Chapter 264: Structure of the Self-Defense Corps
Yang Shixiong first gave a brief briefing on the construction of the headquarters, saying that the three main departments of the General Staff Office, the Intelligence Department, and the Logistics Office have been basically established, and the framework for the newly established Communications Office has also been erection.
At present, the main problem is that the intelligence department is not able to work independently, and it only regularly summarizes the reports of the investigation department of the police department and the intelligence staff officers of the three main regiments.
In this regard, Li Junhao also has a headache, the establishment of the military intelligence department is not so easy, and he has no professional talents in his hands now!
Yang Shixiong has no problem with military command, but he is not good at intelligence.
At present, there are more than 50 former military commanders under his command, led by Wang Renqiang, but they are basically operational personnel; Although the newcomers Pan Juntao and the others are involved in intelligence, they are telecommunications professionals and are not good at military intelligence work.
He wants to dig up Wen Qiang now, this person is not very good at doing things, but he is still very good at intelligence! It's just that this idea is unrealistic, and even if he agrees, the Kuomintang will not agree to it.
There is no way, he can only take charge of the intelligence department by himself now, waiting for the right person to appear.
——
Regarding the situation of the three main regiments, Yang Shixiong focused on the situation of the 327th regiment.
Because they are all American officers and soldiers, the organization and training of the 4th Army Regiment and the 15th Infantry Regiment went smoothly, and now they have been fully formed, and the recruits only need to accumulate experience in their future duties and tasks.
The 327th Regiment of the Navy and Army has just been the most difficult to organize and train because of the mixed formation of Chinese and American officers and soldiers, but fortunately, the officers are good enough and the overall situation is also very good, but it is still necessary to continue to improve their language communication skills.
In addition, there is a situation, Yang Shixiong emphatically said, the new armored vehicles currently equipped in the 327 Regiment and the Wolf Warrior Brigade have attracted the attention of many quarters, and the military attaches of many countries have found excuses to visit;
However, the demands of Japan, Germany, and Italy were resolutely refused, so after discovering many prying eyes, there was reason to suspect the intelligence officers of these countries.
Yang Shixiong did not ask about the source of these armored vehicles, perhaps in his mind, this is the latest development of the United States!
Li Junhao thought about it for a while, and reflected on whether it was too early to take out this thing? But then think about it, these armored vehicles he took out did not actually exceed the scientific and technological level of this era in terms of technology, but they were extremely demanding in terms of manufacturing process.
In a resource-poor country like Little Japan, even if it is given a drawing, it is estimated that it will not be able to produce it, because the cost is too high!
And the German and Italian side is definitely capable of manufacturing, but they themselves have their own equipment sequences, and if it is said that it is not cost-effective to adjust their military production for the sake of a good armored car, because there are too many things involved - manufacturing standards, weapon systems, control systems, etc.
So, all things considered, it really doesn't have much impact.
After listening to his explanation, Yang Shixiong agreed, and no longer dwelled on this matter, and talked about the third thing.
——
At present, the first round of screening and review of the International Chamber of Commerce has ended, and nearly half of them have been eliminated, and the remaining 800 or so people have been moved to No. 256 Xiaoshadu Road, where they are accompanied by the municipal guards who are being censored here.
At this time, the Municipal Guard Force was really eliminated by half, leaving only more than 1,400 people, which were organized into the Second Training Brigade, the International Business Group into the Third Training Brigade, and the number of the First Training Brigade was reserved for the third batch of new police cadets trained by the Police Training Center.
In addition, at present, various chambers of commerce, guilds, neighborhoods, and neighborhoods have applied for the establishment of more than 40 people's rear joint defense teams, ranging in number from 20 to 30 to 2 to 300 people, and arrangements have been arranged for them to take turns to receive primary training at the police training center.
Yang Shixiong said that it is now possible to start organizing the structure of the Self-Defense Corps and start recruiting new recruits at the same time.
In this regard, Li Junhao of course agreed and listened to his detailed report.
At the previous military affairs meeting, Yang Shixiong had proposed a plan to establish two compendium divisions, one of which was a full trainer and one was a frame division, and later Li Junhao changed all of them to full trainers with a stroke of his pen.
Therefore, the current plan is for the militia self-defense regiment to adopt a similar establishment model to the previous tax police regiment:
The General League Department was established, with Li Junhao concurrently serving as the head of the General Regiment and Yang Shixiong concurrently serving as the Chief of Staff.
The militia units of two divisions under the general regiment are initially planned to be built into six regiments.
Group A is the "International Mission", which was formed on the basis of the original International Business Group, but the Chinese team was drawn out and composed of all foreign nationals.
Group B is the "Chinese First Regiment", which is formed on the basis of the Chinese team in the original International Business Group and the Municipal Guard, and all of them are Chinese.
Regiment C was the "White Russian Regiment", which was recruited from the White Russian groups in the Shanghai Concession.
The D Regiment is the "Second Chinese Regiment" and is formed on the basis of the third batch of new police trainees who are participating in the training.
Regiment E was a "foreign regiment", which was mainly recruited from the Jewish community in Shanghai, and the shortfall was supplemented by expatriates.
The F Regiment is the "Third Regiment of China", which was formed by recruiting from the veterans of the former National Army in Shanghai.
Li Junhao approved the plan and let Yang Shixiong do it, while he provided the logistics.
——
During the large-scale reorganization of troops on the side of the Joint Command, the Investigation Department of the Police Department was also busy, and began to carry out special strikes against the Japanese puppet lurkers in the concession, and in just a few days it cracked dozens of spy points and captured more than 300 Japanese puppet spies.
According to the provisions of the Geneva Convention, spies are not entitled to the treatment of prisoners of war, so the Japanese side has repeatedly asked for the release of these people on bail, but the concession police station has categorically refused.
For this reason, the Japanese Consulate was also very busy during this period, and constantly sent people to negotiate with the US side, hoping to stop this behavior of the concession police, but there was no response at all.
In response to the arrest of the Japanese puppet spies, the "Huhai Communique" directly under the Ministry of Industry and Bureau has published the relevant facts of the case on several occasions, exposing the sinister intentions of the Japanese to the citizens of Shanghai.
The police department even published a special article in the "Gazette", pointing out the threat of Japanese puppet spies to the law and order of the concession, and calling on the general public to pay attention to abnormal people and things around them; In addition, the police station has announced a new effective reporting hotline, and rewards citizens who provide clues and arrest Japanese pseudo-spies.
So, in the first month of this new year, the concession set off a vigorous "catch spies" activity, the police station can receive a lot of reports every day, although most of them are false positives after screening, but also cracked a lot of spy outlets, most of them are Japanese pseudo-spies, but there are also many other parties, so that many countries and forces are very shameless!
