"Principal Mingjian, the sacrifices of these nine divisions are of course worth it." Lin Wei nodded and said, "But some people don't appreciate it very much."

Principal Chang's brows immediately frowned, and of course he could understand Lin Wei's implicit voice.

The New 38th Division and the eight honorary divisions were fully equipped. When the troops were strong, Yu Jishi, Hu Zongnan, Chen Shi and others naturally thought they were popular and tried every means to get a share! By the same token, these nine divisions would also receive enough attention after being incorporated into the 18th Army, the 74th Army, the 1st Army, and the 29th Army.

But now, the New 38th Division and the Eight Honor Divisions have been crippled, leaving only three or two of Agou and Amacao. At this time, not only can the 18th Army, the 1st Army, the 74th Army, and the 29th Army be able to enhance their combat effectiveness, but instead divide up their originally small supply of troops and weapons and equipment.

At this time, the commanders of each army could no longer care about them as much as before.

In other words, according to the original plan, if the New 38th Division and eight honorary divisions are organized into each unit, they will most likely be excluded or even suppressed by various commanders. This phenomenon is very common in the army.

For example, when Zhang Zongchang defected to Zhang Zuolin and was arranged to Heilongjiang to protect the mountains and forests.

For example, after the Central Plains War, the Northwest Army was very distressed when it was first incorporated by Young Marshal Zhang.

In short, who made you not a direct line? If you are not a direct line, you deserve to be excluded and suppressed. This is a routine operation in all factions of the Party and the country.

If it were another army, Principal Chang would not bother to care.

The Party and the State have more than 200 divisions. If each division has to be managed, wouldn’t he be exhausted?

However, when it comes to the New 38th Division and eight honorary divisions, Principal Chang felt that it would be a pity to do this. No matter what, these nine divisions have participated in the Wuhan Defense War, and they are all troops that can fight tough battles! If they are given all the troops and given enough equipment, they will immediately be nine elite divisions!

Therefore, it is probably inappropriate to assign these nine divisions to each army as originally planned.

After a moment of silence, President Chang asked again: "Weiran, what do you think you should do?"

Lin Wei said: "Principal, I think that troops like the New 38th Division and the Eight Honor Divisions, which have participated in major battles and tough battles, should focus on supporting them!"

Principal Chang said: "Weiran, you want to be more specific, how to support it?"

"Yes!" Lin Wei responded and said, "The best replenishment of troops should be used to supplement these nine divisions, and the best weapons and equipment should be used to supplement them first. Even graduates from Central Military Academy should be used to supplement these nine divisions. In short, make every effort to build these nine divisions into a model army!"

After pausing, Lin Wei said loudly: "Build into a model like the Central Military Academy Teaching Corps. The combat effectiveness of this unit will be far greater than that of the Central Military Academy Teaching Corps!"

Principal Chang said: "What do you mean is to put these nine divisions together and form a group army?"

The practice of the Party and the State is that all generals will only be promoted but not surrendered. Sun Liren and Zhu Liangcheng are now division commanders, so it is impossible to be demoted to them as brigade commanders. Therefore, if nine divisions are put together, they can only be a group army, because one army can only have three divisions at most, and a legion can only have six divisions at most!

"Yes! These nine divisions have had experience in fighting side by side in Wuhan. They know each other's roots and bottom lines. There is no obstacle to cooperation. At least there will be no disputes between each other or even pulling each other back." Lin Wei nodded and said, "And it is best if Zhong Yi is actually in charge of the command of this army."

Lin Wei is just talking about the matter. If these nine divisions can be organized into an army and handed over to Zhong Yi to command, then the future prospects of this army are really exciting!

"By Zhong Yi's command?" Principal Chang looked at Lin Wei deeply.

Principal Chang knew what Lin Wei meant. Lin Wei did not mean to let Zhong Yi serve as the commander-in-chief of the group army, because it was unimaginable to be the commander-in-chief of the group army with Zhong Yi’s background, age and qualifications! If Principal Chang really dared to issue such an order, there would be nearly 100 commanders in the entire army, and more than 200 division commanders would not be able to rebel?

Lin Wei was not talking about the Chief of Staff of the Army Command, because Zhong Yi has served as the Chief of Staff of the War Zone. According to the party-state practice of only promotion but not demotion, it would be inappropriate to let Zhong Yi be the Chief of Staff of the Army Command again, so it can only be made Zhong Yi as the Chief of Staff of the Army Command!

But this is something that President Chang cannot tolerate, too soon!

If he hadn't known Lin Wei well, Principal Chang would have doubted whether he had been bribed by Zhong Yi.

Lin Wei didn't care at all and continued, "Principal, it's time for Zhong Yi to make a suitable arrangement."

Principal Chang was silent when he heard this. With the abortion of the counterattack plan and the fall of Wuhan, the establishment of the Dabie Mountains War Zone had become a joke, so it is certain that the establishment of the Dabie Mountains War Zone was abolished.

In the future, there will be no Dabie Mountain War Zone, but only Dabie Mountain Guerrilla Zone.

Bai Chongbei will no longer serve as the commander-in-chief of the Dabie Mountains Guerrilla Zone, and this position will be held by Li Pinxian.

The Dabie Mountain War Zone no longer exists, and the Dabie Mountain War Zone General Staff Department does not exist, so Zhong Yi, the chief of the General Staff Department, cannot be regarded as the director of the General Staff Department, so he must arrange a place to go!

It is impossible to return to the Honorary First Division, because Zhong Yi can only serve as the commander of the Honorary First Division. Not to mention how Zhu Liangcheng arranged this way, Principal Chang would not agree to the matter of Zhong Yi being the commander of the teacher. He finally found an excuse to transfer Zhong Yi from the Honorary First Division with a high sound. How could he let him go back?

From the day Zhong Yi graduated from Luojiashan Officer Training Corps, Principal Chang's position on Zhong Yi was that he had to rely on his command skills, but he could not actually control the military power! Therefore, Zhong Yi could only serve as the director of the staff department, and at most he could only serve as the chief of staff. It is absolutely not allowed to let him serve as the chief of the army!

If you can't go back to the Honorary First Division, then let him continue to stay in the Dabie Mountains? Be the chief of staff in the Dabie Mountains guerrilla zone?

Bai Chong was still tolerant, and Zhong Yi could play a role under his hands, but if Zhong Yi was arranged to serve as the chief of staff under Li Pinxian, he would probably not be able to get involved in anything.

It would be a pity for such a talented person to stay idle in the Dabie Mountains.

But then again, it is not possible to have Zhong Yi as the chief of staff of the group army.

Because the Chief of Staff is not the Director of Staff, he is already considered half the head of the army!
Chapter completed!
