In the early years, this military camp in Yangqu County was a large barracks that could accommodate tens of thousands of people. Later, it was stationed by the Independent Brigade, a direct descendant of the Marshal. Now, the Marshal has exchanged the locations of the Independent Brigade and the Taiyuan Guard Brigade. Here will be
Become the camp and training ground for the new model brigade.
Since the model brigade led by Zhao Changshu was about to undergo a series of expansion and training, Zhao Changshu was no longer suitable to concurrently serve as the Taiyuan garrison commander. The commander-in-chief appointed Brigadier Cui of the Independent Brigade as the new Taiyuan garrison commander, and the independent brigade naturally became the new Taiyuan garrison commander.
It became the Taiyuan Security Brigade.
It’s funny to say that Brigadier Cui and Zhao Changshu of the Independent Brigade are both newly emerged confidants of the Marshal. The Guard Brigade and the Independent Brigade have always been in a competitive relationship. Naturally, the two brigade commanders dislike each other. It was Zhao Changshu who took the lead before.
, was appointed as the Taiyuan garrison commander before the commander-in-chief left the field. This Brigadier Cui had long had a sense of injustice.
It's fine now. From Brigadier Cui's point of view, Zhao Changshu must have lost power in front of the commander. The tide has turned, and it's finally his turn to be famous. When Zhao Changshu handed over the military camp, some villains couldn't help but sneered at Zhao Changshu.
Ichiban.
How could Zhao Changshu have the time to argue with these people now? Now he was really proud of himself. He could finally stretch his ambitions, and his dream of fighting the Japanese invaders was about to come true. All he had to do was raise his arms and cheer.
The commander-in-chief also had some considerations in moving the military camp of the model brigade to Yangqu. One reason is that transportation is convenient, and large quantities of materials and equipment can be transported quickly by railway. The other reason is that it is relatively secretive. The weapons and equipment purchased from abroad can be transported by the Tongpu Line.
Or the Zhengtai Line can just unload the goods directly at Yangqu without entering Taiyuan City, so as not to attract the attention of all parties.
Another important reason is that when the Great Wall Anti-Japanese War begins, the troops can quietly set off to any small station and get on the train to go north, which is conducive to military confidentiality.
Even Zhou Wen couldn't help but admire the commander's foresight after seeing this military camp. He is indeed an old fox! And although the model brigade is training, it can also play a role in protecting Taiyuan.
This military camp covers a large area. The fence of the military camp stretches for more than ten miles. A small river runs through the middle of the military camp. There are thousands of ready-made barracks inside, which can be easily repaired and accommodated. There is also a super building on the side of the mountain.
The large training ground is also divided into areas for artillery and infantry, and there is even a large cavalry training ground.
After reading this, Zhou Wen had to admit that the foundations developed by these great warlords over decades were beyond comparison with his own. Some things could not be bought with money, but were accumulated over time.
For example, this military camp must have gone through countless years of development and continuous expansion to reach the scale it is today. Compared with the training ground of the mercenary regiment in Qinghetan, it is just a younger brother.
Of course, this only refers to the infrastructure and land area. In terms of training facilities, Qinghetan Training Ground is the older brother.
So Zhou Wen's first task when he came to Yangqu Military Camp was to build more complete training facilities and venues. Anyway, the place was big enough, so he brought all the mercenary regiments here. The first training subject was civil engineering work, which should be repaired.
Repair, build what should be built. The two troops went into battle together, and by the way, they also cultivated each other's brotherly feelings. Why not do it.
Zhao Changshu raised his hands in approval. He now wished he could hang out with the mercenary group every day. He was truly impressed by his junior disciple. Zhao Changshu admitted that he could not fight against the wonderful battles on the Songhu battlefield. He could not fight.
Just study hard. This is the true thought of Zhao Changshu, a heroic man. He has no objection to this junior taking over the command of the entire army as soon as he comes. Anyway, as long as he can lead his brothers to the battlefield to fight the Japanese, what do you want, junior?
Whatever you do.
Zhou Wen had no intention of overstepping his authority, but since it was training, he had to establish authority first. To this end, after discussing with Zhao Changshu, he established a joint command headquarters in the military camp to be responsible for all aspects of the training and future battles between the two armies.
affairs.
The commander-in-chief of the joint command is naturally Zhao Changshu, the deputy commander-in-chief is Zhou Wen, the chief of staff Zhu Jiang (the new chief of staff of the model brigade), and the deputy chief of staff Meng Yuting. It can be seen that Zhou Wen still pays attention to the emotions of the officers and soldiers of the model brigade, but he cannot come up
Just to let others be suspicious, Zhou Wen believed that Zhao Changshu didn't have any intentions, but it was hard to say for the officers under him.
The current Yangqu Military Camp is a large construction site. People and tens of thousands of officers and soldiers recruited from nearby villages are working hard to build it. Various materials are constantly being transported in from Yangqu Station. It will become a model brigade of the Jin Army. More than 9,000 officers and soldiers and
The new home for more than a thousand brothers of the mercenary group in the next six months.
Just when Zhou Wen was too busy to touch the ground, the soldiers at the gate of the military camp called the headquarters and said that a clerk from Fuyuan Store in Yangqu County was leading someone outside the military camp to see Zhou Wen.
Zhou Wen became anxious when he heard this. People from Fuyuan Store came to find him. Did something happen to his father?
After Zhou Wen came back from Nanjing, he only returned home once. Since he was about to go to the front line again, he did not dare to stay at home longer for fear that his father would see any signs, so as not to worry the old man.
He learned from the big shopkeeper, Uncle Lin, that since he went to the Songhu front line, his father Zhou Jinghai has been very concerned about current affairs. He even sold a radio and listened to the radio broadcasts about the Songhu battlefield every day when he had nothing to do.
The old shopkeeper of Taiyuan Fuyuan Store collected Taiyuan's daily newspapers and sent them to Lishi.
Zhou Wen did not dare to tell his father that he had created those glorious victories that were written about in newspapers. He only said that he was mainly responsible for protecting the safety of the headquarters and basically did not fight much.
However, he knew that paper could not stop the fire. Those brothers under him who had made meritorious service and returned home to visit relatives would not proudly brag a few words, and who would not share their honors and military exploits with their family and friends. In addition, in order to boost morale,
Fuyuan stores in various counties also beat gongs and drums to announce the good news to the military families. As the big owner of Fuyuan store, how could Zhou Jinghai not know?
Although the old father didn't say it to his face, how could he not see the deep love and reluctance in his weathered eyes?
At that time, I was thinking that when the Great Wall Anti-Japanese War was over, I would hurry up and pursue Liu Ruolan. As long as Liu Ruolan was willing, Zhou Wen was not worried about any sectarian opinions. If the Liu family did not agree, I would cook the rice before making a baby.
, at least let the old father have some thoughts, right?
However, Zhou Wen hurried to the gate of the military camp and saw two people squatting beside the sandbags of the sentry in the dust of the cars. Zhou Wen was stunned when he saw it. How could a shameless Lao Qiao come to the door?
Damn it, I can't hide from you even if I hide in the military camp. How can you be patient enough to even come to the military camp?
