Putting down the documents in his hand, Chen Shao also let go of the worries in his heart.

The casualties in this Sino-Japanese battle were so large for the first time since the establishment of the People's Army, and this incident was always like a thorn in Chen Shao's heart, and when he thought of it, he was extremely uncomfortable. Compared with the Japanese casualties, such a record can be regarded as a rebellion. In any case, this is the first time that the KPA has suffered so many casualties. Chen Shao was a little worried about what the consequences of this incident would cause, but as a result, things not only did not go as Chen Shao feared, but also developed in a good direction.

Instead of blaming the army, the families of those who died in battle were proud. Because the soldiers killed and wounded in this battle, each one can be said to be a hero, and they exchanged their lives for a great victory, which will be recorded on the hero monument in the future and admired by thousands of people in later generations. And the army has not forgotten them, not to mention the one-time 100-month military salary, that is, some follow-up policies, and the continuous military salary for ten years, what is the concept now, this money is enough for a family of four to live peacefully for more than 20 years.

Compared to the previous treatment of serving as a soldier under other warlords, such treatment is unimaginable to all family members. When their relatives went to serve as soldiers, they all expected that there would be today, but what they didn't expect was that there was such a thing as blood money in this world. In the era of warlords, many soldiers were forced, or directly came to arrest the strong man, and as soon as they were separated from their families, they were separated from each other, not to mention meeting again, if one day they really sacrificed, the people in the family still don't know when they died.

After the mission of the condolence group was over, the consequence was that although each recruitment point in charge of recruitment was still crowded, the scale of the registration was several times larger. When a soldier has such treatment, not to mention the high salary, you can also receive a blood pension after death, if there is no hard rule on age, I am afraid that the crowd who come to sign up will be stronger at this time.

Chen Shao has always pursued the route of being an elite soldier, and there are various restrictions on being a soldier. Eighteen to twenty years old, in good health, only children, newlyweds and children are not accepted, and it is also stipulated that only one person from each family can join the army, unless the number of brothers exceeds four, two can join the army at the same time.

The deeds of this condolence group were exposed by newspapers and introduced in detail on the radio, and combined with the words and rumors of the families of the casualties, a wave of enthusiasm for serving as soldiers was set off in the land of China. At this time, in the hearts of the majority of the people, being a soldier is equivalent to supporting the family and glorifying the ancestors.

The document that Chen Shao had just finished reading recorded this incident in detail, and while he was relieved, he was also deeply surprised. He didn't expect that this matter would have such a big effect. Originally, he wanted to do his best to help the families of the deceased, and it also made Chen Shao's heart feel better. It's not that Chen Shao is too daughter-in-law, it's not that he is too emotional, it's just that there are some things that Chen Shao can't face indifferently. Those soldiers who died in battle, they all had families, some were sons, some were husbands, some were fathers, some were older brothers, and some were younger brothers. No matter how you say it, they are all Chen Shao's soldiers, and they all sacrificed for the great cause of China.

Now that this matter has been settled, Chen Shao picked up the second report, which was sent by the military department, mainly to report on the selection of the Nanjing Northern Expeditionary Army and the Feng Army. The total strength of the warlords in the two regions exceeds one million, and the number of soldiers who need to be selected has reached more than two million, plus the countless armed forces such as security regiments and militia groups in various places. Now the work is halfway through, and half a million qualified fighters have also been selected. Coupled with the hot recruitment scene, the military department expects to wait for the completion of the selection of the two troops, plus after the recruitment is over, the number of soldiers in the People's Army can reach 250w, not counting the reserve force and the construction corps, and the armed police force is not counted.

At the end of this report, Chen Shao was also asked for instructions on whether the various recruitment points would continue to recruit troops.

Recruit, why not. On the basis of the regular army, Chen Shao also plans to train one million third-level soldiers every two years, and these soldiers will retire after two years of training and will not be counted in the reserves. It was now 1928, and according to Chen Shao's plan, in 1940, at least 600w of reserve force would be trained. The reserve force should also be maintained at 1.2 million, the size of the construction corps should remain unchanged, the armed police force should also have 1 million, and the regular army should also be maintained at 2.5 million every year. In this way, in World War II, China could pull out 10 million combat-ready troops at any time. As for the construction corps, according to Chen Shao's meaning, that is, the reserve force of the engineering troops in the future, and the strength of the engineering troops should not be underestimated. In the future, the army will have to take the mechanized route, and without the help of the engineering troops, without them to pave roads and build bridges, and without them to sweep mines and build all kinds of military fortresses, the combat strength of the entire army will be greatly reduced. However, according to Chen Shao's plan, the engineering corps will not set up a separate unit, but will cooperate with the group army or military region to be formed in the future.

Now that Japan has been defeated, there is no recovery for more than ten years, and there will be no sword soldiers at all, but it is not known who Japan will do in the future, at least Chen Shao has made a lot of moves in this regard. The German mustache is still a few years away from taking the throne. After this period of time, the world will at least present a peaceful scene, at least large-scale wars will not occur in the short term, but small-scale conflicts and wars will not necessarily occur.

There is one thing that is still a thorn in the hearts of the Chinese and Chen Shao, stabbing their hearts and blood. Chen Shao also spent a lot of time preparing for this matter, and the victory over Japan was the first preparation, and the arms sales were the second preparation for this matter. While making money, arms sales are not a deterrent. At this time, seeing China's strong military industrial capacity, will the countries that have not yet recovered from World War I dare to break out a full-scale war with China? As long as there is a rational leader, he will not be willing to use the current situation to conflict with China. But then again, can an irrational person be a leader?

Chen Shao carefully sorted out the thoughts in his heart, and then wrote his opinions in the report. Now all the departments in the southwest have been perfected, not to the scene when they just took Guangdong, there is a lack of cadres everywhere, more than ten years of educational development, the entire southwest region has poured into a large number of talents, and the universities will graduate many college students with excellent grades every year, and they are all important cornerstones of the composition of Chen Shao's various departments. At this time, taking the whole country, although there is still a slight lack of officials at all levels, it does not have much impact on the operation of the department, but everyone is relatively tired, and it is good to overcome it.

Now in political and military affairs, they can handle many things by themselves, but when they encounter some major problems, they will consult Chen Shao. This has nothing to do with ability, but the entire southwest is developed by Chen Shao, many things Chen Shao did not let them know too much, some strategic issues, must come to ask for instructions, this is Chen Shao's requirements. Don't talk about others, even Jiang Baili and Cai Yi, it is not clear how powerful the People's Army is now, and what else they don't know. Wang Yunshan has now disappeared in front of everyone's eyes, although they often meet, but Jiang Baili, Cai Yi and others don't know what task Wang Yunshan is performing. The system of the army, and the secrecy regulations, made them afraid to ask more. Although the commander of the independent artillery unit is still Wang Yunshan, Jiang Baili has been managing it for a while.

For many military and political cadres, especially those in high positions, in their eyes, Chen Shao has always been shrouded in a veil of mystery. Whenever Chen Shao revealed a little, there were bigger questions waiting for them. Just like Wang Yunshan this time, he is Chen Shao's first student, and he is Chen Shao's closest person, in this world, except for Xie Yuxin and Chen Yun, Chen Shao is the closest to those students. Wang Yunshan has always been the commander of the independent artillery unit, and the current artillery scale is about the same as that of an army, but it is all conventional artillery, although it is all heavy artillery, but for Chen Shao, who grew up with missiles flying all over the sky in later generations, such a force is far from enough. Perfect engineer Sergey. The appearance of Korolev and the emergence of the rocket train program allowed Chen Shao to see the dawn of the future of China's real strategic artillery.

Wang Yunshan likes artillery, Chen Shao understands this very well, otherwise he would not have let him be the commander of artillery at the beginning, and he has been until now. In order to give better play to the power of real strategic artillery in the future, Wang Yunshan was transferred by Chen Shao some time ago and participated in Sergei. Korolev's laboratory, to understand the real power of the future strategic artillery. Familiarize yourself with them and understand them in order to make better use of them.

Time was quietly lost in Chen Shao's handling of government affairs, and the last document was Kong Hong's report. He is the old man who has been with Chen Shao for the longest time, his son Kong Wenhong is a general, and he is also one of the few high-level people in the southwest.

In this report, Chen Shao was only routinely reported on the screening of officials in Nanjing and Feng. There is also a report on the specific progress of the projects to rebuild the future capital, as well as the construction of the monument to the heroes.

After Chen Shao finished processing these documents, dusk had quietly come.

Chen Shao has always had two offices, one in the base, which is Chen Shao's home, and the other is the government office building in Nanning. At this time, he was in the government office building in Nanning. Chen Shao's office is on the sixth floor, and the windows are open to let the warm breeze blow on his face. The sun had set in the distance, leaving only an afterglow on the horizon.

Chen Shao's heart is inversely proportional to the landscape in the distance, and in his heart, China at this time is like the rising sun, no matter what aspect.
