Bai Shujie didn't make any opening remarks. When he saw all the staff, he started to ask questions: "Xian Yu Tongwu, how is your Korean People's Liberation Army doing now? Tell everyone about the specific situation."

It was the first time for Xianyu Tongwu to participate in such a large-scale military meeting, and he felt a little overwhelmed.Although he is older than many people, he has the lowest qualifications, so he is very careful when speaking:

"The Korean People's Liberation Army, after a year and a half of recruiting and training, is now initially equipped with combat effectiveness. It is the first division of Xu Sanjiang and the second division of Cui Mingzhe, with a total of more than 33000 people; the female division has more than 35000 people, and the elder sister, Mr. Han, presides over it. It is mainly responsible for the security and garrison tasks of the counties.”

"There are also three supplementary divisions, with a total of more than 50000 people. They have just completed basic training such as military regulations, military discipline, queue rules, zip marching, running, jumping, rolling and climbing. They only fired guns half a month ago and began to explain the maintenance of various equipment. And combat effectiveness, live ammunition training has not yet been conducted, let alone tactical training.”

"There are two divisions, it's okay! The environment we are facing is dangerous, and the training of recruits cannot be relaxed, and needs to be further strengthened. Although there is no need to participate in front-line battles, it is still possible to undertake some work to stabilize social order." Bai Shujie nodded slightly, Then he said: "Big Brother, how is your International Legion doing now?"

Zhang Xiang finally put away his dry pipe, and he didn't know what happened, the little devil had a lot of cigarettes, but he just didn't like it.He always wears a dry pipe in his waist, and Zhao Jinxi has to lose it to him several times.

"It looks like this." Zhang Xiang spoke slowly: "The military qualities of the Jewish people are very good, but they have never fought. There are now two divisions with a total of more than 5 people, including 13000 of ours. If According to our standards, it can probably undertake second-line defense tasks. If it goes through one or two bloody battles, it might be an iron army."

Bai Shujie nodded: "That is to say, we now have more than 33000 troops from the Korean People's Liberation Army and more than 50000 from the International Corps. That's equivalent to [-] reserves. That's fine!"

"Everyone, the international situation has been turned upside down recently, and sparks are flying everywhere. The German mustaches in Europe have successively occupied Austria and Czechoslovakia. Now they are in the limelight, and they don't pay attention to the whole world, but it has nothing to do with us. "

"Someone Jiang didn't find a fighter in Xuzhou, and he didn't stop the little devil when he dug the Yellow River embankment, so he lost Wuhan. Two months ago, that is, in May, he launched a hasty counterattack in Nanchang. The command system became more chaotic, and the troops were deployed. It was even more messy. As a result, not only did Nanchang not be recovered, but troops were lost.”

"Fortunately, the Eighth Route Army took the initiative by surprise and killed Lieutenant General Norihide Abe, the hopeful star of the Army, which finally gave the Chinese some face. The little devil stabilized the front line in Wuhan and began to expand his ambitions again. In the corner of Nuomenkan in the northwest of Manchuria, we fought with the Soviet Red Army."

"Now, the main force of the Little Devils 19st Division on the north bank of the Yalu River has fully reinforced Nuomenkan, and the pressure on our north is temporarily relieved. Now the 19th Division in the northeast is alone, which is a good time for us to attack. If we eat Losing the [-]th Division here will be good for our future development."

"Therefore, I ordered: the first division of Xu Sanjiang of the Korean People's Liberation Army, on the basis of the existing defensive front, fully take over all the defensive positions of Liu Zhiliang, the third division of Feilong; Take over all the positions of Wei Chong, the fourth division of Feilong."
