"For the time being, it's not good to promote anyone first.
You can hold the position of commander of the first division for the time being.
When the next two divisions gradually recruit people, we will make appointments.
You two will have to endure it for a while.
Time."
Jiang Li looked at Feng Zhanhai and said.
The strength of the 15th Route Army seems to be quite large, but in fact it is not very conspicuous when spread over such a vast land in the northwest.
The war with Japan will not stop at all, not to mention that the resources in the northwest will not be able to grow to the level of fighting with the Japanese army in a few years, so it is necessary to expand the territory outwards and incorporate resources from other places into Route 15 Under the wings of the army.
At this time, with the transportation still imperfect, it was not possible to radiate to too far away for a while, but military expansion was inevitable.
"I heard that the second batch of heavy artillery assembled in the arsenal has been rolled off the production line.
Our 15th Route Army does not yet have a heavy artillery establishment.
The 3rd Division is also the first division-level unit of the 15th Route Army.
How about filling a battalion of heavy artillery with the divisional artillery regiment?
"Feng Zhanhai nodded, and then put his idea into the heavy artillery in the arsenal.
The Northeast Army used to have heavy artillery, but they were Zhang Xueliang's pet peeves and were not visible at ordinary times.
Compared with before, Feng Zhanhai could only be regarded as a peripheral member of the Northeast Army, but now he was a core figure of the 15th Route Army.
This status was different, and naturally he had more requirements.
"It is not appropriate to incorporate heavy artillery into the division.
The artillery regiment of the division should use 75 mountain guns and field artillery.
Cannons and nuclear bombs form three independent heavy artillery regiments.
They are all semi-finished products and can be produced quickly.
Light howitzers.
This will be the 15th line in the future.
The army’s mainstream large-caliber artillery.”
Jiang Li said with a smile.
The role and power of heavy artillery are equally great, but the production of heavy artillery takes up considerable resources.
Even Japan cannot do both.
Relatively speaking, Jiang Li is more willing to invest more of his future energy in the fight for air superiority. superior.
"The number of artillery in stock is insufficient.
Only by dismantling the original artillery brigade can we fill up the establishment of three division artillery regiments.
By the end of this year, the arsenal will be able to successfully produce 75 mountain guns, field guns and artillery of lower calibers," Feng Zhanhai said Jiang Li already had an idea and stopped insisting.
Instead, he was very concerned about the situation in the arsenal.
"The output at the steel plant is still too low.
In two or three months, the gun steel purchased from abroad will almost arrive.
After the steel plant solves the problem next year, the production capacity at the arsenal will be increased.
It's easy."
This account has been calculated several times.
Although the purchase of tens of thousands of tons of steel for guns makes Jiang Li nervous, it will take a year to gradually get the military and heavy industries back on track.
It is also very fast.
"I heard that the scale of the iron ore in Tianshui is pretty good.
So much money has been invested.
With tens of thousands of people, why can't we increase production quickly?"
Feng Zhanhai said.
"In the final analysis, it's still a question of roads.
If you can't rush this kind of thing, it's like giving you enough ordnance.

You can't immediately turn a group of new recruits into a group of powerful troops."
Jiang Li waved his hand.
We still need to find new iron mines.
Otherwise, it would be good to rely solely on the iron mines in Tianshui and Tianshui to produce more than 200,000 tons of steel.
It would be unrealistic for the technical conditions to increase further.
"Jingle bell" Jiang Li picked up the phone and it was from the Adjutant's Office.
"Commander, Chairman Yang of Shaanxi Province called and asked to speak to the commander."
Xu Zicheng's voice rang from the adjutant's office.
"Transfer Chairman Yang's call."
Jiang Li ordered, and soon Yang Hucheng's voice rang on the phone.
"Brother Jiang, have you heard about Tianshui?"
"I heard that Ma Qingyuan sent me a post when I went to Tianshui before, but I didn't dump him at that time.
Unexpectedly, I betrayed Brother Yang.
This was originally a family matter of the 17th Route Army, and it was not convenient for me to interfere.
However, Ma Qingyuan doesn't seem to be able to deal with Brother Yang's trusted troops.
The battle is still going on in Tianshui.
If Brother Yang doesn't take action, I will kill this rebel in order to avoid causing panic among the people. " Jiang Li said in a calm voice.
Jiang Li had naturally heard about such a big thing in Tianshui.
Ma Qingyuan was also afraid of Zhao Yi's mixed brigade and did not dare to cause too much trouble.
The situation was still under control, but Jiang Li instructed Gao Zhihang to deploy two squadrons of bombers to Tianshui Airport.
Be ready to put an end to this chaos at any time.
"My subordinates are unruly and make me laugh, but I have to do my own thing.
I plan to lead a brigade to the west immediately.
In addition, I will transfer Sun Weiru to Tianshui to destroy Ma Qingyuan, so I won't bother me.
After Ma Qingyuan is solved, I will return to Shaanxi with Sun Weiru, and I will be very grateful for the convenience provided by me on the way," Yang Hucheng said on the phone.
"Don't worry, brother.
As long as I can help, I won't refuse.
If you need anything, just ask me.
I don't like seeing a rebellious person like Ma Qingyuan.
The ammunition Commander Sun needs, I am responsible for providing support for food supplies.
In addition, I happen to have some planes at Tianshui Airport.
If I need it, I will ask Commander Sun to call Tianshui at that time.
"Hello instant noodles."
When Jiang Li heard Yang Hucheng's plan to withdraw the Shaanxi army from Gansu, a smile appeared on his face.
Since Yang Hucheng was interesting enough, he would not be stingy.
After all, the two are still in the stage of cooperation.
Historically, Zhang and Yang jointly launched the Xi'an Incident, and later pointed out that he oppressed Chairman Chiang to unite to resist Japan, but they couldn't make their relationship worse.
"We'll talk about this later.
It would be nice to have the ammunition supply provided by my brother."
Yang Hucheng smiled heartily over there, and it seemed that Ma Qingyuan did not affect his mood at all.
"It seems that Chairman Yang is also a very tough person."
Jiang Li sighed after hanging up the phone.
No wonder he was able to do such a big thing as the Xi'an Incident.
His level of determination is not comparable to that of ordinary people.
"Yang Hucheng has agreed to withdraw troops from Lanzhou," Feng Zhanhai said with joy after hearing this.

"Well, if we don't evacuate, we won't be able to live well.
Yang Hucheng is just borrowing money from us, but we will have a long time to cooperate in the future, so we can't offend this neighbor."
Jiang Li nodded and said.
"That's right.
Once Sun Weiru withdraws, Gansu, Ningxia, and Qinghai will be completely dominated by our 15th Route Army."
Feng Zhanhai said with joy, "Although the northwest is poor, the 15th Route Army has already surpassed the Northeast.
Military atmosphere."
"We should not take it lightly.
Speaking of Chairman Chiang's methods in Nanjing, it is really hard to guard against.
Who can guarantee that there will not be a second Ma Qingyuan in our team?"
Chairman Chiang in history is by no means as incompetent as the history books say.
Shaanxi is thousands of miles away from Nanjing, and Chairman Chiang Kai-shek can cause a fire in the backyard of the 17th Route Army.
Jiang Li had a feeling that Chairman Chiang's actions were much more than that.
This method of dividing and attacking was truly superb.
"Yang Hucheng's men are also a bit motley, and they are indeed a bit biased towards Ma Qingyuan's troops.
However, our 17th Route Army all fought in the same trench.
If anyone dares to betray the commander, I will personally lead the troops to skin him.
Feng Zhanhai said with a raised brow.
"You can't say that.
Wasn't Jiang Xingcheng who we sent to Songhu also been poached by Nanjing?"
Jiang Li smiled coldly.
Chairman Jiang's methods are clever, but at this juncture he still wants to spend his power on internal consumption.
Instead of making more preparations for war, Chairman Chiang will taste the bitter consequences after the Japanese army invades China in a few years
