Volume 4 The Battle of Unification Chapter 566 The Establishment of the Wehrmacht

After returning to Shenyang with the army, Wang Maoru immediately convened a military meeting of the whole national defense force, which was attended by all important military leaders, including Jiang Fangzhen, chief of the general staff, and Zhang Xiaozhun, deputy chief of the general staff, and more than 200 people. In the barracks of Shenyang's Beidaying, he first officially announced the restructuring of the Northeast Army, and the Northeast Frontier Army was changed to the National Defense Force of the Republic of China, and the original rather chaotic name was abolished. For example, the black warlords, the Northeast Army, the Border Guards, the Intervention Army, etc., all became ancient, and all the armies were unified and officially changed to the National Defense Forces.

After Wang Maoru announced that the Northeast Army would be changed to the National Defense Forces of the Republic of China, the names of the four general departments of the Northeast Army Command would be abolished, and the supreme command unit would be the National Defense Force Command Center, which would manage the four general departments of the National Defense Forces. The command center of the National Defense Forces is in charge of Wang Maoru, commander-in-chief of the National Defense Forces, and the four headquarters of the command center are the General Staff of the National Defense Forces, the General Security Department of the National Defense Forces, the General Logistics Department of the National Defense Forces, and the General Military Affairs Department of the National Defense Forces.

Wang Maoru served as commander-in-chief of the National Defense Forces and was awarded the rank of marshal

Jiang Fangzhen served as Chief of the General Staff of the National Defense Forces and was awarded the rank of general.

Li Delin served as the chief of security of the National Defense Forces and was awarded the rank of general.

He Rufei served as the chief military officer of the National Defense Forces and was awarded the rank of lieutenant general.

Mi Shaobai served as the chief of general logistics of the Wehrmacht, and was awarded the rank of lieutenant general.

In addition, among the officers, Ren Yuanxing served as the commander of the White Tiger Regiment of the Wehrmacht and was awarded the rank of general. The commanders of the remaining divisions were all awarded the rank of lieutenant general.

And for the officers who died in this operation, Mi Zhenbiao (assassinated) was awarded the rank of general. Long Qing (killed in battle) was awarded the rank of general, Xiong Bingtao (assassinated) was awarded the rank of general, Chang Guochun (assassinated) was awarded the rank of lieutenant general, Shu Hejun (killed in battle) was awarded the rank of major general, Zhu Huailong (assassinated) was awarded the rank of lieutenant general, Qi Dian (assassinated) was awarded the rank of colonel, Li Qiangguo (assassinated) was awarded the rank of colonel, and so on.

One of the things that attracted attention was the promotion of Ren Yuanxing, who had only three generals in the Wehrmacht. Ren Yuanxing is the only general who directly leads the army.

The military system of the Wehrmacht has also been regularized and modernized, and the miscellaneous titles of infantry divisions and army divisions have been abolished, and all have been changed to army divisions and regiments. The number is from the first to the eighteenth. The maximum operational establishment of the Wehrmacht was changed from an army division to an army corps, and now there is only the White Tiger Regiment for the time being. The legion will be named after the ancient Rui Beast of the Chinese nation, which is naturally the idea of hoping that the Rui Beast will guard China. Army divisions are divided into two types: infantry divisions and cavalry divisions, and three army brigades are under the jurisdiction of army divisions. The cavalry division has two cavalry brigades under its jurisdiction, in addition to the troops directly under the division headquarters, the supplementary regiment, and the logistics units of the military hospital division headquarters are also counted in the divisional combat queue. The names of the divisions and regiments of the Chinese Army are similar to those of the Japanese Army, but they are actually different, and the Chinese divisions and regiments adopt the three-three system. There are two kinds of divisions and regiments in Japan, one is the four-four system of the first type of division and the other is the small three-three system of the second type of division and regiment, and the number of Japanese division and regiment A is between 15,000 and 21,000 people, and the number of division and regiment B is about 10,000, and they can enjoy independent operational command power. The army divisions and regiments of the Chinese National Defense Forces adopt the three-three system, with 23,000 combat personnel and 1,000 indirect combat personnel in one army division and regiment, and they also enjoy independent operational command power. It can be said that the squadron has a larger establishment and greater authority for officers.

Of course, the power of the Wehrmacht's army divisions cannot be compared with the power of the officers of other warlord units in China, and the most important point is that the military expenses of the Wehrmacht are set by the General Staff. It is issued by the Ministry of Logistics, regularly reviewed by the Ministry of Security, and at the same time the Ministry of Military Affairs has to do third-party supervision, so to speak, and the warlord general takes a lot of money from the superiors. Compared with the fact that military salaries can be intercepted at will, the power is much smaller. But it's also much more formal. Wang Maoru hated eating military salaries, and killed one after another, no matter who this person was, and the joint jurisdiction of the four ministries was troublesome, but it effectively stopped the emergence of warlords in the army.

Subsequently, Lieutenant General He Rufei, chief of the general military affairs, announced the numbers of the current national defense forces and the temporary garrison locations, as for the defense area, Wang Maoru believed that the future international situation would change color, and the defense area at this time did not mean that it would not change in the future, especially in order to prepare for the war to recover the Far East, he moved many troops to Harbin, making Harbin a military center.

The 1st Division of the National Defense Force, stationed in Harbin, was commanded by Lieutenant General Li Pinxian and was under the jurisdiction of the 1st, 11th, and 12th Infantry Brigades.

The 14th Division of the National Defense Forces, stationed in Rehe, and the division commander, Lieutenant General Mao Ziping, has the 38th, 39th, and 40th Infantry Brigades under its command.

The 15th Division of the National Defense Force will be stationed in Shenyang, and the division commander, Lieutenant General Du Baosan, will have the 41st, 42nd, and 43rd Infantry Brigades under his command.

The 17th Division of the National Defense Army, stationed in Harbin, the division commander, Major General Lu Jin, under the jurisdiction of the 46th, 47th, and 48th Infantry Brigades.

The 18th Division of the National Defense Forces will be stationed in Changchun, and the division commander, Major General Chen Wenyun, will have the 49th, 50th, and 51st Infantry Brigades under its jurisdiction.

Another: General Ren Yuanxing, the commander of the White Tiger Legion, is stationed west of Xinjiang by the White Tiger Legion, and its army is under the jurisdiction of:

The 3rd Division of the National Defense Forces, stationed in Almaty, is under the command of Major General Wang Jiejun, under the jurisdiction of the 3rd and 13th Infantry Brigades and the 9th Cavalry Brigade.

10th Division of the Wehrmacht. Garrisoned in Almaty, the division commander Major General Zhao Qing, under the jurisdiction of the 28th, 29th, and 44th Infantry Brigades.

The 16th Cavalry Division of the Wehrmacht, garrisoned in Almaty, division commander Major General Makanranti. It has the 53rd and 54th Cavalry Brigades.

Independent Cavalry Division of the Wehrmacht Northern Cyprus. Garrisoned in Almaty, division commander Guo Buluo. Brigadier General Rong Hai, under the command of the 52nd Cavalry Brigade.

After the announcement, Wang Maoru ordered the three reserve divisions to be dispersed and replenished into the other 18 divisions. Except for the 11th and 16th Cavalry Divisions, which are fully staffed at 18,000 people, the remaining 16 infantry divisions and regiments are fully staffed at 24,000 people, and the total number of the Wehrmacht is 430,000, which is under the command of the Wehrmacht General Staff.

It is under the jurisdiction of the General Staff of the Wehrmacht. The provincial armed police brigades began to be downsized and disarmed, and the armed police brigades were reduced from the original strength of 6,000 to 3,000. Except for those who have been dismissed from the armed forces, the rest of them are incorporated into the active police and serve as criminal police, patrol police, and people's police, which are under the jurisdiction of government departments and police departments. As a result, the total number of armed police will be reduced from 60,000 to 30,000, and the armed police will be placed under the direct command of the General Security Department of the National Defence Forces.

All military institutions, military scientific research institutes, arsenals, military-related factories, and heavy industry factories belong to the General Logistics Department of the Wehrmacht. All of the above units organized militias, which could be quickly put into battle in wartime and were under the command of the General Logistics Department.

In order to reduce capital investment, the reserve law, which was originally intended to be implemented in all territories, was forced to be implemented only in Heilongjiang Province. That is to say, all adult men in Heilongjiang Province. Between the ages of 16 and 46, they had to go through 15 border inspection missions.

The Northeast Military and Political Department, which presided over Wang Maoru's territory, was reorganized into the Special Affairs Committee of the National Defense Forces North of the Great Wall, referred to as the National Committee, and Wang Maoru served as the chairman of the National Committee. Tang Shaoyi (Governor of Heilongjiang Province) and Ma Liuzhou (Governor of Liaoning Province) served as vice presidents, and Yang Du served as secretary general. Zhang Kuian, Zhang Hongyang, Li Ziwen, and Fang Hong trusted the secretary, and the rest of them were Zhang Xiaozhun (Director of the Reserve Planning Department), Xu Nailin, Bai Baotian, Song Ziwen, Halbara (Governor of Rehe), Guo Zongxi (Governor of Jilin), Yang Zengxin (Governor of Xinjiang), Dorji Fearlam (Governor of Mongolia) Chen Yi (Deputy Governor of Mongolia), Yuan Keding (** official), Yan Fu, Gu Weijun, Li Ziwen, Lu Shaohua, Chu Yong, Gui Fang, Shi Shaoyang (Acting Governor of Suiyuan), Zhou Daotai, Chang Rujiu (pacification envoy of Taixi Province), Jing Xueling (Anxi Provincial Pacification Envoy), Wang Guoku. The above people are in charge of all areas of government administration, legislation, economy, people's livelihood, construction, culture, diplomacy, education, race, clan, population, immigration and other fields in all the territories under Wang Maoru's command. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this State Council is a small State Council under Wang Maoru's subordinates, and with the State Committee's strategic planning, Wang Maoru can have ample time to further strengthen the army.

Among them, with Ma Liuzhou as the core, Tang Shaoyi, Shi Shaoyang, Harbara, Guo Zongxi, Yang Zengxin, Dorji Fearlamu, Chang Rujiu, and Jing Xueling are in charge of the administration, people's livelihood, immigration and other powers of Wang Maoru's territory. Zhang Kuian and Gu Weijun were in charge of foreign affairs, Zhang Hongyang, Song Ziwen, Fang Hongxin, Chu Yong, Gui Fang, and Bai Baotian were in charge of economic development and construction, Xu Nailin, Yan Fu, Li Ziwen, and Wang Guoku were in charge of education, culture, and religion, and Yuan Keding, Lu Shaohua, and Zhou Daotai were responsible for the implementation of legislation and laws and regulations.

Of course, these people can enter the National Committee, they must be Wang Maoru's henchmen, and they are all people who expect Wang Maoru to develop more. Among the appointed personnel, Fang Hongxin's appointment is the most surprising, this businessman who returned from the United States is actually the person in charge of Wang Maoru in the United States in his early years, specializing in making money in the United States to help Wang Maoru supplement into the army, no wonder Xiushuai can show his strength. As soon as he returned to China, he was reused and became Wang Maoru's secretary, which is really beautiful.

Among them, Lu Shaohua's exceptional admission also made many people a little unconvinced, thinking that he was in the limelight of his father Lu Zhengxiang, but they didn't know that Lu Zhengxiang rejected Wang Maoru. As far as Lu Shaohua himself is concerned, his talent and ability can definitely be called a young leader, modest and cautious, and Wang Maoru's age, Wang Maoru has a good impression of him, so after a telegram was sent to Beijing, Lu Shaohua considered that the Anhui system was declining, and the national defense force under Wang Maoru, the vice minister of the army, was like the rising sun, so he resigned from the Ministry of Justice and came to Wang Maoru to help formulate the judiciary.

Later, Wang Maoru promulgated another appointment that everyone could not understand, appointing Niu Delu as deputy director of the General Staff Department and director of the Second Foreign Affairs Division, Niu Delu's brother-in-law was transferred to the General Staff Department as deputy director of the Second Foreign Affairs Division, and Lu Fang, former director of the Military Academy Division of the General Military Affairs Department, was promoted to the post of deputy director of the Military Affairs Department and director of the Resettlement Division. Although the General Staff Department is half a level higher than the General Military Affairs Department, the General Military Affairs Department is an oil and water department, especially the transfer of Niu Delu, the director of the Resettlement Division, and his henchman Liu Qun, which cannot but arouse the suspicion of many officers.
