    Liu Yufen's idea was obviously to proceed step by step. The first was expanded to two, the second was expanded to four, the fourth was expanded to eight, and the eight was expanded to sixteen. The three-month recruit training cycle was almost the same as the practice after recruits joined the army in the previous life. As for the four extra brigades,  , can fully serve as a supplementary brigade.

    Of course, when Wang Geng came back from the United States, he had always wanted to form an armored brigade and an air force. By then, there would definitely be not enough people, not too many.

    The affairs of the staff headquarters, teaching group and training were thus initially settled. Regarding the personnel arrangements for the officers of the 16th mixed brigade who were transferred to the teaching group, Wang Geng¡¯s approach was as follows:

    First, for each main regiment, one regiment leader and one regiment attach¨¦, three battalion commanders and battalion attaches, 12 company commanders and company attaches, and 36 platoon leaders and platoon attaches were all transferred to the teaching regiment.  Each is used at a lower level.

    Second, the cadres of the regiment, battalion and company are temporarily replaced by the cadres of the brigade, regiment, battalion and company, while the platoon leader is taken turns by the squad leaders. As for the squad leader, it is taken turns by all the soldiers in the squad!

    The advantage of this plan is that officers from the outside are not assigned to the 16th Composite Brigade to seize power, and the original brigade, regiment, and battalion cadres have more experience and opportunities to lead troops. The squad leaders take turns serving as platoon leaders, and the soldiers take turns serving as squad leaders.  The combat effectiveness of the first platoon is not compromised.

    Training new recruits, especially those early basic courses, is actually mainly the job of the non-commissioned officers. The squad leaders can complete their own jobs very well. What's more, the 16th Mixed Brigade has many veterans and the army has a relatively good training foundation in all aspects.  So as long as the officers' ideological work is done properly, this is a quite efficient plan.

    Because Liu Yufen¡¯s suggestions were accepted, Wang Geng simply assigned him and Shi Jingting to be partners in charge of the teaching team. Shi Jingting was the executive director of the teaching team, and he became the chief of staff of the teaching team. Anyway, this guy has enough qualifications!  He has always been the instructor of the Model Company. In fact, if Wang Geng, the butterfly, had not flapped his wings, Liu Yufen would have continued to serve as Lao Feng's brigade chief of staff after Qiu Bin and Zhang Shusheng!

    "Colonel Xue, you have to shoulder the responsibility of the Military Justice Department of the participating army. We must not relax our discipline when there are more troops. I appoint you as the Director of the Military Law Department and the Commander of the Military Police Regiment. Of course, there are not that many people in the Military Police Regiment now.  How about dialing a company for you?"

    Wang Geng has not forgotten Xue Dubi behind Shi Jingting. This guy is only 27 years old this year, but he graduated from Shanxi Political and Law School. He also served as the director of Linfen Local Trial Hall. Wang Geng intends to make the best use of people. Who will be the short-term military justice director?  In your eyes, if you bring him a military police regiment, the weight will be different!

    "Thank you, Supervisor, for your cultivation!"  It has always been good, but I didn't expect that the young supervisor Wang Geng would think so highly of me. The young and veteran military judge's eyes were a little red!

    "Chief of Staff Qiu, I think you won't be going to the teaching group for the time being. The 16th Mixed Brigade has been depleted of all officers. You, the Chief of Staff, have to look after this stall for me, otherwise I won't worry." Wang Geng turned around casually and said  Said to Qiu Bin.

    Qiu Bin was stunned. Previously, Liu Yufen was appointed as the chief of staff of the teaching group. This guy felt a little uncomfortable. Obviously, if he went to teach the group, he would be in the position of a group affiliate or deputy chief of staff. Now Wang Geng said this,  He was worried about gains and losses. Could it be that I, Qiu, had offended Wang Geng in some way?

    Wang Geng seemed to see Qiu Bin's surprise and said with a smile, "Chief of Staff, please don't get me wrong. You should carry the burden of the 16th Mixed Brigade for me first. I will definitely let you go to teach the group in the future. If you don't go,  He¡¯s also an instructor!¡±

    Hearing this, Qiu Bin felt a stone fall in his heart. It was obvious that Wang Geng really wanted to take on the burden of the 16th Hungry Brigade by himself. Looking at Wang Geng's intentions, he might not do so in the future.  .  .  It is also unknown that he, the nominal brigade commander's deputy, directly mentioned the brigade commander of the 16th mixed brigade.

    "Supervisor, what should we do about recruiting troops? Just recruit a brigade first as Lan Jiang said, which will require at least 8,000 people. Eight thousand people is not a small number. It will take a lot of effort to recruit!" Li Mingzhong thought of it!  As the leader of the regiment, I will go to the teaching regiment to serve as the battalion commander one day. I am both looking forward to it and anxious. I wish I could recruit all the troops right away!

    "I know that Mr. Feng used to recruit soldiers for the 16th Mixed Brigade. He only liked to recruit farmers and student soldiers. The advantage is that they are simple and easy to train. The disadvantage is that the farmers he recruits are suitable as soldiers, but the energy spent on promoting them to become officers is huge.  The advantage of recruiting student soldiers is that it skips the step of teaching soldiers how to read. The disadvantage is that among the scholars there are few officers who can really become talents, but there are many staff. I wonder if I am right?"

    Wang Geng looked at the generals at the banquet and said calmly, in fact, Feng Yuxiang has always had the mentality of Ye Gong who loves dragons towards intellectuals. He likes to be close to him and use him, but does not give people the opportunity to lead troops. As time goes on, Feng Yuxiang gradually becomes a guard.  Become a camper, but a high-level intellectual like Xue Dubi is still a fictitious military judge.

    "Supervisor, these farmers are easy to follow and have few bad habits! Mr. Feng is most afraid of soldiers and gangsters! Let me decide whether it is better to recruit new soldiers or farmers!" Li Mingzhong scratched his head and helped Feng Yuxiang to distinguish.

    Wang Geng disagreed in his heart. Damn, history has proven that the liberation fighters are definitely more effective than the independent peasants. They are skilled soldiers with good marksmanship and can dig fortifications. They also know how to respect superiors and subordinates and obey orders. So why not recruit independent peasants?  Yes, if you scold him a few times and kick him, he will go to an organization to complain about your violation of human rights.

    In many cases, the efficiency of democracy is far less than that of dictatorship, so Wang Geng does not intend to realize democracy in his own team so quickly until the time is right.

    "Supervisor, Mr. Feng never recruits soldiers who have calluses on their hands and they look like they have been soldiers. Don't we have to recruit people from other teams?" Zhang Zhijiang said with a smile on his face.

    "Mr. Feng always wants to train an army of his direct disciples. He has good intentions, but the structure is a bit small. In the eyes of Wang Geng, only the great powers that invade and bully China are temporary enemies. All patriotic Chinese are  "Our compatriots, if we believe that we are on the right path, we must be confident enough to absorb and melt those compatriots who may temporarily stand against us, even the troops of other warlords."

    Wang Geng's tone was firm. Obviously, in his opinion, the scope of recruitment would not be limited to farmers and students. In fact, Wang Geng secretly thought in his heart that intellectuals in China are so rare in this era. Peking University even only has a few hundred students. Unless they recruit  As a technical force, letting student soldiers go to the battlefield as cannon fodder is definitely a waste of resources and talent!

    I just want to recruit student soldiers, which will also be the work of armored forces and aviation pilots in the future. The ordinary army cannot be so wasteful.

    "As long as they meet our recruitment requirements, we will recruit them. But first of all, they must have a clean financial background, and secondly, they must not smoke or gamble," Wang Geng said with a smile.

    ¡°What do you mean by the warlord, do you want to recruit those idle second-rate people in rural towns and cities?¡± Li Mingzhong couldn¡¯t help but ask.

    "As long as you don't smoke or gamble, have a clean financial record and no homicide record, and meet our physical and age requirements for bidding, why not recruit them? These people stay in the local area and do not engage in production. They have nowhere to make a living, so they will naturally be idle. But these people often  They are quick-minded and quick to learn. If we recruit these people, the local public security and atmosphere will improve, and these people can make a living and support their families in the army, so why not do it?"

    Wang Geng inspired everyone with his persuasion. Everyone at the table was speechless for a moment. It was obvious that Wang Geng's ideas overturned the concepts that these guys had cultivated under Feng Yuxiang's influence for a long time.

    "We must believe that the melting pot of the military can recycle many crooked melons, cracked dates, and defective products into useful talents!"

    "When we recruit a young farmer, the farmer's family will have one less person to cultivate the field, and the food produced by the field may be less. And the farmer's family may become worse over a period of time due to the lack of strong labor.  Poverty, if this farmer joins the army and dies in battle, the loss to the family will be irreparable. "

    Everyone was silent. It was obvious that Wang Geng's idea was an eye-opener for everyone. Recruitment was linked to rural grain production. Everyone carefully chewed the meaning of Wang Geng's words, and gradually felt that Wang Geng, a guy who came back from the West Point, might really be able to  Lead everyone to make something famous!
