Chapter 406: Youngster officer

At more than four in the afternoon, the Dachao meeting ended, and other officials and generals left in tandem, while the newly appointed four chiefs of the army and navy were left alone.
"The Imperial Army has been expanded by half. The burden on the shoulders of the Army and Navy is very heavy. The four of you must cooperate sincerely to ensure that there is nothing wrong with the expansion."
"Your Majesty, rest assured, I will do everything in my power to guarantee the completion of the expansion."
The four said in unison.
"Well, yes." Li Mingyuan nodded, and said, "The focus of the large-scale expansion work is on the army. In this expansion work, I hope that the army can learn from previous combat experience. According to the local terrain and climate, Train several troops for special terrain operations. "
"Special Forces Command has deployed a combat unit to perform special tasks in Patagonia, the northern empire's mountain forests, and tropical rain forests. The minister intends to use the three troops as templates to set up a dedicated area for snow and cold regions. , Regular troops in mountainous and hilly areas, tropical rain forest areas. "
Following Li Mingyuan's words, Zhao Yongzeng replied.
"President Zhao has held several positions in the Joint Command of the Special Forces for several years, and is familiar with the combat style and tactics of the Special Forces. I believe that General Zhao should lead the compilation and training of the special terrain forces of the National Defense Forces."
The new Army Secretary Luo Linshan proposed.
"President Zhao's performance during the service of the commander of the Special Forces is very important to him, and it is most appropriate for the commander-in-chief of the special forces of the National Defense Force to be led by President Zhao."
Li Mingyuan agreed with Mount Luolin's suggestion and continued: "Patagonia has an area of ​​more than 600,000 square kilometers, the local climate is cold, and the fishery resources are abundant. US and Canadian fishing boats often cross the border illegally and enter coastal areas for hunting.
In order to protect the empire's control of the locality and prevent Western powers from passing through the Penguin Islands (the Malvinas Islands, after Han occupied Argentina, they claimed to inherit Argentine territory and have sovereignty over the Penguin Islands and southern Antarctica.), The construction industry was blocked (Magellan Strait) ) Straits, Patagonia's garrison strength in Africa needs to be strengthened. "
"From the young people in Patagonia, it is appropriate to select suitable sources and re-establish a brigade-scale snow combat unit."
Zhao Yongzeng asked tentatively.
"The brigade scale is too small. Three units were selected directly from the newly formed infantry division, and they were trained in combat methods suitable for snowy cold regions, mountain hills and tropical rain forests.
After the training was completed, the Snow Division was deployed in Patagonia to defend the southern part of the empire. The Mountain Division and Jungle Division were deployed in the southern border area of ​​the empire and used to fight against Paraguay and the Brazilian Republic. "
"Yes, Your Majesty, the Minister will learn from the training model of special forces and conduct targeted training for three special forces."
"The three special forces' combat missions are different from those of special forces. Training methods and conditions can be partially changed, but the training standards must also be maintained at a normal level, and the training standards of the troops cannot be reduced too much."
"Remember the teachings of Your Majesty."
"Also, although the number of special forces' missions has been reduced in recent years, the management and training of special forces cannot be relaxed because of this. Airships, gliders, new guns, new grenades, mines and other weapons can be equipped with special priority. The army, and in response to the operational requirements of special forces, the Army's Ordnance Division must also cooperate with the special forces joint operations command to develop special-purpose weapons. "
"Special forces are troops created by His Majesty. The requirements and support of the Army for the Special Forces remain the same as before, and there will never be any disappointment in the Special Forces."
"High standards and strict requirements can make a steel-like army!"
In Li Mingyuan's mind, the special forces built by one hand have always had a special status.
"The special forces were formed during the Peruvian Uprising. At that time, the troops were poorly equipped and in an abominable environment. They were in a state of humiliation and more than 100,000 soldiers. They all fought thousands of miles and sacrificed more than 10,000 soldiers. Rio Grande do Sul). "
Recalling 21 years ago, Li Mingyuan's emotions were affected by the Peruvian uprising and the more than 10,000 Chinese workers who died during the Qianli Turn.
"The Han family's grave is Han territory!
Today, more than 10,000 soldiers are loyal and lost thousands of kilometers of migration roads. At the beginning, in order to hurry, in front of each collective burial site, they just hurriedly built a simple grave with stone barriers.
Now, more than 20 years have passed, and the loyal souls of more than 10,000 soldiers have been waiting in the barren land for more than 20 years!
Chi You remembers the original promise, Ma Ta is all Han soil,
Even if the loyalty of the soldiers is difficult to return, we still need to give them a place to rest! "
Speaking of excitement, Li Mingyuan turned his eyes to Zhao Yongzeng and ordered: "Twenty-one years ago, it was the special forces that proved the way for the whole army to turn a thousand miles. But in the future, He also hopes that the special forces At the beginning, along the way to go, the soldiers who were left in the middle of the migration will be buried and buried one by one! "
"Every soldier's burial place has a record, and the minister assured His Majesty that the bones of a soldier will never be left in the wild!"
"Good! Very good! I hope that in my lifetime, I will work with you to complete the task of returning the remains of soldiers and burying them to the land of Han Dynasty, rather than leaving this task to future generations." ...
In the hall of discussion, Li Mingyuan's talks with the four chiefs of the army and navy continued. Outside the palace, there were more than ten young navy officers between the ages of 20 and 30 who generally studied and trained in Western powers. , Then gathered together to discuss the topic in the court.
"I heard that the German naval instructor is about to leave the ship to surrender the command of the warship. Guess who is most likely to serve as two pioneer-class iron armored ships. (Captain of the Navy)? "
"It's hard to say. He Linshu, Yang Jiannian, Chen Binshi, Wang Jinyong, Yang Guangzong, Xu Zhixuan, Lu Wenhui, Chen Jurong ... The Navy Department has selected more than ten reserve candidates, who knows which two will be selected."
"In my opinion, He Linshu, Yang Jiannian, Chen Binshi, and Wang Jin have the best opportunity with four people."
An officer with a major title on his shoulders spoke.
"Why? Is it because they are old? High status?"
"Oh, Brother Wang, don't be dissatisfied. The four of them are the fifth group of overseas students studying abroad, and they are also the first group of seniors with experience in the German Navy fleet. They were selected as pioneers of armored cruisers. Does it fit?"
"It's not necessarily true, Your Majesty has always advocated meritocracy, and not talking about seniority. It can only be the captain of the main battleship of the Imperial Navy without the credit of seniority."
"Brother Chen's words are very good. On the ability and martial arts, Captain Yongxing No. 1 Major Yang Guangrong, No. 5 Captain Xu Zhixuan, Major Chaoyang (Zhenyuan improved version) Operations Staff Major Lu Wenhui, and Liming (Zhenyuan (Improved version) Major Commander Chen Jurong is no worse than the four of them. Why must He Shulin be their captain? "
"Just that" ...
More than a dozen young naval officers split into two factions, each arguing.
"Okay, everyone don't have to argue. Who is the captain of the Pioneer-class armored cruiser one or two? Before the Navy Department is officially appointed, it is useless to argue. In my opinion, we might as well make a bet, Just bet who guessed the captain of the two ships, what do you think? "
"Mr. Chen, you don't know that you are not allowed to gamble in the army, but the gendarmerie found that everyone gathered to gamble, and your boy had a hard time!"
"Chen Shiding, it's okay for your kid to be caught with itchy gambling, don't bother the big guys!" ...
Everyone felt that Chen Shi had come up with a bad idea and ran a run.
"What did the brothers say! I ’m Chen Shiding, who is also a top student who graduated from Charlottenburg University! Where can I take everyone to gamble!"
"Come on, Mr. Chen ~ EbookFREE.me ~ The major subject of Charlottenburg University is metallurgy. Your kid is a navy who entered midway after graduating from Charlottenburg University. No one in the navy knows this!
A young military officer who had a good relationship with Chen Shiding coaxed.
"The navy that entered midway was stunned. We learned it by real talents. As for maritime combat command, we are no worse than your major Sun!"
Chen Shiding retorted aloud, and immediately changed into a smiley, and continued: "Haha, everyone misunderstood. The next meaning is that we bet on who will be the captain of the two pioneer iron armored ships. Those who guessed wrong. If you lose your gambling, please everyone to drink in the drunken house in Jingcheng, what do the brothers think? "
"That's a good suggestion, and I agree,"
"I agree"……
More than a dozen people were major-level officers. Each month, the navy issued a lot of military salaries and subsidies. The money was not bad, and they agreed with Chen Shiding's suggestions. …………
