"Wang Yaowu? To be a good name. After hearing Wang Er's new name, Song Dinghan nodded in praise.

"yes, that's what I think too." Sitting next to Song Dinghan, Wang Yaowu said with some pride. "Thanks to the boss, now my name is worthy of the title of Minister of Military Affairs."

Looking at Wang Yaowu's appearance, Song Dinghan couldn't laugh or cry.

Ignoring the two people on the side, Luo Lun was reporting to Yan Guang about the recent situation.

In fact, there is nothing to talk about, that is, after learning that Yan Guang occupied Yucheng, some prefectures and counties in remote areas also sent people to express their willingness to join the military and political axe, and some who were unwilling to surrender were directly tied up and sent over by their subordinates. There were also some who wanted to take the opportunity to make trouble, but they were also suppressed by the 12th Brigade left behind.

"Yaowu!" After listening to Luo Lun's report, Yan Guang called out to Wang Yaowu, who was chatting with Song Dinghan.

However, maybe he was too involved in the conversation, or maybe he hadn't adapted to his new name, so Wang Yaowu didn't react at all after being called.

"Yaowu? Yaowu? He shouted twice in a row, and waited until Song Dinghan, who was talking to Wang Yaowu, pointed at him, and Wang Yaowu reacted.

"What's the matter? Boss? A little embarrassed, Wang Yaowu walked in front of Yan Guang.

"It's nothing, I'm just thinking about whether to change your name back..."

“……”

"How's the situation over there?" After signaling Song Dinghan on the side not to smile, Yan Guang asked about business.

Hearing Yan Guang ask about business, Wang Yaowu hurriedly replied. "Boss, the Shu army prisoners you sent back have been selected, and more than 12,000 people have been selected, and now they have been organized into 4 artillery regiments and 2 infantry regiments for training. Peng Xiu's boy is now squatting there, just waiting for one of his artillery regiments and two infantry regiments to be trained, and then he will be pulled back to his own station to become a division commander. ”

"That kid—" Yan Guang shook his head with a smile. No wonder I didn't even see him when I came back. ”

Wang Yaowu and Luo Lun also laughed. "Boss, you don't know, that kid now wants to be a division commander, and he always says that he and Yang Shan came out together, why should he be the brigade commander Yang Shan be the division commander."

"Who let him have bad luck and caught the brigade commander when he drew lots." Yan Guang pursed his lips and revealed a black history.

"Anyway, that kid is finally going to get what he wants." Wang Yaowu said with a smile. "It also saves him from always bothering us in our ears..."

"You're so explosive to his old bottom, be careful that kid comes back to settle accounts with you." Tang Wei and Wen Jing, who were sitting on the side, laughed "haha".

Wang Yaowu "cut". "In terms of marksmanship, I am more accurate than him, in terms of fists and feet, I am better than him, even if he knows, how can he bear me?"

When a few people were laughing, Zhu Qinglan and Yang Shan happened to walk in.

"Ziqiao, Yangshan!" Yan Guang beckoned to Zhu Qinglan.

"Governor." Zhu Qinglan and Yang Shan hurriedly walked over and said.

"You're here just in time, and I'm about to talk to you about something."

Hearing Yan Guang say this, the others turned their eyes to hear what Yan Guang wanted to say.

"Actually, it's nothing, just want to talk about the distribution of the batch of arms bought from the Germans and the British."

"Oh?" At this time, Wang Yaowu, Zhu Qinglan, and even Yang Shan all concentrated their attention, especially Zhu Qinglan and Yang Shan, who were the direct users of this batch of arms.

After everyone in the audience had quieted down, Yan Guang cleared his throat.

"As you know, at present, our Sichuan Army has a total of two and a half divisions, namely Yangshan's 2nd Division, Ziqiao's 3rd Division, and Peng Xiuna's 12th Brigade. In addition, there are two and a half divisions being formed, namely the 1st Division and the 5th Division, and the other half division will be integrated with Peng Xiu's 12th Brigade to form the 4th Division..."

"Except for the 3rd Division of Ziqiao, which is all made in Hanyang, the weapons used by other troops are very mixed, such as the 2nd Division and the 12th Brigade, which use fast guns and old-fashioned Mauser guns, while the newly formed two and a half divisions use newly produced fast guns from the arsenal and the older Lin Dengming and Martini..."

"I bought 60,000 1888 commission rifles and 10,000 Browning M1900 pistols from the Germans and the British, respectively, and the batch will arrive in a month. After the arrival of the goods, I will allocate 40,000 strokes to Yang Shan, your 2nd division, and the remaining 3 divisions will be reequipped, and the existing 5 divisions in terms of pistols will be reequipped with Browning..."

Several other people nodded, especially Zhu Qinglan, who now uses Hanyang-made in his 3rd division, so he doesn't need to change his clothes.

"There are also 200 field guns and 100 mountain guns I ordered, it turned out that because of our lack of equipment, except for the 3rd division of Ziqiao, each division was only equipped with one artillery battalion, and after the light artillery I ordered arrived this time, each division was changed to a 5 regiment system (4 infantry regiments and an artillery regiment)." Saying that, Yan Guang smiled at Zhu Qinglan. "Some of the guns of your artillery regiment are old, so let's replace them with us this time..."

"Thank you, Governor..."

"Also, now the artillery regiment uses a 3-company and 6-gun system, and when the guns I ordered arrive, they will all be changed to 4-company and 6-gun system." During World War I, countries generally adopted the system of three companies and four guns, that is, each company had four guns, and three companies were a battalion. At that time, the squadrons, such as the Beiyang Army, used a 3-company and 6-door system, that is, the number of 18 doors in a battalion, which was much stronger in terms of firepower and reaction speed...

"Really?" Zhu Qinglan and Yang Shan were pleasantly surprised, if it was really changed to a 4-company and 6-gun system, then each division could have 72 guns.

"Of course." Yan Guang nodded and continued.

"There is also an arsenal that seems to have begun trial production of mortars, and if the trial production is successful, a direct mortar company can be added under each regiment..."

"Oh..."

Compared with 75mm mountain artillery and field artillery, Zhu Qinglan and others are obviously not interested in mortars, but it is no wonder that compared with the huge mountain artillery and field artillery, the size of the mortar is too slim, and it does not look like it is very powerful.

Shaking his head, Yan Guang knew that he needed to wait for the mortar to come out and let them see the power before he could reverse their perception.

"As for the ordered 3000 Madsen machine guns and 400 Maxim machine guns ..."

When it came to machine guns, Zhu Qinglan and the others sat up straight, after all, they had all heard of the role of heavy machine guns in the defense of Yangxia, although that role was only for the Beiyang Army on the attacking side.

"Each division is equipped with a machine gun battalion directly under it, and the regiment is equipped with a machine gun company directly under it, and it is also 4 companies and 6 guns, and the 5 divisions have a total of 240 Makqin heavy machine guns, as well as Madsen light machine guns, so there is no need to get any direct subordinates, one light machine gun per squad, and 2,160 for the whole army..."

After listening to Yan Guang's distribution method, Zhu Qinglan, Yang Shan and others can simply be described as having their eyes shining. Because if the 5 divisions of the Sichuan Army are really configured according to Yan Guang's dictation, then by the end of the reorganization, the firepower of these 5 divisions will be at least the strongest in Asia...
