The so-called compilation, of course, cannot be something that is set in stone.

After all, the forms on the battlefield are ever-changing, and if they remain unchanged, it is difficult to say whether there will be any problems. For example, if Division B is a division, brigade and three regiments, then if necessary, it can be turned into one brigade and five regiments or more troops―――――― provided that the war situation requires.

Of course, a division and a division of the C can also be used, but...

After all, the C division is similar to the B division, except that the command unit of the infantry brigade is missing, and there are no artillery regiments and armored regiments and other units, but only one mortar regiment for the command of the division headquarters, so that the entire division has about four regiments. Similarly, because the number of troops that need to be commanded is very small, and the pressure to command is very light―――――― this is also the relationship between the C division will cancel the establishment of the infantry brigade, after all, if there are only three infantry regiments plus an artillery running regiment, and even if there is probably no mortar if necessary, a single division headquarters can already command it.

In contrast, in addition to infantry, Division B also has armored and artillery arms, and it is more in line with the requirements to set up an infantry brigade to command the infantry.

The problem lies in the A division, theoretically speaking, the A division can also add a few more infantry regiments and even infantry brigades, but in fact, when it already has such an establishment as three brigades and nine regiments, it seems that there is no need to continue to add them in ordinary battles.

After all, if it's really calculated by the standard. The size of a main division with three brigades and nine regiments is already about the same as that of an ordinary army. It is difficult to say exactly what kind of battle Cheng dù fought and needed to add troops to the main force of this kind of Cheng dù...

In addition, the above situation has been explained. The establishment of troops and so on will never remain static, after all, war itself is sometimes a kind of whimsical thing.

However, if there is a unified standard, it will always be more convenient to command.

In particular, logistical difficulties can be reduced.

After all, if the establishment is too complicated and chaotic, it will definitely affect the efficiency of logistics.

Anyway. The evolution from the four directions to the three or three has always been a trend, which is why the above ones are all of the same. It is likely that it will become a standard in China in the future.

The only question that needs to be considered now is probably how much the number of the army needs to be retained after the change to the three-three system. Is it still more than 2 million at this stage? Or is it decreasing and increasing?

Jiang Baili felt that maintaining the status quo or reducing it should be the most likely, after all, if it was increased―――――― the Ministry of Finance would have long had a big opinion on spending so much military spending every year. If it's an expansion of the army. It is not easy to get the consent of the government.

In addition to this, since it was decided to reduce the size of the main forces, and at the same time distribute the main forces according to the importance of each military district. Then the number of main forces in each military division has become the most important thing.

There is no doubt that the number of important military regions will definitely be larger, but what exactly is called critical, we must think about this.

First of all. The Beijing Military Region and the Urals, Astana, and Shenyang Military Regions are certainly important, but what about the other military regions? For example, the Nanjing Military Region, etc. From a certain point of view, it is also very important, after all, if the Yangtze River waterway is washed in, then the situation can be dangerous―――――― although this situation is not likely to happen, but it is something that must not be ignored...

In this way, how to distribute these main forces has become a very complicated matter.

However, at the moment, these are not what Jiang Baili and they need to consider, after all, converting the existing military system into the three-three system is definitely not an overnight thing, let alone something that can be decided in a short period of time. After all, this is a major event related to the Chinese Army for a long time to come, and we cannot but consider it carefully.

Moreover, even if the military system is changed, it will not be possible to change it all at once, but it will have to be done slowly little by little.

――――――――――――――――――――

After listening to Jiang Baili's words, Yan Shao nodded slowly, already having some agreement in his heart.

What Jiang Baili just said is at least more reasonable on the surface, but as for the actual situation, this is not something he can judge in a short time. After all, he is not a real soldier after all, and he does not know much about military affairs.

But there is one thing he is still very clear, that is, for a long time in the future, the three-three system will be the mainstream―――――― at least he still remembers this clearly, and it is precisely like this, so on this issue of military reform, Yan Shao will always stand on the side of the reformists.

"Speaking of which, what is the reason the president called me here?" Seeing Yan Shao pondering there, Jiang Baili asked softly on the side after waiting for a while. At the same time, he looked at Yan Shao, guessing in his heart what was the matter with him calling himself.

"Oh, that's it..."In order to settle the outside controversy about the term of office, of course Yan Shao would not say this kind of thing to Jiang Baili. Fortunately, before Jiang Baili came, Yan Shao had already thought about what to say, so he quickly spoke. "At present, the conflict with the Japanese in the Yalu River has been fought for more than half a year, and it has caused heavy losses to the Japanese, but our losses are not small, and almost the entire Dandong has been beaten into ruins, plus casualties and other losses......... Recently, public opinion in society and even within the government have some opinions on this, feeling that the matter on the other side of the Yalu River should not be dragged on, and it is best to solve it as soon as possible, so that we can get out of this small quagmire and strive to develop the domestic economy, and I am also very much in favor of this, so I came here this time to ask your attitude..."

At present, there are many generals in China who can fight, such as Cai Yi, Jiang Baili, Feng Guozhang and even Wu Peifu, but there are relatively few who are still in Beijing. Among them, the most outstanding command ability is undoubtedly Jiang Baili. Now that Yan Shao is planning to do it, he naturally needs to listen to Jiang Baili's opinion.

"Solve the problem of the Japanese on the other side of the Yalu River..."Jiang Baili obviously didn't expect Yan Shao to actually plan to discuss this matter with him, so he was stunned for a moment after hearing Yan Shao's words. However, he had also thought about this matter, so he would not be caught off guard, so he quickly spoke. "At the beginning, we were able to drive the Japanese out of Dandong lightly, just to drag the other side, or even drag the other party to death, so we never did it. Now this battle has been fought for more than half a year, and in terms of time, it is indeed not short. The most important thing is that now that the European competition has just ended, we are really recuperating. The best time to develop the domestic economy is indeed not easy to waste resources on the battlefield for a long time, so I am in favor of doing this, but it is just how to do it..."

Speaking of which. Jiang Baili glanced at Yan Shao.

"Now the most critical. It still depends on the president, your intentions. If we only want to beat the Japanese out of Dandong and then withdraw the troops stranded in Korea on the other side of the Yalu River, it is undoubtedly a very simple matter, but if we do this, we will inevitably lose the upper hand in the negotiations when this conflict is resolved in the future, and I am afraid that the matter of compensation will not be easy to discuss. ”

It is not surprising that this world is not a world of justice and justice in the first place. There is only one thing that a qiē looks at, and that is strength. Now don't look at the fact that the Japanese have indeed hit the territory of China. Even half of China's cities are still relatively important, but in fact, a large part of the border between China and North Korea is now under Chinese occupation, and many towns are even within the range of Chinese army artillery.

In addition, the Wehrmacht never wanted to drive the Japanese away in Danton, and sometimes even if they could, they would not do so. In Korea, however, they did not take the initiative to attack, but waited for the Japanese to come to the door on their own initiative, and then used the superiority in weapons such as artillery and machine guns to kill and injure a large number of the enemy's living forces...

Today, even the Western powers, which are more inclined to Japan, have to admit that it is the Chinese who have the upper hand in this conflict.

This is also the reason why the great powers have been trying to mediate this war, after all, for many reasons, Britain and the United States and other countries have become very wary of China.

The problem is that because of the European war, the strength of Britain and France has been hit hard, and the only one who has the ability to contain China is the United States, but the isolationism of the United States is very strict. In order to solve a weakened Spain, it was a variety of means to get a legitimate reason for war against Spain.

The attack on Germany was also because Germany first sank an American cruise ship, and then sent a telegram to the Mexicans, hoping to unite Mexico against the United States, so that the United States had a reason to deal with Germany.

At the moment, China's relationship with the United States is good, although not as good as its relationship with France, but it is much stronger than that of the United States. The most important thing is that China has not taken the initiative to provoke the United States, and it is difficult to say what threat it can pose to the United States across the Pacific Ocean.

So if you want to contain China, Japan, a power in the Far East, will become a deck of cards in the hands of the great powers.

――――――――――――――――――――

In this war, Japan can be said to have gained many benefits, but it was able to fight with China on the Sino-North Korean border for more than half a year. In addition to these benefits, there is also the support of Britain and the United States, and if it were not for the support given to Japan by Britain and the United States in many ways, even if Japan could hold on to the present, it would not be as easy as it is now.

Therefore, as far as Britain and the United States are concerned, they absolutely do not want Japan to be weakened excessively.

Now that China has the upper hand on the battlefield, it is only natural that they will find a way to end the conflict. It's just that the Japanese don't understand their good intentions, even if they have fallen into the disadvantage on the battlefield, but they still insist on competing with the Chinese, so that the British and Americans don't know how many times they scolded the Japanese in their hearts.

It's just that the Japanese really don't know the good intentions of Britain and the United States? Perhaps the reason why they have persisted and refused to stop is simply because of their fragile faith.

If the Japanese are a little bit in other respects, then in terms of psychology, the Japanese are a little vulnerable. Originally, in the face of China, a behemoth for thousands of years, the Japanese who finally stepped on each other's heads were proud of the spring breeze. As a result, their mood has not been maintained for many years, and everything has changed as soon as they become qiē, which makes them how can they accept it...

In addition, there are still large areas of the country being occupied by the Chinese. Naturally, they are unlikely to bow their heads first.

However, the support of Britain and the United States for them is indeed very important, otherwise on their own, even if they can persevere, I am afraid they will have to hurt some vitality, how can it be as easy as now.

And this. It is also one of the reasons why Jiang Baili tends to stop, after all, when there is already the support of Britain and the United States, he wants to be like the original plan. It was already difficult to deal a heavy blow to Japan. On the contrary, the longer it drags on, the more it will do it to China, and in that case, it is better to solve this matter as soon as possible.

It's just a question of how to get ahead of the curve. After all, if China takes the initiative to give up its advantages at this stage. The Japanese will certainly not understand China's good intentions, but they are even less likely to make concessions on compensation and other aspects, and with Jiang Baili's understanding of the Japanese, perhaps the other side will gain an inch instead.

There are also Britain and the United States, the reason why they want to mediate the war is to prevent Japan from suffering too much loss, which will affect their strategy of containing China. But if China voluntarily relinquishes its superiority, they don't mind siding with Japan if necessary.

To know for Britain and the United States. Today, China has grown into a more threatening adversary than Japan.

Especially considering that places like Myanmar, India, etc., are right under China's nose. After the previous Chinese table xiàn also made people perceive its ambitions...

――――――――――――――――――――――――

"It's IA." Hearing Jiang Baili's words, he sighed, and then had to admit that Jiang Baili was right. If the army is withdrawn like this, nothing else, at least Dandong's losses will not be taken back.

But it's not the same thing to keep fighting, so...

"That's why I want to ask you, if we are serious now, is it possible to bring the Japanese to their knees in Korea..."

And this remark also shows Yan Shao's attitude, that is, he is not satisfied with just ending the war.

"Are you serious?" Hearing Yan Shao's words, Jiang Baili did not answer immediately, but closed his eyes and pondered for a moment before speaking. It shouldn't be too much of a problem, but if you really want to do this, you have to start preparing as much as possible, otherwise it will be very troublesome to wait until winter comes..."

It's autumn, winter is not very far away, and the climate is getting colder, especially in North Korea and other regions. Since Yan Shao said what he just said, it has already proved that he is inclined to attack, so if he waits until the snow falls before attacking...

Even if we win, I'm afraid the Wehrmacht will have to suffer a little.

After all, at that time, they will be the attacker, and the Japanese will be the defensive side.

"As soon as possible..."Hearing Jiang Baili say this, Yan Shao bowed slightly.

"That's right." Then Jiang Baili continued. "In addition, it is also necessary to increase the number of troops in the Shenyang Military Region, the current strength of the Shenyang Military Region is not very large, and the total number is equal to the Japanese, if you want to win a big victory, it is definitely not a simple matter, you must increase the number of troops..."

"It's easy." Yan Shao chuckled. "The places where the war will be fought now are only the three places in Northeast China, the Urals, and Central Asia, and these three places are counted, but the troops in other regions are very abundant, and I can completely send hundreds of thousands of troops from Beijing, Shandong, and Vladivostok to reinforce them to ensure the victory of this operation..." This battle is very important to me, so ......... Only win, not defeat..."

If he wins, everyone will be happy, but if he loses, then he will probably become a laughing stock.

"Please rest assured by that." Jiang Baili said with a smile. "Whether it is in military affairs or other aspects, we already have many advantages over Japan, even if Japan now has the support of Britain and the United States, but at the moment we and Britain and the United States have not officially turned their faces, and they will not be able to do things too blatantly, so as long as the command is right, it is still very easy to win. Of course, this means that we can gain a certain advantage before winter comes, and if it is not like that, then this battle will be more difficult to fight, so I suggest that it is better to wait until next spring to do it, so that our advantage can be greater, and we don't have to worry about the troubles of winter..."

"Can't wait until that time..."Although he knew that what Jiang Baili said was a good doctrine, it was a little difficult to make Yan Shao wait for a few more months. After all, public opinion in the country has already begun to flood, and if we really have to wait a few more months, no one can guarantee what the public opinion will be like by then, so the best way is to deal with the Japanese as soon as possible.

Moreover, even with the threat of winter, Yan Shao did not feel that it would affect this victory.

Yes, both the French and the Germans have been pitted by the cold winter of Russia in history, but Korea is not Russian, and the Japanese are not Russians.

The most important thing is that although Eastern Europe had a cold winter at that time, it also had a long logistics line, and North Korea was at Yan Shao's doorstep... (To be continued......)
