After Liu Cheng finished saying all the things that should be said, Zhang Mingyu waved his hand and said: "Hair military uniform!" ”

Some soldiers have already issued a set of brand-new military uniforms to more than 6,000 recruits, and each recruit received the new military uniform, and his eyes were full of excitement.

After the uniforms were issued, each soldier was issued with guns, and this time all Soviet-style rifles were issued, and this provisional first brigade will be a brigade fully equipped with Soviet-style equipment, and the rifles are the improved Mosinagan rifles, which have a longer range and are more powerful.

The commander of this provisional first brigade is naturally Liu Masheng, commander of the Third Infantry Regiment, and the deputy brigade commander is Liu Dalong, commander of the second company of the guard battalion.

The provisional No. 1 Brigade has three infantry regiments, a tank regiment, a machine gun battalion, an engineer battalion, and logistics personnel such as baggage teams, with a number of about 20,000 people, and of course there are only more than 10,000 combatants. The rest of the non-combatants are logisticians.

Originally, the three regiments of the second division would also draw some veterans from each regiment to form the third regiment, so far, the reading army now has three infantry divisions, one infantry brigade, one air force division, one tank armored division, one cavalry brigade, one heavy artillery brigade and one anti-aircraft artillery brigade. The rest of the special arms include Zhang Mingyu's guard battalion and the Ministry of Security, and since each regiment is equipped with engineers and baggage soldiers, it will not be introduced in detail here.

At this time, the total strength of the Reading Force was about 160,000 horses, including 110,000 infantry, and more than 50,000 air force, tanks, armored troops, cavalry and artillery units.

In addition, there are about 100,000 auxiliary troops such as baggage troops, engineers, etc., and a large number of civilians can carry grain, grass and ammunition for the reading army at any time during wartime, and transport wounded soldiers.

At this time, the deployment of the various units of the Reading Army was: the First Infantry Division, the Second Infantry Division (one regiment owed) were stationed in Taiyuan and the surrounding counties, and the Third Infantry Division was stationed in Guisui, Baotou and other places. The Fourth Division was stationed in the vicinity of Datong and Ningwu. The cavalry brigade was stationed in the area from Xinzhou to Yuanping, and the regiments of the armored division were stationed in various places.

Air force divisions were stationed in Taiyuan, Xinzhou, Datong and Ordos.

Looking at the boiling Yellow River, Zhang Mingyu shamelessly plagiarized a song "Yellow River" by Wang Anshi in the Song Dynasty: send Kunlun five-color stream, and a yellow turbidity through Zhongzhou. Blowing sand and waves for thousands of miles, turning to the side of the house has nowhere to go.

Tie Niu and the others next to him were so coarse that they didn't feel any surprise, but just blindly smirked.

And the chief of staff Liu Cheng praised: "The military seat is really both civil and military, and the talent of the pillars of the country!" Good poetry, good poetry! ”

"Hehe, the chief of staff has won the award." Zhang Mingyu said embarrassedly.

Soon the guard battalion began to cross the river, and all the way were under the jurisdiction of the Reading Army, so nothing unusual happened at all.

A few days later, Zhang Mingyu, Liu Cheng and others arrived in Taiyuan with the guard battalion, and at this time, the prisoner of war camp that Niu Tiangui was responsible for supervising had been completed, and the factories were still under construction.

After Zhang Mingyu arrived outside Taiyuan City, Zhang Biao and Ling Tianbao had already been waiting outside the city gate for a long time.

When the two saw Zhang Mingyu, they immediately saluted and said, "Junzuo, it's been hard all the way." ”

Zhang Mingyu replied: "There's nothing hard to do, what is the movement of the little devil during the time I am gone?" ”

As everyone walked towards the city, Zhang Biao replied: "According to the scout's report, there was no movement of the devils in Shimen during this time, and the commander of the devils stationed in Shimen, Sasaki, only knew how to gather some comfort women and said that he was addicted to wine and did not care about military affairs at all.

Now the devil's defense in Shimen is very lax. ”

"This commander of Sasaki can't sit for a few days, and I believe that in less than ten days, his boss will have to send him back to his hometown in Toyo." Zhang Mingyu raised his hand as he walked.

Not long after, Zhang Mingyu and others came to the military headquarters of the Reading Army.

After entering the military headquarters, Zhang Mingyu sat on the main seat, and then beckoned everyone to sit down.

After everyone sat down, Zhang Mingyu said: "I have decided to form a new army, this unit can carry out deep operations behind enemy lines and carry out difficult decapitation tasks. ”

"A new class? Could it be that the military seat plans to form a special forces brigade from the group? Liu Cheng asked.

"It's not as simple as a simple special combat team, the special forces I want can be airdropped by airplane, airdropped to any corner of the battlefield, and can perform any special mission at any time." Zhang Mingyu shook his head and said.

"Airdrop people?" Everyone asked in amazement.

"That's right, this new class of troops is called the Airborne Forces! Also called paratroopers. Of course, these airborne troops must be trained according to the training level of special forces, but these airborne special forces must be able to overcome high-altitude phobia and have a passable physical fitness. Zhang Mingyu nodded.

"What does the military seat mean to use our transport planes to airdrop soldiers?" Zhang Biao said.

"Well, the airdrop airborne troops must use transport planes." Zhang Mingyu nodded.

"Who's going to help us train these special classes? After all, we are all from the army, so it's okay for us to go to war, but I don't dare to let us jump off the plane. Ling Tian Leopard said.

"The establishment of the Airborne Forces is not an overnight thing, we not only need professional military personnel to train, but also lack of various equipment, and we do not have enough transport planes now, so this matter is only put forward first, the specific establishment of the Airborne Forces will wait until the arsenal resumes production, and we have enough transport aircraft of all kinds, I will ask the Soviet Union and Germany to send airborne experts to help us train the troops." Zhang Mingyu explained.

"By the way, Niu Tiangui, when will the buildings of each factory be completed?" Zhang Mingyu turned around and asked.

"If we want to complete the construction, it will take at least two to three months, after all, our factory is not only a gun factory, but also an airplane, tank and clothing factory. The project is huge. Moreover, the factory was built on a mountain, which made it extremely difficult to construct. Ushida stood up and replied.

"Well, we must speed up the construction progress, I will replenish you if there is a shortage of manpower, I will give you money if there is a shortage of money, and all the works must be completed by the end of March." Zhang Mingyu nodded.

"Yes!" Niu Tiangui stood up abruptly and snapped to the ground.

"Okay, let's dismiss the meeting if there is nothing to do, until the arsenal is completed, the divisions will not have combat missions, but the brothers must strengthen their training and not slacken." Zhang Mingyu stood up and said.

"Yes!" Everyone shouted in unison and responded loudly.
