SHIELD's new recruits

"In the current establishment, our division has more than 27000 people, but there are only 72 artillery pieces. At the same time, the caliber of the artillery is very single, 75mm and 155mm, but the difference in their size is too large, which is not conducive to the mobility of the whole division. , there are too many people, even the logistics are quite troublesome."

"If you use my weapons, you can completely cancel the brigade-level units of the division-level troops, and choose the organization of one division and three regiments, and the following is also a three-three system. Each infantry squad has 13 people. A sergeant squad leader, A corporal is equipped with a submachine gun and a pistol, a two-person machine gun team, and the remaining nine use semi-automatic rifles. Under such firepower, light weapons are completely sufficient, and now there is no opponent in the world."

"Three squads form a row, equipped with a 60mm mortar team of four, 80mm mortars at the company level, 120mm mortars at the battalion level, plus 75mm artillery companies at the regiment level, and 105 artillery battalions at the division level. , the firepower is completely sufficient."

Pershing asked at this time: "What about the heavy artillery?" His eyes were already looking at the heavy artillery placed aside.

Wesley said with a smile: "The general is really impatient. Now we are talking about heavy artillery. These big guys will never be faster than infantry. Then we can gather them together to form a brigade, a heavy artillery brigade. The brigade-level units we It can be designed as special arms, such as heavy artillery brigade, engineering brigade, cavalry brigade and other special combat units. These special units need special treatment because of their special nature. For example, the centralized use of heavy artillery is very inconvenient if it is scattered. Without infantry, it is not convenient to supply, and at the same time, the range is not powerful, but it is the same when it is concentrated.”

"I think the general should be the most aware of the concentrated bombardment of heavy artillery. When engineers are concentrated, they can be dispersed when necessary, and manpower can be concentrated when building roads and bridges. Therefore, brigade-level units do not set up regiments, but directly set up battalion-level units. , each brigade is equipped with six battalions, which is also a three-three system."

"In this way, it is convenient to disperse and cooperate with infantry, and it is also convenient to use in a centralized manner. We can also concentrate three division-level troops into an army and deploy brigade-level special forces, while army-level combat units are temporary, such as during a war, and then disbanded. .The three armies become a group army. They can be dispersed and combined as you like, and can adapt to any war situation."

After Verus finished speaking, he took a glass of water from the worker next to him and drank it. Wesley was well prepared. Not only did he have water to drink, but everyone else had it.All Coca-Cola.

We said a lot just now, and Wesley waited for them to consume a bit before pointing to the heavy artillery and said: "120mm howitzer and 155mm howitzer, these are the two types of artillery equipped by the heavy artillery brigade, each with three battalion configurations, matching the artillery of division-level units , multi-level, multi-position, multi-functional battlefield firepower coverage, I think this is enough, isn't it?"

"Let's cover up the heavy artillery!" Perxing was eager to try, but Wesley had no choice but to let someone fire. The two types of artillery are very powerful, and they all shoot in the direction of the sea, otherwise it would be difficult to show the advantage in distance.The location of West Point is by the sea, otherwise the artillery would not be able to train at all, and now it can fully demonstrate the advantage in distance. Wesley's design is not the heavy artillery of World War I, and even surpassed that of World War II.

"Great, Mr. President, we have to re-equip our army. With such equipment, by the way, we still need new tactics, which need to be studied as soon as possible." Pershing said to the president.

The president said helplessly: "My general, I am not the only one who has the final say on the United States. Those in Congress may not agree, and it is basically difficult to agree. The navy is okay, but the army..." Pershing was poured A basin of cold water, but then he looked at Wesley again.

"It seems that I need to go to Congress to speak, but if I succeed, then I hope to form a battalion-level Marine Corps. When the training is complete, I need to expand it into a brigade."

"Haha, young man, so you are waiting here. You just graduated and became a captain, and now you are thinking about the rank of major at the battalion level and the rank of brigadier general at the brigade level?" Perxing laughed.

"Sorry general, if according to my idea, the brigade level is a special combat unit, then the brigade commander should have the rank of major general. I define such a brigade level combat as a technical arm. These soldiers are soldiers with special skills. The army is one level higher." Perxing was dumbfounded, this guy was really rude.

"Okay, today we have opened our eyes. As for the congress speech, I will arrange it. I hope you will perform well. But why do you want to form the Marine Corps? We already have this branch."

"In my opinion, it's just an army of warships. The real marines should take on greater responsibilities, especially in cooperation with the navy in landing operations. But I don't plan to say it here because our navy is too weak. Yes, my shipyard is ready to compete for orders for naval ships, and my Marine Corps must have the best warships to cooperate."

"Young man, although you are talented, if you show your sharpness like this, you will be besieged by those vampires." Perxing said suddenly.

"Don't worry, general, their siege has already started, but how can they siege? What means can they use? Assassination of them has already been used, and it is completely useless. Commercial means or administrative means? And arms and shipbuilding are in the United States. It’s not very outstanding, the interests I’ve invaded are limited, and besides, I’m not without allies.”

Wesley does have allies, but his allies also wanted to annex him before, but now they are more willing to cooperate because they are afraid, such as DuPont, Rockefeller, Morgan, etc. Wesley is looking for powerful friends, But which party they belonged to, Wesley gave them a chance to make money, and all they needed was for them to be honest.

"Let's get here today!" Mr. President left with all the staff, and at this time Principal Clarence came over with a smile.

"Well done boy, although I don't know that you are going to persuade Congress, but I am optimistic about your idea, keep working hard."

"Thank you, Mr. Principal."

In the following days, Wesley was free, and the arsenal had been built. Wesley directly asked the arsenal to hoard raw materials and steel, and the expansion of the shipyard was also going on. The shipyard began to add 5000 4-ton docks and 10000-ton docks. There are 4 docks, these are the first phase of the project, and the freighters needed by Wesley are being built, all of which are container ships and oil tankers.
