After Chen Jitang left the wilderness, his First Army was disbanded.
Song Yibei's independent army quickly took over the defense of the entire Guangdong.
As soon as they took over Guangdong, the Independent Army issued another conscription order.
This time, Song Yibei planned to expand it into a group army.
At this moment, Song Yibei was no longer unknown. Many forces were starting to pay attention to him.
In order not to agitate Old Jiang, Song Yibei didn't say how much he wanted to recruit.
At the same time, Song Yibei called Song Ziwen again. One was asking for money, and the other was asking for cash.
There were so many houses built in Hainan. How could they sell them without printing paper money?
At the same time, he also wanted an identity and Fujian.
It was easy to get an identity, but it was not so easy to get Fujian.
Although Fujian was not as eye-catching as other provinces, it was still a province. How could Old Jiang give it away so easily, let alone the Song family?
Sure enough, after Song Ziwen made this request, Old Jiang rejected it without thinking.
He could give her his identity, but if she wanted Fujian, there was no way!
Song Yibei was very disappointed after hearing that.
If they had Fujian, the independent army would be able to participate in the Battle of Shanghai.
But it seemed impossible!
Since Old Jiang didn't want to give it to him, Song Yibei had no choice.
He didn't want to start a civil war right now, especially with his uncle.
After taking control of the Guangdong faction, Song Yibei's independent army headquarters moved to Guangzhou.
His family was also with him.
Although Hainan was developing rapidly, it was still too limited. Besides, Song Yibei didn't want more people to pay attention to Hainan.
There were steel factories, military factories, and shipyards under construction in Hainan. If the Japanese found out, all their efforts would be in vain!
This was also the reason why the headquarters of the Independent Army was moved to Guangzhou.
The conscription order had been issued.
Previously, the Independent Army had captured many of Chen Jitang's soldiers. These were the best soldiers.
After eliminating the old, weak, and sick, there were only 30,000 young soldiers left.
These 30,000 people were just enough to form two divisions.
Previously, the independent army had 12,500 soldiers. After the new army was established, it would have 15,000 soldiers.
This time, Song Yibei planned to establish five divisions.
Four infantry corps, one mechanized corps, three heavy artillery brigades, air force, engineering corps, and logistics corps. The entire army had a total of 300,000 people.
If Old Jiang knew that Song Yibei was making such a big move, he would probably vomit blood from anger.
When Song Ziwen heard this, she was also shocked.
What did Song Yibei want to do?
Could it be that he used the name of resisting Japan to rebel against his uncle?
If Old Jiang found out about this, it would not be a joke. It might even lead to a war.
She originally planned to persuade Song Yibei, but in the end, she was still convinced by him.
Song Yibei's explanation was very simple. If they didn't expand the army now, it would be too late to think about expanding it when the Japanese attacked.
Alright then.
This reason was very powerful. At the same time, Song Ziwen took out another 10 million yuan.
His heart ached too!
If Song Yibei expanded his organization twice, he wouldn't be far from bankruptcy.
However, when he thought of contributing to the war, he felt better.
The Independent Army was expanding vigorously, and Song Yibei was drooling as he looked at the points in the system.
300,000 points.
He had actually gotten 300,000 points by chasing away Chen Jitang!
It was simply too satisfying.
With these 300,000 points, Song Yibei could exchange for many machines, including engineers.
Just as Song Yibei was considering when to exchange for it, the system's notification sounded again.
"Ding dong! [Congratulations to the host for taking down a complete province. The system has rewarded a large power plant with 200,000 M1 Garand rifles, each with 10 base ammunition.] 5000 machine guns, each with 10 base ammo; 300 M1- 75mm Howitzers, 100 105 Howitzers, 50 155 Howitzers, each with 10 base ammunition. 3000 trucks, 200 Panther tanks, 200 armored vehicles, 200 planes…"
Seeing the system give him so much equipment, Song Yibei felt so good.
With these weapons, he could easily arm 300,000 troops.
Moreover, the arsenal was producing weapons every day.
It could be said that Song Yibei didn't lack weapons and equipment at the moment.
Kong Lingyi and Yan Renmei were also accompanying Song Yi to Guangdong.
Sheng Aiyi was happy to see Yan Renmei.
Yan Renmei had a good relationship with the Sheng family. When she divorced her ex-husband, it was the Sheng and Song sisters who supported her.
When Yan Renmei had proposed a divorce, both her in-laws and her parents had disagreed.
Without strong support, the divorce would not be possible.
When Song Yibei moved the military headquarters to Guangzhou, Yan Renmei planned to return to Shanghai. However, Sheng Aiyi asked her to stay, so she came to Guangzhou with him. It was obvious how much Sheng Aiyi liked Yan Renmei.
If Yan Renmei did not have three children, Sheng Aiyi would have really wanted to matchmake her with her son…
After arriving in Guangzhou, Song Yibei didn't have time to accompany Kong Lingyi and Yan Renmei.
The expansion of the army, the livelihood of the people, and a lot of other things were waiting for him to do.
It had to be said that Guangdong was indeed doing well under Chen Jitang's governance, especially in terms of education.
Song Yibei also attached great importance to education. He had just entered Guangdong when he announced the policy of all schools being free of charge.
Not only was it free, but it also provided breakfast and lunch, and they were all free.
At the same time, within a year, he had to build another 1000 primary schools, 500 middle schools, 200 high schools, and 500 technical schools.
After this order was issued, the people of Guangdong were in an uproar.
Not only could the children go to school for free, but there was also free breakfast and lunch?
In the Republic of China, many families did not have a proper meal.
This time, as long as the child was sent to school, it was equivalent to reducing one person's rations.
Families with many children suddenly felt that the burden on their shoulders was lighter.
Moreover, the families that did not allow girls to go to school before were now sending them to school.
The media reporters soon learned of this policy and began reporting it.
This was definitely a good thing for the country and the people.
Even the warlords shook their heads when they heard the news.
They also wanted to do so, but the money in their pockets did not allow it!
At the same time, they envied Song Yibei and Song Yi for being part of the Song family.
Sometimes, a person's birth was really important.
This time, Song Yibei could be considered to have complete control over Guangdong.
If anyone wanted to drive him away, they would first ask the 30 million people in Guangdong if they agreed.
……
……
At the CEO's residence.
Old Jiang looked at the newspaper with a livid face.
Song Yibei was roasting him on fire!
Old Jiang was the president of the Republic of China. He didn't even issue such a policy, but you, a warlord, beat him to it?
What would others think of him?
There were already many people discussing that he should just let the Song family be the CEO.
Anyway, they were all in the same party. It didn't matter who became the president.
Of course, Old Jiang was furious.
What did he mean by it doesn't matter who becomes the CEO?
Of course, Old Jiang wanted to be as willful as Song Yi, but he couldn't afford to be willful!
The Song family was rich, and Guangdong was only a province. If he wanted to implement this policy, it would not be a problem for a province!
The cost here was definitely an astronomical figure.
With this money, he could form an army.
In Old Jiang's view, political power came from the barrel of a gun.
As long as he controlled the army, no one else could shake his position.
This was also the reason why Old Jiang was able to rise again every time he left the jungler.
