For Zhang Tianhai, a unit that can be used as an arm to command is really important. Company-level cadres are basically appointed directly from the original platoon-level cadres, but obviously there are still not enough cadres. For example, Wang Yongcheng’s Fourth Battalion, Reluctantly, three company commanders were gathered together. Only one company commander was from the 11th phase of the Central Military Academy, and the other two were officers with little education.
Obviously, this result is not satisfactory to Zhang Tianhai. As for the directly-affiliated regiments, they don't expect a lineup of officers like the Thirty-sixth Division. They should at least be basically educated. A unit that is good at fighting usually has a relatively low illiteracy rate.
As for the platoon leader, he is directly promoted by the experienced veteran squad leader. As for the squad leader, he is still served by the veteran squad leader.
When this situation arises, we have no choice but to do so. After all, the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs has so far given nothing but a number and position. The most important thing is cadres. Can a force be quickly built into a force capable of fighting? In the army, the quality of officers is particularly important.
After issuing these appointments and orders, Zhang Tianhai once again did a very bold thing, which was to make these squad leaders single squad leaders and form a temporary company directly under the regiment headquarters with all the remaining soldiers, even though there were only more than 140 The number of people is not enough, but it is still better than having dozens of armed forces that are not fully completed.
After issuing the order to form a company directly under the temporary regiment, it was already two o'clock in the morning. Zhang Tianhai dismissed all the officers and told them that all officers and soldiers would gather at eight o'clock the next morning to announce important matters.
Not long after lying down on the recliner at the regiment headquarters, Zhang Tianhai fell into a deep sleep. There were too many things to do the next day.
As usual, the fire and cooking started at 7 o'clock in the morning, and everyone was full by 7 o'clock. After walking around the station, Zhang Tianhai asked the sentry to blow the assembly whistle in advance.
Looking at the two distinct groups in front of him, Zhang Tianhai breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing that these people had initially formed a direct group under his own arrangement, he still felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart.
The officers and soldiers standing in the square column on the left are the battalion commanders, company commanders, platoon commanders and squad leaders appointed by Zhang Tianhai last night. To put it bluntly, they are the backbone of the regiment directly under Zhang Tianhai. These people are gone. Then the waist of the directly affiliated regiment will be broken and it will be unable to carry it.
Standing on the right is a team composed entirely of large-scale soldiers. Their phalanx is smaller than that of cadres. After all, there are only 315 people left in the Lao First Battalion, together with Zhang Tianhai and Xu San. Including dogs, a total of 162 people were transferred to serve as cadres. How could there be so many?
If I had to use one word to describe the direct regiment at this time, it would be a bit like the Caotai regiment with more officers than soldiers.
Regarding the position of company commander of the company directly under the temporary regiment headquarters, Zhang Tianhai generously handed over this position to Xu Sangou, who was about to take over as the platoon leader of the regiment's guard platoon.
Today's task is also very simple. In general, there is only one sentence, that is to rob people!
That's right, it's about robbing people. For such a strengthened regiment that is extremely short of soldiers, soldiers are undoubtedly very important. With people, everything is available.
Zhang Tianhai is still very relieved about the military discipline of the directly affiliated regiment. After all, it is the old army he brought here. Although the team has been reshuffled once, military discipline must not be changed.
According to battle reports from the front line, the Japanese army has reached the Jurong and Changshu areas, and a large number of troops have flowed out of control towards Nanjing, and there must be soldiers at these detention centers.
"Brothers, this time I divided everyone into two teams, not to create the so-called confrontation between officers and soldiers, but to have another task today. Our direct regiment was established, but the commander's department did not give us soldiers. This is We need to find a way ourselves, so I can only make this decision. I, Zhang Yulin, would like to ask you all, do our direct regiments really have to rely on these 316 people to go to the battlefield? You really want others Are you looking down on our direct team?!" Zhang Tianhai asked.
"I don't want to!" The answers of the officers and soldiers present were all unanimous. Whether they are officers or soldiers, only when the directly affiliated regiments are stronger can they win the battle. Only when the battle is won can those who die will not be unjust. If only based on these three What can a hundred people do except die?
Here, their positions are consistent and their interests are also consistent - they are not afraid of death, but they do not die in vain.
"So, the purpose of forming a temporary direct company now is to have a team that can be more fierce than the opponent when we go to snatch people. After we snatch the people back, this temporary direct company will be disbanded. At that time, I added each squad as the basic strength of our directly affiliated regiment, everyone. This violation of military discipline is really a helpless act. I, Zhang Yulin, can't lead us all to death, can I? The future of the directly affiliated regiment depends on everyone." After finishing speaking. , Zhang Tianhai performed a first-class military salute, and the officers and soldiers below also returned the salute.
