Bright Sword: Construction starts from southeastern Shanxi

Hearing this, several people were stunned for a moment.

"Oh, you guessed it?" asked the deputy commander.

Brigade Commander Chen nodded.

"Almost. I guess he has other weapons to replace the Su Jishi.

The Taihang Arsenal was located in his base.

The last time I went there, there was no problem with conventional weapons.

It has been more than half a year. I don't believe that he is still producing equipment for the Japanese army. I am afraid that there are other equipment to replace it.

And there are iron mines in Xingtai."

Hearing this, several people immediately reacted.

"I'm telling you, after what he did to me, I'm afraid he'll come back and ask me for something. I'm so nervous."

The deputy commander said with a smile.

After that, several people began to discuss how to distribute the equipment of these divisions.

At present, the Eighth Route Army troops in the entire North China, except for the Tainan Military Region.

The rest are northwestern Shanxi, Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei, central Henan, and Shandong.

In addition, there are the New Fourth Army in southern Anhui, and the remaining troops at home and in the northwest.

In the middle of last year, the Shanxi-Hebei-Shandong-Henan Military Region was established in North China. However, the situation changed dramatically as the troops of the Tainan and Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Regions inflicted heavy losses on the Japanese army in North China at the end of the year.

At the meeting last November, the family decided to divide the Northern Bureau into the Central Plains Bureau and the North China Bureau.

The task of the Central Plains Bureau was to establish bases in Shandong and Henan.

At the same time, since the Japanese army in North China was no longer able to launch a major war in the first half of this year, new decisions were made on the Shanxi-Hebei-Shandong-Henan Military Region after the meeting.

According to the resolution of the family meeting, the Central Plains Bureau established the Central Plains Military Region, under which the Ludi Military Region and the Yuzhong Military Region were established.

The Central Plains Bureau was headed by the former secretary of the Northern Bureau, the commander of the Central Plains Military Region was Commander Liu, and the political commissar of the division was the political commissar of the military region.

As for the affairs of the North China Bureau, they were handled by Zeng Jiwen and Zhou Shi.

The North China Military Region was established under the North China Bureau, with Zeng Jiwen as the commander and Zhou Shi as the political commissar.

It includes three military regions: Southeast Shanxi, Central Hebei, and Southern Hebei.

As for the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei and Northwest Shanxi Military Regions, they were directly under the jurisdiction of the family, while the local areas were under the responsibility of the North China Bureau.

Because in addition to being responsible for northwest Shanxi, the Northwest Shanxi Military Region is also responsible for the defense of the south, and the task of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region is mainly to rely on the Beiyue District to develop to Rehe, Chahar and other places in the north.

The entire organizational structure will be adjusted within this year.

Therefore, the five infantry divisions supporting from the north this time are equipped with equipment from Tainan, Southern Anhui, Jiajia and Northwest.

It is mainly equipped with the Central Plains Military Region, the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region and the Northwest Shanxi Military Region.

As for the southern Anhui, due to the difficulty in equipment support, the family has decided to let them start developing towards the north bank of the Yangtze River.

After discussion, the deputy commander and others decided to allocate the equipment of an infantry division to the Northwest Shanxi Military Region.

Two in the Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region and two in the Central Plains Military Region.

Zeng Jiwen placed the supporting mechanized brigade in Yulin for training.

As for the army south of Yulin, they had driven out the army that would later become the King of the Northwest when Zeng Jiwen was clearing out the Qing Ma.

After discussing the distribution situation, Chen Shukang looked at the document and said to several people.

“Now he is a wealthy man, and even Master Su looks down on him.

Now it's time to play with the tank unit.

It makes me jealous.”

Hearing this, the deputy chief of staff said to him.

"If you're envious, you can take advantage of the fact that you're still in Taiyue. When Zeng Jiwen comes back one day, you can ask him for a motorized infantry battalion."

At this time, Commander Liu was also fanning the flames.

"If you don't know the organization of the mechanized brigade he wants, I can tell you."

Hearing this, Chen Shukang's interest immediately piqued.

So Commander Liu began to tell a few people the differences between the tank brigade and the mechanized brigade in the north.

If it is an ordinary tank brigade, in addition to communication and logistics troops, it mainly consists of three tank battalions and one motorized infantry battalion.

The main task is to use it for assault operations and break through the enemy's defense lines. The entire brigade contains about 60-65 tanks.

The mechanized brigade added a motorized infantry battalion, increasing the number of motorized infantry battalions in the original tank brigade to three and reducing the tank battalion to one.

At the same time, the artillery company of the original tank brigade was replaced with a self-propelled artillery battalion and a regular artillery battalion, increasing the artillery strike capability of the entire brigade.

The main task is to rely on a large number of trucks and armored personnel carriers to carry out comprehensive independent operations, mainly used to defend a solid defense line.

Hearing this, Chen Shukang immediately became envious.

Then he thought of something and said it unhappily.

"Where would I get the technical troops? Even Zeng Jiwen could only muster one."

"Well, and the fuel consumption. If it weren't for the Yumen Oilfield, Zeng Jiwen probably wouldn't dare to do this."

The deputy chief of staff understood this and nodded.

"Last time, Zeng Jiwen said that the tank brigade's consumption was too high, and it would be better to replace it with a mechanized brigade that could serve as an independent combat unit.

Moreover, this force is mainly used to form our army's armored and mechanized forces.

I heard that Zeng Jiwen also wanted a few tank brigades, saying that he wanted to use the tactics he had mentioned before on the Japanese army in North China, but the reality was not enough.

He gave up.”

When Chen Shukang heard what they said, his brows furrowed. He thought of something, but he still felt like something was missing.

So I just started talking to a few people.

"I have a question. The troops in Tainan are going to be equipped with equipment from the Taihang Military Factory, but this takes time. What will he do if the Japanese army in North China heads towards his jurisdiction this year?"

Hearing this, the deputy chief of staff laughed.

"Otherwise, you got this equipment for free~"

Hearing this, Chen Shukang immediately understood that the next time the Japanese army in North China attacked Tainan, they would not be able to sit idle.

Not only can he not be idle, I'm afraid he will mainly be performing operas.

Thinking of this, Chen Shukang immediately became happy.

"Zeng Jiwen's calculations~"

After saying that, the entire command center laughed.

If Zeng Jiwen were here to hear what they said, he would definitely shake his head.

On the surface, Zeng Jiwen did think so.

After recovering North China, the Eighth Route Army will certainly launch an attack on Northeast China.

By that time, it was probably around 43.

After four or five years, Zeng Jiwen was able to put together several armored divisions by devoting all the strength of the base.

But we can't calculate it that way. You have to know that after the shocking blitzkrieg of the mustache troops at the end of this year, God knows whether the North will ask them to assist the Far East in launching such a battle in the Northeast for the sake of the safety of the Northeast.

This would certainly allow the Japanese defense line to be quickly cut and surrounded, but it was different from Zeng Jiwen's plan.

If he is really cut off and surrounded, he will have no use for these few hundred thousand yuan of living. This is not Siberia.

Zeng Jiwen was very disgusted with being asked to grow potatoes in Northeast China.

If he doesn't drive them north in groups, how can he become the messenger of justice and help his big brother solve his problems as a younger brother?
