The average strength of 200,000 troops is six divisions, each division has about 30,000 troops, and under each division there are four brigades.

If calculated in this way, each brigade has nearly 8,000 people, and each brigade has four regiments. After conversion, each regiment has nearly 2,000 people.

This force is almost a standard regiment of the Eighth Route Army, but it is not enough for the People's Army, because in Su Yu's opinion.

Each regiment of our People's Army must at least ensure that it has a certain number of artillery. For example, each regiment must have at least the equipment of one artillery battalion.

After all, our People's Army has no shortage of weapons such as artillery, so there is no need to concentrate the limited artillery like the Central Army and the Eighth Route Army did.

Then focus on allocating it to certain units. In the People's Army, this is not the case. At least each regiment of the People's Army will have an artillery battalion.

To put it simply, our People's Army does not have a so-called main force group, because the whole thing is the main force group.

There is no so-called ace division. All six divisions of the People's Army are fucking main divisions. In the People's Army, Su Yu treats them all equally.

There is no way, who calls the People's Army heroic? It does not lack any weapons, so there will not be the so-called five ace troops like the Central Army.

In the People's Army, all of them are ace combat forces. No matter which unit is taken out alone, it can be used as the ace unit of the Central Army and the Eighth Route Army.

According to Su Yu's idea, the strength of a regiment in his People's Army should be about 3,000, which is just right.

A regiment has 3,000 men, so a brigade has 12,000 men, and a division has 48,000 men. Calculate it like this.

The total strength of the six divisions, plus the guard brigade and other things from Su Yu's headquarters, totals almost more than 300,000 people.

In other words, the strength of these six divisions can support up to 300,000 people, after the total strength of the People's Army exceeds 300,000 people.

Su Yu needs to consider expanding the company again. At that time, if the company expands again, it won't be as fussy as it is now.

Because the six division commanders were expanded again, there were six theaters, each of which was almost the same size as the current North China Theater.

In this way, the total strength of the People's Army could reach one million people. Su Yu estimated that his People's Army wanted to reach this point.

It will take some time. At the very least, he will have to bring the entire northern region of China under his control before he can develop to this point.

.....................

Otherwise, even if he takes over the entire North China region, Su Yu estimates that he can only develop the total strength of the People's Army to 600,000 to 700,000 at most.

In this way, when the top brass of the People's Army returned to their respective stations, the relevant appointments of the top brass of the People's Army were also notified to each soldier by Su Yu.

When these soldiers heard that the People's Army they belonged to had suddenly expanded so many troops, they were immediately shocked.

Good guy, from six brigades to six divisions, this span is not small, but then the hearts of these soldiers suddenly became hot.

Because of this expansion, it means that many positions are vacant among the top brass of the People's Army, and they have also obtained some information from various places.

That is, the positions of commanders, deputy commanders, political commissars and battalion commanders at all levels of the People's Army's more than 100 regiments have not yet been determined.

These people are all decided after discussions with the brigade commanders, chiefs of staff and others. After all, the positions are above the battalion commander of the People's Army.

There are almost a thousand. You must know that there are four battalions under each regiment, namely three infantry battalions and one artillery battalion. If you look at it this way.

There are four battalion commanders, plus the regimental commander, deputy regimental commander and political commissar, so there are seven high-level positions in a regiment.

In the entire People's Army, there are almost more than a hundred regiment commanders. When calculated, there are close to a thousand positions.

In the People's Army, a battalion commander is already considered a high-level person. It is no exaggeration to say that according to the current momentum of the People's Army.

The position of a battalion commander in the People's Army is at least equivalent to the deputy commander of other troops, in terms of combat effectiveness.

Su Yu felt that a battalion of his People's Army could defeat a regiment of the Eighth Route Army. This was no joke.

From the perspective of combat effectiveness, a battalion of the People's Army can indeed achieve this step. It is no joke for the People's Army to have an AK47.

Not to mention there are so many mg42 general-purpose machine guns. Which one the mg42 general-purpose machine gun is targeting will probably make the Eighth Route Army confused.

Soon, the news about the expansion of the People's Army from six brigades to six divisions spread throughout northwestern Shanxi. When the Eighth Route Army and Shanxi-Sui Army heard the whole news.

The expressions on their faces were not to mention how shocked they were. Even though they had been mentally prepared for it, they were still shocked when they heard the whole news.
