Chapter 365: Sweeping the End (Asking for Subscriptions, Asking for Monthly Passes, Asking for Various !! )
After nearly a month of migration, both the German side and Chen Feng's Eighth War Zone were already familiar with this matter, as soon as these Jews got on the bus from Berlin, Chen Feng sent someone to wait in Kulen (Ulaanbaatar) to pick them up, and when the Jews arrived in Guisui, they first checked their health and then waited for distribution in the temporary camp.
After consultation with William and others and the Ministry of Civil Affairs of the Provincial Government of Saibei Province, these people were sent by train to the industrial zones of Ordos, Wuhai and other places, and then arranged for them to become employees of public and private factories in Saibei Province with the cooperation of the local military and political departments.
After this period of life, the Jews also learned that the Chinese general did not buy them to be slaves to enslave them, but to treat them as free workers, and if there was a skill, they could be reused by the general.
To tell the truth, on the one hand, it is true that these Jews were bought because of the need for territorial construction, and on the other hand, Chen Feng did not take a fancy to the intelligence of the Jews. Compared with the Chinese of this era, the Jewish literacy rate is obviously much higher than that of the Chinese, among which there are many talents engaged in medical, science and technology, education, finance and other industries, and these people are what Chen Feng is in short supply now.
If you want to end the war as soon as possible and shorten the gap between China and the major countries in the world, this talent is the most important thing. But now China simply does not have the soil and environment to cultivate talents, so Chen Feng hit the Jews with his idea.
But for now, it's working pretty well. During this period, a large number of the more than 200,000 Jews who migrated to Saibei Province were engaged in non-agricultural work, and Chen Feng gave them a very high salary, with a monthly salary of 3 yuan and temporary housing, which was already a paradise for the displaced Jews.
On 18 November, Chen Feng convened a military meeting in Guisui and demanded that all principal officers of independent combat units at the division and brigade level must attend, and this was the only military meeting held by Chen Feng in the past month or so.
At this meeting, Chen Feng mainly planned to solve the problems that had not been solved in the last army expansion, and when the last army expansion was about to be completed, the Japanese army suddenly launched an attack on Henan, and Chen Feng had to order the troops to immediately go south for reinforcements. The expansion and sweeping work has been delayed.
Since a big battle has just ended. Therefore, the Eighth Theater Commander's Department judged that the Japanese army would not launch a new offensive in the short term, so the people who came to this meeting were quite complete.
Seeing the room full of officers, Chen Feng's mood was also very happy, these people were all brothers who were born and died with him. Now I see them shining one by one. Chen Feng felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart. I think my brother was just a small major officer back then. Now my brother has cultivated a litter of generals.
"It's all here, let's start when it's all here!" Chen Feng said with a smile.
As soon as Chen Feng's words fell, everyone immediately straightened their backs and waited for Chen Feng's instructions.
"The main reason for calling everyone over this time is to expand the troop and sweep up the tail. Originally, these things should have been finished a long time ago, but the little devil didn't let us be satisfied, so it dragged on until now! Chen Feng said.
"In the past few months, we have expanded a lot of troops in the Eighth Theater, and now there are 15 infantry divisions alone, and there are 8 special task brigades, in addition to armor, air defense, artillery, army aviation, air force and many other arms, but many of our units are newly formed, some units are not fully equipped with officers, some are not fully equipped with weapons, and some units even have only soldiers and no officers. In addition, our existing three group armies cannot stand on their own, so our strength must be strengthened. ”
"Now I will read out the appointment of the officers of the newly formed infantry unit: Hu Tiesheng, commander of the 4th Northern Division, and Hai Liang, deputy commander of the division; Li Fuhai, commander of the 1st Special Mixed Division, and Sun Yifeng, deputy commander of the division; Xu Dazhuang, commander of the 2nd Division of Special Operations, and Huang Haibo, deputy commander of the division; Li Haiping, commander of the 3rd Special Mixed Division, and Zhang Fei, deputy division commander; Cai Ming, commander of the 4th Division of Special Operations, and Qin Lu, deputy commander of the division; Liu Zhiqiang, commander of the 5th Division of Special Mixed Forces, and Jiang Yubing, deputy commander; Liu Guodong, commander of the 6th Division of the Special Mixed Division, Li Jian, deputy division commander, Lai Pingfu, commander of the 7th Division of the Special Mixed Division, and Huo Jinyuan, deputy division commander. Li Qiang, commander of the 1st Brigade of Special Operations, and Niu Hu, deputy brigade commander; Special Task Force 2nd Brigade Commander He Huajian and Deputy Brigade Commander Xu Lang; Special Task Force 3 Brigade Commander Liu Li and Deputy Brigade Commander Chen Youliang; Special Task Force 4th Brigade Commander Feng Zhen and Deputy Brigade Commander Yang Bing; Chen Bing, commander of the 5th Brigade of the Special Task Force, and Ao Riguga, deputy brigade commander; Special Task Force 6th Brigade Commander Mo Rigen and Deputy Brigade Commander Zhou Jianming; Special Task Force 7 Brigade Commander Zhu Xiashui and Deputy Brigade Commander Li Erhai; Commander Wu Yanming and Deputy Brigade Commander Chang Guorong of the 8th Special Task Force. ”
"The newly formed artillery officer appointment list: Zhao Tiezhu, commander of the 3rd Mountain Artillery Brigade, and Chen Daniu, deputy brigade commander; Ao Rigra, commander of the 3rd Field Artillery Brigade, and Ouyang Anti-Japanese, deputy brigade commander; Wen Hao, commander of the 3rd Heavy Artillery Brigade, and Xu Qiang, deputy brigade commander. ”
"The officers of the newly formed armored unit were appointed: Li Haihan, commander of the 2nd Armored Division, and Xu Guangrong, deputy division commander; Li Yisheng, commander of the 3rd Armored Division, and Batel, deputy commander of the 3rd Armored Division. ”
"The new arrangement is Liu Haoqiang, the commander of the Second Division, and Li Erwa, the deputy commander of the Second Division."
"Wang Tianying, commander of the 1st Brigade of the newly formed Army Aviation, and Li Xiang, deputy brigade commander; Mo Yan, commander of the 2nd Brigade of the Army Airlines, and Yang Daguang, deputy brigade commander; Wang Ronghua, commander of the 3rd Brigade of the Army Airlines, and Yuan Wen, deputy brigade commander; Cui Hao, commander of the 4th Brigade of the Army Airlines, and Liang Guosong, deputy brigade commander. ”
After reading out the list of officers appointed, Chen Feng paused and said: "Now our Eighth Theater has not only increased the number of troops, but also increased the number of troops, in addition to the traditional infantry and cavalry, we have also increased the number of engineers, artillery, armored troops, air defense troops, transport troops, aviation troops, airborne troops, radar troops, and so on. After these two years of fighting, you have all grown into qualified officers, and I am so proud and proud of you! ”
"Bang Bang !!" As soon as Chen Feng's words fell, there was warm applause in the conference room!
"Everyone knows that the old Chen family spent tens of billions of dollars to buy two islands from the Australian government, do you know why the old Chen family spent such a huge price to buy these two islands?" Chen Feng asked again.
Seeing that everyone didn't speak, Chen Feng continued: "If you have any ideas, just say it, everyone knows what I do, even if I say it wrong, it's nothing!" ”
Hearing Chen Feng say this, Li Yifeng, who has always been very arrogant, said with a big mouth: "Actually, the commander can guess if he doesn't say it, isn't it just for the whole nest of the navy, but I can't understand it, why do you want to raise the nest of the navy so far away, Annam and Siam are not impossible to buy a small island, where we are close, it is convenient to take care of it, isn't it?" ”
"Hehe, you don't know this, although Annam and Siam are close, but they are vulnerable to Japanese attacks, our navy is still very weak, not even one-fifth of the strength of the Japanese army, as long as the little devil is willing, just send a detachment to wipe out our naval base with a thunderous sweep, so I will build the naval base in the South Seas." Chen Feng explained.
"Commander, is it okay to repair on those two small islands, can't the Japanese navy get there?" Li Yifeng asked again.
"That's not it, with the sturdiness and speed of a modern warship, there is really no sea area that cannot be reached, and the islands of New Guinea and Tasmania are remote, but they are not inaccessible."
"Why, then, if the Japanese warships can still arrive, how can it be safer to spend more time than to build naval bases in Annam and Siam?" Li Yifeng said.
Chen Feng took out a simple map of the world and said: "This is a topographic map of Asia, this piece is our China, this place bent like a crescent moon is Japan, and this huge continent is Australia, next to this turtle-like island is the island of New Guinea, and this smaller island is Tasmania." ”
"Commander, why do I see that our Nanyang Territory seems to be a little bigger than the Japanese island?" Li Wensheng asked with a frown.
Chen Feng smiled and said, "The Japanese archipelago is located on the east side of the Eurasian continent, and the bow-shaped island group is formed by the northwest of Taiping. With a total area of 372,000 square kilometers and a length of 2,500 kilometers from north to south, it is composed of thousands of islands, large and small. The main islands are Hokkaido, Honshu, Shikoku, and Kyushu. The island of New Guinea is about 2,400 kilometers long from east to west and 640 kilometers wide at its central point. It covers an area of about 786,000 square kilometers, with a total of 818,000 square kilometers including coastal islands. Tasmania covers an area of 68,332 square kilometres and covers Kings Island and Flinders Island to the north of the main island. The total area of our South Sea Territory is equivalent to two and a half of Japan, and it certainly looks larger on the map than the Japanese archipelago. ”
All the officers in the conference room were taken aback, they all knew that Commander Lu Dao had bought two islands in Nanyang and spent tens of billions of dollars, and the vast majority of the officers felt that it was unnecessary, and how much money was more than 14 billion dollars, and it was too cost-effective to change two small islands. They never imagined that these two "small islands" would be so big, that they were worth two and a half Japan.
"Commander, are you saying that the area of the Nanyang Territory is larger than that of two Japans?" Chen Tiebao asked in surprise.
Chen Feng said: "It was sudden, otherwise it might be worth so much money, and its area is not much larger than that of small countries such as Siam and Annam." On the one hand, the reason why I want to build a naval base on this island is because the South Sea Territory is next to Australia, which is not a strong country but is a member of the British Commonwealth, so Japan should be wary of the Australian government and will not enter the waters around the South Sea Territory at will. Secondly, these two islands are huge in size and have enough depth to deal with the Japanese army, even if the Japanese army captures our naval port, we can still rely on the army to deal with it, and there will be no way out of retreat all at once. On the other hand, the island is rich in resources, and most of the strategic resources can be produced by itself, including copper, iron, oil, etc., if it is managed well, it can completely share the pressure of the domestic battlefield.
