Half a month has passed in a blink of an eye, the training of recruits is in full swing, and these recruits have begun to look like soldiers, and the day of Dragon Tsai's joy will come. Although Tian Yu is not a famous lady, nor is he a lady, but after getting along with Tian Yu's family, Tang Lao has a very good impression of Tian Yu's family, especially Tian Yu, a child who is really sensible, and it is rare that Long Zai has a deep affection for Tian Yu. Donald has been looking forward to this marriage for a long time.

Longzai's marriage is also a big event for the Tang family, and dozens of relatives rushed to Longzhou County to help in Tangjia Village behind Menghu Village. In the past few days, Wang Haitao has to face a large number of seven aunts and eight aunts when he enters the house, and his smiling face is gone. Wang Haitao had the heart to live in the barracks, but he was afraid that Tang Lao and Feng Gu would be unhappy, so he stayed in the barracks until late every day before going home.

However, Wang Haitao was not idle in the barracks, and in the past few days, Wang Haitao has made a list of officers at and above the three divisions and regiments, and will announce this list after the basic training of the recruits is completed and assigned to various units. Because he did not have a deep understanding of the independent division, Wang Haitao, the officer of the independent division, did not move this time, and it was the 91st and 92nd divisions that changed.

Finally the day of Longzai's joy came, early in the morning, Longzai got on the Buick car left in Longzhou County, and together with the best man of Tangshan Leopard, under the blowing and blowing of the drummer, walked to Tian Yu's house. Tian Yu's father bought a house shortly after arriving in Longzhou, which can be regarded as officially settling down in Longzhou City, and his son also got along with a nurse in Longzhou Hospital. Now that there is a son-in-law like Tang Longzai, and an in-law like Tang Lao, he can be regarded as having a foundation in Longzhou.

In the sound of firecrackers and drums, Long Zai and his party came to the gate of Tian Yu's house, followed by a complete set of wedding gifts. Long Tsai finally coped with the kindness of the woman's family, and then welcomed the bride into the house before the auspicious time. Naturally, there was a worship of heaven and earth and a grand banquet. The scale of this banquet was not even enough for all the guests in Wanfu Building. Not only the military, but even the county magistrate came to the restaurant. The result was that Long Tsai really went home lying down, and even Wang Haitao drank a seven-point wine, and Donald was even more drunk.

Long Zai got married, Wang Haitao gave him five days off, five days later, Long Zai returned to the barracks with a red face to report, Wang Haitao unceremoniously threw him to the training ground, and let him personally take his old troops for training. During this period of time, Wang Haitao also did one thing, that is, to distribute all the pensions of the sacrificed Guangxi officers and soldiers and to resettle the disabled soldiers.

Each sacrificial soldier received a pension of 100 silver dollars, and as long as he was from Longzhou, Wang Haitao personally sent the money to the door, and helped the families of the sacrificed soldiers who had practical difficulties as much as possible. As for the disabled soldiers, those who want to go home are also a settling-in fee of 100 silver dollars, and those who are willing to stay in Longzhou will try to arrange some work within their ability.

Wang Haitao's approach made him and the 90th Army win the hearts of the people in Guangxi, and many of the recruits recruited this time were family members of sacrificed soldiers. Of course, after knowing the identities of these recruits, the comrades-in-arms of the sacrificed soldiers will pull them into their own units as soon as possible and take care of them. Wang Haitao does not oppose this, or even supports it, because in a unit, there are veterans who care for and can trust each other, and the chances of survival after entering the battlefield will be doubled.

The basic training of the recruits ended after a month, and the recruits who had the next family naturally went to the unit to report, and the recruits who did not have the next family were uniformly distributed by the military training department. Of the more than 10,000 recruits, only a few dozen were eliminated after training, and Wang Haitao did not disband the reserve soldiers who recruited many recruits, and arranged all of them to the logistics department to form two logistics regiments.

After the new recruits were assigned, Wang Haitao convened an all-army meeting, at which Wang Haitao verbally praised and encouraged all the officers and men, and put forward the requirements of "strict training, hard work, striving for excellence, and making meritorious contributions to the enemy." At the meeting, Wang Haitao took out the military flag of the "Tiger Army" again, and raised this flag on the flagpole of the barracks together with the military flag of the 90th Army.

After the meeting, Wang Haitao convened a meeting of officers of the 90 th Army in the auditorium of the barracks, and this meeting was to announce the list of officers appointed to the 90 th Army. In the list, the independent division was also included under the name of the 90th Army, but the officers did not change, and the additional 5,000 soldiers were added to the ranks. The commander of the 90th Army must still be Wang Haitao, the chief of staff is Su Zuxin, and the deputy commander has added Tang Renxin in addition to Zhao Zhongwu.

Tang Renxin has gone through many major battles, both tactical application and battlefield command have satisfied Wang Haitao, and now he is promoted to the post of deputy army commander, Wang Haitao hopes that when he is not in the army, there can be a person who can command the overall situation, and Su Zuxin has no problem at the strategic level, and the on-the-spot command will be a little worse. Zhao Zhongwu is even inferior to Su Zuxin.

Zhao Zhongwu is still the director of the military training department of the 90th Army, while Tang Renli, the director of the logistics department, is in charge, and the deputy director is Tang Yisheng of the Jurong base. As a branch of the Logistics Department of the 90th Army, the Jurong base exists independently. However, in the near future, Wang Haitao does not need them, but the New Fourth Army will get supplies from them.

The commander of the 90th Division was Tang Yikuan, the former commander of the 271st Brigade, and the deputy division commander was Tang Longzai, the former commander of the 272nd Brigade. The commander of the 271st Brigade was served by Tang Yiqun, and the commander of the 272nd Brigade was handed over by Wang Haitao to Zhang Lingfu, who returned from injury. This appointment came as a surprise to many people, and even Zhang Lingfu could not believe it. In the 90th Division, except for Zhang Lingfu, which regiment commander did not follow Wang Haitao from Longzhou, but now Wang Haitao has crossed these old men and promoted Zhang Lingfu, who has the least seniority, to the position of commander of the 272nd Brigade.

Wang Haitao looked at everyone's puzzled expressions and said: "I, Wang Haitao, appoint officers, not by qualifications, but by ability! The ability of several regiment commanders of the 272nd Brigade is not bad, but I am more optimistic about Regiment Commander Zhang Lingfu. Wang Haitao's words made everyone thoughtful, and Zhang Lingfu was not only grateful, but also followed Wang Haitao with all his heart.

Zhang Lingfu served as the brigade commander, and Du Haifeng served as the commander of the 547th Regiment. The other officers remained largely unchanged. In the 93rd Division, the original three brigades were integrated into two brigades, each with three regiments, and those who were insufficient were supplemented by new recruits. The division commander is Li Yuanhong, and the deputy division commander is Mu Suzhong. Under the jurisdiction of the 277th Brigade, the brigade commander is concurrently served by Mu Suzhong, and the 278th Brigade, the brigade commander Huanggang. The three regiments of the 277th Brigade were: the 568th Regiment with regiment commander Li Chunshan, the 569th Regiment with regiment commander Wei Yongshou, and the 570th Regiment with regiment commander Liu Yuzhu. The three regiments of the 278th Brigade were: the 571st Regiment, with the regiment commander Zheng Dongdao, the 572nd Regiment, with the regiment commander Li Jieli, and the 573rd Regiment, with the regiment commander Xiang Wenbin.

The guard regiment of the 90th Army was expanded into a guard brigade, and the brigade commander was Tangshan Leopard. The following three regiments were all expanded from the original battalion, and the regimental commander was the original battalion commander. Similarly, the reconnaissance regiment was expanded into a reconnaissance brigade, and the brigade commander was Tang Xiaoshan. The establishment of the heavy artillery brigade remained unchanged, but dozens of artillery pieces of the Japanese-style 75th Artillery Regiment were transferred to two divisions, so that the artillery battalions of each division were expanded into artillery regiments.

Wang Haitao was going to make up for the artillery that the heavy artillery brigade lacked. The armored regiment was also expanded into an armored brigade, and the brigade commander was Wu Jianzhou, and the tanks needed for the expansion would also be replenished with the remaining tanks in the arsenal. After the appointment of officers at and above the regimental level is completed, the officers below either do not move, and those who are vacant are promoted by the officers at the lower levels. These things are to be worried about by the division commanders and brigade commanders of each division.

At the end of the meeting, everything was on the right track, and all kinds of training in the various units were also carried out; starting from the squad, that is, the veterans led the new recruits, and no one wanted to be compared with others in training; under the strict requirements of officers at all levels, the earnestness and hard training of all units even surprised Wang Haitao. And the most common phrase spoken by the officers on the training ground was "More sweat in training, less bloodshed in wartime!"

The troops were on the right track, Wang Haitao cared about the logistics department again, and tens of thousands of soldiers were added at once, and Tang Renli was busy all day long. When Wang Haitao saw him, Tang Renli was directing his subordinates to send all kinds of supplies to various regiments. Fortunately, Wang Haitao assigned thousands of reservists to the logistics department at once, so that Tang Renli could have enough manpower to transport supplies to various troops.

Seeing that Tang Renli was busy like this, Wang Haitao was embarrassed to scratch him too much, so he just pulled him to a warehouse, dropped a million silver dollars, and left the logistics office. Wang Haitao originally wanted Tang Renli to accompany him to the arsenal, the hospital and the pharmaceutical factory to have a look, but he has been back to Longzhou City for a month, and he has only been to the arsenal once, and Wang Haitao has not come to the hospital and the pharmaceutical factory at all.

Tang Renli couldn't leave, Wang Haitao could only go by himself, he took a few guards, and went to the arsenal alone. Now the Longzhou Arsenal is definitely famous, not only Li and Bai of the Gui Department often send people to buy weapons and ammunition, but even the surrounding Cantonese army, Guizhou army, and Hunan army have found ways to buy some weapons. Mortars and light machine guns of various calibers are now the hottest items in the arsenal.

Among the other weapons, semi-automatic rifles and submachine guns are less and useless, and the warlords can't afford to equip them, and the bullets are consumed too quickly, so except for a few officers who buy some to fill the façade, no one will buy them in large quantities. And light machine guns and mortars are different, five or six light machine guns, both in terms of performance and firepower are better than Czech light machine guns, especially after the use of 100 rounds of drums, the continuity of firepower is even more speechless, and under normal circumstances, a platoon has one or two such light machine guns, and the firepower of the troops can be raised to a higher level, so troops everywhere are willing to buy.

Not to mention mortars, who doesn't want to have a few mortars in their ranks? After all, this is artillery, and it is a weapon of great destruction in both defense and offense, and the reason why small Japan's troops can fight is that they have a large number of artillery? Their own troops also have several or even dozens of mortars, and what are they afraid of little Japan? Therefore, the mortars and shells in the arsenal are the best sellers.
