Chapter 522: Troop reorganization, four military divisions
Today, the combat troops of the Hebei, Shandong and Yu Military Region have four main regiments, one independent regiment, two enhanced mountain artillery companies, a cavalry company, and a tank company.
In addition, more than 5,000 new recruits have gradually developed their combat effectiveness after a winter of training and following the main force in the field for nearly two months.
In order to completely form a complete system for the troops of the Hebei, Shandong and Henan Military Region, Zhou Weihan ordered each regiment to send all the new recruits accompanying them back to the military region headquarters for assembly. At the same time, the two mountain artillery companies that cooperated with each regiment to fight were returned to the direct jurisdiction of the military region.
On that day, the heads of each regiment gathered in Leijia Village, where the military region headquarters is located.
Several regiment leaders all know that with the base area now firmly established, the Hebei, Shandong and Yu Military Region will inevitably move toward formalization like the Tainan Military Region.
This involves the division of interests, and several people, as leaders of the combat troops of the Hebei, Shandong and Yu Military Region, are all beneficiaries. Of course, Zhou Weihan has to cut the cake himself.
As several people had guessed, Zhou Weihan had already made plans for the development and planning of the Hebei, Shandong and Henan Military Region. After Zhou and Tan jointly reported it to the Eighth Route Army Headquarters, it was officially implemented.
In the compound of the military region headquarters, the sun is shining brightly.
"Haha, come on, come on, everyone, smoke!" Li Yunlong grinned, unable to hide the smile on his face.
It turns out that when Li Yunlong was in the Tainan Military Region, he was far from familiar with Jing Dagang and the others. Li Yunlong and Ding Wei were in a small group, and Jing Dagang, the commander of the new second regiment, formed his own system, including the guard company commander of the 22nd regiment.
Wu Qin, who was born in Wu Qin, formed his own sect in southern Hebei.
However, as Zhou Weihan deliberately broke up various small groups, everyone arrived in Hebei, Luyu, and after some joint operations, they became extremely familiar with each other.
Therefore, there was a scene where Li Yunlong took the initiative to invite everyone to smoke. In the past, Jing Dagang and the others would not have been enough.
As soon as Zhou Weihan and Tan Lin entered the headquarters compound, they were followed by Zhou Weiguo, commander of the independent regiment, and Shen Yulin, commander of the mountain artillery company.
Seeing Li Yunlong and a group of people smoking in the courtyard, Zhou Weihan couldn't help but frown. Tan Lin was not a good smoker. Zhou Weihan only found out after observing on weekdays.
"Commissioner, political commissar!" Li Yunlong and others quickly saluted.
"Okay, the weather is suitable, let's hold the meeting here!" Zhou Weihan pointed at the big millstone in the courtyard, and then several accompanying guards quickly moved stools into the house.
A meeting affecting the Hebei, Shandong and Yu Military Region began in a small courtyard.
After everyone sat down, Zhou Weihan went directly to the topic: "Originally, the political commissar wanted to have a private conversation with me, but you are all old comrades, so I suggest that we save this trick and call you here today, so you know what you are doing!"
Several people looked at each other and smiled. Li Yunlong opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but when he saw that the others were silent, he simply closed his mouth.
"Hehe!" Zhou Weihan smiled when he saw this: "The Hebei, Shandong, and Henan regions are not small. Just the northern Henan, straight south, and southwestern Shandong areas covered by our military region are vast enough!"
"With such a large piece of land, if we want to turn the base into an iron bucket, we must have a strict organizational structure. Therefore, after the military region reported it to the headquarters, it was finally decided to establish four subordinate military divisions!"
When several people present heard this, they immediately became energetic and their ears perked up.
"Military divisions are divided according to regions, Zhangbei, Zhinan, Henanbei, and Southwest Shandong!"
"The original Tainan Three Divisions were abolished and merged into the Zhangbei Military Division. With the Zhang River as the boundary, it covers Cixian, Linzhang, and Cheng'an counties, and radiates to Wei County and Daming County at the same time!"
"Wu Qin, you will be the chief military officer of the Zhangbei Military Division. It has jurisdiction over the Ci County Basic Cadre Regiment, the Southern Hebei Basic Cadre Regiment, and the Third Regiment. You will coordinate all the affairs of the Hebei, Shandong, and Henan Military Region in the north of Zhanghe River. After the meeting, you can
Go north!" Zhou Weihan said to Wu Qin.
"Yes!" Wu Qin stood up and saluted.
Wu Qin was a little surprised to be appointed to the military region. He originally planned to take root in Hebei, Shandong and Yu, but he was happy to be able to return to a familiar place and continue fighting.
"The Zhinan Military Division includes Neihuang, Nanle, Qingfeng, Guancheng, the west of Guanxian County, and the north of Liangpu area. The military chief is Jing Dagang, and Zhou Weiguo is the chief of staff. It has one regiment, an independent regiment!"
"The Northern Henan Military Division includes the east of the Pinghan-Han Railway, Junxian, north of Huaxian, and west of Neihuang. The chief military officer is Wang Yigong. The future tasks of your military division are mainly to control the Ping-Han Railway and roads bordering the defense zone.
Infiltrate the counties near the Qing Dynasty Railway and the Japanese military transportation lines!"
"Yes!" Wang Yigong replied, the expression on his face was neither sad nor happy.
Among them, Wang Yigong was once the leader of the military division. Now the newly established Northern Henan Military Division is in the worst situation.
The defense area borders the Japanese transportation line, and most of the territory is undefendable. In contrast, the Zhinan Army Division is protected by layers of fraternal forces and has a much better environment.
However, Wang Yigong has always been a person who refuses to admit defeat easily, and he is confident that he will gain a firm foothold in northern Henan.
At present, there is only one southwestern Shandong military division that has not yet been determined. Li Yunlong stared at Zhou Weihan with fiery eyes.
"The Southwest Shandong Military Division is centered on the mountainous area of Luling Town. The first priority is to develop eastward. The chief military officer is Li Yunlong. The area in Southwest Shandong is very large, but how far the Southwest Shandong Military Division can develop depends on your own ability!
Zhou Weihan said to Li Yunlong.
"Haha!" Li Yunlong immediately laughed after hearing this. The sky is high in southern Shandong and the emperor is far away. In addition, Zhou Weihan gave him a verbal guarantee. Li Yunlong likes this kind of unrestricted development. His future development will all depend on his own ability.
"I probably have some idea of the casualties of each of your regiments!"
"The troops are about to be reorganized and replenished. Weapons and equipment will be uniformly allocated by the Munitions Department. The first regiment will first rebuild the missing first battalion, second battalion and four companies, and then form an independent second regiment with 1,500 people!"
"Based on the original regiment and battalion, the Southwestern Shandong Military Division selected 1,000 recruits to form an independent third regiment. Xin Tiebing served as the regiment commander and chief of staff of the military division!"
Zhou Weihan was quite generous to Li Yunlong. The combat effectiveness of his regiment and battalion were among the best in the Tainan and Hebei-Shandong-Henan military regions. However, Zhou Weihan did not allocate them to Li Yunlong at the moment.
"Yes!" Li Yunlong responded. Ever since he knew that he was going to southwest Shandong, Zhou Weihan had not mentioned the First Battalion. Li Yunlong also planned to use all his strength after the meeting, but he could not reach the First Battalion, and the organization was transferred back to the First Battalion.
Group it.
"The Northern Henan Military Division has established an independent fourth regiment with a staff strength of 2,000, and the remaining personnel form a military region security company!"
"The artillery battalion of the Hebei, Shandong, and Henan Military Region was established with twelve mountain cannons, twelve infantry cannons, and a combat artillery battery. Shen Yulin served as the artillery battalion commander!"
"After the meeting, all ministries quickly reorganized and replenished their troops, and then stationed themselves in various defense areas!" Zhou Weihan finally said.
