Warlord: Red Alert Base, I challenge the whole world alone

Chapter 9 Pre-War Meeting, Formation of Militia

These days, there has been such a big commotion in Chishan County that not only Fu Changqing and Yuan Shicheng have noticed it.

Han Yi, who lives next to Chishan, is also very concerned and is very wary of Jiang Hua who suddenly appears.

Among the many warlords in Beire Province, Wang Jiahui's strength is definitely among the top three.

Of course, in his opinion, the second is himself, and the first is Tang Yuanhai, who is the governor of Beire Province and occupies the southern part of Chengbei City.

Wang Jiahui's troops of several thousand were wiped out by Jiang Hua before they could even last a day.

This also shows that the strength displayed by Jiang Hua is extraordinary.

Now that he has swallowed up Wang Jiahui, it is very likely that he will take action against him next.

So he has been deploying troops and building defensive fortifications these days.

He can't be eliminated in a confused manner like Wang Jiahui.

Han Yi's headquarters was set up in Dongsui County, which is also a major transportation route connecting the three northern provinces of Andong Province, and a transportation hub in the northern part of Beire Province. There is also a railway branch line passing through it.

"Is there still no movement from Chishan and Jianping?"

Han Yi has been very concerned and sensitive about Jiang Hua's actions recently, so he asks about it every day.

The adjutant in question shook his head and said, "Commander, we haven't detected any movement at the moment."

Han Yi nodded and then asked, "What about the defenses in Guyu and Dongsui? How are they progressing?"

Guyu and Dongsui counties are located in a plain area, which is a terrain that is easy to attack but difficult to defend.

Therefore, the defensive fortifications of Guyu and Dongsui were built with their respective city walls as the core.

"We have already mobilized over 50,000 civilians in the two counties to build fortifications.

A large number of bunkers and secret bunkers were built both inside and outside the city.

We have also stockpiled some ammunition and food. At this rate, we should be able to complete the task within three days.

And you asked me to contact several other forces and bandits, and they all agreed.

If Jiang Hua dares to attack, they will not sit idly by.

After all, they still understand the principle of "lips and teeth are cold."

Hearing this, Han Yi nodded in satisfaction and snorted, "If this Jiang guy dares to cause trouble for me, I will definitely teach him a lesson."

A pre-war meeting is currently being held at the First Division Command Headquarters in Chishan County.

The theme of this pre-war meeting was to recover the entire northern part of Beire Province north of Chishan County.

The meeting was chaired by the commander of the First Division, Zhuang Hua.

All cadres at the battalion and regiment level and above participated in the meeting.

The huge high-precision military map hanging on the wall also clearly depicts the situation of various forces.

"Please look at the map. To the south of Jianping County is Yingzhou County, which is occupied by a warlord nicknamed Hong Dapao.

This person is not a cause for concern. The combat effectiveness of the troops was okay in the early years, but they have been severely harmed by opium in recent years. Most of the more than 2,000 soldiers are double-gun soldiers, one with a rifle and the other with a pipe.

There is also Yulong County, which is adjacent to Yingzhou. This place is occupied by another warlord, who is called the Slant-Eyed General and has about 3,000 troops under his command.

Because they have a common enemy, Han Yi, the two have a close relationship.

If one side is attacked, the other side will definitely send troops.

Yingzhou and Yulong County were handed over to the Third Regiment, which was equipped with a medium tank battalion, a cannon battalion, and a howitzer battalion.

any questions? "

After saying that, Zhuang Hua looked at the third regiment commander Guo Mingxuan.

Guo Mingxuan adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses and said slowly, "No problem, I guarantee to complete the task."

Zhuang Hua nodded and continued pointing at the map, "To the west and north of Chishan, it borders Xilin County and Tianshan County. These two places are also the two counties with the most complicated situations in Beire Province.

Because it is located in the Daxingling Mountains, the terrain is complex and varied.

The warlords of the two counties only occupied the county towns, so they were not a big concern. The more troublesome things were the various bandits entrenched in the mountains.

They are not large in scale, but they are familiar with the mountain terrain, so it is not easy to completely wipe them out.

Therefore, these two counties will be handed over to the Second Regiment, which is more adept at mountain warfare, and I will not provide you with armored units.

I'll give you a cannon battalion and two howitzer battalions."

The Second Regiment Commander, Gu Zhengyang, nodded and said, "The Second Regiment guarantees to complete the mission, but I still want another unit."

Zhuang Hua looked at Gu Zhengyang and asked, "Which unit do you want?"

"Anti-aircraft artillery battalion!"

The anti-aircraft artillery battalion is also a division-level unit of the 1st Division, providing the troops with field air defense capabilities.

The battalion has three anti-aircraft artillery companies, two of which are equipped with 3mm twin-barreled anti-aircraft guns, with four guns in each company, for a total of eight guns.

Another company is equipped with 76 4mm single-barrel anti-aircraft guns.

The entire battalion is equipped with a total of 12 anti-aircraft guns.

There is definitely no need for air defense against bandits.

And it was obvious that Gu Zhengyang did not specifically request this unit for air defense.

You have to know that if the anti-aircraft gun is placed horizontally and used against infantry, its firepower is quite brutal.

Zhuang Hua thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay, I'll give you the anti-aircraft artillery battalion."

Anyway, this anti-aircraft artillery battalion will not be needed in the next battle, so it doesn’t matter if it is transferred to the Second Regiment.

The remaining warlord is Han Yi, the main character.

"Han Yi has occupied Guyu and Dongsui counties, which are the two best-developed and most populous counties in the northern part of Beire Province.

Moreover, he has the support of the Saibei Army behind him, and his weapons and equipment are relatively sophisticated. The weapons he uses are all standard weapons made by the Saibei Army.

And according to the report from the reconnaissance team, Han Yi is now strengthening the defensive fortifications of the two county towns.

Apparently, he also noticed our intention.

Therefore, the two counties of Guyu and Dongsui will be handed over to the First Regiment, and the remaining artillery and tank units will all be handed over to your First Regiment's command. Is there any problem?"

The new commander of the 1st Regiment is the former chief of staff of the regiment, Zhao Qi, who is also the partner of the current division chief of staff, Jiang Tianming.

"We don't have any problems as a group."

In Zhao Qi's opinion, Han Yi is an easy person to defeat.

The reason is very simple, there is no strategic location to defend.

No matter how strong their city defenses are, how long can they withstand their 122mm cannons and 152mm heavy howitzers?

"You all understand the mission clearly. The attack will officially begin in three days."

"Yes!"

All the officers stood up and said in unison.

After the operational meeting, Zhuang Hua came to Jiang Hua's office.

When Jiang Hua saw Zhuang Hua coming, he handed him a draft in his hand.

"Zhuang Hua, you will be responsible for forming the militia.

As for the battle on the front lines, I'm afraid you don't need to go out yet, just let Jiang Tianming keep an eye on it."

The establishment of local militia forces is also a very important next step.

This is particularly crucial for them to decentralize power to local levels.

You must know that since ancient times, imperial power has not extended to the countryside, and this is still the case in this era of warlords fighting each other.

All local decision-making power was in the hands of the landlords and gentry.

Whether the government’s policies can be implemented locally depends on the attitudes of these landlords and gentry.

This is also one of the main reasons why Jiang Hua took action against these landlords and gentry.

If we want to develop industry and economy, we must liberate productivity, and at the same time, power must be decentralized to the grassroots level in rural areas.

Only in this way can all groups work together to develop the local area.

However, it is not so easy to set up grassroots organizations.

It must be maintained with guns.

It's impossible for him to split up the First Division and distribute it to different places.

What's more, the First Division is not local and does not understand the local situation, which may easily lead to conflicts.

Therefore, the militia, a seemingly insignificant organization, becomes particularly important.

Next, he wanted to take over the land from the landlords and gentry, make all the land nationalized, and then distribute the land to the farmers. This was actually land reform.

Then these lowest-level farmers will be the biggest beneficiaries of this policy.

Therefore, they are definitely supportive of the formation of militia forces.

The militia was selected from among these people.

They are familiar with the local situation and have vested interests, so they will definitely fight to protect their own interests.

By that time, whoever dares to stand up and oppose it will depend on whether the guns in their hands will agree.

Another very important point is that these militia forces are also the main force in maintaining local public security.

After all, this is not a peaceful era.

Moreover, when these militias grow up in the future, they will become one of the reserve forces of the Red Alert Corps.

If you need to expand your troops urgently, they are the best source of troops.

Zhuang Hua also understood the importance of this matter. He nodded solemnly and said, "Yes, I will go back and hold a meeting to select personnel to go to the grassroots and form a militia.

But Commander, you have to take care of the weapons and funding for me."

"These are just minor obstacles!"

Jiang Hua waved his hand with great ambition.

The militia’s weapons and equipment can be of inferior quality, and they don’t need heavy weapons, so they are very cheap.

Basically, there are rifles, submachine guns, light and heavy machine guns, and mortars.

As for rifles, Jiang Hua will prefer the Soviet light weapons system in the future.

After all, we have the legendary AK rifle, so the future light weapons system will definitely move closer to the Soviet system.

Currently only the US version has unlocked the semi-automatic rifle.

Therefore, the light weapons equipped to these militias are directly based on the Soviet system.

For example, the Moshing Gunner rifle, DP light machine gun, Maxim heavy machine gun, and American 60mm and 81mm mortars.

After Zhuang Hua left, Jiang Hua rubbed his swollen head.

There's just too much going on these days.

These cyborgs from the Red Alert barracks are absolutely loyal, but a little too loyal.

All matters, big or small, must be consulted with him as the commander.

Moreover, these soldiers are really not a good choice to govern the place.

Now he urgently needs a political talent to help him share the pressure.

But there are only military talents in the Red Alert base.

There's no point thinking about this now.

In addition to the militia, another department must be established as soon as possible.

This department is the intelligence department.
