Chapter 833 New Fourth Division

"Although our military rank has been demoted this time, we have more soldiers in our hands, and the military rank has not been demoted. After all, we still made money."

Some people's minds changed quickly, and they immediately changed their positions and became a member who agreed with the adaptation.

However, this change was met with overwhelming laughter and curses.

"When it was said that it was going to be adapted, you, Master Sui, jumped higher than anyone else, and it was because of your fierce opposition. Well, you are so shameless as a fool."

Sui Zhizhong blushed and accepted it calmly.

"It's not that we object, it's just that we can't accept it. Why did Commissar Huang become the division chief of staff when I became regimental commander? But now we have adjusted."

The original Fourth Army was reorganized into the Fourth Division, and the generals were also greatly adjusted.

Except for Bai Xiaoqi and Le Xinfeng, Yi Guozheng, the former deputy army commander, and Zha Shubing, the chief of staff, were all transferred away.

They went to the fifth division.

Yi Guozheng served as the deputy commander of the fifth division, and Zha Shubing served as the chief of staff of the fifth division.

As a result, there was a vacancy in the division headquarters of the Fourth Division.

After the operation of the headquarters, Le Xinfeng served as the political commissar and deputy commander of the fourth division.The chief of staff was Huang Long, the former Political Commissar of the Seventh Division, who was also Sui Zhizhong's old partner.

Huang Long went to the division as chief of staff, but Sui Zhizhong changed from division commander to regiment commander.

This gap made him a little unacceptable, so he really complained a lot.

"Although I am the chief of staff of the division, my rank is the same as yours, but the job position is different."

According to the military system of the new army, the chief of staff of the division is the rank of colonel, and the head of the [-]-strong regiment is also the rank of colonel.

Therefore, Huang Long's new appointment is not considered a promotion, nor is Sui Zhizhong's demotion.

In fact, everyone still understands Huang Long's role as chief of staff.

After all, he used to be the first-rank military officer of Daming, the pinnacle of generals.If it weren't for joining the new army too late, the position and rank would not be so low.

"Since no one has any objections, let me announce the appointment of all the officers of the Fourth Division."

After unifying their opinions, Bai Xiaoqi saved a lot of trouble and officially started the sequence of adaptation.

The officer of the command department stood up and attracted everyone's attention.

For this adaptation, everyone will go to a new location.It is both a challenge and an opportunity.

The officers of the division headquarters have already been determined, and the focus is on the appointment of regiment-level officers.

"Sui Zhizhong, head of the Thirteenth Regiment, and Xie Qian, political commissar."

Sui Zhizhong and the people beside him quickly stood up and accepted the appointment.

Xie Qian served as captain, platoon leader, and company commander in the original First Army, and then served as regimental commander and deputy brigade commander in the Third Army, and finally transferred to the Fourth Army as brigade commander.

They were originally Sui Zhizhong's subordinates, and they cooperated with each other proficiently. This combination will soon form combat effectiveness.

"Lu Zhiqian, head of the fourteenth regiment, and Xiang Zuolin, political commissar."

This appointment is not surprising, because they are all old people from the Fourth Division.

Among them, Huang Long looked at Xiang Zuolin with relief in his eyes.

When he was in Lushun back then, Xiang Zuolin was his right-hand man.Later, he returned to Shandong together with him, and Xiang Zuolin also entered the military academy to study.

Because of solid military technology and experience, he quickly stood out and became an outstanding graduate.

This time he became a regiment-level political commissar and colonel.

"Zhu Dingyan, head of the fifteenth regiment, and Xia Congsheng, political commissar."

Zhu Dingyan is a star figure in the army, and everyone takes his rise for granted.

When the army was full of Baiding, Zhu Dingyan, who was born in the nine great families of Dongchang Prefecture, performed outstandingly.

Like Sui Zhizhong, he was also adjusted from a division-level general to a regiment-level general.But without any complaints, the preparations started early.

"Sha Rushang, head of the sixteenth regiment, and Qi Jiaxuan, political commissar."

The two were from the original Eighth Division, Sha Rushang was the political commissar, and Qi Jiaxuan was the deputy commander.

The division commander is Zhu Dingyan, and the chief of staff is Xia Congsheng.

The four people went to two groups respectively, which was evenly divided.

These are the four main infantry regiments of the new Fourth Division.

According to the plan, the strength of each infantry regiment is [-] people, and they can completely fight on their own.

In addition to the four infantry regiments, there are three regiments.

"Hu Shu, head of the security regiment, and Weng Zisheng, political commissar."

The new adaptation eliminates brigade combat units and greatly reduces civilian personnel.In the same way, the importance of the division headquarters has increased linearly, and there must be sufficient defense forces.

The Guard Corps came into being.

In this way, the division headquarters has more than [-] troops under its direct control. Not only can it protect itself, but it will not involve the energy of other regiments when they go into battle.

"Qiu Jinpeng, commander of the artillery regiment, and An Shenghua, political commissar."

All other regiment-level combat units are expanding, and the Artillery Regiment is no exception.

The new artillery regiment will have two heavy artillery battalions with [-] heavy artillery pieces, two infantry battalions with [-] infantry artillery pieces.

"Pang Xinpei, head of the engineering corps, and Miao Niansheng, political commissar."

The Engineer Corps is the smallest of all regiment units.

Because they are only responsible for division-level operational engineering tasks, and there are engineering companies attached to each infantry battalion below, and they do not need the support of the engineering regiment.

So far, the organizational structure of the Fourth Division has been completed, and all generals have been properly arranged.

"According to the order of the High Command, our Fourth Division must be completed before the new year. There are still more than three months. Everyone must hurry up and not delay."

The Fourth Division quickly entered the state, and the generals of various ministries rushed to Dengzhou to start receiving soldiers.

In addition to the original [-] troops of the Fourth Army, the High Command added more than [-] troops.

These recruits came from the militias of Xuzhou, Lianghuai and Songjiang respectively.

Just outside Dengzhou City, people from all walks of life arrived one after another.

The first thing is to assess the militia.

Militias have been around for varying lengths of time.

Some have trained for a long time and have mastered combat skills and organizational discipline proficiently.And some are just like Xiaobai, who can't even tell the difference between front, back, left, and right.

After some investigation, the militiamen from Xuzhou performed the best.

At the beginning, Xuzhou was heavily populated by militiamen, and they learned a lot. They also received a lot of help from the regular army.

"Our Thirteenth Regiment is the main force among the main forces, so these good soldiers should be given priority to us."

Sui Zhizhong gave full play to the hilltop doctrine and prepared to rob people.

He is shameless, and the others are not too shy.

"Everyone is a new team, why is your thirteenth regiment the main force among the main force? Just because of your big face?"

Lu Zhiqian cooperated well with Sui Zhizhong at the beginning, but this time he did not show any mercy when he robbed him.

"That's right. When it comes to fighting, it depends on our [-]th Regiment. When it comes to picking people, our [-]th Regiment gives priority."

Zhu Dingyan's body no longer shows traces of being from a scholarly family, and he is also very handy in playing hooligans.

In the end, the groups got into trouble, so they had no choice but to go to Bai Xiaoqi for an explanation.

"This matter must be handled properly, otherwise it will affect morale."

Le Xinfeng's reminder did not make Bai Xiaoqi feel embarrassed.

"What's so difficult about this? Pass the order down, and the whole army will start a big contest. Whichever regiment wins, the priority will be chosen!"

As an excellent student of Zuo Menggeng, Bai Xiaoqi has learned a lot of ways to manage the army.

Taking out a little bit at this time immediately turned the whole army into wolf cubs, eager to show off their skills.

Although the Fourth Division was still a new army, its morale was unstoppable like a volcano erupting.
