Rebirth of the National Marshal

At this point, Mao Yuanshan finally understood that he was being used as a gun by the principal. She wanted to establish her power in North China, but she didn't have a good opportunity or a good excuse. I was wondering why she would strongly support me. It turned out that was her idea.

"Director Mao, the principal has been very good to you. The salary of your security group is paid according to the regular organization of the Central Army, which is two dollars a month. I know you don't need this money, but after all, this is the principal's intention, isn't it?" Principal Jiang always gives a sweet reward after a slap in the face.

Are you trying to fool me? Do you think I've never seen money? This ragtag army only gets two dollars in salary, and the central army gets five dollars at least. After bargaining, it was finally settled on four dollars a month. However, the central government did not pay in dollars, but in legal tender. Thinking that the purchasing power of legal tender was still very good at this time, Mao Yuanshan nodded. In addition, the central government also approved 50 legal tenders to form another security group. This amount of money should be enough according to the standards of the ragtag army.

For the usually stingy central government, this money was already a favor, and Mao Yuanshan no longer cared about it. However, such a large establishment was not enough just with the support of the central government.

Each regiment has four such infantry battalions, plus a special forces company, cavalry company, artillery company, baggage company, heavy fire support company and even an armored company.

"I say, Old Hu, are you here to cheat me or to help me? With your organization, not even the Germans can support it. A regiment like this cannot be supported without 1000 million dollars." Mao Yuanshan looked depressed on the surface, but he was very happy in his heart. The army he wanted to build must be such a army.

"Haha, don't worry. To be honest, I have some suggestions for you. Just like the Czech light machine gun you are using, don't you know that Germany has produced a universal G34 machine gun? The firing rate is to rounds per minute. That machine gun can definitely replace all your current Czech light machine guns and Maxim heavy machine guns." Hu Lian said with a smile.

"How could you not know such a good machine gun? But the problem is that the German Wehrmacht has not equipped it yet. It is in a highly confidential state and has only been circulated." Mao Yuanshan rolled his eyes at this guy in anger. Didn't he know about the famous machine gun in World War II? The problem is that the exchange system has not been developed yet. If you buy it in reality, the price is still an astronomical figure. Forget it.

"Everyone knows that you are unconventional. Things that others can't get are nothing to you, Director Mao. Just like this canned food, it is not widely available in the U.S. Army, but we see so many of them here." As a colonel, Hu Lian probably eats the same food as what is served here.

"This can is a civilian supply, and this machine gun is a military item. Their brains are not burned out yet." Mao Yuanshan said helplessly. In fact, the exchange system is basically the same as the reality. There are many civilian supplies that can be exchanged, but military items need to be unlocked one by one.

Naturally, Monkey was appointed as the company commander of the special forces company. In addition, there were also thousands of people in the detective team of the police station. All of them were equipped with a Mauser pistol, and they also needed sidecar tricycles and bicycles.

These things cannot be exchanged in the system, and all need to be purchased from the merchant bank, which costs another 10 yuan.

In the past, all the merchants in Beijing were reluctant to do business with the police station, mainly because the police station would just give you an IOU after taking the goods, and when to settle the bill depended on their mood. But now it is different. The payment and goods are settled, and no credit is accepted.

The two of them discussed and chatted all day until the evening, and finally came up with the entire framework.

It turned out that Sun Desheng's artillery company was upgraded to an artillery battalion.

The independent battalion also completed its 5000-man strength to reach people.

Each of the 101st and 102nd Regiments has reached a certain size, plus some civilian personnel, patrol teams, and plainclothes teams within the police station, the total number of personnel is nearly .

"Director Mao, no, I should call you Commander Mao now. With 4 troops under your command, you can divide the land and establish your own regime." Hu Lian said with a smile. This plan has been simulated many times in the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs. Of course, the staff of the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs absolutely do not believe that Mao Yuanshan has the ability to form an army of 4. First of all, money is a very important issue.

In today's society, maintaining an army saves a lot of money compared to later generations. It may not even cost 1/10, but even this 1/10 is definitely not a small amount.

After seeing Hu Lian off, Mao Yuanshan and several other high-level officials including Wang Bing did some research. Everything from the venue to the equipment needed to be purchased. According to current social prices, it would take nearly 300 million taels of silver to support this stall. If everything was done according to Hu Lian's plan, it would cost at least 1500 million taels of silver.

Arms, equipment and food can be exchanged in the system, which saves more than 1000 million dollars. However, the wages for the soldiers and some other things cannot be exchanged. They have to be exchanged for real dollars, which costs 400 million dollars. The money is nothing. We raided the Japanese lair a few days ago. Together with the money from selling equipment, this amount is enough.

Uncle Mao, the old housekeeper in Mao Yuanshan's family, knows all about purchasing things. It is impossible to spend more money from her. Uncle Mao has made a name for himself now. He used to look after Mao Yuanshan's house, but now he is considered the housekeeper in the entire army.

Just like last time, all the newly produced clone soldiers were arranged to be squad leaders, and some of them were transferred from the veteran units. As long as all the people at the squad leader level could be gathered, everything would be fine.

However, I have no more platoon leaders, battalion commanders, and various staff officers. I sent a telegram to the central government, saying that since you asked me to form an army, you can't just give me 50 French francs. You must have plenty of these grassroots officers.

The central government and the Ministry of Military Affairs were naturally worried about this new army. Since they had this idea, officers from there also came over. There were more than 100 young officers, all of whom were top students of the Whampoa Military Academy. If it were not for the relationship with President Chiang, no local army would have received so many officers.

Each of these disciples of the emperor and the leaders of the party and the country were very proud, but when they learned of Xie Tianhua's identity, they all showed awe. Most of those who could enter the Whampoa Military Academy wanted to save the country and the people. Most of their instructors in the school were German officers, but the one in front of them was able to be admitted to the Munich Military Academy among the German officers. His knowledge alone was much better than their instructors.

Mao Yuanshan was not afraid that these people had two masters. As long as he gave them enough money and he was fighting the Japanese, over time they would know who to follow. People of this era were not stupid. Good birds choose the right trees to roost in. As long as he could do well, he would not worry about them not following him.

Soldiers are paid ten dollars a month. Those who have served for one year can get 11 dollars, those who have served for two years can get 12 dollars, and those who have served for three years can get 13 dollars. After that, as long as you are a senior soldier, you will get 13 dollars.

The sniper and deputy squad leader each received 15 dollars, the squad leader received 20 dollars, the deputy platoon leader received 25 dollars, the platoon leader received 30 dollars, the deputy company commander received 35 dollars, and the company commander received 50 dollars.

The deputy battalion commander gets 100 taels of silver, the battalion commander gets 200 taels of silver, the deputy regiment commander gets 400 taels of silver, and the regiment commander gets 500 taels of silver.

All artillerymen will be promoted one level according to this standard, and ordinary artillerymen will receive 15 oceans per month.

There is a military and cultural assessment every month. Those who pass the assessment will receive five more dollars, and those who fail will naturally not get the money.

Such treatment of officers is naturally unique in the entire party-state. Originally, these chosen ones thought that they could not be paid here, but they were dumbfounded when they saw the salary standard. A platoon leader in the most elite troops of the Central Army only gets ten yuan, but here it is 30 yuan. Even the lowest-ranking officer has to be paid a platoon leader. Of course, you also have to pass Xie Tianhua's test. If you fail, you can buy a train ticket south to go back.

These officers and cadets are not stupid. They certainly understand the situation here. Although this is just a security regiment at the moment, looking at the equipment in this regiment, even a reorganized division of the National Army does not have so much passion.

What a joke a regiment is. A reorganized division of the National Army has only more than 1 people, and some of the miscellaneous troops have only six or seven thousand people.

It sounds like he is just a platoon leader, but a platoon plus the platoon headquarters is equal to five squads with hundreds of people. Some miscellaneous units only have these people in a company commander. Look at the weapons those miscellaneous units use, the Hanyang-made weapons with the rifling polished, and each soldier has only three to five bullets. These one hundred soldiers have all kinds of bullets for light and heavy machine guns. The officers who came down dared to assert that if they were given a platoon like this, they could definitely attack a squadron of Japanese devils.

The remaining issue is recruiting soldiers. It costs five dollars a month to put up a sign, and this is of course for the three-month training period for new recruits. After they are converted to regular soldiers, it will be ten dollars. The people queuing at the main entrance line all the way to the Daqian Gate. Since there are so many people who want to join the army, we will adhere to the principle of "better to have fewer than too few". We must have strict requirements in the selection. People with any bad records in the past are absolutely not allowed to join. We also don't want old soldiers who have been hanging around in various troops. We only want young and strong guys.

According to past conscription experience, in addition to the people already there, more than 3 people would need to be recruited, almost people. This would take at least two months. However, under the temptation of ten dollars, all the recruitment was completed in less than a week, and the barracks over there haven't even been built yet.

Only now can I truly be considered the security commander.

The 29th Army also learned the news. Although the 29th Army was very disgusted with this, a newly transported division of Japanese devils had already disembarked, which made the 29th Army feel more pressured. There were nearly 6 Japanese devils in three divisions, and it would be quite difficult for the 29th Army to rely on the 10 troops. It was already good enough to defend the current position.

Although he wanted to intervene in the security group of a certain mountain, the problem was that they would not give him a chance. There were orders from the government's military and political departments, as well as a corps of hundreds of officers. It was impossible for him to intervene.

Half a month later, when Hu Lian brought the intelligence back to the central government, the security corps had already taken shape and the troops had begun training on the newly built playground, with shouts deafening and gunfire ringing like forests.

Every morning, thousands of soldiers would line up in neat rows and run around the entire city, especially around the Japanese Concession.
