Although Li Zhigao's unit has a large number of people and advanced weapons, it has many problems in its establishment.

Earlier, because of the high illiteracy rate and the relatively small number of Li Zhigao's troops, they adopted a simple five-ten-person system, that is, one squad of 10 people, one platoon of 50 people, and one company of five platoons. As a result, the command flexibility of grassroots cadres will be reduced, and they will be more rigid in combat, and they will be more suitable for a single branch of the armed forces, such as the establishment of all-rifle troops, and not very suitable for multi-weapon combat such as coordinated infantry and artillery.

In the past, in Li Zhigao's first operation, that is, in the battle to eliminate the patrol battalion, there were similar problems of ineffective command and relatively weak control of grassroots cadres, but after that, Li Zhigao's most urgent thing was to consolidate the fruits of victory, and in addition, the number of qualified grassroots officers was too small, and he did not dare to immediately rectify and reform the troops, otherwise it would easily cause chaos.

However, up to now, Li Zhigao has established a military academy and has trained many hardcore grassroots officers, although the number is still relatively small, but if it is scattered to rectify the troop establishment, it will be no problem, and this military parade has made him even more reassured, feeling that there will be no problem in rectification.

The new reorganization plan is mainly to determine the new establishment, and specifically, to continue to implement the three-three system in the army.

There is a reason why the three-three system has been able to flourish in the army in the future, and this system first originated from the British general Sir Hamilton, who based on the history of military organization, came to the conclusion that he believed that the range of management should be between three and six.

According to his theory, managing three people under his command would keep one officer quite busy, while directly managing six people would have to work ten hours a day. "The closer we get to the supreme commander of the whole organization, the more we should work in groups of three," he argued, "and the closer we get to the grassroots (infantry) of the whole organization, the more we should work in groups of six."

Since then, the three-three system has become popular, and has become the mainstream of the army since then, said that the World War II had a four-four system, which proved to be too rigid, only because of the weak China, did not reveal too many loopholes.

In short, according to Li Zhigao's new plan, an ordinary squad is divided into 12 people, including eight full-fledged riflemen, two snipers, and two light machine gunners, among whom there is a squad leader and a deputy squad leader.

Such an infantry squad can be a joint assault of the whole squad during the operation, or it can be subdivided into two combat groups, each of which has four riflemen, a sniper and a machine gunner, and the squad leader or deputy squad leader is generally a rifleman, and can also choose to use a Stirling submachine gun, and when fighting, each person will be equipped with five grenades.

Among them, the so-called machine gunners, in fact, intended to use Bren light machine guns, but the caliber became 7.62 mm, using the same 7.62 * 39 mm bullets as AKM and medium rifle rounds, in terms of power, although the range is not too far, but within 600 meters can form a fire network, which is enough.

This machine gun is used because the parts of this machine gun are easy to produce, and the power is also good, although there is no bullet chain, the staying power of the firepower is not good, even worse than the AK, but it is easy to produce itself, as far as the current main domestic troops are concerned, it is more than enough, no matter how high the firepower is, for example, if you make MG42, it is a pure waste.

The sniper, in fact, still uses a formal rifle, but will be equipped with a 4x optical sight produced by itself, which is not equipped by the powers at this time, with this optical aiming lens, accurate shooting can continue to within 800 meters, and the actual effective sniper distance is only 600 meters.

The grenade is an ordinary defensive melon grenade, not an offensive grenade, this is to reduce weight, and each soldier will be equipped with a self-produced M1911 pistol, of course, because it is now 1910, the famous M1911 pistol has not yet appeared, so this pistol will be called the CH1910 pistol in the future, but in terms of design, it is almost exactly the same as the M1911, the only difference is that the caliber is different, not the use point 45 caliber, Instead, 9 mm caliber ammunition is used.

The reason for using 9 mm ammunition is because the recoil of this ammunition is smaller, the shooting is more accurate, and it is more suitable for the Chinese people, in fact, on the battlefield, it really reaches the point of using a pistol, it is often very urgent, and the caliber is too large, and it is not necessary, but if the recoil is too large, it is easy to hurt your wrist in an emergency, in contrast, the close-range stopping effect of the nine-mm bullet is stronger, and the weight is also light, which is more suitable for emergency close-range combat, so the M1911 with a 9 mm bullet, no, it is a CH1910 pistol.

It can be said that with the CH1910 pistol, the history of fighting bayonets in close combat can basically be eliminated, and the most suitable soldier for himself can be more than enough.

In short, Li Zhigao attaches great importance to the assault force of the infantry squad, after all, a squad is a basic combat unit, and the sum of such three ordinary squads forms an assault platoon, plus the platoon commander and deputy platoon commander, a platoon has a total of 38 people, of which the platoon commander and deputy platoon commander generally recommend the use of Stirling submachine guns. Why use Stirling, it goes without saying, because the Stirling submachine gun is simple in structure, accurate surname, etc., and the use of universal 9mm pistol cartridges can also reduce logistical pressure.

As for the infantry company, in Li Zhigao's impression, it is a basic reading combat unit, so it will have three ordinary assault platoons and one more firepower platoon.

The fire platoon has three fire squads, each with 15 people, one of which is equipped with two 70 mm 92 infantry guns, so that three squads are equipped with six Type 92 infantry guns.

Because of the use of military alloy steel pipes in the sixties, coupled with the use of new tires instead of steel wheels, some lightweight design, so the new 92 infantry gun is lighter, only 186 kg, but the maximum firing range has reached 3025 meters, which can be said to be more than 200 meters more than the original, and there are more types of shells, including armor-piercing shells, grenades, and incendiary bombs, and the charge is also larger, and the charge is also B explosive, and the power is naturally greater.

That is to say, a firepower platoon has three firepower squads, plus the platoon commander and two deputy platoon commanders, a total of 48 people, equipped with 6 new 92 infantry guns, in terms of company-level support firepower, it is completely sufficient, but in actual combat, if such a company wants to fight alone, it must add a horse-pulling and baggage squad to transport ammunition, otherwise it is really not enough to consume.

In addition to the addition of a fire platoon, a basic infantry company also needs to have a cooking squad of 12 people, a division officer, a signal corpsman, an instructor, plus the company commander and two deputy company commanders, a company has a total of 180 people, and if you add the baggage class, it will exceed 200 people.

Two infantry companies, plus a firepower reinforcement company, plus a baggage platoon, were a battalion, with a total number of 1,200 to 1,500 men, depending on the situation, of which the heavy fire company would be equipped with nine Type 56 85mm cannons purchased from modern China, towed entirely by trucks, and could also be pulled by Soviet heavy horses.

The three battalions plus one heavy firepower battalion are a regiment, and the heavy firepower battalion is currently only a framework, and it is not yet equipped with heavy artillery, but the heavy artillery that Li Zhigao plans to equip is 144 59-1 Type 130 mm towed cannon howitzers purchased from China from South Africa in the name of Harrison.

At that time, a heavy fire battalion has 1,200 people, will be equipped with 24 130 mm cannon howitzers, more than 1,000 people serving 24 guns, plus modern artillery sighting system, it should be completely sufficient, the reason why so many people are taken is to enhance the artillery battalion's reading combat ability, there are many people who act as guards, and light weapons are very sufficient, for example, a heavy artillery battalion has 24 machine guns alone, 60 Stirling submachine guns, and others will also be equipped with CH1910 pistols and Zhongzheng rifles as standard. Moreover, this kind of artillery usually has to be towed by trucks of later generations, and it is not impossible to rely on the Soviet heavy horses, but it is too difficult and will slow down the power of the machine, so this kind of heavy fire battalion, in Li Zhigao's vision, is to form a motorized artillery battalion, all of which are towed and transported by trucks.

For example, when the Kuomintang Army was reorganized in 1946, an artillery regiment equipped with 36 mountain artillery guns had a quota of only 2,000 people, and although Li Zhigao's 1,200 people only had 24 guns, he was a 130 mm caliber heavy artillery, not a mountain artillery, so he was purely playing with firepower, and he had a great demand for logistics. Otherwise, one logistics alone will be crushed.

You must know that according to Li Zhigao's establishment, if a regiment has this kind of firepower, then a division and three regiments will not have three such reinforced artillery battalions? In this way, a division must have at least 72 Type 59-1 130-mm heavy guns, and it is also a large motorized artillery battalion capable of reading and fighting.

In addition, although Li Zhigao will buy 85 mm guns and 130 mm guns from modern society for the time being, this is only temporary, and a full set of drawings for these two guns has also been obtained, and he can make his own arsenal produce them in the future.

That is to say, a battalion is fully equipped, and at least it should be about 4,800 people, but there is no heavy artillery battalion at present, and it is only three ordinary infantry battalions for the time being, that is to say, a regiment should be between 3,800 and 4,200 people for the time being, and the basic establishment is 3,800 people. Of course, for Li Zhigao, it is best to use a truck, which is actually easier to obtain and more capable than pulling a horse, but the fuel requirements are relatively high, but such a car team can only play by himself, after all, he has a ring. As for the horse, he is actually more to train the horse-pulling team, and establish a horse-pulling division system in advance, after all, he can play with car motorization, others can not play, especially the current traffic conditions, or the most reliable horse.

Three regiments and one division, one division has a full strength of 12,000 men, and since the 130-mm heavy artillery has a long firing range and is also very powerful, it is not planned to set up another divisional heavy artillery for the time being. When the time comes, there will be the new 92 infantry guns, Type 56 85 mm guns plus Type 59-1 130 mm guns, and there should be no problem in terms of firepower configuration, as long as logistics keep up, it can go sideways in this era.

However, at present, Li Zhigao's main force does not have so much, and there are only 8,000 troops at full capacity, so he can only recruit some new recruits to join the main force to expand to the main division of 12,000 people.

That is to say, after reorganization, Li Zhi's command should have a main motorized division with 12,000 men, plus a reserve division of 18,000 first-class mobilized troops. One-third of the soldiers in the reserve division are women, and the reserve division is temporarily only equipped with self-produced 92 infantry guns and 90 mm mortars at the regimental level in terms of heavy firepower, and the self-produced Bren machine guns are only equipped at the battalion level, so they belong to the light infantry division, this kind of light infantry division, all of which will use their own weapons, and there are no cars, only some horses, and a horse division.

In addition to these ordinary troops, Li Zhigao also expanded the SS troops, especially set up a battalion of SS troops, all of which were young people between the ages of 18 and 25, all of whom joined the reserve party members, and the function of this SS was to play the role of the armed police force and the gendarmerie, which was used to maintain good local law and order and the security of the army.

As for the special forces, they will not be adjusted for the time being, they are still the same.

It is conceivable that this large-scale reorganization process is quite cumbersome, and it is easy to say that weapons and equipment and the recruitment of new recruits can be taken slowly, but the training of grassroots cadres is quite troublesome, after all, the illiteracy rate is too high, and it takes time to train a qualified grassroots cadre, plus other technical arms, such as artillery and baggage soldiers, and all soldiers must also carry out literacy study.

In short, Li Zhigao's main energy is now devoted to army building, and most of his time is spent on teaching at military academies.

In order to make the troops combat effective as soon as possible, his more than 500 cadets were also divided into two groups, each wave of about 250 people, all of whom spent only half of the day attending classes at the military academy, and the other half of the time had to go down to the unit to personally train the soldiers under them, perhaps in the morning to study, in the afternoon to train their subordinates, or in the morning to train soldiers, and in the afternoon to go to class, and so on.

That is to say, from the very beginning, this batch of military cadets was not just as simple as students, they were directly appointed by Li Zhigao as commanders at all levels of the troops, and the entire main division of 12,000 people, plus the reserve division of 18,000 people, plus the SS battalion and the special forces, and many other units, basically relied on these more than 500 cadets to sustain themselves; of course, two-thirds of these 500 cadets were reserve party members, and the remaining one-third became official party members one after another.

Specifically, in the troops, it is necessary to ensure that at the company level, there is at least one deputy company commander of the reserve party member and one instructor of the reserve party member, and in a company, there must be at least three reserve party members, and a party branch of at least three people should be established, which is the so-called branch building on the company. The reason for this is to enable the Glorious Party to firmly grasp the control and command of the army, form a pattern in which the party commands the gun, and form a system from then on.

As for Yin Ruizhi, Li Zhigao originally wanted her to go to a girls' school as a teacher, but she was unwilling, but chose to join the Taiping Military Academy to study, and relied on her excellent academic performance, passed the Zhengda bright exam, competed for the post, and became a battalion commander among the female soldiers, in charge of 1,200 female reserve soldiers.

In order to be able to concentrate on military affairs, Li Zhigao specially recruited Liu Runsheng back and put him in charge of the civil affairs of the Taiping Mansion. At this time, it happened that the Taiping Mansion was engaged in self-government, so Liu Runsheng became the chairman of the Taiping Mansion Advisory Bureau, and he could directly mobilize the police forces in the Taiping Mansion, so his authority increased greatly. Today's Liu Runsheng, at least in terms of civil affairs, is already the de facto second-in-command of the Taiping Mansion, and his power is only below Li Zhigao, but it is higher than that of the Wang Governor's Mansion.

Not to mention, Li Zhigao found that since he handed over the civil aspect to Liu Runsheng, he suddenly became a lot easier, he used to have to take care of the people's livelihood, he had to travel between the county town and the military camp, wasting time, not to mention, he also made him one head and two big, now he can always be in the barracks, either go to the military academy to teach, or go to the industrial zone to guide the work, by the way, frequent back and forth to dump materials, although still busy, but smoother than in the past, as for the Taiping Academy, it is also handed over to Liu Runsheng to be responsible, he only provides teaching materials, money and medicine, no longer going to teach.

For example, in early August, heavy rain fell near Taiping Mansion, and several villages were flooded, but Liu Runsheng allocated materials in time and suspended the construction of the wharf at Ma'anshan Port, so that more than 20,000 workers collectively helped with disaster relief, everything was done in an orderly manner, and all the credit was given to Li Zhigao, which immediately reflected Liu Runsheng's organizational ability and impressed Li Zhigao.

In short, the hot summer has been spent in a lot of disturbances and busyness, I don't know why, although Yin Ruizhi kept sending telegrams and writing letters, but the people from the Liberation Society at the headquarters of the Liberation Society have not come to contact, so that Li Zhigao himself has lost his surname. I waited until the end of November, when winter had already begun, and Li Zhigao's long-awaited members of the Liberation Association finally came!;
