Since Zhang Wei has already decided to start launching a general offensive before 10 December, all departments will prepare and carry out the attack according to this time. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

First of all, it is necessary to determine that the army's weapons and equipment must not be too modern, and that heavy weapons cannot be equipped too much, otherwise this bad environment will not be able to play its due combat strength, and it will still be mainly lightweight. According to this principle, the division headquarters was equipped with 1 artillery battalion, and the Bofors 1930 75mm mountain guns were selected, 12 pieces; The regimental headquarters is equipped with 1 artillery battalion, using the previously purchased Schneider 1906 65mm mountain guns, 18 pieces; The battalion headquarters was equipped with mortars, M1-81mm mortars were chosen, 6 units; The company is equipped with mortars, and the M2-60mm mortars are chosen, 6 pieces, these kinds of guns are absolutely against the sky in this era.

Light weapons, the rifle is still Mauser G98, the machine gun is equipped with MG42 general-purpose machine gun, and the rifle uses the same bullet to reduce the logistical pressure, and the gun is also particularly cheap, the stamping process is adopted, the processing cost is ultra-low, and the price is lower than that of the Maxim heavy machine gun; The squad platoon leader and above cadres are all equipped with Mauser C60 pistols, although they are not good-looking, but they are practical; The squad leader, deputy squad leader, and platoon company commander are equipped with Garand M1 rifles. As for the replacement light weapons, they are either exported or used in garrisons.

After reading this weapon allocation table, Zhang Wei felt that when he fought with the Dutch troops, he felt like bullying children, it was too modern, and it was basically more than 40 years of technology beyond reality. Zhang Wei decided to use a light machine gun or choose a Madsen light machine gun, the bullet is the same bullet as the rifle, the logistics pressure is not large, lighter, the price is lower, that is, the rate of fire is slower, but it is enough, the heavy machine gun chooses MG34, the bullet is universal, the price is not high, it is lighter than Makqin, the technology is only more advanced for more than 20 years, and it is acceptable; The regimental artillery battalion was changed to 12 guns, and because the rate of fire was too fast, if it was 18, the logistical pressure would be too great, and there was no need to say it.

As for staffing, a number of adjustments have also been made:

Infantry Establishment:

Infantry squad: 1 squad leader, 1 deputy squad leader, 8 infantrymen, 1 light machine gunner, 1 ammunition hand (baggage soldier), a total of 12 people; (Light machine gun for Madsen)

Infantry platoon: 1 platoon commander, 1 deputy platoon commander, 3 infantry squads, 6 M2-60mm mortar crews, a total of 44 people; (1 horse per M2 mortar)

Infantry company: 1 company commander, 1 deputy company commander, 3 infantry platoons, 11 heavy machine gun squads/2 guns, M2-60mm mortar platoon 20 people/3 guns, 15 baggage squads, 12 guard reconnaissance squads, 1 doctor and 2 nurses, total: 195 people; (The guard reconnaissance squad is equipped with a Garand M1 rifle and a heavy machine gun MG34)

Infantry battalion: 1 battalion commander, 1 deputy battalion commander, 1 junior staff officer, 4 infantry companies, 50 people/6 guns in the M1-81mm mortar platoon, 38 people in the guard platoon, 38 people in the reconnaissance platoon; There are 38 people in the baggage platoon, 3 clerks, 3 doctors, 6 nurses, and 4 communications, a total of 960 people; (2 horses per M1 mortar)

Infantry Regiment: 1 regiment commander, 1 deputy regiment commander, 1 junior staff officer, 4 infantry battalions, 116 guard companies, 116 reconnaissance companies, 116 baggage companies, 4 clerks, 7 doctors, 14 nurses, 4 communicators, 300 people/12 guns of the Schneider 1906 65mm mountain artillery battalion, a total of 4,520 people. (3 horses per cannon)

Infantry Division: 1 division commander, 1 deputy division commander, 1 intermediate staff officer, 3 junior staff officers, 4 infantry regiments, 500 guard battalions, 500 baggage battalions, 350 reconnaissance battalions, 500 heavy artillery regiments, 12 Bofors 1930 75mm mountain guns, 12 communication squads, 12 clerks, 40 field hospitals, etc., a total of 20,000 people.

In addition, a heavy artillery regiment was specially synthesized, armed with 105mm howitzers and 155mm howitzers.

After this reorganization, wireless telegraphs were equipped at the battalion level, which facilitated communication and command.

Zhang Wei was still very satisfied with this formation, which could not only move quickly, but also had a strong firepower output, and there were few troops that could match it before World War I. Let Lu Weimin and Zhang Chengcheng make every effort to reorganize all the troops according to this formation.

The M2 60mm mortar weighs only 19 kilograms, has a firing range of more than 1,800 meters, and a horse can carry both mortars and some shells, and can move quickly. The M1 81mm mortar, weighing only 60 kilograms, is very easy to carry on a horse after disassembly, and with a horse specially carrying shells, soldiers can also carry some shells, with a range of more than 3,000 meters, as a battalion-level support firepower is enough, mainly to move quickly, especially in Kalimantan, a region with backward transportation.

This configuration was not ready to change in the previous life of World War I, and it was too troublesome to reorganize the troops once.

For the navy, after communicating with Li Zhaoshui, it was decided to buy 10 U-shaped submarines first, as a wolf pack squad, this time the U-21 type was chosen, this submarine is a heroic idol in history, has created a brilliant record, and the submarine uses a diesel generator set, no longer emits black smoke when charging, and the range is 9000 nautical miles, which can fully meet the needs. Coupled with the destroyers and fast torpedo boats in the Capuas River, it is believed that the Dutch fleet will not take advantage of it.

Although Zhang Wei would like to buy a few battlecruisers or super dreadnoughts, there is no military port to park if he buys it now.

Li Zhaoshui reminded: "Young master, although Pontianak is not suitable for building a large military port, the river here is wide and deep, and warships can still enter, so we must be on guard, and at the same time we must transfer some speedboats to use as our means of transportation, and at the same time help maintain law and order." ”

"Then all the submarine units will be transferred to the Pontianak Estuary to defend and wait for the enemy, and the other surface ships will be divided into three, stationed at the mouth of the Kapuas River, the Pontianak Estuary, and the outer waters of the Shankou Ocean, and in the towns inland of the Kapuas River, only a small runabout will be left to maintain law and order."

"Young master, I feel that the military uniform also needs to be changed, now the security guards in the manor are wearing Beiyang military uniforms, and the soldiers on duty in Shokos Town and the Kapuas River are wearing indigenous clothes, this time we are officially unveiled, we must not wear the same clothes again, or it will be easy for outsiders to connect us, so I suggest changing clothes."

"Are there any good style options?"

"I think the SS uniforms are good."

"But it's too hot for us here, so it's not appropriate."

"Just choose summer clothes."

"Okay, take your suggestion and change all of them, but these Beiyang military uniforms have been collected, and they will be aided to the country in the future, the country is still very poor."

"Yes, young master"

On December 5, Zhang Wei and others arrived in Shokos Town, and the nine battalions in charge of Zhang Cheng all received telegrams in advance and rushed back, and the 1st Regiment stationed in Sangao Town also returned to Shokos Town, and the troops only left one platoon in each town to garrison.

First of all, these units were reorganized, changing uniforms, weapons, and artillery were added to form the first division of the Lanfang People's Army. Since Zhang Cheng will be in charge of the entire West Kalimantan province in the future, the commander of the 1st Division is now synthesized, and his name is Li Mengran.

Lu Weimin's order to the 1st Division was to start an attack on Yamaguchi Yang on the 10th, take it on the same day, and then send 1 regiment to occupy Sanfa County. Since the operation launched on the Pontianak side was launched at 3 a.m. on December 10, the 1st Division could start from Mandol at 0:00 a.m. on the 10th and run 60 kilometers to take the Yamaguchi Ocean on the same day.

Zhang Wei left enough baggage for the troops to sit down and prepare for departure, and by December 10, the troops were to assemble in the town of Mandor and attack the mountain pass at any time.
