't look down on them, light cruisers during World War I, 150mm caliber naval guns, the maximum range is about ten kilometers!
"Yes!" Guard, salute and go out.
It wasn't long before the guards came in again.
"Report! A foreigner from the envoy of the Dutch governor asked to see the supreme officer! (To be continued.) )
