When Zhang Wei received the order, he immediately ordered the troops to be deployed, and after the troops were expanded, many garrisons had to be redivided.

At present, the new 11th Army has two infantry divisions, and the 200th Division was quickly established because it had a foundation, and most of the original infantry in the unit before the expansion was divided into the newly established 200th Division.

Therefore, this ordinary infantry division, which had the number of 200 divisions, quickly set up a shelf and formed an army very quickly.

The newly formed 22nd Division is different, and the number issued by the Central Military Commission is a number, and there is no foundation of all kinds at all, and everything from soldiers and equipment to organs at all levels needs to be established little by little.

The new 11th Army was stationed near Xiangtan, and the same was true of the new 22nd Division, as its subordinate troops.

In the open space on the outskirts of Xiangtan, hundreds of soldiers are sweating and working, some digging cable trenches, some transporting civil engineering materials, and some using pliers and military wrenches to renovate and pull barbed wire.

A large number of tents were erected in the construction site, as well as horse-drawn carriages and a small number of automobiles, transporting various materials in and out of the huge construction site.

The personnel under construction are precisely the barracks construction unit composed of Zhang Wei's preparation battalion as the mainstay, supplemented by the existing personnel of the New 22nd Division.

Zhang Wei was wearing civilian military clothes, holding a predetermined construction distribution map in his hand, directing his subordinates to build, the military uniform was full of sweat stains, and Zhang Wei's military uniform badge had been replaced with a brand new badge.

A new number is printed on it - N22D, N is the meaning of the new series, 22 represents the number sequence, and D means division.

All the officers of the preparatory battalion have been replaced with new badges, and the armbands of the soldiers have been replaced with armbands with N22D written on them, and the original number of the preparatory battalion has been completely abolished.

Together with Zhang Wei, the unit was brought into the new 22nd Division, which has not yet been assigned a new number, and Zhang Wei, like many of the current officers of the new 22nd Division, has not been given an order to take up his post.

"Qiu Wei, organize people to dig the cable trench, and all the barbed wire trenches on the periphery are dug up!" Zhang Wei shouted at the top of his voice.

"Yes!" Qiu Wei, who was shirtless, was carrying a shovel and was leading people to dig cable trenches and barbed wire blockade trenches, sweating like rain.

The new 22nd Division has just been established, the foundation is too thin, and the largest force belongs to the Zhang Wei Preparation Battalion transferred into the formation, Qiu Maniac asked Chief Du for the preparation battalion when he was expanding, and Commander Du also knew that the foundation of the new 22nd Division was not good, not as good as the 200th Division, so he readily agreed, so there was the current construction scene.

The division department is still being established, and the division commander Qiu and the deputy division commander Liao are preparing for the construction of the division organ in Zhang Wei's newly repaired division headquarters.

Including the reserve battalion and the divisional headquarters special service company, all the existing soldiers of the new 22nd Division were assigned to Zhang Wei's command to build the garrison, and more than 800 people, including miscellaneous soldiers and non-combat soldiers, were all put into the construction of the garrison.

The new 22nd Division needs to be replenished with a large number of new soldiers, how big is this amount?

At least on the scale of more than 5,000 people, in the construction of the new 22nd Division, Commander Du transferred a group of officers and veterans to the division as the backbone reinforcements, and the rest had to be supplemented entirely by new soldiers.

The new 22nd Division was preparing to implement a new establishment, and the infantry division of the previous Nationalist Army had two brigades, four regiments and one supplementary regiment, but as the war progressed, the defects of this establishment gradually became apparent.

The attack and defense, as well as the communication between the troops, were not favorable, and the division and brigade commanders often felt inadequate when commanding, with only two brigades and two regiments under them.

Moreover, the brigade structure is sandwiched between divisions and regiments, which is extremely embarrassing, and there are few troops directly under the brigade headquarters and the command force is weak, and this command structure has only increased the difficulty of command.

Therefore, the Central Military Commission decided to change to a new establishment, abolish the first-level leadership system, and change the infantry division to three infantry regiments and one field supplementary regiment, with the division directly commanding the subordinate infantry regiments to fight.

The division commander can directly control and command three infantry regiments, which are relatively flexible in attack and defense, and have a simple communication structure.

According to the plan of the Central Military Commission, the establishment of the new infantry division of the three infantry regiments and one supplementary regiment should be implemented early next year, but the new 11 th Army is a special case, and since it is a new army and a key strengthened unit, the Central Military Commission has specially ordered the 200 th and 22 nd infantry divisions under the new 11 th Army to take the lead in implementing the new formation.

Compared with the old establishment, this kind of establishment is indeed more conducive to combat, and it also belongs to the development trend of modern warfare.

In short, this change of strength is not a bad thing for the national army, which is in a weak position on the battlefield.

In addition to the new establishment, there are also new recruits, and the new 22 nd Division currently has more than 1,000 officers and men supported by Commander Du, and in order to meet the needs of three combat regiments and one supplementary regiment, at least more than 5,000 recruits must be replenished.

According to the order, a large number of recruits will be transferred from the Hunan and Jiangxi divisions to replenish the new 22nd Division, and these recruits are on the way and will arrive in the near future.

The recruits needed food and shelter, and Zhang Wei was busy with this work, that is, to build temporary shelters for the recruits, to build the training facilities they needed, and to build all kinds of defensive measures and fortifications.

Of course, the fortifications were not to prevent devils, but to prevent recruits from escaping, and all the periphery of the garrison was dug with a large ditch high and surrounded by barbed wire, which was densely covered with layers of barbed wire, and was much higher than the height of normal people.

What is the situation of the recruits of the national army, Qiu Luozi and others will not know.

Basically, they are all strong men who are forcibly recruited, and they have escaped and made up for it, which is extremely troublesome.

These recruits were originally forcibly captured, so as soon as there is a chance to settle down, five out of ten will escape, so Madman Qiu specially told Zhang Wei to take precautions.

This defensive measure has forcibly increased the amount of work for Zhang Wei by one-third, and the recruits' quarters are built with tents and wood, and now most of them have been completed, but the blockade ditch and barbed wire fence on the periphery are still a lot worse.

"Brothers, come on! Finish it early and go back to rest early! Zhang Wei personally picked up the shovel, took off his coat, jumped into the blockade ditch where Qiu Wei was wearing a military vest, and personally joined the construction team.

"Battalion commander, there's a lot of work here, it's like a devil, it's a blockade ditch and barbed wire." Qiu Wei was laboriously digging the soil, and when he saw Zhang Wei joining the digging army, he couldn't help but scold.

Zhang Wei was also digging the soil, digging out the soil, and then lifting the soil out of the trench.

"Don't complain, you don't know what's going on with the recruits who have been added, we are the main force, the recruits who come must be watched strictly, don't look at it, get a lot of deserters, this job is our first task to enter the new 22nd Division, Chief Qiu and Chief Liao are looking at it, for the sake of the troops, this job must be done well."

Qiu Wei nodded helplessly, with a wry smile on his face: "Yes, you should practice earthwork!" ”

After saying that, he continued to work hard.
