Fang Yu held his forehead and couldn't help but sigh softly.
Stay calm...
"commander!"
"This is a telegram from headquarters..."
"Hey hey hey..."
"Commander, you have become the brigade commander!"
"The deputy commander-in-chief personally issued an order to appoint you as the commander of the new brigade, allowing you to form a new brigade on your own..."
As Wu Anguo spoke, he quickly delivered the telegram, and the smile on his face was beyond words.
My mood gradually became brighter.
It feels completely different.
"New First Brigade... Brigadier?"
Fang Yu was stunned for a moment and felt a little surprised.
Is there still such an operation?
Fang Yu opened the telegram and took a look. It was indeed the tone of the deputy commander-in-chief.
It probably means that this time Fang Yu killed two mixed brigades of the Japanese, and also annihilated a Category A division such as the Seventh Japanese Division. He has made outstanding achievements and is hereby commended...
Ordered Fang Yu to form a new brigade on his own, with Fang Yu appointed as the brigade commander...
All affairs of the New First Brigade will be fully decided by Fang Yu himself, and the headquarters will not interfere.
The New First Brigade is now directly responsible to the headquarters.
In other words, Fang Yu can decide on his own for positions such as deputy brigade commander, chief of staff, etc.
"Commander, from now on, should we call you brigade commander or commander."
"Hey hey hey..."
"I think I'd better call you Commander, I'm used to it."
The monk couldn't help but scratch his head and said.
"okay!"
"Whether we are the brigade commander or the commander, our goal has never changed from the beginning to the end."
"To put it bluntly, the most important thing for us now is to expand our troops and armed forces, and then do our best to fight the Japanese..."
"Recovering Taiyuan as soon as possible is our top priority right now!"
Fang Yu waved his hand and set the tone.
But getting promoted... is something worth celebrating.
This is recognition from the headquarters!
"Now the establishment has been raised, and the troop expansion... is about to be carried out..."
"It's just that we currently lack too many leading generals."
Fang Yu held his forehead and couldn't help but sigh.
Difficult to do.
"By the way, Commander, the headquarters also said something..."
"Headquarters said that... the leader of the new second regiment, Cheng Guo, would be transferred to our new first brigade... and they also said that this was the request made by the leader of the new second regiment, Cheng Guo, on his own initiative."
"The headquarters said that the new first brigade has just started to be formed and there must be a shortage of men. The headquarters means that more than a thousand soldiers of the entire new second regiment will be assigned to our new first brigade, including the new second regiment.
The leader of the regiment, Cheng Guo..."
Wu Anguo, Director of the Logistics Department, continued.
Fang Yu: "???"
If Fang Yu was surprised enough by the headquarters' promotion of him to the rank of commander of the new first brigade, then the current incident made him feel even more nonsensical.
This operation...
He sincerely wanted Li Yunlong or Brother Yunfei to join his team...
Unexpectedly, the flowers planted intentionally will not bloom, but the willows planted unintentionally will form shade...
In Fang Yu's impression, there wasn't much communication between him and the leader Cheng Xiazi.
At most, they only met a few times.
This matter is a bit confusing.
It would make sense if the head of the headquarters took the initiative to order Cheng Xiazi's new second regiment to join his new first brigade.
But now... I am stunned.
Cheng Xiazi, the leader of the new second regiment, took the initiative to ask Ying to join his team?
It’s a bit interesting.
"Commander, don't you want Commander Cheng to join our team?"
"Then I went to reject the headquarters?"
Seeing that Fang Yu remained silent, Wu Anguo couldn't help but say.
"Refuse?"
"Why refuse?"
"The headquarters sent me a general and more than a thousand elite soldiers. It's not too late for me to be happy!"
"How can you refuse such a pie-in-the-sky thing?"
"We don't have much contact with Commander Cheng. On weekdays, we have more contact with Commander Li, Commander Kong Jie and Commander Ding Wei."
"But not having many contacts doesn't mean that Commander Cheng is incapable."
"There is a huge difference between the two."
"In other words, it's not the same thing at all."
"The new second regiment led by Captain Cheng is the former 772nd regiment. It is the main regiment of our army..."
"Captain Cheng is able to lead the main force, so one can imagine his combat command capabilities."
"A great general!"
"And...the more than a thousand soldiers of the New Second Regiment under Captain Cheng are basically veterans! Veterans who have experienced hundreds of battles!"
"If it can be arranged into our troops, it can quickly improve the combat effectiveness of our troops."
"These veterans of many battles are perfect as grassroots officers."
Fang Yu grinned.
While talking at this moment, I couldn't help but nod silently, and my mood gradually improved a lot.
Compared with the title of Commander of the New First Brigade, Fang Yu cared more about the benefits of Cheng Xiazi and his more than a thousand soldiers.
"When you feel sleepy, bring me a pillow."
“The head of the headquarters is really considerate!”
"It just so happens that I don't have a commanding general under my command!"
"Anguo, please reply to the headquarters for me and say thank you to the deputy commander-in-chief and division commander!"
"Also, tell the headquarters that a large number of weapons will be sent to the headquarters recently..."
Fang Yu immediately made arrangements.
The weapons and equipment obtained at the Longcheng Arsenal this time can be equipped for three or four divisions.
Fang Yu intercepted heavy weapons, artillery and tanks.
But things like the 38 cap, cantaloupe grenade, crooked light machine gun, Type 92 heavy machine gun, etc. are packaged directly and sent to the headquarters.
These past few days I have mainly been cleaning up the messy guns and ammunition in the warehouse.
There are too many things, and cleaning them up is obviously a big project, and it will be difficult to finish them in a short time.
"With the addition of more than 1,000 veterans of hundreds of battles in the New Second Regiment, as well as the joining of Commander Cheng Guo, this is of great significance to the comprehensive construction of the New First Brigade."
"In this way, the expansion of the new brigade may be completed earlier, and combat effectiveness can be formed faster."
"It's just around the corner to regain Taiyuan and destroy the entire Jin Province."
Fang Yu clenched his fists, and his eyes were filled with light!
My mood gradually became much more exciting.
The smile on his lips remains the same.
…
386 Brigade.
Brigade Headquarters.
At this moment, several group leaders came.
"Old Ding!"
"Lao Kong!"
"Blind Cheng?"
"Damn it!"
"You are all here?"
"What kind of medicine is buried in this gourd, Brigadier?"
"Why did you get us all here?"
"Is it possible that the brigade commander wants to invite us to drink together?"
"Isn't it because the brigade commander is jealous that our old Li wants to form a second artillery battalion, so he is greedy and wants to take advantage of our old Li?"
As soon as Li Yunlong arrived, he couldn't help but start howling.
This time the brigade commander suddenly summoned all the brigade commanders, which was indeed a bit strange.
