The 1st Advance Regiment and the 6th Cavalry Regiment all adopted the 44 system, and the new 2nd Brigade had more than 6,000 troops, which was a mixed brigade-level combat unit.
The whole brigade began to be reorganized according to Sun Weiguo's establishment, and officers at all levels immediately began to organize their own units.
Although Chief of Staff Ni brought some recruits to the New Second Brigade on behalf of the Shanxi-Hebei-Henan Military Region, these recruits were far from being able to bring the New Second Brigade to full strength, so officers at all levels still had to recruit new soldiers.
And now some of the tanks have not yet arrived, and the company and platoon commanders of the armored battalion are all infantry officers, and they also need to be trained.
The appointment of personnel and weapons and equipment in the army have begun to be formulated, and after Sun Weiguo and Shen Wei and others discussed these matters, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brigade commander, what about the situation on the side of the Independent Regiment, although they are troops of the Jinchaji Military Region, but we can't ignore them, right?"
After discussing the establishment of the new Second Brigade, Zhao Lerong looked at Sun Weiguo, and he asked softly.
This time, the two battalions of the independent regiment have been exhausted in the operation, and there is only one cavalry battalion left in the independent regiment at present, and Zhao Lerong wants to see what Sun Weiguo means.
"The establishment of the two battalions of the independent regiment is according to the establishment of our infantry battalion, and the cavalry battalion temporarily has two cavalry companies and a machine gun company, and we will provide weapons and ammunition, and we will also help recruit a group of personnel.
Sun Weiguo did not hesitate, he replied directly that the independent regiment was his old army, and this time the independent regiment was almost exhausted, so Sun Weiguo naturally couldn't ignore it.
Zhao Lerong nodded and agreed, and Shen Wei on the side didn't say anything.
The three commanders of the new 2nd Brigade decided these things, they looked at each other, and the three of them left the room.
At present, Zhong Jian and the others are all being treated in Pingding County, and because Sun Weiguo was injured and needed to recuperate, Liu Qian did not let them meet, so as not to affect each other's emotions.
Now that Sun Weiguo's body has recovered, he naturally wants to go to see Zhong Jian and the others.
After leaving the ward, it happened that Liu Qian also walked in from the courtyard, the hospital is currently established in a large courtyard in the county, Sun Weiguo has received special care, he lives in Liu Qian's ward, and people like Zhong Jian live with the wounded.
"Where are you going?" Seeing Sun Weiguo, Shen Wei and Zhao Lerong walking out, Liu Qianqiao showed a slightly unhappy expression on her face, she was very worried about Sun Weiguo's body.
"I'm going to see Captain Zhong Jian, now that my body has almost recovered, I should go and see them." Sun Weiguo said with a smile.
Hearing that Sun Weiguo was just going to look at Zhong Jian, the expression on Liu Qian's beautiful cheeks relaxed.
"Captain Zhong Jian's injury is relatively light, and it won't take long to recover, Chen Yang and Hong Zhiqiang are very serious, and they need to be treated for a while."
Liu Qian said softly, her eyes looked at Sun Weiguo, and then she personally led the way in front and walked directly towards the front of the courtyard.
Coming to a spacious house, Liu Qian pointed to the hospital bed not far away, Sun Weiguo followed Liu Qian's finger and looked over, he saw Zhong Jian.
"Brigadier Commander." The wounded greeted Sun Weiguo one after another, and Sun Weiguo did not call to go directly to Zhong Jian, he smiled and talked with the wounded for a while, and then walked towards Zhong Jian.
"Defend the country." Zhong Jian looked at Sun Weiguo, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Old Master." Sun Weiguo raised his right hand, and he saluted Zhong Jian with a very standard military salute.
