    ??After the Zhongwei adaptation, the 1922 adaptation, and the 1924 adaptation, the three adaptations allowed the People's Army to enter the process of regularization.

    "The several adaptations in China's official history, especially after the victory of the Northern Expedition, basically revolved around the purpose of the Chiang Kai-shek National Army to strengthen itself and eliminate dissidents, rather than truly working to increase the army's combat effectiveness.

    Historically, when the all-out war of resistance began in the summer of 1937, the Nationalist Government nominally reorganized the Central Army and the Sichuan Army, the Yunnan Army, the Guangxi Army, the Guangdong Army, the Northeast Army, the Northwest Army and other national armies into a total of 178  divisions (including 3 divisions of the Eighth Route Army led by the Communist Party).  The total combat strength is more than 2 million, which is equivalent to three times that of the Japanese invaders. The individual performance of some weapons is not bad.

    "However, although the Kuomintang Central Army, which accounts for one-third of the total army, has more artillery and the most sophisticated firearms, its infantry and artillery coordination is very poor, and there is no tactical coordination between the ground forces and the air force.  Most of China's miscellaneous armies do not have much access to heavy weapons and mainly rely on infantry weapons to fight.

    The consistent style of Chiang Kai-shek's Central Military System was to use civil war and foreign war to eliminate dissidents. During the battle, he deliberately placed miscellaneous troops in dangerous areas and rarely replenished their losses.

    These miscellaneous troops also tried their best to avoid fighting and protect themselves. Some unscrupulous generals surrendered and became puppet troops when they saw that the situation was not good.  During the War of Resistance Against Japan, the Kuomintang had more than 600,000 troops that surrendered to the Japanese army and were organized into puppet troops. Among them were 58 general-level officers (the army led by the Communist Party) did not have a single company or battalion to surrender during the War of Resistance.  ).

    During China¡¯s Anti-Japanese War, the shameful phenomenon of ¡°traitors¡± who ¡°demoted officials like hair¡± and ¡°dropped troops like waves¡± cannot be avoided by those who review the history of the Anti-Japanese War. Analyzing the reasons cannot be explained simply by weapon factors.

    "Zhang Hanqing has no suspicion of the so-called Central Army or the local army in his heart. If he has, it was before the official unification.  Now, all the armies are unified under the control of the Central Military Commission, so the orthodox and unorthodox views have been eliminated.  He even paid special attention to the differences between the old people's army factions.

    In his view, all armies are national defense forces under the leadership of the People's Party | All talented people can give full play to their talents under the coordination of the United Front Work Department of the People's Party. Only then will the country have centripetal force and cohesion, and the people will have patriotism and a sense of national responsibility.  , the country will be truly strong.  It will not be as summarized by Okamura Neiji, the commander-in-chief of the Japanese invaders: When the Japanese army fought against the Kuomintang Central Army, one regiment (regiment) was enough to defeat a division, and only one brigade was needed to defeat a division of the miscellaneous army!

    The history of China¡¯s Anti-Japanese War and other wars have proven that the key to whether the military weapons are rationally deployed before and during the war is whether it meets the needs of national conditions and military conditions. This in turn reflects the strategic guidance level of the war commander.  Weapons are an important factor in war, but what ultimately plays a decisive role in war is the quality of the weapon operators. The quality of the combatants who control weapons plays a decisive role in combat.

    Historically, most of the Kuomintang's armies (except for a few units such as the India-Burma Expeditionary Force) have had low combat capabilities. From a military perspective, in addition to the poor systematicity and poor standardization of weapons, the key lies in the rotten and dim-witted leadership of the organization and the quality of the weapon operators.  low.

    The Kuomintang army mainly relied on personal relationships rather than military knowledge to promote officers, and recruitment mainly relied on recruiting strong men. The Sichuan, Guizhou, and Yunnan armies were mostly "double-gun soldiers" who smoked heavily and never left their hands. Their mental outlook and military quality were both  You can tell it's bad without asking.

    China¡¯s characteristics of large population and financial difficulties have given those in power a traditional mentality of cherishing purchased weapons and despising human life. In addition, soldiers often desert, so they are reluctant to waste ammunition to train them.

    One thing that foreigners visiting China found very strange at that time was that the soldiers of the "National Army" had advanced German and American guns, but they wore straw sandals barefoot and did not even have a pair of extremely cheap rubber shoes to protect their feet.  A force with such unloved, poorly trained, and illiterate soldiers would certainly not be very effective with their weapons.

    In contrast, the Japanese army at that time had strong combat organization capabilities except for its officers, and its soldiers were influenced by "Bushido" and rigorously trained. Before the infantry went into battle, they had to spend at least hundreds of rounds of target shooting under various conditions.  According to the memories of some Anti-Japanese War veterans, many Japanese soldiers raised their guns and fired while riding in vehicles, and they were still able to hit humanoid targets within 100 meters with relative accuracy. Their operation and maintenance level of technical weapons was far superior to that of the Kuomintang army.

    Although Japan was the aggressor at that time, as Mao Zedong said in "On Protracted War", the Japanese army's clever tactics are still worth learning.  It is absolutely beneficial and harmless to despise it strategically and pay attention to it tactically.

    Through a comprehensive and objective analysis and review of the weapons comparison between China and Japan during the Anti-Japanese War, Zhang Hanqing strongly felt that: backward weapons does not meanSeptember, and will strictly restrict non-military students from entering this position in the future, so that the ability of the command system can keep up with the development of the world's military;

    Lower-level officers must gradually achieve the goal of keeping the illiteracy rate below 10%.

    In this way, by improving the quality of officers, the combat effectiveness of the troops will be enhanced.

    ¡° However, when using weapons for confrontation in modern warfare, in addition to individual performance comparisons, the weapon configuration also needs to be optimized according to combat requirements.

    As an industrial country that dominates the world with its strong organizational power, Japan has followed the requirements of the development of modern warfare in the world before the war of aggression against China in its official history, and configured its military equipment.  Between the army and the navy but no independent air force) and the ground forces and ships, and between the army and the infantry, artillery, cavalry and armored forces, the use of weapons can be organically combined, and there will be better firepower coordination during wartime.

    The structure of China's modern warlord forces is backward. The important manifestation is that most of them are single infantry, a small number of artillery, mechanized troops and air force are poorly planned, and they lack awareness and training of collaborative operations.  Such large and disorganized troops will often be defeated by a small but capable and orderly enemy. This is also the current weakness of the People's Army.

    It takes time to integrate all resources. The question is, will the Japanese give China enough time to complete this task?  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
