"Brother......

Chiang Ching-kuo's voice was a little choked.

"Okay, okay, I know your difficulties, and I won't make you feel embarrassed." Wu Ming nodded at Jiang Jingguo: "Jianfeng, your place has been arranged, right?" ”

"Commissioner of the Gannan Administration and Security Commander!" Chiang Ching-kuo said truthfully.

"Gannan? I'm pretty familiar with that...... Two years ago, when I was fighting against Liangguang, I spent a few months in Gannan. Gannan Administration under the jurisdiction of Ganxian County, Nankang, Xinfeng and other eleven counties, the territory is larger than Quzhou, the perennial war has made the people's livelihood there wither, but there is rich in products, the output of tungsten ore ranks first in the country, and the development potential is quite large! ”

"Over the past two years, the Maoliangwu Chamber of Commerce and the Gandong Chamber of Commerce have set up material procurement points in various counties and towns in southern Gansu, and the agricultural and sideline products, mountain goods and tungsten iron copper and other ores produced in southern Gannan have continuously flowed into Maoliangwu.

In addition, as the Sino-Japanese war intensified, the northern and central parts of Jiangxi would inevitably be targeted by the Japanese, and it was only a matter of time before Jiujiang and the surrounding areas of Nanchang fell, and the status of southern Jiangxi, surrounded by mountains, would increase dramatically...... However, it is precisely because Gannan is located in a remote area, the so-called Tiangao Emperor is far away, and there are many local tyrants and inferior gentry who form a village to protect themselves, and if the virtuous brother wants to control the overall situation calmly, he must have enough strength. ”

"Jianfeng, if you need help, you can call me, and I will send someone to support you. In addition, my friend Liu Rulin and sworn brother Tian Zhenggang serve as the major general and chief of staff of the Jiangxi Security Department respectively, if there is anything you can contact them, they will definitely help! ”

Speaking of which, Wu Ming briefly introduced Liu Rulin and Tian Zhenggang to Chiang Ching-kuo.

"Brother Xie Xie cares!" Chiang Ching-kuo said gratefully.

"The people of southern Gannan have been fierce since ancient times, coupled with years of war, there are many civilian guns, and the public security situation is not ideal!" Wu Ming thought for a while and said, "Jianfeng, when you take office, I'll give you a gift!" ”

"Brother Xie Lu, Brother Xie! During the time I worked in the New Second Army, I was taken care of by my brother too much, and my family was very happy here! Jiang Jingguo grabbed Wu Ming's hand and said with emotion:

"When I first came here, I was unknown, and it was thanks to my brother's promotion that I had room to show my talents. Now that more than half a year has passed, I am already a **** major general, and I have also laid a good foundation for politics. Brother, thank you for your great kindness, if your brother has any difficulties in the future, please open your mouth to Jianfeng! ”

"Where, where...... If it weren't for Jianfeng's excellent organizational skills and various propaganda methods, how could our New Second Army let so many aspiring young people enthusiastically sign up to join the army? In the past month, there have been more than 500 overseas Chinese children from Nanyang alone, and they have knowledge and culture, which has greatly made up for our lack of talents! Seriously, I can't bear to let you go! Wu Ming shook his head and sighed: "Phoenix Radio Station has no leader of the virtuous brother, I don't know what to do in the future!" ”

"Brother, you have won the award, if you hadn't given me the power, even if I had the ability, it would be useless. Besides, you can meet all the human, material, and financial resources required for publicity, and even if you change people to do it, as long as the personnel, equipment, and funds are fully guaranteed, you can do it to the point where I am. ”

Jiang Jingguo looked at Wu Ming gratefully: "I can only say that the military seat has ideas and courage, has the courage to do things and can fully trust his subordinates, the so-called soldier dies for his confidant, you trust me so much, if I don't make some achievements, then I will be ashamed of the military seat." ”

While the two were talking, Mao Fumei and Jiang Fangliang walked out of the house with their children, and Zhou Zhongyuan, the chief of the guard, saw that it was not early, and asked Jiang Jingguo to leave so that he could rush to Quzhou Railway Station as soon as possible.

"Brother, take your leave!"

Jiang Jingguo bowed his hand to Wu Ming, nodded to Long Shaogang, and got into the car with his family. Chiang Ching-kuo's driver, Mao Ningshao, slowly started the car and drove away with two troop carriers and a truck loaded with luggage and furniture.

Looking at the car in the distance, Wu Ming sighed lightly, turned to Long Shaogang and asked, "Old Long, what do you think of Lao Jiang and Xiao Jiang?" ”

"This ...... In the past, I did not study this much, but after careful consideration in the past few days, I have some vague views: Chairman Chiang is the supreme leader of the party-state, and he pays attention to the face of his No. 1 leader everywhere, and acts with scruples about his identity and influence. Whether it is administering the army or engaging in politics, Chairman Chiang likes to play a balance and always uses political means to solve military problems, so his attitude is unpredictable! ”

Long Shaogang continued: "Chiang Ching-kuo is different, more than ten years of experience in the Soviet Union, especially the thrilling during the purge, let him develop a cautious character, at the same time, civilian life is deeply imprinted in his bones, with the political outlook of middle and low-level people in society, and can often reflect on himself. I believe that as long as Chairman Chiang retains his current status and status, Jingguo is likely to succeed him in the future......"

Wu Ming sighed slightly: "Jiang Jingguo is indeed good, but it's a pity that he must rely on Lao Jiang unconditionally now and can't make his own voice, otherwise our life is much better now...... I think Chiang Kai-shek loves and hates us now! ”

"I think it's hateful and afraid!"

Long Shaogang joked with a smile, and then said: "Okay, let's not talk about their father and son, Junzao, how will our training be carried out next?" Although due to the existence of the Maoliangwu militia regiment, our three main divisions will soon be fully manned, the training of the militia and militia as reserves cannot be relaxed in the slightest. ”

"Secondly, we have gathered a large number of defeated soldiers with combat experience, although these veterans have seen blood and have a certain combat effectiveness, but many of them have the bad habits of the previous troops, and some of them rely on their own skills to disobey orders. In addition, with the expansion of the troops, there is still a big gap in the technical arms and outstanding officers! The most difficult thing is that there are some problems with the logistics support in Dongning, and the new second division has not been replaced so far! ”

"The reason why the new second division didn't change its outfit is that it's waiting for my order!"

Wu Ming patiently explained: "The newly formed army divisions in Japan will soon be put into the Chinese battlefield, and there is not much time left for us...... In order to improve the quality of training of the troops, I feel that it is necessary to implement a training system of the nature of rewards and punishments for the main regiments below. ”

"A system of rewards and punishments?" Long Shaogang was a little confused.

"Yes!"

Wu Ming and Long Shaogang walked side by side, introducing their ideas to him as they walked.

In fact, it is quite simple to say, each main regiment of the new 2nd Division and the new 3rd Division will conduct additional training on the basis of the training program issued by the military headquarters in accordance with the actual conditions of their own troops, and every once in a while, the military headquarters will organize internal confrontations, and the regiments that have won the victory will have priority in weaponry, logistical supplies, and the selection of soldiers, and so on, and those regiments that have failed can only pick up the leftovers of others.

If a certain main regiment falls behind several times in a row, the whole regiment will be transferred to an independent division and separated from the position of the main force on the front line. Correspondingly, the regiment with the most wins in each assessment of the independent division will be promoted to the main regiment, and the regiment at the bottom will be transferred to the militia regiment.

"Ah...... In this way, the enthusiasm of the main regiments for training can be greatly stimulated, which is a good idea! Long Shaogang blurted out, but after thinking about it, his brows furrowed again: "However, if you do this, isn't it too cruel?" ”

"We are soldiers, and it is normal to sweat and bleed. Now the training is more brutal, and in the future, when the soldiers go to the battlefield, there will be fewer deaths! ”

Wu Ming's face was solemn: "Of course, we must do a good job in the ideological work of commanders at all levels, so that the soldiers can have the enterprising spirit of not being afraid of hardship or tiredness." How to implement it, we will discuss it carefully after we return to the military headquarters......"

######

When Wu Ming and Long Shaogang returned to the Phoenix Mountain base, the welcome banquet of the new Third Division had ended, and seeing that several division commanders were there, Wu Ming immediately decided to convene a meeting of officers at and above the division level of the whole army.

As soon as the meeting began, Wu Ming said his ideas, which were immediately unanimously recognized by everyone.

Luo Yuming, commander of the new Second Division, clapped his hands and said loudly: "I believe in the quality of our officers and men, even if the commanders of various departments do not supervise them, they will consciously strengthen training. In my opinion, we can give those soldiers who have performed well with material rewards, ranks, honors, etc. ”

"Yes, that's exactly how it should be." Wu Ming nodded in agreement.

"Junza, I'm a little worried!" Zhang Dongning, chief of staff of the army, expressed a different opinion, saying: "Will the introduction of such competition in the whole army make people feel too strict? Also, will such a fierce competition lead to serious antagonism among the officers and men of our various regiments, which is not conducive to unity? ”

"I can't stand even a little bit of competition, how can I expect them to fight with the little devils on the battlefield?" Yang Sixian, the commander of the new Third Division, pursed his lips and said:

"Chief of Staff, I think you have too many concerns, and those soldiers who are not adapted to the competition should themselves be eliminated. The military seat has long said that there are cruel laws in war, and if you win what you have, you will defeat nothing! I think the introduction of the competition mechanism can greatly enhance the centripetal force of each department! Of course, we can also let the regiments carry out assistance activities within the regiments and create an atmosphere of mutual assistance at the battalion and company level, perhaps this can reverse the confrontation that the chief of staff fears! ”

Yin Dizhong, the commander of the independent division, was stunned: "That's right, we can organize ourselves to provide necessary help to those backward soldiers, so that they can adapt to the training intensity of the troops as soon as possible!" Of course, we must resolutely dissuade those officers and men who cannot keep up with the progress of training no matter how hard they try, and we must not let a single rat poop spoil a pot of soup. ”

Wu Ming nodded again and again. Three stinkers topped one Zhuge Liang, and after everyone's discussion, the new training program was much more perfect.

"Your advice is good!"

Wu Ming praised him, and then his expression became grim: "War is not far away from us, in order to ensure the combat effectiveness of the troops, we must introduce a healthy competition mechanism." This kind of competition is not to make the regiments fight to the death, but to make them feel the urgency of the war and be more motivated when training. ”

Wu Ming looked at several division commanders: "Due to competition, there will definitely be grievances and even confrontations between the regiments, but I believe that you will definitely properly handle the internal relations, don't you say?" ”

"Yes!"

Luo Yuming, Yang Sixian, and Yin Dizhong replied in unison.

Less than half an hour after the meeting, the divisions gave detailed explanations to the brigades and regiments, asking them to draw up new training plans in accordance with the training syllabus issued by the military headquarters.

Thus began a vigorous large-scale military training.
