"Brother" Jiang Jingguo's voice was choked. "Okay, okay, I know your difficulties and I won't make you feel embarrassed." Wu Ming nodded towards Jiang Jingguo: "Jianfeng, have you arranged your whereabouts?" "Commissioner and Security Commander of the Gannan Administrative Office "Jiang Jingguo said truthfully. "Gannan? I'm quite familiar with that place I spent a few months in southern Gansu during the campaign against Guangdong and Guangxi two years ago. The Gannan Administrative Office has jurisdiction over eleven counties including Ganxian, Nankang, and Xinfeng. It is larger than Quzhou. Perennial wars have devastated people's livelihood there, but it is rich in products and the output of tungsten ore ranks first in the country. It has great development potential." "In the past two years, Maoliangwu Chamber of Commerce and Gandong Chamber of Commerce have Material purchasing points have been set up in various counties and towns in southern Jiangxi. Agricultural and sideline products, mountain products, and ores such as tungsten, iron, and copper produced in southern Jiangxi continue to flow into Maoliangwu. Xiandi will serve as a parent officer there. The prospects for our cooperation in the future are still good. " "In addition, as the Sino-Japanese war intensifies, the fertile lands in northern and central Jiangxi will definitely be targeted by the Japanese. It is only a matter of time before Jiujiang and the surrounding areas of Nanchang fall. By then, the status of southern Jiangxi, surrounded by mountains, will suddenly increase However, just because Gannan is located in a remote area, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and there are many local tyrants and evil gentry who have formed a stronghold to protect themselves. If you want to calmly control the overall situation, you must have enough strength. " "Jianfeng, if you need help. , you can call me and I will send someone to support you. In addition, my good friend Liu Rulin and my sworn brother Tian Zhenggang serve as the major general director and chief of staff of the Jiangxi Security Department respectively. If you have anything, you can contact them and they will definitely help. " Having said that, Wu Ming briefly introduced the situation of Liu Rulin and Tian Zhenggang to Jiang Jingguo. "Thank you for your concern, brother," Jiang Jingguo said gratefully. "The folk customs in southern Gansu have been strong since ancient times. In addition, due to years of war, there are many guns among the people, and the security situation is not ideal." Wu Ming thought for a while and said: "Jianfeng, when you take office, I will give you a gift." During my time working in the Second Army, I received a lot of care from my brother, and my family is very happy here." Jiang Jingguo grabbed Wu Ming's hand and said with emotion: "When I first came here, I was unknown. It¡¯s all thanks to my brother¡¯s promotion that I have the space to display my talents. Now, more than half a year later, I have become a major general in the national army, and I have laid a good foundation for my career in politics. Brother, I cannot thank you enough for your kindness. If you have any difficulties, please feel free to ask Jianfeng." "No matter where you say thank you, it should be me, Wu Ming, who wants to thank you. If it weren't for Jianfeng's excellent organizational skills and various propaganda methods, how could our New Second Army have done it? How can we get so many aspiring young people to enthusiastically sign up to join the army? In the past month, there have been more than 500 overseas Chinese from Nanyang alone. They are knowledgeable and educated, and they have greatly made up for our lack of talents. To be honest, I can't bear to see you leave. Go ahead." Wu Ming shook his head and sighed: "Phoenix Radio Station does not have the leadership of the wise brother, and I don't know what I will do in the future." "Brother, you are overestimating me. If you hadn't delegated power to me, even if I have the ability, it would be useless. Ah. Besides, you can meet all the manpower, material resources and financial resources required for publicity. Even if it is done by someone else, as long as the personnel, equipment and funds are fully guaranteed, it can be done as well as mine. " Chiang Ching-kuo said gratefully. Looking at Wu Ming: "I can only say that the military commander has ideas and courage, has the courage to do his job and can fully trust his subordinates. As the saying goes, a soldier will die for his confidant. If you trust me so much, I will be ashamed if I don't achieve some results." You respect the military seat." While the two were talking, Mao Fumei and Jiang Fangliang walked out of the house with their children. Zhou Zhongyuan, the captain of the bodyguard, saw that it was getting late and asked Jiang Jingguo to leave in order to get to Quzhou Railway Station as soon as possible. "Brother, farewell." Jiang Jingguo cupped his hands to Wu Ming, nodded to Long Shaogang, and got into the car with his family. Chiang Ching-kuo's driver Mao Ningshao slowly started the car and drove away following two troop carriers and a truck carrying luggage and furniture. Looking at the car driving away, Wu Ming sighed lightly, turned to Long Shaogang and asked: "Old Long, what do you think of Lao Jiang and Xiao Jiang?" "This I didn't do any research on this in the past, but after this After thinking about it for a few days, I came to some vague opinions: Chairman Chiang is the supreme leader of the party and state, and he always pays attention to his appearance as the number one leader, and cares about his status and influence in everything he does. Whether he is running the army or engaging in politics, Chairman Chiang likes him. He plays a balance game and always uses political means to solve military problems, so his attitude is unpredictable." Long Shaogang continued: "Chiang Ching-kuo is different. His more than ten years of experience in the Soviet Union, especially the thrilling period of the purge of counterrevolutionaries, has made him cultivate He has become a cautious character, and at the same time, civilian life is deeply imprinted in his bones. He has the political outlook of a person from the middle and lower levels of society, and can often reflect on himself. I think that as long as Chairman Chiang maintains his current identity and status, it is very likely that Ching Kuo will be successful in the future. Taking over" Wu Ming sighed slightly: "Chiang Ching-kuo is indeed good, but it is a pity that he must now rely on his elders unconditionally.Chiang Kai-shek cannot express his voice, otherwise our life will be much easier nowI think Chiang Kai-shek loves and hates us now." "I think he hates and fears us." Long Shaogang joked with a smile, and then Said: "Okay, let's not talk about the father and son. Military seat, how will our training proceed next? Although our three main divisions will soon be full due to the existence of the Maoliangwu Militia, the training of the reserve vigilantes and militia cannot be relaxed at all. " "Secondly, we have gathered a large number of defeated troops with combat experience. Although these veterans have seen blood and have certain combat effectiveness, many of them have the bad habits of the previous troops, and some even rely on their own skills to disobey orders. Also, with the expansion of the army, there is still a big gap in technical arms and outstanding officers. Finally, there are some problems with logistics support in Dongning. The new Second Division has not been replaced yet. " "The reason why the New Second Division has not been replaced , That¡¯s waiting for my order.¡± Wu Ming explained patiently: ¡°The newly formed army divisions in Japan will soon be put into the Chinese battlefield, and we don¡¯t have much time left In order to improve the training quality of the troops, I think it is necessary to implement a training system of rewards and punishments for the main groups below. " "A training system with rewards and punishments? "Long Shaogang was a little confused. "Yes" Wu Ming walked side by side with Long Shaogang, introducing his ideas to him as they walked. "It's actually quite simple to say, each main regiment of the new second division and the new third division Based on the training syllabus issued by the military headquarters, they will conduct additional training according to the actual situation of their own troops. Every once in a while, the military headquarters will organize internal confrontations. The winning regiment will have priority in many aspects such as weapons and equipment, logistics supplies, and soldier selection. Those failed regiments can only pick up the leftovers of others. If a certain main regiment falls behind several times in a row, the entire regiment will be transferred to the independent division and separated from the main line position. Correspondingly, the independent division. The regiment with the most wins in each assessment will be promoted to the main regiment, and the regiment at the bottom will be transferred to the militia group. Wu Ming means that all regiments in the new second army will start a round of training competition. "Ah, this will be a great stimulus. It¡¯s a good idea to increase the enthusiasm of the main teams in training.¡± Long Shaogang blurted out, but then he thought about it and frowned again: ¡°But, is it too cruel to do it this way? " "We are soldiers, and it is normal to bleed and sweat. Now the training is more cruel. When the soldiers go to the battlefield in the future, many fewer people will die." Wu Ming looked solemn: "Of course, we must do a good job in the ideological work of commanders at all levels so that the soldiers have the courage to move forward without fear of hardship or fatigue. Enterprising spirit. We will discuss how to implement it specifically after returning to the military headquarters" Wu Ming and Long Shaogang returned to Fenghuang Mountain Base. The welcome banquet of the New Third Division has ended. Seeing that several division commanders are there, Wu Ming immediately decided A meeting of officers above the division level was held. At the beginning of the meeting, Wu Ming expressed his thoughts and immediately received unanimous approval from everyone. Luo Yuming, the commander of the new second division, clapped his hands and said loudly: "I believe in the quality of our officers and soldiers. If the commanders of various departments do not supervise, they will consciously strengthen military training. I think those soldiers who perform well can be rewarded in terms of material, military rank, honor, etc. " "Yes, that's exactly what it should be. "Wu Ming nodded in agreement. "Military seat, I'm a little worried." Chief of Staff Zhang Dongning expressed a different opinion and said: "Would it be too harsh to introduce such competition to the entire army? Also, will such fierce competition lead to serious antagonism between the officers and soldiers of our various regiments, which is not conducive to unity? " "If they can't stand even a little competition, how can they expect them to fight against the little devils on the battlefield? Yang Sixian, commander of the New Third Division, curled his lips and said: "Chief of Staff, I think you worry too much. Those soldiers who are not adapted to competition should be eliminated." The military commander has long said that war has cruel laws. Win with everything and defeat with nothing. I think the introduction of a competition mechanism can greatly enhance the centripetal force of various ministries. Of course, we can also carry out assistance activities within each regiment. An atmosphere of mutual assistance has been formed at the battalion and company level. Perhaps this can reverse the confrontation that the chief of staff is worried about." Yin Dizhong, the commander of the independent division, his eyes lit up: "Yes, we can organize ourselves to provide necessary help to those backward soldiers so that they can help them as soon as possible. Adapting to the training intensity of the troops. Of course, we must resolutely persuade those officers and soldiers who cannot keep up with the training progress no matter how hard they try, and we cannot let a mouse drop ruin the pot of soup. " Wu Ming nodded repeatedly. The three cobblers supported Zhuge Liang. After everyone's discussion, the new training plan was much improved. "Your suggestions are very good." Wu Ming praised, and then his expression became serious: "The war is far away from us. It is not far away. In order to ensure the combat effectiveness of our troops, we must introduce a healthy competition mechanism. This kind of competition is not about giving upThe regiment is fighting life and death, but it makes them feel the urgency of the war and become more motivated during training. " Wu Ming looked at several division commanders: "Due to competition, there will definitely be grievances and even antagonisms between the various regiments, but I believe that you will properly handle the internal relations, don't you think? " "Yes" Luo Yuming, Yang Sixian, and Yin Dizhong answered in unison. Less than half an hour after the meeting, each division gave detailed explanations to each brigade and regiment, requiring each regiment to formulate new training plans based on the training outline issued by the military headquarters. A vigorous military training began.
