War of Resistance

Chapter 544 Expanding the army again?

Touching his head that was about to faint, Zhang Tianhai's mind was spinning rapidly. He had to think of a way to properly resolve the misunderstanding.

Although Zhang Tianhai didn't want to do this thing, it was also done by his subordinates. It was purely yellow mud falling on his crotch—it was either shit or shit.

"What, old Gu, when you took these backbones away, did you tell those who received the troops?" Zhang Tianhai asked Gu Shi'an, as if he was very worried.

Gu Shi'an glared at Zhang Tianhai and said, "How is it possible? I'm not stupid. I just told them that our army is all recruits and has not undergone any formal training, so the combat effectiveness is relative. Poor ones. Make them understand."

After hearing this answer, Zhang Tianhai finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked again: "Then what is the current situation?"

I saw Gu Shi'an chuckled and said: "The backbone of the troops I brought back from the First Regiment of Xuzhou City Defense, I let them follow the first battalion commander Li Chunfei to act temporarily. I also reported this matter to Chief of Staff Guo, and he also Let me do it."

After hearing the news, Zhang Tianhai breathed a long sigh of relief, and said: "No matter what you say now, it has already happened. Even if Mr. Xu and the others want to scold me, then I can't bear the scolding in vain. Come on, let this backbone team follow the first battalion to act! Wait until the Kaifeng side settles down, and then make arrangements for rectification!"

"That's right, if it comes, it will be safe. Besides, our troops have now reached the territory of the first war zone. If Chief Li and Chief Xu want to scold us, there is nothing we can do about it." Gu Shianyi Said with a rascal face.

"Okay, okay, I know you have an idea, don't make this kind of trouble again next time, after all, you should let me take the responsibility." Zhang Tianhai said helplessly, "Don't make an example."

"Okay, if I still cheat you like this next time, you can just use my military law to do it. Hehe." Gu Shi'an's tricks are very bright, and Zhang Tianhai is the kind of guy who gets cheap and acts good people.

How could anyone not like such a good thing?
It is precisely because of this that Gu Shi'an has a feeling of fearlessness.

When the sky fell, there was a tall person to support him, let alone Zhang Tianhai, who was not only tall, but also had a high position.

From the perspective of taking care of Shi'an, Zhang Tianhai's regiment leader is quite powerful, and there are so many officers who are optimistic about it. If nothing goes wrong, he must have a bright future.

Therefore, Gu Shi'an also believed that there was no reason for Zhang Tianhai to be unjust about such a small issue, it just depends on what he thinks.

Of course, Zhang Tianhai didn't know Gu Shi'an's thoughts, he just thought about how to arrange the two hundred backbones next.

Is it really necessary to arrange them all into the spy company?Then wouldn't the spy company become a spy battalion?A very ridiculous idea suddenly flashed in Zhang Tianhai's head.

But soon, Zhang Tianhai will forget this idea. The spy company is a sharp knife, and the sharp knife must be sharp and light to be as expected, but it will be invincible.

If the spy company is turned into a spy battalion, wouldn't that just increase the number of people in this organization?
But not to mention the increase in the number of people in this organization, more importantly, isn't this going to turn the sharp knife of the spy company into a main battalion like the first battalion and the second battalion?
Zhang Tianhai would never allow such a change in the nature of the secret service company, because the mission of the secret service company was doomed from the very beginning.

Therefore, Zhang Tianhai was unwilling to change the nature of the spy company into the nature of the main infantry battalion. The key was that it had been expanded, and there was no one equipped with the main infantry battalion.

Therefore, Zhang Tianhai set his sights on the units directly under the regiment headquarters, but after screening them one by one, he found that the status of each unit was full.

In the end, only Xu Sangou's guard platoon came into Zhang Tianhai's sight.

The guard platoon has a small establishment, but the guard tasks are not light, so Zhang Tianhai is already considering whether to expand the guard platoon into a guard company.

Zhang Tianhai thought again and again, where did the equipment of the guard company come from?Do we want to continue to equip the Mauser 1924 rifles in active service with the national army, or equip them with the [-] big covers they brought from the First Regiment of Xuzhou City Defense?
Or, maintain the status quo?
All kinds of thoughts flashed through Zhang Tianhai's mind, but no matter whether it was all equipped with small Japanese 19244 cover, or all equipped with German-made [-] rifles, the first regiment directly under the third theater did not have that ability. Dress up.

So the best result is to maintain the status quo, but it is still necessary to expand the guard platoon into a guard company.

Although it is said that if the enemy hits the regiment headquarters, then everything will be lost in this battle, but if there are more people, the enemy may not be beaten to the regiment headquarters, or this guard company is the last one to crush the camel Where is the straw?

In a flash of thought, Gu Shi'an, the more than 200 officers and soldiers brought back from the First Regiment of Xuzhou City Defense, was found.

As for the issue of food and wages, at worst, I will send a report to Chief He. You must know that not only Chief He turned a blind eye to the expansion of the Central Army’s direct line troops, but even Chairman Chiang Kai-shek and Chairman Jiang did the same. It was precisely because of this that Zhang Tianhai didn't have too many worries.

Under normal circumstances, military expansion is not considered first, but if you have troops, weapons and equipment, and ask the central government for a little food and salary, the central government has no reason to refuse.

After all, this way of expanding the army is less worrying and labor-intensive. At the very least, the central government doesn’t need to expand the army for you.

What's more, the combat effectiveness of the unit directly under the first regiment in the third theater is not bad. What if it is because of expansion, and then won a few more victories?Who can say for sure?
The train slowly drove to Kaifeng. Looking back at the first regiment directly under the third theater of Tianhai, since the founding of the army, the number of people has been continuously expanding. It has expanded to a scale of more than 600 people. The scale of more than 200 people is really embarrassing: Zhang Tianhai is really good at expanding the army.

But who knew that Zhang Tianhai's army expansion was always completed inadvertently, a little here, a little more there, and it expanded to such a large scale inadvertently.

Even Zhang Tianhai himself felt a little stunned: I don’t know if it’s not counted. This number is shocking. There are more than 200 people, which already surpassed the strength of a regiment of the Japanese army. , I am afraid that they will be able to fight with a regiment of the Japanese army.

Of course, it's one thing to have a fight, and another to be able to do it.

Well, Zhaozhi Yituan's current state is definitely unbeatable, at most it can barely hold on without collapsing.
