"Ministry and Political Department Order: The former 43rd Army directly under the independent battalion, and made outstanding achievements in the Battle of Guangde. In order to continue to promote our revolutionary army's courage to fight against Japanese pirates in the future, he specially ordered his troops to be expanded into a regiment. In order to commemorate the heroes who died in the previous battle of his troops, he specially approved them as the name of the four leaders. Because the war has not stopped, he sent them to the temporary 43rd Army."

The call from the 43rd Army Military Headquarters made everyone in the independent battalion department happy. Even Tang Dao, who had always looked bad, smiled for the first time.

He was originally under the rank of Army Colonel, and the expansion of the battalion into a regiment had no effect on his military post. However, if the troops were expanded like this, it means that the troops he could command were stronger and could contribute greater strength in this war.

With Tang Dao's approval, this expanded military order quickly spread throughout the camp, and the whole camp was filled with joy.

Compared with several chief officers such as Tang Dao and Lei Xiong, the expansion into a regiment has a greater impact on those company platoon leaders, which means that each of them can take a step forward with great determination, from company commander to battalion commander. Although it is only one level, many people will be on this gate for several years.

Unexpectedly, under Tang Dao, they took only more than a month to complete the path that most officers took years to complete.

Of course, in addition to Tang Dao's contribution, this also results from their own efforts.

From the establishment of the independent battalion to the present, they have wiped out at least several times their own Japanese troops. This is the reward they deserve and deserves it.

This is also the second good news that the Independent Battalion has received in the past half month. Although the main force of the Independent Battalion left first, it still slowed down its marching speed. As a result, nearly 50 new recruits recruited from local villagers in Pukou and Yue Yiman and his son. For this reason, Tang Dao specially stayed in the mountains and fields for a day for these exhausted people to repair the entire army. Therefore, it was not until now that the Independent Battalion arrived at Lingbi County outside Xuzhou.

The two troops of Gu Xishui and Lu Sanjiang also caught up with the main force and the main force the day before. If nothing unexpected happens, the entire battalion will enter Xuzhou City in 3 days.

Not only the independent battalion received the reward, but perhaps the Jinling tragedy deeply stimulated the upper class. In order to inspire the morale of the army, several miscellaneous troops who fought well in the Battle of Shanghai were all rewarded.

Tang Dao was in contact with several familiar military divisions and knew that they had also received military orders from the Ministry of Military Affairs on that day.

Although the 67th Army, the unpopular Northeast Army, suffered heavy losses in a series of wars, has preserved the complete structure of the first army and two divisions, not only has it not been reduced from the army to the division as in time and space, but has added an additional independent brigade organization, with a total of 5,000 people in the original structure of force.

But it looks quite generous. The 67th Army still needs to find a way to make up all the personnel and equipment. As for military expenses, I don’t say it will not be given, but I can’t give it now. To put it bluntly, it still means painting a big cake.

However, for Commander Wu, who was determined to fight against the war, this was just a trivial matter. He had already negotiated with the Sichuan Army Group through Commander Guo. If an infantry regiment is equipped with two Sichuan Army security regiments, one additional independent brigade and two infantry regiments are added, it is nothing more than giving one more infantry regiment equipment.

As for military expenses, maybe this person didn’t even think about how much he would get to that person!

The 128th Division of the Hunan Army was not expanded, but all the officers at the level of the division and brigade received the Baoding Medal of varying levels. The battalion company platoon and chariot-level soldiers and brave soldiers were awarded the Yunhui Medal, which is one of the most affordable gains in the miscellaneous army.

Another person who is familiar with Tang Dao has gained a profit is the 145th Division. This Battle of Guangde, the "Beggar Son" who hurriedly entered the battlefield, was considered to have a face for the Sichuan Army in front of the whole country.

Whether it was the Battle of Sihong, the Battle of Jiepai Village, or the Battle of Gold Harvest Cooperation with the Independent Battalion, the fierce Jing'an Army and the Guoqi Detachment blocked the fierce army of tens of thousands of troops in the mountainous areas of southern Anhui for half a month, and exceeded the deployment of the Jinling City Defense Command, but also annihilated thousands of Japanese troops, which was better than the dozen elite infantry divisions deployed inside and outside Jinling.

They received the reward of replenishing the military and political department, which was a pure German infantry division equipment. If the Sichuan Army Security Regiment team who had already set off from the mountain city was replenished, this infantry division that had been completely destroyed in time and space would have at least twice the strength before.

In comparison, perhaps the 43rd Army, which is currently affiliated to the Four Lines Regiment, has only received some irrelevant rewards in addition to honors and the additional regiment under his temporary organization.

At the highest-level military conference, the 26th Division of the 43rd Army was recognized as one of the five best infantry divisions in the Battle of Shanghai. This recognition should be the determination of the Ministry of Military Affairs to expand the independent battalion into a regiment-level unit.

However, after giving the 43rd Army a regiment to expand its forces and promising to add the 43rd Army a corresponding infantry regiment equipment, he rewarded the entire 43rd Army with a hundred thousand oceans. Even if he was sent, it was somewhat unexpected to Tang Dao.

In the past, because of the heroic battle of the 26th Division of the 43rd Army, the 26th Division was a stroke of his pen and ordered the 26th Division to be equipped with the entire division in order to build an elite infantry division and use it to inspire the entire army.

As a result, it has now become a group, and the equipment has been replaced by oceans.

In the end, Zhuang Shisan, the former official gangster, reminded Tang Dao, and Tang Dao suddenly realized that all this was due to the fact that the 43rd Army and the 67th Army were too close.

Now the 67th Army's strength has not decreased but increased. If the 43rd Army is given a full set of German equipment, the two elite infantry troops who are guarding each other will have a force of up to 40,000 to 50,000. The mutiny in Chang'an City has only been more than a year. With that political mind, he would not put such a large potential threat under his nose and pretend to be ignorant.

Even the so-called temporary compilation of the order to the Four Army Corps is just to transfer the Four Army Corps away at any time. This is not a sign of criticizing Commander Guo. You two armies fight side by side on the battlefield, which is necessary for fighting. If you leave the battlefield and maintain such an intimate relationship, you will not be happy to those who are superior.

Tang Dao, who figured out the key, could only sigh for the one who had such painstaking efforts.

The political skills of carrots and sticks are really good at playing the world's first-class. If they are in a peaceful and prosperous era, the superiors will consolidate their power and interests so much. People are always selfish and no one is a saint. But at this time when the country and nation are in danger, since they have already taken the highest position in the country and still do so, the situation is too small.

He can't blame him for the military aid of the world's largest industrial power in the future, but in the end he can only retreat to the isolated island. This is not only determined by the general trend of history, but also inseparable from his vision and pattern.

Of course, those are all decisions made by the big men. Tang Dao is now just a small wave in this historical torrent. He has no way to change so much, so he can only do the things in front of him first.

At present, the entire battalion was ordered to rest and rest in a small town outside Lingbi County, and then call the 43rd Army headquarters to inquire about the expansion.

The telegram from Comrade Lao Guo was also very simple: "The Ministry of Military Affairs ordered that Colonel Tang Dao, the former commander of the 43rd Army Independent Battalion, was appointed as the commander of the 43rd Army Four Army Regiment, and Lieutenant Colonel Lei Xiong, the former deputy commander of the 43rd Army Independent Battalion, was appointed as the deputy commander of the 43rd Army Fourth Army Regiment; In addition, the regiment headquarters had a deputy deputy of the 2nd Corps, a chief of staff, and a director of the Political Training Department of the lieutenant colonel, and a director of the Political Training Department of the lieutenant colonel, with 2,500 soldiers under its jurisdiction. All battalions and companies and platoons were arranged according to standard regiments. In addition, the position of director of the Political Training Department will be sent by the Military and Political Department, the promotion and position arrangements will be reported to the Military Department by the Fourth Corps. In addition, the troops and ordnances will be resolved by the Four Corps.

The military telegram was very clear that except for the two chief officers Tang Dao and Lei Xiong who were directly appointed by the Ministry of Military Affairs, the other school-level officer positions should have been decided by the 43rd Army, but the military department chose to trust Tang Dao and handed over all this authority to him.

However, this also comes at a cost. Tang Dao has to find a way for the shortage of personnel and equipment.

However, for the big guys in the 43rd Army headquarters, how could they not know the current personnel and equipment of the Four Army Regiment?

Using Jiepai to fight against Mouse Mountain and Jinkeng, Tang Dao swallowed half of the 145th Division in one go, but it didn't cause disgust in the 145th Division. The 145th Division headquarters also called the 43rd Army headquarters to express their gratitude after leaving the battlefield.

A thousand people in a battalion fought hard for a month, and as they fought, they turned into more than two thousand people. Tang Dao's unlucky operation completely blinded Comrade Lao Guo.

As for equipment, the 43rd Army's big bosses are even more hilarious.

The Independent Battalion originally robbed a lot of money in the battle to annihilate the 6th Heavy Artillery Brigade and severely damage the 36th Infantry Brigade, which made the two commanders drink and chat with him, just to get some benefits from him. The bitter look when Guangde divided the troops made Wu Dajun sad, and he left a large number of light and heavy weapons to him without hesitation.

More importantly, in the battle of the gold pit, he slaughtered most of the infantry corps. He heard from Brigade Commander Tong of the 145th Division that the seized 38 rifles were tied up like piles of firewood, and light and heavy machine guns were placed randomly like garbage, and there were infantry artillery and mountain cannons.

With the capture of this battle alone, his independent battalion could replace all the equipment into full Japanese, German, Japanese-style troops that switch back and forth at will. Who else can there be except them?

Short of people? Short of equipment? Who are you teasing?

Comrade Lao Guo said this just to let the heads of all brigades and regiments under his command balance a little.

It is said that the Sixing Regiment Headquarters decided, but the regiment headquarters has now established its position. Tang Dao and Lei Xiong. These two guys who have fought side by side since the Sixing Regiment Warehouse have even disobeyed military orders with their heads. The relationship is even more ironic than wearing a pair of shorts. What else can you do to unify your opinions?

To put it bluntly, it means that the selection of a regiment, including the deputy regiment position, is decided by Tang Dao, and the military headquarters has no intention of intervening.
