Bright Sword: Construction starts from southeastern Shanxi

"As for the designation, let's just call it the New 1st Regiment. Wait until Li Yunlong develops the unit. If it's good, it will be directly under the brigade headquarters. If not, we can give it the designation of the 85th Regiment."

As Zeng Jiwen finished talking about the new organization of the troops, everyone began to discuss it.

"That's right, Brigade Commander. This is a good idea." Zhou Xi and Wang Zhuo agreed. After everyone agreed, after much discussion, they finally came up with a list of military commanders for each local regiment.

The 120th Regiment was headed by Xie Genfa and had its political commissar Xu Disheng;

The 121st Regiment's commander is Long Zhenwen, and its political commissar is Jiang Depi;

Ding Wei, commander of the 122nd Regiment, and Liao Dengqing, political commissar;

The commander of the 123rd Regiment was Cheng Kang, and the political commissar was Yi Dangping;

Li Guozhu, commander of the 124th Regiment, and Liu Dalan, political commissar;

Deng Wenyu, commander of the 125th Regiment, and Huang Chixiong, political commissar;

Liu Ruilong, commander of the 126th Regiment, and Cai Zhong, political commissar;

The 127th Regiment's commander was Kong Jie, and its political commissar was Li Wenying;

The commander of the 128th Regiment was Yuan Yongqing, and the political commissar was Xiao Rongdai.

Afterwards, they began to discuss the formation and management of the border government. Zeng Jiwen planned to hold public trials and sentence and deal with all the evil landlords, ruffians, scoundrels and traitors in the jurisdiction, except for the bandits mentioned earlier.

Those who can carry out the land revolution should resolutely carry out the land revolution. Where it is really impossible, a rent and interest reduction campaign should be carried out, and these people should be persuaded to participate in the small light industries planned in the border areas. Finally, if there are those who are really unwilling, then sorry, they should be sent away with courtesy and must not be allowed to stay in the base area.

Subsequently, each main regiment was assigned its own defense zone. The 80th Regiment was located in Xiyang, the 81st Regiment was moved to a new base in Lincheng to help local construction work, the 82nd Regiment was located in Yushe, and the 83rd Regiment was located in Xingtai.

Afterwards, after everyone reached a unanimous agreement, they sent the content of the discussion to the Eighth Route Army Headquarters and northern Shaanxi.

Soon, the Eighth Route Army headquarters was located in the Hongdong area of ​​Qinyuan.

"Deputy Commander, Zeng Jiwen and his team sent a telegram saying that they have made rapid progress in the past month." The deputy chief of staff said to the deputy commander and the division commander with a smile while holding the telegram.

"Oh, it seems that Zeng and his team are doing well, judging from your expression." The deputy commander stood up and said with a smile.

"Guess what they said this time?" The deputy chief of staff looked mysterious.

"No matter what you said, you can't ask us for support." The deputy commander looked unhappy.

"Everyone in the Eighth Route Army knows that Zeng Jiwen is now very rich. Old Chen used the equipment replaced by the 389th Brigade to form several regiments." The division commander said with a smile.

"Hahaha, that's right. Last time, they completely wiped out the 79th Regiment. The guy in Nanjing just waved his hand and approved 2000 rifles for the 389th Brigade in one go. We're really jealous of him."

"It seems that Zeng Jiwen expanded the organization a little too quickly. He used to be very disdainful of this batch of guns, saying that if they were to be used, they should be the ones captured from the Japanese army. This time, he didn't even give them to the headquarters." The deputy commander said as he thought of this.

"Haha, deputy commander, you guessed right. Here, take a look. Zeng Jiwen really gave us a big surprise." The deputy chief of staff smiled and handed the telegram over.

The deputy commander looked at the telegram sent by Zeng Jiwen with a look of surprise.

"My goodness, Zeng Jiwen is really going to the sky. He asked me for more than a hundred regiment numbers, and it hasn't been long since then, but he has already used up more than a dozen of them. If we give him three years, he will really use them all." The deputy commander said in surprise.

"Let me see." The division commander took the telegram. "Crack down on the local tycoons. We all know Zeng Jiwen got rich a while ago, but we didn't expect his growth to be so rapid. We're all embarrassed."

The deputy staff officer continued, "Also, look at what Zeng Jiwen and his team are doing with the construction of the base. We only had a rough idea before, but this time they've helped us solve this problem."

"Yes, it is true. It's Zeng Jiwen. This guy thinks three steps ahead. Letting him stay in the Xiyang area has a surprisingly good effect." The deputy commander agreed.
