District 9

After eating in the morning, Qin Yu left home and whispered to Cha Meng: "Leilei and the child are going back to Yanbei today. You arrange the guards and fly with her."

"Okay." Cha Meng nodded.

…

At ten o'clock in the morning, Qin Yu was sitting in the office, looked up at Daya and asked: "I thought about it, we are now at the division level, do you think we can take charge of the entire mixed brigade by ourselves?"

Da Ya was confused for a long time: "Like our mixed brigade before?"

"Yes." Qin Yu nodded: "We have too few people. We can't just rely on Fatty Teng to support us. We still need to strengthen our military strength."

"To be honest, the mixed brigade has nothing to do." Da Ya shook his head: "We don't have enough armaments, so your entire mixed brigade is just a name. You don't have a tank regiment, nor a regiment-level or battalion-level artillery unit, let alone A special operations unit only relies on infantry to fill its numbers. What kind of mixed brigade is this?"

Qin Yu blinked: "The Sichuan government does not have the ability or technology to build a military factory for the time being. All the tough stuff depends on imports. This is indeed a problem. But I thought about it, even if we just spend more money, We also need to raise a main brigade."

"Brother, you are so anxious to improve your military strength. Have you heard something?" Daya asked sensitively.

Qin Yu lit a cigarette and whispered: "The ninth district and the first war zone sent two divisions to garrison in the direction of Zangyuan. The number of people is about 40,000, which makes me a little insecure. In addition, the seventh district has changed a lot recently. , it’s not very calm. And this time when I went to the Eighth District, Commander Gu kept hinting to me that Salt Island was very critical, and if there was a chance, I must take it. That’s why I was anxious to improve the overall strength of the unit, including the quality of the commander. , as well as the replenishment of armaments and troop sources. These days, if we don’t have a strong foundation ourselves, we won’t be able to go far if we just rely on others to take care of us.”

Daya is currently the person with the highest academic qualifications and the most dazzling military record in Qin Yu's army. His abilities in many aspects have far surpassed the group of people in the division. Because he not only completed one semester at the Army University, but also stayed with a division commander in District 9 for a long time. After completing his studies, he also trained at the grassroots level. He was a senior young officer with both practical and theoretical skills.

After listening to Qin Yu's words, Daya thought carefully and persuaded softly: "Brother, I still don't recommend mixing up brigades. Because if our armament problem is not solved, your subordinate troops will not even be able to train. Just that number will do nothing. Nothing can be done, and our division headquarters can’t approve funding.”

"It makes sense." Qin Yu calmed down after hearing what he said.

"If you really want to build a brigade-level combat unit, my personal suggestion is to build a fully mechanized infantry brigade, with two armored regiments, two mechanized infantry regiments, and two firepower battalions, with a total number of about 7,000 people. "Daya said quickly: "The advantage of this is that there is no need for major reforms in the army. Our regiment has 3,000 people. If we directly redivide it, we can fill up the two mechanized infantry regiments. The remaining armored regiments and The firepower battalion only needs to be replenished with troops and armaments, and the army can be formed in one or two years at most. But the disadvantage is that this method also consumes money. The armored regiment must have a tank battalion, otherwise the combat strength will be very weak. The firepower camp must also have heavy firepower equipment, including self-propelled cannons, 40-barreled rocket launchers, and self-propelled rocket launchers."

Qin Yu blinked: "Can you give me an estimate of how much it will cost to raise this main brigade?"

"It's hard to estimate." Da Ya scratched his head: "I am an officer, not an accountant, brother!"

"Can't you make a fucking estimate?" Qin Yu was very concerned about money.

"Three hundred million as a minimum." Daya thought for a while and replied.

Qin Yu waved his hand directly when he heard the sound: "No more chatting, go, you can go out."

"Brother, this army is the most awesome luxury product. What's in your cannon barrel is not cannonballs, but banknotes." Da Ya persuaded him speechlessly: "We are living in the new era now. Think about it before. At that time, if you used the troops at will, it would cost hundreds of millions!"

Qin Yu touched his head, took a deep breath of cigarette and said: "To pull up a main brigade, we also need to strengthen the other seven regiments. Damn it, the little steel in my pocket is not enough even if it is broken into an eight-petal flower. Use it."

Da Ya didn't say anything because this matter was not within the scope of his consideration.

"If this main mechanical brigade is pulled up, can you figure out the armored regiment?" Qin Yu raised his head and asked.

"Then what is there that you don't understand?" Da Ya immediately replied: "From the training of grassroots soldiers to the construction of units at all levels, I guarantee that it will be more formal than the Eighth District Army."

"Okay, you go out and I'll study the money." Qin Yu nodded.

After Daya left, Qin Yu immediately called Jin Taizhu: "How is your research going?"

Yes, although Qin Yu made a lot of money from the three major families and two major companies, and also took hundreds of millions of military expenses from the Eighth District, a large part of this money was given to the Autonomous Association. Only one-third of the funds used for the construction, expenses, and talent introduction of various administrative departments can be diverted to military expenditures.

In the past, there was only a mixed brigade, which could barely survive with the help of Tiancheng Group, business on the ground, and various connections. But now Qin Yu's army is about to face the problem of expansion. It is already difficult to meet the expenses of the army with these things alone.

Moreover, Sha Yong and Shen Yin have been spending a lot of time recently, and they can't go anywhere. They don't give Qin Yu a chance to earn 70 million, which makes him very worried...

Therefore, if you want to do something big at once, the best way is to take Yandao.

As long as he can move this place, even if he can't get any cash here for the time being, Qin Yu can still shamelessly go to the Eighth District to ask Gu for a large loan, and the other party will definitely approve it.

Kim Tae-soo paused and said: "Lin Chengdong has already targeted the person I selected, and we are studying how to make a move. But they are short of manpower, so you have to arrange some reliable ones."

"No problem, I'll give you whatever you need. Hurry up and find some clues." Qin Yu almost didn't let the other party come up with a plan first, and then he took this plan to Commander Gu to defraud him.

"I'll go back tomorrow and let's talk about the details..." Kim Tae-soo thought for a moment and replied.

"good."

…

Fengbei, District 9.

Sha Yong sat on the sofa in the apartment, stepped in and looked at Guan Qi: "What's the news about Kim Tae-soo?"

Guan Qi looked at him and replied with a smile: "Qin Yu buried two big ghosts in the fifth district, with the intention of helping Jin Taizhu operate the salt island."

Sha Yong immediately cheered up after hearing this: "Qin Yu has someone in the fifth district? Who is it? Is it the old man Tiancheng?"

"Haha." Guan Qi smiled.

Sha Yong frowned and looked at him: "Why are you laughing?"

"Who it is, I definitely can't tell you." Guan Qi stared at him and replied clearly.

Sha Yong was stunned.
