Chapter 174: Invalids Ranch

Adjutant He said: "My 25th Army has been away from the central government in Guizhou for a long time. I don't know what the reorganization will be like? I would like to ask Staff Jin to give me some tips."

Jin Batianxin said what to say about this, and told him that the central government was going to mix a bowl of sand into this small pot of rice, and he would fool him. Then he thought, it was wrong. He couldn't just ask us only for this matter - he was not in charge of this matter, and he didn't give gifts or anything else - of course, it was not ruled out that the Guizhou Army was poorer, so it was probably confirmed by us. Otherwise, as soon as he opened his mouth, he wouldn't invite himself to go to the Eight Great Hutongs, and it would probably be good if he invited his own tea.

After thinking about the speech pattern of the people in the staff office - only talking to everyone. Jin Batian had an idea in his mind and said, "Although this matter of your army is not my control, I still know something. You also know that the central government has spent a lot of money, effort and determination to reform the army this time. Although the Japanese were disturbed by this, the dress-up and reorganization were still being implemented.

In fact, the troops after reorganization and dressing are divided into three types. One is the reorganized division, with more than 30,000 combat soldiers in the division. This is a first-class strong army. To this day, only more than 20 officers have been organized. The officers here are also from Huangpu Lu University, who was born in a yellow jacket and green hat. Although the highest positions are the division commanders and brigade commanders, the commanders of a reorganized division were taken outside to give them to the commanders of the group army."

Adjutant He also had a deep impression of this super-large reorganized division. Whether it is equipment or personnel, a division will destroy its own 25th Army of Guizhou Army. Not to mention that a group of troops with a miscellaneous 25th Army has no advantage over the reorganized division in terms of number. Now they say that they are the division commander and the brigade commander are just not qualified. If they make contributions in a few years, they will be the commander and the commander of the army. Besides, they are now living the life of the commander and the commander of the army.

I heard Jin Batian continue to say, "After arriving below, you must know that I also have a job in the 29th Army. The 29th Army is one of the earliest trainers, which is not bad. Each division has 15,000 combat soldiers. It is well equipped to be equivalent to the previous A-type division.

There are troops that only change clothes and don’t have much time to train. This group is called the adjustment division. This group is a little messy. There are one division with more than 10,000 people, and one division with five or 6,000 people, but the guys in their hands have been greatly strengthened."

Adjutant He asked in a low voice: "Of course we don't dare to think about the reorganizer, but are our Guizhou Army two or three?"

Jin Batian thought for a while, dipped his finger in tea and drew a three-piece on the table, then wiped it off and said: "The difference between the adjusting division and the trainer is not that big now. I remember that the quota of personnel in the 25th Army is more than 24,000. Don't worry, it's still more than 24,000 people after the adjustment. It's a good thing for you Commander He."

As for half of these 24,000 people who will have a new face, there is no need to tell him, it is not good to mix sand. If this master secretly understands Wang Jialie or Wan Shufen, how can he break it?

"Acting Commander, Acting Commander." Adjutant He quickly explained. He knew the problem of the 25th Army best. He said that it was nearly 25,000 people, but in fact the entire army had only 20,000 people, and each of the 103rd and 102nd Divisions was 10,000 people. If the troops had no vacancy, how could they get empty salary? Guizhou Province could not collect taxes, and the officers in Guizhou Province had to follow the old habit of subsidizing their household expenses.

These news are similar to what Adjutant He has found out these days. Adjutant He asked again: "What we are more concerned about is the equipment of this adjuster? How many artillery are there?"

Jin Batian asked back: "Does the Guizhou Army have no artillery now?"

Adjutant He said shyly: "The mountains in Guizhou are not conducive to artillery activities. The 25th Army only has dozens of mortars, and the three copper mountain cannons are already old and useable."

Only then did Jin Batian realize that the Guizhou army was as difficult as the Sichuan army. There were too many warlords in the middle of Sichuan. Although the number of warlords and troops in the Guizhou army were far less than that in Sichuan, it was because of its own population and economy. Fortunately, this was not a secret. Jin Batian said: "If the division belongs to the artillery battalion, there are twelve seven-five mountain cannons and twenty-four air-defense cannons. In addition, the light mortar team is arranged at the platoon level. The battalion regiment level has an anti-aircraft artillery team and a war-defense artillery team."

This is not a great configuration, but now the domestic weapons have been blocked by foreign countries for decades, and it is really difficult for the inland warlords to get some new equipment - many general artillery from the former Qing Dynasty have been brought out, and the arsenal of the replacement is simply an arms museum of the two dynasties.

When Adjutant He heard that it was similar to the information he had observed and inquired over the past few days, he felt relieved and held his fist and said, "Thank you, Staff Jin, I will invite Staff Jin for tea another day. If you have something to do today, He will say goodbye first."

Although Adjutant He is older than him, he has a younger military rank, and Jin Batian did not get up to give it to him. When he checked the bill, he realized that Adjutant He had left ten yuan and paid the rest for himself and left it in his account. No wonder he would invite himself to have tea another day. The ten yuan really requires a few days of good tea.

It’s not worth it to pay back. Ten yuan is not enough to travel by yourself. Forget it, is life a treat to dinner?

The next morning, Jin Batian of the Ministry of Military Affairs reported this to Song Ziwen. The deputy could find the teahouse he often went to. How could the Ministry of Military Affairs and the Minister not know that it was a big deal or a small matter to talk to other troops. When the incident was a big deal, he ate a gun and said something to him.

Sure enough, Minister Song said after hearing this: I understand.

This matter has passed like this. Minister Song has been upset recently about the casualties of the reorganized 100 Division. It was nothing to be injured. It was naturally best to rescue and rescue. He was also a martyr who died in battle, so he should give him a pension and a pension. The biggest problem is the disabled soldiers. There are nearly a thousand disabled soldiers who have been disabled until now. Two days ago, a disabled soldier committed suicide and went to the local newspaper.

Why? Because disabled soldiers can only send some repayment fees and disability subsidies to home at one time. Some disabled soldiers feel that they have become useless people, and the one who commits suicide does not want to drag down their families. They choose this path of no return. In fact, if you install prosthetics, you can't do some light work, but even Minister Song can't arrange so many employment problems for disabled soldiers.

After listening to the minister's worries, Jin Batian said, "I thought it was a big deal?"

Minister Song asked, "You have a way?"

Jin Batian said: "It's too simple. If your legs are not good, you won't be able to exercise. But you can find a job that allows them to sit and do to support yourself. For example, cigarettes are available in two types of hand-rolled machine-rolled cigarettes. Speaking of which, hand-rolled cigars are not expensive. It's not difficult to learn. Opening a cigarette factory can accommodate thousands or even tens of thousands of people. South America produces tobacco leaves, so the minister won't be able to get them."

Minister Song continued to ask, "What's the inconvenient hand?"

"Open a ranch and let them herd cattle, sheep, chickens and pigs. There are now large areas of wasteland in Chahar, Rehe, which can be used for breeding. There are so many people in Peking, and there is also a great demand for meat. The Ministry of Military Affairs issued a decree to nationalize the land of the unowned wastelands in the two places to establish a Vanguard ranch. It should be fine to grind sheep or herd cattle with one hand. This Vanguard ranch and a Vanguard cigarette factory can at least solve the employment problem of tens of thousands of disabled soldiers. If the money is, I can pay a part of it. At that time, let them all be shareholders to bear the profit and loss. We set this factory ranch not to make money, but to solve a large number of employment."

Minister Song thought about it and thought it was okay and immediately approved the note. In fact, children in both industries can do it, so the profit is not high. But now there are people who need this job more. For children, it is better to do whatever they should do. Minister Song wants to come to grazing or cigarettes as a shareholder, which may be a good way out for these people.

Jin Batian also wrote a check of 100,000 yuan as the start-up capital of the first Vanguard Ranch and Vanguard cigarette factory. Jin Batian himself did not hold shares here. All the shares were disabled soldiers. This is the tone of the establishment of these two factories. These people are often more difficult than the dead martyrs.
