Chapter 107 Chapter [-]
"Of course." Zhou Changfeng replied very firmly.

Xu Zhanming immediately sat down on a chair beside him, and then said unhurriedly: "After several months of discussions, we plan to reorganize the Marine Corps to strengthen its effectiveness and independent combat capability."

The Ming Marine Corps is not an independent service. It is directly subordinate to the Navy. Its responsibilities are to guard naval bases and perform amphibious landing missions. Its purpose is very single, and subsequent attacks on deep areas are not within its mission.

At present, it has a total of [-] battalions, which are stationed in Sea Cucumber, Jinzhou (Dalian), Tianjin, Weihai, Fushan (Qingdao), Shanghai, Zhoushan, Hangzhou, Fuzhou, Guangzhou, Zhanjiang, Qiongzhou, Dagu (Kaohsiung) and other places.

Obviously, battalion-level units in this era are very weak. They cannot perform tasks independently without being separated from large forces, and can only deal with a single situation.

Now that the situation is turbulent, the navy is determined to build a combat force with independent combat capabilities, and the reasons are self-evident.

At first, Zhou Changfeng thought that the navy came to him to inquire about the situation of the Dutch and Indian Army in detail, but why did he mention the reorganization of the Marine Corps?

What does this have to do with me?Could it be...

"For the purpose of experimentation, we plan to try to form two regiment-level units first, and divide them into two major fleets. You can be ready to transfer." Xu Zhanming said leisurely.

ah?

"As a pilot unit, the establishment of the two regiments is relatively ordinary, but they are unusual regiments. That is the establishment table commissioned by the Navy Department to the Military Organization Bureau."

Moreover, the composition of its troop source is also abnormal. 1000 people were drawn from the 1000 existing battalions of the Marine Corps, and the other [-] people were drawn from various divisions of the Army.

"Because the ten landing ships can only carry so few people and things at least." Zhou Changfeng answered simply.

A lieutenant colonel of the navy next to him handed Xu Zhanming a hardcover booklet, under the cover was "Trying out the Regulations for the Establishment of a Marine Corps Type-A Regimental Unit".

In fact, there is no transfer order, you are here to fool him.

Before opening and browsing the system, even Xu Zhanming was dumbfounded by his lack of knowledge-he told you that it was a "group"?Where is there no regiment-level unit of that size?
But it must be the Marine Corps, which is the same. If it is to attack Nanyang, the Marine Corps is not a slow pioneer.

Zhou Changfeng was stunned for a moment by the abrupt sentence of "ready to transfer". Without knowing the truth, he hesitated and asked, "Jun Zuo, is this an order from the Ministry of War?"

"Mr. Xu, instead of being so homogeneous, why are they smaller and formed into a brigade?" I asked.

The infantry artillery team is equipped with 6 80mm heavy infantry artillery, which are used in a concentrated manner, but are assigned to each battalion for use according to the situation during wartime, providing them with direct fire support.

The heavy force battalion is equipped with 18 128mm heavy mortars, and the mountain artillery team is equipped with 6 112mm howitzers, which are used for indirect fire support tasks at medium and long distances.

And the drudgery of poaching people fell on him at first, which made Zhou Chang's style small, because both Huang Taize and Pang Lingqi were the ones who dealt with bad things, and he was afraid that he would have to apologize at first.

Ding Liangwan, who had no sympathy, expressed his understanding, and then confessed the difficulties to Ding Liangwan—although the Marine Corps is very attractive, but he is going to quit because of his bad behavior, so how can it work?

After a long time, it turned out that the navy came to poach the wall.

Well, because you are the one to take the blame.
Landing operations are extremely simple, and force projection is very particular about efficiency and errors. The Xiaoming Navy believes that coordinating ten small landing ships at a time on a single landing site is the limit of current conditions, so the organization naturally has to be determined according to that data.

Combat units - eight infantry battalions, one amphibious combat team.

The total number of people under the establishment table is as low as 18, and the firepower far exceeds that of any regiment-level unit in the world. Xu Zhanming felt that if it was because of the convenience of landing, the Military Management Bureau would probably send a heavy assault The artillery battalion was changed to a mountain artillery battalion equipped with 112 [-]mm howitzers.

Headquarters - regiment headquarters, garrison platoon, gendarmerie platoon, communication platoon;
A few people in the navy pondered for a while, and felt that the boss was wrong and indeed very suitable, so they refused.

At this moment, Ding Liangwan also realized the strangeness-whether there is a transfer order, and what transfer is he planning to do.

In the eyes of many people, the Forbidden Army is a bad place with discounts and discounts - low salary, bad treatment, high risk. Although the ridicule of the watchdog of the capital sounds bad, who cares?
Xu Zhanming's face changed, and he said calmly: "The transfer order will arrive soon."

But the key point is that it is an act of poaching, and it is really embarrassing for people to go to the imperial army.

From a subjective point of view, Xu Zhanming is naturally very happy, but in life, there are many ways of the world, and Daoda himself took the initiative to "jump jobs". son.

In addition to the service unit, the amphibious combat convoy has eight seven-car tank platoons at the upper level, including the eight tanks at the headquarters of the lower team, a total of 18 Type 4.6 floating tanks, that is, amphibious tanks; the total combat weight is 16 tons, and the turret The frontal armor of the car body is 12mm and 38.4mm respectively, and it is equipped with a [-]mm short barrel gun and a machine gun.

The Military Organization Bureau calculated the total transport capacity very rigorously, and then designed such a strange establishment with the best overall combat power.

But Xu Zhanming is the same. To be honest, I was actually quite worried that I would be able to use it if I stayed in the capital for a long time.

Hearing this, Zhou Changfeng had an expression of "you know it", and I said leisurely, "I have to worry about that, as long as he has no intention, resentment will definitely get on him."

Xu Zhanming was deeply surprised by such an outrageous weaving. To be honest, I think I understand why such a weird weaving was made-is it a mysterious brigade?

Many people either eat the grapes or say the grapes are sour, and their mouths are full of crumbs, but they must really transfer me to the Imperial Army, so we will immediately go to the post happily.

Combat support units - heavy mortar battalion, mountain artillery team, infantry artillery team, anti-aircraft artillery team, engineer team, anti-aircraft artillery platoon, chemical defense platoon;

And that, in fact, was not the fundamental goal of reorganizing the Marine Corps.

Even if a small battle really started, the imperial army might go all in on the war. The eighth mixed brigade participated in the border war. Even if the imperial army really needed to be transferred last time, it was probably the seventh mixed brigade, the first division, and the seventh division. In turn, there are no Mixed [-]st Brigade and Mixed [-]th Brigade permanently stationed in Yanjing.

Seeing my hesitation, Zhou Changfeng thought that I wanted to leave the comfortable place of the imperial army, so he preached the disadvantages of the navy just like recruiting employees in his previous life.

Service support units——supply teams, medical platoons, cooking platoons, post offices, veterinary offices, and equipment repair offices;

"The first regiment belongs to the Eastern Fleet, and the seventh regiment belongs to the Nanyang Fleet. The latter was formed in the capital. The initial running-in and training were also in the local area. They will be transferred to Ningbo after the joint training for the subsequent landing on the beach."

"After all, there is no limit to the size of the marine corps, and it is an elite army. High-quality weapons must be equipped first. At the same time, the salary will definitely be high."

In fact, Ding Liangwan is also very helpless, I really want to personally get involved in the retreat, because the candidates for the commanders of the two marine regiments have long been squeezed out by people, but they still live in places where no one names them. Xu Zhanming's name, and persuaded the navy.
