The most important reason why someone wants to give Chen Qingzhi a cold bench is because they are worried that Chen Qingzhi will take credit!

They were able to give Chen Qing an order not to allow the independent regiment to participate in the war, but if the independent regiment really made any moves, they couldn't do anything at all!

The Independent Regiment dispatched two battalions and took two airfields from the Devils, which made it not so convenient for the planes on the Devils' front line, which was also beneficial to the entire battle situation.

If you use this matter to trouble Chen Qingzhi, I'm afraid that the reason won't make sense at all.

Therefore, for the actions of the independent regiment, some people can only acquiesce.

However, what is surprising is that after the independent regiment took two airports, there was no new action.

It's as if this time he is just Chen Qingzhi wanting to express his dissatisfaction.

Of course, what no one knows is that between the two airfields, in the so-called enemy-occupied zone, the independent regiment has cleared an open space.

And in this open space, refugees continue to arrive.

The Independent Regiment is like a local security corps dedicated to receiving refugees.

Silently protecting the refugees who fled from the enemy-occupied areas.

At least, on the surface, it looks really honest.

As a result, Chen Qingzhi's application for recruiting a group of civilian coolies was also allowed.

After all, it is the practice of many troops to bring civilian coolies over when they go to the battlefield.

Once the war began, these coolies could be used to dig trenches, transport ammunition, etc., and if necessary, they could also be dragged to the battlefield.

The Independent Regiment is a special case, and there are basically no recruits until now.

But now that the independent regiment wants to recruit people, naturally there is no one to say.

However, the number of people required by the independent regiment is a bit too much!

10,000 people!

That's right, the independent regiment applied for a quota of 10,000 people!

Of course, this is actually because Luo Cheng's answer to Chen Qingzhi is that he will send 10,000 people over!

However, it is not that all of the 10,000 people are soldiers, in fact, there are some other members of the ninth column, such as doctors, students, children and other non-combatants.

The reason why Luo Cheng sent these people over was naturally to ask Chen Qingzhi to arrange them to a safe place.

After all, at this time, the enemy lines in North China had already become a mess, and these people stayed in the base area, only fearing that the danger would be even greater.

In fact, if possible, Luo Cheng would even send more non-combatants over.

But after all, such a big movement is too easy to be noticed, and 10,000 people is already the limit.

But fortunately, among these 10,000 people, there are also 5,000 soldiers!

Some of them are local militiamen, some are guerrilla fighters, and some are even elites who have just been treated in hospitals!

What if the good and the bad are uneven, Chen Qingzhi believes that he can bring them out!

At this time, in a very secluded valley, simple barracks have been built.

It is claimed to the outside world that this is a training ground for the people of the Independent Regiment, but no one knows, in fact, I am afraid that the equipment of an ordinary man is better than that of the soldiers of the Central Army!

The war waits for no one, and Chen Qingzhi can't really wait for the weapons sent by John to start training these soldiers, in fact, the so-called Minfu has already started training at this time.

Chen Qingzhi divided the 10,000 people into two parts, of which 5,000 were organized into a Minfu battalion attached to the Independent Regiment.

The other 5,000 non-combatants remained in the camp.

No one knew all the actions of the independent regiment, because after all, Chen Qingzhi was allowed to recruit people, and this camp was extremely secretive.

Of course, training is training, but in fact, a wave of discontent has already begun to brew in the independent regiment.

As for the reason, it was because other troops were fighting hotly, but the independent regiment could only stay here and do nothing.

Naturally, there were only a few people who knew about Chen Qingzhi's plan, and ordinary soldiers didn't know what Chen Qingzhi was thinking.

It is impossible for them to have complaints about Chen Qingzhi, so they are very dissatisfied with the North China Governor's Department.

For warriors, participating in the war is the most important thing for them.

At least, in the Independent Regiment!

The whole battlefield is hot, but the independent regiment has not moved, which makes everyone feel extremely suffocated.

But Chen Qingzhi was waiting, he was waiting for the 5,000 people to complete their training.

Fortunately, these 5,000 people already have a certain foundation, so in fact, after only ten days of intensive training, they are already able to go to the battlefield.

The training may be insufficient, and the combat effectiveness of the Minfu battalion may not be as good as any battalion of the independent regiment, but after all, they have been able to participate in the battle!

Everything is ready, then, it's time for the independent regiment to appear!

Chen Qingzhi has been looking for an opportunity, and he must find a reasonable reason to send troops.

After all, if those people are in a hurry, it will definitely not be good for Chen Qingzhi!

And on the 10th day, the opportunity came!

The West Village, a place that is not too important.

But at this time, it has become a battlefield.

And it's an important side battlefield!

……

Taiyuan, the provincial capital of Shanxi, has developed transportation and an extremely important strategic location.

But since the defeat of the Battle of Taiyuan in the third and seventh years, it has been occupied by devils!

And this time the North China counteroffensive, the first large-scale battle, is also aimed at recovering Taiyuan!

Originally, the second theater of war did not have too strong forces at all, and it could only take a defensive position against the devils.

But just as the devils continue to draw troops from Taiwan, North Korea, and the puppet Manchukuo to support, Lao Chiang at this time is also constantly drawing troops from all over the country to the second war zone!

Today's commander-in-chief of the Second Theater has been personally named by Lao Jiang, and Yan Laoxi can only be the deputy commander, but the actual command is jointly commanded by the North China Theater Commander's Department.

After all, in today's second theater of operations, it is expected that the number of troops that can arrive will reach more than two million!

That's right, it is exactly two million people, and this is not the absolute all, because now the devils are left in North China and the three eastern provinces, so to speak, Lao Jiang will not let go even if he tries his best.

It's just that, after all, like the Sichuan Army, the Gui Army, etc., it is not a simple matter for such a remote army to rush over.

So being able to gather two million troops in a short period of time is actually very good.

The Taiyuan counteroffensive campaign was the first large-scale battle of the entire North China counteroffensive campaign, and the commander-in-chief was Yan Laoxi, and the number of mobilized troops reached 500,000 people!

However, the strength gathered by the devils is not small, and in this battle, the devils also transferred a full 230,000 people over!

When the Battle of Taiyuan began, the Independent Regiment was still busy training the Minfu battalion.
