Three days later, Su Yu asked the security regiment and the independent brigade to reorganize into an infantry division with a total strength of 12,000 people and three infantry regiments and an artillery battalion.
Su Yu plans to reorganize the remaining 12,000 reserves into the second division after training.
This amount of troops is far from enough to suppress the situation in Shanglu, because both the Great Eagle Empire's garrison and Citigroup's garrison have more than 10,000 people. In addition, the other side has navy warships. Therefore, if you want to suppress these people, you must have at least 30,000 troops.
Now he has only one division of soldiers who can go to the battlefield. The second division is almost all new soldiers and cannot go to the battlefield at all. In addition, the 39th Army is about to leave, and the burden on his shoulders is even heavier.
Once the 39th Army, which is good at fighting, leaves, it will be time for those ghosts and snake gods in Shanglu to show their fangs.
"Boy."
At the garrison headquarters, He Zhongjun patted Su Yu on the shoulder and said, "The three million compatriots in Shanglu will be left to you to protect. I also know that you are in trouble. No, I will also leave the reserve regiment under my 39th Army to you. The number is not small." There are more than 3,000 people, but they are all trained soldiers. There is only so much I can help you with."
Su Yu looked outside the school grounds and saw hundreds of military trucks taking away all the supplies from the military supplies department. He just smiled awkwardly and said, "Thank you, Uncle He."
"Let's go, do your best, see you in Jinling."
Having said that, He Zhongjun left directly with the 39th Army. They came in a mighty manner and left in the same way. It caused a lot of agitation in Shanglu. After all, the 39th Army was the patron saint of Shanglu.
In the afternoon of that day, Su Yu held the first military meeting at the garrison headquarters.
Six officers sat on both sides of the long table, namely the two brothers Wang Wen and Wang Wu, as well as Liao Yuanliang, as well as the former independent brigade commander Deng Liang, deputy brigade commander He Yushan, and chief of staff Wu Hongxin.
"Brothers, now that the 39th Army has left, the task of guarding Shanglu has been handed over to us."
Su Yu looked at the six people and said, "Because we have few troops and too many new recruits, we need to establish the troops as soon as possible. My initial plan is to establish three infantry divisions."
"commander."
Liao Yuanliang looked at Su Yu and said, "If three divisions are established, then we are still short of 9,000 soldiers, 21,000 rifles, 800 light machine guns, 350 heavy machine guns, 350 mortars, and 75mm 75 field guns.”
Hearing this number, he also felt a chill in his head and called his 'dad' too cruel. He wanted the horse to run but didn't feed the horse.
"besides."
Wang Wen also stood up and said, "If the military strength is expanded by at least 3 infantry divisions, then the total strength of our headquarters will reach 38,000 people. Based on the average military salary of the regular army of 6 yuan, we will spend 22.8 yuan in military salary every month. Ten thousand, the required logistics costs, food, drink, and toileting for the soldiers will cost at least 150,000 silver dollars per month, and the total monthly operating funds will require at least 380,000 silver dollars."
"Hey, it's money again!"
Su Yu sighed and said, "Let's take care of things one by one. In this way, we should leave the matter of the recruits to Yuan Liang. You can recruit these nine thousand recruits. I will give you half a month. As for the equipment, I will take care of it."
"What we lack now is a military commander," Su Yu said with a headache. "The first infantry division will be handed over to Yuan Liang. You will be the division commander. As for the officers below, you can take care of it yourself.
The second division will be handed over to Yushan, and the third division. I plan to transfer Guo Dahai from my father. This person has the same personality as mine and has participated in actual combat. He is very suitable to lead the second division. Three divisions. "
"Everyone, time is running out. I hope everyone can work together to get through this hurdle."
"Yes, Commander."
Everyone stood up and saluted Su Yu and shouted. They were also looking forward to the moment when the Shanglu Security Command was completed and successful.
As this meeting ended, various departments began to mobilize urgently. Fortunately, his father did not take away the heads of the Logistics Department, the Munitions Department and other major organizations, otherwise the Shanglu Security Command would really not be able to operate. .
Three days passed in a blink of an eye, and everyone in the headquarters was busy.
The commander is training soldiers, and the logistics department is urgently purchasing military supplies, especially food, which must be stored for a month, and paying soldiers' salaries.
As for Su Yu, he is buying equipment.
This week, because he shot and killed the Japanese samurai at the dock to avenge the workers, he received a scattered reputation of 14,000 points, which could only meet part of the equipment needs.
The rifle was purchased from World Nuclear Ping this time. The reputation value is 98K. If converted into silver dollars, it is 30 silver dollars and 98K each. Because the market price outside is 30 US dollars, which is equivalent to 60 silver dollars. World Nuclear Ping is half the market price.
This time he needed to buy 21,000 98K, and he bought it with silver dollars, because his reputation value was not enough at all, and the total consumption was 630,000 silver dollars.
You know, one silver dollar can now buy 16 kilograms of rice in Shanglu, and 630,000 silver dollars can buy more than 10 million kilograms of rice. It is not cheap.
As for the remaining 800 Czech light machine guns, 350 heavy machine guns, 350 mortars, and 75 field guns, they cost him a total of 13,500 reputation points, and there are still 500 reputation points left on the interface.
With these 500 reputation points, Su Yu bought 166 MP40 submachine guns because he had expanded the guard platoon to a guard camp, all of which were elite soldiers from the security regiment.
"How inexperienced!"
The reputation points of these bullets and shells have been spent before they start. Fortunately, there is still a lot left in the original security group. Even if it is to supply the training of three infantry divisions, it is enough for a month, so he can not buy it for the time being.
In the next three days, all the equipment was delivered one after another, which made Wang Wen, Wang Wu and others jealous. The secret commander was really awesome. In addition, Liao Yuanliang's recruitment of 9,000 new soldiers was completed ahead of schedule, and the personnel and equipment requirements for the three infantry divisions have been fully met.
After confirmation from the outside world, the 39th Army of the Shanglu Guard Command returned to Jinling City. Su Yu is now the commander of the Shanglu Guard Command, and there is only one security group left under his command. Ying Guoguo started to cause trouble.
And at the same time, the inspectors sent by the imperial court also came, bringing diplomats from Japan with them. All the pressure suddenly fell on Su Yu.
Because Su Yuanzhong, the governor of the second province far away in Jinling, claimed that although the Shanglu Guards Command was under his jurisdiction, it had complete independence and autonomy, which could be said to have made the relationship very clear.
After this telegram was sent, the imperial court immediately set off, and the Eagle Countryman could not sit still.
