Hu Bin originally thought that they were going to recruit 60,000 troops, because Li Nian had told Hu Bin before that they came here to prepare for the expansion, and Hu Bin did not recruit troops, not to mention that those of them did not agree, even the commander and commander-in-chief, and Commander Peng, they would not agree.

It is impossible for Hu Bin to always be a division commander, because now Hu Bin's level is already at the deputy army level, if the expansion is expanded, he can be promoted to the army level at any time, Hu Bin's combat exploits and experience are enough, the only difference is that there are other non-combat experience in terms of qualifications, so Li Nian estimates that those deputy division-level cadres will definitely want Hu Bin to expand the army.

"I said you one by one, don't tell me, Commander Peng didn't send you a telegram from there, I want you to hurry up and train the troops after you get here." Li Nian looked at them with a smile and said.

"Hey, hey!" When they heard this, they all laughed.

"Tell me, what do you think, Commander Peng asked you to recruit more troops, and you still dare not listen?" Li Nian asked with a smile.

"It's not that we don't listen, we listen, but Brother Bin is the division commander, and he doesn't want to recruit soldiers, what can we do, right? What's the matter, Brother Bin, you top it yourself, we just listen to you anyway! The monk said with a smile.

"Yes, listen to you, you are the division commander!" Ye Xiaohua also nodded with a smile and said.

"Haha, I said you, you know that Hu Bin doesn't want to be a military commander, just be a division commander, you still want to listen to Hu Bin, and then you will be deputy division-level cadres one by one!" Li Nian said with a smile.

"What does it matter, as long as you can win the battle, you don't care about the rest." Ye Xianteng also spoke.

"That is, what's the use of having more soldiers, and there are not too many soldiers." Deputy Political Commissar Luo Yuanjian also nodded and said.

"Okay, okay, I thought about it before, soldiers still have to be recruited, but, this soldier, you can't directly join the big army, I originally wanted to recruit 20,000 people, but then I thought about it, the political commissar is also right, you come over, it is arranged by the organization, it is impossible for you to be a deputy division-level cadre, I have a proposal, can you listen to it?" Hu Bin sat there and said to them.

"Commander, you say!" Li Nian nodded and said to Hu Bin.

"The troops' recruitment, this time to recruit 20,000 people, in the future each batch of 20,000 people as our main force reserve force, this reserve force is for people outside, but also the main force, we said to Commander Peng, these troops are supplementary troops, in this way, Commander Peng will not say anything about us.

When the first batch of troops have been fully trained and have actual combat experience, we will immediately recruit the second batch of troops, recruiting 40,000 troops, which we still call to the outside world supplementary troops, and we must also be strictly trained; I estimate that within one year, we will still be able to recruit all 60,000 troops, and when the training is completed, we will hold another meeting to discuss the issue of a new troop command system.

Besides, it's unrealistic to recruit 60,000 people here, not only our troops have to recruit people, but other troops also have to recruit people, and we can't grab it with our brother troops, as for the first batch of 20,000 troops, we will also allocate troops according to the structure of our current side.

Infantry, artillery, armored troops, and special regiments may not be easy to recruit, but there are still a lot of martial arts practitioners here in Hebei, I remember that there are many people practicing martial arts here in Cangzhou, and when the time comes, you will go over there to recruit troops! Hu Bin looked at Fang Lei as he spoke, and Fang Lei nodded, indicating that he knew. The others also looked at Hu Bin and nodded.

"That's it, are there any other questions?" Hu Bin looked at everyone and said.

"Division commander, I want to ask, is there no problem with our recruitment, what about weapons and equipment?" Deputy Chief of Staff Chen Hang asked.

"We still have more than 20,000 rifles on our side, three or eight big covers, let the soldiers practice first, don't worry about the rest, I will get it." You just need to train your soldiers. Hu Bin said.

"Weapons, you don't have to worry about it, this is not for you to worry about, you can rest assured, I dare to guarantee you, what weapons you want, we can get them for you, now it's the matter of recruitment and training, the matter of recruitment, political commissar Luo, you are responsible, the matter of training, Chief of Staff Ye Xiaohua, you are responsible! Is there a problem? Li Nian also spoke there.

As Hu Bin's partner, he knew Hu Bin's ability in the arsenal, and he didn't have to worry about weapons as a political commissar at all, he just had to worry about other living materials and the ideological dynamics of the soldiers.

After Li Nian finished speaking, he looked at the other people, wanting to know if they had any opinions, and saw that the other people had no opinions.

Li Nian opened his mouth and said, "Since there is no opinion, then vote by show of hands." As he spoke, he raised his hand, Hu Bin also raised it, and the other people saw that the political commissar and the division commander both raised their hands, and immediately raised their hands, and this matter was passed.

"Okay, I just talked about the New Year's arrangement, and now let's continue to discuss." The political commissar continued, and Hu Bin also began to express his opinion.

After about half an hour, the meeting was over, and they were sitting in the conference room and chatting.

"Brother Bin, I thought you would fight Yingkou before, why did you stop later?" Monk Li Qinwei looked at Hu Bin and asked.

"You and I don't want to fight, Tamad, the little devil is too treacherous, he has to retreat, and he won't be able to fight again, you know, our side is not ready to go to war, if we force it to fight, it will not work, but at that time, the devil will definitely reinforce a large number of troops in the northeast, which will bring us more trouble for the next attack.

So I thought about it, forget it, let's wait and talk, the devils in Yingkou and Mukden are not to be afraid, and now I am worried about the devils in the Far East, and the recruits that the devils got from India.

If this is transferred to the northeast of our country, I don't know how many people will harm us, so it stands to reason that we should hurry up. Hu Bin sat there and sighed.

"When will it be done?" Ye Xiaohua asked.

"Wait for the order, wait for the order of the headquarters, now we have to train the troops, and as soon as the order arrives, we will go to battle!" Hu Bin replied.

However, at this time, on the side of the United States, Roosevelt also convened a meeting of the General Staff and the Cabinet, as well as his own staff.

Now the Japanese troops have been pushed to the border areas of the United States, and they are still attacking, and Japan has obtained a large amount of grain from Canada, so there is no need to transport the grain, and the rest is to transport weapons, ammunition and other daily necessities, which greatly reduces the logistical pressure on the Japanese troops.

Now many of the Philippine soldiers have become veterans, and they are fighting very fiercely, no worse than the devil soldiers, so in the past year, the casualties on the side of the United States have exceeded 3 million, all of whom are young people from their own country.

At this time, more than 6 million troops were recruited across the country, of which 4 million troops were guarding the front line, establishing a defense line to block the attacks of devils, and 2 million troops were arranged to train all over the country.

"Your Excellency President, it's time for us to continue recruiting soldiers, the casualties on our front line are too great, the Japanese side is also resting, I estimate that they are also tired, and their next attack, we estimate that it will be difficult for us to hold on." Marshall sat there and said to Roosevelt.

"I know that tomorrow's parliament will discuss this issue, and I think the parliament will pass it, and everyone understands that if we can't stop the Japanese invasion, all of us in the country will be unlucky, and we don't know where to flee to.

The Soviet Union was not safe, and China's side, maybe China's side was still slightly safer, but once the Soviet Union was defeated, China would not be safe either, and China would not be able to face direct attacks from Germany and Japan at that time. Roosevelt rubbed his temples and said.

"Is China still unwilling to fully cooperate with us?" Marshall asked.

"They don't agree, Chongqing now wants to recover their former capital Nanjing, and after fighting Nanjing, they will have to recuperate. As for Yan'an, I guess they will definitely think of a way to recover the Northeast next year, as well as Mongolia! Mongolia, as soon as Japan and the USSR fought, Chinese troops would drive in! Roosevelt began.

Marshall heard it and sighed.

Originally, the last time he visited China, he was completely able to reach this agreement, and China also hoped to reach an agreement with this side, but because of his own hesitation and distrust, this opportunity was missed in vain.

"I'm sorry, I messed up this matter, and I didn't expect it to be like this." Marshall apologized to Roosevelt.

"I don't blame you, we didn't believe it at the beginning, who knows how China fought it, a country that looks like it is torn apart, can actually fight Japan like this.

Now Japan doesn't dare to put so many troops on its own territory, because it is afraid that one day the Chinese air force will bomb Tokyo! Roosevelt couldn't figure it out, and none of the other people could figure it out, and they couldn't analyze any of the right results on the Chinese side.

"Report, General Stilwell is back, just arrived at the White House." At this point, a secretary pushed the door open and spoke.

"Okay, please invite him in, he is on the Chinese side, and he has made a great contribution to our country!" Roosevelt heard it and said with great joy.

"Wait a minute, let General Stilwell talk about the things on the Chinese side, and let us also know about China!" A cabinet man looked at Roosevelt and said.

"Well, look at General Stilwell's mental state, if there is no problem, I also agree to let him tell us, I also want to know more about China." Roosevelt nodded, agreeing with the cabinet member's suggestion. (To be continued.) )
