Although the two men answered very straightforwardly, it would still be very difficult to really get them to act according to Meng Shaoyuan's ideas.
Meng Shaoyuan was not in a hurry: "You all know the current situation of the security forces. In order to facilitate future operations, I have decided to make some changes to the security forces." Change?
What kind of change? This involves drinking a lot of people. Tomisaka Teru and Koshikawa Kanaka were immediately impressed.
"Drink tea, you two." Meng Shaoyuan was not in a hurry and took a sip of tea before saying: "The entire security force is divided into four combat squadrons and two mobile squadrons. This will cause great disadvantages in terms of command. Therefore, I decided to organize the four combat squadrons into two infantry combat brigades, and appointed two battalion captains to be directly responsible to me." Tomisaka Teru and Koshikawa Kanaka were startled.
Reorganize? This is tantamount to centralizing power. You know, Shimata and Hiiro had thought about this before, but they were strongly opposed by Nakahama Matsutomi, who was worried about being decentralized.
Now, Shimata, Hiiro and Nakahama Matsutomi are all dead.
"Shibu Taniguchi" proposed this plan again. It's doable. The problem is the selection of these two captains, no matter who is chosen, there will be problems.
"The 2nd and 4th Combat Squadrons will be organized into the 2nd Infantry Combat Group. My opinion on the candidate for the captain is Mr. Tomisaka." When Meng Shaoyuan put forward his idea, a trace of excitement flashed from Teru Tomisaka's face. Pass.
This is a direct promotion for myself. Although Manila would soon be directly attacked, improvement in status was always everyone's immediate concern.
The same goes for Teru Tomisaka. He never imagined that when the new commander came, he would think so highly of himself.
This is also the result that Meng Shaoyuan had expected. Tomisaka Teru is a neutral member of the security forces, while Koshikawa Kanaka is a member of Nakahama Matsutomi.
The two men belong to different factions. When people from different factions, or even people from the same faction, sit together in a meeting, they must all hope that they can get the attention of their new boss.
Meng Shaoyuan made good use of this mentality, and in the shortest possible time, Teru Tomisaka felt that he valued him, and also made him feel close to him.
But for Koshigawa Hezhong, it caused subtle changes in his psychology quickly. He was originally a wealthy man in Nakahama, but he was never appreciated by his superiors.
After Nakahama Matsutomi died due to a mutiny, his position with the Fourth Squadron became even more delicate.
Although there is no further settlement of accounts, the attitude of the new commander has made it clear.
Koshigawa Kachu also made a decision. No matter what happened, he and the Fourth Squadron would remain neutral.
Never get involved in anything.
"At the same time, I will form the first and third squadrons into the first infantry combat brigade." Meng Shaoyuan ignored Koshikawa Hezhong and continued to say: "I have already preliminary candidates for the brigade captain." He also He did not name the candidate in his mind, but continued: "There are still two infantry squadrons under my jurisdiction. As for the candidate for the captain, I have thought about it for a long time and can discuss it with you." At this point, he paused. Then he said: "Koshikawa-kun, are you confident that you can serve as the captain well?"
"What?" Koshikawa Hezhong, who was originally absent-minded, was stunned when he heard this. Own?
, serve as captain? He didn't even think about it.
"Jun Yuechuan, don't be nervous." Meng Shaoyuan said with a smile: "I have thought carefully about it. I invited you here today because I wanted to be frank and heart-to-heart. I must be honest and say that your squadron has been excluded before. After Mitsutomi Nakahama's rebellion, the status of the 4th Combat Squadron became even more delicate. After Mr. Shimado obtained a batch of arms, the 4th Infantry Squadron was not even sent a bullet. Even I feel that this is not the case. It's an unfair thing." He spoke completely from the perspective of the 4th Combat Squadron: "If you continue to command the 4th Infantry Squadron, I'm worried that you will still be squeezed out. Therefore, I decided to establish the new It’s up to you to be the captain of the mobile brigade.” Koshigawa Kachu didn’t know what to say at all.
He was already disheartened, but he never thought that such an unexpected surprise would fall from the sky.
I have always misunderstood Mr. Taniguchi before.
"Of course, I need your attitude." Meng Shaoyuan said slowly: "Now, please answer me clearly, can you take up this position well?" Koshigawa Hezhong knew that this was his best chance: "Your Excellency Taniguchi , if you entrust me with such an important task, I will be loyal to you to the death!" I will be loyal to you to the death!
After the death of Nakahama Matsutomi, Koshikawa Kachinaka's backstage collapsed, and now a new and more powerful backstage has appeared!
In fact, both Teru Tomisaka and Kanaka Koshigawa knew very well that it was not Shibu Taniguchi who valued them particularly.
It's that the new commander has just taken office and urgently needs to form a new team that will fully obey his orders.
In the past, Shimado and Hiiro had been operating here for so long, and they were basically his people. Tomisaka Teru and Koshikawa Kanaka are not used.
One of them is the neutral faction and the other is the Nakahama faction. They are the only two people Shibu Taniguchi can use! Koshikawa Kachu needs to find a new backer, but Tomisaka Teru does not.
Now, with war approaching, he could no longer remain neutral. Otherwise, he and his combat squadron will be the first to die!
Meng Shaoyuan promptly presented him with the opportunity to rejoin the team! However, Koshigawa Kachu still had some hesitation: "Sir, the question is, will Gono Makiko and Takahashi Kosuke of the mobile squadron agree?" Yes, even if a captain is selected, it must be from the two of them. Pick one.
Now, instead of letting a squadron leader who had participated in the mutiny take this position? This doesn't seem to make sense.
"If you are willing to go all out to assist me, there is nothing you can do." Meng Shaoyuan said his plan unhurriedly.
Tomisaka Teru and Koshikawa Kachu's faces were uncertain. Shibu Taniguchi had given them a promise, and now it was time for them to make a choice.
To be fair, if everything goes well according to Taniguchi Shibu's plan, it is completely feasible. It is impossible for people to only receive without giving.
Tomisaka Teru no longer hesitated: "Sir, I will only follow your lead."
"Me too, Your Excellency." Koshigawa Hezhong finally made his choice: "No matter what you ask me to do, I will do it at any cost."
"Very good, everyone." Meng Shaoyuan stood up and said, "Then, tomorrow, let us create a better future together!"
