There was a war.

This is Zhou Weiguo’s idea.

Ono's idea was more direct. This time, there was money to be made.

Zhou Weiguo took Xu Hu to the division headquarters. As soon as he entered the division headquarters, he realized something was wrong.

The 58th Division was composed of two brigades, four regiments and an independent battalion. I was a major, and the others were colonels and major generals. But today, there were four major generals and eight colonels, and one was at the same level as Division Commander Yu.

"What is this?" Zhou Weiguo habitually took out a cigarette and gave it to the adjutant of Division Commander Yu next to him; "Why are there so many big shots?"

The adjutant took the cigarette, lit it and took a puff. "The situation is unstable. The Japanese army has more and more troops. It is no longer appropriate to mobilize them at the division level. Therefore, Nanjing has merged us with the 51st Division from Baoji into the 74th Army, with the division commander as the army commander. Now, it is a temporary meeting of the two divisions.

After the reorganization, the Tiger Army that frightened the Japanese army appeared. However, he is not very famous now. His real famous battle should be the bloody battle between General Xue of the Ninth War Zone and General Okamura, Anami Korechika and others.

"Zhou Weiguo." Commander Yu's voice made Zhou Weiguo stand up immediately and answer; "Here."

Yu, the division commander. No, now he should be called the military commander. He motioned Zhou Weiguo to come to him, then handed him a letter of appointment and said, "My division and the 51st division will be reorganized into an army, and your independent battalion will be immediately reorganized into an independent regiment under the command of the military headquarters. Your original troops will be reorganized into a battalion and a special agent company. The military headquarters has mobilized two battalions of troops and they will enter your unit immediately."

Zhou Weiguo glanced at the appointment letter. His rank was immediately promoted to colonel, and Fang Shengli to lieutenant colonel.

He took the document and stretched out his neck. "Commander, those are the weapons of our independent regiment."

"I can only equip you with rifles."

What?

Zhou Weiguo's mind was buzzing. He only equipped his own troops with rifles. Why? He was a regiment after all, and the other two battalions were equipped with rifles. They didn't even give them machine guns.

"What's that look? Don't think I don't know you don't have any. Xiao Ye pushed two infantry guns to sell yesterday."

Ha ha……

The commander of the 51st Division, Wang, who was standing nearby, clicked his tongue and said, "Come to think of it, you guys tricked me into buying a lot of stuff. This money..."

Don't even think about getting a refund, the money has already been spent. Zhou Weiguo quickly said, "Captain Wang, we don't accept returns on goods, and we won't refund."

Commander Wang fiddled with his fingernails and didn't say anything. To be honest, he bought those things and the military commander in front of him was also an accomplice. Should he ask him to pay back the money?

Forget it, from now on, it’s all a system, let’s just forget about the past.

General Yu didn't want to say anything about this matter. He waved his hand and said, "Go back quickly. Your troops are estimated to have arrived. They will be able to form combat effectiveness within a week."

It might be difficult to form combat effectiveness in one week. After all, their previous training methods were completely different from their original strength.

"Sir, this isn't..."

"Military orders are as heavy as a mountain, military law is ruthless, and the 74th Army's first battle will be fought by you. If we lose our men, you know what to do."

General Yu used military law as an excuse.

Zhou Weiguo didn't care about military law at all. He lowered his head and thought for a while; "Then the supplies I seized in the next few battles..."

"I don't want it. I'll give you some more." General Yu waved his hand. "Get out of here."

Division Commander Wang was not familiar with the former independent battalion and the current independent regiment. When he heard that this newly formed regiment was asked to fight the first battle, he was a little worried. "Commander, his regiment was just formed, and the two battalions were also transferred from the rear. If they were to fight the first battle and lose, it would be disadvantageous to our army."

Several armies have been formed this time, and everyone is holding their breath, ready to perform well. Isn't it too risky for the commander to do this?

“There’s no one better suited than him.”

General Yu narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhou Weiguo who was leaving on a motorcycle.

Commander Wang still didn't understand. Deputy Commander Feng, who was about to become the acting commander, lowered his voice and said, "He now has four tanks, a reorganized 75th field artillery battalion, and an anti-aircraft machine gun company."

Commander Wang stopped talking.

Comparing yourself to others will only make you feel unhappy. He now only has one artillery company, and he bought a few artillery pieces from the independent battalion, but it is an independent regiment.

"They stole it." Deputy Commander Feng stabbed him again.

The independent regiment was established. The two battalion commanders who came later soon met Zhou Weiguo. These were all organized troops drawn from Nanjing. Zhou Weiguo had no way to disperse them.

He and Fang Shengli thought about it and organized the 2nd, 3rd and 4th companies into a battalion, with Liu Jun as the battalion commander, Wang Hailong as the second battalion commander, and Pang Deyun as the third battalion commander. The commanders of the anti-aircraft machine gun company and the artillery company remained unchanged. The medical platoon was expanded to a medical company.

The first company was changed into a special forces company, equipped with motorcycles, trucks and tanks, with a number of troops equivalent to two companies. Xu Hu was appointed as the company commander.

The two companies of the first battalion went to the other two battalions for training as soon as possible. Zhou Weiguo and Fang Shengli each went to one battalion to strengthen their training and prepare for combat.

Ono took over the Quartermaster Department, but he was just a figurehead. He was mainly interested in selling arms and didn't worry about anything else.

While Zhou Weiguo and others were training, he was not idle either. He wandered around to solicit business and orders.

Ono hurried to the Second Battalion today and found Zhou Weiguo who was explaining the three-three system to the Second Battalion Commander Wang Hailong.

"Please challenge me, Old Zhou." Ono said straight to the point as he sat down next to him.

Zhou Weiguo glanced at him and asked in confusion, "Why?"

Why? Because the order is full and I have already collected the deposit.

He calmly took out a small notebook.

"The Sichuan Army ordered 500 Type 38 rifles, five mortars, two infantry guns, five Type 99 light machine guns, a radio station, and a lot of helmets. I went to persuade the Gui Army, and they asked for two infantry guns and two trucks. In addition, the Central Army..."

"Shut up." Zhou Weiguo's head was buzzing. This bastard is really daring. Now only one battalion of the independent battalion has combat effectiveness. The second and third battalions are just theoretical knowledge, and they are just new recruits.

This bastard actually ordered so many. This... Damn, a brigade is not enough to meet the demand for this battle. At least find a regiment.

A wing. Holy shit. This is killing me.

Ono was stunned, then took a deep breath; "I can't shut my mouth. I don't care, you have to find a way."

"Don't mess around. We haven't formed combat effectiveness yet." Zhou Weiguo rubbed his throbbing temple. This bastard was even picking a fight with him. Didn't he know that he was their superior?

Ono spread his hands and said, "I'm not kidding, but you have to do this. I'm short of money."
