Of course, Chen Kefu was not joking, seeing that Da Sui had not had a good life for a few years, of course he had to plan early. Now he has 80,000 soldiers, which has reached a limit, and it is impossible for him to increase the number of soldiers. And in today's situation, no amount of increase in the number of people is useless.

After all, the army is not a simple math problem, not the bigger the number, the more powerful.

Since the number of people can no longer be increased, then only the combat effectiveness of the army increases. For the current Liaodong Army, the biggest weakness is that there are too many new soldiers, and as long as they can persist in this, they will be able to temper a group of high-quality soldiers through war and in the future. But there is another weakness that cannot be solved by time and war.

That is, the officers of the Northeast Army today have the same topic, especially the issue of low-level officers. Well, after thinking about it, Chen Kefu also felt that the only way to conduct systematic training was to use new methods to train a large number of grassroots officers in a short period of time. Moreover, through the training of the military academy, he can also input some loyal thoughts into these officers, and strive to cultivate a group of grassroots leading officers who are loyal to him and Chen Kefu.

As for the old man Li Benlei who felt that he was not training future squad leaders for the army, but training jinshi for the imperial examination, he just smiled. If the non-commissioned officers trained according to his plan, as long as they pass the test of war in the war, then these people are absolutely qualified for a higher position, and even continue to grow, becoming an important help for him.

Moreover, a large number of literate military officers can also be turned into local administrative officials when needed. For him, who has already made up his mind to compete for the world, this is also training preparatory officials for his future.

"Old man, think about it, if in the future" a large number of young non-commissioned officers who are educated, idealistic, and more patriotic, and there are not many stubborn soldiers and ruffians who are accustomed to joining the army and serving as the most basic non-commissioned officers. These people are not afraid of death, they are more courageous, you say, why should we refuse such a plan? ”

"If it really does what you say, then why should I say no." Li Benlei smiled, noncommittal, since it was just a discussion now, there was no need for him to argue with something that was still on paper.

For Chen Kefu, this non-commissioned officer lecture is only part of his plan for future officers.

"Old man, the non-commissioned officer school is the foundation of the future of our army, but this is a long-term plan, so we can put it to the end. I also have a short-term plan in this plan, and I plan to set up an officer training company in each regiment in the army, an officer training regiment in a division, and an officer training brigade in the headquarters. Taking the teaching company as an example, a certain number of outstanding squad platoon leaders are selected as instructors in the regiment, and then several cadet platoons are set up to "train non-commissioned officers and squad leaders in peacetime." ”

That is to say, the training of the training team is basically all time-tested veterans who have been promoted to the rank of non-commissioned officer, including the current squad leaders of each squad: In wartime, some of these non-commissioned officers trained in the training team are enriched to grass-roots combat units, and some are directly commanded by the regimental headquarters, and usually act as sharp knives or reserves in the most critical battles, and such reserves are all composed of non-commissioned officers, and their combat effectiveness will inevitably be the strongest, which can very well solve the problem that there are too many new recruits in our current army and there are no troops with strong combat effectiveness. ”

"Teaching the troops is different from the non-commissioned officers teaching martial arts, the trainees are still soldiers, and they still have to rush forward when they fight, but these people are learning with the army. However, these cadets cannot send them into a dangerous battlefield unless they have to. Even if all the other battalions of a regiment are gone, as long as there is still this teaching company, this unit will not collapse: conversely, once the teaching company is gone, I am afraid that this unit will only be left with an empty shell, because their backbone has been broken."

The old man nodded, Chen Kefu's method can be said to be really good, "Even if it can train non-commissioned officers, it will not reduce the combat effectiveness of the troops." Moreover, there is such a training team composed entirely of non-commissioned officers, and the role it can play is also very large. ”

"Your idea is good, there are at least three non-commissioned officers in a squad, and if only one is transferred at a time for rotation training, it is not a big problem, I think it will work." Is this the case for the rest of the teaching group and the instructors? ”

"Each division has a teaching regiment, and the teaching regiment specially rotates the existing platoon commanders and platoon commanders in the division. The regiment also implements a rotational training system, that is, it takes turns to train mine platoon commanders and platoon commanders in various subordinate units on a three-month period. Experienced officers of the rank of lieutenant were selected from the army as instructors, and the regiment was set up with three cadet battalions, with the cadets serving as squad and platoon leaders at all levels, and the best quality soldiers were selected from the whole division, the number of which was still 2,000 per regiment, and in wartime, this regiment would become the strongest reserve regiment in the whole division. ”,

"And in the military headquarters, we will establish a teaching brigade, and the task of the teaching brigade is to train the unconscious company commanders and company commanders in the entire Northeast Army in rotation. The teaching brigade will specially select experienced captains and officers at the major level from the army as instructors to conduct rotational training for all active company commanders and company commanders in the army. The teaching brigade has two regiments and eight battalions, with a total number of 5,000 people, and in addition to the company commanders who have been trained at all levels, soldiers with good quality will also be transferred from the entire Northeast Army to the teaching brigade. All the trainees served as company and platoon commanders in the training brigade. In wartime, they will be the general reserve of the whole army! ”

"The rotation training company and platoon commander is generally 1-3 months, and the training course leader is generally 4-6 months. The training focuses on tactics, mounted archery, and cultural knowledge. Trainees are required to have a good tactical level, combat ability, and ability to organize, command, train, and manage troops after training. In the long run, this will strengthen the capabilities of the lower ranks of our entire force. In the short term, it can also solve the problem that although the entire Northeast Army has a large number of troops, its combat effectiveness has seriously declined due to the excessive number of new soldiers. ”

The old man thought about it for a long time, and felt that although this matter sounded rich and fresh, but after thinking about it carefully, he didn't find anything unreliable, so he nodded and said, "Anyway, the new addition is only a few numbers, and the personnel are all drawn from various armies, and the number of troops has not increased, I agree with your plan 1."

However, tomorrow the troops will rush to the Liaoshui battlefield, I don't think this plan will be announced for the time being, or wait until this ambush is over, what do you think? ”

Chen Kefu smiled and said, "Of course, there is no problem, I just asked for your opinion first." Now that you've agreed, I'll make a detailed plan when the next ambush is over. I will put forward the rectification plan 1 at the military council of the headquarters, and then I will listen to everyone's opinions and improve the whole plan. ”

The old man listened quietly, and saw that although Chen Kefu is now completely in control of the entire Northeast Army, he will not blindly act arbitrarily many times, but often take it out at the meeting for everyone to discuss together, and he is also very happy. Looking at Chen Kefu's eyes, he was even more full of deep concern.

For this young boss, the old man will more often unconsciously regard him as his grandson who has already died in battle.

Feeling the concern in the old man's eyes, Chen Kefu's heart also flowed through a warm current.

Although now he has won victory after victory in Liaodong, and he has been promoted again and again in a short period of time. Now he is already a much higher position than the old man Li Benlei, but in the face of the old man, he can still see from the other party's eyes that many times the old man does not treat him as a boss.

More often, the old man still regarded him as the hairy general who didn't understand when the barracks were first built, and he was half an apprentice and half a child.

"Break the army, old man, I know that you are extraordinary, you are different from Qiu Ba like me, and you are destined to achieve extraordinary achievements. Ever since you were ordered to set up a broken barracks, I've watched you all the way. This sword mountain and gun forest in Liaodong, bloody rain and bloody wind, you are becoming more and more mature along the way. Especially now, there are many things that an old man like me would never have thought of. I can't teach you anything, and now your views have gone farther and more profound than I do. But I still want to say that you are young, and there is still a long way to go, no matter what, as long as you can still use my old bones in the future, you can just say it, as long as I can help, I will definitely support you. ”

Chen Kefu smiled slightly, "In my eyes, you will always be the old man who taught me when I first built the barracks. Not only have you always been my best right-hand man, but you are also more like my relatives many times, like my relatives in Chenjiazhuang Mao Bo in Zhuo County. Between us, we will never need to be so polite, if there is trouble, I will definitely be the first to ask you for help. ”

"Break the army, then don't you do it if you break the army and talk about martial arts? I think this lecture hall is still very useful for the newly promoted officers in the army. ”

"Yes, it will definitely continue. We have a long-term plan for running a non-commissioned officer training hall, and the purpose of setting up a training company, a teaching regiment, and a teaching brigade in the army is to step up the rotation training of existing classes.

Platoon, company-level officers, and secondly, to allow each department to have an elite reserve. ”

"But the lecture hall is different, and the lecture hall is specially used by us to train middle and upper-level officers.

I intend to offer training courses for officers at the battalion level, training courses for officers at the regimental level, and refresher courses for generals at and above the brigade commander level when they are not fighting. Similar to the non-commissioned officers' martial arts halls, our army-breaking martial arts halls will train all middle- and upper-level officers on active duty in the army at different levels, step by step and cavalry, so as to enhance their tactical level, combat ability, and ability to organize, command, train, and manage troops. It also saves these guys from always messing with me whenever they have free time. ”

The old man smiled gently, "Old man, I will fully support you, the time is not early, you should go back and rest early." As soon as the fifth watch arrives tomorrow, the army will be dispatched and rush to Liaoshui. I really hope that after this battle, the Liao people will honestly stop messing with us again, and let us spend a good winter in this Liaodong. ”

It's the last day of the end of the month, and if you still have a ticket, vote for me, but don't expire, what a waste if it expires...... Wasting is not a good habit!
