Chapter 1588 promotion to general

Principal Chang said: "If the Fourth Zhejiang-Fujian Battle does not break out in a short period of time, then the military pressure faced by the Zhejiang-Fujian War Zone will not be that great, and it will be unnecessary to concentrate so many troops in the Zhejiang-Fujian War Zone."

"That's the reason." Chen Bulei said, "The seconded armies can be built."

Principal Chang said: "If the seconded armies are allowed to be built, then there will be only three armies left in the Zhejiang-Fujian War Zone. Will the force be too thin? Once the Japanese army has abnormal movements, it will inevitably be hasty to temporarily draw troops from adjacent war zones. Do you have any good suggestions for this situation?"

Chen Bulei obviously had considered this issue a long time ago.

Chen Bulei said now: "Principal, you can consider splitting and expanding the 10th Army."

"Hmm? Split and expand?" Principal Chang's eyes lit up and he said, "You can tell me in detail."

"Yes." Chen Bulei responded and continued, "Although the third Zhejiang-Fujian Battle was a tragic victory, it was a victory no matter what. Especially the 10th Army had a great result. According to conventional rules, if you win a battle, you will inevitably have to be promoted and rewarded. In terms of qualifications, in addition to Cao Ziying, the nine division commanders of the 10th Army should also be promoted to commanders."

"Well." said Principal Chang, "Yan Ji, what do you mean is to divide the 10th Army into two armies, each armed with four armies, and each armed with two or three armed with two divisions or three armed with?"

Chen Bulei waved his hand and said, "This humble position is an amateur."

"I understand." Principal Chang said, "Okay, you go and do it first."

"I'm leaving." Chen Bulei bowed slightly and turned around and left the study.

Not long after Chen Bulei left, Chen Shi, He Yingpei, Xu Yongsheng and other senior generals came in one after another. They came to attend the meeting, and the topic was to commend the meritorious soldiers in the third Battle of Zhejiang and Fujian.

Because there are few people, I don’t go to the conference room and discuss it directly in the study.

According to the party-state practice, only the 10th Army in the third Zhejiang-Fujian Battle was qualified to receive commendation from the command center. As for the other eight armies, although they also made great efforts, they failed to achieve decent results on the battlefield, so they were not qualified to receive commendation from the command center, let alone promotion.

The discussion of the other eight armies ended soon, with the 10th army remaining.

He Yingpei said: "According to the precedent of the 41st Army, the 10th Army has won such a big victory this time, and it should be expanded. In addition to Cao Ziying, the other eight division commanders should also be promoted to commanders. Otherwise, it would be difficult to convince the public. What do the principal think?"

"It should be like this." Principal Chang nodded and said, "In order to distinguish it from the previous 10th Army, I don't think there is any need to restore the numbers of the 28th Army and the 91st Army. We should directly use the numbers of the New 11th Army to the 18th Army. The original nine division commanders, Cao Ziying, was promoted to the position of the General Police Office, and the remaining eight division commanders were all promoted to commanders."

Principal Chang agreed so simply, which was somewhat beyond everyone's expectations.

He Yingpei was particularly surprised. He said this just now, just to disgust Principal Chang.

Because the 10th Army was Zhong Yi's direct army, idiots knew that Principal Chang could not expand the organization of the 10th Army according to the 41st Army's rules.

But unexpectedly, Principal Chang simply agreed.

After a while, He Yingpei asked again: "Principal, if all eight division commanders are promoted to commanders, will the organization of each army also be based on the precedent of the 41st Army and have three divisions under its jurisdiction?"

"I think it's OK." Principal Chang agreed very simply.

"Uh..." He Yingpei was completely speechless now.

Chen Shi's face was already very embarrassed and he was almost crying.

Because the power of the Luojia system expanded too quickly, it was about to surpass the Civil and Wood system.

Chen Shi could watch the Luojia system expand to this level? That is obviously impossible!

Chen Shi whispered: "Principal, if all eight division commanders were promoted to commanders, and each army had three divisions under its jurisdiction, wouldn't the 10th Army become a super army with 24 divisions under its jurisdiction? According to the current strength of each division of the 10th Army, 24 divisions would be 360,000 people, this..."

The nine divisions of the 10th Army have different organizational structures than other armies.

In other armies, each division has about 9,000 people, some of which are slightly more, and only a little over 10,000.

However, each division of the 10th Army had a population of 15,000, which was equivalent to one and a half divisions of other armies. Now, the 10th Army was expanded into 24 divisions, which was very terrifying.

Principal Chang waved his hand and said, "After the expansion, the personnel establishment of each division under the 10th Army must also be consistent with other armies, and no longer have the previous exceptions."

Chen Shi said with a bitter face: "Even so, the 10th Army still has 240,000 people."

The 41st Army has 180,000 people, which is already exaggerated enough. Unexpectedly, we will create a larger-organized 10th Army, so how can they get along with the civil engineering system?

Principal Chang scratched his head and said in a deep thought: "The organization seems to be a little bigger."

"It's not a little bigger, it's too big." Chen Shi said, "It's too big!"

Principal Chang asked tentatively: "Otherwise, let's divide the 10th Army?"

Chen Shi's eyes lit up when he heard this and said, "The principal is clear and must be split."

"Well, that's it." Principal Chang said, "dividing the 10th Army into the 10th Army and the 42nd Army, the two armies each have four armies and 12 infantry divisions."

"Qiu Qingquan performed outstandingly in the third Battle of Zhejiang and Fujian, so let him temporarily act as the commander-in-chief of the 42nd Army."

Hearing this, Bai Chong couldn't help but say, "Principal, although Qiu Qingquan's qualifications are older than Zi Ren, his previous position was the chief of staff of the 10th Army. Now he has suddenly become Zi Ren's level. Isn't it good?"

After a pause, Bai Chong said sadly: "What's more, winning the third Zhejiang-Fujian Battle is certainly inseparable from the bloody battle of nearly one million soldiers on the nine armies on the front line, but it is also inseparable from Zi Ren's superb command. You can't express anything to Zi Ren and the commander-in-chief, right?"

Bai Chong's misunderstanding is that Zhong Yi should also be promoted.

Bai Chongbei originally thought that Principal Chang would definitely use excuses to shirk responsibility.

But the final result was completely beyond his expectations, and Principal Chang responded very simply.

"Jiansheng is right, Zi Renal should be promoted." Principal Chang nodded happily and continued, "The Ministry of Military Affairs can immediately issue a letter of official letter to promote Zhong Yi to the rank of general."

Hearing this, everyone took a breath.
