Yang Zhen naturally did not explain to Guo Bingxun what is the difference between this cottage and the other cottage. Regarding Guo Bingxun's question, Yang Zhen only dealt with the past vaguely. He said something else. Instead, he raised the issue of the division of labor between the two in the future training of the troops.

Regarding Yang Zhen's vague explanation, Guo Bingxun, who was confused, did not ask much. He didn't even ask whether the submachine gun on the drawing that Yang Zhen handed over to him was designed by himself or where he got it from. For Guo Bingxun, he knew that if Yang Zhen wanted to tell the truth to himself, he would sue him. Since he didn't want to say it, he still had his own reasons after all.

However, regarding the division of labor in training, Guo Bingxun didn't say much, but took over a lot of things for Yang Zhen in the past. It turned out that Yang Zhen was responsible for the training of military cadres at all levels, mainly the teaching team, reconnaissance team, and some engineers. Kwok Bingxun is responsible for the overall physical fitness, queue, and basic tactical training of the troops. It is also responsible for the training of radio operators.

At the same time, Guo Bingxun also proposed that a group of educated soldiers be selected from among the troops and a staff officer training team should be set up. Prepare for future assignments to various units as staff officers. Guo Bingxun, who had returned from studying in France, greatly admired the excellent staff of the German army during World War I.

As far as he is concerned, he believes that what the troops are lacking now is not only qualified grass-roots commanders, but also qualified staff officers. At present, there is only Dong Ping under him, the chief of staff, who can be called a staff officer for the time being. And Dong Ping, who is still serving as an instructor in the reconnaissance battalion, is really a little lacking. The entire staff office is almost alone in his support for the overall situation. This is very detrimental to the future development of the troops.

In fact, according to the division of labor between the two people, Guo Bingxun's burden is much heavier than Yang Zhen's. The training of more than 10,000 recruits is not a good errand. In particular, it is difficult to make these recruits, who have almost no military foundation, quickly transform into qualified fighters and form combat effectiveness in a short period of time.

However, Yang Zhen's three-month hard training in the secret camp of Lao Heidingzi laid a good foundation. At that time, Yang Zhen trained soldiers as squad leaders and squad leaders as company and platoon cadres. Otherwise, if so many new recruits appear at once, there will not even be enough officers at the grassroots level, and how can there be a rapid formation of combat effectiveness.

With this foundation, coupled with some of the prisoners of war rescued at Jingpo Lake, as well as many of the laborers rescued here, many of whom were born as prisoners of war, as well as some puppet Manchu soldiers who joined the army in the north of Dunhua, this avoided the shortage of grassroots officers and squad leaders. So that the manpower to train recruits is quite sufficient without affecting the combat effectiveness of the main force.

But despite this, because of the tight time, Guo Bingxun still felt very struggling. After all, except for those who laid the foundation laid by the old black top, the rest of the people, whether they were prisoners of war or puppet Manchurian soldiers anyway, were because of the different training methods of the original troops, and the means of training recruits were also very different.

There are too many factions in the Chinese army, and the training methods and levels of each unit are almost completely different. Except for the descendants of the Central Army, none of the other units had the same training methods. However, there is one point that, compared with the training methods that have been formed by the troops, the training methods of these troops have become backward. In order to effectively improve the training level of the troops, especially the new recruits, these people must first go back to the furnace.

Despite this, Guo Bingxun still took over most of the training of the teaching team, because he knew that compared to himself, a simple chief of staff, as the highest military commander of the army, Yang Zhen had too many things to consider.

And the commander-in-chief, at this time, is not so much a military commander, but now he is a person like a political commissar. The more he bears, the more time Yang Zhen has to think about problems.

Hearing that Guo Bingxun was going to take over most of the teaching tasks of the teaching team, Yang Zhen pondered for a moment and shook his head and said, "Old Guo, this can't be done. Your burden is already heavy, and if it were to be burdened again, it would wear you out. Lao Peng is not here, and you still have to take care of the military industry and logistics, and these things are accumulated together, which is too heavy a burden for you. ”

"In my opinion, it is better to merge your staff officer training course with the teaching team. Staff officers should also be proficient in leading troops, and commanders at all levels should also be proficient in staff operations. When necessary, the staff officer can go down and lead the troops. Commanders at the grass-roots level may be transferred to combat staff officers. ”

"Moreover, a good staff officer is the best candidate for command when the unit is expanded. We can't be like the one in the national army, where staff officers are staff officers and commanders are commanders, so that there will be a disconnect between all levels. ”

"In this way, I will talk about grassroots tactics, and you will talk about staff operations. As for the training of the troops, since we already have a training program, I think we still train according to the training program we originally formulated. The veteran backbone of the army should play a more important role. ”

Speaking of this, Yang Zhen smiled bitterly and said: "I am not so much worried about the training of the troops, but more worried about the experience and command ability of military commanders at all levels. The strength and number of troops have expanded, but the level of our commanders at all levels has not necessarily improved. ”

"Most of our officers, especially military commanders at the regiment and battalion level, were originally company and platoon cadres, and they were promoted so high all of a sudden, is their ability enough? Is there a corresponding improvement? Is it commensurate with the position they hold? It's really worrying. ”

"Don't talk about them, it's you and me, how much experience do you have in the battle of a large army? It turned out that when we first came out, we only had the strength of a company in our hands, and our ability was barely enough. ”

"But now that the troops have developed dramatically into what they are now, we have not been trained in command positions at all levels, so it can be said that we have climbed to the sky in one step. The expansion of the armed forces is of course a gratifying thing. However, without long-term training in various positions, our ability and experience are too far from the situation we are facing now. In particular, the troops have changed from the original single infantry operation to the current infantry artillery coordinated operation. ”

"It's not just us, it's several regimental commanders as well. Wang Guangyu used to serve as a division commander and deputy commander in the Anti-Japanese Federation, but the strength of a division of the Anti-Japanese Federation was not as large as one of our battalions. Even a lot of the time, it's about the same as the one we have now. ”

"And Liu Changshun and Du Kaishan were only company-level officers before. When they were in the Guannai, even such low-level cadres at the squad and platoon level. With such a high level of promotion at once, can they afford the heavy responsibility assigned to them in terms of level and ability? To be honest, I'm a little worried. Even you and I were just low-ranking officers. ”

"The shape has changed, the environment has changed, and our command ability does not necessarily change with the environment. A decision made by us at all levels on the battlefield can even determine the life and death of tens of thousands of people, the success or failure of a battle, and the survival or destruction of this army. Lao Guo, the burden of you and me is heavier. ”

"We are the supreme military commander of this force, and it can be said that the fate of this force is in your hands and mine. Whether we will be short-lived or can continue to grow and develop, many times depends on a decision of you and me, or even a thought. ”

Yang Zhen's words made Guo Bingxun nod deeply and said, "Commander, your concerns are very right. I've been worrying about these things as well. Whether or not the ability of our commanders at all levels can keep up with the changes in the shape and improve is a major plan that determines the life and death of our troops. We can't cross the river by feeling the stones and groping for this kind of thing. For us, it is not only the time and equipment that are lacking, but also the teaching materials needed to train talents. ”

Yang Zhen turned around and picked up a stack of books from his desk and said, "This is part of the textbooks of the Japanese Army Non-commissioned Officer School that I found in the pile of materials of the Little Devil Garrison, as well as the textbooks of the Japanese Army University found in the office of the Little Devil Garrison Captain." ”

"After the honeymoon of the commander-in-chief, I will entrust the commander-in-chief to go to the Soviet Union. The first is to get some supplies back, and the other is to see if we can ask the commander-in-chief to find a way to get some textbooks from the Frunze Military Academy and some basic textbooks of military schools from the Soviet Union. ”

"I will do my best to translate these textbooks of the Japanese army. Although the little devil exterminates humanity, he still has a certain level above the training of officers. Its rank-and-file officers are arguably not inferior to any other army, and even better than most of the world's armies. The various tactical ideas of the Little Devil Army are still worth learning from. ”

"When the Red Army was on the Long March, various military academies were opened under such difficult conditions to train military and political cadres. Although the conditions are arduous, we must also seize the opportunity to carry out the necessary training for the troops, especially the commanders at all levels. You and I have to find a way to recharge. ”

Speaking of this, Yang Zhen stood up, walked to the window and looked at the dark mountains outside, paused and said, "To do this, what we need most is time." In any case, it is necessary to fight for a while longer. Even if it's for a day. One more day of training means that our troops have one more hope of winning in future battles. ”

"Lao Guo, the devils here are in contact with the Japanese army in Jiamusi and their superiors, mainly relying on radio and cable communication. In this way, you and I will divide the work. You have more control over the radio station, and I will be responsible for cable communications. Every time you communicate with the superiors of the Japanese army, you will personally grasp it. I'm still a little worried about the radio. ”

Speaking of this, Yang Zhen sighed softly and said, "We must continue to look for some skilled workers among the laborers." It is impossible for a little devil to build such a large top-secret military project without skilled workers. Think of a way and find it again. We must make the best use of those military equipment. The laborers, who were several years old, whose bodies had been tortured by long years of hard labor and inhuman abuse, and who were unfit for marching and fighting, were replaced by military workers. ”

"There is also infantry light weapons training that can be carried out first, as for artillery live-fire training and infantry artillery coordination training, it is still postponed and carried out last. The explosion of this thing was earth-shattering. It's not too far from Jiamusi in a straight line, and we're making a lot of noise, which can easily arouse the suspicion of the devils. The devil's control of the Northeast is too tight. ”

Regarding Yang Zhen's arrangement and arrangement, Guo Bingxun didn't say anything more, just nodded slightly. The two have been partners for such a long time, although they have not yet tacitly understood to the point that they have a clear heart, but they can be regarded as having a common heart. Yang Zhen's thoughts, Guo Bingxun is naturally very clear. Now that some things have been decided, don't go to Lang and waste time arguing. Military**, not suitable for the current situation.

The two of them made a plan for the current situation, and the hard work was naturally that the number of recruits who had now reached six new regiments. Wake up at five o'clock in the morning and go cross-country for a thousand meters. After breakfast, it's time for the queue and assassination drills. In the afternoon, weapons disassembly, live firing, and basic tactical training. As for the evenings, there are also cultural classes and political classes. On average, 24 hours a day, 12 hours of training. Every once in a while, night combat training is also carried out at night.

Often at the end of the day, these labor-born soldiers fall asleep when they are tired, and they can't push. The high-intensity training did not make these laborers feel any easier than doing hard labor for devils.

After the grievance education, these workers understand that they are now fighting for their future. I learned this by myself so that I could survive on the battlefield in the future. So although the training was extremely hard, these fighters who were used to hardships and hard work also persevered.

Actually, for these ordinary fighters, they are quite lucky. The advance officers who were selected for the teaching team were even worse than they were. During the day, they will conduct the same training, and even more intensively, and at night, they will also have to study basic command knowledge and staff operations. The original officers at all levels also did not have idleness, they also had to train or train people during the day, and they also had to attend classes at night.

After fifteen days of initial training, the recruits were assigned to various units to train with the veterans in order to integrate them into the army in advance. Originally, they thought that their training intensity was strong enough, but when they entered the combat unit, they found that the training of the new regiment was easier than that of veterans.

Although the troops are now entering a short period of recuperation, and some of the troops are still responsible for defensive duties, all training has not stopped. The training plan formulated by Yang Zhen in the secret camp of the old black top is still being implemented. Both new and veterans are continuing to train. It's just that the soldiers from the old black top secret camp are used to this kind of training with a large amount of exercise.

In fact, neither the recruits nor the veterans knew that compared to those of the former reconnaissance team, which has now been reorganized into a reconnaissance battalion, their training was a little harder, but compared to those brothers, it was like living in heaven.

It wasn't until one day that they saw the brothers of the reconnaissance battalion still carrying the logs on their shoulders to train their physical coordination and enhance their physical fitness while eating, and they knew how happy they were.

During the day, Guo Bingxun and Li Yanping followed the established training syllabus, while Yang Zhen focused on revising the original fortifications and training the reconnaissance battalion. Originally, Li Mingrui had always wanted to know how Yang Zhen's skills were trained, but after this month, now he understands.

A series of trainings such as hand-to-hand combat training, mine-laying and demining training, long-range sniping of light weapons, proficient use of various light weapons, proficient mastery of grenadier and mortar shooting, long-term lurking, military topography, field survival skills, capture techniques, climbing techniques, various vehicle driving techniques, sabotage techniques, and obstacle breaking techniques made Li Mingrui dizzy.

When he heard Yang Zhen say that these were just the most basic training, Li Mingrui, who was forced by Yang Zhen to learn Japanese with Zhang Ting curling his tongue, almost didn't faint directly. This is still a basic course, and if you learn it all, will it still be human?

Looking at the stunned Li Mingrui, Yang Zhen smiled slightly and said, "I said that this is basic training, because compared to the tactical training you haven't carried out yet. Time is too short, and tactical training can only be interspersed. You still have so much to learn. ”

"For example, vigilance operations, search operations, lurking operations, sabotage operations, rescue operations, seizure, strangulation operations, etc. The content of joint training includes common doctrine, bunker construction, protection against weapons of mass destruction, etc. ”

"In the future, when conditions permit, we will also carry out parachute training, armed swimming, boat manoeuvring, and driving of various vehicles. Of course, now we only have Japanese trucks on hand, so you can only learn how to drive Japanese trucks for the time being. ”

Yang Zhen and the last finger, Li Mingrui's eyes widened. When Yang Zhen's ten fingers on both hands were all closed, Li Mingrui really hoped that he would simply faint.

For these training subjects listed by Yang Zhenluo, Guo Bingxun, who has been abroad for a few years and is also well-informed, couldn't help but smack his tongue and said: "Commander, can they accept these for a month?" If you complete these training subjects, I think it will take at least three years. If the foundation of the fighters is thinner, it will take at least two more years to complete. ”

Guo Bingxun's vision was really accurate, and he could see at a glance that it would take at least three years to complete these training subjects. It doesn't take much, just one military Japanese, if you want to be proficient, you need at least two years or more. This is still a fast learner, and the brain is enough.

Regarding Guo Bingxun's question, Yang Zhen smiled and said, "I didn't ask them to master it all at once now." At present, the main activities are combat, directional blasting, weapons shooting in motion, long-range precision sniping, deployment, mine clearance training, and various camouflage training. ”

"They've been out on their own, and survival training in the wilderness only requires some supplemental training. Most of them are veterans with good marksmanship, and their shooting training only needs to be strengthened in the course of shooting training. As for tactics, I have also learned some one after another, and now I am more about strengthening. ”

"Lao Guo, what you said is not wrong, it will take at least two to three years to complete all these subjects. However, because we lack the necessary equipment, many subjects cannot be carried out, so some training subjects can only be cancelled. ”

"Even then, it would take at least two years to complete the full training. But we don't have that much time, I can only give them a year. Within a year, they had to complete 70% of the training subjects I expected. I want a sharp knife that can be pierced into the heart of the enemy at any time, not a bunch of ordinary infantrymen. No matter how hard and tiring they are, they still have to complete the training of the predetermined subjects during the year. ”
