Chapter 1052: Towards Regularization
Ma Hongkui's troops have just been reorganized, and there are still many uncertain factors in it, if they go to the battlefield, no longer obey orders, and directly take refuge in Ma Bufang, this is just dozing off and someone gives him a pillow, and Ma Bufang is still happy to die?
Commander Chen frowned, he also knew very well that this situation was not impossible to happen, once this happened, it was not a matter of him as a commander, and thousands or even tens of thousands of soldiers would die from his wrong decision!
"First of all, we will retain the establishment and their fixed subordinate officers, and the officers we send must also keep up in time, first of all, we must publicize and educate, and I will not let them face to face with Ma Bufang's troops before they are very sure!"
Although the cavalry is not suitable for future wars, it is a very suitable force to deal with Ma Bufang now, and the only thing to worry about is the instability of the cavalry under Ma Hongkui!
Liao Fan shook his head helplessly when he learned that Commander Chen had kept Ma Hongkui's cavalry and prepared to use it on the battlefield!
"Brother Fan, isn't Commander Chen's method bad?" Bai Chongxi asked.
"Whether the solution is good or not, it's not up to me to have the final say, if you were the general of those cavalry, what would you think?" Liao Fan asked Bai Chongxi rhetorically.
"I don't know!"
"I'm one of those cavalry generals, and I will think that the Northwest Military Region is using someone else's hands to eliminate them, so as to stabilize the Northwest Military Region!"
Ma Hongkui's troops have just been reorganized, people's hearts are fluctuating, and what those generals are most afraid of is losing their military status and becoming an ordinary person! For them, in the army there are roots of life!
But now that Commander Chen suddenly sent them to the battlefield, these generals must be thinking that Commander Chen deliberately sent them to the battlefield to die!
"That'...... If this is really the case, isn't it dangerous for our troops? Bai Chongxi asked.
"It's dangerous, but I believe that Commander Chen will make a better arrangement, maybe he already has a way to deal with it!" Commander Chen is not a reckless person, since he dares to do this, he must have thought of the bad side of things!
"Brother Fan, did you think of something?" Bai Chongxi was curious.
"Don't say it, don't say it! In case I said that Commander Chen's method was different from mine, wouldn't that be a slap in the face! Liao Fan said with a smile that he had a way in his heart, which could not only prevent Ma Hongkui's cavalry from not fighting back on the battlefield, but also strengthen their sense of belonging to the Northwest Military Region.
"Brother Fan, you don't mean much, let's talk about it!" Bai Chongxi thought about it for a long time, but he didn't think of a good way.
"You'll know when the time comes, why are you in such a hurry! By the way, follow me to visit three military regions now, do you have any ideas for yourself? Liao Fan asked Bai Chongxi.
"What thoughts?"
"Didn't you keep asking me to give you a troop belt? Now I haven't been to the Southwest Military Region, and as for the Central Plains Military Region, there are still many troops to enrich it, and there are no complete troops for you to bring! ”
The reason why he took Bai Chongxi to so many places was to let Bai Chongxi choose a suitable place by himself, the four military regions had already completed three, and it was time for Bai Chongxi to plan for himself!
Bai Chongxi didn't react at all, he didn't expect Liao Fan to arrange troops for him so quickly, he hadn't stayed enough by Liao Fan's side, he hoped to spend more time by Liao Fan's side, after such a long time, he had indeed seen a lot of things by Liao Fan's side!
"I ...... Van Ge ...... Isn't it that I haven't gone to the Southwest Military Region yet, wait until I think about it! ”
"Okay, it's good to think about it more, but if you say it, I'll give you a corps of troops, and it will depend on your ability in the future, if you have the ability, you will climb to the commander of the military region, and even my position, if you can't bring an army, I'll let you take a regiment!"
The time of following Liao Fan is not short, and following Liao Fan all the way, Bai Chongxi is not a hard-hearted person, and he can be regarded as having feelings for Liao Fan.
"By the way, tomorrow you accompany me to the troops of the Northwest Military Region to see it again, and then prepare the day after tomorrow, and we will go to the Northwest Military Region the day after tomorrow, this trip is over!"
Of course, Liao Fan still had to go to see his military factory, as for whether to take Bai Chongxi there, it was not in Liao Fan's plan, because at that time, Liao Fan spent most of his time dealing with scientific researchers and engineers, not soldiers, so Bai Chongxi was not much use by Liao Fan's side!
Liao Fan of the Northwest Military Region is the most assured, after all, the foundation here is too weak, there is still a very long way to meet Liao Fan's requirements, and in the future, the Northwest Military Region is an important force to protect the country, Liao Fan does not want to let the foreign invade the country again, and can no longer rely on the depth of the country to defend against the enemy, otherwise even if he can win, the country will be left with devastation!
If you want to defend yourself against the enemy outside the country, you must have a strong enough force, at least at present, except for Fu Yisheng of the Seventh Army in the Northwest Military Region, no one can do what Liao Fan needs!
In the Northwest Military Region, the troops that originally belonged to the Eighth Route Army accounted for half of the troops, and the troops of the Eighth Route Army have retained a lot of excellent traditions, which makes people see at a glance that there is a very big difference between them and other troops! Those are the old troops of the Eighth Route Army, and you can see it at a glance!
"Okay, the training is good, but the body is a little thinner, if only I could eat more!"
At the beginning, the living conditions of the Eighth Route Army were poor, some soldiers only had two meals a day, and with long-term training, many soldiers were skinny and bone-chested, and they looked weak!
Liao Fan patted a soldier on the shoulder, although now it is possible to ensure that all soldiers can eat three meals a day, but this does not mean that the system of soldiers has been changed, and it is obvious here that you can't eat fat in one bite!
The soldier immediately reported to Liao Fan: "Report to Brother Fan, you must eat well in the future!" ”
"Hahaha, good, people are iron and steel, eat well, eat well, we have the strength to train, to have the strength to fight the enemy, I don't have any other requirements for today, I just hope you can eat well, at least everyone should be like this one carrying a machine gun, and the physical fitness should not be too bad!" Liao Fan patted the chest of the soldier carrying the machine gun.
The physical fitness of the soldiers determines the combat effectiveness of the army, and from the current point of view, the bodies of the soldiers cannot even reach the basic health status, this is the situation of the Northwest Military District! If you pull out the soldiers of the Northwest Military Region and the soldiers in Liao Fan's old unit of the Northeast Military Region at this time, you will find a huge gap between the soldiers' bodies!
Such a unit looks very distressing, it is all caused by long-term hunger, a few years ago not many people in the country were able to eat a full meal, not even wild vegetables, it is too difficult to have a strong body!
When the whole country began to stabilize, the granary was gradually filled, the people could eat enough, and the army could also eat enough, nothing else dared to guarantee, but Liao Fan could still let the troops of the whole country eat a full meal!
After Liao Fan's lecture, the troops once again devoted themselves to training, and the instructors in charge of training were all veterans and officers from Taihang Mountain, who had already contributed to the country on the battlefield, and now they could not return to the battlefield because of physical reasons, but they could still do a lot of things!
Although Liao Fan does not dare to guarantee that this is the best training method in the world, this is definitely a training method suitable for Chinese soldiers!
Of course, Liao Fan didn't just look at those troops equipped with better weapons, he also looked at those troops who hadn't had time to change their equipment yet!
There are too many troops in the country, and the reorganization of the troops of various military regions has exhausted Liao Fan's inventory, and Liao Fan asked Du Weize to imitate the Ninth Five-Year Assault Rifle, so the production of other guns has declined!
"I assure you that you will all be able to get new weapons by the end of this year!"
The gun factory has also begun to expand on a large scale, and guns are easier to produce than other more advanced and complex weapons, so Liao Fan estimates that by the end of the year, the troops across the country will be able to replace with new equipment! But it's still impossible to have enough stock!
A huge country has a huge population base, and naturally it also has a huge army, and the inventory of weapons needed is also huge!
Many soldiers have coveted those units that have changed their equipment, and their combat effectiveness is already stronger than their undressed troops, and since they have changed their new equipment, the firepower of a squad has to be on top of the firepower of one of their companies, how can they not be greedy!
Of course, when they are greedy, they also work harder to train, because good equipment will always be given priority to better troops, in order to not do the second equipment change next time, they will train hard to improve their overall combat effectiveness!
According to Liao Fan's requirements, in wartime, the troops have to recruit new recruits once a quarter, but these tasks are recruited by the recruitment office, and then uniformly trained, and finally assigned to each military region!
This is mainly to prevent the formation of local secession, after all, the troops in a place are all people from this place, and they can easily form local protection, and other places cannot be inserted with needles and water, and once the army commander takes advantage of this shortcoming, it is easy to form a local secession!
In the Northwest Military Region, some commanders are from the southeast coast, and some soldiers are from the Central Plains.
After some inspection, the Northwest Military Region can be regarded as moving towards a normalized route, and it is no longer a wild road, and Liao Fan also asked to design a special military uniform for them, a military uniform suitable for the northwest environment, as for the matter of fighting with Ma Bufang, Liao Fan does not need to be in command, he only needs to get the news from Commander Chen!
