Bai Xiaoqi is in trouble.
I want to figure out what I did wrong?
Let’s not talk about it before becoming the commander of the army. Why did Huang Sanhu, a scoundrel, get ahead of him?
No one can lose to Huang Sanhu!
As he was thinking wildly, Zuo Mengeng's hosting continued.
"The Fourth Army was established by resolution of the headquarters. The Seventh Division is composed of the Second Guard Regiment, the First Yizhou Militia Brigade, the First Laiyang Militia Regiment, the First Laixi Militia Regiment, and the First Jiyang Militia Regiment; The Second Brigade of the Second Division, the Qingcheng Militia Regiment, the Xincheng Militia Regiment, the Fourth Reclamation Group Militia Regiment, and the Wendeng Militia Regiment formed the Eighth Division. The Seventh Division and the Eighth Division were merged into the Fourth Army."
Having said this, he glanced at the crowd below.
"Commander of the Fourth Army...Bai Qi, political commissar Le Xinfeng."
Bai Xiaoqi lamented.
"Hey, another person has become a military commander, and he has the same surname as me, why can't I do it? I must ask later, this Bai Qi... eh... wait, isn't Bai Qi myself?"
Bai Xiaoqi jumped up suddenly, and he was three feet tall. He looked like a giant monkey, which made everyone laugh.
He also knew that he had made a fool of himself, his face was red and hot.
Then he thought of something, looked in the direction of Huang Sanhu, and flashed his biceps.
Huang Sanhu couldn't help laughing and pointed to the stage.
Only then did Bai Xiaoqi notice that Zuo Mengeng, Huang Zongxi and other leaders were looking over with black lines on their heads.
He quickly put on a serious look and floated towards the stage.
When he was about to go to the stage, he met his new political commissar and felt a chill in his heart.
"Haha, Le... Manager Le, please give me more advice in the future."
Anyone who sees Le Xinfeng will have their scalp numb.
This general in the New Army had little record, because except for the Battle of Qingshui Pass, he had hardly been on the battlefield.
But no one can underestimate this person.
Because Le Xinfeng was the original garrison brigade commander.
What is a security brigade?
They were always surrounding Zuo Menggeng and the headquarters, responsible for protecting the safety of the center.
No one knows why Le Xinfeng was appointed as this crucial central military leader, but since Zuo Mengeng personally appointed him, it is enough to illustrate his status in Zuo Mengeng's heart.
Now Zuo Mengeng actually released this foreigner and became his political commissar.
Bai Xiaoqi felt that his future life would not be too comfortable.
But no matter what, he finally became a well-deserved army commander.
This means that he is now one of the four great generals.
After this expansion, the new army's organization changed from two corps to four corps, and four divisions were added.
However, except for the fifth division, the rest of the troops need to be integrated and trained, and it will take a long time to form combat effectiveness.
Because the headquarters placed these four divisions in the hinterland of Shandong.
While integrating training, we also maintain local security.
For a long time to come, the combat mission of these four divisions was to suppress bandits.
At this high-level military meeting, Wang Xiuqin and people from the navy were the last to arrive.
But Wang Xiuqin brought what Zuo Mengeng wanted.
"Commander, this is the sample we made. Take a look, is it feasible?"
Wang Xiuqin has been supervising the design and production of new military uniforms in Qingdao.
It took two months and now the finished product is finally available.
But whether it will work or not depends on Zuo Mengeng.
The first thing Wang Xiuqin took out was the standard dress.
The ocher yellow fabric is generally similar to the Chinese tunic.
The difference is that this dress has epaulettes, breast badges and collar badges, and there are silver-white trouser lines on both sides of the trousers.
This uniform is very neatly ironed, and with various badges, it looks very gorgeous.
When everyone saw it, they were all moved.
Zuo Mengeng picked it up and observed the details, still feeling a little regretful.
"It's a pity that it's not woolen, otherwise it would look even better."
There is no animal husbandry in Shandong, so only cotton can be used for clothes.
But the texture of cotton is soft. Even if this dress uses canvas technology, it still cannot be compared with the majestic and gorgeous woolen uniforms of later generations.
However, the entire dress was designed exactly according to his requirements and has met expectations.
The piece in his hand was obviously specially prepared for him.
On the collar and epaulettes, there is a solid gold emblem with the sun and moon shining in the sky. On the outside of the epaulettes, there are three patterns of rice ears, axes, hammers, and swords arranged in sequence.
This is an epaulette that only the commander can wear, and it also represents the commander's identity.
Wang Xiuqin has put on a new military uniform herself, which allows everyone to intuitively see the difference between other uniforms and the commander-in-chief's uniform.
The general styles are similar, and the differences are basically in the badges.
Wang Xiuqin's military rank is major general, so her shoulder patch is a pure gold five-star emblem and only has a set of rice ears.
Upon seeing her dress, many people understood that the Lieutenant General had two golden stars.
At present, in the new army, except for Zuo Mengeng, the person with the highest military rank is lieutenant general.
E Honglue and Zhang Keda also wore formal clothes.
But unlike the army's ocher uniforms, their navy uniforms are pure white.
Obviously, in terms of color alone, pure white uniforms are much more handsome than ocher uniforms.
"Why is our army inferior to their navy?"
Bai Xiaoqi was nagging, very dissatisfied.
"Actually, the original color was grass green, but the current printing and dyeing technology is not available, so it can only be dyed in ocher yellow. When grass green becomes available in the future, it will be changed."
Wang Xiuqin explained, which finally calmed everyone's dissatisfaction.
"Commander, give us a demonstration."
Fu Yijian suggested, which was immediately echoed by everyone.
Zuo Mengeng also wanted to try out the effect of the new dress, so he agreed.
And when he changed into his uniform and came out, everyone was sore.
Zuo Mengeng is 1.88 meters tall and has been practicing martial arts all year round, so his body is very tall and majestic. After wearing the uniform, he is even more energetic.
The folded collar is inlaid with ultra-thin silver pieces that shine in the sunlight.
The cuffs of both sleeves are also embroidered five times with red velvet thread, making Zuo Menggeng's every move look like a real dragon raising its arms, showing extraordinary power.
All buttons on the commander's uniform are made of pure gold. Although the cost is high, in order to highlight the status of the commander-in-chief, investment is still necessary.
In this regard, even if Zuo Mengeng likes to be frugal, he can only do what is good.
What's better than Wang Xiuqin, Zhang Keda, E Honglue and others is that he even changed his shoes.
The shiny leather shoes and the uniform are a perfect match, blinding everyone.
Especially on the chest of his commander-in-chief's uniform, the large piece of colorful seniority stamps are heart-wrenching to look at.
Zuo Mengeng took the new military cap from Wang Xiuqin and put it on, completing all the outfits.
The new military cap refers to the style of our army during the Anti-Japanese War, but the materials used are obviously more sophisticated.
Zuo Menggeng's commander-in-chief's cap is made of two layers of fabric, and a small steel frame is used as a support between the two layers. In this way, the hat will not fall to the ground and always maintain a regular shape.
The most eye-catching thing about this hat is obviously the gold coat of arms above the brim.
On the military emblem, above the intersection of swords, the sun and moon are highlighted, and the periphery is golden ears of rice. At the bottom, there is the Great Wall.
The meaning of the entire military emblem is to protect the Chinese territory under the sun and moon with blood and fire.
As the first person to appear in a new outfit, Zuo Mengeng used himself as a model and instantly conquered everyone.
