Chapter 350: Entering the Final Stage of Preparation for War
Li Ming and Song Tao left Lushun and returned to Vladivostok by boat. The more than 200,000 immigrants they brought back from Shandong this time made all the employees of the company very excited. The migrants will be sent to migrant camps in the towns of Biqu Ge www.biquge.info and Bac Ninh.
Next year, there will be a great demand for laborers in various departments, and the company's civil affairs committee has decided to concentrate on literacy and training for these immigrants in advance, and the whole process will continue until the spring of next year. In the process of training and learning, each department looks for the apprentices they need in the migrants.
After Li Ming returned, he reported the situation of the Shandong operation to all the members of the Standing Committee and members. He also put forward the idea of establishing intelligence stations in various parts of the Ming Dynasty.
"After we sweep Liaodong and annihilate the Houjin regime, history will completely change, and the situation in various parts of the Ming Dynasty will also change, and we must grasp the intelligence of all parts of the Ming Dynasty at any time. Therefore, it is imperative to establish a sound intelligence network in all parts of the Ming Dynasty.
Judging from the current situation, Da Ming is terminally ill, and even if there is no threat from the Houjin regime in Liaodong, this leaky broken ship will collapse sooner or later. We should also make targeted arrangements for the Ming Dynasty, Zhou Weifan's trip to Henan this time can be regarded as an attempt, if we can open up the Yellow River immigration channel, it will be of great significance to our future immigration work. ”
Gao Jianguo nodded and said: "The company's development speed is very fast, and our military commission cannot lag behind." In the course of this Shandong operation, the grassroots backbone of the troops showed good results, and the time was ripe for the troops to expand again. We must do our best to make a new round of reorganization plan for the troops.
Comrades, I declare that starting today, the Military Commission will enter the final stage of preparations for war against the post-Kim regime. Let's do it, everybody! We must be fully prepared to fight for the future sweep of the post-Kim regime. Kill all the Tartars in Liaodong! ”
After the meeting, the Military Commission also began to get busy. The first is the rearmament of the existing forces. A new round of arms expansion and warfare plans has also been vigorously launched.
As a field unit, the teaching brigade was expanded into a division-level unit. The newly formed First Field Division has two brigades and six regiments under its jurisdiction, and is also equipped with an artillery regiment, a field logistics subdivision (battalion level), an engineer battalion, and a battalion directly under the division.
The garrison brigade was expanded into four garrison brigades as a second-line garrison force. Each brigade has six garrison battalions, one machine gun battalion, one battalion directly under the brigade, and other combat and logistical units.
These garrisons include the Jeju Island Garrison, Bac Ninh Town Garrison, Luzon Garrison, Sakhalin Garrison, Tanegashima Garrison, and the soon-to-be-established Arthur Island Garrison.
As a mountain chasseur unit, the field regiment was expanded into a mountain brigade, which was divided into six mountain battalions, one machine gun battalion, one battalion directly under the brigade, and other combat and logistical support units.
At present, the task of the mountain regiment is to take the platoon as a unit. He was on duty in the Tunpu established in the mountainous and forested area of the Far East-controlled district. In the future, it will continue to move westward and slowly encroach on the backward financial control area. Once preparations for war began, the mountain brigades would mobilize the indigenous militia attached to the Zhanzhì district in battalions and companies and sprinkle them among the mountains and forests of eastern Liaodong.
As an assault force directly under the Military Commission, the Japanese Death Army Wing is not in the expansion plan this time. However, three independent death brigades were added, which were attached to the Luzon garrison, Tanegashima garrison, and Jeju garrison. It is mainly used to deal with regional conflicts and is used as an overseas combat readiness force of the Military Commission.
The Overseas Corps has always been a supernumerary unit of the Military Commission. But after several battles over the years. The officers and men of the overseas corps brigades were very satisfied with the Central Military Commission. It was decided by the Military Commission. The Overseas Corps will be formally incorporated into the formal establishment of the Military Commission. As a second-line unit of the Military Council.
Each brigade has six infantry battalions, one machine gun battalion, and one battalion directly under the brigade for combat and logistics units. They were equipped with four support weapons, including Type 29 40mm grenade launchers, Type 29 water-cooled heavy machine guns, Type 29 60mm mortars, and Type 29 70mm infantry guns, all of which were also installed at all levels.
At present, the eight overseas brigades of the Overseas Corps are named the Wolf Brigade, the Grizzly Bear Brigade, the Tiger Brigade, the Wild Lion Brigade, the Cheetah Brigade, the Rhino Brigade, the Giant Elephant Brigade, and the Mad Dog Brigade. These names are quite a match for overseas travelers.
The engineer battalion was also expanded into an engineer regiment directly under the Military Commission, equipped with various Soviet-style field engineer vehicles. Moreover, all troops, garrison areas, and brigade-level units are now equipped with an engineer company directly under them.
The Logistics Department of the Central Military Commission has also successively established more than 10 logistics subdivisions. Logistics and combat readiness warehouses have been set up in Vladivostok, Biquge www.biquge.info Town, Bac Ninh Town, various overseas garrison areas, and several important military ports and wharves of the Admiralty. Ensure the supply of all kinds of combat and logistical materials in case of emergency.
With the exception of two caravans, amphibious planes and two helicopters, which must be flown by members of the Air Department, all 10 delta-wing aircraft have been flown by recruits. After nearly two years of continuous training in the air, the skills of delta-wing pilots and bombardiers have all met the combat requirements. The drone team is also all operated by ordinary non-commissioned officer fighters who have been trained for nearly two years.
Ground maintenance, repair and other work of the soldiers. The technical level is also becoming more and more mature. Once on combat duty, each delta-wing aircraft will have a field aviation team of twelve members to ensure that each delta-wing aircraft is marching, assembling, loading, maintaining, and taking off and landing, as well as providing ground navigation for the delta-wing aircraft to return home.
At present, in addition to the field airfield in Vladivostok, field airfields and air force maintenance and supply depots have also been established in various overseas garrison areas. In Jeju, Amami Oshima in the Ryukyus, Luzon, Sakhalin and the future Arthur garrison, airship take-off and landing areas will also be built.
After several months of flying, the No. 1 airship developed by the Development Center of the Great Airship Program has collected all kinds of numbers, and has now been handed over to the Ministry of the Air Force and has begun its official service.
In the next step, the large airship research and development center will develop a new generation of semi-rigid airship with a wooden frame, which is expected to be successfully developed and tested before the winter of this year. Once the parameters meet the requirements for research and development, the Air Department will proceed with the formation of an airship unit.
The CMC has also set up an equipment repair shop in Vladivostok to repair and regularly maintain the troops' weapons, vehicles, and other equipment. In the next step, all garrison areas and brigade-level units should also establish equipment repair and maintenance units.
After several years of hard work, the field hospital of the Central Military Commission presided over by Xiao Zhongliang has trained a large number of battlefield medical personnel, and most of the other field doctors are selected from immigrants. At present, each brigade-level unit and each garrison area of the army will be assigned a platoon-level health team.
In the past few years, the PLA has recruited several thousand recruits of various technical branches, and these recruits have taken on important responsibilities in the communications, logistics, artillery, automobile, maintenance, and repair positions of various units of the Central Military Commission.
The company's musket militia company has now grown to 100 and the number of well-trained musket militia has reached 15,000. They will also participate in future wars, cooperate with the large army to maintain law and order in the occupied areas, and be responsible for the management of the grassroots level in the occupied areas. In the past two years, the company has done its best to train them.
This year, the arquebus militia company will also be greatly expanded during the winter training period, dramatically expanding to 200 arquebus militia companies, bringing the number of grassroots militia to 30,000.
The number of newly annexed indigenous tribes in the Far East has accelerated sharply since this spring, and the number of scattered indigenous tribes has increased. There are nearly 100 indigenous villages scattered throughout the Far East. The company's control district is expanding massively to the west.
Last year, nearly 10,000 indigenous militiamen achieved very satisfactory results in their winter training, and the combat effectiveness of the indigenous militia that underwent winter training has markedly increased, especially in the dense mountains and old forests, and the ability to coordinate operations with platoons as units has been greatly improved, and they are no longer the brute force that relied on individual bravery.
Each indigenous militia platoon of 30 will also be equipped with 8-10 arquebuses to increase their firepower. 100 people were assigned to every 10 indigenous villages to set up an indigenous militia artillery team, equipped with 10 Huzun guns and small Fulong machine guns. Once the militia begins to mobilize, they will also quickly assemble in the mountainous Paitun Fort and participate in the battle with the large group of militia.
This time the expansion of the army required a lot of soldiers, and the immigrants in Vladivostok were boiling again. Every time the military commission expands the army, it will cause great repercussions, and even the indigenous villages in the zhì district have received the news. All the immigrants were excited, hoping to be selected for this recruitment exercise by the Military Commission.
The Central Military Commission decided to establish a new training team camp and separate the training team from the main force. The new barracks were built in the www.biquge.info town of Biquge, the barracks have been completed, the entire barracks covers a large area, the Far East Army and Navy Command College, the Non-commissioned Officer Training College, and the non-commissioned officer colleges of various technical arms are all located in this huge modern barracks.
After more than a month of busyness, the reorganization of the Central Military Commission has finally been completed. All recruits have also been recruited, and they will be stationed in the new training team camp for five months of basic training for recruits.
The scale of the expansion of the 1st Field Division in the Far East was relatively large, and the lack of backbone company platoon non-commissioned officers and a large number of veterans were transferred from the garrison brigade, which directly set up the shelves for the field division to add four new infantry regiments. The impact on the combat effectiveness of field divisions was relatively small. Fortunately, the backbone cadres at all levels of the company, squad and platoon of all units are equipped with one principal and three deputies, and even the political cadres have reached two or even three configurations.
So on the whole, the garrison brigade has basically made up a simple frame of a garrison brigade, and the rest of the soldiers have to rely on a large number of recruits to make up for it. However, after all, the garrison units belong to the second-line troops, and after more than half a year of training, they will be able to form a basic combat effectiveness.
The number of recruits recruited this time is the largest in the history of the Far Eastern Military Commission, and the army arms involve more than a dozen arms of the army, such as infantry, machine artillery, communications, logistics, and engineers. The Central Military Commission has assigned a large number of key non-commissioned officers to serve as squad and platoon leaders of the newly trained units.
After the reorganization of the troops was completed, a vigorous large-scale training began, and tens of thousands of new and old troops stationed in various parts of the Central Military Commission were all engaged in intense training. (To be continued......) R1292
