Go back in time and be a chaebol

Chapter 184 Officer Corps (first update, please subscribe)
  Roosevelt is dead!
  Nothing changed, Roosevelt died.

On April 4, Roosevelt died of a sudden cerebral hemorrhage in Hot Springs, Georgia.

"Okay, that guy is finally dead!"

After learning the news, unlike others, Li Yian felt only a burst of ecstasy in his heart.

There was no other way. As a president-maker, he finally succeeded in sending the first American president to the White House.

"Hehe, actually, the feeling of making a president is quite ordinary."

It would be a lie to say that I am not excited, and it would also be a lie to say that I am very excited.

After all, even the president cannot give much in return that is outside the scope of his power.

In fact, Li Yi'an's mood can be said to be a bit complicated now, because, for the first time to create a president, he is of course worried about gains and losses - Truman has become president, so what kind of reward will he give himself next?

As a businessman, after investing, you are always eager for returns.

There is no way, everyone is just a layman!
  Like everyone else, Li Yi'an certainly wanted to send a message of condolences to Roosevelt's family. The death of President Roosevelt is a great loss to the cause of justice for mankind. At the same time, I would also like to send a congratulatory message to Truman and congratulate him on succeeding as President of the United States. Under his leadership, the just cause of mankind will surely usher in new victories.

In short, the main focus is a contrast.

But whether it is a loss or a victory. It does not affect the training of the Borneo Guard Force. The training will still continue. Of course, the flag will still be lowered to half-mast as a courtesy and a memorial service will be held for Roosevelt.

The day after Roosevelt's death, a transport ship arrived from Australia, accompanying the US military's logistics fleet. When the ship docked at the port, looking at the planes whizzing by in the sky, all the captains and officers crowded on the deck were all dumbfounded and murmured.

"Oh my god, why are there so many planes in the sky..."

There are many planes, as many as hundreds.

For these lieutenant officers who came from China, it is difficult for them to imagine such a number of aircraft, and these aircraft are only used for... ground cover.

"Everyone, tell me how Boss Li will arrange for us?"

"It does not matter."

A middle-aged man looked at Zamboanga and said.

"The important thing is to fight the Japanese. You probably don't know yet, but there are many Japanese soldiers in Nanyang who were transferred from China during the Pacific War. They have the blood of us Chinese in their hands!"

His words caused everyone on the deck to fall silent.

Yes, there is nothing more important than fighting the Japanese. In China, they could only sit on the bench, but now, they have another chance to fight the Japanese.

Half an hour later, when everyone got off the boat, they saw the legendary "boss". Sun Chendong, who had the highest military rank among them, did not greet him immediately. Instead, he ordered everyone to form a team. With the commands, these captains The officer quickly completed the formation.

As the team stood at attention, Li Yian looked at the officers in front of him. They were all "replacement officers" recruited from China, the kind that had been laid off. The highest rank was colonel, and the lowest rank was captain. They are all a group of generals selected by the uncle through his connections in the military. What is the biggest characteristic of these people?

They have experienced hundreds of battles, but they are by no means direct descendants. Therefore, they are like a bunch of stepmothers in the domestic army. They have the worst equipment, the worst soldiers, and even the missions are... well, the most dangerous kind. The men were almost beaten. Taking advantage of the general background of reorganizing and strengthening the army last year, these people were directly mobilized and dispatched. It was said that they were mobilized and dispatched, but in fact they were dismissed. After all, the dispatched officers were not paid and were just for use.

Well, let's put it aside, it's just those "fill-in officials" waiting to be restarted at some point.

It will take a few more years to start, and a letter of appointment will become a certain commander.

Yes, still push these guys to their death.

So go!

When such people come here, Li Yian really doesn't worry about their loyalty, because... they are all a group of people with no way out.

Uncle Guo's ability to do things is reflected in the fact that none of the officers he recommended were generals. Most of them were school officers. These people had no solid background in the military, otherwise they would not have been deployed. The school officers have both front-line combat experience and commanding unit combat experience.

If this group of people can be trained well, they will definitely be able to support the security force.

While feeling emotional, Li Yian saw a colonel walking up to him and reporting.

"Reporting Chief Li, all three groups of employees of Borneo Company 354, actually 350 people, please tell Chief Li." What about the others?
  One died of illness in India, and three are being treated in hospitals in Australia. They are all soldiers who have spent their remaining years fighting. Who is free from injuries and illnesses?

Li Yian was not polite. After returning a military salute, he stood in front of the group of captain officers and said.

"Take a break."

Whoa!
  The movements are uniform, without the slightest sloppiness.

Li Yian said with a satisfied nod.

"First of all, welcome everyone here. I believe everyone knows that everyone says they are employees of the company, but in fact, they are going to fight, well, they are fighting against the Japanese!"

Standing in front of this group of people, Li Yian's words were straightforward.

"I know that the purpose of everyone coming here is also to fight the Japanese. Mr. Li does not dare to make other promises to everyone, but there is one promise he can give everyone - that is, I will definitely lead everyone all the way to the Japanese mainland. Those who fight to Tokyo and get drunk under Mount Fuji are also Mr. Li’s dream. No matter whether it is the King of Heaven or I, I can’t stop my dream! I think it is also your dream!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the square team of more than a thousand people burst into laughter.

"Yes, that's right, Chief Li, we all dream about getting drunk or sleeping under Mount Fuji!"

"She's just sleeping with his mother-in-law!"

I don’t know if it’s because of everyone’s strong accents, or whether they’re talking about being drunk or sleeping, but it all means the same thing.

Such a rude and simple welcome made Sun Chendong and others astonished, but they seemed to understand in their hearts why the uncle would say - come on, you won't regret it, there is a place for you to come here!
  So they traveled thousands of miles to come here!

Although there were only a few simple words, they made them feel the difference between Mr. Li, who has long been famous in the country, and others.

Thinking about it, a person who can be friends with the president and can support each other with hundreds of millions of dollars in material goods must have something special about him.

Soon, a group of people arrived at the military camp. As soon as they entered the military camp, everyone was stunned by what they saw - a chariot!
  Chariots came straight into their line of sight, and there were hundreds of them. In the paddy fields in the distance, there were dozens of tanks the size of rooms, roaring and driving through the paddy fields. Suddenly, the tank's slender body spewed out a ball of flames, and the sound of cannons reached everyone's eyes from far and near. People all looked at those tanks in amazement and murmured.

"These, these chariots, are all ours..."

"Yes."

The jeep driver said proudly.

"They are all captured by us from Germany, and so are the brothers' weapons. Over there is the Panther tank, which weighs more than 40 tons. It is the best tank in Germany. We have more than 200 tanks and more than 4 Panzer IV tanks. , there are about 400 tanks..."

400 vehicles!
  For a moment, everyone was shocked and speechless.

While people were shocked by these tanks, Li Yian, who was sitting on the vehicle, began to figure out the organization of the troops.

You can consider establishing a few reinforcement brigades.
  At present, the largest establishment of the security force is the regiment. Except for the seven regiments, the rest are reinforced battalions.

This is the reality of the garrison force - because there are few qualified commanders, battalions can only be used as the main combat unit.

If there are more than a thousand soldiers, there is no border; if there are more than ten thousand soldiers, there is no border.

When he was in Bastogne, Li Yian had already realized that commanding tens of thousands of people in combat was completely different from commanding hundreds of people.

This is also the reason why he accepted Sundelin's suggestion... He is the only one in the entire security force who has the experience of commanding a regiment-level unit. Others are at most company commanders and deputy battalion commanders.

Therefore, strengthening the battalion has naturally become the best choice, but there is a Japanese army coalition in Borneo, and it is inevitable to fight in large formations.

These people came at the right time and could be enriched into the army and organized into several reinforced brigades. In this way, even if they encountered a large Japanese army, they would not have the problem of fighting independently.

The prerequisite is that you can pass the test.

"Time is running out..."

With emotion, Li Yian looked at the calendar on his watch again. There were not many days left.
