Chapter 1168, Candidate for Division Commander
Inspector of the 230th Division?
Zhang Yong was keenly aware that this was a boomerang.
You don’t recognize the 230th Division?
?Then do you want an inspector?
reject?
As if it does not exist?
OK.
It can be completely rejected.
But this is equivalent to not catching the serve.
You can accuse the opponent of serving illegally. But if you don’t catch it, you don’t catch it.
“They are all human beings!” Director He shook his head and sighed.
“I agreed.” Zhang Yong did not hesitate.
Since the opponent has already served, he follows it.
The situation of the three divisions before the Northeastern Army is also relatively bad, and they can be sorted out in the end.
?It is of course impossible to build an elite main force. However, it is still possible to organize it into a decent army. As long as the command is in your own hands.
Then find a few people to help carry it. He, Zhang Yong, is only responsible for coordinating behind the scenes.
If it doesn’t work, just poach people from the Red Party.
A division, do you want it? If you want, send a few people over.
Anyway, the Red Party has a lot of talents. hey-hey.
Ask for money and catch spies.
If you need someone, go to the Red Party.
Perfect.
Where can I find the Red Party?
Simple.
There are several yellow dots within a radius of 1000 meters.
The number of yellow dots is much greater than the number of red dots. This shows that the Red Party has quite a foundation here.
Even, right next to He Guoguang, in the camp, there were yellow spots.
Judging that he may be a member of the officer corps. Probably a cadet. Huangpu Department.
?No one in the world has anything in common.
Red parties are everywhere…
"That''s fine." Director He nodded, "The other side is finally willing to give up a division."
The so-called inspector. In fact, the meaning has changed a bit.
In name, he is an inspector. In fact, it requires command authority.
To put it bluntly. It is Jinling who wants to directly command the troops.
The troops under supervision will only listen to the Jinling Government in the future and have nothing to do with him Liu Xiang.
This is tantamount to cutting flesh from someone else’s body. Of course others are not happy.
Therefore, if the opponent surrenders the 230th Division this time, they will definitely bury the enemy secretly.
“What is the current situation of the 230th Division?”
“I don’t know.”
“Ask that Chief of Staff Yang?”
“No need to ask. He will be here in a moment.”
"come over?"
“Yes. Come and explain to me the matter of inspecting the 230th Division.”
"oh…"
“You should talk to him face to face!”
"good."
Zhang Yong nodded.
Liu Xiang is the boss representing the Sichuan Army. Will not show up in person.
He Guoguang is a big boss who represents the government and Chiang Kai-shek. Of course, I won’t show up in person.
If you take part in everything big and small, can you still be called a boss?
?Hence, this kind of thing can only be done between Zhang Yong and Chief of Staff Yang.
After all, nominally, he, Zhang Yong, was in charge of the inspection.
From then on, the command of the 230th Division was also under his name Zhang Yong.
"Report."
Sure enough, Yang Zhaoyuan arrived soon after.
Coming with him was Wang Kuiyuan. The commander of the 66th Division was obviously responsible for smoothing things over in the middle.
“Commissioner Zhang.”
“Chief of Staff Yang.”
"please."
"please."
Zhang Yong made a gesture.
There is no politeness.
He doesn''t like to be polite either.
Speak about something when you have something to say.
“Chief of Staff Yang, we have understood what Commander Liu means. What is the situation with the 230th Division?”
“Commissioner Zhang, this 230th Division is quite special…”
“What’s special?”
“First of all, it has more than 20,000 people…”
"How many?"
“Commissioner, the 230th Division currently has 23,000 troops.”
"What?"
Zhang Yong:…
Your uncle!
This is a division?
There are 23,000 men in one division?
Nonsense!
“Due to personnel adjustments, the soldiers who were squeezed out from other units eventually went to the 230th Division. Therefore, its establishment is relatively large. Currently, there are a total of four brigades and twelve regiments..."
“No vacancies?”
"The commissioner can do the counting himself. He can also ask the officer corps to do the counting."
"good."
“After the handover is completed, the 230th Division will be handed over to you, the commissioner, for full supervision.”
"good."
Zhang Yong''s calm and stable mood.
Understood.
This is intentional on the part of the other party.
Deliberately give them a difficult problem. Let them retreat.
You want command of the troops? sure! So, from now on, all expenses of this army will be borne by the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs!
This is also the basic agreement reached between He Guoguang and the Sichuan Army.
Since the army has been nationalized, all expenses will naturally be borne by the Ministry of Military Affairs and Government. The local area is no longer responsible.
However, in fact, the Ministry of Military Affairs and Government cannot do it.
The Ministry of Military Affairs'' military expenditures are also tight. It''s impossible to get everything in place.
It is impossible to allocate 100%.
So, reorganization is reorganization. But it left a lot of substantive clues. The military expenditures of your Military and Administrative Department have been delayed again and again. The troops naturally have low loyalty.
The final result will still have to be borne by local governments. So it was nondescript.
He Guoguang is also a clever woman who cannot make a meal without rice.
There is not enough funding. Want the military to be completely separated from local control. It''s hard.
In fact, money can really solve many problems.
??If the Ministry of Military Affairs directly allocates 100% of all Sichuan Army funds, Liu Xiang''s influence on the Sichuan Army will gradually disappear.
Unfortunately, it can’t be done. The Ministry of Military Affairs can only allocate one-third of the funds.
Also put forward many requirements.
This caused dissatisfaction among the Sichuan army.
“In addition, the 230th Division is seriously short of weapons and ammunition…”
“Specific data.”
“Currently, the 230th Division only has about 300 obsolete old sleeves made in Hanyang, and more than 3,000 rounds of ammunition...”
“No. You are going too far.”
“We are reorganized in accordance with the requirements of the Ministry of Military Affairs.”
“And throw it to me?”
“The Commissioner has great powers, so he will naturally have a solution.”
"good."
Zhang Yong held back his anger.
He did not take his anger out on the other person. After all, they are just messengers.
In fact, if you want to blame this matter, you can only blame Jiang. Find ways to weaken others. His own motives are impure.
The other party is obedient and violative. Do something secretly. It''s a matter of course.
You can''t just let it go.
fed up. No need to endure it anymore. So Xiaoliuzi just stuck you under the quilt...
“Hand over.”
"good."
So we went through the formalities.
Officially took over the 230th Division.
“That rude…”
“He has been arrested.”
"good."
“Official officers who were closely related to him were also temporarily detained.”
"good."
“Currently, the 230th Division has all been concentrated in Deyang.”
“Deyang?”
“That’s the division-controlled area designated by the commissioner! It should be the 230th Division.”
"oh…"
Zhang Yong was noncommittal.
Since it was arranged by the other party. So be it whatever.
Zhang Yong is not the savior anyway. Things are almost done.
It’s going to be nerve-wracking. It takes effort. Difficult. Pull them all down. He just does something easy, simple.
?So what are you trying to do? I don’t need you to save the world...
Taking over the preparation table.
Taking over the roster.
Taken over the division''s seal and official defense.
Because the 230 Division does not yet have a division commander, it is leaderless.
“Please also ask the commissioner to deal with it as soon as possible.”
"good."
Zhang Yong agreed.
?Yang Zhaoyuan and Wang Kuiyuan left.
Zhang Yong pondered for a moment. Shake his head. Then come to He Guoguang to discuss. “Twenty-three thousand people?”
"right."
“They really gave us a big problem!”
"yes!"
"However, we have to eat such a big piece of fat. We are really being counted over there."
"Yes."
Zhang Yong nodded. Agree.
Twenty-three thousand people. Equivalent to two full editors. Strong strength.
It must be known that there are two German weapon masters, 87 and 88, as the first-class main force. The full complement is about 11,000 people.
There are now 23,000 people in the 230 Division. How can we not make people excited?
In other words, the Sichuan-Chongqing Basin has a large population.
There are enough soldiers.
Rich in natural products.
It’s just that the weapons and ammunition are relatively rubbish.
“Solve the officer’s problem first.” He Guoguang is good at grasping the key points.
“Okay.” Zhang Yong had some vague thoughts.
“I am going to delegate all the officers and corps. Directly lead the 230th Division.”
"good."
“They were all transferred from other troops, a total of 150 people. They all have experience in leading troops. Among them, there are about 50 Huangpu students.”
"good."
“But Commander…”
“Teacher. I have someone.”
"who?"
“Long Muhan. He should be the deputy commander of the 89th Division now.”
"he?"
“Yes. I met him in Nanchang.”
"oh…"
He Guoguang pondered slightly. There was no immediate statement.
Zhang Yong knew what the other party was thinking about. I was considering Long Muhan’s background.
“He is from Commander Qian’s lineage.”
“Then let him!”
He Guoguang nodded.
Born in the first phase of Huangpu. Deputy division commander. Qian Wanjun faction.
?These elements come together. There must be a very suitable candidate for the appointment.
“You should call him first.”
"good."
Zhang Yong passed by. Pick up the phone.
Please call the switchboard to transfer to the 89th Division station. Find the deputy division commander Long Muhan.
Why should you call first?
In fact, it is also a two-way choice.
??Of course you can give orders directly. However, it would be boring if Long Muhan didn''t want to.
The 89th Division is also a direct descendant. The 230th Division is a mixed bag. Some people may not be happy if he is transferred from the direct deputy division commander to the miscellaneous division commander.
What''s more, Zhang Yong is responsible for supervising this army. Something special.
“Are there any alternatives?”
"No."
“If he doesn’t agree…”
“I can only ask the teacher for your recommendation.”
“I don’t have a suitable candidate here either.”
“Let’s talk about it then.”
"good."
The two of them discussed briefly.
Not really in a hurry. You will always find someone.
After all, it is a vacancy for a division commander. There must be someone willing to make up for it.
Zhang Yong even thought of Yu Chengwan, Fang Xianjue and others. They should still be at the group leader level now.
You should be excited to be directly promoted from regimental commander to division commander...
In fact, Zhang Yong did not have high requirements for division commanders. Just average ability.
Being well-behaved means that the Japanese invaders will not make dumplings. The Japanese invaders would not be wiped out in one battle.
Fortunately, the risk is relatively low.
In fact, the Japanese invaders’ strategies and tactics were not very clever.
The Japanese aggressors never engaged in a war of annihilation.
Hence, very few national troops were surrounded and annihilated by the Japanese invaders.
Basically, anyone who is not a fool can break out. Unless Chiang Kai-shek is blindly commanding.
??The Battle of Songhu was led blindly by Chiang Kai-shek.
Hesitant. Look forward and backward. Look left and right. Undecided.
The same goes for the Battle of Jinling, without any prior arrangements. When things came to a close, they hurriedly appointed candidates to defend the city.
The result can be imagined.
But the Japanese invaders’ strategy was indeed not brilliant.
??The Japanese aggressors'' tactic was to capture cities and territories. As long as they defeated the enemies in front of them, the mission would be completed.
Their purpose is not to pursue and annihilate the main force of the national army.
Once the target is captured, they don’t even bother to pursue it. Let the national army retreat.
This is true for every battle.
After completing the occupation goal, the Japanese invaders will not care about the next step.
In every battle, the Japanese invaders only deployed enough troops.
It means being able to defeat the national army. But it was impossible to surround the national army and annihilate it.
Unlike the Germans, one Kiev can annihilate hundreds of thousands.
Later, the Soviets regained their composure and annihilated hundreds of thousands of Germans in one go.
Other countries are fighting wars of annihilation.
A large number of troops were surrounded and annihilated, and their vitality was severely damaged. It’s hard to bounce back.
?Although the national army suffered successive defeats and lost divisions and ground, they were all defeated and retreated to the rear. They could fight again after being replenished.
Under such circumstances, a well-behaved division commander can basically guarantee that the troops will not be dumped and annihilated.
finally…
The call is connected.
"Hello…"
“Mr. Long Muhan? I am Zhang Yong. Do you still remember me?”
“Oh, it’s Commissioner Zhang!”
“Mr. Long, I have something I want to discuss with you.”
“Commissioner, please tell me.”
"I am currently the inspector of military affairs in Chengdu. There is a division that does not have a division commander yet. I wonder if Commander Long is interested?"
“Teacher Commander?”
"Yes. Division commander. He has four brigades, twelve regiments, and about 23,000 people."
"so much?"
"Yes. But the situation in the army is more complicated. There may be more difficulties. The work is more difficult..."
“I’ll go.”
"What?"
“As long as the commissioner doesn’t mind, I agree to go.”
"real?"
"real."
"That''s good. I''ll say hello to the attendant''s room immediately."
“Thank you, Commissioner.”
“Waiting for my call.”
"yes."
?Long Muhan replied solemnly.
Zhang Yong was very satisfied. So I hung up the phone.
I didn’t expect Long Muhan to answer so readily. Somewhat unexpected.
??I thought that he, a first-year student in Huangpu, might not be interested in the miscellaneous troops!
?It seems that maybe I can flap my butterfly wings?
Historical events cannot be changed. He doesn''t have this ability. But maybe it can change the fate of one or two people?
For example, changing the fate of Long Muhan.
??If Long Muhan''s life trajectory does not change. He will take the blame for the Lanfeng battle next year. He was shot on the order of Chiang Kai-shek.
However, if he comes to serve as the division commander of the 230th Division, he can establish a relationship with himself. Then, it is impossible for He Yingqin and Gui Yongqing to shift the responsibility to Long Muhan.
Call the attendant''s office.
Find Director Lin quickly.
Simple reporting.
"Shaolong, the committee will definitely agree to this matter. I will report to the committee later."
"good."
Zhang Yong chatted for a few words and hung up the phone.
Indeed, transfer Long Muhan over. Nothing difficult. The committee will definitely approve it.
Hand of the first generation of Huangpu, he was transferred to the rank of division commander of the Sichuan Army. This was his dream reorganization plan.
?So, the problem now is to go to Deyang.
Go and see for yourself what the 230th Division looks like.
Notice.
Set off.
??Yang Zhaoyuan is still accompanying him.
horse riding.
more than a hundred miles.
Stay overnight on the way.
Finally, in the afternoon of the next day, we arrived at the 230th Division station.
Yellow dots begin to appear on the edge of the map.
One, two…
Three, four…
More and more.
After entering the military camp, there were more than 20 yellow dots within a radius of 1,000 meters.
Yes, you came to the right place!
The 230th Division does not have to worry about itself.
Leave it to the Red Party and Long Muhan to worry about! Just watch it.
Assemble troops.
Get ready for roll call.
