Reorganization is a headache, but it is a problem that all troops must face.
In peaceful times, perhaps there is no need to consider so much. Because in peacetime there are no wars and no sacrifices. Everything just needs to be run as normal.
If some soldiers retire and recruit a group of new soldiers, the matter can be solved perfectly.
However, it was different when the war years came. Almost none of the existing establishment is complete after a battle. It is easy to say that reducing regiments to battalions, battalions to companies, and companies to platoons, but in practice, there will be many problems.
The first thing to face is the issue of military rank. Should a battalion commander go back to be a company commander?
The National Revolutionary Army is different from the Eighth Route Army. The Eighth Route Army has no military ranks and only one military position.
But the National Revolutionary Army is different. Military positions are almost linked to military ranks.
Therefore, moving cadres from the battalion level down to the company level is not good-looking at least in terms of appearance.
But the most important thing is that not only is the turnover of personnel huge, but there are also many uncertain factors.
For example, it only took about a month to establish the independent regiment into five battalions during the Dragon Boat Festival. If we draw it back now, what if we recruit troops? Is it necessary to restore the establishment of five battalions?
Therefore, Duanwu, Lao Abacus, Shangguan Zhibiao and others studied this matter, but in the end they could only put it aside for the time being.
Because two days later, I have to go to Kaifeng during the Dragon Boat Festival. The first thing is to go to Kaifeng for a meeting and pick up Han Fuju by the way. The second is to pull back his weapons and equipment so as not to be missed by others.
Now every army's eyes are green when they see weapons and equipment. If Duanwu didn't go there in person, he wouldn't be worried.
Another point is that Lao Abacus will recruit troops in Bengbu and the towns near Bengbu. If people can be recruited, that will solve a big problem.
Dragon Boat Festival said: Don't be afraid of too many people. If there are too many people, we can pick them up. I'm afraid there will be fewer people. Moreover, the independent group is not short of money or guns, and can accommodate as many people as they come.
Therefore, the Dragon Boat Festival decision to reorganize will be discussed in a few days. Each department still performs its duties.
"Duanwu, what do you mean?"
But at this moment, a man suddenly burst in from outside the door, holding a wreath in his hand and throwing it on the ground.
Duanwu looked around and saw Zhou Weiguo with a livid face. But didn't he go back to gather the team?
Dragon Boat Festival was strange, but Zhou Weiguo still had a cold face, as if someone owed him money.
It was a bit baffling, but Duanwu still walked over and asked: "Old Zhou, what are you doing? Bring a wreath to pay homage to whom?"
Zhou Weiguo became even more angry. He pointed at Duanwu's nose and said, "You kid, stop pretending to me. I'm leaving. If you don't want to, just tell me. Is there anything we can't say in person? Give it to me." What does it mean to go with a wreath?"
"Wreath? Did I send it to you?"
Duanwu was surprised, because he was mentally ill? Are you ready to send a wreath to Zhou Weiguo?
He picked up the wreath, but saw that it was real. It read: "The heroic spirit has become a guest of Pengcai, a native of Defanyumeng."
"Haha, that's a good word."
Duanwu praised, but at this time, Zhou Weiguo almost turned his nose with anger. Thought: What’s the use of good words? Am I still alive? Will you send me a wreath?
Zhou Weiguo said angrily: "Duanwu, you are unreasonable."
"I didn't send this, haha! Am I that boring? If you don't believe me, just ask my boss, Lao Abacus and the others. We are in meetings all the time. How can we find the time to send you a wreath?"
Duan Wu pointed at Shangguan Zhibiao and others, and everyone said quickly: "Indeed, we are having a meeting to study the issue of whether to downsize the army."
Zhou Weiguo looked at everyone's expressions and it didn't look like they were lying. However, his guards said that the wreaths were indeed sent by the independent regiment.
Zhou Weiguo frowned, wondering whether he should believe Dragon Boat Festival, but at this moment, Tang Jiujiu walked in from the door of the command room.
She called Dragon Boat Festival as if she had done something worthy of praise and was waiting for Dragon Boat Festival to praise her.
But just as she was about to speak, she didn't want to see Zhou Weiguo.
Zhou Weiguo's face was livid, and she took half a step back in fright, almost hitting the door.
"What's wrong with Jiujiu?"
Dragon Boat Festival saw that Tang Jiujiu's expression and movements were different, so he asked.
After Tang Jiujiu looked at Zhou Weiguo for a while again, he said: "Duanwu, didn't you say that Zhou Weiguo is gone? Isn't this a good life?"
"··········"
Duanwu was speechless because he also remembered what he had just chatted with Tang Jiujiu.
He knew that Tang Jiujiu had misunderstood, so he could only apologize and said with a smile: "Old Zhou, this is a misunderstanding. When I said you were gone, Jiujiu probably thought you were 'gone'."
"··········"
Zhou Weiguo was also speechless and thought to himself: "You two are really interesting."
But the misunderstanding was resolved, Zhou Weiguo could only smile reluctantly at Tang Jiujiu, then nodded at Duanwu and said: "I'm not leaving, I'm going to Wuhan. Goodbye!"
Zhou Weiguo said goodbye and really left this time.
Tang Jiujiu looked embarrassed and said with a silly smile: "I thought he was 'gone'. That's what our hometown said. You can't blame me."
But at this time, Duanwu picked up the wreath and said, "You are so agile. In less than half an hour, you sent the wreath to someone?"
Tang Jiujiu explained: "It's a coincidence that when I walked out of the gate, I saw someone selling wreaths. Two people pulled a cart with six or seven wreaths on it. But the price was ridiculously expensive. That's it. This thing cost me an ocean. I didn’t bring any money, so the guards paid for it for me!”
"Is there anyone selling wreaths?"
Duanwu was surprised, but immediately gave Lao Snoring a wink.
Lao Shou understood that although there had just been a war in the city and many people died, was it too timely? The Japanese just left and they went to the city to sell wreaths? This is obviously a spy who came to the city to find out information.
Of course, whether it is true or not now is just a guess. Everything must wait until the person is caught.
At this time, after Lao Snoring left, Duanwu said to Shangguan Zhibao: "Sir, although the Japs have retreated, the city is still unsafe. The Japs' spies will take advantage of this chaotic situation to infiltrate again. . We can no longer let the little devil lead us by the nose.
Do you still remember that when I went to Lai'an County, Beibaichuan attacked Bengbu by surprise? What a coincidence. Just when our city was empty of troops, Kitashirakawa came with his men!
This shows what? This shows that there are always Japanese spies lurking in Bengbu City.
We must pay attention to it, and we cannot just rely on the underground party. We must have our own means to deal with Japanese spies. do you understand? "
"Understood, I will focus on catching Japanese spies and turn Bengbu City into the rear base of our independent regiment."
Shangguan Zhibiao accepted the order and immediately left the command room. He is the deputy commander of the independent regiment, and Duanwu is responsible for command matters. He has never found a suitable position for himself.
But now he has found it. He is Shangguan Zhibiao and wants to create a safe rear area for the independent regiment without infiltration by Japanese spies! ...
