Liang Jian: Lao Li, I'm really not a military expert

To quickly bolster the troops' combat effectiveness, the Northwest Shanxi Military Sub-district began extensive training. Commander Lin Zhenhua was busier than ever, busy not only resolving technical issues on the front lines but also discussing troop reorganization with Li Yunlong and his colleagues.

After much discussion, the reorganization of the troops finally came to a conclusion. Zhao Gang, holding the documents in his hand, spoke excitedly, "Comrades, after several discussions, the reorganization of the troops has been preliminarily finalized. Now, let me announce the reorganization plan. If there are any areas that need improvement, please feel free to speak up!"

Facing the expectant gazes of the crowd, Zhao Gang cleared his throat and solemnly read out, "The total strength of the Northwest Shanxi Military Sub-district is 250,000, including 100,000 garrison troops and 150,000 counterattack troops. This does not include the local militia organizations. If they were included, the total strength would directly exceed 320,000!"

"In terms of infantry, there are 7 regiments, each with 2500 men, for a total of 5000 men."

"The armored forces are organized into 15 regiments, each with 1200 men, for a total strength of 18,000 men."

"The artillery force is organized into eight regiments, each with 2000 men, for a total strength of 16,000 men."

"The anti-aircraft artillery force is organized into nine regiments, each with 3000 personnel, for a total of 27,000 personnel."

"The Air Force is organized into 16 regiments, each with 1000 men, for a total strength of 16,000!"

"The transport force is organized into six regiments, each with 3500 men, for a total strength of 21,000 men."

"The remaining troops will be converted into garrison units, with a strength ranging from 1500 to 2200 troops."

As soon as Zhao Gang finished speaking, Lin Zhenhua continued, "Reorganizing a 250,000-man army is no small task. It's difficult to complete it within two weeks. We just need to complete it before mid-February of this year."

"I would like to mention the armored and air force units in particular. Of the 16 air force regiments, seven remain stationary and continue to perform security and transport missions, while the remaining nine flying regiments are fully engaged in the counterattack."

"The 15 armored regiments will serve as the main force of the counterattack, opening up avenues for the subsequent attacks."

"In terms of the armored regiment's deployment, the number of tanks is 60, the number of armored vehicles is 30, and there are also 12 assault guns and eight heavy rocket launchers."

"The current number of personnel will not be used as the final number. We need to undergo preliminary running-in training before final formation."

"At least in my opinion, the number of armored forces is still a bit small. I think it is more appropriate for armored forces to account for 1/3 of the main force of the counterattack."

"The issue of vehicle shortages that everyone is worried about has now been initially resolved. I can guarantee that the supply of vehicles to the armored forces will be completed before the end of the month."

"Lao Li, Lao Ding, Lao Kong, when it comes to the use of armored units, you can't treat them like infantry. From now on, your focus will be to fully ensure that our armored units can form combat effectiveness."

"In addition, I've ordered an increase in the production of logistics vehicles to ensure we can build roads through mountains and bridges over rivers, ensuring the counterattack can be completed within the scheduled time!"
