After completing the mission of occupying the Pearl River Delta, the First Marine Expeditionary Team was immediately transferred to Hong Kong to coordinate with the Navy to launch an amphibious operation against Chaoshan. The camera annihilated the troops under the control of the Guangdong Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Ming Army on Nan'ao Island.
4. Use of military force
The army strength used to implement this operation: 6 battalions of field infantry, 12 companies of field artillery, 2 companies of siege artillery, 3 companies of engineers and other directly subordinate units of the army as required. Its force distribution and usage areas are scheduled as follows:
Middle Route Army, 1st Brigade: With two camps as the backbone, it fought on the Guangdong Middle Route on the Guangzhou side, and the final advance point was Lechang in northern Guangdong.
Left Route Army: 2nd Brigade: with 3 battalions as the backbone, fighting on the Guangdong and West Routes on the Zhao-Qing Wuzhou side. The final advancement place was Wuzhou at the junction of Guangdong and Guangxi.
Right Route Army: 3rd Brigade: With 2 battalions (one of which will be incorporated as the backbone after completing other combat tasks), it will cooperate with the 1st Marine Expeditionary Team to fight on the Chaoshan side of Guangdong East Road. The final advance point will be the Fujian-Guangdong border Xianxia Ridge.
Naval strength: all of the Navy's First Fleet, all of the Coast Guard's Sanya Garrison and Kaohsiung Garrison. A new Pearl River Task Force was established.
Based in Kaohsiung, the First Fleet launched powerful patrols along the coast of Fujian and Guangdong to deter possible military intervention from the Netherlands and Spain, and implemented a comprehensive suppression of the Zheng Group in Xiamen.
If the Dutch encountered armed intervention during the operation, war would begin. immediately
The Sanya and Kaohsiung garrison fleets cooperated with the patrol and blockade operations of the First Fleet.
The Pearl River Task Force is responsible for fire support and troop transportation for operations on the Pearl River inland rivers.
National Army strength
The Guangdong National Army Training Corps was formed with the basic militiamen of the Farm Reclamation Hong Kong Regiment as the backbone. As the basic seeds of the future National Army in Guangdong counties.
Koreans: 4 companies of White Horse.
Japanese team: 2 companies.
Li-Miao Mountain Auxiliary Infantry: 3 companies.
Troops directly under the General Staff
Special Reconnaissance Brigade of the General Reconnaissance Bureau: 2 detachments.
The Army, Navy and Joint Logistics Command established a joint forward command in Hong Kong. Unified command of all military operations.
Next, there is an outline of the administrative implementation plan for the occupied areas.
The parts of Guangdong and Guangxi to be captured have a total area of about 25 square kilometers and a population of about 10 million. The administration of these areas must closely follow the operations. The joint meeting decided on the following administrative implementation plan for the occupied areas.
"Administrative Implementation Essentials of the Areas Occupied by Guangdong and Guangxi"
First policy
Temporarily impose military control on the occupied areas to restore public order. Quickly obtain important defense resources and ensure supplies for combat troops.
Second essential
1. When implementing military control, the remaining governing institutions and organizations should be temporarily used. As long as they can play their basic civil functions, they should not be changed easily.
2. The duration of military control depends on the local security situation and the reception capacity of the civil affairs department. The basic policy is to stabilize one place. Accept one place. The specific timetable shall be specified by the Civil Affairs Minister appointed by the Senate.
3. The loot obtained in the occupied areas should be seized first, then counted and registered by the personnel of the special search team of the Planning Academy accompanying the army, reported to the joint logistics forward command, and incorporated into the overall material plan. As for combat troops, they replenish supplies locally. Book transfers are made according to the above distribution plan. The army and navy should provide maximum convenience for the materials ordered to be transported back by the Planning Institute.
4. Post stations, post roads, major bridges, docks, official offices, official warehouses, free warehouses, etc. shall be managed by the occupying forces.
5. The occupying forces manage trade and exchange, especially to prevent important resources from flowing into enemy-occupied areas.
6. In principle, the occupying forces should try to use the original local currency or use physical objects recognized by the local people for exchange. In an emergency, circulation coupons can be used to pay, but the exchange principles must be clarified, and the amount and location used must be reported to the Planning Institute for future redemption and recycling. The occupying force itself can also recycle itself when supplies are abundant.
7. Except for the property owned by Ming government officials, the property clearly listed as "rebels" and the hostile elements who carried out armed resistance, the property of general gentry, businessmen, landlords and ordinary people were protected and were not allowed to be confiscated at will. Pay on-site delivery based on price.
8. When in contact with local powerful factions such as gentry, clan chiefs, big businessmen, etc., they should be guided to cooperate with the military control we have implemented. Appropriate measures should be taken for those who are unwilling to cooperate to ensure that they do not interfere with our operations.
9. Strict military discipline and strictly handle various disciplinary cases. Appropriate relief can be implemented for local people. Enhance the people's goodwill towards the Senate.
10. Military control agencies will gradually be merged, adjusted or taken over by new agencies established by the government.
The civil affairs department has a complete set of plans for taking over local political power. Since the number of naturalized civil affairs cadres is a drop in the bucket for Guangdong as a whole, the Government Affairs Council adopts a segmented and segmented approach to social transformation when formulating a specific takeover plan.
The entire province of Guangdong was divided into several regions. The first step was to carry out social transformation in the core area, which was the fifteen counties and one state under the jurisdiction of Guangzhou Prefecture in the Ming Dynasty. This area will undergo a comprehensive social transformation and be completely "reborn." Establish the modern administrative structure and social structure currently implemented in Lingao; replace the original subordinate staff class with reliable naturalized civilian cadres - except for a few people who can be educated and retained, all will be purged.
Next is the appeasement zone. Generally, they are states and counties with developed economies, strategic pharmacies or transportation hubs. This area first established relatively complete county-level institutions, focused on transforming towns in the county, and adopted a gradual transformation in which cities gradually radiate to rural areas. Wait until the time is right before carrying out radical social transformation.
Finally, there is the public security area, which includes all states and counties that are not core areas or appeasement areas. The status quo policy will be temporarily adopted for these states and counties. Continuing the Ming Dynasty's previous model of not sending political power to the countryside, the administrative focus was on suppressing armed rebellion, collecting taxes, requisitioning labor and acquiring local resources, without disturbing the local social order.
In public security areas, full use should be made of the original governing institutions and administrative personnel. It is possible to make full use of those old officials and local gentry who are willing to join the Senate and have a good reputation, and they can also be appointed to major administrative positions such as county magistrates as a transitional policy.
However, in the core areas and appeasement areas, one must be cautious in the appointment of old officials and gentry, and they are generally not allowed to be appointed to important leadership positions.
The number of naturalized civilian cadres needed to take over Guangdong, based on the estimate before the establishment of the new regime when the TG began to take over the Kuomintang-controlled areas at the end of the Liberation War, the central bureau, district party committees, prefectural committees, county committees, district committees, etc. needed for 500 counties There are about 53,000 cadres at the fifth level and in big cities. Corresponding to a population of 160 million, there is approximately one cadre for every 3,000 people, and a county has less than 100 people.
Now the Government Affairs Council is roughly configured according to this standard. Since the population in the 17th century was much smaller than that in the 20th century, and the local administrative system of the Senate adopted a two-level system of generals, counties, and townships (townships), there was no longer a prefecture or "prefecture and city" level. The number of cadres is even smaller.
The core area of Guangzhou Prefecture has 15 counties and 1 prefecture. If there are 100 cadres in one county, 1,600 people are needed. The remaining counties also need to equip 10 to 30 cadres depending on the situation. According to rough calculation, the 7 states and 75 counties in Guangdong require about 4,000 local cadres.
The transfer of 4,000 local cadres will put a little more pressure on the Senate. Before the TG's victory across the country, it had established local political power in hundreds of counties and had a large number of local cadres. As long as a portion of each county is allocated, most needs can be met, and it is also possible to accept old staff and recruit new cadres from students in Kuomintang-controlled areas. Although the Senate has established county-level political power across the entire island of Hainan, most of the counties in Hainan have a very small population. Most counties have a population of less than 10,000 people. Administrative affairs are extremely limited, and the number of cadres is naturally small. With the exception of several large populous counties such as Lingao, Qiongshan, Danzhou and Wenchang, most counties on the island can deploy very few local cadres. Fortunately, the number of staff in various central ministries and commissions in Lingao is quite large, and some of them can be transferred to supplement local cadres.
As for accepting old staff, the subordinate class is a special class that is completely degenerate and decadent. Most of the senators are very uneasy about them. Moreover, except for a few, their local administrative skills are incompatible with the modern local administrative system of the Senate. It's completely useless. The Ming Dynasty also had no students with modern primary and secondary education to recruit. Old intellectuals were scarce, and their knowledge systems were incompatible with modern civilization. It is of little significance to replenish the cadre team.
In order to raise these cadres, in addition to transferring 1,200 naturalized cadres from counties, central agencies and state-owned enterprises, 300 older elementary school students from Fangcaodi Academy were selected for immediate graduation and transferred to various The agency serves as an administrative intern and is trained as a cadre going north.
Recruit 500 men and women with junior primary school diplomas or B and C diplomas from the society and implement accelerated administrative training. If it is not possible to recruit enough qualified personnel, it will be relaxed to include those who are illiterate, but they must be under the age of 25.
All older, poorer military quality and poor physical fitness personnel in the army and navy will be retired and replenished into local cadres to serve as armed cadres in preparation for deployment. There are about four to five hundred people in this group.
In addition, local staff who originally worked for the Guangzhou Station can also be converted into local cadres. There are about two to three hundred people in this group.
All in all, about 3,000 cadres can be prepared for the Guangdong and Guangxi strategy. It can basically meet the cadre allocation needs of the core area and appeasement area in the first phase. (To be continued.)
