Chen Shichang, Bai Liusu, Liu Dakai, Qi Minghao, Bian Jingdao, Chen Wenbu, You Xiaolian and the three brigade commanders under Bai Liusu came in one after another. After everyone arrived, Ouyang Yun pressed the cigarette butt in his hand into the ashtray.
, glanced at everyone and asked: "Does anyone here know Zhang Lingfu? Tell me, what do you think?"
The three brigade commanders were all selected by Ouyang Yun from high-level officers of the Pacific Fleet. The three brigade commanders from the Third Learning Division who came with Bai Liusu were recruited into Liu Dakai's base security headquarters. All three brigade commanders had been
He received training in the U.S. Marine Corps and was now used to assist Bai Liusu in forming the Marine Corps. [Fly]
Gu Lianyun's return allowed Bai Liusu to escape from unfamiliar matters such as espionage. Her terrifying personal combat prowess and her budding command skills made her the perfect choice for the Marine Corps' military chief, which created another new chapter.
A precedent in history - a brand new military branch was actually born in the hands of a woman.
"I agree with President Ji's judgment that this is a conspiracy," Jiang Huangyong first expressed his attitude: "Chiang Kai-shek is too impatient. Americans are pragmatic and know that they can only rely on us to resist the Japanese offensive in Southeast Asia, so President Roosevelt invited Xiao
Sir, instead of him, attend the Cairo Conference. This is a choice made by the Americans on their own initiative, and we only accept it passively. He cannot fan the flames and disrupt the domestic political situation just because of this. This plan must not be implemented, otherwise these people will take charge of the army in the future.
If the troops move toward the Kuomintang-controlled areas, won't we lose our wives and lose our troops?"
"I think it's worth a try," Chen Shichang spoke immediately. He looked at Ouyang Yun and said: "Whether they are sincerely surrendering or have ulterior motives, with the organizational situation of our Xuebing Army, we can eliminate hidden dangers. Military Master
Officer positions can be given to them, but the company and battalion instructors and political directors must be our military trainees."
The Xuebing Army is nominally an armed force of warlords. In fact, except for Ouyang Yun, officers at all levels have very limited control over the army. The Xuebing Army has a clear division of labor. The chief military officer only focuses on training and formulating tactics and strategies; the chief political officer
Responsible for logistics, cultural education, ideological dynamics and other metaphysical things. Although the political chief is a subordinate of the military chief, they also enjoy the right to supervise the military chief. Two-phase checks and balances, coupled with the guarantee of strict military discipline,
This avoids the possibility of the army becoming a private product. In addition, the army only has certain expediency in handling local affairs in war zones during wartime. This makes it difficult for those careerists to cultivate local forces loyal to themselves, which is equivalent to directly blocking their growth into
The necessary military and financial resources for warlords.
Looking back at the Chongqing government, the reason why Chiang Kai-shek has been unable to unify the country's armed forces is one thing. Incompatibility of ideologies is one thing. The most fundamental reason is that some generals regard the army as their personal property and monopolize local affairs with the help of force.
, had inextricable ties with local forces, so they could use the army to bargain with various forces, but Chiang Kai-shek was restrained and did not dare to touch them easily.
Ouyang Yun had been thinking for so long just now. Jiang Huangyong believed that he had made a decision. Seeing that Chen Shichang had different opinions from his own, he did not immediately refute. He just asked Ouyang Yun: "Sir, what do you think?"
"I agree with Shi Chang's judgment. Zhang Lingfu is a fierce general. Don't be dissatisfied. If everyone has the same conditions, you will not be his opponent in a real fight. Record!"
Xinbao quickly listened attentively.
"President Ji, Mr. Jiang, and Vice President Li can act according to the established plan, but the appointment of these officers is limited to military-level officers. In addition, everyone must attend a study class for at least one month, and invite President Ji and Vice President Li to personally
In teaching, we should try to make them familiar with our army's tactical characteristics and agree with our army's army building philosophy. The latter can be gradually studied... If Zhang is interested, he can be invited to Karachi. The Marine Corps is also about to expand, and a large number of reinforcements are needed.
officer."
After finishing the call, Ouyang Yun said to Chen Shichang: "I will go to Karachi in a few days. You must pay close attention to actual anti-submarine combat training. Koizumi Minichiro's shipyard in Singapore has already formed a large scale, and the Malacca Strait has also been dredged by them. We are going to
Strictly prevent Japanese submarine sneak attacks!"
Chen Shichang stood up and said: "Yes!"
Ouyang Yun turned to Bai Liusu: "Liusu, form a teaching team as soon as possible. Before the end of June, the Marine Corps must expand to the size of one corps and three divisions."
Bai Liusu nodded.
Ouyang Yun turned to Chen Shichang again and warned: "Don't be patient with the French. If someone makes trouble while I'm away, you can go directly to Degu."
After the French naval volunteers arrived in Karachi, they performed well at first, but as they were filled into important positions, some French people became arrogant. As De Gu, Yamamoto Isoroku and Admiral Kim said
, the navy is no better than the army, and the Xuebing Army, a land tiger, still has a long way to go before it can turn into a sea shark. The Pacific Fleet was trained according to the tactics formulated by Ouyang Yun and borrowed from that time and space, and
The current naval combat concepts are too advanced, which makes the French quite disapproving. The more they think that the Chinese are not good at building a navy, the more proud they become. However, some key technical arms of the Pacific Fleet can only be done by the French.
, so Chen Shichang could only choose to swallow his anger to ensure that he could successfully steal the army as soon as possible.
After Degu arrived in Karachi, he was relatively cooperative, and Chen Shichang nodded.
After the meeting, Ouyang Yun kept Chen Wenbu. Chen Wenbu, an American of mixed race, was recruited by Gu Lianyun from the U.S. Navy. He was in his early thirties, tall, with fair skin and blond hair. If it weren't for his eyes, he would be black.
Yes, that is a very standard Westerner.
"Wenbu, I have a task for you," Ouyang Yun said straight to the point.
Chen Wenbu stood steadily and looked at him with bright eyes.
"The Pacific Fleet must be controlled by our own people. I hope you can mobilize relations to find more overseas Chinese to come back."
The lack of officers is not just a problem for the army. It also exists for the air force and navy, especially the navy. Ouyang Yunlai thought that the arrival of the French volunteers could alleviate this problem, but now he dare not hold high hopes. The country has been weak for too long
, has long been synonymous with barbarism and backwardness in the eyes of the Western powers. This will not change in a short time. Considering that the war is imminent, and whether the navy can be powerful will directly affect the country's post-war interests, Ouyang Yun thought about it and decided
It was more reliable to find my own family, so I once again set my sights on the United States.
Chen Wenbu nodded: "Commander-in-Chief, I will try my best."
After Chen Wenbu left, Ouyang Yun did not leave immediately. Instead, he sat on a chair and looked at the world map and fell into deep thought.
Being invited to attend the Cairo Conference was indeed something to be proud of, but after listening to Gu Lianyun's analysis, Ouyang Yun suddenly realized that he had overlooked many things. Politics and diplomacy were Ouyang Yun's shortcomings, and also the shortcomings of the Xuebingjun.
The Xuebing Army has already jumped out of the circle of the three southern provinces because of its military strength. The problem is that the Xuebing Army is not ready to handle its own and external affairs from a national perspective, and there is a lack of political and diplomatic talents.
Suddenly it became abrupt.
"Is my destiny to be a little warlord?" Ouyang Yun thought, rubbing his temples and letting out a bitter smile.
