Rebirth of the National Marshal

Chapter 111 Army Expansion

"Haha, you don't have to worry, I was just joking. If someone can really bring him here, he will be considered a veteran figure in the party and the country. Now I won't say much. Starting tomorrow, I plan to select the talents I need from the hundreds of thousands of troops in the security corps." Seeing Young Master Mao's deflated face, Sun Liren didn't say much.

In fact, Sun Liren had no bad intentions. He just wanted to give our young master Mao a reminder. It is better not to say such things in the future. If you say this to an unintentional person, it will be just a joke. But if you say it to some people, it will be used as evidence to attack you, and it will be ironclad evidence, as if you can call the shots in the party-state. In addition, now that you have made more and more contributions, it is not impossible that you will become too meritorious and shock the ruler. If this causes dissatisfaction from President Chiang, Mao Yuanshan's good days will be over.

It seems that this guy is different from what is described in history textbooks of later generations. He is not as old-fashioned as the legend says. On the contrary, he has a bit of humor.

The news that the Chahar government was going to form an armored regiment was somehow spread, and some reporters took photos of the armored regiment's training. Fortunately, they were intercepted by the Chahar intelligence department. Otherwise, these photos would have really leaked out, and Mao Yuanshan's name would have really spread throughout the country.

In fact, Mao Yuanshan is not afraid now. We already have our own power and hundreds of thousands of troops. What is there to be afraid of? The most important thing is that we are afraid of the Americans. If the Americans see this photo, they will definitely know that it is plagiarized from them. However, their weapons are still on the design drawings, while we have already formed an army. What will they think?

Chahar's intelligence department is now developing well, and Monkey has naturally become the Minister of Intelligence.

This guy must have been more interested in this before. In the past two months, he has captured dozens of Japanese spies. Moreover, he also learned some interrogation techniques from the Green Gang. Generally speaking, the intelligence department is currently developing in a healthy and orderly manner.

There are also some clone soldiers who are very good at espionage. Although Monkey is an old man who has followed him since he started, he is still not as trustworthy as the clone soldiers, so the deputy director of the intelligence department is a clone soldier.

In addition, there is the current air force.

After experiencing several wars, Mao Yuanshan paid more attention to the development of the air force. Just like the encirclement and annihilation of the 70th Mixed Brigade, he directly shot down the Japanese planes. He was like a toothless tiger. If the Japanese air force continued to support them, it would be impossible to annihilate them completely.

Moreover, if the Japanese devils had dropped all their bombs on the security regiment's positions, the casualties of the security regiment would definitely not have been what they are now. The battalion in Zhanggu Town might have been reduced to ashes.

Therefore, it is imperative to fully develop the air force.

Now his military rank is brigade commander.

In addition to having a large number of clone soldiers, the amount of oil exchanged is also rising sharply. Originally, 300 tons could be exchanged every day, and now 3500 tons can be exchanged every day. According to Mao Yuanshan's idea, it should be 3000 tons per day. I don't know why there are 500 tons more.

10 tons of gasoline per month is definitely enough.

You have to know that during World War II, the Germans could only produce four to five million tons of coal-to-oil every year.

At present, the Chahar army's use of fuel is still much less than that of the Germans.

During this period, Gaozhihang also established its first aviation school to train pilots.

Although there are only 150 trainees now, it is a good start after all. In half a year they will become qualified pilots, and in a year they will be able to fly fighter jets into the sky and realize their dreams.

Now, with the clone soldiers and real pilots, Mao Yuanshan has thousands of people who can fly planes into the sky. However, not everyone among these thousands of people can fly a fighter jet. Only 30% can fly fighter jets, and the rest are all used to fly bombers or transport planes.

Because no other aircraft models have been unlocked yet, they can only fly the BF109.

Mao Yuanshan formed two flying regiments this time.

Each regiment has two flying groups, each group has three flying squadrons, each flying squadron has three flying squadrons, and each flying squadron has six aircraft.

There are more than 600 aircraft in total, and more than a dozen military or simple military airports have been built in various parts of Chahar region.

Of course, all of this was done in secret. In this era, there were no spy satellites or anything like that. If one wanted to collect intelligence, it would all depend on manpower. As long as people couldn't infiltrate, the information couldn't spread. The Japanese didn't know that there was such a powerful air force in the Chahar area. If they knew there was such a powerful air force, then the combat plan they were formulating would also be modified on a large scale.

Gao Zhihang also served as the aviation commander of the Chahar region.

Leng Feng is the commander of the 1st Aviation Regiment.

As the head of the Second Aviation Regiment, Zhao Shan was a rare female pilot in that era, and even rarer in this era. However, Zhao Shan became the head of the Second Aviation Regiment entirely by her own ability, and it had nothing to do with her father, who was a veteran of the party and the country.

At the beginning, many pilots were very unhappy about a woman being their regiment commander, because in their opinion, if she didn't have a father who was a party and state veteran, how could she become the commander of an aviation regiment? But later, as they got along with each other, they found that this regiment commander was really capable. Although she was a woman, no one in the entire regiment was better than her in various aerial combat techniques, and she also had an innate advantage over others in command and arrangements, as if this regiment commander was tailor-made for her.

Because the security corps cannot be upgraded now, Mao Yuanshan can only divide the 30 security corps into three combat groups.

The Eastern Combat Group was also the most important combat group, with 11 security regiments under it, mainly responsible for defending against attacks from the Kwantung Army and the North China Garrison Army.

The Northern Combat Military Region is a secondary combat group, with four security regiments under it, which are mainly responsible for defending against threats from Mongolia and the Soviet Union in the north.

The military district in the south is the smallest combat group with three security regiments under it.

The remaining 12 security regiments serve as the reserve corps.

Except for the Reserve Corps, the other security regiments basically have initial combat capabilities, and more than half of the troops in the army have come from the battlefield, so their combat effectiveness is much stronger than that of the Reserve Corps.

Each of the three combat aircraft groups is equipped with two artillery regiments to achieve absolute suppression in terms of heavy firepower. If there were not too few qualified soldiers now, Young Master Mao would even want to equip the three combat aircraft groups with three armored regiments.

In terms of people's livelihood, because of the implementation of agricultural tax reduction and exemption, farmers in the country began a year of hard work, and this year was relatively good in weather and harvest. In autumn, they will usher in the harvest season.

Regarding the issue of agricultural tax, the Ministry of Finance of the central government also issued an official document stating that Chahar's abolition of agricultural tax did not meet legal requirements and asked them to withdraw the order. However, Mao Yuanshan later told the central government that if the agricultural tax was to be restored, all 30 security groups would have to be supported by the state.

The central government cannot afford the sudden addition of 50 troops. You know, the central government only pays 30 oceans to the 40 security groups now, and no one cares about the extra money.

Because of this issue, Minister Song from the Ministry of Finance was reprimanded by the principal again. He was told not to embarrass the soldiers fighting on the front line because of such trivial matters. Besides, Chahar is a poor province with not much land and agricultural tax. It is obvious that you are trying to put them on the spot.

Other bigwigs in the party and the country also felt contempt for Minister Song's move.

The Japanese saw that Chahar was a tough nut to crack, so they left it alone for the time being, but they were not so easy to deal with other party-state troops.

History still deviated from its original direction. The fighting in the Yangtze River Delta region had not yet started, while the fighting in North China had already started. The Japanese gathered the strength of three divisions and began to invade the Central Plains region in a large-scale manner.

The troops of these three divisions seemed to have suddenly become powerful. They were useless when facing the Chahar army, but they were like lions out of the cage when facing other Chinese armies.

In half a month, the three divisions occupied the territory of about a province and defeated more than 20 divisions of the central army and local army.

Mao Yuanshan felt helpless when he saw this battle report. He originally thought that since he had sold so many weapons and ammunition, the combat effectiveness of these troops would be stronger. He did not expect that it would still be like this in the end. What about these warlords who laughed at the Jinsui Army at the beginning? Now they are not as good as the Jinsui Army.

How many of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army retreated after seeing the Japanese and finding they were unable to defeat them? You guys started retreating without even seeing the Japanese, and even robbed the civilians as you left. It's really hard to say anything about such an army.

Fortunately, because the Japanese devils' logistics did not keep up, they stopped after occupying these territories and implemented their white terror rule in the occupied areas.
