On Friday, December 1, Li Junhao presided over the ceremony of the official merger of the former French Concession Police Department into the police station.

Because most of the senior officers of the former police force have submitted their resignations, after the merger of the corresponding departments, the senior officers of the police department are basically the heads of the departments, and only the former criminal superintendent (deputy chief inspector) of the police force, Franco Ronner, was awarded the rank of senior superintendent and appointed as the head of the temporary department organization department, responsible for coordinating the merger and transfer of the various departments and arrest houses of the original police force.

Li Junhao specially talked to Rona to let him work with peace of mind and ensure the smooth merger of the two police agencies, and after the work of the major police station is straightened out, he will be transferred to the merged director of justice. His commitment keeps Rhone motivated.

Then, Li Junhao found the current Commissioner of Justice, Ove Fast, and told him to stand on the last shift with peace of mind and wait for Rona to take over; Subsequently, he would promote Fast to Assistant Commissioner and Chief Superintendent. This news also made him very appreciative, but Fast understood that this assistant to the director was much more powerful than the previous deputy commissioner of police!

He also handed over the task to Deputy Commissioner Berry Webb and the inspection department to carry out a round of internal inventory of nearly 4,800 patrols and arrests in the former French Concession, and after eliminating unqualified members, they were arranged to go to the police training center for rotation training, and it is estimated that a batch will be eliminated by then.

According to Li Junhao's plan, the armed forces of the concession can only be strengthened, not weakened, so another important task is led by Brown, the director of the command room, and the general affairs office is responsible for opening another round of new police recruitment for the entire concession.

Li Junhao himself also has an important job, which is to receive and reorganize the municipal guard force with 3,175 people. Originally, he had thought of merging this team into the International Merchant Order, because the two were similar in nature, and both belonged to the second level of the militia, but he soon changed his mind.

The International Chamber of Commerce is already complicated enough, and the situation of the Municipal Guard is similar, and if the two are grouped together, it will be even more chaotic and not conducive to their own control.

Therefore, he decided to transfer the municipal guard to the barracks at No. 256 Xiaoshadu Road and hand it over to the Wolf Warrior Brigade for training, while the 15th Infantry Regiment, which was originally scheduled to be transferred to Xiaoshadu Road, moved to the southern barracks of the former French Concession Municipal Guard, assumed the responsibility of defending the southern direction of the concession, and at the same time made preparations for the reception of the French army after the withdrawal.

——

With Li Junhao's order issued, Lieutenant Colonel Rupu, who has now lost a lot of weight, immediately sorted out his troops and led 3,000 officers and soldiers into the former French Concession.

The Municipal Guard, which had also received the order, was in a commotion, and the troops of the 15th Infantry Regiment had already entered their camp, and there was not a trace of any intention of pulling out!

Seeing this, he immediately ordered his officers and soldiers to control the entire barracks, and those municipal guards who were still packing up their things were driven to the playground and ordered these people to stand in line.

Lieutenant Colonel Lu Puxian, who was standing in front, took the roster sent by the Concession Police Station, and compared it with the team in front of him, showing a look of disdain - even if the 15th Infantry Regiment was once rotten when it was in Jinmen, it was better than these guys! No wonder Chief Panson said that it would be good if the Municipal Guard could be trained and half of the people were trained!

According to the roster, the original French Concession Municipal Guard had a total of 3,175 people, of which 1,800 Chinese were organized into the first and second brigades, 850 Vietnamese Beiqi people were organized into three brigades, 148 Russians and 377 European personnel were organized into four brigades, and the captains and most of the squadron leaders of each major brigade were French.

But after some counting, there are currently less than 2,700 people in the camp!

Under questioning, the Vietnamese Beiqi people were all there, and the few missing Chinese were sick and on leave, while a dozen high-ranking French officers and almost all the Russians and Europeans were absent, and according to the few European soldiers left, those people were going home or going out to play, which was normal for them.

Lieutenant Colonel Rupp was already laughing angrily - Commander Panson had said before that the situation of the Municipal Guard would not be too good, but don't worry too much, just how many people will take as many as you want!

Under the orders and supervision of the US military, more than 2,600 municipal team members were forced to pack their luggage and equipment as quickly as possible, board the bus in a queue, and then rushed to the military camp at No. 256 Xiaoshadu Road under the "escort" of a battalion of US soldiers, where there will be officers and soldiers of the Wolf Warrior Brigade waiting to receive them!

It has to be said that the Chinese are the most orderly, and the Vietnamese Beiqi people were brought to Shanghai by the French from Southeast Asia, out of awe of Westerners, there was no resistance at all, and all boarded smoothly; The European team members, who only have a dozen or so people, are in a lot of trouble, and they are reluctant to get on the bus for various reasons, saying that they will wait for the others to come back......

Rupp was not easy to talk to, and he didn't want to go, so he disarmed, tied them up, and threw them on the truck, and asked the adjutant to remember these people clearly, and together with the people who did not arrive, form a list, and send them to the wolf warrior brigade.

——

After the Wolf Warrior Brigade took over the Municipal Guard, it was placed according to the team and reported the situation to the police department.

In the afternoon of the same day, a notice from the Concession Police Department was posted on the bulletin board in front of the six sub-districts of the former French Concession, including the Central Command, Xiaodongmen, Mailan, Xiafei, Petain, and Foch, ordering all the municipal guards who had left the unit and had not returned to report to the camp, and those who did not arrive within 24 hours would be treated as deserters, and the concession army and police would want them!

The six divisional capture houses are being transformed into sub-bureaus, and the citizens are paying attention, and then they notice the notices, and they are all talking about it, this thing is interesting, there are people in the municipal guard who leave the team without permission and do not return!

Then came the news came that most of the Municipal Guard had been sent to the barracks in the Public Concession, where they were said to be subjected to rigorous training; And its original station is stationed in thousands of American soldiers, training every day, it should be very sophisticated!

In the past, many people had been bullied by the foreigner team (the fourth brigade), and at this time, they knew that there were more foreigners to deal with them, and they were all happily watching the excitement.

——

Hearing the news, Li Junhao instructed the Wolf Warrior Brigade that it must be dealt with seriously, and the specific measures were discussed and implemented by the four squadron leaders, and he waited to see the results.

In fact, he didn't care at all about the hundreds of Belarusians and Europeans, and now there are as many as 150,000 or 60,000 Shanghai expatriates plus Jews, and as many as millions of Chinese, and the total population of the combined concession exceeds 4 million, so there is really no shortage of soldiers!

If there is a problem, it must be treated, and it is a big deal to change the blood of the municipal guard team, and I don't believe that the training is not good!
