During the War of Resistance Against Japan: After being scattered at Cangyunling, he brought back a

"A standard army group has 6 to 8 personnel!"

"This allows for rapid troop deployment, enabling both large-scale operations and dispersed combat!"

"But within our entire new Third Front Army, the largest force is Old Yang's First Group Army, which only has a little over 45,000 men!"

"There is still great potential for development here!"

"Now the entire three provinces of Northeast China have been captured, backed by tens of millions of people, plus the credibility of the new Third Front Army!"

"Fully staffing each unit to the standard formation of an army group is not a difficult task!"

Ding Wei spoke thoughtfully.

"Ok!"

Xie Jinyuan nodded.

Among the entire Jin-Northwest Iron Triangle, Ding Wei is a true leader with the best overall strategic vision.

Moreover, he has a much better grasp of these major directions than the others!

"Old Ding!"

"Eighty thousand people is outrageous!"

"How many troops did Yoshio Shinotsuka have under his command when we were in northwestern Shanxi?"

"Whether 80,000 troops will cause the army to become bloated and affect mobility has not been tested. Putting those aside, even if they are all at full strength, eight army groups would not be able to handle all this equipment!"

Li Yunlong, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but frown and speak up.

The total number of Kwantung Army troops was 700,000, plus the two tank armies of the fighting nation, totaling more than 800,000 troops and equipment. Even when they were at Qindao Port, the 29th Army was given a lot of equipment!

But that's just a drop in the ocean!

Even with full strength, the additional troops are far from enough!

"Commander-in-Chief!"

"Since eight army groups can't take it all!"

"Then let's establish a new one!"

"Anyway, we don't have to worry about manpower or weapons and equipment right now!"

Li Yunlong couldn't help but speak again.

The three northeastern provinces have become the sole domain of the new Third Front Army, and now no one cares about its continuous expansion.

"Then it's your decision!"

Xie Jinyuan looked at Li Yunlong with a teasing expression.

"Commander-in-Chief!"

"Judging from our inventory of equipment, doubling our strength is not a problem!"

Li Yunlong quickly spoke up.

"Old Li!"

"What the hell are you talking about!"

Kong Jie quickly gave Li Yunlong a wink.

It's good that Lao Li dared to say that. You know, how long has it taken for the New Third Front Army to develop to its current state?

And now?

Double the size?

That means eight army groups?

Isn't this a joke!

"Old Kong! What's going on here?"

Li Yunlong, standing to the side, was still looking puzzled, completely unaware of the increasingly unpleasant expression on Zhao Zhengwei's face next to the Commander-in-Chief.

"okay!"

"A decision has been made by the General Headquarters!"

"In addition to their main missions, each army group must also carry out expansion tasks!"

"We must complete the full staffing as quickly as possible!"

"Improve the command system!"

"At the same time, the three northeastern provinces have been fully recovered!"

"By decision of the General Staff, the size of the Army will be comprehensively expanded!"

"In addition to the existing ones, six more army groups will be added: the Ninth, Tenth, Eleventh, Twelfth, Thirteenth, and Fourteenth Army Groups!"

Xie Jinyuan spoke slowly.

"Six?"

"Old Xie, you..."

Zhao Gang, who was standing to the side, could no longer hold back. Six army groups?

Wouldn't that make a total of fourteen army groups?

However, before he could finish speaking, Xie Jinyuan waved his hand to interrupt him.

"The establishment of the six army groups was also achieved by drawing officers from various departments to build the initial team!"

"Secondly, after the full-scale recruitment begins, we will expand the ranks to full strength!"

"Did you hear everything clearly?"

Xie Jinyuan said loudly.

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

All the commanders stood up and shouted.

Fourteen army groups—even Chongqing doesn't have such a large-scale operation!

As members of the new Third Front Army, they were naturally more excited the stronger the troops were!

"Ok!"

"The Rocket Force is down there!"

"Wang Chengzhu!"

"To!"

Wang Chengzhu suddenly stood up.

"The Rocket Force has always been the strongest firepower of the Army and is indispensable in large-scale battles!"

"Based on past performances, they have all been outstanding!"

"But at the same time, the Rocket Force also has a fatal flaw!"

"Commander-in-Chief!"

"what do you mean?"

Wang Chengzhu said in a deep voice.

"scale!"

"Even Manovsky's two armored army groups, which are not considered elite, have formidable rocket forces!"

"It is conceivable that in the upcoming battles, the Rocket Force will no longer be able to achieve comprehensive suppression through firepower!"

Xie Jinyuan shook his head.

With 500,000 steel army units marching south, no one can be certain how many rocket units are involved.

"Commander-in-Chief!"

"Although the Rocket Force has been expanding in size!"

"And there's also the full support of the Fengtian Arsenal!"

“But the fighting nation is, after all…” Wang Chengzhu said hesitantly.

The fighting nation's national strength far surpasses that of China, not to mention that the current New Third Army cannot represent China at all.

The gap between a local military force and the entire national apparatus is enormous!

After all, it can't compete with just resource integration.

"It doesn't matter!"
