"Brother Fan, wake up! It's dawn! ”

Liao Fan didn't know how he returned to the headquarters last night, and he had a splitting headache at this time.

"What time is it?" Liao Fan asked.

"It's half past seven, and according to your arrangement, you should go to school today! There's also officers training over there, and you're going to give them lessons! ”

Although the surroundings of the New 33rd Army were temporarily stable, Liao Fan couldn't relax and didn't care about anything. He made a plan for himself yesterday, but he drank a meal at Huang Changsheng's house last night, and forgot all about the plan he had arranged, but fortunately he handed the plan to his guards and asked him to remind him.

"I remember! It's a forgetfulness to drink! ”

Although Liao Fan said this, they were very happy yesterday.

The officers in the school had already learned that today's military class was being taught yesterday, and they had already come to the classroom early and sat down in a proper manner.

"Yo he! You're here early, I've heard that you guys don't like to stay in school, and you provoke teachers every day! Liao Fan's head was still dizzy, he sat directly on the chair of the podium and looked at the officers below.

The officers below sat honestly and didn't dare to answer Liao Fan, although they usually made a little fuss, but they didn't make too much trouble, otherwise Liao Fan would have kicked them out of the classroom. What is needed in the army is a lively atmosphere, not a lifeless and oppressive atmosphere.

Liao Fan glanced at the officers in the classroom and said with a smile: "I didn't come today to hold you responsible, I came to give a lecture to everyone, you can ask any questions!" ”

Liao Fan was able to teach military knowledge in class, but it was still very difficult for all officers to accept these ideas, especially the large corps operation was a bit fantastical for these officers.

These officers are all at the level of battalion commander and company commander, and it is a bit too early to tell them what mechanized combat is in the large corps. But for Liao Fan, this matter is just around the corner, the strength of the new 33rd Army has reached the scale of a large corps, and the new 33rd Army will continue to expand its strength in the future, and these officers who are listening to the lectures will one day become regiment commanders and division commanders, and their troops will also reach tens of thousands.

"Brother Fan, isn't it a little too early for you to tell us about these things?"

"Hmm...... I've been waiting for you guys to ask this question! Liao Fan looked at these officers with a smile, "Do you all have this confusion?" ”

"Yes, Brother Fan, let's not talk about the big corps first, let's talk about mechanization first, although our new 33rd Army has tanks and trucks, but it is far from the level of mechanization, do you want us to mechanize on two legs?"

"Okay, then I'll talk about the development of our new 33rd Army! When we came to Taihang Mountain with our troops, the strength was only a few thousand, and there were only more than 1,000 people left who were beaten by the little devils when the troops were the smallest! How many of us are there today? ”

"Two hundred thousand!" An officer replied.

"Yes, 200,000 troops, I couldn't believe that two years later today, we will grow from a few thousand to 200,000! Then you tell me that in two years we will not be armoured? ”

The speed of development of the army is beyond Liao Fan's imagination, and even more beyond the imagination of every officer who is doing it.

"If our troops become mechanized troops in the future, they will inevitably have your share, and when the time comes, you will say that you don't know the tactical tactics of armored troops, throw tanks and armored vehicles aside as scrap metal, and fight little devils on two legs?"

The reserve of intellectuals is vital for a country, for an army, everything is developing, and if you can't keep up with the times, you will be eliminated. The same is true for the army, just as the cavalry has gradually become unsuitable for the battlefield, and the emergence of armored forces will be an indispensable part of the army.

"You can think that knowledge is useless in your head, but when you really think it is useful, but when you are dying, you are officers of the new 33rd Army, if one day you can't keep up with the pace of our troops, you will also be eliminated!"

Liao Fan solemnly told every officer present that they bear the future of the New 33rd Army, and no matter where they can go in the future, their fate has been closely united with the New 33rd Army.

Although these officers have not yet come into contact with tanks and armored vehicles, they have begun to realize the importance of armored vehicles and tanks in future wars, and if they are asked to choose whether to fight on two legs or on the tracks of tanks, they will of course choose tanks without hesitation.

After giving a lesson to the officers, Liao Fan summoned all the instructors in the military academy for a meeting.

"I'm going to give officers a world geography lesson, and I don't ask them to understand the international situation, but it always doesn't hurt to let them know how big the world is!"

Most of the officers of the New 33rd Army were peasants, and due to conditions, they had not gone to school, let alone knew the whole earth, and some even thought that the earth was flat and had edges, and some people thought that the moon was bigger than the sun.

Although there are some things that are not useful in military affairs, they can broaden the horizons of officers and not let them always limit their eyes to the present.

"Brother Fan, it's good for you to decide this matter, discuss it with us, it's equivalent to playing the piano to the cow!"

Most of the instructors in the military academy were taught by Liao Fan, who only knew military affairs and did not understand world geography at all.

Liao Fan smiled awkwardly, and only then did he realize that there was a lack of an old hen that laid eggs in the military academy, but after thinking about it, Liao Fan had a candidate, and Shen Zhengwen's military knowledge was among the top in the new 33rd Army, so it was the best choice for him to teach.

"Hey, hey, I have a candidate, but you have to be a student too! Those of you who are teachers are also from the students, and then come back to the furnace! ”

With Liao Fan's order, where do they dare to disobey, anyway, it's not the first time to be a student.

Since Liao Fan handed over the secret mission to Shen Zhengwen, there are only more than 100 troops that Shen Zhengwen has formed for such a long time, but these 100 are intellectuals, not to mention in China, if they come to hold an imperial examination in Taihang Mountain, these 100 people will be the champions.

"Let me teach world geography? Why do you want me to teach? More than half of the teachers in Liu Deyun's school know better than me! Brother Fan, you should look for them, there are too many things to learn in our first courtyard now! ”

Shen Zhengwen and the others looked at the documents day and night, these documents were all picked up by Liao Fan from all over the world, most of them were in English, and some were in German.

"It's definitely no problem for them to teach world geography, but you also know that those officers in our military academy are all thorns, and those who come down from the battlefield are full of anger, I'm afraid that those polite teachers can't stop them, you old Shen is different, you become famous in a battle on the battlefield, and those officers are looking at you and are afraid!"

"Brother Fan, are you praising me or hurting me!"

"Of course it's a compliment to you, there are a lot of problems in our troops now, and I also know that we can't do it overnight anyway, and we can't become fat by eating in one bite, but we can't stop eating, it's better to be a little better than being hungry!"

The army must always develop towards strength, otherwise Liao Fan would not have let Shen Zhengwen bring people here to engage in this set of things.

"Okay, I'll try, but the ugly thing is ahead, I'll arrange when the class will be! After all, there is a big mess in the first courtyard now, and there are still a lot of things to deal with! ”

"This is natural, you Lao Shen is an expert, you have the final say in this regard, I have to listen to you!"

As long as it is for the good of the troops, it doesn't matter who you listen to, as long as you can lead the troops to develop for the good.

Of course, there were several division commanders such as Huang Changsheng who came to class, of course they were unwilling to come to class, Liao Fan, the eldest of the new 33rd Army, and they were the second, and they couldn't afford to lose this person when they came to class, but Liao Fan gave them an order, either to hand over a large number of equipment, or to come to class, and choose by themselves, several division commanders had to come to class obediently.

Ma Wanzhong also brought a good thing to Shen Zhengwen, that is, the globe placed in Yan Laoxi's office, with this thing, Shen Zhengwen gave them a lesson and got twice the result with half the effort.

With the stability of the rear, Shanxi has gradually prospered, and the people of Taihang Mountain have a much better life. In particular, the New 33rd Army has various welfare policies in terms of people's livelihood, and the local aquaculture industry has also developed rapidly.

However, Liao Fan still did not forget the battle against the little devils, but the Japanese army had more and more troops around the New 33rd Army, and it was difficult for them to complete the operation against the Japanese army in large-scale operations.

"We are already in a stalemate with the Japanese army, and the little devils probably don't have the heart to eat us all now, they just want to curb our development!"

At the monthly military meeting, Liao Fan still analyzed the situation of the enemy and the enemy to several people first, and then everyone expressed their own opinions.

"No matter which direction it is not good to break through, the North China Plain is dominated by the Japanese cavalry and armored troops, and there is no dangerous terrain in this area, if our troops are cut off from the supply line by the Japanese army in depth, tens of thousands of troops may not be able to come back!"

The Japanese army's key defense made it impossible for the New 33rd Army to push it over at all, especially in North China, where various railway lines and highways extend in all directions, unlike in the Taihang Mountains, the speed of the Japanese army's maneuvers in these places is really jaw-dropping.

"The Pingjin area can't be fought, the cultural relics there are China's cultural treasures for hundreds or even thousands of years, once destroyed by artillery fire, we are all sinners of the country!"

The northern region is very close to the Pingjin area, and a charge from the eastern foot of Taihang Mountain can hit Beiping, but they don't dare to do it at all, the Pingjin area is not a small town, and the small town can be rebuilt if it is lost, but the Forbidden City and other cultural buildings will never be gone if they are gone, so the new 33rd Army can do limited things against the Japanese army, and it is precisely for this reason that Liao Fan is reluctant to do anything to the Japanese army.
