"Are you Zhang Lingfu?"

"Yes! Commander! Zhang Lingfu stood tall and slightly cold, standing straight.

When Zhang Lingfu stood in front of Meng Xiang, Meng Xiang just nodded at him lightly and said, "Kill the enemy well!" ”

In front of this arrogant soldier, it is nonsense to say anything, and Meng Xiang has already given him a better stage.

Zhang Lingfu felt a little unlucky at first.

He was sentenced to prison for the murder of his wife, but as the horn of war sounded, he was given the opportunity to return to the army and make meritorious contributions. In the defense of Nanjing, he was seriously wounded, but he still broke the olive branch of the vanguard army and returned to the 74th Army. But as soon as he recovered from his injury, the news that he changed his name and returned to the army was disclosed by unknown people, which attracted a unanimous crusade from the women's community. Even Song Meiling specially asked about this matter. Wang Yaowu, who is very good at being a man, has to think about other paths for him.

So, Zhang Lingfu came to the vanguard army when the sky was unpredictable and no one took him in.

Meng Xiang shook his hand, and also gave him the position of regiment commander who had just come down from the 305th Regiment, and left a sentence: "The 122nd Brigade has no brigade commander for the time being, and it will be decided on the basis of military merits in a month." ”

The 41st Division originally had only two brigades, 121 and 123, and although it had the strength of three brigades, the new establishment of 122 was only recently acquired through bribery. Unlike Huang Huamin and Hu Minghe, who had already been in the position of brigade commander, the 122nd Brigade did not have the post of brigade commander for the time being, and it was necessary to compete for posts.

In the 50th Division, division commander Huang Baitao himself led a brigade, deputy division commander Niu San led a brigade, and Li Tiexia led a brigade commander. There is no other chance to get ahead.

The competition in the 18th Division was also fierce, and several seedlings Meng Xiang were optimistic, so he didn't want to mix Zhang Lingfu in.

So he was directly assigned to the 41st Division.

This last sentence immediately aroused Zhang Lingfu's competitive heart, but he didn't know that Meng Xiang, who turned around and left, had a little pride in his heart. After a long period of operation, Zhang Lingfu is in hand, and he only needs to win over more. The majority of the 122 Brigade is a few recruits, but the loyal clones continue to maintain a ratio of one-fifteenth, ensuring that each squad has an average of one. Clones occupy the mainstream of grassroots officers, and it is difficult for others to mix sand even if they want to.

Even if Lao Jiang wants to pull the team away now, he has to settle the military salary first. Not every team can afford the real salary of the vanguard army.

The 100,000 troops of the vanguard army spent more than 2 million silver dollars per month. For others, this was a lot of money, and the Vanguard pension system made the soldiers happy to stay in the Vanguard, and the relatively senior officers were much less paid than the other warlords. But at this level, if you are only greedy for money, then there is basically not much way out.

The super-strength of the vanguard army is the stage on which these officers can show their hearts.

For example, it is like the 246th regiment led by Zhang Lingfu now.

"Is this still a new regiment?" Zhang Lingfu visited his regiment under the leadership of the regimental chief of staff, Rat 32. When he saw the neatly arranged soldiers, Zhang Lingfu really couldn't imagine that this was a new regiment. He didn't know that all recruits needed to train in the recruit training camp that Niu Yi was in charge of for three months, and only after passing the qualifications would they decide whether they would stay or go by lottery. This also avoids the existence of mountain heads in the army to the greatest extent.

Seeing the roster of this regiment, Zhang Lingfu felt even more incredible. At this time, the strength of an ordinary division in the Central Army was between 6,000 and 8,000. The number of the 246th regiment was close to 4,000 at first. This is almost the strength of a brigade of the Central Army, and if there are three such regiments in that brigade, isn't it equivalent to a division?

When he was in Nanjing, he had also heard that the battalion of the Pioneer Army was very powerful, but it was only a battalion, and no matter how big it was, it was a militia regiment. At this time, there was already an army, and the vanguard army had become the most warlord in Shandong.

"Sooner or later, the Central Committee will have to deal with the vanguard army!" Zhang Lingfu had already made this conclusion in his heart, but when he saw the strong strength of the vanguard army, he couldn't help but hesitate, "When the time comes, both sides will inevitably lose and be profited by others." It's a pity that such an army died in internal strife! ”

"No matter, it's important to fight devils now! I don't know if I will survive until the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, so I'll talk about that later. He finally shook off these thoughts and looked at this infantry regiment that was stronger than the elite regiment of the Central Army with joy.

"No wonder the vanguard army can completely annihilate a wing, with this regiment alone, I can also defeat a wing of devils." Although the number of people was similar, looking at those weapons, Zhang Lingfu said confidently.

It's not just confidence, the opportunity is coming soon.

"Your regiment's mission is to clear Dongping County!" Fan Chong arranged a relatively easy job for this new regiment, and according to intelligence, there was only one brigade in the 119th Wing of the 109th Division.

"Let's go!" Zhang Lingfu had some regrets in his heart, but he had just taken over the 246th Regiment, and it had not yet been integrated, and it was not suitable for fighting with the scale of the wing, the devil veterans were very tenacious, and if these recruits retreated, the whole army would collapse.

"This vanguard army is too arrogant!" Zhang Lingfu sat in this SDKFZ251\1 armored transport vehicle, looked at the Opel truck troop convoy outside, and couldn't help but sigh again. He found that he had a little like this team, so powerful that he was not afraid of any opponent.

In the battle in Yantai, it has been found that the off-road speed of trucks cannot keep up with the speed of tank assault, and some environments cannot rely on tank assault alone, and infantry must follow and cover. So that the armored personnel carrier needs to be prepared. So, Meng Xiang, who had a lot of money, produced 20 SDKFZ251 armored vehicles of various models in one go, and first tested the surnames of each model.

Although the armored vehicles of the half-track will be phased out later, they are now something that is on the way. Even the Germans took a fancy to the car and were negotiating with the second class. Regarding the fact that the vanguard army plagiarized their weapon technology, Meng Xiang simply pushed it all away, shouting that he just bought it. The Germans were also helpless about this, except for a few arms sellers who were exposed, and they couldn't find anyone behind them. In the end, it was only after occasionally coming forward that the production license of the MP-40 submachine gun was given to the Germans, promising not to produce the MG-34 again, and the matter was finally settled to a certain extent. But since then, some arms transactions have also been involved.

The Germans were not surprised by this, but they did not leave the vanguard army behind. With the increase of various weapons in the Vanguard Army, the Germans also need to see how effective the new weapons are, so more attention is paid to the Vanguard Army.

"Martin, you don't look like recruits!" Lieutenant Rubman looked at the soldiers around him and whispered to Lieutenant Martin next to him.

"But they are indeed new recruits, but their spirits are good, much better than the soldiers of the Central Army of China." Because of the agreement between Germany and Germany, Martin's instructors had been withdrawn from the Central Army and were instead arranged by the German political axe to be in the vanguard army for inspection. After all, the vanguard army is a local army, not an orthodox central army, and I have nothing to say about this.

"The equipment of this vanguard army is also much stronger than that of the Central Army, you see this armored ambulance, I have never seen it in our emperor [***] team." Lieutenant Rubman touched the thick steel plate beside him.

"The Empire has it too." Martin's tone was already a little unconfident, "It's just that we haven't seen it yet." Thinking of the development of the emperor team in recent years, he has plucked up confidence in his heart that the emperor team will always be the first in the world.

This time, they also had the intention of inspecting the two armored vehicles equipped in the 246th Regiment, but Zhang Lingfu had already arranged the personnel carrier as a mobile headquarters, and these two people were invited to the ambulance armored vehicle.

Liu Qing listened to their conversation in his ears, but did not turn back to interject. When he was at Peiyang University, he learned German from a German. It's just that he didn't boast when he signed up for the Vanguard Army.

Because he learned to drive by delivering medicine to his father, he was assigned to the tank recruit training department. During the training, he was commended for saving a trained recruit who was injured, but to his dismay, after a month of training, he was assigned to the medical squadron of the 246th Regiment. It seems that that once I said that I was dealing in Western medicine at home, and I also knew a little about medical assistance, I was sent to a medical team with relatively few personnel.

Before he could be depressed for a few days, the medical squadron was assigned an SDKFZ251/8 armored ambulance, and the leader of the medical squadron, Rabbit 56, also designated him as the driver of this armored car.

Although the SDKFZ251/8 armored ambulance had only three occupants, the two Germans were sitting in the wounded seats. Sitting next to him were Jiang Baoyu, who bowed his head in contemplation, and Rabbit Bayi, who was silent. Behind them sat the equally silent Zhu Sanqi and Zhu Qiliu.

Liu Qing glanced at the female field doctor of the former 83rd Army who escaped from Nanjing, and there was a wave in his heart.

It doesn't make sense for war to make women walk away from time to time. Not only are the conditions on the battlefield bad, but anything can happen, and it is normal for soldiers with red eyes to do something drastic, and in that era, the presence of women on the front-line battlefield was generally not recommended. Most of the women are placed in the rear of the battlefield, such as hospitals and communications.

Jiang Baoyu was also assigned to the relatively stable field general hospital in the rear of the 83rd Army because of her uncle, who was the chief of staff of the division. With the strength of her graduate of Chung-Ang University's medical school, she is also enough to take on the name of a war doctor. But not long after entering the 83rd Army, Nanjing fell, and she was separated from the team and came to Shandong with the evacuated vanguard team.

At the beginning, she signed up to join the base hospital of the Pioneer Army as a medical staff when she was alone and had nowhere to go, and gradually emerged with the solid foundation of Chinese medicine obtained by the dazzle of the Chinese medicine family. Due to the shortage of medical personnel in the newly formed infantry regiment, she volunteered to serve as a position doctor in the medical squadron of the newly formed 246th regiment. Although considering that she was a woman, this time the operation was not very dangerous, and Huang Tao of the base hospital temporarily approved her secondment.

Due to the lack of medical personnel, in the temporary establishment, there is a medical squadron of 50 people at the regimental level, a medical team of 12 people at the battalion level, and only a medical team of 3 people in the company, and the squad and platoon are all part-time hygienists. However, with the help of the convenient transportation of the vanguard army, the wounded soldiers can quickly be sent to the field hospital at the division level or directly to the base hospital for treatment. The role of the medical team is to resuscitate the first few or even a dozen hours.

"With this armored vehicle, it will be possible to rescue the wounded on the battlefield in time." Although Jiang Baoyu was bowing his head and pondering, he thought of the helplessness of the wounded soldiers he saw on the battlefield a few days ago.

Meng Xiang also thought of armored ambulances because he heard about Wu Sanshan using a tank to rescue the pilot. This time, with the 246th regiment, the action is also to test the status of the surname.

"This time it's a drill!" While Zhang Lingfu was familiar with the establishment of the 246th Regiment, he thought of the upcoming battle with regret. With the strength of the 246th Regiment, even if you don't have to plan and push it over step by step with your strength, you can suffocate the brigade to death.

"Urgent!" Rat 32 boarded the armored car with an emergency telegram, and after seeing Zhang Lingfu, he didn't say much and handed it over directly.

"Oh? The devil's strength there has increased to a wing? 119 Wing is all gone? Zhang Lingfu's words were a little excited.

"The command ordered us to stop advancing and wait for specific instructions on the next step!" Rat 32 said with a faint expression.

"According to intelligence analysis, it may be some directive from the command of the First Army, which somewhat deviates from the original plan of action of the Second Army. That's why this transfer is coming! Fan Chong frowned, guessing the intentions of the First Army of Devils.

"One wing is not much, it's a pity that Zhang Lingfu has only taken over for a short time, and it hasn't been integrated yet, otherwise it ......" Meng Xiang touched his chin and said.

"The 246th regiment sent a telegram requesting to continue the attack!" Rat Er handed over Zhang Lingfu's telegram asking for war, the message was impassioned, the writing was good, and he deserved to be a genius of Peking University.

"246 is still a recruit regiment, and many recruits haven't seen the battlefield yet! Once there is an accident, it is troublesome. When Fan Chong heard this, he shook his head slightly.

"Emergency!" Rat 2 turned out to be a telegram that the telecommunications staff officer hurriedly brought over.

"This is that Zhang Lingfu's petition again!" Meng Xiang shook the message in his hand and smiled, "There are only two words on it, kill the widow!" It's refreshing! ”

"This Zhang Lingfu! Don't wait for his three invitations. Tell him, yes! ”
