Quartermasters can also fight the devils

When Zhang Wenwu heard Wang Gui's polite voice, he couldn't help but curse in his heart: How hypocritical, and he's a soldier.

But on the surface, he remained calm. He still wanted to learn more about the actual situation of the troops before arriving at the local area. Only grassroots officers like Wang Gui knew the most about the real situation. If you want to see the formal archived report, then congratulations, everything is thriving and the combat power is boundless. Anyone who believes it is a fool.

"Brother Wang, I have just been assigned here, and I don't know much about our 102nd Division. You have been in the army for a long time, so can you tell me about it? It will be better for me to have a general idea in mind, so as to avoid any mistakes in doing things, which will delay the important matters of the superiors." Zhang Wenwu asked his question directly.

When Wang Gui heard what Zhang Wenwu said, he couldn't help but nodded and said, "Brother Zhang, what you said makes sense. It is indeed the case. Then I will tell you about it."

Wang Gui talked about whatever came to his mind. After Zhang Wenwu had fully summarized his thoughts, he had a preliminary understanding of the 102nd Division that was about to report.

Since last year, the Ministry of Military Affairs has begun to review and evaluate the national army, adjust and disband some of the troops that do not meet the rating standards, and then reorganize them uniformly. This not only weakens the power of local warlords, but also legitimately replenishes some available troops to the troops under the jurisdiction of the central government, thereby enhancing the strength of the central troops.

The newly formed 102nd Division is a reorganized unit after the disbanding and downsizing of various troops.

The troops were formed by a miscellaneous division in Hunan Province and a miscellaneous division in Hubei Province. After the old and weak were eliminated, they were mixed together to form two regiments, forming the 210th Brigade, which has the 655th and 656th Regiments under its jurisdiction. Another independent regiment was formed by a security regiment in Anhui Province and recruited new soldiers. There is also a special service battalion and various direct teams of the division headquarters. The officers of the original troops were basically forced to retire or transferred to other troops. The current officers are all drawn from various units of the th Army.

According to the requirements of the Ministry of Military Affairs, the 102nd Division is a Type B Division, which will be organized into a brigade and a regiment first, and then upgraded to a Type A Division as required after the personnel are supplemented. At present, the basic units of the th Army, the th Division and the th Division have basically completed the upgrade to the standard of adjustment division.

According to Wang Gui, the troops are currently understaffed, but he does not know the exact number. He has to ask the staff department under Chief of Staff Zhao to get the exact number. The only fully staffed unit in the division is the special forces battalion where Wang Gui is stationed. This was formed by drawing troops from various units of the 18th Army. Naturally, it is the best equipped and fastest-growing unit.

Well, Zhang Wenwu couldn't help but sigh inwardly. This is really a hodgepodge, like a super stock company. This patchwork unit has no combat effectiveness before it is sorted out. The only thing to be thankful for is that there is still a year before the war. As long as the higher-ups can operate faster, the unit can still be integrated. However, its combat effectiveness is definitely not as good as that of other brother units in the 18th Army. There is no other way. Time is limited.

After three hours of bumpy ride in the truck, Zhang Wenwu finally arrived at the headquarters of the 102nd Division. The headquarters was located in a large courtyard in the east of the city. After checking the documents at the gate, Wang Gui led Zhang Wenwu into a hall, saluted the colonel who was talking to someone, and said, "Report to the Chief of Staff, the newly assigned officers and subordinates have been picked up, and the guns issued by the military department have also been successfully transported back."

As soon as Zhang Wenwu heard this, he knew that the middle-aged man in front of him was one of his future superiors in the army, Chief of Staff Zhao Dong. He immediately stepped forward and saluted, saying, "Sir, I am Zhang Wenwu, and I have been ordered to report here. Please give me your instructions."

Zhao Dong looked at the young officer standing at attention and saluting, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly: "As expected of the old commander's younger brother, he is really a handsome man, but a little pale."

Zhao Dong first simply returned a salute to Wang Gui, and then ordered: "Okay, Captain Wang, thank you for your hard work. Take your men to move the guns down and put them in the warehouse first."

"Yes, I'll do it right away." Wang Gui saluted and left immediately after hearing the order. He also knew that the chief of staff would definitely have something to say to the new brother Zhang, which was not something he could care about.

Seeing Wang Gui leaving the hall, Zhao Dong turned around, looked at Zhang Wenwu with a smile and said, "Wenwu, relax, don't be nervous. The old boss has informed me about your matter. Don't worry, the old boss wants you to come to my side. That means he trusts me. Here, you can just do it boldly. I will cover everything for you." After saying this, he patted Zhang Wenwu on the shoulder.

Zhang Wenwu's mind was as clear as a mirror. He knew that the superiors could be kind to you, but you could not act on your own. Although you have your brother to protect you, it is better for you to get into less trouble.

But you can't not respond to your superior's kindness. When he shows you kindness, it's obvious that he wants you to pass on the message to your elder brother later. After hearing what Zhao Dong said, Zhang Wenwu's serious face immediately changed into a smile, and his body relaxed: "Chief of Staff, I used to hear my elder brother talk about you all the time, saying that you are a talented general. Before reporting here this time, my elder brother specifically asked me to take good care of you and follow you well. I'm sure you will have a bright future in the future." Zhang Wenwu also lied without thinking.

When Zhao Dong heard this, he thought, well, this younger brother of the old boss is very different from the old boss. He couldn't help but give a thumbs up in his heart, young man, you have a future.
