¡°According to the leadership¡¯s request, our staff department is preparing to expand again by 20 Class A divisions, with a total of 420,000 combat troops in order to adapt to the upcoming operations and the occupation of huge territory in the future.
As for the local garrison and security regiments, each county has expanded from one local garrison and two security regiments to one county with two local garrison and three security regiments.
At the same time, young people of appropriate age will be registered for military service. "
Yang Jie paused after saying this before continuing: "As for the reorganization plan of the fifth theater, our staff department will follow your request.
Reorganize their troops and implement them according to our organization. Each infantry division has 21,000 men. In addition, their previous group army organization and military level organization were cancelled. All corps commanders, deputy corps commanders, corps-level staff officers, and senior leaders of the group armies were temporarily put aside.
After this war is over, the entire army will be reorganized. As for the weapons and equipment of the fifth theater, in the temporary reorganization plan, all of them will be temporarily equipped with Japanese weapons. From our weapons warehouse in Nanjing, we have already mobilized previously captured Japanese weapons and equipment.
Now they are preparing to be transported to the fifth theater. After the weapons and equipment arrive, they will begin the final reorganization! "
Zhou Weiguo nodded after hearing this. As for why the fifth theater is not equipped with the Nanjing Army's standard weapons and equipment, there is a reason.
Whether it¡¯s a Browning heavy machine gun, a mg43 general machine gun, or a g43 semi-automatic rifle, you want to maximize the firepower of these weapons.
It is necessary to carry out running-in training.
"Otherwise, even if the soldiers in the fifth theater can use these weapons quickly, they don't know how to maximize the power of these weapons. This will not work.
So now it¡¯s better to use Japanese weapons on them first, since they are more familiar with this stuff anyway.
Zhou Weiguo nodded after hearing this: "Yes! Not bad! How is the war on the battlefields on the front lines?"
It¡¯s already the end of January, and it¡¯s the coldest days of the year.
"The fighting on the front line has slowly begun to calm down. In the past few days, it has been snowing heavily throughout the north. Our air force has been unable to fight, and even the logistics department and transportation have had some difficulties. The little devils have also begun to stop because of the cold weather. Attack, but fight trench warfare with us in the trenches.¡±
When Yang Jie said this, there was no surprise in Zhou Weiguo's eyes.
Because he had expected this a long time ago. The only thing he didn't expect was the intensity of the little devil's attack.
Originally, the purpose was to occupy Shangqiu and squeeze the living space of the little devils into smaller ones.
But who knew that the plan could not keep up with the changes, because the Japs were determined to attack, so until now, they have not occupied Shangqiu.
"Trench warfare is trench warfare! The most important thing now is not the battle, but the problem of the soldiers. Almost all of our soldiers are from the south. Now they are fighting in the Xuzhou area, where it snows heavily every year and the weather is extremely cold.
Are our soldiers¡¯ winter clothing fully prepared? There are also foods to keep out the cold, which must be high-calorie foods. Otherwise, it will be difficult for our soldiers to withstand the cold in the north! "
For Zhou Weiguo, the biggest enemy now is not the little devil, but the weather, but the natural climate!
Nowadays, China has a vast territory, from Northeast China to Yunnan, Hainan and other places. Although they are all within the same country, the climate differences are very large.
In Hainan, Yunnan, Guangdong and other places, the general temperature throughout the year is relatively warm, unlike in the north.
When it¡¯s hot, it¡¯s damn hot, and when it¡¯s cold, it¡¯s damn cold.
So in this case, the soldiers in the army are all southerners, so we have to consider the weather.
And originally many things in the army have unified regulations.
For example, for example, military uniforms, each person is given as many sets of military uniforms as they need, and they are all the same.
But this time is different, the soldiers have different winter clothes.
As long as you feel not warm, you can go to the logistics department to get cotton-padded clothes. This is unlimited.
This is why at this time, when it was already freezing and snowy, Zhou Weiguo was still asking whether he was fully prepared for winter clothes.
¡°Don¡¯t worry, leader! Our soldiers¡¯ winter clothes have already been prepared and fully prepared. As for food, unless there are special circumstances, hot food must be eaten at every meal.
Regarding the issue of food types, Liu Zhihui, the director of the Logistics Department, knows this better than we do. forwardThe soldiers on the front line mainly have fruits, various meats, and chocolates produced by our industry some time ago. In addition, each soldier is also equipped with two taels of white wine every day to keep out the cold.
Every day, a certain amount of the coal we dug out in Huainan will be transported to the front line for the troops to make fires and cook! "
"nice!"
Zhou Weiguo nodded. Whether it was Napoleon or other countries such as Mustache in history, when they fought against Lao Maozi, they were not defeated by the enemy, but by the weather. The cold weather defeated the French and German armies.
Xuzhou City, the northern position of the Nanjing Army.
This is the position of the 132nd Division, the 1st Brigade, the 1st Regiment, the 2nd Battalion and the 1st Company.
Yang Mingquan, the squad leader who got lost with the troops during the street fighting in Nanjing, has been promoted to the position of second lieutenant company commander after experiencing the Battle of Nanjing and the Battle of Shanghai.
Now he and some brothers from his company are setting up a marching pot at the rear of the position, with burning wood and a few coals underneath.
The water in the pot is boiling, and there are some meat and vegetables rolling around inside.
In this season, if you want to eat vegetables, it is impossible in the north of this era.
But in the south, especially in Guangdong, Guangxi and other places, this is not impossible, but a very normal thing.
These vegetables are shipped from Guangdong, Guangxi and other places. After all, people cannot live without eating vegetables for a long time.
"It's true! You said it's true up here. We were all freezing to death fighting in this snowy day! I had never seen snow before, but now that I have seen it, my bones are almost frozen to death!"
A soldier complained while lighting the fire.
"Okay! What do you know, kid? If we really wait until spring to start the war, our people in the north will really be doomed.
This time, the little devils have mobilized an army of more than one million people. The various arms before and after us have also mobilized nearly 700,000 troops. The total number of our two sides is 18.9 million.
It is normal for such a big battle to last for several months. Then spring will be the time to sow. If we fight like this, how will the people sow? If they don¡¯t sow the seeds then, they will go hungry. We start fighting now, and if nothing else happens, we can end the fight not long after the beginning of spring.
This will not delay the people from sowing seeds. If you are lazy and wait until the weather is warm before fighting, the people will not kill you! "
Yang Mingquan smiled and explained that these things were also told to him by his superiors, saying that the first battle of Jianghuai was like this. In order not to affect the people's farming in the coming year, the war was started when the Chinese New Year was coming. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
