Chapter 153 Modification
Li Yunlong knocked on the table.
"What are you standing there for? Are you trying to show off? Sit down!"
Zhang Dabiao and Shen Quan looked at each other, then sat upright in the front third of the stool, his back straight, not daring to touch the backrest.
"You two should expand the reconnaissance company into an armored reconnaissance battalion. Ask Chief of Staff Wang to get the equipment. Then you can show your talents in personnel training. Anyway, if I see armored vehicles parked in your place, just wait and see!"
Zhang Dabiao and Shen Quan looked at each other, their mouths grinning to the back of their heads, their eyes shining.
With an armored reconnaissance battalion, we can also satisfy our desire to be armored infantry.
"Also, you should learn armored troop command from Division Commander Dai. Don't treat armored troops as infantry. They are not the same thing! Also, don't always count on the National Defense University for training in various arms. I'm reminding you that if your personnel quality can't keep up, you still won't be able to be reorganized! Especially commanders!"
Zhang Dabiao and Shen Quanteng stood up and stood at attention.
"Yes!"
Since then, Zhang Dabiao not only sent the best soldiers to the National Defense University, but also gave gifts to Lin Shubing and Wang Chengzhu, and gave special training to their soldiers.
He would stick to Dai Anlan every day, and even eat dust on the back of a tank, drinking at least two taels of liquor every day.
In the next meeting room, Wang Meng, Zhao Gang, Dai Anlan and Wang Huaibao were discussing the candidates for each group.
The commander of the tank regiment is naturally Sun Desheng. His command ability and prestige are impeccable, making him the best choice.
The commander of the armored infantry regiment was confirmed to be Wang Huaibao’s deputy commander Sun Yang.
The commander of the mechanized infantry regiment is Wei Dong, the former commander of the first battalion of the third regiment.
The commander of the artillery regiment is Ye Dapao, the former commander of the artillery battalion of the third regiment.
The commander of the armored reconnaissance battalion is Wang Xikui, the company commander of the first company of the reconnaissance battalion directly under the independent column.
The commander of the anti-tank battalion is Wang Dalong, the former commander of the anti-tank company of the artillery battalion.
The battalion commander of the engineering battalion was Zhao Deshun, who was formerly the commander of the engineering company in the artillery battalion.
The commander of the communications battalion is Chen Qianli, the former company commander of the communications company of the third regiment.
The students in the reserve camp are managed personally by Wang Huaibao. After all, these students are the treasures of the independent column, and the subsequent growth and development also depend on these students.
Zhao Gang closed the notebook.
"Okay, it's settled. You will coordinate and allocate the specific personnel and equipment internally, and make sure they are implemented according to the staffing table within three days. Starting from the fourth day, Commander Dai will personally organize the training, and you must be able to form combat effectiveness before May this year!"
Dai Anlan and Wang Huaibao immediately stated that if they could not lead this iron army into a sharp knife, they would just follow their commander's example and take the blame.
Originally, the Third Regiment had 5,000 men, and with the addition of some young people who had fled to Pingshun County, it was entirely possible to reach full strength.
The Third Regiment moved very quickly. This was all good news as they would be promoted one level higher. How could they be slow?
On the fourth day, at the establishment ceremony of the 1st Armored Division of the Independent Column.
Nearly a thousand vehicles of various types and more than 11,000 officers and soldiers were neatly inspected by Li Yunlong.
"Brothers, we didn't plan to hold such a ceremony today, because our Li Yunlong is not a person who plays tricks. But Political Commissar Zhao told me that we should encourage the armored division to start training!"
Li Yunlong looked at the motionless soldier and continued.
"But do the officers and soldiers of our independent column still need encouragement?"
A huge fighting spirit swept over.
"No need! No need! No need!"
"Okay! Then I declare that the Independent Column's First Armored Division is officially established and will begin patrolling!"
At Dai Anlan's command, the soldiers quickly pedaled their bikes and began training.
At this time, Li Yunlong saw that the slightly plump Wang Chengzhu looked a little disappointed, so he called him over.
"Zhu Zi, are you unhappy?"
"Report to the commander, I will obey all the arrangements of the column!"
Li Yunlong hurriedly interrupted Wang Chengzhu's bland words.
"Come on, come on, stop talking to me in official language. Are you feeling uncomfortable now that your deputy head is on an equal footing with you?"
"Kind of!"
"Zhu Zi, have you gone crazy from carrying shells every day? An armored division should indeed have an artillery regiment, but when the independent column has three armored divisions, do we have to get an artillery division?"
When Wang Chengzhu heard this, he thought, isn't this a piece of cake? If he can hold on for a few more months, he will become a division commander.
"Really?"
"When has our Li Yunlong ever lied? But, artillerymen, you have to train well for me. As I said before, the higher the number of formations you train, the higher your rank will be!"
After hearing this, Wang Chengzhu was no longer interested in staying here to eat dirt, so he ran directly to his artillery training ground.
The next day, the military-industrial fortress was bustling with representatives from all walks of life in Pingshun County and representatives of the independent column all gathered around the steel production line.
There are lime kilns, coking workshops, pelletizing workshops, hydrogen production workshops, as well as blast furnaces, converters, and electric arc furnaces.
Zhou Ren and Fan Xian took the visiting representatives to visit various equipment one by one and saw the huge equipment.
The representatives couldn't believe it. They didn't expect that there was such an advanced steel plant in the barren southern Shanxi.
Zhou Ren's eyes were full of pride. This steel plant was more technologically advanced than those on the other side of the ocean, and was far ahead of small domestic iron and steel plants.
"Dear delegates, I, Zhou Ren, can guarantee that this production line will be able to achieve the goal of producing 500,000 tons of various high-quality steels annually!"
Zhao Gang took the lead in applauding.
"I declare that the Pingshun Steel Plant has officially started production!"
Zhou Ren nodded to Fan Xian and Lin Han, and the workers immediately started various machines, and this production line representing hope began to operate.
The significance of this production line is not just to provide raw materials for guns, artillery and ammunition to the independent column.
More importantly, with steel, we have the soil for the development of science and technology!
Li Yunlong happily pulled Zhao Gang outside the factory, and felt a little embarrassed when he saw Zhao Gang, who was so tired that he looked unrecognizable.
"Old Zhao, I've given you the most detailed work, and you've been keeping yourself away. It's hard for you!"
"Is that all I have to say about my hard work? You, Lao Li, have to buy me a drink!"
"Okay, I won't go home until I'm drunk tonight!"
Zhao Gang pointed at Li Yunlong with his finger and gave a meaningful smile.
"Old Li, did you find out that I'm busy these few days and don't have time to drink?"
Li Yunlong is really more wronged than Dou E now. He has been busy with the armored division recently and has no time to take care of the military industrial fortress.
"Old Zhao, swear to God, I didn't know you were busy these days? What's the matter?"
Zhao Gang looked at Li Yunlong who had an innocent face and didn't seem to be pretending, so he decided to let him go.
"After the steel production line was installed, Chief of Staff Wang found us and built an ammunition production line and a firearms production line for us. He said that the sooner we put it into production, the sooner we can achieve self-sufficiency!"
Li Yunlong was also very excited after hearing this. Although Wang Meng could now obtain weapons and equipment through some channels, it was still most reassuring to produce them by himself.
"Okay, that's a problem for you! Have you found the technical director?"
"Well, Professor Zhou introduced a few to me. I think they are all suitable. We expect them to be put into production in two months!"
