Chapter 505: Reorganizing the Independent Battalion (Part 1)
No matter how much the three major generals and division commanders secretly denounced Tang Dao as a little expert wielding a hoe, this is the military camp.
The camp is made of iron, and the soldiers are flowing water!
Some people leave and some come.
Putting away the sentimental emotions of parting, Tang Dao took Lei Xiong and others to see off several generals. Wang Gongyu was also very straightforward, turning around and leaving without any delay.
It can be seen that this person who was able to reach the position of a fifth-grade official in the officialdom did not come out of thin air. Once he made a decision, he would never look forward or backward.
After losing the remnants of the Songjiang Security Regiment that he spent a lot of money to build, the military order from the headquarters also came down, appointing him as the major general counselor of the Jiashan frontline headquarters to assist Lieutenant General Guo in charge of logistics supplies. Although his authority was not great, he was involved in the distribution of baggage. No matter which army he went to for supplies, no one dared to ignore him.
There is no need to go to the front line to work hard, which is exactly in line with Commissioner Wang's wishes, so he was naturally happy when he left.
After sending away what should be sent and what should not be sent, Tang Dao immediately held the first military meeting of the independent battalion in the underground bunker in the station that could hide an infantry company.
Those who are qualified to participate in the military meeting include the former deputy battalion commander of the Four-Hing Battalion Lei Xiong, the captain of the Four-Hing Battalion Leng Feng, the lieutenant of the Four-Hing Battalion Li Jiujin, the lieutenant of the Four-Hing Battalion Cheng Tieshou, the second lieutenant of the Sixing Battalion Gu Xishui, and the former deputy battalion commander of the Songjiang Garrison Battalion. Guo Shouzhi, former deputy battalion commander of the Songjiang Guard Battalion Zhuang Shisan, former commander of the fire support company of the Songjiang Guard Battalion Pang Dahai, former deputy commander of the second company of the Songjiang Guard Battalion Qian Dazhu, former platoon commander of the cavalry battalion of the 67th Army Special Agent Regiment Lu Sanjiang, former Zhao Chengxi, commander of the first company of the second battalion of the Songjiang Security Regiment, and Zhu Heicheng, former commander of the first company of the third battalion of the Songjiang Security Regiment.
Leng Feng was promoted to major again after this battle. Cheng Tieshou and Pang Panghai were both promoted from lieutenant to captain after this battle. They were also considered senior officers in the independent battalion. Qian Dazhu, Lu Sanjiang, and Gu The three people from Xi Shui were simply top soldiers half a month ago, and now they have only been promoted to lieutenant and second lieutenant. Are they qualified to participate in this military meeting, which is the highest level of the independent battalion?
The three of them were personally named by Tang Dao to attend the meeting. Obviously, these three will definitely be vigorously promoted and reused by Tang Dao. This was tacitly understood by the officers who participated in the meeting and those who did not.
The two men in the security battalion may be more representatives of the remnants of the Songjiang Security Regiment. After all, they have nearly 500 people, accounting for almost half of the officers and soldiers of the independent battalion currently stationed in the camp.
There is naturally no table in the underground bunker. Half an hour ago, Erya, Xia Dayu, and several soldiers from the guard battalion built a simple long table with bullet boxes. The chairs are naturally made of bullet boxes.
Although it is a bit crude, it has a bit of the flavor of a battlefield.
The officers sat down one after another, but they were somewhat distinct. Lei Xiong and several officers from the former Sixing Battalion sat on the left side of the 'long table', while Guo Shouzhi and Zhuang Shisan sat on the right with officers from the former Guard Battalion. On the other side, the company commanders of the two security groups thought for a while, but they sat on the side of the guard camp. It was probably because of the presence of an old acquaintance, Zhuang Shisan, that the acquaintances still had an aura of intimacy when they met.
Lu Sanjiang took a look and was obviously a little confused. He was about to sit in the corner, but Gu Xishui waved him to sit next to him. Lu Sanjiang strode over and sat on the Sihangying side.
Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes.
Apparently, there are also newly formed independent battalions.
This way of sitting represents several forces in the independent battalion that is about to be established, including the Four Elements Battalion represented by Lei Xiong, the guard battalion represented by Guo and Zhuang, the remnants of the security group, and the single Lu Sanjiang. A cavalry platoon leader who has yet to find a sense of belonging when fighting alone.
Tang Dao, who was sitting alone at the top of the long table, watched with cold eyes. Of course he understood everything in his heart, but he didn't say anything.
This phenomenon exists everywhere. Everyone will subconsciously stick to the people they are familiar with and close to. This is the most normal human nature. What he has to do is how to knead everyone here together in the shortest possible time to form a whole, a whole composed of original small groups, instead of busy breaking up the original small groups.
That would take enough time, but now, he doesn't have time.
"Everyone, due to changes in the war situation, our department has now been ordered to establish an independent battalion directly under the 43rd Army. If you have any ideas, you can put them forward before I come up with the reorganization plan. Don't wait for me to come up with the reorganization plan before putting forward your opinions. I But we don't have that much time to revise and revise to satisfy everyone, and the Japanese army won't be waiting there all the time. The time left for us is only one day at most.” Tang Dao got straight to the point.
Everyone was silent.
Everyone sat upright, their eyes fixed on the simple table covered with bullet boxes in front of them, as if they could see the yellow and orange bullets in the bullet boxes through it.
That thing is a favorite item for soldiers on the battlefield, but it should never be used at a conference. "What's the matter? On the battlefield, everyone is quite capable of talking to each other! Are you going to turn into a mouthless gourd in a meeting?" Tang Dao knocked on the bullet box in front of him. "It seems that I have to invite them one by one!"
Pointing to Li Jiujin, who was staring at the bullet box seriously as if he could see a flower in it: "Come on, Li Jiujin, tell me! What do you think we should do with this reorganization!"
Li Jijin shrank his neck, stood up, and said with a grimace: "Sir, there are Deputy Battalion Commander Guo and Deputy Battalion Commander Zhuang here! Then it's my turn as a small platoon leader to speak! Oh, no, no A month ago I was just a squad leader! Please forgive me!"
That pitiful look looked like a scumbag who was asked questions by the teacher in class.
"Damn it, this old veteran is really not a good bird. You are so evasive and don't want to talk about it. You are making trouble for me! Why don't you mention Lieutenant Colonel Lei, the first adjutant in line!" Zhuang 'Xueba' He glanced sideways at Li Jiujin, who had a bitter look on his face, and wanted to spit the old soldier's grease on his face.
Reorganization, of course, requires re-appointment of military positions, and it is very likely that various departments will be disrupted and reorganized. The most terrible thing is that Tang Dao has just said that he will only be given one day, which is a problem for everyone here.
Of course no one wants to take the initiative to be the villain.
But veteran Youzi took the initiative to call his name. Guo and Zhuang couldn't pretend they didn't hear it. After looking at each other, Guo Shouzhi took the initiative with some helplessness: "Sir, in my opinion, if you want me to be independent, In order for the battalion to form combat effectiveness as quickly as possible, it is better to retain the original company structure of the guard battalion temporarily, and the personnel losses caused by the battle will be made up by personnel transferred from the security group.
In addition, the various units of the Sihang Battalion will be disrupted and filled into the remaining members of the merged security regiment. The veteran brothers of the Sihang Battalion will serve as squad leaders of the security group. Some outstanding ones can be promoted to deputy platoon leaders. All platoon leaders and company commanders at the grassroots level will be recruited from the Sihang Battalion. Officers serve as officers, and the original officers of the security corps, except for a few outstanding ones, are demoted by half a rank in their original positions and become deputy assistants, while their military ranks remain unchanged. "
As soon as these words came out, there was no change in the faces of Lei Xiong and others, but the expressions of the two security regiment commanders were extremely ugly.
The combat effectiveness of the security regiment is not as good as that of these regular troops. The veterans of the Sixing Battalion who fought through the **** battle of Songhu are trustworthy commanders. They do not deny these two points and are willing to accept such reorganization. But they can All their existing officers have been demoted, which is unacceptable.
Could it be that all their achievements in guarding Songjiang and guarding the Jiashan defense line were wiped out in this way?
This is actually the most normal psychology of human beings. Whether you can be promoted or demoted does not depend on the size of your authority, but it also affects your face!
Perhaps except for these two people, the reorganization plan proposed by Guo Shouzhi is a plan that everyone else here thinks is feasible.
The original three infantry companies and the fire support company of the garrison battalion continue to be retained. Although there are new transferred personnel, the overall familiarity is maintained enough that they can be directly put into the battlefield without having to spend any effort to get familiar with each other.
Fighting requires more than just a group of people with guns. It also requires sufficient tacit understanding and trust.
As for the Sihang Battalion, although the overall organizational structure was completely disrupted, everyone from soldiers to officers served as squad and platoon-level commanders, and the basic skeleton was still them. In a sense, the Sihang Battalion was only expanded five or six times. Familiar comrades are still around, so there is no big feeling of strangeness.
Lei Xiong, who had always been unruly, nodded slightly without looking at it, which was regarded as recognition of Guo Shouzhi's suggestion.
"Okay! This is a good suggestion. I've written it down." Tang Dao nodded. "What are other people's opinions?"
"Sir, after this battle, our army's inventory and transportation of captured combat materials were extremely chaotic and disorderly. I suggest that a baggage force must be established!" Master Zhuang calmed down and said.
“Yeah!” Tang Dao nodded.
Perhaps after these two people opened their mouths, the officers stood up one after another to express their opinions.
There are both opinions on the reorganization of the newly established independent battalion, as well as a summary of the problems exposed in the battle.
