Chapter 478 Disarmament on the Eve of War
On August 25th, after more than half a month of rectification and crackdown, both Shuguang City and Poxiaojun have undergone significant changes and regained the trust and support of the residents.
In the first few days, Li Chenglong received a large number of petitioners from Shuguang City residents and some grassroots government officials every day. He promptly addressed their questions and suggestions, and adopted some of their suggestions that were relevant to the current situation.
Because he was very busy, the reception work for the Dawn Army was handed over to Feng Tian, Zheng Yong, Cecily, and Marina. With the joint efforts of the four, all the problems encountered by the original Dawn Army soldiers, the space fleet, or the Setan Star warriors were properly resolved one by one.
After more than half a month of effort, the Type 27 super-powered rifle has been basically replaced. Due to the characteristics of the Type 27 super-powered rifle, it is only suitable for level 9 and above ability users or superpowered individuals. Other warriors will continue to use the original crystal rifle or ordinary super-powered rifle.
In addition, the Ion Blade was also distributed to every level 10 and above ability user. Since only 1000 sets of the Type 25 new combat suit can be produced per day, a considerable number of soldiers have not yet received theirs.
As for the research on space-based null weapons, even in Li Chenglong's space factory, the progress is relatively slow, and no finished products have been produced yet.
However, there is also good news. The space factory has produced a large number of large Type 27 super-powered rifles and large ion swords suitable for use with the S1 mech and S2 air-to-ground transformable mech. With these equipment, the role of the armored division will be even greater.
The current Dawn Army is organized as an army group, with one commander, General Li Chenglong, one deputy commander, Lieutenant General Yun Lan, and the rest being Lieutenant General Zheng Yong, the political commissar; Lieutenant General Feng Tian, the chief of the general staff; and Lieutenant General Qi Guoan, the director of the general political department.
The Dawn Army has two supreme authorities: the Dawn Army Military Committee of the Chinese People's Congress and the Dawn Army General Committee. The composition of the General Committee is slightly different, and the General Committee has more members than the Dawn Army, but the highest leader of both is Li Chenglong.
Other departments include the General Logistics Department of the Dawn Army, headed by Qin Fangyu; the General Armaments Department of the Dawn Army, headed by Hu Cheqian; the Political Department of the Dawn Army, headed by Qi Guoan; the Political and Legal Department of the Dawn Army, headed by Yang Simin; the Discipline Inspection Commission of the Dawn Army, led by Li Chenglong; the General Affairs Department of the Dawn Army, headed by Liu Ming; as well as the Military Court of the Dawn Army, the Military Affairs Department of the Dawn Army, and the Science and Technology Department of the Dawn Army.
In addition to these departments, the Dawn Army headquarters also has some directly subordinate agencies, such as the Strategic Planning Office, the Reform and Organization Office, the Military Cooperation Office, the Audit Office, and the Dawn Army Inspection Team, etc.
Over the past three years, the composition of the Dawn Army has undergone significant changes. Currently, it includes the Dawn Army Army, Dawn Army Air Force, Dawn Army Rocket Force, Dawn Army Mech Division, Dawn Army Strategic Information Support Force, Dawn Army Joint Logistics Support Force, and Dawn Army Armed Police Force.
The Dawn Army currently has a total strength of 12.2, with the ground forces accounting for 70% of the total. It is divided into two full-strength armies and two understrength armies. The total number of individuals with superpowers and abilities within the Dawn Army exceeds 4. Among them, there are 6 level 13 individuals with superpowers and abilities, 50 level 12 individuals, 8107 level 11 individuals, and 18422 level 10 individuals.
The number should have been much larger, but due to the destruction of the Flying Cloud Base and the Clear Water Base, many superhumans perished, so not many superhumans joined those two bases. Fortunately, the addition of Cecily and Erica's space fleet earlier, and later Marina leading all the Setan aliens, brought up the current number.
At 9:00 AM, the Dawn Army Military Conference was held in the main conference hall on the second floor of the Dawn Tower. All officers of the Dawn Army at the regimental and deputy regimental levels and above attended the meeting. The main agenda item of the meeting was to conduct a small-scale reduction of troops and streamline administration within the Dawn Army.
Li Chenglong stood up and spoke first: "The mission has been quite heavy lately, so I won't waste any more time. With the addition of Feiyun Base, Qingshui Base, and our alien friends, the total population of Dawn City has increased significantly. I have some newly compiled statistics on hand; Dawn City now has a population of 61.5."
He paused for a moment, then continued, "Our Dawn Army currently has a total strength of 12.2 men. If we include the city defense troops under the city defense department, our total strength is 13.8. To be honest, it's too much pressure to have a population of less than 48 support an army of nearly 14. But in order to ensure our combat capability, we cannot reduce the number of troops too much. So, after some discussion among our high command, we decided to reduce the entire army by 3 men, bringing the total number of troops down to less than 10.8."
Yunlan stood up, holding a document, and continued, "To ensure combat effectiveness, the 4th Army, composed of space fleets and Setan aliens, will not undergo layoffs this time. Our plan is to reduce the city defense force by 5000 people, the 1st to 3rd Armies by 20,000 people, and other units by 4000 to 5000 people. As for the personnel to be laid off, they should be ordinary people, under the age of 17 or over the age of 45, or those with serious illnesses or disabilities."
These words immediately sparked a flurry of discussion among the officers below the stage, with some expressing their incomprehension.
Zheng Yong then said, "We completely understand if anyone has any misunderstandings or resistance. We are all brothers and sisters who share the same fate. To be honest, I am also very reluctant to see some of you leave. However, please think about Dawn City. The void creatures are attacking frequently, and the pressure of maintaining the army is too great. Recently, it's not just us; other bases are also downsizing. The Yanjing base has already cut 5 troops recently."
After Li Chenglong and the others finished their discussion, he said, "Alright, that's the first topic for today. Now let's discuss the second one, which is the issue of merging our Dawn Army's army. Currently, we have four armies. After approval from the Central Military Commission of China and discussion by the Dawn Army Military Commission of the Chinese People's Congress, it was decided that once the troop reduction is completed, these four armies will be temporarily merged into three reorganized armies."
Qi Guoan stood up, holding a document: "The following are the personnel appointments for the three reorganized armies of the Army. The 1st Army of the Dawn Army: Commander Wu Gang, Deputy Commander Zheng Aiguo, Chief of Staff Wei Lanxin, Director of the Political Department Qian Guangming. The 1st Army comprises two divisions: the 1st Division Commander Hao Dahai, Deputy Commander Zhao Hu; the 2nd Division Commander Song Tie, Deputy Commander Zhai Sheng."
He paused briefly before continuing, "The 2nd Army of the Dawn Army is commanded by Xu Qingming, with Qin Susu as deputy commander, Wang Yousheng as political commissar, Zhao Gang as chief of staff, and Wei Huasheng as director of the political department. The 2nd Army comprises two divisions: the 3rd Division is commanded by Guo Kai with Li Desheng as deputy commander, and the 4th Division is commanded by Wang Shishi with Zhang Long as deputy commander."
After everyone had a moment to process this, he continued, "The commander of the 3rd Army is Marina, the deputy commander is Cecily, the political commissar is Wang Yousheng, the chief of staff is Keltilan, the deputy chief of staff is Reina, and the director of the political department is Liu Chuanfeng. The 3rd Army also has two divisions: the commander of the 5th Division is Sitros, and the commander of the 6th Division is Erica. In addition to the 3rd Army, the other two armies each have a total strength of 2.4 men, and each division is generally divided into 6 regiments."
Li Chenglong smiled and said, "I've done the calculations, and this means our Dawn Army's total ground force will be 6.6. That's a pretty auspicious number. I believe that by streamlining the soldiers and equipping them with new gear, our Dawn Army will definitely be able to achieve even greater success in the battle against the Void creatures. Also, I'd like to say that the troop reduction period is limited to 10 days, and there must be no favoritism or malpractice. If any is discovered, it will be severely punished."
After the meeting, Li Chenglong summoned the leaders of the Dawn Army's Military Affairs Department and the Dawn City's Veterans Resettlement Department, instructing them to work together to properly handle the affairs of the laid-off soldiers, ensuring that those who should continue their studies could do so, and those who should be given priority for employment.
