Chapter 221: The Expanded Chinese Militia Corps
Relying on this Shenlong potion, when the militia column was doing business with various countries, it also used these Shenlong potions to sell the military supplies they had reserved early in the morning, and also exchanged for a large number of urgently needed equipment and technology. For a time, all scientific research institutes of the militia column were facing a shortage of personnel, which made Deng Chenggong sigh that the speed of talent delivery must be increased.
Unfortunately, European countries are in full swing now, and sending the top students who have been trained there will undoubtedly push them into the fire pit. The only local Meilijian, which will not be shrouded by the war, has basically reached its limit. This made Deng Chenggong discuss with several education experts in the base area and decided to purchase external recruitment, factories and schools to increase the training of scientific research talents.
External recruitment is to recruit scientific research experts from various European countries who have fallen into the mud pond of war by starting to spread around the world and spending money to ask the consuls in China to help. They are hired to universities and factories in North China to impart knowledge, so that they can save them from the pain of war, and they can also continue to engage in their previous research work.
As for the way of cultivating talents in factories and schools, it is nothing more than the way of joining military and local governments after the founding of the People's Republic of China. Some graduates who have studied related majors are sent to the factory to study with experts and masters with rich work experience, so that they can be independent as soon as possible and become R&D personnel and technical experts urgently needed by the militia column.
During this rapid expansion, Deng Chenggong did not forget to improve the military strength of the militia column. After stabilizing the rule of the three provinces, the positions that the three provinces need to defend must be consolidated. Deng Chenggong once again issued an order to expand the military and replaced the sign of the North China Militia Column with the sign of the "Huaxia Militia Corps". He became the commander-in-chief of the militia Corps accordingly.
As discussed before, the Militia Corps was in charge of four military sub-districts, among which the commander of the Southwest Military Sub-district was Liu Shuangquan, the commander of the Innocent Civil Division, who was promoted by Deng Chenggong, and several main brigades of the Southwest Military Sub-district, formed the first army of the Militia Corps. Liu Shuangquan also served as the commander. The subordinate Civil Division, the 8th Civil Division, the 9th Civil Division, the 1st Artillery Division directly under the headquarters, and the rocket launcher was directly under the rocket launcher. The main forces in the other base areas in the base areas were still selected from the reserve forces to be recharged.
The Northeast Military Sub-district continued to be served by Hu Guangzong and formed the Second Militia Army. The commander was also served by Hu Guangzong, with the former Qian'an Division as the backbone. The Fourth Civil Division (Qian'an Division), the newly formed Seventh Division, the newly formed 10th Division, plus the New Northeast Division and the New Northeast Second Division, the Third Cavalry Division, and the Third Artillery Division, forming the Northeast Army Corps.
The Northwest Military Sub-district was commanded by General Feng, and the Third Militia Army was also formed. The commander of the army still asked Feng Yixiang to serve as the general. With the original Xuanhua Division (Third Division) as the main body, the Fifth Civil Division, the newly formed three infantry divisions of the 11th Civil Division, the First Cavalry Division, the Fourth Cavalry Division, as well as the main militia brigade and grassroots troops in the base area, they undertake defense in the Chahar area, and in case of emergency, they will support the two provinces on the left and right and North China base areas at any time.
Fu Zuoyi's unit, which is currently in the name of the Suiyuan Army, is mainly composed of the 35th Army. The original 101th Division, 31st Division and 32nd Division, are the main forces of the three original divisions. They are also in charge of the newly formed 6th Division of the Militia, the 12th Division, the Second Cavalry Division, the Fifth Cavalry Division, the Second Artillery Division, the Second Artillery Division, and the main divisions of the seven military sub-districts. Plus the main brigade-level regular troops in the base area, the total number of troops exceeds 200,000, which is considered a strong side.
Regarding the expansion of Deng Chenggong, Fu Zuoyi lamented that Deng Chenggong was really bold, and in the selection of new division commanders, the main brigade commanders of the militia who cooperated with him to fight. In this way, it can be regarded as a relief to the senior management of other columns.
Of course, in this expansion, except for the division-level leaders, other regiment-level officers were basically drawn from his three main divisions. This also made many Jin army officers who were interested in further thought that not only did they feel good about fighting with the militia column, but they were also faster to increase their ranks.
Compared with Fu Zuoyi, he would communicate with the headquarters in many cases. Moreover, in order not to make Fu Zuoyi and others feel that their surveillance is too strict, the military sub-district is the commander's political director on the shoulders. However, in the division-level military-level troops below, corresponding political directors have been added. These political directors are trained from the headquarters, which can basically ensure that these troops below will not be pulled away by others. The commander-in-chief still does not know.
The main forces of these militia corps were handed over to the commanders of the four military sub-districts to be monitored and trained. The commander-in-chief Deng Chenggong directly controlled not many troops. Only the 1st Artillery Division, the 1st Artillery Division, the Armored Division, and two newly formed armored brigades that were still lacking in tanks and armored vehicles.
Secondly, the Flying Eagle's fist unit also directly obeyed the orders of his commander. As for these four military sub-districts, each corresponding military sub-district is assigned to a Flying Eagle Squadron of 150 people to prevent combat tasks that may be carried out at any time. However, if these military sub-district commanders want to order the Ape Eagle Squadron to fight, they must also obtain the consent of Deng Chenggong.
In addition to the Flying Eagle Squadron, Deng Chenggong also manages the management of the two flight brigades of the militia column, as well as the arsenal and other factories and schools. In addition, Xu Mingyuan, the political director of the corps who was in charge of his money bags, has fewer troops in his hands, but he also has many things to do.
When Deng Chenggong was busy expanding the column factory and making money, the commanders of the four military sub-districts focused on the cold army, and the entire militia corps set off a new round of training. When those outstanding young people who yearned to join the regular militia army almost doubled their main force this time, they finally had the opportunity to join the militia column that began to enter the rapid development. The people in the base area naturally had a higher recognition of the militia corps for an increasingly peaceful and prosperous life, and they were more willing to let their adult children join the militia unit and contribute their own meager strength to defend the country.
Just as the militia column was busy performing their duties, the Huolingu Grassland area near Chahar and Rehe suddenly came a news that made the herdsmen and people close to this area frightened. That is, in recent times, a large-scale plague has occurred on the Huolingu Grassland. Not only the herdsmen there have been infected. Even the livestock that the herdsmen have been stocked up in large numbers have died, but now the entire Huolingu Grassland is in a state of chaos.
What scares the people in the jurisdiction of the militia corps near the Huolingguo grassland area is that after the Japanese learned that the herdsmen were infected with the plague, they even set up a warning line of hundreds of miles on the periphery of the grassland, so the people who chose to go to the enemy war zone in the northeast to find treatment or escape will shoot them in sight. The Japanese consciously drove these herdsmen infected with the plague to the newly occupied areas of the militia.
They even felt relieved that they had withdrawn all the defensive troops originally arranged on this grassland and pulled up a defensive line outside the Huolingguo grassland. They seemed to be generous in sending the Huolingguo grassland to the militia corps. This trick of moving the eastwards made the militia troops deployed there not knowing whether they should stop the herdsmen who escaped from the Japanese.
But once these people are released, the plague spread to the occupied areas of the militia, which will really cause a disaster. However, as a team of the people, they cannot shoot these herders who are ready to escape like the Japanese. So in the end, the militia troops responsible for defending there report to the headquarters of the Northeast Military Sub-district where they are located step by step.
As the Northeast Military Sub-district that takes over the defense here, there are not many troops arranged here, but there is still a way to prevent these herdsmen from coming in. Originally, after Hu Guangzong learned that it was indeed a plague, his first reaction was that he must not let these people escape to his own defense zone. Otherwise, the consequences of the plague will be unimaginable as soon as it spreads.
But he knew very well. When it comes to treating the people, if the militia column really ignores the life and death of these herdsmen like the Japanese, for their current Northwest Military Sub-district, which still accounts for a large proportion of the herdsmen in the three liberated areas, it will inevitably cause those herdsmen to distrust the militia. Once this ethnic conflict really spreads, their Northeast Military Sub-district is better, then the other two military sub-districts will be really in trouble.
The national antagonism that was finally suppressed by Deng Chenggong will inevitably be detonated by this plague. At that time, their rule and management in relatively sparse pastoral areas will inevitably bring great trouble. What should I do? For a moment, Hu Guangzong knew that he could not get the idea, so he finally sent the telegram to Deng Chenggong to seek the commander to make a decision.
Deng Chenggong's first reaction when he received the telegram was that this plague would never appear out of thin air. You should know that there were no natural disasters in the Huolinguo grassland at this time. This plague came so suddenly and fiercely, which must have been caused by man. Moreover, before the news of the plague spread, the Japanese defensive troops prepared in advance to prevent these patients from entering the area they occupied. To say that this was not caused by the Japanese, I am afraid there is really no other reason to convince Deng Chenggong.
Moreover, based on the plague on this telegram, Deng Chenggong finally patted his forehead with some regret, because he actually forgot the 731st Unit that caused the Chinese people to suffer from the sequelae of war in later generations. This Japanese army was specially used to study biochemical bacterial warfare.
This later generation was also the 731st unit of war criminals. The biochemical bombs they produced were not only distributed to the Japanese division troops. What's more, at the moment when their war of aggression was declared defeat, in order to hide the evidence, they were crazy about burying all the huge number of biochemical bombs in China without any protection.
So much so that after the founding of China in later generations, the land was relocated or unintentionally dug out by the people, and the remaining biochemical bombs made the people in peacetime feel the torture of such biochemical bombs. And the Japanese still refused to do this evil deed that they were not doing it.
Such a unit that caused countless casualties and wounded people in China and left countless war trauma would have forgotten. If he had thought about it a little about the past, letting the Flying Hawks sneak into the Northeast to destroy it, perhaps what happened today would not have happened. There would have been no future generations that allowed them to escape back to their homeland in a panic. Only a few war criminals were severely punished, leaving permanent trauma and hidden dangers to the Chinese people.
Deng Chenggong did not consider the plague that occurred on the Huolingguo grassland this time, and rescue was necessary. However, if he could rescue these herders infected with the plague and ensure that this plague was not brought into his base, it was the most urgent thing for him, the commander.
In any case, he could not watch the Chinese people suffer the pain of this war again. This 713 unit was successfully represented by Deng as a force that must be tried and attacked. He wanted these despicable Japanese doctors and experts to pay the price of their lives for their crazy indifference!
