As early as a week ago, more than 5,000 veterans from Shanghai and more than 1,000 cadets from the officer training regiment had already entered the Jiangdong University Campus in advance.

At this moment, He Wenxi has gathered these veterans and students together.

After receiving Zhong Yi's permission, Xie Jinyuan immediately brought Yang Furui, Zhu Jiaju and Liu Yiyou to pick people.

When he was a little distance from Zhong Yi, Luo of Zhu's family couldn't help but say, "Captain, what do you think of joining the seat? Why did he give the 3,000 veterans and 500 trainees to the second team?"

Liu Yiyou also said: "Yes, the second detachment captain Cao Ziying is just a police chief. Does he know how to fight? Also, the commanders of the second detachment, one guard battalion commander, one patrol captain, and the other one is even an adjutant. Isn't it really that I underestimated them? Have they ever seen the Japanese?"

Yang Furui also said: "I also think that the participating officers should give these veterans and student soldiers to our first team, and good steel should be used on the blade. It is really a waste to give them the second team."

"Okay, let's say a few less words." Xie Jinyuan frowned and said.

Yang Furui and others closed their mouths in a depressed manner and stopped talking.

...

On the other hand, He Wenxi also asked the same question to Zhong Yi.

"Sealing." He Wenxi also called Zhong Yi in public, and continued, "Whether in terms of qualifications, ability, or experience, the cadre configuration of the first team is stronger than that of the second team, but why do you have to give 3,000 veterans and 500 trainees to the second team? Isn't this a sprinkling of pepper with elite strength?"

You can't sprinkle pepper with elite power, it's actually He Wenxiti's suggestion.

This is also the experience and lessons learned by our party through countless blood during the Great Revolution.

Zhong Yi also adopted He Wenxi's suggestion, but when it comes to handing over the three thousand veterans and five hundred students to the Second Detachment, He Wenxi was a little confused about Zhong Yi's intention.

Zhong Yi looked up at the bustling campus and said in a quiet tone: "Director He, do you know what I am most worried about in this battle to defend Yinjiang?"

"What are you most worried about?" He Wenxi said, "Insufficient troops, insufficient training, and insufficient preparation work. This time we can say that we are hasty in the fight, and the difficulties are very great."

Zhong Yi shook his head and said, "There are ways to overcome the lack of military strength, insufficient training, or even insufficient preparation, but there is one that cannot be overcome, at least in a short period of time."

"There are even greater shortcomings?" He Wenxi said, "What shortcomings?"

"The concept is insufficient." Zhong Yi pointed to his head and said quietly, "I have discovered this as early as the Battle of Nanjing and the Battle of Wuhan. Most of the officers of the National Army have great conceptual shortcomings. They have shortcomings in their understanding of military affairs and their understanding of war, and they have great shortcomings!"

"I have heard of this." He Wenxi said, "But is this related to the distribution of veterans?"

"Of course it's relevant." Zhong Yi said, "If these veterans and cadets are assigned to the first detachment, the best result is to become another 88th Division or the teaching team."

He Wenxi couldn't help but think that it's great that the First Detachment can become another 88th Division or the teaching team.

Zhong Yi shook his head and said, "Maybe, you think that the first detachment can become another 88th Division or the teaching corps is already a good result, but I don't think so, because the 88th Division or the teaching corps are not the troops I want. Their senior officers are too rigid and their grassroots officers are too rigid."

"But they have at least combat experience," said He Wenxi. "In the battlefield, experience is very important."

"Cao Ziying and the others are indeed inexperienced." Zhong Yi nodded and said, "But it is precisely because they have no experience that they have infinite possibilities and experience that can be accumulated. When they have experience, they may become a group of sheep, but they may also become a group of lions, but at least it is worth our attempt."

Hearing this, He Wenxi understood Zhong Yi’s intentions a little.

To put it bluntly, Zhong Yi just didn't trust the old officers of the Central Army, the Gui Army and the Northeast Army. He believed that they had no growth potential and believed that no matter how outstanding they played, the 88th Division and the teaching corps, would never have performed better than this.

But to be honest, the 88th Division, the teaching corps did not perform well.

However, people like Cao Ziying and Zhen Yongmeng still have great plasticity, and those trainees can only have greater room for performance under their hands.

"I understand, I'm noticing." He Wenxi nodded.

"Just understand." Zhong Yi nodded, "You should focus on following up on the marshalling work of the Second Detachment. You must promote as many cadets as possible to serve as company-level officers."

"Yes." He Wenxi responded attentively.

After a pause, He Wenxi said again: "Time is still too tight. If we were given another month, the preparations for the Yinjiang defense battle would be much more sufficient than now."

Zhong Yi said: "Don't worry, there is enough time to prepare."

"Is time enough?" He Wenxi said in surprise, "Select, based on the intelligence provided by the underground party, the 13th Japanese Army has made preparations before the war and will launch an attack in two or three days."

"No." Zhong Yi said confidently, "I believe Jianwei will definitely try to destroy the first batch of arms prepared by Japan for the Yinjiang Battle. If this batch of arms is destroyed, it will at least be able to buy us more than a month!"

After a pause, Zhong Yi continued: "Of course, we must also plan the worst."

"I understand." He Wenxi said awe-inspiringly.

...

French restaurants in Shanghai, the Bund.

This time Pan Ren took the initiative to meet Fang Jianwei.

"Viagra." Pan Ren asked in a low voice, "What are you selling in this gourd?"

"What medicine?" Fang Jianwei frowned and said, "Aren, what are you talking about?"

"Viagra, it's boring to fight me at this time." Pan Ren smiled bitterly, "I'm talking about the arms prepared by the Japanese for the Yinjiang Battle."

After a pause, Pan Ren said again: "I'm sure this batch of arms is in the Jiangwan yard, so you'd better send another capable general to reconnaissance."

"No need to check it." Fang Jianwei said, "The arms are in the Jiangwan yard!"

After pausing, Fang Jianwei said again: "But Yoshida Jiro set up a trap in the Jiangwan yard, and this is still a very clever chain trap!"
