"Isn't it a bit spicy? I'll cook you a soup to relieve the spicy taste."

"Oh, thank you, thank you."

"Thank you sister-in-law!"

…

The virtuous Xiao Zui brought another basin of green vegetable and tofu soup and put it on the table, which immediately made the bunch of animals "grateful", especially A Yi and Chen Jize, the two Jiangnan boys, as if they had seen a savior.

Although Sichuan food is spicy, the pleasure on the tip of the tongue can make people want to stop. Ayi, who had never eaten spicy food before, couldn't help but fall in love with this taste.

"Long Wenwen, don't just eat too much. How many troops have Zen reached now? How many people are there in total?" Liao Mingyu asked in a deep voice.

"Uh-huh... The 7th Division has been temporarily formed, as well as the 122nd and 139th Regiments of the original 66th Army. However, these teams are not enough to be established. Together with the earliest supplementary regiments, the total is more than 14,000 people."

Liao Mingyu nodded slightly. Counting the more than 3,000 remaining members of the Sichuan Army, the number of troops was overstretched and could be reorganized.

"Commander, how are we going to organize our troops? More than 15,000 people are divided into two brigades and six regiments?" Chen Jize suddenly asked.

"Is there no request from above?" Ayi also expressed confusion.

"There is no request, but Chief Song sent a group of mid-level and high-level officers here, probably to install some of his own informants." Long Wenwen said meaningfully while eating rice.

"What are you afraid of when we have people in our hands? Don't be idle when you go back today. Recruit the soldiers who came over and pick out the best and discard the dross. I will pick out all the old, weak, sick, disabled and soldiers.

Materials are also counted, do you hear me clearly?"

Liao Mingyu put down his chopsticks, clapped his hands and said.

"clear!"

…

After Long Wenwen and others left, Liao Mingyu locked himself in the room and started writing the arrangements for the troop establishment with his hands waving.

As the new main division of the national government, the Honorable Third Division naturally has to be organized according to its standards.

The number of division-level units in the current national army is also uneven. According to the most common standard division, it is a simple three-regiment system of directly subordinate units. And other divisions such as German weapon divisions, adjustment divisions, and reorganization divisions

...the number of people is different.

Different from the earliest two-brigade-four-regiment armory division, a fully-equipped main division has three main regiments, one or two supplementary regiments, an artillery regiment and a transportation regiment, plus several directly subordinate units, but does not have brigade-level command.

unit.

In fact, setting up brigades under divisions and setting up regiments under brigades was the most popular practice before World War I. There were 2 brigades under a division, and 2 regiments per brigade, or 3 brigades with a total of 9 regiments, forming a matrix structure.

, the scale is relatively large, and such troops are also called Type A divisions.

However, various countries discovered problems in subsequent wars. First, the troops were too bloated, and secondly, there were many levels of command, which sometimes caused very embarrassing situations in order transmission.

It is difficult for large units to move quickly on the battlefield. If division-level orders are conveyed to the regiment through the brigade level, it will be slower and even delay the fighter plane.

However, if the division-level orders are directly linked to the regiment, then in addition to the daily management functions, the brigade level will become redundant and cumbersome in tactics.

Facts have proved that on the domestic battlefield with the Japanese army, the division level is often used as the main strategic combat unit most of the time. The elimination of division brigades can reduce the command level and allow the troops to respond quickly.

However, the brigade level has not withdrawn from the military establishment. It is more used on the battlefield as an independent combat unit.

Therefore, Liao Mingyu finally decided to reorganize the troops according to the main division. The Honorable Third Division is under the jurisdiction of:

3 main groups (2,400 people per group)

2 supplementary groups (1500 people)

1 independent artillery regiment (1,500 men)

1 semi-mechanized transport group (1,500 people)

1 reinforced security battalion directly under the division (1,200 people)

Based on the quality of the national army, Liao Mingyu estimated that at least several thousand of the soldiers sent over would be laid off by Long Wenwen and others.

Therefore, it is most suitable for the main combat force to be about 12,000 people, and the rest will be thrown into logistics positions.

In addition, there are logistics and supply battalions, engineering battalions, military police battalions, medical battalions, communications battalions... and other auxiliary units. When the division is fully staffed, the total number will be more than 15,000.

The main combat troops are all armed with beautiful equipment, and the basic unit is still based on a 3x3 system of 12 people per squad.

The 3 infantry squad is 1 platoon, and 1 mortar squad is added. (52 people)

3 infantry platoons form a company, with 1 additional heavy firepower platoon, 3 M2 heavy machine guns and 3 bazooka rocket launchers. (Total 200 people)

3 infantry companies form one battalion, with 1 additional artillery company, 12 81mm mortars, 6 37 combat artillery pieces, guard platoon, health platoon, etc. (a total of about 700 people)

Because of the increase in transport vehicles, Liao Mingyu decided to add an artillery battalion to the main regiment level as the next step. However, the 105 howitzer was too bulky and unsuitable.

I remember that after killing so many Japs in Nantianmen, I seem to have unlocked a 75mm field gun. I have forgotten the specific model parameters. This caliber is actually used as regiment-level support firepower. I can only check it after the system upgrade is completed.

Needless to say, the artillery regiment directly under the division was expanded based on the original artillery battalion, with 12 105mm howitzers and 9 155mm howitzers. However, this kind of firepower still could not meet Liao Mingyu's requirements.

A division-level unit, don't you have more than 30 heavy artillery pieces and are you willing to come out and mess around?

As for the two supplementary regiments, except that they do not have heavy firepower, their organization and weapons are the same as those of the main regiment. Their daily training must also be carried out according to the standards of the main regiment, so that the main force can be quickly replenished after damage, and they can also serve as a replacement on the battlefield.

Used by the reserve team.

This is the general framework of the entire division, and adjustments will be made later based on the actual situation.

It was late at night after finishing all the plans and arrangements. After stretching, Liao Mingyu looked at the time and saw that it was almost 3 o'clock. When he got serious, he felt that time flew by quickly.

Xiaozui had already gone to bed. Earlier, she was worried that Liao Mingyu would be hungry late at night, so she thoughtfully went to the kitchen to boil a few eggs and put them on the table in the main room.

Liao Mingyu walked out of the room, peeled off two eggs that were still a little warm, stuffed them into his mouth and chewed them.

After the troops are reorganized, they still need to exchange some weapons and equipment. After all, a team of more than 10,000 people is not comparable to that before, and it is another expense.

Thinking of this, I don’t know what’s going on with the living dad of the system now. It’s been almost a month since the upgrade. No matter how many times he calls, there’s still no response. If it doesn’t come out, it can’t be replaced with equipment.

In addition to the exaggerated personnel appointments of these troops, it is also a headache for such a large army to say that the head of state is 100% assured. Liao Mingyu himself does not believe it. The clues can be seen from the group of officers sent by Song Xilian.

However, there are policies and countermeasures at the same time. At least the three main regiments and artillery regiments must be their own old brothers and confidants, so that the entire army can be controlled and united.

As for those outsiders, if they are obedient, put them in the division headquarters and take care of them. Don't even think about real power. If they are disobedient, it doesn't matter... You must know that many officers will be killed in a battle.

As long as the equipment and weapons are in place and the training of the troops is integrated, one division will not be afraid even if it faces a division of Japs. After Longling is taken down and armored forces are available...
