In order to improve the efficiency of the troops, the new 33rd Army began a drastic reform! The original New 33rd Army became the 33rd Army Military Region, Liao Fan became the commander-in-chief, and the original division commanders also won several levels in a row and became the commander of the group army!

"Do you guys still have questions?" Liao Fan asked the opinions of several people, there must be a lot to do in the reorganization of the troops!

"Brother Fan, since we have decided to reorganize the troops, do we divide the defense areas of our several group armies? Now all the defense areas of the troops are staggered, no one recognizes whose defense area, sometimes the two troops are recruited in the same place, and the soldiers on both sides sometimes fight in order to compete for new recruits, and there are a lot of troubles! "Inch Qi suggested.

Originally, the defense area of the new 33rd Army was clear, the area responsible for one division was obvious, and there was not so much competition between the troops! However, since Liao Fan gave the order to attack the Japanese army in Hebei, the various units continued to occupy the Japanese army's defense area, which also led to the unclear defense area between the divisions!

Because the defense area is not clear, many things have also begun to become troublesome, such as when there are good things in this place, they all rush to come, once something goes wrong, they all scatter in a hurry, and no one wants to take responsibility! This has caused a lot of adverse effects on the New 33rd Army!

Of course, the best solution is to clarify the specific location of the defense zone, and whoever should be responsible for the problem will be responsible, and you can't run away if you want to!

"Right...... Next, I'm going to talk about the defense area, don't think I'm not by your side, I don't know about the little things you do, it's just that I usually look at your hard work without merit, I just turn a blind eye! ”

For the things in the defense area, no matter how big or small, Liao Fan sees it in his eyes, but they are far away from the headquarters, call them back to the headquarters for approval, and then let them go back, and let them deal with a lot of work if the time delayed on the road is tight! Secondly, these little things are harmless, and Liao Fan should have done something that didn't happen.

"Brother Fan, we dare to do things that jeopardize the image of our New 33rd Army in the hearts of the people, we all know that the people are our heaven!" Liu Chundao's heart is a little empty!

Because during this period of time, there were often some small conflicts between their division and Lao Hu's troops, among which there were soldiers fighting and brawling, but in the end, Liu Chundao and Hu Guoshan solved it privately, because they were afraid that they would make trouble with Liao Fan, and then wait to be criticized! simply took a step back as soon as the two of them discussed, and then the matter was hidden from Liao Fan! However, there is no unventilated wall in the world, and in the end, Liao Fan let him know.

"No need to explain, from today onwards, once the defense zone is divided, except for special tasks, you can cross the line, but for the sake of something the size of a sesame seed, don't blame me for being rude! The most important thing is to settle the people, since you know that the people are our heaven, you must treat the people well! ”

The people are always the foundation, if you are good to the people, the people will naturally be good to you! The development of any army is inseparable from the support of the common people! Liao Fan doesn't want to pursue the mistakes he made in the past, whoever wants to make the same mistake again from now on, Liao Fan will definitely punish him severely, no matter how close he is to Liao Fan, there must be strict military discipline in the army.

"Okay, look at the map and divide your defense zone!" Liao Fan took out the map and said to a few, "From now on, the focus of our defense is in Hebei, Shandong and northern Henan!" ”

Liao Fan had already marked the location on the map, this was all his homework done in advance, just take it out and use it!

"Because the northern Henan region is adjacent to Shandong, Anhui and Jiangsu, the situation it is facing is also more responsible, from today Hu Guoshan your troops will be in charge of the southern Henan region, but you have to remember that in the southern Henan region, in addition to dealing with the little devils more, and the national army is also often met, there are some things to deal with, don't take the initiative to find trouble, but they want to find our trouble, go back directly!"

The southern Henan region is not a good place, there is no economy, and the population is less than other places! Hu Guoshan's troops are the number one main force of the new 33rd Army Military Region, and of course they have to be responsible for more difficult tasks, so Liao Fan took the southern part of Henan as Hu Guoshan's defense area! Over there, you have to fight wits and courage with the little devils, and you also have to deal with the national army!

"Brother Fan, don't worry, I promise to carry out your orders!"

"The troops of the three of you, set up here, here! And here! Except that the troops of the commander of the inch division were deployed against the Japanese army in the Shandong region! The troops of the two of you are deployed against the little devils in the Pingjin area! I don't ask you to attack the Japanese troops in the Pingjin area, but you must limit Okamura Ninji's troops to the Pingjin area! ”

Now Wuhan has become a thorn in the flesh of the national army, and the Pingjin area is also a thorn in Liao Fan's heart, the thorn in Wuhan can still be pulled out, but the thorn in the Pingjin area, I am afraid that if the Japanese army does not surrender for a day, it will always be a thorn in Liao Fan's heart!

Liao Fan arranged for Liu Chundao and Li Weimin's troops to spread out around the Pingjin area, the purpose was to limit the Japanese army in the calm area, but also to guard against the Japanese army in the northeast!

"From today, the artillery division and armored division will also be deployed in Zhangjiakou, the purpose of which is to assist Li Weimin's troops to prevent the threat of the Japanese army from the northeast!"

For the deployment of the army, Liao Fan is at ease, and every aspect has been taken into account! As for Shanxi, they don't need to deploy too many troops at all, after all, the local police system has also been perfected, and it would be good to leave only some troops to maintain law and order in remote areas!

As for the security around the Taihang Mountain area, it still needs to be guaranteed, so Liao Fan wants to expand his guard regiment into a guard division, responsible for ensuring the safety of the surrounding area of Taihang Mountain!

"Do you have the right people to pick? I want to arrange a division commander here and let him be responsible for the safety of Taihang Mountain! ”

The safety of Taihang Mountain is the top priority, and it does not require this person to have much military ability, but he must be conscientious, after all, Taihang Mountain is now the core of the new 33rd Army Military Region, once something goes wrong, hundreds of thousands of troops will lose their command!

"Brother Fan, this is simple, why don't you pick a few of the old officers, anyway, you don't expect them to go to the battlefield, as long as you can stay in chaos and stabilize the troops in times of crisis!"

Everyone understands that with the four of them here, how could they put Taihang Mountain in danger, once there is a situation in Taihang Mountain, the four of them will definitely bring troops to support! Therefore, it is not necessarily the elite troops who surround Taihang Mountain, but they must be able to stabilize their positions, not the kind of people who are scared as soon as the battle breaks out!

"Hmm...... That's a good suggestion! ”

Liao Fan thought about it carefully, those officers who had been wounded on the battlefield thought that they could not return to the battlefield for various reasons, but they always had the New 33rd Army in their hearts, although they lost an arm on the battlefield, but it did not affect their command of the battle at all, and they could sit in the position of division commander and command the troops to ensure the safety of Taihang Mountain!

After arranging everything, Liao Fan didn't let a few people stay at the headquarters to get together as usual! This time the task is relatively heavy, Liao Fan dared them to go back to his headquarters early!

"I'm waiting to see your report at the headquarters, and in half a month I will take your report to your troops and read it one by one!"

The reorganization of the troops must be completed as soon as possible, after all, there is an enemy army not far from them, and if the reorganization is delayed for a long time and cannot be completed, it will inevitably lead to problems in command, and once a war breaks out and there is a problem in command, it is bound to suffer defeat!

After a few people saluted Liao Fan, they went home to prepare for the reorganization of the troops. The headquarters was deserted again.

"Lao Li, don't take the guard regiment with you, feel at ease to be your chief of staff at the command headquarters!"

Liao Fan has decided to reorganize the guard regiment into a guard division, and hand over the guard work of Taihang Mountain to the guard division, this is definitely not an easy job, Li Lingfei is still busy with a lot of things in the command headquarters, if the guard division is handed over to him to manage, it is a bit too unkind.

"I've already thought about this matter, Head Wei is still in the hospital, mainly to do security work for the hospital, I think it's just right to bring him up! Regiment Commander Wei had risen to prominence in Ma Wanzhong's division at the beginning, if it hadn't been for his injury, maybe he would have become a commander in this troop reorganization! ”

Li Lingfei had been selecting a qualified regiment commander for the guard regiment for a long time, and now he was taking advantage of the reorganization of the army to expand the first guard division, Li Lingfei simply said what he thought in his heart, and Liao Fan of the province went to select the manpower again.

"You Lao Li is really my good helper, I really didn't misunderstand you at the beginning, I didn't expect you to arrange it for me a long time ago, then listen to you, I will have less trouble, let Lao Wei be the commander of the guard division! Anyway, it's close to the station, and if we're lucky, he won't need to go to the battlefield! ”

Liao Fan also heard that Lao Wei had met a few times when he was in the hospital, and he never had a good chance to talk to him, and now the division commander who promoted him to be the commander of the guard division can be regarded as a good arrangement for him, anyway, Liao Fan has no intention of arranging the guard division to the battlefield!

"Okay, I'll go to Lao Wei tomorrow morning to announce the appointment!"

The reorganization of the new 33rd Army Military Region has been framed by Liao Fan, and the rest of the things can only be filled by the officers below, as for what it looks like, only Liao Fan can know if he has checked it in the army!

Liao Fan was half-lying on the chair, closing his eyes and recuperating, there were too many things that had happened recently, which had already made him feel a little powerless! The things in the army are one after another, and the things outside are also one after another, Liao Fan is running around, and this period of time has really consumed a lot of his energy!

However, as the order for the reorganization of the new 33rd Army was issued, the matter in Wuhan was still not resolved, and hundreds of thousands of troops surrounded Wuhan without the slightest progress!
