Chapter 429 Ten Brigades
On March 26, 1938, the Wuhan Garrison Headquarters was officially established.
The headquarters is actually an empty affair, because President Chang, who is also the commander-in-chief of Wuhan garrison, does not work here at all, and Feng Yuxiang, as the deputy commander-in-chief, is just a decoration.
The real power department of the Wuhan Garrison Command is the General Staff Department!
You can know this by looking at the department settings of the General Staff!
Generally, there are only three or four departments of the General Staff Department. In addition to the combat department, the adjutant department and the General Affairs Department, there is at most one communication department. Some troops’ communication departments are not under the jurisdiction of the General Staff Department.
However, the General Staff of the Wuhan Garrison Command not only manages the Communications Department, but also the Military Service Department and the Military Service Department, but also adds the Industrial Department and the Construction Department!
There are more functional institutions than the General Staff!
Zhong Yi's division was completed, and all work of the General Staff Department was immediately carried out in full swing.
Yu Da, Lu Jixian and others have all found someone to work hard in the attendant room for many years, and they have graduated from the Whampoa Military Academy. They have also participated in the Army University and the Officer Training Corps. They have many old friends and family members. There is no problem finding a few subordinates with outstanding abilities and decent personalities.
...
Chen Jingan and the other five came to the door soon.
When they just graduated from the Luojiashan Senior Officer Training Corps, Chen Jingan and the other five were still full of confidence and passion.
Because compared with Huangpu students who graduated at the same time as them, Chen Ying'an and the other five were more than one step faster. Most of their classmates were still struggling with the battalion commander at this time, but they were already brigade commanders and had already joined the ranks of generals!
But after they officially took office, they immediately poured a basin of cold water.
Because the so-called 1st Brigade of the Guards to the 5th Brigade is simply an empty slate!
Their immediate superior, former Wuhan garrison commander and commander of the 94th Army, Guo Chan, was quite kind and gave each of them an infantry battalion, but the rest had to be found by them.
But what can Chen Jingan and the others do? They have no money, no food, no way, no way, and no way to support such a big scene!
Just when they were helpless, good news suddenly came. The Wuhan Garrison Command was abolished and the Wuhan Garrison General Command was newly established, with President Chang as the commander-in-chief, and Feng Yuxiang as the deputy commander. This was not the key. The key was that the person who served as the chief staff of the Garrison General Command was their classmate, Zhong Yi!
Moreover, Zhong Yi, the chief of staff, is also the actual head of the garrison headquarters!
After learning the news, Chen Jingan and the other two immediately joined forces to join the Wuhan camp.
As a result, as soon as I arrived at the entrance of the camp, I met the brigade commander of the 367th Brigade, Zhu Liangcheng.
Zhu Liangcheng's situation is slightly better than Chen Jingan and the others, but it is not much better.
After the German advisors were invited to reorganize the army in 22 of the Republic of China, all the brigades of the National Army only had two infantry regiments under their jurisdiction. If they were an independent combat unit, they could also be equipped with one battalion of war vehicles, artillery, engineers, and baggage.
The expanded 367 Brigade does not belong to any division, any army, and of course it is an independent combat force. Therefore, in the current building of the 367 Brigade, in addition to two infantry regiments, there should theoretically be one battalion of chariots, artillery, engineers and baggage troops. In addition, there are communication companies, guard companies and a health team directly under the brigade headquarters.
But the problem is that this is only theoretical, and in fact, almost no brigade in the entire country can be fully equipped.
Zhu Liangcheng didn't expect to be able to complete these units. The only thing he hoped was that the two regiments could be supplemented, because until now, the 367th Brigade was still only the old foundation of the 367th Regiment, with only more than two thousand people.
For this reason, Zhu Liangcheng also looked for the attendant room, but he didn't even see Lin Wei's people.
Therefore, when he heard that Zhong Yi had been transferred to the position of Chief of Staff of the Wuhan Garrison Command, Zhu Liangcheng was overjoyed and rushed to Wuhan camp at the first time.
The six people met each other and found out the location of the Wuhan Garrison Commander at the gate, and then came straight to the vice building of the Wuhan camp.
As a result, when he arrived at the garrison headquarters, Zhong Yi didn't see him and fell in the conference room to see Shi Zude and Liu Yuanlin.
Shi Zude and Liu Yuanlin have been working hard in the attendant's room for many years, so the news is naturally much more versatile than Chen Jing'an and others, so they came to the door earlier. It's not a pity. It's a waste of time to come because Zhong Yi is not here.
Chen Jingan and the other six met Shi Zude and two met, and they joked again.
"This is really not to know that you are going early, there are even early travelers." Chen Jingan joked, "Brother Zude and Brother Yuanlin, I didn't expect you two to be early!"
Shi Zude just smiled.
Liu Yuanlin said, "We have just arrived too."
Liu Futing asked, "Did you see Zi Ren?"
"No." Shi Zude said, "I heard that the 16th Army was very resistant, so Ziren rushed to coordinate himself."
Pan Zihe immediately felt energetic when he heard this and asked, "Brother Zude, what's going on? Why did I hear people say that Ziren wants to demolish the Sixth Army, the Sixth Army, the Thirty-Seventh Army, the Seventh Army, the Seventh Army, the Seventh Army, and the Ninety-Fourth Army, and all the soldiers are dispersed and added to our eight brigades?"
Shi Zude nodded and said, "It's true that the five soldiers are going to be demolished."
"My good!" Zhou Mengxiong said excitedly, "Five armies are ten divisions, and forty regiments. If we divide eight brigades equally, wouldn't it mean that each of our brigades be divided into five regiments?"
"What are you thinking? One division has only four regiments, and one brigade has five regiments? Why don't you go to heaven?" Shi Zude said angrily, "You were only half right just now. The 16th Army and other five armies will indeed be split, but the forty regiments that were dismantled will not be given to us."
"Only twenty regiments were distributed to us." Liu Yuanlin said, "and not eight brigades were divided equally, but ten!"
"Ten?" Zhang Buwu said in surprise, "Who else besides us? Which two other troops are also allocated to the establishment of the Wuhan Garrison Command?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a familiar voice suddenly sounded outside the door: "In addition to your eight brigades, there are also our anti-smuggling corps and Captain Zhou's police corps!"
When everyone looked back, they saw Sun Liren walking in with a policeman wearing a major general's uniform.
Sun Liren was straight and just raised his hand to salute after entering the door. However, the major general police bent over and bowed to Shi Zude and the others with a flattering face.
"I am honored to work with you, Zhou Erzi." The major general policeman bowed in groups and said with a flattering face, "Please take care of you, hehe, take care of you."
Shi Zude and others lazily clasped their fists and bowed: "It's easy to say it, it's easy to say."
