Chapter 589: Special Forces
A new round of reform soon began. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The current reform is mainly aimed at the combat effectiveness of the troops, and this point is not difficult for the troops who enjoy the US military salary.
It's not like "money makes the devil grind" or anything. Of course, there are such ingredients, but how much does it cost to calculate a person's life?
The problem is that most Chinese have forced the Japanese to a desperate point and have to resist, so why not make more money when they have to fight with the Japanese anyway? What's more, this extra money is not a little bit, recruits 12 rupees, according to the exchange rate at this time, you can exchange for 3 US dollars, even if the soldiers are recruits in those years, they can be regarded as a local tyrant when they go home.
Therefore, everyone rushed to squeeze into the expeditionary force, and this could easily create an atmosphere of fierce competition in the army......
If this is in a unit that is only in charge of food or only a symbolic salary, of course, the soldiers will not be very motivated...... Damn, this has to be beaten and scolded by the commander at every turn, not to mention, when you go to the battlefield, you are all playing with your life, and you can't even eat, why bother? If your brain is in water, you will rush to be it, and if you want to be fired, it's just right!
This is one of the reasons why the national army often needs to catch strong men and is unable to carry out effective training.
But if the military pay is dozens of times that of other troops, then the situation is different...... If you don't do it, dozens of people outside are lining up and sharpening their heads to get in! Therefore, you must obey the orders of your commander, you must keep up with the troops, and you must train carefully...... In case you don't perform well and get fired, it will be difficult to get involved in such a good errand again.
So Zhang Chi just asked those instructors to follow the last elimination system, and recruited the best from the militia to supplement the army, and mobilized the entire northeast military and civilian training.
Of course, when the survival of the fittest was carried out, the officers in the Chiang-affiliated units whose quality was not good enough and relied on their connections to the higher positions were further removed, and after several rounds of training, very few of the Chiang-affiliated officers were able to keep their official positions, and even if these officers of this small unit could keep their official positions...... Their powers have been basically hollowed out, and when they are soldiers, they all listen to instructors, instructors, and political commissars, and company commanders, battalion commanders, etc., so they can only speak if they lead soldiers to fight.
Zhang Chi relied on this to firmly grasp several Chiang-related troops in his hands, and in only half a month before and after, although the high-ranking officers of the three Chiang-affiliated troops had not moved, the army commanders were still those army commanders, and the staff officers were still those staff officers, but the only thing they could move freely was the guard company.
Of course, this refers to a state of non-war in peacetime, and in case of a war, these officers must still be given the power to mobilize troops, otherwise the war will not be fought...... This is basically the same as the system of our party, which also "listens to the instructor when there is no war, and listens to the company commander when the gun goes out."
But Zhang Chi felt that these were not enough.
When the army was vigorously carrying out reform and training, Zhang Chi found students who were extremely poor.
"Third battalion commander!" Zhang Chi poured a cup of coffee for the extremely poor students and said, "Let's talk about my thoughts on this mission behind enemy lines!" ā
"Yes, Deputy Commander!" The extremely poor student was a little flattered and took the coffee, but when it was time to really say it, he was stunned: "Deputy commander...... At this time, I don't know what to report! ā
"Tell me about the difficulties you encountered in carrying out your mission!" Zhang Chi said: "There are ...... If there are tasks like this in the future, what do you think you need to improve? ā
After thinking about it, the extremely poor student replied, "There are many difficulties. For example, we are not familiar with equipment, we are used to American equipment, and many times we have to use devil's equipment when performing tasks...... We often hold back our stomachs full of fire, and incidentally, even our tactics are somewhat useless, so it seriously affects our combat effectiveness. ā
"Hmm!" Zhang Chi nodded.
This is indeed a problem, American tactics are often applied to the firepower of American equipment, and American tactics are used without the support of American equipment firepower...... It's like using a small gun as a cannon, and of course there will be problems in actual combat.
"And for example......" The extremely poor student continued: "We can't understand Japanese, and we can't use Japanese to exchange information with the Japanese...... This deprives us of a lot of opportunities to get intelligence! ā
Zhang Chi nodded again, after all, this is an activity in enemy-occupied areas, and not knowing Japanese will indeed cause great inconvenience.
"And the tactical side of things! Most of the soldiers are accustomed to charging into battle and large corps of troops working together, and now they are divided into such small units...... Everyone has no bottom in their hearts! ā
Of course, this is also normal, and there are only about 50 soldiers led by the extremely poor students...... Lost in the hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops is almost a drop in the ocean, which of course requires a higher psychological quality and psychological preparation.
Then some issues were discussed, and Zhang Chi said to the extremely poor students: "The situation is like this, considering that there may be a need to carry out tasks like this in the future, I plan to establish a special force, its main task is not to fight the enemy face to face on the battlefield, but to go deep into the enemy to obtain intelligence, assassination, sabotage of important strategic targets, etc., I plan to be in charge of you, what do you think?" ā
"Deputy Commander!" The extremely poor students were a little embarrassed: "Before I went out on this mission, I also thought that such a mission was not a big deal, wasn't it just pretending to be a common person to engage in intelligence?" As long as you are bold and careful, there is no hurdle that you can't pass, but after experiencing this time...... I just realized that this is really not easy to fuck. I'm worried that this force won't be able to do it! ā
"It's okay!" Zhang Chi patted the shoulder of the extremely poor student and said, "Be confident, I'll train with you, no problem!" ā
"Yes!" The extremely poor student responded.
It's just that although the extremely poor students should respond, they have some doubts in their hearts...... Zhang Chi has never experienced a battle like this, so how does he know how to train?
But thinking about it, the extremely poor students didn't ask.
I don't know that this is actually a modern special forces, this thing is still a new thing in this era, but it is already familiar to Zhang Chi.
The reason why Zhang Chi wanted to train such a special force was because when he was fighting in the Northeast, he found that sometimes the soldiers in his hands were not enough, and sometimes even if there were many soldiers, they were not enough...... Because none of those soldiers seem to be useful.
For example, when the unit of extremely poor students was sent to the northeast to collect intelligence, or when the troops were to be airborne to Qiqihar and Harbin to seize the poison gas bomb and bacteriological bomb bases...... There is actually a lot of luck in carrying out these tasks.
It is not the same if there is a special forces dedicated to these tasks.
