When the surrounding soldiers saw the military uniforms, shoes, helmets, and military coats in the truck, their eyes widened.
"These clothes are so beautiful, especially the style and fabric. Even the landlord in our village doesn't have such beautiful clothes.”
"I really want to keep it for my wedding. It's really too beautiful.”
A group of soldiers in tattered clothes held the clothes in their hands and muttered to each other. At the same time, tears welled up in their eyes.
Especially Li Changfeng's troops. They were all dressed in thin clothes and straw sandals. Many of them had their toes exposed and were shivering from the cold.
When she got the warm military coat, she couldn't help but cry.
Zhou Weiguo's eyes reddened as he watched the soldiers reluctantly take off their old clothes and put on their new ones.
"Sir, from today onwards, I will sell these 100 catties of meat to Sir Zhou.”Li Changfeng jogged over and put on his new military uniform. He looked much more energetic as he saluted.
"We are all fighting the Japanese. There is no such thing as working for anyone. If we are to talk about working for the country, it is for the people.”Zhou Weiguo said.
"Don't worry, sir. From now on, I, Li Changfeng, will follow your lead.”Li Changfeng stood at attention and said solemnly.
"Well, that's good." After hearing Li Changfeng's assurance, Zhou Weiguo nodded.
He didn't expect to win over these people's hearts with just this bit of equipment. After all, the human heart was complicated, and he didn't expect them to kowtow to him just because he was full of the aura of a king.
They didn't understand the other principles of the soldiers giving them guns, food, and clothes, as long as they had money.
After 20 minutes, the 1,000-strong army had all changed. Looking at the soldiers who had changed into their military uniforms, Zhou Weiguo's eyes instantly lit up. They were like two different people.
Now they were wearing the uniform of the German Wehrmacht. They wore German helmets, thick leather boots, and dark green military coats.
If it wasn't for his yellow skin, he would definitely be a replica of the German Wehrmacht.
"It's said that clothes make the man, and gold makes the Buddha. After changing clothes, you're indeed much more energetic.”Zhou Weiguo glanced around and cleared his throat.
"Now, I give the order!" Zhou Weiguo paused for a moment and coughed.
"Swoosh!"
All the soldiers immediately stood up straight when they heard this. They looked at Zhou Weiguo in unison and waited for orders.
"In view of the fact that your original troops have been wiped out or have lost their continuity, and in view of the current chaotic organization, which is not conducive to commanding the battle, I announce that all the troops will be scattered and reorganized. All the personnel will be reorganized into a regiment, and I will personally be the commander.”
Originally, the 522nd Regiment had about a hundred soldiers, plus the 88th Division's 100 soldiers and the first batch of 30 soldiers.
In total, there were more than 300 people. The 300 Sichuan soldiers that were incorporated and the 1,130 scattered soldiers that Fang Shengli had intercepted and incorporated were still increasing.
The total number of soldiers attacking was more than 1,800, but the various troops were mixed up. Only by reorganizing them could they display their greatest combat effectiveness.
"The 522nd Regiment has five infantry battalions and one artillery battalion. Fang Shengli will be the deputy regiment commander and the commander of the first battalion. Li Changfeng will be the commander of the second battalion. Dai Tao (the former captain of the 88th Division) will be the commander of the third battalion. Wang Wenshi will be the commander of the fourth battalion. Xu Tian (the former commander of the second battalion) will be the commander of the fifth battalion. I will be the commander of the artillery battalion. Xu Hu will be the commander of the guard company. We will form a reserve battalion. Liu Yuan (the former commander of the third battalion) will be the commander of the other companies. The other commanders will report to their respective commanders and I will approve it.”
"I've said so much for the time being. Does anyone have any objections?”Zhou Weiguo looked around and asked.
The surroundings were silent. Everyone's expressions were very calm. Then, a voice sounded,"As ordered, sir!"
Zhou Weiguo's reorganization had taken into account all aspects. He knew that he could not eliminate the conflicts between the various factions for the time being. He could only forcefully mix them together and slowly mediate the various conflicts in the later stages.
Fang Shengli was very smart when he recruited people. He did not want those with high military ranks. They were basically company platoon leaders. All the officers were promoted by one rank in this reorganization. The company commander became the deputy battalion commander, the platoon leader became the company commander, and the squad leader became the platoon leader.
Everyone felt that it was fair. In addition, everyone received new weapons and military uniforms, so they were naturally very happy.
After reorganizing the army, the various troops began to enter the camp.
"Regiment Commander, the Japanese planes are here to investigate.”The messenger outside ran into the command center and said.
"It must be a fire reconnaissance. Inform the people not to walk around casually. Do not light fires to cook food.”Zhou Weiguo frowned and said.
"Yes."
At this moment, Xu Hu walked in from outside.
"Regiment Commander, the Japanese are attacking again.”
"Have the artillery battalion stand by. If the Japanese artillery dares to expose their coordinates, immediately launch a destructive attack. We must not let the Japanese artillery cause huge casualties to the soldiers.”Zhou Weiguo said to the staff officer.
One of the staff officers immediately received the order and brought the messenger to the artillery camp to convey Zhou Weiguo's order.
After a night, the flames of war were ignited once again. This time, the Japanese's offensive was even fiercer. Seven out of ten positions on the outskirts of Nanjing City had been broken through. The Japanese had begun to surround Nanjing City.
