"Don't listen to orders, hehe... Who dares to disobey and obey the general's orders? No matter how brave I am, my subordinates won't dare!" Luo Erhu said angrily.

He usually regarded himself as Chen Tianhua's best confidant, saying that he felt as if he had eaten a fly because he was separated from the general.

Chen Tianhua and Ji Chunsheng ignored Luo Erhu's elongated, bitter face and continued to discuss the issue of military unification that they were both concerned about.

"As for the arrangement of chief officers at all levels after the unification of the military system, the general must have already had a clue, right?" Ji Chunhai asked cautiously.

Chen Tianhua did not hesitate, he nodded and said: "The New Army of the Qing Dynasty will soon follow the Western military system, and the towns, associations, and standards will be changed into divisions, brigades, and regiments. Our second division of the Zhejiang New Army will have three brigades under its jurisdiction.

, the brigade has three regiments under its jurisdiction, and the regiment has three battalions under its jurisdiction, implementing the three-three system."

For Ji Chunsheng and Luo Erhu, the establishment of a teacher is very strange and harsh. According to the Jiangnan dialect, the word "Shi" is a homophone for "Shi".

They didn't care whether it was called a division or an alliance. In short, they believed that this was a good opportunity for army expansion and promotion.

"What about the officers at all levels? Has the general considered it?" Ji Chunsheng continued to ask.

Chen Tianhua is the division commander and senior general, so the deputy division commander and lieutenant general must be Li Xinghong. He may also serve as the brigade commander of the second brigade. This is like a rising tide lifting all boats.

"Some people can decide now. Deputy division commander Li Xinghong and commander of the second brigade, with the rank of lieutenant general, and the chief of staff of the division will of course be your Ji Chunsheng, with the rank of major general. I plan to strengthen the construction of the division-level staff organization to share your responsibilities.

The workload is heavy, and I hope you can often go down and command the brigade in combat."

"Thank you, General, for your trust. I will definitely do my job well." Ji Chunsheng stood up and said seriously.

"Oh... don't be so exaggerated, okay? Let's continue drinking." Chen Tianhua waved his hand and said.

"Drink...general, please." Ji Chunsheng quickly raised his wine cup and greeted Chen Tianhua.

"Where...where else..." Luo Erhu, who was sitting aside and listening carefully, hesitated and became nervous.

It is understandable that Li Xinghong also serves as the commander of the second brigade, but it is difficult to say about the remaining two brigade commanders. Many people are qualified, including himself of course.

Moreover, according to seniority and military merit, now that Zuo Gang is gone, Luo Erhu believes that he is the most qualified and can occupy one of the two brigade commander positions, so there should be no big problem.

Of course Chen Tianhua knew what Luo Erhu meant by the second half of the sentence he was holding back. He pondered for a moment, and Luo Erhu, Chen Er, Jiang Wu, Song Xiaoniu and others turned around in his mind.

"The brigade commander of the first brigade would have been inclined to let Luo Erhu take charge, and the scope of control would be expanded to Huguang's railway construction. Next, we will strengthen road protection and promote road construction."

When Luo Erhu heard this, he was as happy as if he heard the sound of heaven. His mouth opened wide, and he didn't know what to say.

The Second Division only has three brigades in total. He is one of the three generals. This is worthy of celebration.

Chen Tianhua glanced at him, and Luo Erhu immediately sat upright, looking like he was listening, but in fact his heart had already flown out.

"But with a higher position, comes greater responsibility. General Erhu, I hope you will not let me down, and Chief of Staff Ji." Chen Tianhua added lightly.

He deliberately promoted Ji Chunsheng, firstly to increase Ji's prestige among Luo Erhu and others, and secondly, of course, to make Ji Chunsheng understand that he regarded him as more important than Li Xinghong.

"General, please rest assured, Erhu will definitely do his best, bow to the utmost, and die." Luo Erhu stood up and said loudly.

"Well done, Erhu, sit down and drink." Chen Tianhua smiled and motioned for Luo Erhu to sit down.

"Hey, General, where is the commander of the brigade?" Ji Chunsheng asked.

"There's no rush, I already have a few candidates in mind, but I still have to wait for a while and make a decision after inspection!" Chen Tianhua said with a smile.

Ji Chunsheng smiled but did not answer. He already roughly knew who the general's candidate for the third brigade commander was. Only Luo Erhu was still confused. His mind filtered out the senior officers in the entire security force, and he just didn't think of it.

Who is this person?

…

In mid-October of the lunar calendar, winter has already entered the earth. Compared with the heavy snowfall in the north, the south of the Yangtze River is quite subtle, and the chill is not deep.

While Chen Tianhua was inspecting Hanyang, Xu Yunyuan, who was on his mind, had sneaked into Chongming Hailing without anyone noticing, accompanied by only personal guards Song Yu and Han Jing, and five male guards.

Hailing Town, the residence of Navy Vice Admiral Yu Dapeng.

His residence is located in the naval base on the edge of Hailing Town. It is a courtyard house with six green brick houses, and is no different from an ordinary, slightly more prosperous house.

The only difference is that in the small courtyard, the open space that should have been planted with flowers, vegetables, and fruits has been dug into a small pool, and navy ships of various sizes are floating in the pool.

Most of the time when he was idle at home, Yu Dapeng stopped in front of this small pond, fidgeting with the ships one by one with a wooden stick, thinking about the navy's combat strategies in various situations.

"Master, it's time for dinner!"

A delicate-looking woman held her hand on the door frame and called Yu Dapeng.

"Well, here we come!" Yu Dapeng agreed casually without taking his eyes off the ship.

"Master, we are all hungry!" the woman yelled again in annoyance, and glanced at the boats covering the water with a faint look. Only then did Yu Dapeng raise his head in realization, look at the sky and said: "Oh,

I forgot about time again, it’s almost dark, so go ahead and eat!”

After saying that, he threw down the wooden stick of the handkerchief and strode into the dining room.

A boy of thirteen or fourteen years old, with his hands on his knees, sat neatly in front of the rectangular table, his eyes eagerly looking at the food on the table, and his newly developed Adam's apple rolled rapidly. He was obviously hungry, but he was still hungry.

Don't dare to start eating first.

His name is Yu Zhichan, and he is Yu Dapeng’s only son.

Yu Dapeng sat at the top, stretched out his hand to touch his son's head, and said softly: "Eat quickly, hurry up!"

"Hmm..." Yu Zhi quickly responded obediently and couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks.

The woman poured a glass of wine for Yu Dapeng and placed it in front of him. She also served her son a full bowl of rice.

Yu Zhi quickly picked up the rice bowl and started eating with big mouthfuls.

"You kid, eat slowly. It's like you were reincarnated as a hungry ghost. When did your family become hungry?" Seeing this, Yu Dapeng laughed and scolded.

He reached out to pick up the wine glass, took a sip, and snorted, "Madam, where did you buy this wine? This seems to be the authentic Shaoxing Nuerhong. When did our family hide this wine?"

The woman smiled and said: "Master, last time you went to Hudong, you drank this Nuerhong and praised it full of praises when you came back. I later asked someone to bring some jars of kiln food from Shanghai. I prepared some more meat dishes today and started cooking.

A jar to taste."
