    Hu Congjun's army reorganization work is proceeding vigorously. He has very rich experience in reorganizing the army, which Zhang Xian has to admire.

    First of all, it¡¯s a question of soldiers.

    Because at this time, the 11th Reorganized Division already had a car battalion that used cars for mechanized transportation. The transportation tasks of the baggage regiment, which had a large number of people and livestock, were greatly reduced, and even the mules and horses were much less busy.  The extra people were equipped with infantry weapons and became official combatants.  Hu Congjun organized these forces into the reorganized third division and turned them into regular regimental and battalion-level combat units.

    In addition, in order to enhance the combat capabilities of the reorganized third division, Hu Congjun swapped the reorganized 49th brigade to which the division belonged and the reorganized 18th brigade of the reorganized 11th division. In this way, the reorganized third division had a  The elite brigade has become a combat force with the reorganized 18th Brigade as the main force, and can soon be put on the battlefield.  In order to enable the other two brigades of the reorganized Third Division to adapt to combat as soon as possible, Hu Congjun combined the two newly formed brigades, the reorganized 75th Brigade and the reorganized 114th Brigade, with the reorganized 11th Brigade and the reorganized 114th Brigade.  The Eighteenth Brigade swapped a regiment to serve as the backbone of the two newly formed brigades, using veterans to drive new recruits.

    In this way, the reorganized third division soon had strong combat capabilities.

    Then, there is the question of general.

    Personnel arrangements became particularly important at this time, so after reporting to the Ministry of National Defense and Chiang Kai-shek for personal approval, Hu Congjun was promoted to Brigadier Qin, the commander of the reorganized 18th Brigade, to the commander of the reorganized Third Division, and the three brigades of the Reorganized Third Division.  The brigade commanders were all from the reorganized 11th Division.  The commander of the 18th Brigade was promoted from Commander Yi of the 53rd Regiment, the commander of the 75th Brigade was promoted from Wang Jing, the former chief of staff of the reorganized 11th Division, and the commander of the 114th Brigade was promoted to Commander Xia from the former 18th Brigade.  Deputy Brigadier was promoted.

    At the same time, the reorganized 11th Division also made some personnel adjustments.  The Reorganized 49th Brigade, which was transferred from the Reorganized Third Division, is also a new brigade. Although it has an old designation, it contains mostly new soldiers. Therefore, at this time, Hu Congjun also assigned this brigade to the 118th Brigade.  A group was swapped.  When these regiments were swapped, their numbers were not swapped.  The brigade commander of the 49th Brigade, the latest to be reorganized into the 11th Division, was recommended by Zhang Xian, Xu Haibo. The post of deputy commander of the 11th Brigade left by Xu Haibo was concurrently held by Chief of Staff Wu Hua.

    After Hu Congjun's reorganization, the reorganized 18th Army has been completed and has begun to take shape, becoming a powerful force.

    At this time, although it was a reorganized army, it was actually equivalent to the group army during the Anti-Japanese War.  The Eighteenth Reorganized Army has two reorganized divisions: the Reorganized Third Division and the Reorganized 11th Division. Under each reorganized division are three reorganized brigades, and under each reorganized brigade are three combat regiments. In fact, it has been  There are more than 60,000 people in the establishment.  The reorganized division here is actually an army during the Anti-Japanese War, and the reorganized brigade is the original division. This is already a quite large combat force.

    ¡°At the same time that Hu Congjun vigorously integrated the 18th Army, the Ministry of National Defense assigned a rapid column to the 11th Reorganized Division, which actually strengthened the combat capabilities of the 11th Reorganized Division.

    For this fast column, it is basically the light tanks brought by Mei Zhanyuan.  After reorganizing the 11th Division to plan the Central China Suppression in Wuhan, Mei Zhanyuan's chariot convoy was transferred back by the Shangqiu Sui Department. However, Hu Congjun had already tasted the sweetness of fighting with the chariots, so when he went to Nanjing to report on his work,  He specifically made a request to Chairman Chiang for a few tanks. Unexpectedly, Chiang Kai-shek immediately agreed and gave him not just a few tanks, but a fast column.

    This mechanized rapid column is a branch of the Armored Corps. It is composed of a tank battalion, a howitzer battalion, a heavy mortar company, a bridge engineering company and an automobile unit. The tank battalion has 20 medium and light tanks.  There are many vehicles. The commander of this chariot battalion is Mei Zhanyuan.

    Mei Zhanyuan was very excited to be able to return to the reorganized 11th Division. This little battalion commander had been promoted to lieutenant colonel at this time. Although he was only a battalion commander, in fact, he was the commander of the chariot battalion.  The salary is equivalent to that of a regimental commander in the national army, two levels higher than an ordinary infantry battalion commander.

    At the end of February, this rapid column drove to Zhumadian. After reporting with Hu Congjun, Mei Zhanyuan immediately drove to Suiping to see Zhang Xian. In his mind, Zhang Xian had always been his worst fate, and also  The most admired leader.

    When he saw Mei Zhanyuan again, Zhang Xian also became happy, and immediately paid Xiong Sanwa to get some wine and food, and then went to his headquarters to support this old subordinate.  This time, Xiong Sanwa also sat next to two people. They had both been in the 74th Army, and they had shared life and death together.I waited for him, but he didn't show up for two days. Later, my mission was assigned, so I had to leave Nanjing.  But I asked the beggars on the side!  "

    "Oh, what did you ask about?" Zhang Xian asked eagerly.

    Mei Zhanyuan said: "They told me that the man was originally a soldier. Later, when he returned to Nanjing, he seemed to have been deceived. He lost all his money and was penniless, so he was reduced to that. There have been  It¡¯s been more than half a year!¡±

    Zhang Xian and Xiong Sanwa looked at each other in shock when they heard the news. Zhang Xian clearly remembered that when Gao Wei was released by the Communist Party, he said he was going to Nanjing to get his military status and then return home.  A friend¡¯s savings.  At that time, after the captured officers in the reorganized 74th Division were released, they would be reviewed, and those who had no problems would be forcibly retained.  In order to facilitate Gao Wei's actions, Zhang Xian specially wrote him a letter, asking Gao Wei to take this letter to go to Guo Wan, the commander of the Joint Logistics Headquarters, for help when he encounters difficulties.  After hearing what Mei Zhanyuan said today, it was obvious that Gao Wei was in trouble in Nanjing, but why didn't General Guo help him?

    This matter was like a stone that immediately stuck in Zhang Xian's chest. The three of them were no longer in the mood to finish the feast and ended it hastily. After Mei Zhanyuan said goodbye to Zhang Xian, he turned around  Zhumadian.

    Zhang Xian, who was lying in bed, could no longer sleep. He was tossing and turning, thinking about Gao Wei's situation. He wished he could go to Nanjing immediately to see what happened.  Gao Wei, this brother who has been with him since the beginning, has followed him through almost all the battles he has experienced. The relationship between the two is closer than that of real brothers. What on earth happened to him in Nanjing that caused him to end up like that?  What's up?

    After daybreak, Zhang Xian immediately wrote a letter to General Guo Wan, commander of the Joint Logistics Headquarters, asking him if a former commander of the 74th Reorganized Division named Gao Wei had come to see him.  But not long after, Zhang Xian received a reply from General Guo, telling him that no such person had ever looked for him.

    Obviously, Gao Wei did not go to the joint logistics headquarters to show Commander Guo the letter from Zhang Xian. Why?  Zhang Xian was puzzled.  At this time, Deputy Commander Yang Tao was arranged to study in Nanjing for two months. Zhang Xian immediately found Deputy Commander Yang and briefly introduced Gao Wei's situation to him. At the same time, he asked Deputy Commander Yang to find Gao Wei in Nanjing. If  If possible, it would be best to bring him back to reorganize the 11th Division.

    Yang Tao also knew Gao Wei and had been his regiment leader, so he agreed immediately.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
