Yang Ling remembered the Wang Fengqi in front of him. Although he had not graduated from the "Continent University" for a long time, he followed Chen Cheng in the sixth war zone, and then went to the expeditionary force. He was soon promoted to the staff of a major general.
"Brother Yang, with your rich experience in front-line combat and your experience in the commander's department of the war zone, you will be able to achieve success just around the corner. Don't forget about me, brother."
Seeing Yang Ling's strange expression, Wang Fengqi thought that Yang Ling was too happy and didn't react yet.
"Consultant Wang, I belong to the Sulu war zone, why did I suddenly end up in the sixth war zone..." Yang Ling said.
"Hey, our Chief Chen has already contacted the Sulu Theater and the Fifth Theater, and now the Lieyan Special Operations Brigade is under the command of the Sixth Theater."
"Of course, our Chief Chen said that although you are appointed as the senior staff member of the theater war room, you are still in command of the Lieyan Special Operations Brigade." Wang Fengqi explained.
Yang Ling frowned and said, "Then don't I have two jobs? It's not good if I mess things up with one mind and two tasks."
Wang Fengqi smiled and said, "Brother Yang, those who can do more work. Besides, it's nothing to hold two positions. Isn't our Chief Chen the chairman of Hubei Province and the commander-in-chief of our sixth theater?"
"Of course, if you feel too busy at that time, you can just go to the War Room in the theater when you have something to do. You are still mainly in charge of the Flame Special Operations Brigade."
Hearing Wang Fengqi's explanation, Yang Ling also shook his head with a wry smile. He could see that it was not a case of too much work for the capable, but he just wanted to use a high-ranking member in name only to keep himself in the sixth war zone.
But looking back, as a soldier, he was always beating devils no matter where he was. Since he was allowed to stay in the sixth theater, he was beating devils anyway, so it didn't matter.
"Officer Chen attaches great importance to the Lieyan Special Warfare Brigade, but he feels that the strength of the Lieyan Special Warfare Brigade is too weak, so he wants to expand the Lieyan Special Warfare Brigade. I wonder what you think, brother Yang?" Soon, Wang Fengqi asked Cut to the point.
He was ordered to come to Yangling and their Lieyan special warfare brigade. In addition to telling Yang Ling that they would be under the control of the sixth war zone, the most important thing was the expansion of the Lieyan special warfare brigade.
"Expansion?" Yang Ling didn't expect Mr. Chen to have such an idea.
Yang Ling naturally hoped that the Lieyan special warfare team would become stronger and stronger, but he also knew very well that expanding the elite force was not an easy task.
"Consultant Wang, I'll tell you the truth. I have no objection to the expansion of the Raging Flame Special Operations Brigade, but every soldier in the Raging Flame Special Operations Brigade is carefully selected. If we blindly expand the establishment, I'm afraid it will be counterproductive, and the combat effectiveness will be reversed." will go down."
"Officer Chen is also worried about this aspect, so he sent me to ask your opinion on how to avoid such a thing from happening." Wang Fengqi said with a serious face.
Yang Ling thought for a while and replied: "There is only one way to expand the army without reducing the combat effectiveness, and that is to select veterans from various units, equip them with the best weapons, and keep up with the nutrition."
When Yang Ling was in the Sulu theater, he wanted to form more elite special warfare units, but due to limited funds, limited weapons and ammunition, the size of the Lie Yan Special Operations Brigade has not been large.
Now if the sixth war zone can concentrate its forces to support him, then the Raging Flame Special Operations Brigade may really become a large-scale elite force.
At that time, whether it is to concentrate forces to fight or to perform tasks separately, it will become a force that makes devils afraid.
Wang Fengqi asked: "If all the conditions you mentioned are satisfied, how long will it take to form a fighting force?"
Yang Ling thought for a while and replied, "It takes at least a month to initially form combat effectiveness. The premise is that all soldiers are veterans with combat experience."
"Okay, then you get ready, I'll go back and report to Chief Chen, and implement it as soon as possible."
"In such a hurry?"
"You also know that we don't have many conventional troops in the sixth theater, but we have to shoulder the heavy responsibility of defending Chongqing, so now we urgently need an elite mobile force to support everywhere and take the initiative to attack the Japanese and puppet troops. The burden falls on your shoulders."
Hearing what Wang Fengqi said, Yang Ling also felt the weight on his shoulders. This was not an easy task. He asked, "How many people do you want our Raging Flame Special Operations Brigade to expand to, Chief Chen?"
Wang Fengqi stretched out two fingers and said, "In the first stage, expand to 2000 people."
In the sixth war zone, Chen Cheng saw Yang Ling and his team's combat effectiveness, and they were able to rescue thousands of captured officers and soldiers from the heavy siege of the devils, so he hoped that the number of Lie Yan special warfare brigade would be as large as possible.
But he also knew that it was almost impossible to have a large number of people and keep the fighting power from dropping, so he finally set a standard.
That is to expand the number of 2000 people before, and continue to expand if conditions permit. It would be great if we can form an elite mobile division-level force.
Although there are many troops in the sixth war zone, good and bad are mixed, and if a mobile unit that can advance, attack, and retreat can be reorganized on the spot, it will involve all aspects.
Moreover, Chen Cheng didn't trust the officers of many troops, and worried that when the funds went down, they would eat up their salary again, which would delay his important affairs.
So after careful consideration, he decided that instead of choosing the original regular army for reorganization, it would be better for Yang Ling to form a brand new army as a pilot.
Yang Ling's army is directly under the jurisdiction of the Chief of the Sixth War Zone, and his confidants, confidential staff officers Wang Fengqi and Yang Ling are personally responsible for the formation of related matters.
Yang Ling originally thought that the expansion would add 200 people to them, but he didn't expect that Chen Cheng, the commander of the war zone, would have such a big appetite that he would expand to 2000 people in the first phase.
However, the more generals Han Xin had, the better. With the support of the sixth war zone, Yang Ling believed that the Raging Flame Special Warfare Brigade would usher in a period of vigorous development.
Yang Ling couldn't help but get excited when he thought that a 2000-strong special operations force would go deep into the little devil's occupied area to start operations.
"Consultant Wang, to form a 2000-strong Lieyan Special Forces Brigade, the backbone officers at the grassroots level are very important. I want the Subei Corps to transfer some trustworthy brothers over there."
"This is no problem. You make a list and I will report it to Chief Chen."
The first thousand and 420 chapters of the main body
After the official signing of the order by the theater commander's headquarters, the expansion of the Flame Special Operations Brigade officially began.
The Raging Flame Special Operations Brigade is directly under the command of the Commander's Department of the Sixth War Zone. Chen Cheng's confidant and confidential staff officer Wang Fengqi is in charge of logistics and equipment liaison and other matters, and Yang Ling, the actual commander, is in charge of troop training.
Since the number of the Lieyan Special Forces Brigade will be directly expanded to 2000, Yang Ling wandered around Enshi for several days before finding a suitable camp.
The Lie Yan Special Operations Brigade is the ace elite unit prepared to deal with the devils in the sixth theater. In order to keep the principle of confidentiality, Yang Ling's camp was located in the mountains near Enshi.
Confidential staff officer Wang Fengqi organized more than 3000 civilians to tidy up the barracks and training grounds of the Lieyan Special Forces Brigade after a busy week.
Yang Ling led the officers and soldiers of the Raging Flame Special Operations Brigade to move to the new camp, commanding the soldiers of the Raging Flame Special Operations Brigade to make various training facilities according to their own arrangements.
This secret training camp is surrounded by mountains and forests, but tree stumps were erected, barbed wire fences were laid out, and combat bunkers were built at some key points. The sentinels were heavily guarded on the inner and outer third floors, and even a mosquito would not even think about flying. go in.
According to the requirements of the special forces training syllabus, Yang Ling asked his brothers to set up training grounds with various scenes in the camp, including minefields, rock climbing, and obstacle areas.
Wang Fengqi's work efficiency was also very high. As soon as Yang Ling and the others arranged everything in the secret camp, [-] carefully selected soldiers were sent to this secret camp.
"These are all veterans selected from various armies. They have fought at least one battle. I have spent a lot of effort to get them out of each army."
What Wang Fengqi said was true, because veterans are very popular in all units, and sometimes officers would rather exchange ten recruits for one veteran.
If Wang Fengqi hadn't held the Shangfang sword from the Commander's Department of the Sixth War Zone, I'm afraid even a veteran would not be able to take it away.
This time he took away so many veterans, but he made many officers feel distressed, but they were helpless, who made Wang Fengqi Chen Cheng's confidant and confidential staff.Still holding the order of the theater, they had to let people go.
Now all the troops have lost a lot in the successive battles with the little devils, and the veterans are treasures.
Moreover, these veterans have all participated in at least one battle and killed devils in their hands, so they are inevitably a little arrogant.
Now let them leave the familiar former army and come to this secret camp in the mountains, one can imagine their feelings.
"Damn, what are we doing here?"
Facing the densely packed mountains around the camp, these selected soldiers were extremely unhappy.
"Ghost knows, there are no people in the poor mountains and rivers, and there are no places to gamble."
