Make the most of it (1)
"The head of the No. 1 artillery school has made up his mind and transferred a division of troops to come over for construction, and now all the materials and labor are in place, and it can start immediately!" Zhu Rui stood on a dirt slope and said to Liu Hai.
"In fact, the infrastructure is easy to say, it's a big deal to sleep in tents, mainly for teaching cannons and the quality of students, to be honest, I'm not very optimistic about your quality, you almost don't have high-achieving students from colleges and universities, most of them are some children of workers and peasants, everything has to start from scratch! There is also the problem of instructors, it is not enough for me to have a chief instructor, such a large artillery school, at least more than 100 instructors, you brought it from Yan'an is far from enough! Liu Hai looked at the address of the artillery school in front of him and said.
"Chief Instructor Liu said that the problem is very practical, our first batch of new students are all children of workers and peasants, and they don't know all the types of cannons, at most they have played a few mortars, and they can't distinguish between * guns and cannons, as for the instructors, there is even more lacking, only those I brought, to be honest, are also some two knives, within the visual distance is about six or seven out of ten, take your time, you can't eat a fat man!" Zhu Rui also said helplessly.
"Aren't there quite a few prisoners of your country? Can't you pick a few of those people? Bangs said.
"That's right, but if you think about it, some time ago, we fought against the Kuomintang, and they were all elite main forces, and we captured some prisoners, but there was no artillery, did your division lose artillery?" Jury asked.
"You don't understand this, in the Kuomintang troops, except for a very few people in the army, such as me, but most people want to learn at least to be useful, they need the ocean and women, but not everyone has these two things, there are many artillery and even naval talents in the infantry company, go and ask, I believe there will be gains!"
"What? Pick teachers from the captives and let the reactionaries be our teachers? Why, it's not bad that Lao Tzu didn't surprise them! The regiment commander who received the order to hand over the prisoners asked more, saying that he wanted to select talents to be instructors in the artillery school of the People's Liberation Army, and it exploded at that time!
"Regiment Commander, this is the order of the No. 1 chief, there are no conditions to speak of, you must obey!" The person who came was a staff officer of the headquarters of the Democratic Alliance Army, and he said very strongly.
"Okay, take them, don't let me see them again!" The head of the regiment said. The staff officer left with more than 1,000 prisoners, and these more than 1,000 prisoners were the main forces of the Kuomintang descendants who were captured in the battle some time ago, and as for the prisoners of those miscellaneous armies, they were not within the scope of Liu Hai's selection!
"Chief Instructor Liu, take a look, these more than 1,000 captives are here!" After the staff officer escorted the prisoner back, he took him directly to the back of the artillery school and let Liu Hai pick it directly!
"You go and ask, if any of them have played with artillery, if so, come out, as for what conditions are given to them, comrade staff, tell me!" Bangs said. "Okay, I'll ask!" The staff officer walked over with someone.
I didn't hear what the staff officer said, but soon a dozen people came out of the ranks of the prisoners!
"Chief Instructor Liu, just these dozen or so people have played artillery, and only two of them have graduated from the artillery department!" The staff officer came over and said.
"Except for those two artillery graduates, everyone else called over!" Bangs said
"Only Huangpu has an artillery department, and it is impossible for a graduate of the Huangpu artillery department to be in an infantry company!"
"Everyone, everyone has played with artillery, since we have reached this step, don't say anything, those who know the times are Junjie, at least there is no need to fight the civil war anymore, let me tell you the truth, I am also a national army, but I am not captured, I am squeezed out by the party-state, and I am also half of the surrender, my name is Liu Hai, and I am the commander of the honorary fourth division!" Bangs said as he looked at the dozen or so captives in front of him.
"Honorary Fourth Division Commander? Isn't that cannon god bangs? ”
"Yes, I've heard about it a long time ago, the bangs that killed the Kwantung Army artillery god!"
"yes, I've heard of it, but I haven't seen it!" A dozen captives chattered as they stared at bangs.
"Don't be surprised, I'm the same as you, I got out of the blood and fire of the eight-year Anti-Japanese War, but now I'm going to fight a civil war, I don't want to, I believe that no one wants to, but I don't have a choice in the national army, plus some exclusion, because of these exclusions, I lost my lover and brother, so I chose here, here I can continue to play my strengths, and I don't have to fight to the death with my former Pao Ze brothers, I think this place is not bad. It's impossible for you to return to the national army, but you can't be so wasted in your skills, stay here as an instructor, where you can avoid fighting with your former comrades, and continue to play yourself! What do you think? ”。
After a dozen people were silent, one of them finally spoke
"I do!"
"I do, too!"
"Well, that's a home!" Gradually, in addition to one person, more than a dozen people were willing to stay!
"How?" The staff officer asked.
"Most people are willing to stay, and there is one who has not expressed his position, and I am having a good talk with him!" Bangs said.
"Don't want to? I think it's given him face, I'll go find him! The staff officer said angrily.
"Comrade staff officer, you can't be tough, if you want people to teach you their skills, you have to make people willing, otherwise you will fire according to the methods that others shoot very accurately, and the shells will explode in your own hands if they don't do well!" Bangs said.
"Okay!" The staff officer glanced at his bangs and said. In fact, this staff officer didn't want to listen to Liu Hai, but he was given a death order by the No. 1 chief, and he didn't dare!
Liu Hai called out the officer who had never spoken,
"Tell me, why wouldn't you?" Bangs asked.
"But sir, we are the national army, and we have taught * that we will still fight against the national army in the future, and our brothers may still be killed by us indirectly! I don't know who is right and who is wrong between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, but I don't want to betray! The officer said.
"You're not right, it's not a betrayal, it's a choice, a helpless choice, I ask you, are you willing to fight a civil war?" Bangs asked.
"I don't want to, but I'm a national army!" The officer said.
"In the past, the Eighth Route Army was also regarded as the national army, the 18th Group Army, it was really not interesting for our own people to fight our own people, we are training artillery here, just cultivating talents for the country, no matter who wins in the future, the country still needs artillery talents to defend the country! You are a talent, a talent is useful at any time, no matter who wins or loses, the security of the country needs a strong artillery! And I don't agree with what you said about betrayal, we can choose the Kuomintang or the Communist Party, because they are all our Chinese military forces, no matter which side we choose, we have not betrayed our country, a real soldier should be loyal to his own country, not any party or individual! We have not betrayed, I am still serving the country! After bangs were finished, the officer was silent for a moment and then said
"Sir, maybe you're right, as long as we don't betray the country! I am willing to stay, in the new army of the 77th Regiment infantry battalion commander Wu Zhiguo, the former commander of the 58th Army artillery battalion, although not as brilliant as your record, but once killed a Japanese major general! ”
"Very good, you can kill the Japanese major general, an absolute hero!" Bangs said with a smile.
"Chief Instructor Liu, you really have you, now we have more than a dozen instructors!" Zhu Rui said happily
"I went and asked, they are all old artillerymen, experienced, all rolled out of the eight-year Anti-Japanese War, these people can't be bought with gold!"
"yes, it's better to have them here than to die on the battlefield! However, Principal Zhu, there are still not enough teachers, and such a large artillery school needs at least more than 100 teachers! I have an idea, can I pick some people out of the remaining Japanese soldiers, maybe there is no artillery god level master like Miki, but the quality of the Japanese artillery is still first-class, and the Japanese artillery I fought with is somewhat better than the American artillery in terms of quality, but this matter needs to be reported, do you think it's okay? ”
"This is an idea, we can still use the remaining Japanese army, and many Japanese technicians have stayed! But this matter requires the nod of the No. 1 leader, because the matter of the artillery school was personally supervised by the No. 1 leader! Zhu Rui said
"What does Chief Number 1 mean, can we ask the Soviets for some help?"
"No way!" Bangs said without thinking about it
"Although Lao Maozi's cannon is solid, but the structure is simple, the artillery aims are crude, and they all rely on scale and quantity to win on the battlefield, although there is no shortage of masters in the Soviet army, but with the character of the Soviets, they will not teach us the real skills, and their tactics and tactics are based on large-scale artillery units at the division level, which are not applicable to us, but we can ask them for some artillery for teaching!"
"This bangs are really at the level of the artillery god, and they are so familiar with the artillery of the Soviet army, to be honest, the artillery tactics of the Soviet army are not very suitable for us, I think since he is the chief instructor, then do what he does, go and send the artillery officers among the remaining personnel of the Japanese army, above the adjutant, all gathered together and sent Liu Hai over! As for the artillery, all the types of cannons, calibers and models we collected and the number of matching shells were sorted out into information, and sent to Liu Hai, all the resources were selected by him, and the artillery school was related to the future victory or defeat of our Northeast Battlefield, and there could be no sloppiness! Chief One said.
"Chief, the cannons we collect now are very miscellaneous, not only are the types of accessories not systematic, but even the shells are miscellaneous, I'm afraid it will take a little time to sort out the information!" The staff officer said.
"Then give me twenty-four hours to rotate and sort out all the cannons collected by the troops, and if anyone delays the artillery school, I will kill him!"
