Chapter 69 Reorganization

"We in Taiwan want to unite to resist Japan, and the Japanese army is still stationed in our Taipei Prefecture, so we must integrate all our forces, especially military forces. Therefore, in my capacity as the leader of Taiwan's resistance against Japan, I announced the reorganization of all the armed forces in Taiwan, and the entire armed forces in Taiwan will go through my reorganization. And the Japanese army in Taipei can attack us at any time, so we have to be ready at any time and reorganize the army as much as possible. If there is a delay and resistance to reorganization, it is all fornication! Wang Guorui said.

And a man in his forties said: "Hasn't that widow been forced to retreat to Taipei Mansion and can't move?" How to ......"

"Do you have an opinion?" Wang Guorui took advantage of the fact that he didn't finish speaking, and immediately asked.

And he immediately shut up, obviously knowing what Wang Guorui meant, that is, I am so shameless, what can I do. As for the Japanese army in Taipei, it was obvious that they had been forced to immobilize, but Wang Guorui also deliberately "exaggerated" the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army, as if it could sweep Taiwan at any time. Anyway, Wang Guorui just wants an excuse, an excuse to integrate Taiwan's forces. In the past, because of the pressure of the Japanese army, Wang Guorui did not have time to integrate. And now that the Japanese army has been forced to Taipei and cannot move, it is natural to have a good hand to clean up the interior. Anyway, the Japanese army in Taipei is just an excuse, and there is no other meaning.

Half an hour later, tens of thousands of soldiers of the Black Flag Army were also pulled to the nearby open space in batches, and then the first regiment rearranged them, and then prepared to select a group of troops as the backbone, and then break up and mix into the original three regiments of Wang Guorui's original troops. And from the troops of the three regiments, a group of people were replaced, and then used as the backbone of the formation of the third division. Now the 2nd Division is almost complete, and the 3rd Division is making preparations. Therefore, the backbone personnel of the Third Division also used these people in the Black Flag Army to exchange huàn out. Then re-compile.

"Listen, now you have to break up and regroup, and then assign to different units to serve as soldiers. Then retrain so that you can adapt to the new mode of warfare. If you don't want to, then don't blame us for being ruthless! Wang Guorui's instructor said.

"What about General Liu? Where did General Liu Yongfu go? Someone asked right away.

The instructor immediately said: "Now we are all under the command of Master Wang Guorui, the leader of Taiwan's anti-Japanese resistance, and you, General Liu Yongfu, are not Taiwan's anti-Japanese leaders. All the armed forces in Taiwan must act under the unified command of Lord Wang Guorui. You have to be reorganized. And you'd better forget Liu Yongfu, serve Wang Guorui well, and then kill more Japanese robbers. Meritorious service is rewarded. And the Taiwanese Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army of our Lord Wang Guorui is the most promising army, so it's a good thing for you to join! The instructor said.

But immediately there were still diehards: "We want to see General Liu Yongfu, we want to see General Liu!" ”

"We want to see General Liu!" "We want to see General Liu!" "Let General Liu come out. We want to see him! ”

Quite a few people started to make noise. In particular, some of the officers inside took the lead in shouting to see Liu Yongfu.

"Smack!"

The soldiers of the 1st Regiment around them began to pull the bolts of their rifles, and then pointed the muzzles of their rifles at the Black Flag soldiers, and if there was the slightest movement, they would immediately shoot.

"Do you want to be a rebel?" The instructor asked.

And those Black Flag soldiers also stopped when they saw these rifles. Naturally, they knew that their flesh and blood were no match for rifles, so they stopped shouting one after another. And then, they have to undergo reorganization, and then go through the corresponding initial training. After that, they can be assigned to serve as soldiers in major units.

Although some of these soldiers were Liu Yongfu's old subordinates, most of them were Liu Yongfu's newly recruited soldiers. Liu Yongfu was once born in the Heaven and Earth Society, which rebelled against the Qing Dynasty. Later, after accepting Zhao'an, his Black Flag Army was constantly dismantled, and in the end it was only a few hundred people. Later, the situation in the Taiwan Strait was tense, and Liu Yongfu was reused and sent to Taiwan to guard. And Liu Yongfu only then began to recruit troops, and these troops were not Liu Yongfu's old subordinates, they were all new to join. So it's very easy to co-opt, and they won't be too loyal to Liu Yongfu. Anyway, who to follow as a soldier is not to be a soldier? As long as you have money and can defend your hometown, it's all okay. As for a small number of Liu Yongfu's diehards, if they are interested, they can still get around their lives, and if they are not interested, they are dead, and there is no third way.

That night, Wang Guorui listened to Zheng Hong's report by the bedside, especially about the reorganization of the troops.

"Husband, this time we have disarmed other armed forces in Taiwan. We have disarmed most of Taiwan's armed forces, a total of 20,000 armed forces. However, they were all troops with cold weapons, and their will to fight was very poor, and they ran halfway as soon as they heard the sound of shells. And the remaining half is not that they don't want to run, but that they are frightened by shells. Of course, this is normal, and we can't say that it's bad to run when you hear the sound of shells. Many soldiers do this at first, but after training they can not be afraid of the sound of shells exploding, and then they can kill the enemy. This is also the process of continuous training, and this is also the case with our recruits back then. Zheng Hong said.

Although these Black Flag soldiers heard the explosion and ran away, this does not mean that they are useless. Even in the army of the later revolutionary era, there were many soldiers who had just entered the battlefield and were afraid when they heard the explosion, and this was normal, and it could not be solved by brainwashing. Human beings have animal instincts, after all, human beings are a kind of advanced animals in the final analysis, and they will be afraid of danger. The difference is that trained people can rush forward in the face of danger, while those who are not trained are prone to collapse. It doesn't matter if they're really timid, but guts can be trained. Why did many soldiers in the warlord army in later generations become combat heroes in our party? Therefore, the quality of a soldier is not completely unchangeable, as long as it depends on whether the person who trained him uses the right method. And these Black Flag troops are actually quite bold, but they have not adapted to the combat methods of the firearms era, which is so. If you have been trained, it can be solved well.

"Husband, out of 20,000 people, we have eliminated 10,000 people, mainly in the green camp, and Taiwan's green camp has been eliminated a lot. And Master Hu Chuan, who is in charge of the Green Camp, we did not embarrass him, and also let him stay in Tainan for an idle position, after all, he is Hu Wei's father. However, the green battalion in his hands has been lifted. About 3,000 people were selected from the Green Battalion, and almost all of the other troops, namely Liu Yongfu's Black Flag Army, could be retained. Liu Yongfu can also be regarded as a veteran for many years, and he has a set of selecting soldiers and training soldiers. Liu Yongfu's Black Flag Army reorganized people, we can also skip physical training directly, and directly enter tactics and the use of various weapons. Now, we also want to see what you plan to do with these Manchu officials. Zheng Hong said.

"Don't be busy, these guys are toothless tigers, we don't need to be afraid of them. Their army has been reorganized, and it is impossible to threaten us. We have more opportunities to clean them up, and then pick out some people with few bad deeds to keep them. Or they may choose some people from among the local officials in Taiwan to serve as temporary officials. Wang Guorui said.

Wang Guorui first wanted to reorganize the soldiers in the hands of these Taiwanese Manchu officials and deprive them of their military rights. If they are allowed to retain military power, it will be a big threat to themselves. Don't look at them, they are only 10,000 or 20,000 troops whose combat effectiveness is not up to the stream, and the combined combat effectiveness of all of them is not as good as their own regiment. But if these forces are used well, they can all be successful. Just slap someone, maybe just a gentle pain. But if you stab with a needle with the force of a slap, it will be very painful. If these Manchu officials had 10,000 or 20,000 troops, no matter how poor their combat effectiveness was, but in the most crucial time and place, it would be very dangerous to give themselves such a treat.

If they take advantage of Wang Guorui's army to suddenly launch a mutiny, then I am afraid that they will die without a place to be buried. Therefore, it is necessary to put away their military power, not only to prevent them from betraying the Japanese, or from seizing power at a critical time. You must know that there was no shortage of fools in ancient Chinese officials, and it is not without examples that they staged mutinies when foreign invasions were most dangerous. There are many such stupid birds, so in order to prevent them from seizing their position as the leader of Taiwan's resistance against Japan, they naturally have to recruit their soldiers and deprive them of their military rights.

As for these officials in Taiwan, if they don't have military power, they don't have the ability to threaten Wang Guorui. At this time in Taiwan, the leader is the one who has soldiers in hand. The Manchu orders were of no use in Taiwan, and although these Manchu officials remained loyal to the Manchus, the Manchus were no longer able to send troops to back them up. The rule of a government must be backed by violence, and without this backing, it cannot be effectively ruled at all. And the Manchu Qing Dynasty already had any troops worthy of a war in Taiwan, and that Wang Guorui had enough troops in his hands and could defeat the Japanese army, and that Wang Guorui was the most powerful person in Taiwan.
