Chapter 258: Good Strategy

Beili Town, Dayantun. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Head Zhang, we will have to cooperate and work together in the future, I hope we can cooperate happily."

Ni Zhenghu stepped forward to give Zhang Zuolin a hug, the former deputy head of the 202nd Regiment Ni Zhenghu was officially transferred to the new independent regiment as chief of staff, the mood at the moment, to be honest, Ni Zhenghu is a little complicated, after all, the little man in front of him was still a prisoner yesterday, and today he actually became the head of the new independent regiment of the Black Dragon Army, and he can even be said to be his boss (nominally, the head and chief of staff of a regiment are at the same level, and the division of labor is different, but in fact, the regiment commander must be the boss, which everyone can understand. I have to say that life has ups and downs, and the changes are too fast, which makes people dizzy.

Speaking of which, Ni Zhenghu was able to serve as the head of the new independent regiment, which was mainly due to the fact that the building was close to the water, if it weren't for the tight time and heavy tasks of the independent regiment, and the 201st regiment and the 203rd regiment were both out on a mission at the moment, and they were not close to Dayantun one after another, so Ni Zhenghu picked up a bargain, otherwise, he might not really get his turn.

Anyway, Ni Zhenghu is still very happy to be able to step from the deputy regiment to the main regiment level, although the independent regiment still needs them to develop and form, but Ni Zhenghu believes that as long as there is this development platform, then the future is definitely promising, the only thing that worries him is the guy in front of him, he doesn't know the details, and he doesn't know if it's a good match.

"Chief of Staff Ni, what you say can be seen, from today onwards, we are just brothers who eat in a pot, how can we cooperate unpleasantly, although Commander-in-Chief Meng took a fancy to him and entrusted me with a heavy responsibility, let me Zhang Zuolin serve as the head of this independent regiment, but Zhang Zuolin is still self-aware, for the Black Dragon Army, I Zhang Zuolin is a new soldier, so ah, Chief of Staff Ni, from now on, you have to remind from time to time, and advise me on everything, if I Zhang Zuolin has something that is not in place, Chief of Staff Ni, although you are blunt and corrective, there is no need to worry about my Zhang Zuolin's face, and my Zhang Zuolin will definitely accept it with an open mind,......。 ”

Zhang Zuolin's posture is very low, if you want to have long-term development in the Black Dragon Army, then you must first gain a firm foothold, Zhang Zuolin will not be self-righteous and think that he can inexplicably win the favor of the commander-in-chief, you can look above the top and look at everything, if this is the case, then I am afraid that I am not far from death.

Besides, Ni Zhenghu is not a person without roots, according to Zhang Zuolin's knowledge, Ni Zhenghu is from the Yue family's dart bureau, the real root red Miao Zheng, the old brother who came out of the dart bureau, as long as the ability is not too poor, most of them are already middle and high-level backbone members of the Black Dragon Army, and if the independent regiment wants military salaries, equipment or something in the future, I am afraid that it will mainly depend on Ni Zhenghu to open his mouth.

"Head Zhang is polite, everyone will learn from each other and make progress together in the future." Ni Zhenghu smiled, then turned his head and said to a few people behind him: "This is the head of our independent regiment." ”

"Hello Head Zhang, I thank Youke."

"Hello Captain Zhang, Pan Deng."

……

Ni Zhenghu was transferred from the 202nd Regiment to the new independent regiment this time, and at the request of the above, he only brought four people, and the positions were also clear, that is, the chief of staff of the four battalions of the new independent regiment, because there were too many prisoners, and there were probably many good seedlings who could be selected into it, so Yue Weihua gave Zhang Zuolin four battalions of 2,200 people.

For these four novices, Zhang Zuolin also attaches great importance to them, shaking hands and smiling one by one, and they are all commensurate with brothers, without the slightest pretension of a commander, which makes Xie Youke and the other four feel better, although they were basically deputy positions in the 202nd Regiment before, either deputy battalion commander, or even deputy company commander, but if it wasn't for Ni Zhenghu to bring them over by name, they really didn't want to come, after all, no one knew if this commander was good to get along with, and more importantly, if nothing else, they would have fallen into the bandits' den in this life.

"By the way, Xie Youke, a few of you take some brothers and go to Commander Vlar to get equipment." Ni Zhenghu smiled and ordered.

"Yes, Chief of Staff."

After Xie Youke and the four of them went out, Zhang Zuolin hurriedly asked, "Chief of Staff, what equipment did Regiment Commander Vlaar give us?" ”

"Oh, I'm ashamed to say it, because when I'm out of the house, the 202nd Regiment doesn't have any extra equipment, so as long as there are eight of their spare Makqin heavy machine guns, as for the rest, the 202nd Regiment really doesn't have too much superfluous, and considering that we are mainly guarding prisoners, so, I didn't open my mouth, but the weapons captured today, although they are uneven, they are a little worse, so I have to choose some good ones and use them first,......。"

"Commander Zhang, what kind of expression do you have, oops, eight Makqin is a little less, but as long as you swing around the prisoner camp to ensure that there are no dead ends in the firepower, let's use it for the time being, and when we finish this battle, return to the headquarters and change clothes, isn't it a matter of time." Ni Zhenghu explained.

"Ahem."

Zhang Zuolin was choked not lightly, where is he too little, but, I really don't know how to describe it, most of the team he pulled from Fengtian is still a big knife, and now the independent regiment is good, and it has not yet been formally assembled, it already has eight Makqin heavy machine guns, as far as Zhang Zuolin knows, even the descendants of Jilin General Changshun are not equipped with even one Makqin heavy machine gun.

"That, Chief of Staff Ni, let's not talk about weapons for now." Zhang Zuolin was really worried that he would have a foreign appearance if he continued, so he quickly changed the topic and said: "I want to discuss with you the issue of the main officer candidates of our independent regiment. ”

"Oh, this question, Commander Vlaar has already explained it to me, Xie Youke and the four of them are all battalion chiefs of staff, as for other personnel issues, they are all up to you, I have no opinion." Ni Zhenghu said that although he was slightly jealous of the authority given to Zhang Zuolin from above, since the above had spoken, Ni Zhenghu didn't plan to worry about that more.

"Chief of Staff Ni, look at what you said, the Independent Regiment is not my Zhang Zuolin's independent kingdom, how can it be decided on such an important personnel appointment and dismissal, this is not the tradition of our Black Dragon Army, right?" Zhang Zuolin smiled and said with a smile, although the above valued him and gave him absolute rights, but Zhang Zuolin was not a fool, on the contrary, he was also very smart, and smart people naturally would not do things that fools do.

In the face of Zhang Zuolin's kindness, Ni Zhenghu could naturally feel it, so he smiled and said: "Captain Zhang, you are too careful, the purpose of the above arrangement is naturally so that we can form the independent regiment as soon as possible and better complete the tasks assigned to us above, this is a special matter, Captain Zhang, you really don't have to take it to heart." ”

For what Ni Zhenghu said, Zhang Zuolin also smiled in return, realizing that the two of them had been chatting for so long, and he also tried his best to show goodwill, so he thought about getting closer to each other, and said: "Oh, you and I, the regiment commander and the chief of staff, are also awkward to call around, so let's do it, you and I are of the same age, if Chief of Staff Ni can afford Zhang, it is better to call me stop the rain, or call me Zhang Zuolin directly." ”

"Haha, okay, I also feel awkward, Brother Yuzhi, then you can just call me the nickname Big Tiger, the Chief of the General Staff They have liked to call me that since I was a child." Ni Zhenghu said with a smile, for Zhang Zuolin's intention to bring the relationship between the two sides closer, Ni Zhenghu is naturally happy to see it.

"Okay." Zhang did smiled and said: "Big Tiger, that's the case, although the above has given me a lot of authority, but there are too few people under my command who can afford to stand on the table, and the importance of the battalion-level military commander is self-evident, this is definitely related to the future of our independent regiment, so ah, I plan to pick two of the four Xie Youke and them out to serve as the battalion commander, of course, the other two must enter the other two battalions as the chief of staff, what do you think?" ”

I have to say that Zhang Zuolin is quite good at being a person, and he is quite good at getting things done, don't look at the battalion commander and the battalion chief of staff are at the same level, but in fact, the gap between the two is not half a star, and it is even far greater than the gap between the regiment commander and the regiment chief of staff.

Because, the battalion chief of staff is dispensable, most of the time, that is, in charge of logistics, there is nothing important to do, the vast majority of battalions are not even worthy of the chief of staff, but by the battalion commander on the shoulder, after all, a battalion is only 500 people, how many chores can be done, and where do you need any staff officers, and most of the time the battalion-level operations are under orders, let you fight, then fight, and it will be over.

However, the battalion commander is different, if the battalion commander does a good job, he can even be directly promoted to the regiment commander, this situation is quite common, and sometimes, even more than the regimental chief of staff, this is equivalent to sending favors directly to Ni Zhenghu, because there is no doubt that Xie Youke and the four of them can be brought over by Ni Zhenghu, it must be Ni Zhenghu's people,

What's more, if there are really two people under Ni Zhenghu who serve as battalion commanders, then it is equivalent to Zhang Zuolin's mouth, and he sent two battalions to Ni Zhenghu.

Of course, Zhang Zuolin did this, not just to win over Ni Zhenghu, but also to show the above, as for saying that there is no suitable candidate, that is only one reason, after all, no one is born, just learn if you don't understand, right.

"Brother Yuzhi, I'm afraid I have to report this matter to the above, if the above doesn't object, I naturally won't object." Ni Zhenghu said bluntly, although he didn't know Zhang Zuolin's true intention to do this, but he had no reason to refuse this kind of thing, and if he really refused, and Xie Youke and the four of them knew about it, I am afraid that he would have to hate himself to death.

"That's a must." Zhang Zuolin smiled before continuing: "However, we must immediately set the battalion-level commander, and then we can carry out the next work, after all, there is not much time, and after waiting for someone to choose, we may need to go to the prisoner camp overnight to select people." ”

"Okay, since Brother Yu stopped being polite, then I'll tell you my opinion,......"

……

The two quickly exchanged opinions, and immediately determined the candidates for the four battalion commanders, Ni Zhenghu's side is Xie Youke and Lu Yuan, both of them were deputy battalion commanders before, although they have not served for a long time, but after all, the responsibilities of the battalion commander are still relatively clear, and the ability is passable, and it is no problem to serve as the newly formed battalion commander.

Zhang Zuolin's side, the two recommended battalion commanders are Zhang Jinghui, and the other is his own concurrent, no way, he is indeed no one who can get his hands on, he originally wanted to be nepotistic and let his brother-in-law Zhao Song take the top first, but he still gave up after thinking about it, it is still clear that his brother-in-law can eat a few taels of rice, of course, if there is growth in the future, then it is not too late to be promoted.

After setting the list of battalion-level military commanders, the two of them directly reported the list to the general headquarters (because they were not subordinate to the Xigang Military Division), although it was late at night, but the telegram passed, that is, ten minutes was affirmed by the headquarters.

Therefore, Zhang Zuolin and Ni Zhenghu quickly had a brief conversation with Zhang Jinghui, Xie Youke, and Lu Yuan, and after the conversation was over, they directly convened the first military meeting of the independent regiment on the spot.

Zhang Zuolin also heard about the style of some Black Dragon Army, and the meeting was not vain, so after everyone introduced each other, he went straight to the point: "The General Headquarters only gives us one day to prepare for the new independent regiment, and within this day, we must not only build up the framework of the independent regiment, but also do a good job of taking over the heavy responsibility of the 202nd regiment guarding the prisoners, it should be said that it is a matter of tight time and heavy tasks." ”

"However, since the commander-in-chief can afford me Zhang Zuolin, then I Zhang Zuolin will definitely work hard to complete this task, of course, if you want to complete this task, you must do your full cooperation, and the first thing to do next is to select troops and officers, then we will first ask Chief of Staff Ni to say a few words and tell about the relevant precautions for the recruitment of the Black Dragon Army, everyone is welcome."

Although he called everyone brothers and sisters before the meeting, once he arrived at the venue, Zhang Zuolin quickly entered the role of the boss of the independent regiment.

After the applause, Ni Zhenghu said: "Regarding recruitment, especially recruiting from prisoners, we mainly need to follow several principles, one is that the evil bandits and habitual bandits who commit heinous crimes are not accepted, and the other is that those who smoke big cigarettes and gamble and other bad habits are not accepted, and technical arms, such as artillery, sharpshooters, etc., as well as good skills and good riding skills, this category must be preferred." ”

"However, because our independent regiment is not only short of soldiers, but also short of officers, the selection of this officer is indeed a little difficult, but this problem should not be difficult for Regiment Commander Zhang."

Zhang Zuolin smiled and took over and said: "I do have some ideas about this problem, and as long as it is used well, the task of guarding and escorting the prisoners may become very simple, and even the later screening work will not be too troublesome." ”

"Oh."

Ni Zhenghu, together with Xie Youke and a few others, were a little surprised, after all, there were already nearly 10,000 prisoners, and I am afraid it would increase to 20,000 after tonight, but the independent regiment had not yet been established, and what was even more difficult was that these prisoners could not be kept in Dayantun, but they had to be transferred to Moling Town as soon as possible, this task was not easy.

"Hehe, if you listen to me, you will know if my old chapter is talking big again."

"Actually, as far as the nearly 10,000 people we have captured are concerned, there are more than 40 forces in total, more than four or five hundred, less than one or two hundred, most of them used to be green forests, and a small half were militia groups, and according to my preliminary estimates, about two-thirds of these more than 40 forces are from Fengtian, and these bearded people or people from the militia group in Fengtian, I know a lot of people, especially the people in the green forest, even if they haven't seen it, they have heard of it more or less, whether it is good or evil, I have heard of it more or less."

"Therefore, I plan to select the main leaders of the group of militia groups and righteous bandits I know, and let them serve as first-class officers of our independent regiment, and then through their connections, absorb more main leaders of the militia and righteous bandits, these people, who can be the king and hegemon in the beard, and be the boss in the militia group, must still have the ability, and the knowledge will not be too bad, they should be able to recognize the reality clearly, and know how to make trade-offs and choices."

"Of course, the key point in this is not to let the bandits and some hypocrites get involved, and I, Zhang Zuolin, will personally check this."

"In this way, the main officers of our independent regiment have been established, then it is naturally not difficult for the soldiers, they must be recruited from the command of these leaders, and those who are not hired, because of the appeasement of their leaders, will naturally not make trouble, and it is easier to manage themselves, and as long as we give a promise, as long as they behave well, we can promise to give them freedom after the war, and even join the Black Dragon Army, I think they will definitely be willing to cooperate, and even help us guard those evil bandits, bandits and the like."

"What do you think?"

"Haha, it's a brilliant plan."

"In this way, our task is indeed simple."
