Fengxian Jiangshan

After some discussions between Zhang Tinglan and Jiang Baili, the plan for the whole army was basically finalized. The first thirteen divisions were used as field divisions, with one division and three regiments, and an artillery regiment equipped with 54 105mm howitzers. The total number of artillery companies, as well as other affiliated troops, should reach about 6000.

In fact, this kind of organization has been proposed by Fengjun long ago, and the previous divisions were also organized in this way. However, due to the great changes in combat missions, sometimes the canceled brigades must be temporarily organized.

But this time, since the overall situation has been basically determined, the field troops only need to be responsible for the outside, so the organization is completely fixed.As the main force against the land threat from Russia and Japan, the second, sixth and seventh divisions were stationed in Outer Mongolia.The [-]rd, [-]th, [-]th, [-]th, and [-]th divisions were stationed in the three eastern provinces and the line of the Yalu River.The fifth and eighth divisions were stationed in the Far East, and the ninth and tenth divisions were stationed in Fengtian as a reserve force.

As for the first division, it is a bit special. It was awarded the title of Guard Division, and the troops were expanded to a super-large establishment of the third brigade and nine regiments, mainly responsible for the defense tasks in the Beijing-Tianjin area.

This is also the result of Zhang Tinglan's lessons learned. When the country has not yet been unified and foreign aggression is still there, the capital must definitely be garrisoned with heavy troops, so as to ensure safety.

After the situation in the country is completely stabilized, the First Division may still be adjusted. According to Zhang Tinglan's idea, he wants to turn the First Division into a mechanized unit of the Fengjun Army and serve as the country's most powerful iron fist.However, there is no such financial resources for the time being, so it can only be used as an idea.

In addition to these thirteen well-organized divisions, other troops will be reduced to varying degrees. The second-line local garrison has a total of seven divisions, one division in each of the three provinces of Zhishan, Shandong and Henan.Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai have arranged two divisions. As the economic center, this force is still a little weak.Zhang Tinglan put the newly established First Division of the Marine Corps in Hangzhou, and at the same time can defend Shanghai.

The Marine Corps is a force that Zhang Tinglan has planned to build since last year. With the unification of most parts of the country, in the foreseeable future, the main mission of the squadron is to recover the lost islands, and Japan and Britain and France Fighting in Nanyang, this kind of battle is inseparable from the Marine Corps.

Moreover, Zhang Tinglan put this pure offensive force in the Yangtze River Delta, which is also very knowledgeable.According to common sense, this army should actually be placed in Fujian.For attacking Taiwan.However, Zhang Tinglan did not do this. In fact, it has already revealed deep strategic considerations.

If you want to regain Taiwan, who would foolishly land on Taiwan, just attack Ryukyu directly, by comparison.Ryukyu is smaller in size and less difficult to attack.At the same time, Ryukyu's strategic location is far above Taiwan.As long as the Ryukyu is won.Taiwan does not need to fight at all, and it is bound to return to China's hands, so Zhang Tinglan put the Marine Corps in the Yangtze River Delta.

In addition, there are two garrison divisions in Hunan and Hubei. The purpose is also very simple, which is to protect this important industrial town in the central region, and to stabilize the central region.

besides.There are also six basic divisions and six rapid strike divisions. Each of the six basic divisions retains only more than 6000 people and only one infantry regiment, but the rest of the artillery and other technical arms are almost the same as the first-line troops.

But this basic teacher is also very knowledgeable.Each chief officer will be equipped with two deputies. Once a war breaks out, one regiment can become three regiments. Like a balloon, it will inflate quickly and go into battle at the fastest speed.

These six basic divisions are usually stationed in the Central Plains and Jiangnan and other areas close to the railway line. They usually participate in the defense of local security, and in wartime they will expand rapidly and move quickly.

As for the six fast-strike divisions, they were designed to deal with places such as Southwest China, Guangdong and Guangxi. These areas are relatively remote, and it would be too costly to mobilize a large army. Moreover, in terms of combat effectiveness, most warlords are scumbags, so there is no need to spend too much money. energy.

Three of the six fast-strike divisions are trained as mountain troops. Each division has about 8000 people. The ability to control a province.

After this reorganization, the national defense army has a total strength of about 35 troops, and can quickly mobilize 20 people. Judging from the current situation, it is basically enough. With the development of the economy and changes in the security situation, it is still possible. Appropriate expansion.

After all, as a large country with a population of more than 4 million, it is not too much to maintain an army of 200 million. More troops can not only be used as a deterrent, but also solve some employment problems, which can be regarded as a way out for ordinary people.

"Humble words, the establishment of the army is basically like this. The navy and air force still have to do some challenges. The navy has to be divided into two fleets. One is called the Bohai Fleet. It will use Luda, Weihaiwei and other places as bases to defend Beijing, Tianjin and other places. The industrial zone of the three provinces in the Northeast. The second branch will be placed in the Yangtze River Delta area, as the East China Sea Fleet, and the defense area will be on the southeast line."

"Well, the navy is organized like this for the time being, but after we can build warships, we will expand the South China Sea Fleet and the North Sea Fleet. One will be placed in the south, and the other will be placed in Vladivostok. Only in this way can we build a Great Wall at sea."

Jiang Baili also nodded in agreement: "The problem with the Air Force is quite serious. We currently have about 1500 fighter planes in the Air Force, which seems to be far more than Japan and Russia. But because of our vast territory, there are many areas to be guarded. The Air Force It also needs to shoulder the task of coastal defense, so it must be greatly expanded, at least to increase the number of aircraft to 2000, or even [-]. However, considering the cost issue, it is not necessary to equip all the aircraft with new ones. The best fighters are handed over to the frontline troops. Older aircraft can be reserved for second-line pilots, but the Air Force must ensure the number."

This is also the difference between a large air defense and a small country. A small country can build a small and sophisticated air force, but a big country can't do it. It must ensure a sufficient number.

"Brother Baili has a good idea, let's do it according to this idea."

"Humble words, this entire army will cost a lot of money. After deducting the original Fengjun's 20-somethings, we need to expand more than 5000 people. Some of them can be recruited from the direct army, but a large number will also be recruited. The original soldiers in all provinces will also be demobilized. This is not a small amount of money, the cabinet only promised 3000 million, there is still a gap of at least [-] million, and there is also the cost of purchasing weapons.

The army is a gold-swallowing tiger. Even if it is not reorganized, spending money is like running water. This is just the army. After the renovation of the Mackensen is completed, the aircraft carrier fleet will be pulled out.That's just a waste of money.

"Brother Baili, all kinds of privileges have just been taken back this year. After next year, the financial gap will be greatly made up, and the investment in the army will also increase. As for the gap this year, it's up to me to figure out a way to ensure that major events will not be delayed. "

Jiang Baili heard this.Immediately laughed: "I knew all the troubles were in Zhuoyan's hands. They can be solved, and the ability to turn stones into gold is not nonsense!"

Jiang Baili left with a smile, and Zhang Tinglan also showed a wry smile. Of course, he doesn't have the ability to turn stones into gold, but he knows the general trend of history and can find opportunities to make money.The Great Kanto Earthquake in Japan is getting closer and closer.Inevitably, this money will be spent on the Japanese.

It seems a little unpleasant to make a disaster fortune by yourself in a big earthquake, so you might as well donate three heads and two hundred to the Japanese at that time.Then light candles in the park, silently bless them, be strong!

In fact, when Fred was driven away, Zhang Tinglan had already planted the idea of ​​using the earthquake to make a fortune. Now that the funding gap is so large, it seems that he really has to make a serious effort to attack the Japanese.

Just when Zhang Tinglan was planning how to make money, Jiang Baili had already announced the reorganization plan, who would have thought that all the senior generals of Fengjun would be blown up now.This reorganization of the army is completely different from the previous expansion of the army.Jiang Baili has already stated the principle clearly, to lead troops in different places, and not to allow generals and soldiers to belong to the same province.

In addition, officers at all levels must be rotated regularly, and cannot be in any one unit for more than two years.Undoubtedly, doing so is tantamount to completely breaking the situation where soldiers return to generals, and no one can even think about pulling up a small team.

There are many people who can't figure out this kind of arrangement. If you have a good soldier, why do you need to rotate regularly? What should you do if the combat effectiveness drops?What if the command doesn't go your way!

Of course, these are the reasons that can be spoken out, and there are more people who are already pulling up their own small circles. As a result, their dreams were shattered all of a sudden. Of course, they can’t be reconciled, so people go to Jiang Baili and Yang Yuting every day, He went to find Sun Anhu, and even directly found Zhang Tinglan.

But Zhang Tinglan is so cunning, at this time, he will never create trouble for himself, if he can figure it out, he has to listen to the arrangements honestly.Zhang Tinglan went to Miyun villa early. Years ago, the whole family was going to Beijing, but happened to catch up with the rebellion. It has been several months since the agreement was finalized with Japan and Britain.

But it happened to be early summer at this time, the warm sunshine, the green grass, a breath of air, and fragrance everywhere.Of course, this is only temporary. With the development of industrialization, I am afraid that the good air in the capital will not last long, so let's enjoy it while it is good.

Zhang Tinglan personally took the family over. After not seeing each other for a few months, the eldest girl has grown a lot taller, but her face is still plump and pink, as if water can be squeezed out, and her big eyes are flickering. Flickering, full of spirituality.

When I first met Zhang Tinglan, I was still a little skeptical, but when Zhang Tinglan personally led a pony, let the little girl ride on it, and headed towards the villa, the little girl was suddenly overjoyed, her bright eyes were tight Staring intently at the dog-like pony in front of him, he was simply a living baby.

Also rare is Zhang Luying. It is not easy for Zhang Xueliang to come back from Europe. Naturally, he wants to take Yu Fengzhi and the child over for a good reunion. Occupied a yard.

Just robbing the house and forgetting about other things, Zhang Tinglan also teased: "Hanqing, it's not that I don't prepare for my eldest niece, it's because you are too careless as a father."

Zhang Xueliang snorted, hugged Zhang Luying, let him ride on his shoulders, and said with a smile: "Baby girl, Daddy will be your horse, what do you think?"

Zhang Luying smiled immediately, and Zhang Xueliang deliberately tilted his shoulders, making Zhang Luying's laughter even clearer.On the contrary, Yu Fengzhi was a little annoyed: "Hanqing, don't spoil the child all the time, otherwise there is no way to control it."

On the contrary, Zhou Xinyao smiled slightly: "They are busy with their work, and they don't see their children much throughout the year. They can't just speak harshly and let them have a good time."

"Hey, people say that you are a strict father and a loving mother. Why did you come to our place and let the women make bad faces? They are just trying to make fun of their children!"

Zhang Tinglan and Zhang Xueliang took their children and ran ahead, while Zhou Xinyao and Yu Fengzhi followed behind with Zhang Zuoxiang and Hua Futian.

Zhang Zuoxiang couldn't stop smiling all the way: "It's like a dream to be able to come to this day. Fengzhi, although we are two families, we are actually one family. If you have any problems in the future, you can come to me directly. If Hanqing dares to do anything wrong, I will take care of my family law."

Zhang Tinglan led the pony and took her daughter to the front of the villa. This villa was built in the Qing Dynasty. Because of the reference to Western-style architecture, the whole villa looks full of foreign style, and at the same time has a strong oriental style. There is a fountain in the middle of the yard. , and there are two rows of aquariums as tall as a person, in which huge koi swim back and forth.

"Big ya, what do you think of these fish?"

Da Ya thought for a long time, tilted her head and asked, "Is it delicious?"

When Zhang Tinglan heard this, she couldn't laugh or cry. She didn't expect her daughter to be a foodie, so she said with a smile: "Of course it's delicious. Dad will make you a sweet and sour fish!"

Da Ya nodded proudly, Zhang Tinglan didn't care if it was burning the qin and cooking the crane or not, she did it herself, picked the biggest and fattest fish, and made a big plate of sweet and sour fish, the family ate it very happily.

In the evening, Zhang Zuoxiang called Zhang Tinglan over, and the two of them sat facing each other. Zhang Zuoxiang was still smoking his pipe for a long time before he said, "Zhuoyan, you are also the vice president. Put aside Li Yuanhong's trash, this country is all up to you." Forget it, it stands to reason that father shouldn't say anything, but it's not good to hang on to some things."

"Father, what are you talking about?"

"Of course it's your family business. I'm satisfied with Xinyao's daughter-in-law, but it's a little inappropriate to be just a daughter-in-law? Sun Liechen told me about Xianrui, and he has already tied his heart to you. Now You're getting older, so it's not good to delay. In addition, I heard that Qiao girl has been with you for many years. In the first few years, you were still young, just for fun. I don't want to say much. Now that you have reached this status, you should accept it as soon as possible. At home, otherwise there will be some changes, and it will not look good."

Zhang Tinglan also nodded hastily: "Father, if it wasn't for one thing and one thing, I would have talked to Xinyao a long time ago, but I was afraid of hurting her heart!" (To be continued...)
