Liu Wei not only spoke but also gave Liu Lang support.

If there was any major move in the military system this year, it would be the first time in the country to award the title of rank in a large scale in addition to continuing to pursue the army of the principality in the strategic shift and continue to reorganize the ordnances to import large amounts of arms.

The Kingdom re-established the "Official Tab" and "Soldier Level Table". By March, a new military rank rank table was promulgated, which divided the generals into first and second levels, and at the same time added the rank of special generals. Since April, the Kingdom has successively awarded the ranks of senior generals of the Kingdom Army, and the ranks of the Kingdom were standardized for the first time.

This is also the first time that the Kingdom has standardized the title of rank nationwide by the Kingdom's modern military rank system modeled after the late Qing Dynasty to the present more than 20 years ago. While standardizing the title of rank to reorganize the ranks of the military in all countries across the country, it also curbs the proliferation of the ranks of generals.

Obviously, Liu Wei also had a strong crisis. He must grasp the power of Qiu Tongzhou while strengthening his strength.

And Liu Lang, the capable nephew, is the key to strengthening his own strength.

Therefore, before Liu Lang returned to the Independent Regiment in the first half of the year, Liu Wei recommended Liu Lang to be promoted to the army major general in the name of the Duchy of Tongzhou Prefecture of the Seventh Route Army as the Duchy of Heqiu Tongzhou Prefecture Government. Originally, in Liu Wei's opinion, this was almost no difficulty.

As a meritorious minister who won two medals of honor to fight the Black Hawk Empire, Liu Lang, who has been promoted to colonel for more than two years, is definitely qualified. The organization of an independent regiment is not much smaller than a brigade with 4,500 people. In addition, the recommendation of him, Governor Qiu Tong and Commander-in-Chief of the Seventh Route Army, the kingdom will give him this face no matter what.

Liu Wei has even made plans to expand the independent regiment into an independent brigade. The combat power of an independent brigade with two infantry regiments is definitely much stronger than that of an independent regiment with only 3,000 people now.

But beyond Liu Wei's expectations, the Wang Guo Military Department approved his recommendation to Yu Shaohua as the brigade commander of the newly formed 61st Brigade of the Seventh Route Army, but he rejected Liu Lang's promotion to major general in the Army.

The reason is that Colonel Liu Lang is still young. If he promotes too quickly, he will be suspected of pulling out seedlings to help grow; and secondly, he is afraid that the generals will not be convinced.

This reason seems nonsense, but it is a reason that Liu Wei had to grit his back teeth. Liu Lang's age is indeed a big problem. He was only 24 years old after 1935. He became a major general at the age of 24, which made those generals who had been nearly fifty years old and became a major general and lieutenant general in their 50s. How could they feel!

Although there is nothing to say about the talented people who do not avoid relatives, they are naturally unhappy with the nonsense. In his opinion, this is the kingdom’s suppression of himself. If he does not want to be promoted to Major General of the Liu Lang Army, he is just afraid that his Liu family’s strength in Qiu Tongzhou is too strong.

The two consecutive recommendations for Liu Lang's promotion were rejected. Even the top leader of the military headquarters, General Hu, the new first-level army general, personally called Liu Wei to appease and mediate. Liu Wei then extinguished his intention to take advantage of the opportunity of awarding titles in 1935 to push Liu Lang to the ranks of generals.

That's why Liu Lang Jianxin Town was found, and Liu Wei immediately jumped out to sway the flag and shouted for him. I think there was also a certain amount of compensation in it.

However, this was all without Liu Lang's knowledge.

Liu Lang himself knows a little about how much he awarded the title this time in 1935. It’s not that he didn’t think about going to strive to enter the ranks of generals one by one.

However, he knew the king's thoughts very much. If he personally went to the capital and expressed his allegiance to the king, it would be a foregone conclusion that the Major General of the Army was embedded in his collar. It would be natural to expand the independent regiment into an independent brigade. The so-called young age is not allowed to give up the general's resignation.

However, the loyalty the king wants is probably not as simple as saying it. First of all, according to the king's old routine, his independent group must be mixed with sand, and several old brothers who have followed him for a long time will be transferred away, and the king's students will be replaced; secondly, the station of Anton City is probably not going to be able to stay there.

The independent regiment, which was still the Central Army, was stuffed into Andong City to mix sand for Qiu Tongzhou. Now, at one time and another, Liu Wei has already taken control of Qiu Tongzhou. The king will never let Liu Lang give this governor Qiu Tong, who was displeased with him.

The worst thing is probably not this, but the Duchy Army, whose intention to advance from Beiqiu Tongzhou to the west of Qiu Tongzhou, was probably the one who was most likely to be transferred to the independent regiment from Beiqiu Tongzhou to pursue the march west. That was what Liu Lang was most reluctant to see.

Although Liu Lang did not follow the Duchy Army throughout the whole journey, he protected Yang Manhong and the several independent soldiers who followed the Duchy Army along the way, he had never spoken a word, but Liu Lang followed the movements of the Duchy Army through the spies of the east-west merchant group.

The Duchy army advanced westward and left the pursuers and entered Qiutongzhou, and arrived in Changqing County in May.

Besides, although he is not at a high level, he is a colonel commander, but he is covered by his cousin. He should not live too leisurely in Qiu Tongzhou. The soldiers who can fight under his command are not just the 3,000 registered officers and soldiers. He has been trained in the countryside for two years according to the regular army. As long as he has experienced a practical battle, he is not an elite soldier, but he is still an available soldier.

In other words, the troops that Captain Liu can now use can exceed 7,000 people at any time, and it is no less than the troops of the commander of the Fourth Division.

With the various weapons he equipped the independent regiment, the combat power of the independent regiment at this time is definitely not comparable to the independent regiment during the Ancient City War three years ago. If it were the independent regiment of this period, Liu Lang would be completely confident that he would defeat the 8th Division with his mountain advantages, without having to rely on sneak attacks on their heavy artillery corps to achieve the result. The super power and firepower of the Storm Rocket Array can definitely let the Black Hawk Empire know what the power of technology is.
