A large number of recruits are being trained, and now, the additional financial resources of the troops, and there is a relatively stable source, and the second regiment is basically no difficult problem now, with money and guns, it is waiting to become an army, but after the problem of material and soldier resources is solved, it does not mean that everything is fine, as the so-called problems are connected with problems, and the regiment commander Zhang Wei must think about an extremely important issue, that is, the future training and combat policy of the team under his command, and the current training is for future operations.
Therefore, Zhang Wei had to think more about the future policy and the battlefield environment he would face, which would be the same as the current training. and victory or defeat on the battlefield in the future.
Previously, Zhang Wei didn't think much about this aspect, but now he has to think more, because his subordinates are nearly 3,000 lives and nearly 3,000 Chinese soldiers.
"Kill" The high sound of drills and gunfire of the soldiers on the training ground did not affect Zhang Wei's thoughts in the regiment headquarters office, Zhang Wei took a pen and paper, wrote and painted, and recorded what he was doing one by one, and the best way to sort out his thoughts was to put what he thought in his heart on paper.
Zhang Wei dared to guarantee that after the regiment was formed, its combat effectiveness would be at least half a division of the main divisions of the Fifth Army.
In Zhang Wei's memory, the Fifth Army in the next two years, it seems that there is no big battle to fight, now it is 1940, that is, the 29th year of the Republic of China, until 1942, Zhang Wei can be sure that he and his own troops will not start a large-scale confrontation with the Japanese army, that is to say, he has nearly two years to reorganize and train the troops with peace of mind.
But two years later.
Zhang Wei can remember that in the past two years, the troops have been in peace, but there is no peace outside, and the situation on the domestic battlefield and abroad is not stable, and in another year or so, a certain military port in the Pacific Ocean will be raided by the Combined Fleet, and the United States will join this melee that has become a pot of porridge, and the situation of the war will change drastically, but this has no direct impact on Zhang Wei and the troops, and then, in another year, Zhang Wei's Fifth Army will usher in a test after a two-year period of stability.
An extremely dangerous test to fight in Burma.
Zhang Wei wrote down the four characters on the paper and sorted out the situation here, and as soon as these four characters came out, it was obvious what the goal of the unit's policy was.
What does it mean to enter Burma, Zhang Wei knows too well, in later generations, this time in order to protect the strategic blood vessels to fight abroad, almost everyone knows, but now Zhang Wei is not a bystander, but to really join in this battle, into Burma to fight, this is the general trend, is absolutely going to happen, Zhang Wei is both frightened, and worried, the thought of going to Burma to fight in that bird place, he can't help but worry, the first time to fight in Burma, even though the national army fought can sing and cry, but can sing and cry, It does not mean that the battle will be fought well, behind the battle in Burma are thousands of lives and white bones in the jungles of northern Myanmar, and tens of thousands of loyal souls wandering in the jungles of northern Myanmar.
Regardless of the various strategic problems, that is, the battlefield environment, it is a very serious problem, that ghost place, not to mention the forests, is also in the tropics, and there are only two seasons all year round: the hot season and the rainy season.
It's not a good thing to pull soldiers to fight in that hellish place, where the battlefield conditions are much worse than those at home, the terrain, the climate, all difficult and dangerous.
Zhang Wei knew very well that it was useless to talk empty words, and it was nonsense to say anything about driving the Japanese army out of Burma to the sea, and Zhang Wei was more concerned about the operation based on the existing situation of the regiment, so that the troops could fight better and be more handy in Burma, or in other words, he was more concerned about tactical problems and strategic problems, and it was not his turn to think about it for the time being The big war in two years, from now on, we have to start making preparations, to fight in Burma, the first thing to face is the local environment and terrain, the climate of Myanmar, needless to say, Zhang Wei has studied geography in his previous life, in the tropics, only the hot season and the rainy season, only two seasons, when it is dry, there is no water at all, and in the heavy rainy season, the rainfall can make floods.
It is completely different from the domestic war, there are dense jungles, leeches, miasma full of deep mountains and old forests, there are also towns, the terrain, the water network and streams are dense, and the mountains are intertwined, so it is necessary to take defensive measures in advance.
To deal with leeches, miasma, jungle, relying on the soldiers themselves is definitely not good, Zhang Wei picked up the pen and wrote, wrote the word equipment, let his soldiers wear straw shoes and cloth shoes, wearing big shorts to run around in Myanmar, Zhang Wei is absolutely not allowed, those broken straw shoes, not to mention walking on the mountain road, is to take the road, step on a few days and rot, although the cloth shoes sent down are much better, but in the mud and mountains of Myanmar, it is estimated that it will not last a few days, so you must buy your own equipment, especially the equipment suitable for jungle warfare, Absolutely necessary.
I can't believe straw sandals and cloth shoes, that's about the same, at least that thing is durable, to prevent insects, it must be a better quality military uniform, the military uniform issued by the Fifth Army is still good in the national army, but it is still a coarse cloth military uniform, the military uniform pants in summer, the same kind of big shorts, the legs are exposed to a large piece, in addition, you also need to be able to protect the bare skin of the insect-proof net and insect-proof mask, all kinds of insect-proof equipment is absolutely indispensable, in the mountains of Myanmar, people are bitten alive by insects is not a joke, Mosquitoes in the deep mountains and old forests can suck blood.
After the word equipment, Zhang Wei wrote rubber shoes, insect-proof nets, insect-proof masks, socks and other equipment, and listed all the equipment and equipment he could think of for fighting in the jungle and the tropics.
There are miasma, insects and mosquitoes, and it is bound to bring diseases, Zhang Wei, and then wrote down the word medicine, well, in a place where miasma is rampant, it is also appropriate to prepare medicines, anyway, the current supplementary second group is not short of money, and it is not difficult to buy some targeted medicines, even if they are in short supply.
In short, in terms of hardware, in the face of the terrain and environment of Myanmar, it is indeed necessary to prepare well, and the money for selling smuggled salt should also be spent here.
If you want to fight a good battle, in terms of tactics, Zhang Wei also has to make changes, the environment and terrain affect the configuration of equipment, and similarly, tactics will also be affected, like in the Battle of Guinan, Zhang Wei took the teaching brigade along the road to play with the Takeda brigade, and then called the friendly army to kill it in one fell swoop.
Although the Fifth Army had a lot of vehicles and equipment, trucks and engineering vehicles, the terrain of Burma doomed the vehicles to be impossible to use as needed Mountain warfare, marching force, in the construction of tactics, is crucial Quietly, Zhang Wei's paper was covered with dense words, and everything between the lines was prepared for the cruel test in the future ：。
