My Head of the Huaxia Expeditionary Force

Chapter 260 Honor Third Division

"Is it a bit spicy? I made a soup for you to relieve the spiciness."

"Oh, thank you thank you."

"Thank you sister-in-law!"

……

The virtuous Xiaozui brought another pot of vegetable and tofu soup on the table, and immediately made the animals "grateful", especially Ayi and Chen Jize, the two Jiangnan boys, as if they had seen their saviors.

Although Sichuan cuisine is spicy, the pleasure on the tip of the tongue can make people want to stop. Ah Yi, who had never eaten spicy food before, couldn't help but fell in love with this taste.

"Long Wenwen, don't just f*cking eat. How many troops have Zen reached now? How many are there in total?" Liao Mingyu asked in a deep voice.

"Hmm...the 7th Division is temporarily organized, and there are also the 66nd and 122th Regiments of the original 139th Army. It's just that these teams are not satisfied with the formation, and the supplementary regiments that came here at the earliest have a total of more than 4000 people."

With rice in his mouth, Long Wenwen gave an ambiguous sermon

Liao Mingyu nodded slightly. Counting the remaining 3000 people of the Sichuan Army, the number of troops was overstaffed and could be reorganized.

"Regimental Commander, how do we arrange the formation of the troops, according to the system of two brigades and six regiments?" Chen Jize asked suddenly.

"Isn't there a request from above?" Ah Yi also expressed his puzzlement.

"There is no request, but Commander Song sent a group of mid-level and high-level military officers over, probably because he wanted to plant some of his own eyeliner." Long Wenwen said meaningfully while grilling rice.

"What are you afraid of when people are in our hands? Don't be idle when you go back today. Conscript the soldiers who came over, take the essence and discard the dross. I will pick out the old, weak, sick, disabled and soldiers. The supplies are also counted, do you hear me clearly?"

Liao Mingyu put down his chopsticks and said with a nod.

"understand!"

……

The honorary third division, as the new main division of the national government, naturally has to be organized according to its standards.

To say that the number of division-level units in the national army is also uneven. According to the most common standard division, it is a simple direct-affiliated unit + 3 regiments.And others such as German mechanic, adjuster, reorganizer...the number of establishments is different.

Unlike the earliest two-brigade and six-regiment German armor division, a full-staffed main division has three main regiments, one or two supplementary regiments, an artillery regiment and a transport regiment, plus several directly subordinate units, but there is no brigade-level command unit.

In fact, setting up a brigade under a division and a regiment under a brigade was the most popular practice before World War II.There are 2 brigades under a division, and each brigade has 2 regiments, or 3 brigades with a total of 9 regiments, forming a matrix structure and a relatively large scale. Such troops are also called Class A divisions.

However, countries discovered problems in subsequent wars. First, the troops were too bloated, and second, there were many levels of command, which sometimes caused overlapping orders or inconvenient communication.

Such a large unit on the battlefield is not easy to deploy quickly. If division-level orders are conveyed to the regiment through the brigade level, it will appear slower and even delay the fighter.

However, if the division-level orders are directly linked to the regiment, then in addition to the daily management functions at the brigade level, it will become redundant and cumbersome tactically.

Facts have proved that on the frontal battlefield between the domestic and Japanese troops, the division level is often used as the main strategic unit most of the time, and the regiment level is used as the basic combat unit. Canceling the divisional brigade can reduce the command level and allow the troops to respond quickly.

However, the brigade level did not withdraw from the army establishment, and it was used more as a separate combat unit on the battlefield.

So in the end it was decided to reorganize the troops according to the main division, and the honor third division has jurisdiction:

3 main regiments (2500 people each)
2 supplementary regiments (1500 people)
1 separate artillery regiment (1500 men)
1 semi-mechanized transport regiment (1500 people)
1 division directly under the reinforced guard battalion (1200 people)
According to the quality of the national government's army, it is estimated that among the soldiers sent over, at least thousands of soldiers will be laid off by Long Wenwen and the others.

Therefore, the most suitable main combat force is around 1000 people, and the rest will be thrown into logistics positions.

In addition, there are logistics and supply battalions, engineering battalions, military police battalions, medical battalions, communication battalions... and other auxiliary troops. After the division is fully staffed, the total number of people is more than 15000.

The main combat troops are all mainly American equipment, and the basic unit is still a 12x3 system with 3 people as a squad.

A platoon has 3 infantry squads, a mortar squad and a 1mm mortar. (60 people)
一个连下辖3个步兵排，增设1个重火力排，9挺M2重机枪+3具巴祖卡火箭筒。（总计220人）
一个营下辖3个步兵连，增设1个炮兵连，12门81mm迫击炮，6门37战防炮。警卫排、卫生排等（总计750人左右）
Because of the increase in transport vehicles now, Liao Mingyu decided to add another artillery battalion at the main regiment level in the next step.But the 1 howitzer is too bulky and not suitable.

I remember that Nantianmen killed so many little devils, and it seems to have unlocked a 75mm field gun. I forgot the model parameters. This caliber is actually just used as regiment-level support firepower. I can only check it after the system upgrade is completed.

Needless to say, the artillery regiment directly under the division is expanded based on the original artillery battalion, with 12 105mm howitzers and 9 155mm howitzers, but such firepower still cannot meet Liao Mingyu's requirements.

Division-level units, don't you have a heavy artillery with more than 30 guns to come out and mess around?
As for the two supplementary regiments, except that they do not have heavy firepower, their organization and weapons are the same as those of the main regiment, and their usual training must be carried out in accordance with the standards of the main regiment, so that the damaged main force can be quickly replenished, and they can also serve as the main force on the battlefield. reserve team to use.

The general framework of the whole division is like this, and adjustments will be made later according to the actual situation.

After writing all the plans, it was already late at night. After stretching, Liao Mingyu saw that the time was almost 3 o'clock. When he got serious, he felt that the time passed quickly.

Xiao Zui had already fallen asleep. Earlier, she was worried that Liao Mingyu would be hungry late at night, so she thoughtfully went to the kitchen to boil some eggs and put them on the table in the main room.

Liao Mingyu walked out of the room, casually peeled two eggs that were still warm, stuffed them into his mouth, chewed them, and swallowed them whole.

In addition to the personnel appointment after the expansion of these troops is also a headache, Liao Mingyu himself would not believe that such a large army would say that the head of state is 100% assured, as can be seen from the group of officers sent by Song Xilian.

However, there are policies and countermeasures. At least three main regiments and artillery regiments must be his old brothers and confidantes, so as to control the entire army and make them work together.

As for those outsiders, if you are obedient, put them in the division headquarters and take care of them. If you have real power, don’t even think about it.

After the reorganization of the troops, some weapons and equipment have to be exchanged. After all, a team of more than 1 people is not comparable to before, and it is another expense.

Thinking of this, I don't know how the living father of the system is doing now. It's been almost a month since the upgrade. No matter how he calls, he still hasn't responded at all. He can't change the equipment until it comes out.

As long as the equipment and weapons are complete, and then the training of the troops is integrated, such a division will not be afraid of facing a division of little devils. After taking down Longling and having an armored unit...

Haha, Liao Mingyu couldn't help laughing out loud, the picture is too beautiful to imagine, there is a long way to go, let's take it step by step!
