At the headquarters of the Zhenbei Army, Xue Lin was thinking about the troops in his hands.

At present, there are more than 60,000 troops in four divisions in Jinzhou, the first armored division is resting around the headquarters and is responsible for the security of the headquarters, the second division, the third division, and the fourth division are attacking the urban area of Jinzhou, and the big black mountain was taken at noon, and the 11th Wing of the Japanese army retreated decisively to the port area after the fall of the urban areas on both sides, and did not give the Zhenbei army a chance to eat them.

The 10th Jinzhou Division had been destroyed, and Xue Lin left one regiment to occupy the Liaoxi Corridor, leaving one regiment and a brigade of the 5th Division to quickly support the Liaodong Peninsula.

Dandong has three brigades and an armored regiment, nearly 27,000 men, which have blocked the Yalu River bridge and are engaged in an artillery battle with the Japanese troops on the opposite bank.

The puppet army units reorganized in Fengtian and Changchun were also reorganized into two garrison divisions, and the police forces in major cities were also expanded into garrison regiments, which were sent to various places to eliminate the remnants of the Japanese army and recover all the northeast.

In total, the current Zhenbei Army has one armored division, four infantry divisions, two artillery brigades, one independent heavy artillery brigade, one cavalry brigade, as well as two garrison divisions and five garrison regiments.

Not counting the artillery units and garrison troops, the field troops in Xue Lin's hands have five divisions, 16 brigades, 48 regiments, and 120,000 regular troops!

And if you count the artillery units and garrison units, there are 190,000 people in total, and if you count the logistics department and other military departments, it is a proper 200,000 people!

It's not that he doesn't know, he was shocked, Xue Lin was shocked, when he went south from Fengtian, there were only 46,000 people, and after half a month, he already had 200,000 troops!

He gasped, his 200,000 troops cost more than 15 million yuan just to raise them, which is more expensive than the Northeast Army!

The military expenditure of the 400,000 Northeast Army is only more than 20 million, and the Zhenbei Army is only half of the Northeast Army, but the military expenditure is three-quarters of that of the Northeast Army!

The main reason is that the armored troops in Xue Lin's hands are too difficult to raise, which is still raised by relying on the Red Alert system and the Red Alert Logistics Center, otherwise an armored division alone will cost five million military expenses every year.

And the cost of forming a regular armored division is even more astronomical!

Before the real development of heavy industrial forces, Xue Lin does not plan to form an armored division, at present, this armored division, 160 KV heavy tanks and more than 300 BT-7 tanks and infantry combat vehicles alone make his heart tremble.

Even the German armored division in 1944 was far from this configuration, the German armored division since 1941 after the abolition of the armored brigade establishment, the armored division directly under the jurisdiction of two tank regiments or three tank regiments, although the establishment is very chaotic, but the general tank regiment is only 160 tanks, an armored division is only about 300 tanks.

Xue Lin's First Armored Division originally had only two armored brigades and one heavy tank regiment, but now after the expansion of an armored brigade, it is already a strategic force at the level of a super-heavy armored division......

At present, each regiment of the Zhenbei Army has 2,000 men, and the three regiments form a brigade, plus other artillery, communications, logistics, field hospitals, engineers, reconnaissance troops, and other auxiliary units, and one brigade has more than 7,000 people.

The three brigades form a division with a personnel establishment of more than 25,000 people, and unlike European and American countries, the troops of the Zhenbei Army are all three-three systems and have a super-large establishment, and one brigade is almost the level of a reinforced brigade of other people, and one division is at the top of two divisions of European and American countries.

After strengthening the brigade-level strength, under the cover of the air force, the brigade-level can be directly used as the main combat unit, and a brigade of the Zhenbei Army has more than 7,000 people, while a division in Europe and the United States is generally four regiments and two brigades, with only about 11,000 people.

"Hey, it's really not that I don't know, I'm shocked. Xue Lin took the statistical list of the Zhenbei Army and smiled at Jiang Baili: "I don't know when I will have 200,000 troops?!"

Jiang Baili on the side also smiled: "The entire Japanese army in the island country is only more than 300,000, and when you finish fighting the little devils, I'm afraid that your 200,000 people will make the more than 300,000 Northeast Army in North China and the Central Army in the south tremble!"

"Hahahaha!" Xue Lin laughed heartily.

But after laughing, another question made Xue Lin frown.

The army has expanded so much, according to the ratio of 10:1, it will take at least 20,000 Red Police soldiers to transform all these troops into elite troops.

But it is impossible, Xue Lin is almost upgraded to the commander of the rank of major general of the red police system, and the number of recruits of 20,000 red police units will only be at that time.

(There was a mistake in writing a chapter before, at present, Xue Lin's commander level in the red police system is the rank of colonel, brigade level, and he can recruit 8,000 red police units, and the next level of major general, division level, can recruit 20,000 red police units.) )

When the time comes, when the Japanese army is finished and immersed in the development of the three eastern provinces, the army must also be sent to the national training center for reorganization, and at least it is necessary to ensure that these five divisions, with nearly 120,000 elites, are all in their own hands, and the local garrison units below can appropriately reduce the number of red police officers, and the police force and basic officers can arrange for the red police soldiers who are about to retire after being disabled.

"Report!" At this time, a staff officer suddenly trotted in: "Shanghai emergency call!"

"Oh?" Xue Lin took the telegram, and Chen Zhen and Jiang Baili also gathered around.

"The temple is a great victory!" Seeing the content of the telegram, Jiang Baili couldn't help but read it out.

Then he was surprised: "The Japanese army increased the number of three divisions in Shanghai, nearly 80,000 people, and the 19th Route Army and the Fifth Army actually won?!"

Not only Jiang Baili was surprised, but even Xue Lin couldn't help but be surprised.

In history, the 19th Route Army and the Fifth Army combined were only more than 50,000 people, and the Japanese army only reinforced a division and a brigade at the time of the great victory of the temple, with more than 30,000 people.

But I didn't expect that after the Japanese army reinforced three divisions and one brigade, with a total strength of nearly 80,000 troops, the 19th Route Army and the Fifth Army, which only had 50,000 people, also won?

After carefully reading the telegram, it mentioned that the Japanese army dispatched two divisions, but the 19th Route Army had strong firepower and continuous artillery support, and finally defeated the two divisions of the Japanese army and won a great victory in Miaoxing.

Xue Lin nodded thoughtfully, it seems that the batch of munitions that were supported at the beginning played a key role, leveling the artillery strength of the Huaxia army and the Japanese army a lot, so that the Japanese artillery could not achieve an overwhelming advantage.

"Where is the North Sea Fleet?" Xue Lin asked the staff officer.

Hearing this, Jiang Baili couldn't help frowning in confusion.

"Report! The North Sea Fleet has reached the northern part of the Luzon Sea! It is expected to arrive in Shanghai tomorrow!" The staff officer immediately pulled out the fleet's telegram and reported to Xue Lin.
