"Uncle Cousin, this time I brought back 300 machine guns and 1,000 pistols. If there are enough guns, it will be enough to recruit another 200 people. In addition to 50 elites, maintain a team of 3,500 people and 1,000 construction troops, which can meet the needs.

What we need to protect is divided into two parts, one is the core area and the other is the outer area. The core area is our arsenal, military ration processing plant, warehouses and airfields; On the periphery are our industrial areas, county seats, and our associated villages.

I have already asked my grandfather and grandfather for permission to come to the county seat and the militia to sit in town, and the situation around us will become more and more complicated, and my uncle's ability and prestige are not enough to grasp. Grandpa controlled the overall situation and the management of the core area, and at the same time established the logistics department of the militia group. The grandfather is responsible for the protection and management of the core area, and the cousin is responsible for the protection of the periphery and the foreign exchanges of the militia groups.

I plan to divide the force into several parts, 1,500 people for the protection of the core area, plus 500 construction troops; set aside 200 people to return to the county uncle; With the expansion of factories and villages, the number of militia groups arranged in factories and villages increased to more than 1,000 people, and a total of 2,300 people needed to be managed by cousins.

Uncle Cousin, Chief of Staff, what do you think? ”

"I don't have a problem here." Uncle Cousin replied happily.

"How do you command and coordinate the two parts of the force?" The chief of staff asked.

"It is a principle to divide troops without separating families, to manage them separately in peacetime, and to have unified command in wartime. Haha, if it comes to wartime, the one who leads the troops to fight has to be the chief of staff, and grandpa and cousin can only support you in the battle, and it will be difficult for them to lead the troops to fight. The training camp is within 800 people, so that the team can be trained in the name of justice; The personnel of the staff department are not in the establishment, but the command post in this regimental headquarters is in peacetime, and a command post with anti-aircraft and anti-artillery capabilities is built in the core area.

The chief of staff could not help but plan and build a defense system in the core area, and also select a rapid reaction force of 500 people out of the 1,500 people to be protected in the core area to support peripheral operations at any time. We have a total of 415 cars in place, of which 50 are for the rapid reaction force, 50 are for the uncle, 15 are for experimental modifications, and the rest belong to the construction company and the transport company.

Of course, once the enemy is too large, the core area is the last retreat of the outer personnel. All the troops and personnel are all carrying out combat missions, including the workers in the core area, etc., in other words, it is a place where the fish die and the net is broken! ”

After a pause, he continued: "How the weapons are deployed, the chief of staff will allocate them specifically, and soon we will have more advanced weapons, which we will still produce ourselves." According to what I just meant, the personnel cousin and the chief of staff should be disrupted and redistributed, and the cousin should pay attention to the foundation and loyalty of the personnel in the core area. The Chief of Staff is to expand the intelligence and security personnel of the General Staff. This is a matter of human life, and we must not be careless. ”

"All the members of the militia group, the external political caliber is subject to my grandfather's! If any personnel in the militia and the factories in the core area do not agree, they will be removed. Those who are close to the Nationalist Government and the Communist Party will not encourage or stop us, and we will not go back! I'm talking about anyone, including my little grandfather or my cousin; Two of them are included! ”

"Mr. Li, don't worry, since I have followed you, unless you do something sorry for China, I will not leave, let alone damage here. Of course, if I want to go to war, I will forget everything I am doing now! ”

"Fang Wu, don't worry! I will not betray China, nor will I betray my family! ”

"Well, Uncle Cousin and Chief of Staff are the core of our team, so I'm going to make it clear before the situation gets complicated. There is no doubt in mind, as I said before, I only want to fight the Japanese and am not interested in the civil war. After the end of the Anti-Japanese War, you can live abroad with me, and I will arrange everything abroad! If you want to be in China, you have no problem, and you have the opportunity to choose your own position. That's all for this topic, and I won't mention it in the future. Tell me about the situation on your side, chief of staff. ”

"The Germans are responsible and meticulous in their training; With your regulations, the trained militia can be called elite in the country. The elite soldiers have attacked and suppressed the bandits more than 20 times, and the capture is not bad; Seriously injured and disabled, one arm was broken, and I was arranged to be an instructor in the training camp; 18 people were slightly injured, and all of them have returned to the team.

At present, there are 15 people on mission with Han Ping, 10 people are on duty to suppress bandits, and 25 people are training and on standby! The 50 people who cooperated with Han Ping returned to the team two months ago. I have been in contact with Han Ping once every five days, and yesterday's telegram contact has already contacted each other, and the target person has not yet appeared, I don't know who it is, Han Ping said You know. According to all, the army of Shaanxi massively drove to that side. The other part besieged the area around Yan'an and guarded Xi'an and other cities. If the situation you say is complicated, it means that you judge that they can't stop it. ”

I nodded and said, "The chief of staff recalled the bandits, these people are people we can't afford to offend, so it's better that there is no conflict!" ”

"I'll arrange it!" The chief of staff immediately wrote a telegram and called the staff officer to shoot it.

"Fang Wu, how long will it take to come back this time? What can we do for you? Uncle Cousin asked.

"Uncle Cousin, Chief of Staff, I mainly miss the two of you!"

"Hypocrisy!"

"Liar!"

Laugh together. The atmosphere was lively, and I continued: "Even before the war comes, make some preparations, because there was no money before, and you can't do it if you want to." Now that I've made money, I can do some.

The plan is to return to the United States at the end of the year, on the one hand, we have to straighten out here, some things are clear, and I need to know about my grandfather, grandfather and the two, so as not to know what to do. My father and Aunt Liu were basically certain to be members of the Communist Party, although they did not admit it personally. ”

Seeing the indifference of Uncle Cousin and the Chief of Staff, he continued: "Although I don't want to join them, I admire them very much, especially their attitude towards resistance to Japan has always been clear and resolute. Han Ping is just going to do the thing of sending charcoal in the snow, and I will do some more when I come back; Of course, we are located in an area under the control of the national government, and it is certainly not possible to make a big noise, and we must not go against the government.

This time I brought back two sets of small arsenal equipment and auxiliary equipment, one to be secretly placed in the place where they might occupy, and the other secretly in the place where the Japanese in Shanxi might occupy; That's the first thing. ”

"I'll arrange it, don't risk it." said the chief of staff.

"Haha, the chief of staff will be the figure who will come forward in the War of Resistance, and it is inevitable that the government will arrange for the militia to participate in the war and the local people to join the army. The chief of staff knows the command level of those people, and instead of dying under their stupidity, it is better for us to form an army of our own and let the chief of staff command, even if it is a sacrifice, it must be of greater value. Therefore, the chief of staff must maintain a positive image and cannot casually get involved in political issues.

And I'm mostly hiding in the shadows, a playboy who did things wrong, and I can save it, and the most unfortunate thing is that grandpa will take money to ransom people! Originally, my grandfather arranged to take refuge abroad, but who knew that he was running around and was caught by the government of the Republic of China, and his grandfather took the money, and if he was caught by the Communist Party, his grandfather still took the money. There is no way to get rid of this matter. ”

Uncle Tang and the chief of staff laughed and nodded yes.

"I brought 20 elite soldiers, 2 American bodyguards, and 2 American workers to dig wells and play. Ordinary people don't dare to move, the elite soldiers are all trained by me, and they were caught, and I let them catch them. ”

Seeing that they were really relieved, he continued: "The other thing is that I want to write a book and write a biography!" It's probably the biggest contribution I've ever made to the war. ”

Uncle Tang was stunned for a moment, and immediately laughed and said, "What your grandfather didn't do, when did your good nephew have such a great ability?" ”

The chief of staff hurriedly circled: "Haha, Mr. Li has many miracles, and it's not strange to have one more." ”
