After the division and brigade commanders left, Wang Guangyu and Yi Jianping had a simple meal and then talked to the military and political leaders of the detachment. Wang Guangyu did not ask how Yi Jianping and Wang Zhaofang talked. But
When looking for a candidate for the detachment leader, he did not directly explain his new position and work to Yang Jicai.
He just made his intentions clear and asked him to come up with a reliable and stable battle plan based on his understanding of the superiors' intentions and the enemy's situation on the route. Wang Guangyu still wanted to be more secure, so during the conversation
At that time, Yang Jicai’s next step was not directly stated.
However, in view of Yang Jicai's actual command experience in front-line operations, he could only serve as acting company commander at most. For the sake of safety, Wang Guangyu still organized the troops scheduled to be included in the roundabout detachment before departure so that he could plan better operations.
Using the plan as an excuse, he was assigned to direct command.
In order to ensure the communication between this detachment, which was separated from the main force after crossing the border, and the main force and the troops leaving the border. In addition to the distribution of walkie-talkies and various radio stations as needed, Wang Guangyu also specially allocated a radio for him.
Communications vehicle and a jeep.
Although it was a little late to sharpen his weapons before the battle, Wang Guangyu did not want the candidate he selected to be Ma Su, who could only talk about military affairs on paper. The reason why Yang Jicai was chosen as the military commander of this detachment was not because of his relationship with Yang Zhen. In fact, Yang Jicai
Wang Guangyu still doesn't know that he is Yang Zhen's biological brother.
But Yang Jicai was very talented in the military, and Wang Guangyu knew this very well. Since Yang Jicai came to work in the Nenjiang Military Region, Wang Guangyu has always admired his military and organizational abilities. Otherwise, he would not have been there before the launch of this campaign.
He asked Yang Zhen for someone, but also put him in the most important position of Chief of the Operations Section of the First Class Main Division.
In Wang Guangyu's view, with Yang Jicai's ability, he can definitely shoulder this burden. But after all, his previous actual command experience was only as a platoon leader, and later he temporarily acted as company commander for a period of time. After the battle last year,
He was transferred to the headquarters as combat staff officer.
Before this battle, he spent most of his time as a combat staff officer. Although his performance in the multi-arms coordinated training at the Fujin Comprehensive Training Base was quite outstanding. During a comprehensive military performance, he also temporarily served as a military officer.
The acting commander of the combined regiment-level detachment has been fully recognized by the headquarters for his organizational ability and military qualities, especially his keen sense of smell that is beyond ordinary people during exercises.
But an exercise is an exercise, and no matter how it is based on actual combat requirements, it is still an exercise after all. The experience of actual front-line command, especially the command experience of regiment-level detachments that combine multiple arms, seems to be somewhat lacking. Allocating the scheduled troops to him in advance can allow him to
Enter the state early.
In addition, after breaking through the national border and dividing their troops, the 23rd Division of Xing'anxi Province in the north was attracted by the main force. Most of the Japanese troops in Rehe were now attracted by the troops leaving the border. This intersecting force should not encounter too many enemies.
There were many Japanese troops. Along their entire march route, they probably encountered more local Japanese and puppet soldiers and police.
On their planned roundabout route, the enemy situation was relatively not very serious. Coupled with Yang Jicai's own ability, this is why Wang Guangyu appointed him as the leader of this detachment. Of course, another reason is the relationship with Yang Jicai himself
Personality has a certain relationship.
Although Yang Jicai is a young man who has achieved great success at a young age, he is highly regarded by several heads of the headquarters, including himself. However, he is quite down-to-earth and quite stable. Although he cannot be said to be comprehensive in handling many things, he is not
The arrogance and arrogance of a successful young man.
He is also very thoughtful and considers problems quite comprehensively. Especially his staff level is definitely one of the best even among the combat staff officers in the entire military region. Let him handle the relationship with the troops inside and outside the customs.
Yes, it's very reassuring.
After the troops were reorganized according to the latest plan, Wang Guangyu was somewhat anxious when he saw that there was only a short time left for departure and Ren Guang, who was going to make a fortune there, had not come back yet. Wang Guangyu was not worried that Ren Guang would not be there.
The sound of gunshots meant that they did not encounter any trouble there. What he was worried about was that his old comrade who was used to suffering would not be able to hold back when he saw a good thing.
There is no way, I was used to it before. Now the conditions are many times better than before, but the troops still can't change this habit of making money. Especially the logistics department, which is an important unit for replenishing supplies, in
The problem of scratching as many lines as possible on the battlefield has never been completely eradicated. I even had this idea myself, and I indulged the troops below intentionally or unintentionally.
Although the captured light weapons of the Japanese army are no longer looked down upon. Heavy weapons must also be handed over to the headquarters for unified deployment in accordance with the requirements of the headquarters. However, other materials, such as military blankets, well-made cotton coats, and Japanese military supplies mainly made of fine grains
Food and other supplies still make various troops quite envious.
There are also other things such as officers' watches, compasses, and engineering tools, which are also very popular. Although no one dares to keep large quantities of things in private, but small things, if the doctrine and regulations allow it,
Under this, after each battle, each unit can obtain a lot of things privately.
Not to mention others, the First Division in front of me each wore a Japanese-style military coat last winter. It was much lighter than the standard coat issued by the headquarters, but its cold protection was not bad at all. It was the military coat they captured in last year's battle.
After that, I left it privately without turning it over.
There are also cadres at battalion level and above. Each person is issued a pair of high-waisted cotton leather boots for Japanese military officers, as well as a complete set of Kwantung Army cotton hats, cotton gloves, and cotton leather shoes. They all come from the same source. Aren’t these all for making a fortune?
Otherwise, where would they get so many cotton winter clothes?
Think again about a division, all cadres above the company have Japanese military standard Seiko watches or pocket watches, and cadres above the regiment each have a Swiss Ingels watch or a German Glas-Hütten military watch, and even a luminous watch specially used by the German Army.
Watch. On Li Mingfeng’s wrist, he was carelessly wearing a German Junkers JU 52 military watch that even No. 1 was envious of.
This watch is a watch specially designed for pilots of the German Junkers 52 transport aircraft. The hands on it are the same as the cockpit instruments of the Junkers 52 transport aircraft. Not only are they luminous hands, but they also have other functions such as an altimeter. Li Mingfeng is an all-military watch.
In addition, it is also the only military watch, which makes No. 1 very greedy.
The headquarters equips division-level cadres with Swiss Ingels watches seized from enemy and puppet trading firms. However, in the first division, this kind of watch has replaced the Japanese-made Seiko watches or the standard equipment of regiment-level cadres in other units.
Citizen watches have become the standard watch for regimental cadres.
As for the division-level cadres of the first division, they all wear German military watches, and they are all high-end products used by pilots. Even the regiment-level cadres, many of them are equipped with German military watches, and no one wears Japanese watches.
.For the first division, it is the equipment of cadres below the regiment level.
If these watches are purchased by the logistics department, the limited funds allocated by the superiors of each army cannot afford them even if they sell iron. If they go out to rob them, the only thing waiting for him is severe military sanctions. The lightest one is dismissal and sentencing.
, or even be shot. That cadre didn't have the courage to rob the people. Even if he knew it was a business run by the enemy and puppets, he wouldn't dare.
Where did these watches come from? They can only be kept privately after being captured. As far as Wang Guangyu knows, before the battle last summer, the Japanese army ordered a batch of military watches from Germany to make up for the gap in the performance of domestic watches. In addition to the navy and
In addition to the communications corps, the Kwantung Army, as a key force, is the priority rationing unit. The origin of those German military watches held by the cadres of the first division goes without saying.
Although Inger watches are more expensive than Japanese watches, they are standard equipment for middle- and senior-level officers of the Japanese army. Moreover, puppet Manchukuo officials also wear such watches as long as their families are richer. During the battle, the troops seized a considerable number of them.
There are many. Moreover, this kind of watches are sold in shops in major cities. Most of the watches equipped by the headquarters to cadres at division level and above are also this kind of watches.
However, these German military watches cannot be seen on the market. Among the Japanese army, they are only distributed to senior commanders at the division level, senior combat staff officers, and technical arms such as aviation. The source of these German military watches is,
Apart from the seizure, you can't buy it even if you want to.
The source of these German watches can only be the foreign wealth made by the First Division troops after the end of last year's battle. You must know that even the headquarters does not have many of these German watches. Several heads of the headquarters also carry ordinary Swiss watches.
It's just a watch, but it's not a popular product like Ingels, but a higher-end Genie watch.
The Rolex watch on my wrist is more advanced than the captured Japanese Citizen watch or even the Inger watch. Wasn’t it also given to me by the former commander of the First Division when he was transferred after the battle last year? If only this watch was
If you use his allowance to buy it, I'm afraid he won't be able to afford it without food or drink in this life. If it wasn't seized, where would he get it?
Thinking of this, Wang Guangyu could only shake his head and smile bitterly. When some problems have become a habit, it is difficult to change them. Fortunately, the troops have made foreign fortunes, and what they leave behind privately can be allowed according to the regulations of their superiors.
Materials handled by the division itself.
Moreover, the watches issued by the headquarters to the troops, in addition to aviation, armor, artillery, communications and other technical arms, the general infantry troops are only distributed to the regiment level and combat staff officers at all levels. Watches are not distributed below the battalion level.
.But the troops are allowed to distribute them themselves after they are captured on the battlefield. Now each of the cadres at the company level and above in the first division has a watch. If they did not make a fortune on the battlefield, where else could it come from?
No one dared to buy and sell these supplies, and all the supplies were replenished to the troops. Therefore, the headquarters turned a blind eye to the phenomenon of troops making a fortune after the battle. As long as it does not violate the principles and superiors
The bottom line is that as long as these materials are urgently needed by the troops and used in combat, they will generally not be held accountable.
