Chairman Chiang went around the thunderous anti-Japanese vanguard like a gust of wind, but it brought earth-shaking changes to the troops: First, the identity of the troops changed, from a civilian armed force to a legitimate army recognized by the state, and joined the anti-Japanese war sequence of the Nationalist Government. Pen ~ fun ~ cabinet www.biquge.info two, solved the problem of the troops' logistics, to a certain extent alleviated the pressure on the troops' survival. Of course, Chairman Jiang and Liu Changfeng each have their own little ninety-nine, and while Chairman Jiang is optimistic about Liu Changfeng, he also underestimates Liu Changfeng, and the desire and the desire to make use of it coexist. Liu Changfeng also understood that Chairman Chiang was using himself, and now that the Japanese are aggressive, Chairman Chiang is breathless, and he has a strange commodity to live in, so he has gained his attention, and once the war situation is eased, he will inevitably become a thorn in his side and a thorn in his eye, and the situation will be different at that time.

When the news came out that the troops had accepted the reorganization of the Nationalist Government, most of the soldiers rejoiced, and although they were willing to sacrifice their lives for the country, they hoped from the bottom of their hearts that they would be recognized by the country and that they would receive the respect and honor they deserved. Only the officers and soldiers who joined from the 87th Division were worried about their own identity and discipline, and Lu Shaohui was not there, Du Yimin took the questions of the officers and soldiers of the original 87th Division and found Liu Changfeng.

After Liu Changfeng learned of Du Yimin's intention, he asked Du Yimin to sit down with a smile on his face and said; ''Commander Du is worried, when you lost contact with the large army in the defense of Nanjing, and joined the Thunder Anti-Japanese Vanguard, there is nothing wrong with it, every time there is a big battle, there will be a large number of soldiers who become stragglers, soldiers who have not returned to the original system abound, they also have to survive, it is not uncommon to join other anti-Japanese forces, besides, the current **** is in an eventful season, it is the time to employ people, they can't manage it, and they won't care about these things, you can rest assured. ‘’

Du Yimin hesitated for a while and said; ''I'm afraid they'll treat us as deserters, in which case the brothers will be wronged.'' ‘’

Liu Changfeng shook his head and said; "Don't think nonsense, you are the foundation and soul of this army, with me, no one will want to touch you, if there is a situation in the future, I will bear it with all my might, don't you still believe me?" ‘’

Du Yimin was relieved when he thought about it carefully, he was not even afraid of death, what else could he scruple about? The time he spent with Liu Changfeng is not short, he knows very well what he is like, he is fair, selfless, fair, and worthy of his trust.

A few days later, the news of Li Zongren's defeat of the Japanese army in Taierzhuang came, the whole country was boiling, and Taierzhuang won a great victory, officially announcing the destruction of the myth of the invincibility of the Japanese army, and in one fell swoop dissipated the haze that shrouded the heads of the people of the whole country.

The Thunder Anti-Japanese Vanguard was also jubilant, and everyone celebrated happily, but Liu Changfeng, Zhuo Wei, Situ Ming and Mo Haitao knew that the danger had only officially arrived at this time. Chairman Chiang's confidence swelled, and he transferred his more than 200,000 Central Army to the Xuzhou battlefield, planning to take advantage of the aftermath of Li Zongren's victory to fight a decisive battle with the Japanese army in Xuzhou. The defeat of the Japanese army in Xuzhou greatly shook the base camp of the Japanese invasion of China, and a resolution to increase the number of troops was quickly passed, and a large number of Japanese troops landed on the coast of Shandong, gathering more than 300,000 people from more than 10 divisions and regiments to attack the Xuzhou area, in an attempt to eat the main force of the Chinese army in one fell swoop. Later, Chairman Chiang found that the situation was not good, and hastily decided to abandon Xuzhou, and the one million troops assembled in the Xuzhou area hurriedly retreated.

In order to stop the pursuit of the Japanese army, Chairman Chiang ordered Cheng Qian, commander of the First Theater who had succeeded Wei Lihuang, to blow up the embankment of the Yellow River at Huayuankou, flooding more than 40 counties in Henan, Shandong, and Anhui, forming a large area of the Yellow Flood Area, where hundreds of thousands of people died tragically in the floods, and hundreds of thousands of people were displaced and homeless.

Liu Changfeng swore that he must prevent this disaster from happening, and to prevent this disaster, of course, he could not persuade Chairman Chiang with his mouth, but would use his own actions to change the situation of the war, at least let Chairman Chiang's troops retreat calmly, and not use the Yellow River to block the idea of the Japanese army's westward advance.

Liu Changfeng deeply understood that this was an arduous task, and the prerequisite for completing the task was that he had the ability to change the situation of the war, so he urged the troops to strengthen training, especially the newly formed special forces, which in his heart would play an irreplaceable role in the future. At the same time, he ordered Lu Shaohui, who was in Feiyun Village, Anhui Province, to lead his troops to Zhumadian, Henan, and he suddenly remembered Chu Ning'er and Su Wenwen who were still in Qinzhuang, they also had a radio station there, and he knew the frequency of the radio, so he asked the signal corps of the telecommunications department to send a telegram and asked them to come to Zhumadian as well.

The troops have also moved toward regularization, various combat departments have tended to be perfected, field hospitals have been set up, and college students from Beiping have also been quickly assigned to make the best use of their personnel. Dai Li also sent several military commanders to the unit and set up a liaison group. The logistical supplies promised by Chairman Chiang also arrived in an endless stream, greatly improving the food of the troops, and the soldiers also received their salaries for the first time, and earth-shaking changes took place in the vanguard of the Thunder Resistance Against Japan.

Since the victory of Taierzhuang, there has been an endless stream of nearby villagers who have come to join the army. In Zhumadian, the vast majority of young people who wanted to join the army chose the Thunder Anti-Japanese Vanguard instead of the Temporary 10th Division of the regular army stationed in Zhumadian, in their words, that is, the Thunder Anti-Japanese Vanguard had better food, strong weapons, and cars. The scale of the Thunder Anti-Japanese Vanguard expanded rapidly, reaching the scale of 20,000 people, but this was far from enough, Liu Changfeng had two divisions of American equipment in his hands, enough to equip 36,000 people, plus Japanese equipment, enough to arm 40,000 troops, that is, there was still a big shortage of soldiers.

Liu Changfeng's biggest headache now is not the number of soldiers, but the scarcity of commanders, the army is full of a large number of recruits, most of them have no combat experience, and seriously lack the ability to survive on the battlefield, in this way, the ability of the commander is particularly important. Among the original three regiment commanders, Li Jie, Du Yimin and Hu Wanjun are obviously not up to the task, their ability is not up to it, they were still small company commanders two months ago, and it is inappropriate to promote them too quickly, this is related to the lives of thousands of soldiers, not child's play, therefore, Liu Changfeng thought twice and decided to let Situ Ming serve as the commander of the first division and Mo Haitao as the commander of the second division, Situ Ming and Mo Haitao also have no experience in commanding tens of thousands of people to fight, but they have a combat concept that is decades ahead of this era, With a good view of the overall situation and extremely high military literacy, they are the most suitable candidates, no one has raised objections to Liu Changfeng's decision, and no one has accused Liu Changfeng of cronyism, because the abilities of Situ Ming and Mo Haitao are obvious to all, and it can be said that they are expected by all.

In other aspects, Zhuo Wei is fully responsible for all matters of the special forces, responsible for training and operations, Zhuo Wei is also conscientious and does not dare to take it lightly, she understands that Liu Changfeng has extremely high expectations for this special forces, and sometimes the role of special forces is no less than that of thousands of troops. In other personnel arrangements, Lu Shaohui still served as Liu Changfeng's deputy, Zhang Song was the chief of staff of the headquarters, and Wang Feiyan was the quartermaster chief and logistics minister、、、、、

Time into May, not far from the day when the national government withdrew from Xuzhou, Liu Changfeng understood that the war was coming, and his own time was coming, taking advantage of the free time in the last few days, Liu Changfeng fulfilled his promise, and took Zhuo Wei, Li Rong, Chu Ning'er, Su Wenwen and Chen Ziyi and others, came to Lijiazhuang to visit Li Dong, the reason why he brought girls was to dispel the concerns of the Li family and bring Xiaojuan back to the army, he firmly believed that with Xiaojuan's intelligence, he would definitely help himself.
