Chapter 156: Veteran Plan
It turned out that Liu Lang divided the disabled veterans into three categories. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The first category is those who have mildly lost the ability to work, have sound lower limbs and can walk normally, and can take care of themselves completely, and such veterans will be left at the base and enjoy the treatment of normal soldiers according to their original ranks, and they will serve as the principal and deputy instructors of various military projects in the recruit camp.
Why not choose able-bodied veterans as instructors, Liu Lang's reason is also very simple, only soldiers who have wandered on the edge of life and death can better understand the preciousness of life, although they have been unable to resist the gun on the battlefield because of their physical disability, but they know how to tell the recruits how to do their best to save themselves at the moment of life and death. In this regard, the veterans who are in normal health are inferior to them.
There is also a category of severely disabled soldiers with mutilated lower limbs or even upper limbs, although there are not many such veterans, but there are more than a dozen, and Liu Lang also left them at the base. But it is not in vain, they will serve as the custodian supervisor of various equipment, equipment, and logistics warehouses, and their role in existence is to supervise, and they only need to have a clear mind. The treatment is the same as that of a veteran who served as an instructor.
The veterans in between the two were assigned by Liu Lang in groups of two to three to various administrative and natural villages in Guangyuan, becoming official residents of Guangyuan, and the independent regiment came forward to purchase land in the local area for distribution. At the same time, Liu Lang signed an order in the name of the need to prevent bandits in the Guangyuan area, and each village should send 30 strong men to form a village guard, organize all kinds of military training during the agricultural slack, and distribute certain firearms and equipment and subsidies.
These veterans distributed in various villages naturally became the leaders and instructors of the village guards. Because Liu Lang's plan is very clear, the firearms used in these training and the training allowances issued will all be in the hands of these veterans, who have guns and money in their hands, and Liu Lang, the boss of the independent regiment, will have the support of them.
In other words, as soon as Liu Lang, a disabled veteran of more than 400 people, was released, he mastered 200 villages of all sizes in Guangyuan, which was not the most terrifying, but the terrible was calculated by the amount of 30 escorts per village, and the militia trained in semi-regular militarization could form a regular army of more than 6,000 people at any time. In this era, peasants who are trained to shoot no more than five bullets a week can go to the battlefield, not to mention the village guards who have at least four months of military training every year in Liu Lang's plan.
Moreover, the more than 400 veterans who were released out did not work in vain, and in addition to being able to allocate land, they could also receive a special allowance of five yuan per month.
If the previous recruit training plan has opened the eyes of Yu Xiancheng and others, this disabled veteran placement plan is even more flawless. Not only does each disabled veteran have an income no less than that of others, but they also earn it through their own labor, ensuring a normal life while maintaining the dignity of being a soldier.
At the same time, Liu Lang also used this to prove that his promise to the soldiers was by no means empty talk, and he would not abandon every seriously wounded soldier, not only enjoying the due allowance for disabled soldiers, but also arranging corresponding work at the headquarters base of the independent regiment to get paid. Looking at the military factories, steel mills, garment factories and military bases that will be built in the next few years mentioned in Liu Lang's plan, no one doubts that Liu Lang will not be able to arrange so many people in the future.
What's even more terrifying is that after such a move, Liu Lang has actually gained control of Guangyuan, the gateway to northern Sichuan, and any wind and grass in Guangyuan can't escape his sight, and he has obtained more than 6,000 reserve soldiers, even if more than 1,000 independent regiments are gone, as long as the skeleton is still there, he can pull up four independent regiments at a faster speed, or the kind that can immediately enter the battle.
Solving the worries of the independent regiment and using this to gain absolute control of the entire Guangyuan is undoubtedly a genius-type plan.
Ordinary soldiers don't think of as many commanders, but they see tangible benefits, they no longer have to worry about the consequences of being disabled after joining the army and fighting, and their fat commander has proved with practical actions that he will not abandon his soldiers.
The disabled veterans who followed the independent regiment to Guangyuan were naturally moved to tears, they had been lost and worried for a long time along the way, and they didn't know how this new commander who was kind and strict would settle them. Perhaps the best outcome is to leave them to eat and die in the independent group, and be raised like a waste.
But now, they can still puff up their chests and prove that they once had the dignity of being a warrior and live on their own.
Life is more than what is in front of you, and it may be too literary and artistic for many people to understand, but human beings who have already satisfied their belly needs often begin to pay attention to the oil on their faces, whether they are a peddler's pawn or a village man's fool.
As soon as the two plans were announced, it was announced that the independent regiment had officially entered a period of rapid development.
The 1,700 recruits, including Liu Lang's orderly Sanchuan and the small cooking soldiers Gou Defu and Mo Xiaomei, who had not experienced the battlefield, all entered the recruit training camp.
Liu Lang served as the chief instructor of the training camp, Yu Xiancheng and Chi Dakui served as deputies, and 170 of the 500 veterans were selected to serve as the squad leaders of the recruit squad, and their task was to supervise and record the recruits. At the same time, in addition to some unnecessary subjects, such as shooting, bayonet fighting, building field fortifications and other military training programs, they will also participate in training with the recruits.
As a rule, the 1,700 recruits and 170 veterans were divided into 10 recruit companies, and the junior ensign, who had previously led 700 disabled veterans, and the other nine lieutenants who had performed the best during this period were assigned as recruit company commanders. Except for Zhao Ergou, who has basically been recognized as the commander of the artillery company of the Independent Regiment, three of the remaining five of the six remnants who originally followed Liu Lang were selected. Although they were once only a big soldier, Liu Dazhu and the other three people's performance in these days, whether it was a 150-mile rapid march or a six-day devil's training and restraining their own soldiers, their selection was beyond reproach.
Although he was only a temporary recruit company commander, almost everyone knew that as long as they didn't make big mistakes, it was a certainty that these ten people would be promoted. It is even quite possible that they are the company commanders of the future independent regiment.
The remaining officers and veterans were not idle, and while completing the military training arranged by Liu Lang, they had to complete a military task assigned to them by Liu Lang on the opposite mountain, a term they had never heard of----- building an anticline tunnel.
It doesn't matter if you don't understand, anyway, they have to learn to repair fortifications, no one complains, and the veterans who have experienced a big war know very well that without good fortifications, when the enemy shells come, no matter how strong the fighters are, they can only become scum.
Liu Lang and the two future battalion-level military commanders of the Independent Regiment, Yu Xiancheng and Chi Dakui, are all focused on the new barracks, and it is naturally Liang Wenzhong who can lead the remaining veterans.
Liang Wenzhong was confused, according to what Liu Lang drew for him on the map, to block the enemy on the mountain, but to build a tunnel on the mountainside on the back of the mountain, what kind of tactical need is this?
Liu Lang laughed, didn't explain much, let them think for themselves, and told them that the tunnel would be used in the military exercise of recruits in three months.
Seeing that he couldn't get valuable clues, Liang Wenzhong had no choice but to take the order.
After arranging large and small matters, Liu Lang finally sat down and drank a sip of water, and saw that there was another trouble, Liu Lang was not only a little big.
