"Principal Mingjian, the sacrifice of these nine divisions is certainly worth it." Lin Wei nodded, and said, "It's just that some people don't appreciate it very much." ”

Principal Chang's brows immediately frowned, of course he could understand Lin Wei's voice.

When the new 38th Division and the eight honorary divisions were full of strength and strong soldiers, Yu Jishi, Hu Zongnan, Chen Shi and others naturally treated them as fragrant and sweet, and tried every possible way to get a piece of the pie! In the same way, these nine divisions will also receive sufficient attention after they are incorporated into the 18th Army, the 74th Army, the 1st Army, and the 29th Army.

But now, the new 38th Division and the eight honorary divisions have been disabled, and only three or two dogs and cats remain, and at this time, instead of enhancing the combat effectiveness of the 18th Army, the 1st Army, the 74th Army, and the 29th Army, they have to carve up their already small supplementary troops, as well as weapons and equipment.

At this time, it is impossible for the commanders of the armies to care about them as much as before.

In other words, according to the original plan, if the new 38th Division and the eight honorary divisions were assigned to each unit, most of them would be squeezed out or even suppressed by various army commanders, and this phenomenon was very common in the army.

For example, back then, Zhang Zongchang defected to Zhang Zuolin and was arranged to take care of the mountains and forests in Heilongjiang.

For example, after the Central Plains War, the Northwest Army was also very bitter when it was first absorbed by Zhang Shaoshuai.

In short, who made you not a descendant? If you are not a descendant, you deserve to be excluded and suppressed, and this is a routine operation in all factions of the party-state.

If it was replaced by another unit, Principal Chang would not bother to care at all.

The party has more than 200 divisions, and if every division has to be managed, he must not die of exhaustion?

However, when it comes to the new 38th Division and the eight honorary divisions, Principal Chang feels that it is a pity to do so, no matter what, these nine divisions have all participated in the defense of Wuhan, and all of them are troops who can fight tough battles! If they are replenished with all the troops, and then given enough equipment, they will immediately have nine elite divisions!

Therefore, it is inappropriate to assign these nine divisions to various armies according to the original plan.

After a moment of silence, Principal Chang asked again, "Weiran, what do you think should be done?" ”

Lin Wei said: "Principal, I feel that troops like the new 38th Division and the Eight Honorary Divisions, and troops like those who have participated in big battles and tough battles, should be given key support!" ”

Principal Chang said: "Weiran, you say more specifically, what kind of support method?" ”

"Yes!" Lin Wei complimented, and said, "The best replenishment of troops should be given priority to these nine divisions, and the best weapons and equipment should also be given priority to replenish, even the graduates of the Central Military Academy should also give priority to replenishing these nine divisions, in short, make every effort to build these nine divisions into model troops!" ”

After a pause, Lin Wei said loudly again: "Build a model like the Central Military Academy Teaching Corps, and the combat effectiveness of this unit will far exceed that of the Central Military Academy Teaching Corps!" ”

Principal Chang said: "You mean to put these nine divisions together and form a group army?" ”

Sun Liren and Zhu Liangcheng are now division commanders, and it is impossible to demote them to be brigade commanders, so if you put nine divisions together, it can only be a group army, because an army can only have three divisions at most, and a regiment can only have six divisions at most!

"Yes! These nine divisions had the experience of fighting side by side in Wuhan, and they knew each other's roots and the bottom of each other, and there was no obstacle in their cooperation, at least there would be no situation in which they would fight each other or even pull each other's hind legs. Lin Wei nodded, and said, "And it's best for this group army to be actually commanded by Zhong Yi." ”

Lin Wei is on the matter, if these nine divisions can really be organized into a group army and handed over to Zhong Yi's command, then the future prospects of this group army are really exciting!

"Commanded by Zhong Yi?" Principal Chang glanced at Lin Wei deeply.

Principal Chang knew what Lin Wei meant, and Lin Wei didn't mean to let Zhong Yi serve as the commander-in-chief of this group army, because with Zhong Yi's background, age and qualifications, it was unimaginable to serve as the commander-in-chief of the group army! If Principal Chang really dared to give such an order, nearly 100 army commanders and more than 200 division commanders in the whole army would not have to rebel against the sky?

Lin Wei is not talking about the chief of staff of the group army headquarters, because Zhong Yi has already served as the chief of staff of the theater commander's department, according to the party-state practice of only promoting but not demoting, it is not appropriate to let Zhong Yi serve as the chief of staff of the group army headquarters, so it can only be made Zhong Yi the chief of staff of the group army!

But this is also something that Principal Chang can't tolerate, too fast!

If he didn't know Lin Wei well, Principal Chang would have wondered if he was bought by Zhong Yi.

Lin Wei didn't care, and continued: "Principal, it's time to arrange a suitable arrangement for Zhong Yi." ”

Principal Chang was silent when he heard this, with the miscarriage of the counteroffensive plan and the fall of Wuhan, the setting of the Dabie Mountain Theater had become a joke, so it was certain that the establishment of the Dabie Mountain Theater would be revoked.

In the future, there will be no more Dabie Mountain theater, but only the Dabie Mountain guerrilla zone.

Bai Chongbei will no longer serve as the commander-in-chief of the Dabie Mountain guerrilla zone, and this position will be held by Li Pinxian.

The Dabie Mountain Theater no longer exists, the Dabie Mountain Theater Staff Department does not exist, and Zhong Yi, the director of the General Staff, cannot be done, so he must be arranged with a place to go!

It is impossible to return to the First Division of Honor, because Zhong Yi can only serve as the commander of the First Division of Honor, not to mention how Zhu Liangcheng will arrange it, just the fact that Zhong Yi is the commander of the division, Principal Chang will not agree, he finally found an excuse to transfer Zhong Yi from the First Division of Honor in a high-sounding manner, how could he let him go back?

From the day Zhong Yi graduated from the Luojiashan Officer Training Corps, Principal Chang's positioning of Zhong Yi was to use his command ability, but not to let him actually control the military power! Therefore, Zhong Yi can only serve as the director of the general staff, and at most he can only serve as the chief of staff, and it is absolutely not allowed for him to be the commander of the troops!

It's not okay to go back to the first division of honor, so let him continue to stay in Dabie Mountain? Served as chief of staff of the Dabie Mountain guerrilla zone?

Bai Chongbei is quite tolerant, Zhong Yi can still play a role under him, but if Zhong Yi is arranged to serve as the chief of staff under Li Pinxian, I am afraid that he will not be able to interfere in anything.

It's a pity that such a talent is idle in Dabie Mountain.

But then again, it is not possible to let Zhong Yi serve as the chief of staff of the group army.

Because the chief of staff is not equal to the chief of staff, he is already half of the army commander!

In addition, Sun Liren, Zhu Liangcheng and other eight division commanders are all Zhong Yi's classmates and old subordinates, no matter who is asked to be the commander-in-chief of this group army, Zhong Yi may be overshadowed.
