Going back to Zhu Liangcheng and the others, they waited in the small conference room until the afternoon, and Zhong Yi finally came back.

Seeing Zhong Yi walk in, Zhu Liangcheng and the others hurriedly got up to meet each other, and Zhou Erzi followed behind, and he also shrunk his head and came forward to greet Zhong Yi.

Sun Liren's heart was as careful as a hair, and he found that Zhong Yi's white gloves had a lot of bloodstains.

At that moment, Sun Liren asked, "Ziren, why do you have blood on your hands?" Hurt? ”

"No, it's not my blood." Zhong Yi took off his gloves and threw them away.

"Someone else's blood?" Sun Liren said awe-inspiringly, "What's the matter, I met someone who couldn't open my eyes again?" ”

Now, Sun Liren is already the captain of the major general of the anti-smuggling corps, and there are more than 5,000 people under his command, if anyone dares to assassinate Zhong Yi without long eyes, he dares to lead troops to finish his lair!

"Nope." Zhong Yi shook his head and said, "Kill a brigade commander." ”

"What?" Sun Liren and the others looked at each other for a moment when they heard this, and killed a brigade commander?

Hiding at the end, Erzi subconsciously shrank his neck, his face was full of horror, I heard that although Zhong Yi was only a chief of staff, he was extremely fierce, he didn't believe it originally, but today he believed it, killing a brigade commander seemed to him like drinking saliva, such fierceness, there is really no one.

Zhong Yi said again: "Since you have all arrived, let's have a meeting." ”

Zhu Liangcheng and the others hurriedly sat on the left and right sides of the conference table.

Zhong Yi took the main seat without letting go, and said after forming a circle of people: "Even if you don't come to me today, I will send someone to find you, the Wuhan Garrison Command has been formally established, and the formation has been officially determined, and the entire garrison headquarters has eight brigades plus two corps, which is equivalent to the formation of ten infantry brigades!" ”

"In terms of troops, the Sixth, Sixteenth, Thirty-seventh, Seventy-fifth and Ninety-fourth Armies have been split, and the strength of all forty regiments will be used to replenish the ten brigades in the garrison!"

"But you also know the quality of the officers and soldiers of these forty regiments, most of them are new recruits, and they are in weak health, if they don't train well for a period of time, it's useless!"

"Therefore, I plan to select twenty regiments from them first, almost 30,000 people, plus 30,000 veterans from Huangpi who are about to recover from their wounds to supplement you, so that each of your brigades can have almost 7,000 people."

Hearing this, Zhu Liangcheng and the other ten people suddenly looked uplifted, and the soldiers finally fell!

After a pause, Zhong Yi continued: "When the soldiers are in place, immediately start intensive training, remember, you must increase the intensity of training as much as possible, sweat more in peacetime, and shed less blood in wartime, this truth must be told to the brothers!" ”

Chen Jing'an said: "There is no problem in increasing the intensity of training, but the problem is that if the food cannot keep up, it will waste the training of the brothers. ”

"You don't have to worry about it!" Zhong Yi said, "I will find a way to solve the problem!" ”

Sun Liren hesitated, but still said: "Ziren, training is not difficult to solve, food can be overcome, the most troublesome thing is weapons and equipment, when will the weapons and equipment be in place?" ”

"yes, when will the weapons and equipment be in place?"

"Without weapons, training can't be carried out?"

"Your brigade is good, we don't have a brigade fart."

As soon as they heard Sun Liren's words, the others immediately became calm.

"Don't worry!" Zhong Yi said, "I asked the Ministry of Military Affairs, and a batch of Soviet aid arrived in Wuhan immediately, in addition to guns and artillery, there are even tanks!" ”

"And tanks?" Zhu Liangcheng suddenly perked up when he heard this.

Shi Zude and Liu Yuanlin were also overjoyed, because their guard brigade, special service brigade, and 367 brigade all had a tank battalion on the formation table.

Zhong Yi seemed to be able to guess what the three of them were thinking.

At that moment, Zhong Yi said: "Don't think about the tank battalion, the Ministry of Military Affairs only gave a total of 48 tanks, and this batch of tanks was originally intended for the 200th division, because I detained this batch of tanks, and Qiu Maniac turned his face against me!" ”

Shi Zude sneered: "Ziren, since there are only 48 tanks in total, we don't want to worry about the tank battalion, but to make a small-scale tank company, our guard brigade plus the special service brigade and the 367 brigade are exactly one tank company per brigade." ”

Liu Yuanlin also nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, yes, the tank company is still okay." ”

"Why?" Chen Jing'an and the others became anxious when they heard this, "Why can your three brigades have a tank company, but our five brigades can't have a tank company?" ”

Shi Zude immediately had a different face when he faced Chen Jing'an, and said proudly: "Why? Just because our three brigades are all elite, can your five new brigades compare with us? ”

"I, you ......" Chen Jingan was speechless when he heard this.

Sun Liren smiled, too lazy to bother with Shi Zude.

"Alright, don't even think about the tank!" Zhong Yi said coldly, "I have a lot of use for these 48 tanks, I want to use these 48 tanks as the backbone to form an armored assault column, and keep it for counterattacks!" ”

"Armored assault columns? When fighting a counterattack? Chen Jingan and the others looked at each other again.

God, the battle of Wuhan hasn't started yet, I don't know what the situation is, Zhong Ziren is already thinking about the counterattack? That's too far ahead, isn't it?

Shi Zude, Liu Yuanlin, and Zhu Liangcheng were also disappointed.

Zhong Yi continued: "But don't be too disappointed, I have good news!" ”

"Oh?" Shi Zude and the others looked upbeat after hearing it for a while, and asked, "What good news?" ”

Zhong Yi said: "I heard that Mr. Johnson, the US Minister to China, and Colonel Stilwell, the military attaché, have returned from the United States and have just arrived in Wuhan, and I am ready to urgently order a batch of arms from the United States through their relationship, including 200 37mm caliber combat defense guns and 24 M1918 155mm caliber howitzers. ”

"What? 200 tank defense guns and 24 large-caliber howitzers? ”

Zhu Liangcheng and the others were immediately in high spirits when they heard this, the cannon is the king of land warfare! The reason why the national army could not defeat the Japanese army had a lot to do with the artillery in which the Japanese army had absolute superiority!

Zhong Yi nodded, and said: "When this batch of anti-aircraft artillery is in place, each of your brigades can form a battalion of anti-aircraft artillery, and then there will be street battles, so you don't have to worry about the devil's thin-skinned tank!" ”

"Ziren, in this way, our confidence will be even stronger!" Sun Liren said excitedly when he heard this, "To be honest, I was worried that there was no good way to deal with the devil's tank, and it would be easy to be countered by relying on Molotov cocktails alone, but if there is a battle defense artillery, then there will be no problem!" ”

"Now you go back." Zhong Yi bowed his head lightly and said, "After I go back, I will step up the training of the troops, and I can only give you two months of training time at most." ”
