Commander Lu frowned slightly, nodded and said, "This is indeed a trouble, the armored corps is different from other arms, and it has higher requirements for the quality of soldiers.However, most of the soldiers of our army are from peasant backgrounds, and their general education is low, so it is really difficult for them to do their jobs.However, when I was at the headquarters, I heard that Yan'an has begun to organize and call on college students to join the army, not only our armored division, but also the aviation division has higher requirements than us, not only pilots, but also ground staff, and corresponding engineering personnel, all of which are expanding in large quantities.Therefore, there are definitely difficulties, but as long as we find a way, we will definitely be able to overcome all difficulties. ”"Hmm" Li Guotao nodded and said: "However, we can't pin all our hopes on the headquarters and the central committee, we must also actively find ways to continue to screen a group of people from various units and supplement them to the armored division to solve the problem of insufficient personnel in the armored division." ”"Haha," Commander Lu nodded with a smile and said, "It seems that our first job is to select talents." ”Li Guotao smiled and nodded, "For the time being, it should be like this."
As long as the soldiers think of a way, they can always solve the problem, but the selection of the commander of the armored division has not yet been decided, and our army really does not have such talents, which is really embarrassing. ”Yang Xuecheng nodded and said: "This is indeed a problem, this is the first armored unit of our army, among the generals of our army, none of them have experience in commanding large-scale armored troops, and the selection of this division commander is the top priority, it is really difficult to do" After Yang Xuecheng said this, everyone couldn't help but nodded, and the scene fell silent for a while.Li Guotao frowned and thought about it, looked at Yang Xuecheng in front of him, and couldn't help but show a smile on the corner of his mouth.Yang Xuecheng saw that Li Guotao's eyes were a little weird when he looked at him, and couldn't help frowning, and asked with a puzzled expression: "Old Li, why are you looking at me like this, is it difficult that there are flowers on my face" Li Guotao couldn't help but smile, and said seriously: "I have a proposal, I don't know if it's feasible or not." ”Commander Lu smiled and said, "You are our commander, how can you still talk like this, just say what you want." ”Li Guotao said with a smile: "In terms of the armored division, we don't have a suitable candidate for the division commander for a while, but this position can't be vacant all the time, do you think this is okay, let Lao Yang concurrently serve as the commander of the armored division, if there is a suitable candidate, it is not too late for him to take over Lao Yang's work" "I" Yang Xuecheng pointed to his nose and asked with a surprised face."
That's right, it's you," Li Guotao nodded and said."
I can't, I've never commanded armored troops, aren't you chasing ducks to the shelves" Yang Xuecheng shook his head like a rattle.Li Guotao explained with a smile: "The problem is that we don't have a more suitable candidate now, Lao Yang has participated in the revolution for more than ten years, it can be said that he has experienced a hundred battles, and he is brave in battle, your prestige is well known at home and abroad, and it is very suitable for you to serve as the commander of this division." ”"But I don't have experience, I can't even drive an armored car, how can I serve the public as this division commander," Yang Xuecheng said with a look of embarrassment."
Can't you learn," Commander Lu hurriedly said: "We don't know how to do it, why don't we form an armored division, everyone has the first time, and the experience is accumulated step by step."
Didn't the Soviet Russian side say that it would send a group of instructors to help us train, as long as we are willing to work hard to learn, are we afraid that we won't be able to learn?"
Li Guotao nodded and said: "In addition, the headquarters is also actively trying to find a way, and has found several relevant talents, including those who have served as armored soldiers from the Central Army, and there are also international students who have studied armored troops and related majors from the Soviet Union Military Academy, and these people are all talents in this field."
It's just that they either lack actual combat experience, or they don't have enough prestige, and they are not very suitable to be this division commander.Although you are a layman, your prestige is enough, and with the help of these people, I believe you will definitely be able to be a good division commander. ”Yang Xuecheng sighed softly, and said stubbornly: "Since you all said so, then I will do this division commander first, and if there is a more suitable candidate, I will immediately abdicate and make way for Xian."
And if I really don't do a good job, please ask the commander to remove me immediately, I don't want to be a sinner of the nation" "Haha, then you just work hard to be the commander of this division." ”Li Guotao said with a laugh.Commander Lu also nodded and said, "I think this matter is settled, let's talk about other things." ”Li Guotao nodded and said, "In addition to this matter, it is a matter of troop training."
Our seventh column has replenished nearly 100,000 new soldiers at once this time, and although these soldiers are also the elite drawn from various units, the various units have just been reorganized and need time to run in.Some of the troops have been reequipped with Soviet-style weapons, and the fighters also need time to familiarize themselves with the new weapons, so the training work of the troops is still very heavy.But the three of you are here today, and you can also help us share some of the burden. ”While drinking hot tea, everyone chatted about the training of the troops, and everyone expressed their opinions and chatted happily, and the time passed minute by minute.It wasn't until nightfall, when a guard came in to remind the chiefs that it was time to eat, and everyone stopped.Chief of Staff Ma Zhenguo said with a smile: "The soldiers of the guard battalion shot a deer this morning, and we can just beat the tooth sacrifice, which can be regarded as a pick-up for the political commissar and the two deputy commanders." ”"It seems that we have a good fortune today," Commissar Lu said with a smile.Now that Commander Lu has become the new political commissar of the Seventh Column, his title will naturally change."
Is there any wine, this ghost weather, it's too cold, I really want to drink some wine to warm up," Yang Xuecheng asked with a smile."
Yes, as long as you promise not to drink too much and delay your work, you have to manage as much as you want," Li Guotao replied with a smile."
Haha Lao Li is not me bragging, if you want to lead troops to fight, I am willing to bow to the wind, I am indeed not as good as you, I am convinced.But when it comes to drinking, you may not be my opponent," Yang Xuecheng said with an excited face."
Oh, what a big breath, so why don't you try it today," Li Guotao said without showing weakness.Commander Lu said with a smile: "Guotao, you said it yourself just now, you can't delay your work, you kid don't drink too much." ”Li Guotao laughed and said: "But you are my old chief, don't you have confidence in me" aa2705221:
