Chapter 107: Personnel Appointment (Please watch the new book)
Upon hearing Li Guoyao's question, Xu Hu immediately said: "Brigade, yesterday we suddenly received a commendation order from the Military Commission. In view of the fact that our rear detachment of the 76th Army captured Jiaxing after the fall of Songjiang City, reinforced Huzhou, and went down to Jiaxing. The brigade killed the Chief of Staff of the Shanghai Expeditionary Force, Akira Muto, and the Deputy Chief of Staff, Okamoto Oka, in the direction of Shanghai, and also killed the Commander of the Shanghai Expeditionary Force, Prince Asaka Palace Hatohiko, at Shiroyama. The Military Commission decided to use our rear detachment as the backbone. The 67th Army Independent Brigade also appoints you as the Major General Commander of the Independent Brigade. Lao Wang and I are the deputy brigade commanders, and Lao Ma is the chief of staff!"
Li Guoyao nodded and said: "Then which army does this so-called independent brigade fall under, and what is its organization?"
"The order of battle is naturally affiliated to the 67th Army and is directly under the jurisdiction of the military headquarters. As for the establishment of our independent brigade, it is a two-regiment B-type brigade. That is, one brigade has two B-type regiments, including all technical arms. The additional number of troops is 3,687."
Hearing this, Li Guoyao immediately breathed a sigh of relief. In this way, the designation of the 67th Army has not been revoked. Since the designation has not been revoked, it means that General Wu Keren's reputation has not been slandered by Xiao Xiao, which makes Li Guoyao feel a little better.
"Are those soldiers outside the supplementary troops given to us by the Military Commission?" Li Guoyao asked again.
"No, those are the broken troops we gathered along the way! As for the replacement troops of our independent brigade, the reply above is this. The Military Commission wants our brigade to return to Nanjing City immediately, and then enter the city to replenish weapons, equipment and troops. At the same time, Our unit has also been included in the order of battle of the Nanjing Garrison."
"Then the big guys in Nanjing didn't say whether they wanted us to enter the city?"
"That's not mentioned. After all, Brigadier, you were on the front line in Suzhou before. No one knows when you will come back. In addition, our brigade only has a thousand people, and people may not think highly of us. It's so big anyway. There is no shortage of people like us in Nanjing." Xu Hu replied.
"Well, let's talk about the situation of the troops!" Li Guoyao said.
"Reporting to the brigade, our unit now has a total of 4,862 soldiers. Including the more than 150 people you brought back, the total strength has exceeded 5,000! Since you are not here, we will temporarily The soldiers are organized into two regiments, but all the officers are temporarily vacant, waiting for your return to decide!"
Li Guoyao nodded and expressed satisfaction!
Not only because Xu Hu and others overfulfilled the task of gathering the defeated troops that he assigned, but more importantly because of the attitude of Xu Hu and others. You must know that in his absence, when the troops were reorganized, they could completely act as deputy brigade commander. However, Xu Hu and Wang Zhanhai did not appoint officers as officers. Instead, they made all the officers available. This was to respect him as the brigade commander and to avoid suspicion.
"If I remember correctly, the establishment of a standard B brigade should be two infantry regiments of 1,500 people plus one company each of processing troops, artillery, and guards, right?"
"yes!"
"Okay, now our number of soldiers has exceeded the rated number. Now give me an order. The establishment of the two main regiments will remain unchanged. It is still three battalions with 1,500 people. However, the establishment of the directly affiliated troops will be expanded to battalions, that is, brigades. The subordinates have one battalion each of engineering, artillery, fire support, guard, and reconnaissance troops.¡±
Then Li Guoyao continued: "Let me announce the personnel appointments of each regiment and battalion. First regiment commander Zhang Tengjiao, deputy commander Huang Shang, chief of staff Wu Dajun, second regiment commander Xie Baojun, deputy commander Lu Wenlong, chief of staff Xue Dengyu! Guard battalion commander Lu Dashan, deputy battalion commander Lu Zhanwu! Engineer battalion commander Zhang Hao, artillery battalion commander Ni Zhiliang, reconnaissance battalion commander Lu Fengying, deputy battalion Chang Jiang Feng."
Having said this, Li Guoyao suddenly looked up at Lin Yudie and others, and then asked: "Brothers Miss Lin, Yang Le, and Liang Yong, one of you has a special status, and the other two are from the 11th Division of the 18th Army. , I would like to ask the three of you what you plan to do in the future?"
Hearing Li Guoyao suddenly stop and ask this question when appointing the main officers of the brigade, everyone understood what Li Guoyao meant. It was very simple. If Lin Yudie and others wanted to stay, then there must be some of the main officers of the independent brigade in the future. Their position, but if they are not willing to stay, then Li Guoyao obviously will not waste energy on them.
Lin Yudie also understood what Li Guoyao meant, thought about it and said, "Brother Li, I really want to stay and help you, but I have a mission and must go back to recover, so please don't blame me!"
Li Guoyao nodded, and then said: "We have been together from birth to death in Songjiang City. There must be a reason why you can't stay. I won't blame you!"
Then Li Guoyao turned to Yang LeheLiang Yong said: "What do you mean, two brothers?"
Before Yang Le and Liang Yong could speak, Lin Yudie said: "Two senior brothers, I know that you are actually quite miserable in the 11th Division. If you are willing, then stay. I would like to say that with Li Big brother¡¯s commanding skills will definitely lead you to kill everyone on the anti-Japanese battlefield in the future!¡±
Yang Le and Liang Yong looked at each other, both happy, but Yang Le seemed to have thought of something, and then frowned and said, "But where is the master"
"You don't need to worry about my dad. I can just go and talk to him. He won't have any objections!" Lin Yudie said.
"Well, I'm willing to stay!" Yang Le said.
Liang Yong also said immediately: "I am willing too!"
Li Guoyao nodded and said: "Thank you two brothers for your new appointment, and welcome to join the independent brigade. Now I appoint Yang Le as the commander of the independent brigade fire support battalion, and Liang Yong as the captain of the military region's telecommunications brigade. I will oversee communications matters at the brigade headquarters! Does anyone have any opinions?"
"No!"
Everyone is quite satisfied with Li Guoyao's personnel appointments, because Li Guoyao has fully considered the balance between the Hunan faction and the Northeast faction when making appointments. The leader of the first regiment, Zhang Tengjiao, was from the former 67th Army, and the deputy commander, Huang Shangze, They came out of the 16th Division. The commander of the second regiment, Xie Baojun, was from Hunan, and the deputy commander, Lu Wenlong, was from the Northeast. Basically, he was evenly matched.
"Since everyone has no opinion on the personnel appointment, let's talk about the next battle situation. Chief of Staff, please tell everyone about the current battlefield situation!" Li Guoyao said.
Ma Desheng immediately stood up and said: "Everyone, according to the intelligence we have collected in the past three days, the 10th Brigade of the 11th Division of the Shanghai Expeditionary Army on the enemy's North Road captured Zhenjiang yesterday; the 16th Division After capturing Jurong on December 5, they continued to advance towards Tangshan on the 6th; the 9th Division had launched an attack on the 51st Division of the defending 74th Army Wang Yaowu in Chunhua Town."
"The 114th Division of the 10th Army on the enemy's South Road captured Moling Pass south of Nanjing that day. The 6th Division also arrived there on the same route. The 9th Infantry Brigade of Guo Qiden had captured Langxi on December 3 , began to advance from Langxi to Ma'anshan on the 6th, intending to cross the Yangtze River from there, and then attack Pukou from the north of the Yangtze River. The enemy's 18th Division has advanced westward from Guangde and is preparing to attack Ningguo through Cross Pu."
"Based on the above situation, as of December 6, the enemy's two armies, seven divisions and two brigades belonging to the Central China Front, except Ma'anshan and Wuhu, have not yet occupied Zhenjiang, Jurong, Tangshan, Chunhua and Moling. Guan has formed a situation of siege on Nanjing in the south of the Yangtze River."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Guoyao asked again: "How did Nanjing respond?"
"We don't know much about the situation in Nanjing"
Before Ma Desheng could finish speaking, Lin Yudie said: "I know this matter relatively well, so let me speak for you!"
Then Lin Yudie stood up and said: "Not long ago, the Chairman issued a series of orders to prepare for the defense of Nanjing City. First, the Capital Garrison Commander's Department was established, with Tang Shengzhi as the commander, Luo Zhuoying and Liu Xing as deputy commanders, and Zhou Lan as staff officer. Commander, and promulgated the order of battle for the capital garrison, including the 72nd Army Sun Yuanliang's Department (88th Division), the 78th Army Song Xilian's Department (36th Division), the Capital Guard Army Gu Zhenglun, and one of the other special forces."
"At the same time, the Chairman also announced that the Nationalist Government would move its capital to Chongqing and move its headquarters to Wuhan as the command center for the subsequent Anti-Japanese War. The Seventh Theater Command was also established, with Liu Xiang, Commander-in-Chief of the 2nd Reserve Army, being renamed Commander-in-Chief of the Theater Command. Chen Cheng, the former enemy commander-in-chief of the third theater, was appointed as the deputy commander-in-chief of the theater. The commander's headquarters was located in Wuhan. He also ordered the 2nd column of Liu Xiang's command post to advance eastward and support the Nanjing operation together with the third theater."
"In addition, the Military Commission also assigned the current tasks to the Third War Zone, the Seventh War Zone and the Capital Garrison. In addition to holding the Guangde and Wuhu areas, the Seventh War Zone must leave its left wing with strong troops in the Anji and Xiaofeng Mountains to attack on camera. The enemy's flank will delay his advance. After the third theater begins to advance in accordance with the previous order, powerful troops must be left in the mountains south of Longtan and north of Guangde to delay the enemy's advance, cover the main force's movements, and destroy Important transportation line.¡±
"Each war zone must coordinate with the capital garrison and maintain freedom of movement against the enemy. Troops that have suffered excessive losses should be ordered to retreat to the area west of Ningguo and Wuhu, and actively replenish and be on standby. The capital garrison must not only stand firm Outside the established positions in Nanjing, we should coordinate closely with the troops in the third theater to support each other and defeat the enemy's besieging army."
Lin Yudie then continued: "Last night, the Nanjing garrison commander, General Tang Shengzhi, made a decision based on the situation reported from the front line to concentrate all the troops in the direction of Zhenjiang to Nanjing. In view of the fact that Xu Yuanquan's 2nd Army Corps and Ye Zhenzhi were fighting on the front line. Zhao's 66th Army and Yu Jishi's 74th Army suffered heavy losses and were all forced to withdraw to the second defensive zone. In short, the Japs' front is now infinitely close to Nanjing City. If we want to enter the city and fight, we must speed up. , otherwise it might be difficult to enter the city."
