Chapter 287 The First Anti-Bandit Alliance ([-])
"Chairman, the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs has already formulated a plan for the new battalion-level units and defense zone planning."

"Since the scale of the battalion-level units is too large, the Ministry of Military Affairs intends to reduce the establishment of the battalion-level. Starting from the squadron, the squadron directly under the squadron headquarters, the squadron directly under the brigade headquarters, the brigade directly under the column headquarters and the column directly under the battalion headquarters, units at all levels The directly-administered troops have been lowered by one level. Now our security regiment has a basic establishment of 12 people, 76 people, 510 people in a small team, 180 people in a squadron, 360 people in a large team, and 12 people in a column , a battalion of about 12 people. After downsizing, there will be 76 people, 450 people, 420 people in a small team, 1 people in a squadron, 840 people in a brigade, 7000 people in a column, and [-] people in a battalion. It is nearly [-] people. The size of the brigade is not fixed, and it can have a change of plus or minus [-]% to [-]%. It is better to set up logistics personnel and staff according to its own situation."

Nodding his head, Qiu Tianxing roughly wrote down the numbers two thousand four, ten thousand three, and sixty-seven thousand in his mind.Well, coupled with the expansion of staff, logistics personnel and other personnel, Qiu Tianxing made some calculations in his mind and changed the numbers that need to be memorized to [-], [-] and [-].

It has been reduced from nearly 12 to [-], and the battalion commander's rights have also been greatly reduced.However, this is only the plan of the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs, and the opinions of the main combat troops have not yet been understood.So Qiu Tianxing asked Wang Yanxi, the commander of the Guards Battalion who was silent at the side.

"Commander Wang, you have heard the opinions of the Military and Political Department, and I want to hear your opinions."

Hearing Qiu Tianxing asking himself by name, Wang Yanxi stood up hastily, then bowed and answered respectfully.

"Our Guards Battalion has no objections and obeys the arrangements of the Military and Political Department."

Wang Yanxi was not a soldier, he used to be a staff member of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.As for pulling him to the position of battalion commander, it was just to calm the relationship with Zhou Zhen.From the battalion commander of the Seventh Battalion to the battalion commander of the Guards Battalion, Wang Yanxi just let go of the shopkeeper.Qiu Tianxing asked him, just as a gesture.

After nodding his head, Qiu Tianxing signaled Wang Yanxi to sit down, and then Ni Zhan continued to report.

"The formation of the Front Army in the Zhejiang War was relatively good. The Ministry of Military and Political Affairs believed that it could be set up as a fixed formation. After considering the pressure of the defense zone and the region, the Front Army can have between two and five battalions."

Following Ni Zhan's words one by one, Qiu Tianxing also calculated in his heart.Now the standing strength of the security regiment is worth 50, and the strength of the public security team, the agricultural guard, and the joint defense team is not included in the 50.In this way, the downsized battalion can be compiled into seven battalions.Wouldn't it be possible to form only one or two front armies?In this way, wouldn't the chief officer of the front army have more power?
As if seeing Qiu Tianxing's worry, Ni Zhan continued to explain.

"Normally, an army only has two battalions, but if the battle is fierce and requires a large number of troops, it can temporarily increase the number of troops to three battalions, or even four or five battalions. After the war, the additional battalions will be disbanded, and the front army still has only two battalions. compilation."

"At present, the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs proposes to set up two armies, the first army and the second army, to be responsible for the defense of the southern Zhejiang and Anqing front lines. The candidates for the commander of the army and the three new battalion commanders after the reorganization of the army are also left to the chairman to decide .”

"Okay, the Military and Political Department will write a detailed reorganization plan for this matter and send it to the Youth League Office! Next, Minister Liu, how is the new base of your Political Propaganda Department going?"

After the report was over, Ni Zhan sat down. After standing for half an hour, he still didn't move, his waist and legs couldn't stand it.After sitting down, Ni Zhan quickly stretched his waist and kicked his legs, which made him feel much more comfortable.

After Ni Zhan finished speaking, Liu Jincai also stood up and said.

"Chairman, as of yesterday, the Political Propaganda Department has dispatched a total of 110 working groups to Jiangxi, Hubei, and southern Zhejiang. Now news has come that large and small Seven or eight base areas. However, these base areas have not been established for a short time and lack many experienced cadres. In this regard, the comrades of the Ministry of Civil Affairs need to cooperate. It is estimated that in the next few months, there may be dozens more base."

Since being criticized by Qiu Tianxing last time, Liu Jincai has been focusing on the work of opening up base areas.It's just that it's not easy to open up a base area, just a dialect is a headache to death.Fortunately, the security team now has a great career, and there are comrades from all over the world, so these comrades have become the leading party.In order to highlight the emphasis on opening up base areas, I asked several bureau-level cadres to lead the team in person.

Qiu Tianxing also knows that the establishment of a base area is not a one-shot thing, but a process of time.Only after a long time will the people in the new base area trust and follow the security regiment, and then the base area will become a real base.

"Well, we must pay close attention to the new base areas, and we must not relax the ideological construction of the troops. The combat effectiveness of the soldiers is not only in the hands of the military chief, but also closely related to the preachers at all levels. Care for the soldiers, love the soldiers, but we must strictly demand the soldiers , your Political Propaganda Department can't ignore this point." Qiu Tianxing beat Liu Jincai slightly.

"Yes, my subordinates will bear in mind the chairman's teaching." Liu Jincai replied hastily.

"Well, the army is going to build three new battalions soon. You sort out the information of the department-level and bureau-level cadres in the army and in the department, and then send it to the regiment office."

"Yes, the subordinates will sort out the materials after returning and send them to the regiment office as soon as possible." Liu Jincai said.But at this moment, he was thinking in his heart, the addition of three training organs can drive a series of positions, did it make his confidant move?

"Minister Wang, what is the current production capacity of the ordnance factory? Can you guarantee the annual consumption of 50 troops?"

"Returning to the chairman, the ordnance factory can produce 25 firecrackers and [-] bronze cannons in a month. There is no problem with tens of thousands of swords, long guns, and plate armor in a month. However, the iron materials are a little tight. Recently, there are more in Taiping Mansion. With the opening of three iron factories, the shortage of iron materials will be alleviated in a few months." Wang Fu replied nervously.

"The production capacity of the ordnance factory is too low. Since the raw materials will be sufficient in the second half of the year, the ordnance factory must start to expand from now on. If you lack people, you can recruit them yourself. If you lack money, go to the Ministry of Finance. I will give you a note and bring them with you when the time comes." The plan is to get the money directly. However, I have something to say first, the quality of this weapon must be guaranteed. Weapons are the second life of soldiers, so I don’t want inferior weapons to take the lives of soldiers. All factories under the equipment department must establish Strict quality inspection system, waste products must not flow out of the factory. If the weapons in the hands of soldiers have quality problems, the Military Law Department of the Military Commission will investigate to the end, and trace the craftsman numbers and quality inspection numbers of each stage of the production process according to the weapon numbers. If there is a problem during production, just take the person directly!"

Although Qiu Tianxing's words were not high-level, Wang Fu was terrified when he heard them, and he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.He stammered.

"Yes, yes. The subordinates must strictly control the quality, and must, must not let the soldiers use inferior weapons."
