Yes, when the Japanese troops suppressed Wuhan, the Second Guard Regiment of the Ninth Theater Zone was established, with its first commander Zhou Fangjie.
Unlike the wealthy First Guard Regiment, the weapons and equipment of the Second Guard Regiment can only be divided according to the normal direct line troops of the Central Army, and more importantly, it is not a reinforced regiment.
In fact, when Zhou Fangjie first received the order to serve as the commander of the Second Guard Regiment, he was quite hesitant, but he had no choice because it was an order from his superiors.
"Regiment leader, why do you look a little unhappy?" Liao Pinshun, the first chief of staff of the Second Guard Regiment of the Ninth Theater District, said. He was transferred from other troops and did not follow Zhou Fangjie from the 71st Army.
In fact, from Zhou Fangjie's point of view, no matter how bad the 71st Army is, it is still the main regiment under Commander Song as the regiment leader. They get whatever they want. Unlike the Second Guard Regiment, everything is started from scratch.
New troops, new soldiers, new officers, new equipment, everything is new, so it is equivalent to starting a new business from scratch.
Because of this, Zhou Fangjie felt a lot of pressure. If he had to use a film and television analogy, it could only be compared to when Li Yunlong was transferred from the old army to a new regiment in "Bright Sword".
From the main force, the Shinichi Regiment, to the independent regiment that was transferred to the Yamamoto Special Agents, they are almost all of the same nature.
"Although we are now a security force directly under the theater, the size of our force is still too small compared to Zhang Tianhai's First Guard Regiment. The size of their force has exceeded a brigade." Zhou Fangjie said with a wry smile. As the deputy commander of the First Guard Regiment, he is very aware of the potential contained in this unit.
"A brigade?" The chief of staff was stunned.
"Yes, it's a brigade." Zhou Fangjie nodded, "Captain Zhang Tianhai of the First Police Regiment is not a simple figure. I was his deputy commander at the time. It expanded from a reinforced regiment with 2,500 people to today's There are more than 6,000 people, and the troops under our command are strong and strong, including infantry battalions, cavalry battalions, artillery battalions, and even engineering companies, small artillery companies, and mortar companies."
Zhou Fangjie pointed out the power of the First Police Regiment in detail. Because he knew how powerful the First Police Regiment was, compared with the Second Police Regiment that he had just established, he felt a sense of disparity.
It's not that Zhou Fangjie doesn't have confidence in himself, but because the gap is really too big.
"No wonder you, the regiment leader, are so emotional. If our regiment develops, we won't be so far behind the first regiment." The chief of staff said with determination on his face.
"I hope so! But no matter what, we have to find ways to lead the troops well and build this force into a force that dares to take the lead! The Police Regiment is indeed developing faster than us and is larger in scale, but As a war zone security force, we will not be much worse than them." Zhou Fangjie's eyes revealed a firmness. He once worked with Zhang Tianhai, and even his life was saved by Zhang Tianhai from Nanjing. He I don’t want to be ranked behind Zhang Tianhai forever.
Zhang Yulin, just wait for me! When my second police regiment expands, it will be able to help you, or we can say we will fight side by side to drive away the Japanese invaders. Zhou Fangjie murmured to himself, but his voice was so low that no one could hear him, including the chief of staff beside him.
"I am willing to fight with you to the end to drive out the Japanese aggressors and return China to me." Chief of Staff Fang Zhongjian had a fanaticism in his eyes. He could feel that Captain Zhou was by no means an ordinary person. In other words, his future is still very bright.
Fang Zhongjian was not an officer from Huangpu. He graduated from the Yunnan Military Academy. He was just from Hubei and belonged to the category of people promoted from the front line.
In fact, it does not mean that those born in Huangpu must be the best among people, while officers born in other military schools or martial arts halls are not capable, or whatever - it is not easy for people who can have a place in this era, especially people like It is indeed not easy for Fang Zhongjian, who was born in a local martial arts hall, to serve as chief of staff in a direct line unit of the Central Military Commission.
It's unknown what Zhou Fangjie's attitude is towards the new chief of staff, but what is certain is that Fang Zhongjian must have wanted to put his treasure on Commander Zhou - why do you say that? Because Captain Zhou was born in the direct line of the Central Military Army, and was a student who graduated from the sixth class of Huangpu. He took up the position of commander at a young age, and he was the deputy commander of a unit such as the First Guard Regiment. It was absolutely incredible. It is not easy to be with someone.
"Since the Chief of Staff has this confidence, I, Zhou, am also very happy. As for how our regiment should plan and build in the future, we still need to come up with a detailed plan. Leave this task to the Chief of Staff! Let's go first. Just go and meet our three battalion commanders." Zhou Fangjie waved his hand, his steps were very heroic.
Zhou Fangjie had already read the information about these three new battalion commanders more than once. He wanted to accurately grasp this regiment.
One good thing about the guard force is that no matter what, the backbone of this force must be composed of direct graduates of Huangpu.
Without exception, these three battalion commanders are all graduates of the eighth and ninth classes of Huangpu.

Back to two weeks ago.
Location: Wuhan, Ninth Theater Command Headquarters.
"Sir Chen, we are in a tight situation around Wuhan. Do we have any money left to continue to build our security forces?" Chief of Staff Yu Hai asked.
"No matter what, our security forces must be well established. Besides, aren't our security forces, like the First Guard Regiment, also sent to the front line?" Chen Cheng had a serious look on his face, like He has seen the combat effectiveness and excellence of the First Guard Regiment, so he wants to create another such unit.
"Sir, I understand the humble position. You want this newly established Second Guard Regiment to be as good at fighting as the First Guard Regiment, and then put it on the front line to shine, right?" Yu Hai asked.
"You can understand it this way! The First Guard Regiment, this unit left a really deep impression on me. And I never thought that such a unit could defeat such a powerful enemy, so I think It is necessary to establish another such force." Chen Cheng said very seriously.
"So, have you decided on the candidate for the new captain?" Yu Hai asked, after all, this is one of his responsibilities.
"Director Yu, you don't have to worry. I have already thought about it. Let Zhou Fangjie, who previously served as the deputy commander of the first regiment directly under the third theater of the Third War Zone, the predecessor of the first guard regiment, take charge of the overall situation! This kid is under Zhang Tianhai's His subordinate has held such an important position and must be able to learn some hard things, so it is perfect for him to preside over it." Chen Cheng said, he said so, but there were still some words in his heart that he had not said. .
What are the words? This sentence means that no matter how capable and capable Zhang Tianhai is, he was promoted by He Yingqin, not Chen Cheng.
This inner defense cannot be eliminated in a short while.
