Zhou Weiguo led everyone and looked at the nearby map. After sending Liu Yuan and others away, he had already begun to think about this era. If Mr. Zhou really followed what Mr. Zhou said, his steel plant with an annual output of 100,000 tons would
, has really become the most important weapon of the country today. Originally, he did not understand some things, including the steel production of this era, etc., he just took it for granted. However, he is very short of people now. If someone can
He and Gu Feiyan are the only people who can help him take care of the shop in Qingdao and can speak Japanese fluently without being spotted. Now in his independent division, he and Gu Feiyan are the only ones. But Gu Feiyan will not do this for him.
Yes, Gu Feiyan's ambition is on the battlefield. Before the reorganization, Zhou Weiguo wanted to put him out as the leader, but Gu Feiyan was unwilling.
"Brothers, we have been in Laiyang for more than half a month now. Tell us, what do you think?" Zhou Weiguo said immediately.
Everyone said nothing and looked at each other. When Zhu Ziming saw this, he smiled and said, "In this case, I will be the one who stands out first."
Zhou Weiguo also smiled and said, "Brother, tell me."
"Brother, now we are still recruiting troops, and our stalls are getting bigger and bigger." Zhu Ziming paused and said, "We are all bandits. To be honest, apart from being able to fight,
, fight the Japanese, we don’t know how to do anything else. I feel a little embarrassed to be in a high position at this time."
"Brother, you are wrong." Zhou Weiguo said that he did not bring the Second Brigade to Laiyang, which seemed to have given some people from Qingfeng Village some ideas, "I was more than 30 people at the time, and I went to Qingfeng Village.
Just ask, am I the second in charge of Qingfeng Village?"
"Of course it is! Who dares to say that it wasn't me who shot him." Zhu Ziming said immediately.
"So, just fight the Japanese with peace of mind." Zhou Weiguo smiled, "I take care of everything else. What's more, the development of our independent division is indispensable to all our brothers. As long as everyone abides by the law and maintains discipline, that's all. Don't worry.
others."
"Hey." Zhu Ziming sighed, nodded, and then said, "In this case, I will work hard to recruit people."
"That's right." Zhou Weiguo said.
Afterwards, Fang Shengli stood up and said, "Okay, let me first report on the current situation of each brigade of our independent division and the troops directly under the division headquarters."
Zhou Weiguo nodded.
"Today, our independent division has a total of 45,864 combat personnel and 10,019 non-combatants. Among them, there are 30 special operations teams directly under the division headquarters, and a total of 1,598 personnel in the division headquarters guard corps, including 1,568 combat personnel and 30 non-combatants. 1
The first brigade and regiment have a total of 3,670 people, including 3,265 combat personnel and 405 non-combatants; the first brigade and second regiment have 3,289 combat personnel and 421 non-combatants; the first brigade and third regiment have 3,286 combat personnel and 412 non-combatants;
The first brigade and regiment have 4,506 combat personnel and 560 non-combat personnel; the second brigade and second regiment have 4,863 combat personnel and 589 non-combat personnel; the second brigade and third regiment have 4,306 combat personnel and 521 non-combat personnel; the third brigade and one regiment have 4,632 combat personnel.
There are 589 non-combatants; the third brigade and the second regiment have 4,895 combat personnel and 620 non-combatants; the third brigade and the third regiment have 4,635 combat personnel and 562 non-combatants; the artillery battalion has 2,500 combat personnel and 1,250 non-combatants;
The cavalry battalion has 1,689 combat personnel and 360 non-combatants; the communications battalion and the special agent battalion have 800 combat personnel and 100 non-combatants; the transport battalion has 1,600 combat personnel and 3,600 non-combatants." Fang Shengli read out a long list of numbers.
, then looked at Zhou Weiguo and said, "Currently, each brigade and regiment has nearly doubled its strength. Please give instructions from the commander."
Zhou Weiguo nodded and said, "Establish a reserve brigade. From now on, all newly recruited soldiers will be reserve brigade soldiers. After training, they will serve as additional soldiers for other combat brigades. The reserve brigade commander is Xu Hu, and the former deputy brigade commander of the second brigade is Morita.
Take over. Morita will still serve as the commander of the second brigade and the second regiment. Each brigade and regiment shall not increase the number of soldiers based on today's combat personnel."
"yes!"
Zhou Weiguo nodded, and then said, "Now the new soldiers in each brigade and regiment must be separated from the old soldiers and given adequate training. If I find out who sent the new soldiers to the battlefield, don't blame me for being rude.
. Your life is life, and the life of soldiers is also life. If you let them go to the battlefield without training, you will risk their lives."
"yes!"
"The artillery battalion was changed to the artillery regiment, the transportation battalion was changed to the transportation regiment, and the rest of the organization remained unchanged." Zhou Weiguo said again, how can there be a battalion with three or four thousand people? He originally said that he is not afraid of insufficient equipment, but only afraid of insufficient people.
He was telling several infantry brigades, but he didn't expect that the artillery battalions and other directly affiliated units would also be recruiting people aggressively, which caught him off guard.
"Report!" Wang Chao stood up, saluted Zhou Weiguo, and said, "I humbly request that the cavalry battalion be changed into a cavalry regiment."
Zhou Weiguo shook his head and said, "The cavalry battalion is not allowed to expand its enrollment and maintain its current organizational structure."
"Yes!" Wang Chao immediately sat down, feeling helpless.
"It's not that I won't let you change to a regiment, but in modern warfare, the cavalry has gradually transformed into armored troops." Zhou Weiguo shook his head, "Now, I order the cavalry battalion to carry out training while maintaining the current training.
Armored vehicle training.”
"Yes!" Wang Chao stood up, saluted, and sat down with a smile.
"When the training is complete, I will change it into a tank regiment for you."
"yes!"
"Report!" Xiao Ya stood up and saluted Zhou Weiguo.
Zhou Weiguo smiled helplessly, and then said, "Say."
"Reporting to the commander, our rescue team has now expanded in number. Please reorganize it."
"Then it will be changed to the medical brigade, and Xiao Ya will be the captain."
"yes!"
"Does anyone else have any opinions?"
Everyone shook their heads.
"In this case, let's talk about the next expansion plan." Zhou Weiguo picked up a small wooden stick, pointed at the map, and said, "Now we have completely controlled the Laiyang area and the surrounding areas of Qingfeng Village. Our soldiers
The number is constantly rising, and just one Laiyang County town has already restricted our development."
"So, our topic today is, where should our independent division develop in the next step? There are currently three backup plans, one, to develop to Laixi County in the west; two, to develop to Haiyang County in the east; and three,
, to develop towards Qixia City in the north. Each of the three plans has its own advantages and disadvantages. Everyone can tell us which way to go."
After Zhou Weiguo finished speaking, everyone began to think.
"I suggest developing in the direction of Haiyang." Zhang Ruikuan stood up first and said, "If we control the direction of Haiyang, we will have a safe outlet to the sea, which will be very beneficial to our economic development."
Zhou Weiguo nodded and said nothing.
"I think it would be better to develop in Laixi or Qixia." Fang Shengli stood up and said, "Now our division has barely enough soldiers who can speak Japanese to be used in Laiyang. Haiyang is a port county. If we control Haiyang
, the chances of exposure will be greater.”
Zhou Weiguo also nodded and continued to look at everyone. Seeing that no one stood up to speak anymore, he said, "Next, we will develop towards Laixi, but how to control Laixi in a low-key manner needs to be improved. Let's discuss it."
