Volume 2: Three Pillars Chapter 3: Million Army Plan

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    "Based on our country's land area and total population, I think we need to have a standing army of about 1 million. Therefore, I formulated the "Million Division" plan. The army retains 100 divisions, including 60 infantry divisions.  10 cavalry divisions, 20 armored divisions, and 10 mechanized infantry divisions. The navy wants four fleets, the North Sea Fleet, the Yellow Sea Fleet, the East China Sea Fleet and the South China Sea Fleet. The air force will form eighteen air force groups, which will be our standing army."  Zhang Anle briefly talked about his plan at the military reform seminar, and the details of the plan have been distributed to the representatives.

    "In addition, the military service system of the army also needs to be reformed. I think a military service system in which volunteers and compulsory soldiers coexist can be implemented. In the future, soldiers' service period will be three years. Those who have performed well after the three-year period and are willing to stay in the army can be converted into  Volunteers. The maximum service period for volunteers is 15 years. Officers above the company commander level are not included." Zhang Anle saw everyone flipping through the information and continued after they had digested the previous paragraph.

    "This military service system is indeed effective. The existence of volunteers can ensure the combat effectiveness and cohesion of the troops. The conscripts have also been trained after three years of military career. Once a war occurs, they can directly become soldiers again."  After thinking about it for a moment, Timoshinger understood the benefits of the parallel system of volunteers and compulsory soldiers.

    "Such a system is good, but I'm afraid that people below will object. Nowadays, military commanders in many places regard the army as their personal property. The commander-in-chief's reform will be regarded by them as a power grab. I think if it is implemented, there will be resistance  Not small." Yang Du said the most critical part of this plan in one sentence.

    "Reform will always touch those with vested interests. There is no way around it. In addition, this plan must be planned gradually and cannot be completed overnight. It would be good if these 100 divisions are formed within three years. We can regard this plan as the five-year plan of our army.  We plan to do it every year, and I think five years is enough time to complete this plan." Zhang Anle has already considered what Yang Du said. The current domestic situation makes it impossible for a civil war to break out again, as long as those guys' heads are not broken.  At best, it's just a little trick, nothing serious.

    "The Commander-in-Chief has thought carefully, but 20 armored divisions are a bit too much." Timoshinge first flattered him.  Then asked.

    "Twenty is not too much. According to my original plan, at least 40 armored divisions should be built. Unfortunately, the production of tanks cannot keep up, and the progress of research and development is not fast enough. Today's tanks are already a bit behind, and there are too many equipment.  A waste. Believe me, in future wars, tanks, mobile forts and fortresses, will definitely play a decisive role. This Sino-Soviet war has strengthened my thinking. Of course, these 20 divisions are not all at once  We only have one armored division with a few hundred tanks now. It is impossible to build 20 armored divisions within a few years." Zhang Anle saw Timxinge questioning the number of armored divisions and smiled at him and continued.  .

    "An armored division is easy to understand, but what is a mechanized infantry division? I have never heard of this concept before." Wei Hongjun asked with some confusion.

    "You can simply understand a mechanized infantry division as an infantry division sitting in a car. Their personnel and equipment are pulled by vehicles, so that the troops can respond quickly, attack quickly, and transfer quickly. This is because of the current automobiles in our country  The production is limited, so we have this concept. In fact, all infantry should be mechanized troops." Zhang Anle briefly explained to Wei Hongjun.

    ¡°So that¡¯s it, react quickly and attack quickly, this concept is good.¡± I don¡¯t know if Wei Hongjun understood it, but he nodded and said with a clear understanding.

    "If you understand, just nod." Zhang Qifeng looked at Wei Hongjun with contempt.

    "Only pigs like you don't understand. Mechanized infantry divisions rely on the mobility of cars to achieve quick reactions, quick attacks, and quick transfers. Infantry to achieve the purpose of rapid combat. To put it bluntly, in the art of war, soldiers are valuable and quick. People like you  People like this probably don't understand even after they say it." Wei Hongjun was not a good-tempered person, so he said Zhang Anle's words in a different way, and then realized his contempt for Zhang Qifeng.

    "You!" When Wei Hongjun said this, Zhang Qifeng was speechless and didn't know what to say.

    "That's enough, how unbecoming it is to make noises every time we have a meeting!" Zhang Anle saw that the two of them had finished arguing, so he scolded them calmly.

    Seeing Zhang Anle was dissatisfied.  The two people quickly sat upright, acting like good children.

    Everyone is a little surprised by this situation.  This pair of live treasures always have this conversation every time they have a meeting.

    "In addition to the establishment and military service system, there is also a very important system of military ranks and medals. I think the current three-level and nine-level system is too little. We can add the ranks of marshal and grand marshal above the general level. Marshal rank  Must beAfter becoming a general for 10 years, or after the general dies, he will be given as a posthumous gift.  Generalissimo is a virtual title, and the Commander-in-Chief of the Defense Forces is automatically promoted to the title of Generalissimo.  The rank of generalissimo is automatically revoked after the commander-in-chief leaves office, and can be awarded posthumously after his death.  Medals are awarded to individuals or groups for bravery in combat. Several types of medals can be designed and awarded after a ruling based on meritorious service.  For example, we can establish a Chinese Hero Medal. To obtain this medal, one must have three outstanding outstanding meritorious services.  Or if you get the medal, you can take all kinds of transportation for free, and you will automatically become a local councilor after you retire.  As long as his children are willing, they will have priority in enlisting in the army and being admitted to military academies.  You can enjoy the living allowance provided by the state every year, have certain political privileges, etc.  "Zhang Anle expressed his thoughts on military ranks and medals.

    "The commander-in-chief's idea is very good, but in this case, will the power of this Chinese hero be a bit too great?" It was Timusinger who still raised the question.

    "It does have some meaning in this regard. We want to use this method to tell the people that if you want to gain respect from society, you must contribute to this country. In addition, when evaluating Chinese heroes, we must be particularly cautious and do not let this honor  Being tarnished. Of course, this is just a preliminary idea of ??mine, and the specific implementation methods need to be studied together by everyone." Zhang Anle made no secret of his thoughts. He believed that as long as someone has truly made a significant contribution to the country, the country should have  represented.  As for having some great rights and a lot of privileges, that's okay, as long as the evaluation of Chinese heroes is very strict or even harsh.

    ¡°I very much agree with the commander-in-chief¡¯s idea. Such a medal system is conducive to cultivating the military¡¯s sense of honor and improving the military¡¯s social status.¡± Yang Hucheng quickly expressed his opinion after hearing what Zhang Anle said.

    "That's right. In the past, people in society looked down on us soldiers, and would always say that we were bad soldiers. With these medal systems, warriors who fight bravely on the battlefield can truly be recognized by society.  ." Li Huchen also opened his mouth and said after Yang Hucheng finished speaking.

    "What you said is not entirely correct. In the past, the common people looked down on us soldiers. The main reason was that we soldiers did not treat the common people well. The people's eyes are sharp. Who treats them well and who treats them badly, they are concerned about who treats them well and who treats them badly.  Quite a few." Zhang Anle disagreed with what Li Huchen said. In the past, warlords fought in melee, and soldiers often robbed people of their things. How could the people really like them?

    After what was said, many people present lowered their heads in embarrassment. It seemed that they had done many things to bully the people before.

    "Okay, let's end today's meeting here. Let's go back and take a good look at the plan. If you have any comments or suggestions, please bring them up at the next meeting. Let's adjourn the meeting." After Zhang Anle said that, he stood up and walked out the door.  go.

    As soon as he returned to his office and sat down, Zhang Qifeng knocked on the door and came in.

    Zhang Anle ignored him and instead picked up a document and read it.

    Zhang Qifeng didn¡¯t know what politeness meant. He leaned back on the sofa, stretched and let out a satisfied groan.

    Zhang Anle still ignored him and continued to look at his documents.  Zhang Qifeng didn't say anything, just leaned on the sofa.  At first he felt very comfortable, but gradually he felt something was wrong.  Isn't it a little too rude to do this, so he straightened his body and moved forward.

    Zhang Anle was still looking at his documents, and then Zhang Qifeng felt that the commander-in-chief was very dissatisfied with him.  He quickly moved himself forward, sat half-assed on the sofa, straightened his back, put his hands on his thighs, a very standard military sitting posture.

    "Tell me, why are you here with me?" After a few minutes, Zhang Anle felt that the boy's punishment was almost over, so he closed the document and asked Mansi in an orderly manner.

    "The main reason I came here is to confirm with the commander-in-chief that our division will also be changed into an armored division, right?" Zhang Qifeng was still thinking about his unit becoming an armored force.

    "The direct division became an armored division? Who said that? Why didn't I know?" Zhang Anle heard what Zhang Qifeng said and couldn't help but want to hit him and said.

    "Commander-in-Chief, you have to admit it. You promised me personally when we were in the Soviet Union." Zhang Qifeng thought Zhang Anle should admit it, so he said anxiously.

    "Haha, do you think I am someone who breaks my word?" Zhang Anle thought he was almost amused and laughed.

    "So you were just teasing me, so I feel relieved." Seeing Zhang Anle say this, Zhang Qifeng knew that he was too nervous and said a little embarrassed.

    "You need to change your short temper, and don't quarrel with Wei Hongjun every time you have a meeting. If you really don't want to talk to him, just don't talk. Changing the direct division to the armored division will not change. You should go back"Come on.  "Zhang Anle seized this opportunity and did not forget to educate Zhang Qifeng again.

    "This is the Commander-in-Chief, don't worry, I will definitely build the direct division into the best armored division!" Seeing that his goal was achieved, Zhang Qifeng stood up and saluted, promising.
