Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏreadx; In the huge conference room of the Ministry of Planning, Chen Jingyun sat on the main seat, and on both sides of the long round table in front of him, like several military meetings of the Joint Staff in the past, sat a lot of generals of the National Army, among these generals were some important generals of the General Staff, such as Yuan Fang and Chen Yi, in fact, they would attend almost every major military meeting, and it was said that they often reported the military situation to Chen Jingyun, and one of the two of them would report the ambiguous master Shuhe member loginAlthough it is said that one of the two of them is the chief of the General Staff, One is that the director of the Operations Department is very different, in addition to the two of them, there are also deputy directors of the General Staff and the Director of the Strategy Department, the Education Department, the Transportation Department, the Communications Department and other directors, but the actual work in the General Staff is mainly based on the Operations Division, so to a certain extent, Chen Yi, the director of the Operations Department, is the second-in-command of the General Staff, and the deputy chief of the General Staff is a very embarrassing position. I can only stay in the office and stare at the ceiling in a daze, this is not only the case with the General Staff, but also with the Armament Department, the Logistics Department, the Admiralty Department and the Air Force Department, and the post of deputy director is more embarrassing, and this power cannot be compared with the post of deputy director of the Beiyang War Department

If it weren't for Feng Qin's sudden serious illness and death, when Chen Jingyun didn't dare to transfer his right-hand man back from the front line at a critical juncture of the war in southern Jiangsu, he Yuan Fang would not have been able to succeed to the post of chief of staff

After Yuan Fang became the chief of the General Staff, although the position of deputy chief of the General Staff was still embarrassing, Shen Gang and Lin Zhaomin, the commanders of the first army who held real power, were not looked down upon, and even those division commanders such as Liang Xunqin were unwilling to waste a lot of time to be the deputy chief of the General Staff, but the post of deputy chief of the General Staff was also a senior position in the General Staff, and the military ranks assigned were lieutenant generals and major generals. For many colonels who have worked hard and want to be promoted to generals, it is fragrant, after all, those positions of division commanders and division directors with real power are not the most important turns, and the secondary ones are not as good as this deputy chief of staff, in case they are directly promoted after taking the same great luck as Yuan Fang, it is also a way to be promoted

So there are still a lot of people who are aiming at this deputy chief of staff

In the current system of the National Army, there are very few ways to be promoted to a general, because the current practice of the National Army is to hold a position all the time, not to be promoted after the years of seniority, in fact, even if there is seniority to promote the National Army, anyone who has the qualifications does not have enough qualifications, because the National Army has only been established for a few years, and it is absolutely impossible to stand out by time and seniority, maybe a few years later, the colleagues and classmates of the year will become generals, and he is still just a school officer, and the latest chapter of this book was first published from Shuhe In view of this, For example, the division commanders of each division, the brigade commander of each mixed brigade, and the chief of staff of each army, these positions are all the few major general positions in the field troops, and in terms of the current scale of the national army, there are only 22 major general positions in the field troops

In addition to the field troops, they are the departments within the command, and in terms of army generals, the promotion channels are naturally the staff department, the logistics department and the equipment department, but in fact, in the two major departments of the logistics department and the equipment department, the vast majority of generals are officers with technical surnames, and very few people from the three major sections of the infantry department, the cavalry department, and the artillery department can hold the position of director, and most of them are professional officers such as communications and logistics departments who are promoted. Therefore, the promotion path left for the officers of the three major sections is extremely narrow, and the major general positions of these three departments combined, including the deputy directors of various departments and the directors of various departments, can provide nearly 20 positions, but only more than half of the positions suitable for field officers, that is, non-technical positions, are about twelve or thirteen

These two major parts together can provide more than 30 major general positions, and how many colonels are waiting to be promoted, at least hundreds of people are staring at it, and with the expansion of the scale of the national army, all kinds of institutions are becoming more and more substantial, and the scale of school officers will be further improved, and not all of these major general positions can be taken out for colonels to be promoted, and there are always people who give up their positions to let future generations sit on them, and to make these major generals vacate their positions, Chen Jingyun will create more major general positions, or more lieutenant general positions, and in order to avoid hundreds or thousands of generals in an army of less than 200,000, it is impossible for Chen Jingyun to be promoted to generals without restraint, after all, he can't do the thing of promoting a regiment commander to a major general

The position of major general is so scarce, then whether it is a fictitious position or a position of real power, it is enough for those colonels to compete, and it doesn't matter if there is real power in promotion, the key is to raise the military rank, and then seek positions of the same rank in the future, such as those positions of brigade commander, division commander, and director of the Operations Department and Strategy Department

Chen Jingyun agrees with the competition among his generals, and only those who want to climb up can make Chen Jingyun valued, those who have a pure heart and few desires all day long, and put on a vulgar face are not what Chen Jingyun wants, his subordinates need to be ambitious, and most of the people who have no ambition are also incompetent people, because even if he is a genius, but if he doesn't do it, then he is no different from a mediocre talent, of course, this ambition is the need to keep within the scope of his control, Once they exceeded the scope of their acquiescence and wanted to rebel against them, Chen Jingyun didn't mind giving them a bad bomb

However, although his subordinates were vying for the position, Chen Jingyun did not directly let this embarrassing position be held by those who had just been promoted, but changed to another person, this person is Wang Qi (the name was wrong in the previous article, Wang Qi was written as Wang Lin) The latest chapter of the special teacher Wang Qi is a graduate of the second phase of the Chinese study abroad Lu Shi, after returning to China, he successively served as a teacher in the Fujian Garrison School, and the staff officer of the tenth town and the commander of the 19th Association Chen Jingyun launched the Fuzhou Uprising in Fuzhou. Almost all the senior officers of the Tenth Town were arrested, including Sun Daoren, the commander of the Tenth Town, Wang Qi, the chief staff officer and the commander of the 19th Co-Commander, Yue Kaixian, the military counselor, and even Hu Guigao, the commander of the 39th standard, first hid for two days, and then was found and took the initiative to surrender Among the many senior officers in the Tenth Town at that time, except for Chen Jingyun and Lin Zhaomin's joint uprising, the others were basically captured

At that time, due to the instability of power, Chen Jingyun even tried his best to suppress Lin Zhaomin, Xiao Qibin, Lin Wenying and others, not to mention those captured senior officers, and later Chen Jingyun's successively awarded the rank of major general to those senior Qing army generals who were willing to temporarily succumb to the national army, and named senior military advisers, in fact, they have been under house arrest

This has formed another group of generals in the National Army, that is, the so-called military advisers, all of whom are major generals or lieutenant generals, and the sources are all enemy generals who have been defeated by the National Army in the past two years and surrendered, including Long Jiguang's troops, including the Zhejiang Army, the Jiangxi Army, the Soviet Army, and the Eighth Division Brigade Commander Major General who surrendered last year, whether they want to or not, all of them have taken the name of military advisers, and in this process, some people are willing to really join the National Army. Serving Chen Jingyun, in this case, Chen Jingyun will also transfer them to some actual positions depending on the situation, and it is naturally impossible to continue to lead troops or serve as important positions such as director of the Operations Department, at most some minor and less important positions

And Wang Qi has experienced such a road since Xinhai, at first he was imprisoned for a month or two, and then he took the initiative to say that he was willing to join the National Army, and then he was hung up as a military adviser, although he was not closed, but he was still under house arrest, and after two months, he was sent to Fuzhou Military Academy as an instructor, and he was back to the teaching when he first returned to China, and he was also capable, and the teaching work was excellent, and he Jiang Fangzhen got involved, and later was promoted to the director of the Academic Affairs Office of the Fuzhou Military Academy under the recommendation of Jiang Fangzhen

During the period of the surging development of the national army, outsiders can see, as a member of the national army, he knows the potential of the national army better, he has not been in the field army he does not know, but from the Fuzhou Military Academy alone can see the level of the entire national army, as the only army officer school in the national army, Fuzhou Military Academy from a large amount of capital investment, the scale of rapid expansion, all kinds of teaching set up, and the early stage of the teaching force mainly rely on the instructors, after the instructors have returned to China, It is half of the instructors of the national army itself, the rest of the small half are American instructors, and the small half are hired retired officers from various countries

In order to be able to quickly train a large number of grass-roots officers, Fuzhou Military Academy recruits students once a month, and recruits students in the face of the whole country, as long as the students who are too far away and shy in their pockets send relevant letters of recommendation, then Fuzhou Military Academy will send them ferry tickets or train tickets, once they are enrolled, all fees are free, and they begin to receive relevant living allowances. The main purpose is to be able to quickly and continuously provide a large number of officers to the national army and the half-year senior version, mainly for the school officers to study, the lectures are mainly for the national army in the active senior generals, mainly to teach the strategic level of command art, but because the task of the national army is tense during the war, all those who have time to study are very few, so far there are only two classes, each class is only more than ten people

Fuzhou Military Academy replenishes a large number of grassroots officers to the National Army every month, and this situation is well known to Wang Qi, who knows the potential of the National Army, he has long wanted to make a career to get ahead, and actively runs among several generals in the National Army who are better than him, such as Jiang Fangzhen

Later, after the position of deputy chief of staff became vacant, Chen Jingyun was asked to mention him to serve as deputy chief of staff, Chen Jingyun did not have any special feelings for Wang Qi, although Wang Qi had a higher status than him when he was in the tenth town, but now Wang Qi, who he did not use, would have any impact on his power, and Wang Qi is indeed a capable person, it is more than enough to serve as the deputy chief of staff, and Wang Qi has always been very responsible after serving as deputy chief of staff, and try to avoid provoking Yuan Fang and the directors of the staff departmentOver time, he will become a transparent person in the eyes of people

But on an occasion like today, he will still be there, but as usual, there is not much room for him to speak

When Wang Qi was thinking in his heart, Chen Yi had already walked to the huge map opposite, and then said with the command list in his hand: "Marshal, commanders, colleagues, please look here!" ”
