Chapter 325: Ten thousand people, but only 4 guns, how to fight?
The entire Northeast region can support a million soldiers. However, the Western Manchuria and Northern Manchuria regions have already been occupied by some of Ding Wei's troops, and the remaining Russians are gradually handing over.
As the commander of the camp, after he captured Xinjing, he immediately pressed towards Harbin.
The two large cities in the north must be kept in hand and their industrial capacity must be mastered.
The North Manchuria Railway and the South Manchuria Railway constitute the main railway network in the Northeast region. According to the size of the army of 100 million, Ding Wei alone commanded 40, of which 20 were veterans brought over from the Suirecha Military Region and were not included.
That means Brother Biao can develop a maximum of 60 troops here.
Everyone is divided into three and two, which is in line with the identities of the first and second positions.
The Jinzhou and Fengtian front gathered 2 cadres transferred to the Northeast region, and 10 troops to seize territory needed to be dispersed and stationed in small and medium-sized cities.
The Far Eastern Army was only stationed in large cities, and no one was stationed in small and medium-sized cities.
It is necessary to divide 10 troops into multiple groups and deploy them to various second- and third-level military regions.
The problem was before us. First, in addition to Commander Klin's 16th Army Division, which had taken advantage of the situation and obtained 2 guns and more than 100 cannons from Big Brother Mao, the army grew to about 4 people.
The military strength increased tenfold. There were only 4 troops before leaving the country, but in just one month, it grew to 4.
Other people in the Jireliao Military Region also developed well, reorganizing 8 to troops, with a total of troops.
The other group was the Far East Independent 88th Brigade, which was part of the old Anti-Japanese United Army. After retreating to northern Heilongjiang, it fought back with the Far East Army.
Now stationed in the Songhua River area, the number of troops has rapidly expanded to about 4.8, increasing seven or eight times.
The 88th Brigade had a good relationship with the Soviets, so it received many preferential treatments and received a lot of warehouse supplies from them.
They were able to arm puppet troops, defeated soldiers, and refugees and quickly reorganize them into troops.
The total number of troops allocated from North Manchuria, South Manchuria and outside the Great Wall was 24. Most of the foreign troops could only be stationed in the Liaoxi Corridor and Fengtian area.
Why? Because the Russians did not allow the Eighth Route Army to take over the territory and were waiting for the National Government to come and hand it over.
There were 12.5 troops coming from the interior, 1 of whom were left to garrison in the Rehe area. There were casualties due to illness and injury on the way, leaving 11.3 troops.
The 11.3 people from the Jireliao, Jiaodong and New Fourth Army came here but got nothing. They didn't have enough food to eat and were freezing. They immediately started to complain.
Their morale was low and they were full of resentment. They got some weapons and equipment, but they were all old.
In particular, the 16 people developed in the 8th Military Region of Yunchang and Kelin were equipped with sophisticated Japanese weapons.
However, most of these people were recruited puppet troops, police stations, bandits, guerrillas and other personnel, and their combat effectiveness was very limited.
The main force transferred from local areas was obviously more powerful, but they were equipped with old weapons.
It's inevitable to have resentment, it's your fault for coming late.
Not only are there no weapons, but the supplies are also insufficient.
Clothing, food, shelter, etc. were in a mess, leaving the comrades with no place to rest.
We traveled a long way and came here on foot to seize the Northeast, but it was in vain.
The New Fourth Army's Da Huang was the most direct, mocking the new recruits for having new guns and the old soldiers for having old guns, and suspecting that all these weapons and equipment had been monopolized by the 16th Military Division.
This caused everyone to point the finger at the Jidong Military Region.
There was a huge crisis within.
Lao Kong was a down-to-earth man and the one who cared the most about the soldiers. He could not bear to see his brothers starving and freezing. Knowing that Ding Wei was here, he headed towards Siping alone and found Zhang Dabiao's column.
The Da Biao Column has grown to more than 3 people, but is now being drawn down and compressed by Ding Wei, and is to be reduced to people in order to streamline the military and government.
The veterans who maintain the best combat effectiveness and the surplus troops are dispersed to be integrated with the temporary divisions.
"Brother Da Biao, we are in the same team again. I am in trouble and you have to help me."
Zhang Dabiao is extremely rich, but the richest person under Ding Wei must be Zhou Weiguo. With two armored divisions there, others can only envy him.
But the second richest person was Zhang Dabiao, who took over the weapons and equipment of four or five divisions in Fengtian, including thousands of artillery pieces, hundreds of thousands of artillery shells, and countless ammunition.
He was served with wine and pork head every day, and his face became fat.
He brought Kong Jie in with a smile, and when only the two of them were left, his expression changed.
"Old Kong, I'm not targeting you. The organization is prejudiced against the commander. If he hadn't deployed troops in the Northeast, would you have been able to see the industrial base? It would have been taken away by the Russians long ago."
"They didn't even spare the doors and windows, bullying our compatriots. We had to fight and kill hundreds of people before we could stabilize the situation. The brothers put their heads on the front line and were ready to fight to the death with the Far East Army."
"Hmph, what happened in the end?"
Zhang Dabiao’s resentment comes from the establishment and dissolution of the Manchuria Military Region, which completely disregards the contributions of his comrades in the Northeast region. Isn’t this disheartening?
Commander Ding has both ability and strength, but his suspicion and criticism make his comrades unhappy.
If a capable person comes, we’ll see how to keep the business in the Northeast going.
Kong Jie is an obedient and nice guy.
I will do whatever my leader tells me to do, even if it means losing my life, I will never frown.
The column's weapons and equipment, as well as its expanded personnel, were abandoned without delay, and 5000 people from three regiments were brought to the Northeast to make a living.
Look, why isn’t Li Yunlong here?
It is said that there is a foreign fall in the Northeast, and it is a big deal.
This kid knows everything. It's not reliable for him to go to the Northeast to pick up spoils. It's better for him to stay in southern Hebei honestly. He will never go wrong by following the brigade commander.
"I can't help with the organization's decision, but when Ding Wei asked me to go east, I, Kong Jie, didn't even blink an eye."
"Even if I were asked to blow up a bunker with explosives, I wouldn't frown."
Things have come to this point, Zhang Dabiao definitely can't just ignore it.
A small warehouse was opened up and Kong Jie was equipped with weapons and equipment, including 3000 Type 300 rifles, 80 Type 20 light machine guns, Type heavy machine guns, and mortars.
Supply two basic quantities of artillery shells and bullets, and ask Kong Jie's men to come and carry them.
It is suggested that Kong Jie's troops be stationed in Changtu and Kangping, close to Siping, so that they can be taken care of.
Zhang Dabiao has a stutter, so Kong Jie will definitely not starve.
The three main conditions for expanding the army are people, food and guns. With Kong Jie's ability, the backbone of the three regiments he brought with him can be quickly expanded to more than 10,000 people.
There are light and heavy machine guns and cannons. The only thing missing is heavy weapons.
With Kong Jie's current military strength, even if he is given field artillery, he will not be able to use it. It would be better to use mortars to enhance the firepower first.
At least he can find a backer and ask Zhang Dabiao for some weapons and equipment, but who can the rest of them turn to?
Find a way to get as much as you can out of the Russians.
Not all the Russians were beasts, some of them really wanted to help. In addition, Jin received a large number of Soviet weapons and equipment, and he looked down on the Japanese equipment.
A batch was provided and given to Brother Biao's men.
At least the 24-strong Manchurian People's Autonomous Forces took the lead in setting up a scene, and at the end of October, the newly formed forces had to face Mr. Du's attack.
