After staying up all night and sleeping for several hours, the "General" got up at noon and continued to inspect the newly formed troops of Qingtaidu.

A total of 3,500 people were organized into a brigade, with two main regiments and one supplementary regiment under the jurisdiction of the brigade, plus two direct troops under the brigade. The entire brigade has 2,500 "Hanyang Made", 500 "Huaji", and 20 heavy machine guns.

Although there are no cannons, there is a sharper armor platoon.

In addition to the armored platoon, the brigade directly has a reconnaissance company, communications company, baggage company, medical platoon, etc. It is not very complete, and the technical sergeant is seriously short of staff.

For example, there are only fifty female health workers in the medical ranks who are simply trained, and they can only do some battlefield rescue and bandage work, and they can't do anything else.

The biggest flaw is that the ammunition reserve is too small, with only less than 300,000 rounds currently. One is that the ammunition is expensive, and the other is that the war uses too much to consume.

The soldiers were recruited in the past three months, aged between 18 and 25 years old. Zhou Qingfeng was delicious and delicious, and with the coordination of the link network, it was almost equivalent to training for half a year to a year.

The supplementary team recruited late, but the two main teams trained for two or three months. They could do everything from basic queues, physical fitness, shooting, bomb dropping, and earth-sharing operations.

Military officers at all levels are focused on training, strengthening their ideas, and having a good abilities.

If you practice for another three months, this brigade will definitely be a qualified elite soldier, but now it will not wait for anyone. In the first half of 28, the underground organizations in Hunan were continuously damaged by the enemy, and a large number of comrades were arrested and killed, and the situation was in jeopardy.

It is of course gratifying to be able to suddenly have an extra unit to be the main force. The "General" felt that this unit was not weaker than the veterans who had been fighting since the Beiyang period.

Even this new army has stronger combat effectiveness. It is not only well equipped, but also because they are literate from officers to soldiers, have received cultural education, and know why they fight.

The heavy pressure brought by the ‘White Terror’ actually gave them strong spiritual power.

"Oh..., you guys had a good lunch."

Three thousand and five hundred troops were scattered in more than a dozen villages around Qingtaidu Town. There was a radio and radio collaboration. The brigade department had lunch in the town, and the cooking team delivered the meal to the town office.

Seeing the white rice and fat, the 'General' first smiled, and then suddenly sank his face, "Is this something I made for me?"

The old Huotou in the kitchen team was still wearing an apron, rubbed his hands with a strong accent, and said nervously: "I bought a pig in the town today. Now..."

"How often do you usually eat meat?"

"We eat meat every week. It's not that we can't afford it, but we don't have that much. But we must have enough rice. We also bought millet and opened a rice mill. If the villagers around us want to grind rice, they just need to send some firewood and the factory will crush it for free."

The old Huo Tou spoke a little confusedly and was not very good at speaking. He started by saying that he would eat meat, and soon he pulled the rice mill and kept praising the rice mill.

"In the past, I had to borrow stone mills to grind rice. Not only did I have to spend money, but I also had to pay a portion of the millet. It's great to have a rice mill now. I can do half a month's work in a day."

The rice mill is very simple, which is to use the mechanical force generated by the milling stick to peel the rice. This thing is not necessary to be purchased from outside, so Zhou Qingfeng found a carpenter and blacksmith in the village to build more than a dozen of them himself.

The pot-camcorder is also simple in technology and can be produced in Wuhan. This thing has many disadvantages, but the advantage is that it can serve as a power source by burning firewood, and the power is not small if it is more than ten or twenty horsepower.

It can not only be used to generate electricity, pump water, grind rice, saw wood, and even blow dryer for iron furnaces - it is simple and solid, and it is too useful.

Zhou Qingfeng has purchased more than 20 pot-and-cam machines, which are widely praised. He is recently trying to find ways to recruit technicians, purchase equipment and raw materials, and prepare to set up a machining factory by himself.

There is currently a lack of chemical industry in China, and it is impossible to import a large amount of fuel. It is not too much to build hundreds of thousands of pot machines. It can be used for 20 to 30 years, greatly improving labor efficiency.

Lao Huotou praised the rice mill to save the people's energy, and his face was filled with folds. After a long time, he remembered that the "General" was not asking this, and said that last month, Brigade Commander Zhou said that the price of grain would rise recently, so he bought a lot of grain from Wuhan to garrison.

When there was a company in the town, outsiders called Zhou Qingfeng "Company Commander". As the troops gradually increased, his name also changed, so that everyone called it like this. In fact, he was a "volunteer" and the kind who worked for nothing but did not get money.

It is very luxurious to be able to eat rice every meal in these days. The "General" is less than a thousand people in Pingjiang, and he usually has to mix grains for meals. As for eating meat, it is very suitable for fate.

The revolutionary officers sent to Qingtai to assist in training were surprised by the living standards here, and felt that Zhou Qingfeng was the regular army, and they were like peasant army. If they were to compare equipment, the contrast would be even greater.

According to Ma Ying, Zhou Qingfeng spent 500,000 oceans to equip the team in three months. Not to mention weapons, even the marching kettle to the back packaging equipment were all bought for money. The soldiers stood up and were very energetic.

With such a brigade-level team, Zhou Qingfeng took over a group of miscellaneous soldiers and made tens of thousands of people, and it would be easy to become a lieutenant general and a commander in the Fruit Party. With his ability, he would definitely be a general commander or even a warlord in a few years.

But this guy had no intention of taking power. Not only did he take the initiative to send officers to control the troops, but he also threw out the command power after he was trained. He himself even escaped.

But...this won't work.

Such a capable commander was eager to attract him to the inside and could not kick him away. As for Ma Ying, Fu Fengjun and others who mentioned Zhou Qingfeng's "joke" - revolutionaries have always been broad-minded and embraceful.

After the inspection, the "General" followed the comrades to discuss publicly and decided to propose to his superiors to recognize the combat effectiveness of the Qingtaidu unit and Zhou Qingfeng. Given that his ability is particularly outstanding, he should be given corresponding positions.

Pingjiang's troops were originally only more than 800, and Qingtai City continued to provide assistance. In the past three months, the troops had also replaced cannons. The troops' forces increased to 1,500, and their equipment was greatly updated, and their strength was nearly doubled.

Since June, the "Minister" has brought instructions from superiors, hoping that the "General" can lead his troops to revolt, take down Pingjiang County, rescue the revolutionaries detained in the county, and open up bases.

The 'Minister' also visited Qingtai three months ago, and felt that this place could provide some assistance to the troops after the uprising. But after three months, Zhou Qingfeng magically pulled up a large army, and Pingjiang was like a helper.

The ‘General’ stayed in Qingtai for a day before returning to Pingjiang. Zhou Qingfeng hid in Xiangya Hospital for a day, but when he came back, he found that the revolutionaries around him looked wrong. Fu Fengjun pulled him into the house and talked alone...

"The organization decided to reorganize the Qingtaidu troops into an army."

Damn it!

"You are the commander of the army, and I am responsible for ideological work."

Damn it!!

"Also, I hope you officially join us, and many comrades are willing to be your introducer."
Chapter completed!
