Yes, Xue Yue's straightforwardness and attention did not make Wu Yizhi feel any discomfort. On the contrary, he was very grateful that Xue Yue gave him such an opportunity and paved the way for him to rise.
No matter which one of the two positions of director of the theater cadre training regiment and commander-in-chief of the theater guard force is released separately, it is a highly valuable position. Putting these two positions on Wu Yizhi's head is not a matter of attaching importance to it. What?
Especially the Cadre Training Corps, to put it bluntly, is equivalent to a smaller version of the Central Military Academy. Anyone with a discerning eye can understand what it means to let him be the director of education.
As for the position of leader of the theater security force, no matter who takes the position, as long as the ability is not too poor, it is a lucrative position to gain credit and seniority.
Why is it said that it is about taking advantage of merit and qualifications? There are three reasons for this: first, the theater guard force is well-equipped and has strong combat effectiveness; second, the theater guard force is not small in size, it is the size of an entire division, which is equivalent to the original 88th Division. It belongs to the ace unit sequence; thirdly, with capable generals such as Zhang Tianhai and Zhou Fangjie in this unit, are we still afraid that we will not be able to win the battle?
Wu Yizhi is a smart man. After he learned this from Xue Yue, he understood the latter's intention - you know, he has accumulated contacts and military exploits, and he must use them in the next step. .
"To be honest, Brother Xiqi, if you can serve as the director of the war zone cadre training group and the commander-in-chief of the war zone security force, it will solve a lot of my worries... With you by my side, I can do a lot I can feel relieved a lot about things." Xue Yue said from the bottom of his heart.
"Sir, your words are serious. This is Xi Qi's responsibility." Wu Yizhi said seriously, "Obeying orders is a soldier's bounden duty."
"This is what I mean. When we were in the First Corps, we were only in charge of fighting for about a hundred thousand people. But it's different now. We are in charge of the food, drink, and care of hundreds of thousands of people, as well as the balance of each unit. The development between us. The Japanese army is now eyeing our ninth theater again. If Changsha is lost, then I will be a sinner for the ages. Brother Xiqi, you have to help me..." Xue Yue felt a little emotional. After all, Wu Yizhi He also led the First Corps with him.
"Don't worry! Sir, as long as I, Wu Yizhi, am at these posts for a day, I won't cause you any trouble." Wu Yizhi promised.
"By the way, I believe you have come into contact with Zhang Tianhai, right? He is said to be a thorny person, but he seems to be quite obedient. But he is not a thorny person, right? In this war, when it comes to developing troops, he is always cautious. , This guy has a lot of scheming and cunning." Xue Yue said helplessly. He had already read the report. He asked for guns, money, and food. The behavior of bandits was not like this. bad.
"Oh, by the way, sir, I have something to ask you." Wu Yizhi said seriously, "It's about the security forces in the theater."
"Just ask, tell me everything you know," Xue Yue said cheerfully.
"It's about the theater guard force. Now that the theater guard force has essentially reached the size of a division, do we need to adjust the organizational structure? Or should we still control it according to the scale of one division and three regiments?" Wu Yizhi finally said I couldn't help but ask, because from this moment on, he had the position of commander-in-chief of the theater security force. Although it was said to be a part-time job, the specific situation must be understood clearly, right?
"Brother Xiqi, I have actually thought about this issue a lot, but I have come to the conclusion that it is better to maintain the status quo." Xue Yue said.
"Why?" Wu Yizhi was puzzled, because in his opinion, a system of two brigades and four regiments might provide better command.
I saw Xue Yue think for a while and then said: "Because of the First Regiment of the Theater Guards, this unit is actually its own entity. They have an artillery battalion with more than a dozen artillery pieces, an independent cavalry battalion, and even a guard company. , special agent company, and engineer company are all available. When Nantianpu was attacked, it was the First Guard Regiment that exerted great strength to capture Nantianpu and annihilated more than 3,000 enemy troops in one fell swoop. For such a unit, if it is restructured, it will definitely do more harm than good. As for the other two regiments, they can follow the First Guard Regiment to take advantage, and then use Zhang Tianhai to lead these two regiments. I think it is feasible. It’s extremely high.”
"I understand, then. In this case, I think it is better not to change the structure of this unit. If the combat effectiveness is reduced, it will also be a loss for the theater." Wu Yizhi nodded and said.
"Yes, according to my idea, the security forces in the war zone can use the First Guard Regiment and the Second Guard Regiment as the main combat forces. The Third Guard Regiment is essentially the reserve force of the First Guard Regiment and the Second Guard Regiment. Completely qualified. How this unit develops, I want to see how they play." Xue Yue said with amusement on his face.
Yes, just for fun.
When Wu Yizhi saw Xue Yue's expression and contacted what he said, Wu Yizhi understood immediately - this unit was actually the unit that Commander Xue personally wanted to arrest. He was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the theater security force, but he was just one of them. Just the content.
"Don't worry! Xi Qi will never touch anything that shouldn't be touched." Wu Yizhi said something very accurate.
"That's the best thing you can think of, but I suggest you go to the front line to see this unit. After all, you are the commander-in-chief. No matter what, you have to go and see your own unit." Xue Yue said seriously. .
Wu Yizhi nodded and said: "Please rest assured about this, sir! I will leave tomorrow. I don't even know where the security forces in the war zone are now. Please let me know, sir."
"The theater security forces fought a victorious battle half a month ago and completely annihilated a regiment of the Japanese Sixth Division. According to Zhang Tianhai, the First Guard Regiment suffered heavy losses, including the Second Guard Regiment. and the Third Guard Regiment also suffered some losses. By the way, this is the list reported by the theater security forces. After you arrive, you must watch them carefully. After all, Zhang Tianhai has a lot of twists and turns. You You have to pay close attention." After saying that, Xue Yue stood up, returned to his desk and picked up a report submitted in the name of the theater guard force, and at the end he did not forget to remind Wu Yizhi.
When Wu Yizhi heard the news, he suddenly felt older. He thought it would be very troublesome, but he didn't expect it to be so troublesome, and he still went with a mission.
But no matter what, Wu Yizhi is the new commander of this army after all, so he said: "Yes, sir. I will definitely pay attention to this humble position."
As he spoke, Wu Yizhi took the list handed over by Xue Yue.
It doesn't matter. When he saw it, Wu Yizhi was startled. He said: "Isn't this the lion's mouth? They suffered losses, but they didn't lose so much equipment, right? The key is to win the battle. , it’s not like we lost the battle.”
