When Cai announced to the media again in early July that he would be heading north early next year, Chen Jingyun felt more and more dangerous.

In view of the deteriorating domestic situation, Chen Jingyun has made a new round of military adjustments!

The Sixth Division, which had been initially expanded, moved to the vicinity of Jinhua and Quzhou, mainly garrisoning the western part of Zhejiang and guarding against the situation in Shangrao, Jiangxi, and Huangshan, Anhui. The 1st Division was stationed in Jiaxing and Hangzhou, mainly facing the Shanghai area; The 2nd Division was stationed in the Huzhou area, mainly in the direction of Nanjing.

Then it was announced that the 7th Division would be expanded into a regular infantry division, and it would be temporarily stationed on the front line of Hangzhou and Ningbo.

In addition, the troops of the Fourth Division were also concentrated in the Wenzhou area, and the reinforced regiment of the guard division sent to Hangzhou District some time ago was transferred back to Fuzhou.

This arrangement is almost clear that Chen Jingyun is expected to invest heavily in Zhejiang. This is not difficult to explain, because the important surname of Zhejiang makes Chen Jingyun have to pay attention to it, and even to a certain extent, Zhejiang is more important than Fujian, as long as he controls Zhejiang, Chen Jingyun can raise an army, and if he controls Hangzhou, he can go east to Shanghai, north to Jiangsu, west to Anhui and Jiangxi, which can be described as a strategic place. Moreover, it can be expected that if the Beiyang Army goes south in the future, the northern Zhejiang region will definitely be the main battlefield, so Chen Jingyun even plans to move the headquarters to the northern Zhejiang region.

It's just that it's not time yet, and if you rashly get the headquarters to Hangzhou, it is estimated that the whole country will have to open their eyes and guess whether they are going north in a big way.

Since the 7th Division was also expected to be expanded into an infantry division, and the former 5th and 6th garrison divisions were also turned into infantry divisions, the garrison division system in the national army had already existed in name only, but the regular troops everywhere had little free time to defend. As a result, the local garrison would have to be re-established.

For this reason, the General Staff Department made a suggestion to Chen Jingyun that this time there would be no such unit as a garrison division, nor would it give an official number, but a garrison regiment, and each region would allocate a garrison regiment according to the situation, and the peacetime command of the garrison regiment would be under the direct jurisdiction of the headquarters. In wartime, it supports the regular army in the vicinity, and in principle, does not leave the boundaries of the province.

This time, Chen Jingyun wanted to separate the garrison troops from the regular troops, and he did not plan to upgrade the garrison division to an infantry division after training it was 7788, as before, so that the personnel and weapons would need to be changed many times, and it would not be much different from building a new infantry division. Because the requirements for soldiers were not high when the garrison division was formed, and because of the limited training and poor equipment due to financial problems, when the Fifth and Sixth Divisions were expanded into infantry divisions, great efforts were spent to rectify them, and the time and cost required were not much less than those of directly establishing an infantry division. In the report to Chen Jingyun handed over to Chen Jingyun after inspecting the Fifth Division in Yanping, several advisers did not hesitate to point out that with the current level of personnel and training of the Fifth Division, the guard division personally trained by the instructor could completely defeat the Fifth Division with only one reinforced regiment.

It was also this report that made Chen Jingyun abandon the practice of expanding the garrison division into an infantry division. Instead, the two should be completely separated, and when a garrison division was being prepared, it could have inferior personnel and inferior weapons, but the formation of an infantry division must strictly control the quality of soldiers and officers from the very beginning, and it must be organized and trained in accordance with the requirements of a regular infantry division from the very beginning.

Under such circumstances, the formation of garrison divisions will completely disappear from the ranks of the national army, and all future divisions will be infantry divisions, and the garrison troops will not be organized into divisions, and the garrison troops will not be used for field battles unless they are in an emergency.

In addition to the readjustment of troops, Chen Jingyun also made a new round of readjustment of the senior officers of the Nationalist Army, transferring Yuan Fang to the post of deputy chief of staff of the Nationalist Army, and Chen Weihua taking over the post of commander of the First Division. Although this arrangement seems to have returned to the General Staff and become the deputy chief, many people seem to think that Chen Jingyun's move is to transfer Yuan Fang back. Everyone is speculating about the reason, some people guess that it was because the 13th regiment was surrounded in the last Hangzhou battle, and some people say that Yuan Fang was suspicious of Chen Jingyun.

In fact, this is not, the most direct reason is that Chen Jingyun needs a general who has a deep understanding of northern Zhejiang to give him advice, and now among the personnel of the Fuzhou Headquarters, only Shen Gang and Lin Zhaomin have been to Hangzhou, but these two people have not been there for a long time, and they don't know as much as Yuan Fang and Ma Cheng have been there for half a year.

As for the post of commander of the Seventh Division, Chen Jingyun sent Lin Zhaomin down with a stroke of his pen and led the commander of the Seventh Division with the rank of lieutenant general, this arrangement is mainly because in the last battle in Hangzhou, Lin Zhaomin's strategic coordination ability was still good, and now he is placed in Zhejiang in advance, which can also give him time to prepare in advance, and in case the war breaks out in Zhejiang again, Chen Jingyun can directly appoint Lin Zhaomin to command the Zhejiang troops nearby. Of course, Chen Jingyun wouldn't tell anyone what he was thinking about, otherwise Ma Cheng and the others would not have to feel aggrieved in their hearts.

Then several other divisions also made slight adjustments, such as bringing back Li Jimin from Chaozhou and serving as the commander of the Fourth Division, and Chen Jingyun, the third division of Chaozhou, sent Shen Gang to take over. And Chen Kui, in addition to being loyal, this person's military quality is really not very good, and a big reason for mentioning Chen Kui at the beginning was because Chen Jingyun really couldn't find a reliable person to control the newly established Fourth Division at that time, and then simply used Chen Kui, who was born in his own army, to control the troops, and then equipped some professional officers to assist him. After so much time has passed, the national army has gradually been on the right track, and a large number of high-quality officers have come to vote, such as Shen Gang, such as Chen Yi, such as Jiang Fangzhen, Liang Xunqin and others. After these high-ranking officers were recruited, it was naturally impossible for them to stay in the staff headquarters forever as ordinary staff officers, and when they showed qualified ability and Chen Jingyun thought that their loyalty was enough, Chen Jingyun would slowly put these people down to command the troops.

Shen Gang was the first to become a division commander as a new candidate, although the rank was still a major general, but Chen Jingyun put him after the commander of the third division, and anyone in the national army system understood that Shen Gang's future may go further than those previous division commanders and deputy division commanders.

Of course, Chen Kui, as Chen Jingyun's descendant, although his ability is not good, but his loyalty is enough, and Chen Jingyun cannot directly demote Chen Kui, which will cause considerable concern among the elderly, so Chen Jingyun transferred Chen Kui from the position of division commander of the Fourth Division to the deputy commander of the Logistics Department, which is not a grievance against him.

In Chen Jingyun's personnel transfer, as many as half of the troops were involved, and the division commanders of the four main divisions were changed. Although Chen Jingyun has always grasped the right to appoint personnel, and who he wants to transfer is basically a matter of one sentence, despite this, the large-scale transfer of senior officers is still easy to cause turmoil in the army, so Chen Jingyun personally sent a telegram to the senior generals outside to appease them, so as not to make them think too much.

While Chen Jingyun was busy reorganizing the army, he was also busy with other things, after all, the rectification of the army could not be done in a day or two, such as the transfer of senior generals.

During this period, he also had to deal with government affairs, and then there were other miscellaneous things, such as the wedding of Chen Jinghai, the second son of Chen Jingyun's third uncle, on July 13, and Chen Jingyun, who was a cousin, had to go in person.

Perhaps because of the influence of Chen Jingyun's last wedding, this Chen Jinghai's wedding is not a traditional style, but a combination of Chinese and Western weddings. Because the Chen family is clear about Chen Jingyun's current powerful position, and Chen Yu's side said a few words about not being too extravagant, so as not to have a bad impact on Brother Yun, so this wedding seems to be much more low-key, I have to say here that this woman is actually involved with Zheng Zuyin, and she is the maiden family of Zheng Zuyin's second son's wife, that is to say, after turning a corner, Chen Jingyun and Zheng Zuyin are involved in the relationship between in-laws.

When he first talked about this family business, the third uncle also specially asked Chen Jingyun if there would be any impact or something. Chen Jingyun himself doesn't care about this, although he and Zheng Zuyin can be regarded as political opponents, but in the general direction, the interests of the two of them are basically the same, at least there will be no life and death in a short period of time, and there is no need to be afraid of embarrassment. Besides, the power struggle has reached a fierce moment, let alone an in-law who has nothing to do with it directly, even if it is an in-law or something like that, it will not be soft.

The wedding was very low-key, and there were only 100 people who attended the wedding, except for the Chen Mansion and the women's clan, the rest were all from the wealthy families in Fuzhou, and there were fewer people from the military and political sides.

After all, this is just Chen Jingyun's cousin's marriage, and Chen Jinghai has not held a public office, so naturally no military and political dignitaries pay attention to him.

After standing in the auditorium and talking to people softly, Chen Jingyun said goodbye first and prepared to stay inside for a while, his identity was too sensitive, standing in the hall basically everyone paid attention to him, if he Chen Jingyun continued to stand, it is estimated that those people would have to keep watching, and they didn't dare to say a word, and they could only let these guests talk freely if they left.

After Chen Jingyun entered the inner room, Chen Jinghai brought his newlywed wife to visit, Chen Jingyun greeted him with a smile, and then Lin Yun on the side took out a small box very appropriately and said that it was given to the bride as a wedding gift, and then Lin Yun took the bride over to whisper.

Chen Jinghai was left standing alone in front of Chen Jingyun, Chen Jinghai was only twenty-one years old, a few years younger than Chen Jingyun, and had just returned from studying in the UK at the beginning of the year.

Looking at this slightly restrained cousin, Chen Jingyun took the initiative to speak: "Listen to my mother, you have already graduated?" ”
