Although the two men answered straightforwardly, it would still be very difficult to really get them to act according to Meng Shaoyuan's ideas.

Meng Shaoyuan was not in a hurry: "You all know the current situation of the security forces. In order to facilitate future operations, I have decided to make some changes to the security forces."

change?

What kind of change?

This involves drinking a lot of people.

Tomisaka Teru and Koshikawa Kanaka were immediately impressed.

"Have tea, you two."

Meng Shaoyuan was not in a hurry and took a sip of tea before saying: "The entire security force is divided into four combat squadrons and two mobile squadrons. This will cause great disadvantages in terms of command.

Therefore, I decided to organize the four combat squadrons into two infantry combat groups, and appointed two group captains to be directly responsible to me."

Tomisaka Teru and Koshigawa Kazaka were startled for a moment.

Reorganize?

This is tantamount to centralizing power.

You know, Shimata and Hiiro had thought about this before, but they were strongly opposed by Nakahama Matsutomi, who was worried about being decentralized.

Now, Shimata, Hiiro and Nakahama Matsutomi are all dead.

"Shibu Taniguchi" proposed this plan again.

It's doable.

The problem is the selection of these two captains, no matter who is chosen, there will be problems.

"The 2nd and 4th Combat Squadrons are organized into the 2nd Infantry Combat Group. My opinion on the candidate for the group leader is Tomisaka-kun."

When Meng Shaoyuan put forward his idea, a trace of excitement flashed across Tomisaka Teru's face.

This is a direct promotion for myself.

Although Manila will soon be directly attacked, the improvement of its status is always the most immediate concern of everyone.

The same goes for Teru Tomisaka.

He never imagined that when the new commander came, he would think so highly of himself.

This is also the result that Meng Shaoyuan had expected.

Tomisaka Teru is a neutral member of the security forces, while Koshikawa Kanaka is a member of Nakahama Matsutomi.

The two people belong to different factions.

When people from different factions, or even people from the same faction, sit together in a meeting, they must all hope that they can gain the attention of their new boss.

Meng Shaoyuan made good use of this mentality, and in the shortest possible time, Teru Tomisaka felt that he valued him, and also made him feel close to him.

But for Koshigawa Hezhong, it caused subtle changes in his psychology quickly.

He was originally a wealthy man in Nakahama, but he was never appreciated by his superiors.

After Mitsutomi Nakahama died in a mutiny, his position with the Fourth Squadron became even more delicate.

Although there is no further settlement of accounts, the attitude of the new commander has made it clear.

Koshigawa Kachu also made a decision. No matter what happens, he and the Fourth Squadron will remain neutral.

Never get involved in anything.

"At the same time, I will form the first and third squadrons into the first infantry combat brigade." Meng Shaoyuan ignored Koshigawa Hezhong and continued to say: "I have already preliminary candidates for the brigade captain."

He did not say who he had in mind, but continued: "It still has two infantry squadrons under its jurisdiction.

As for the choice of captain, I have thought about it for a long time and can discuss it with you."

Having said this, he paused and then said: "Koshikawa-kun, are you confident that you can serve as the captain well?"

"What?"

Koshigawa Hezhong, who was originally absent-minded, was stunned when he heard this. Himself?,

Serve as captain?

He never thought about it at all.

"Koshikawa-kun, don't be nervous."

Meng Shaoyuan smiled and said: "I have thought carefully about it. I invited you here today because I wanted to treat each other candidly and heart-to-heart.

I must be honest and say that your squadron has been marginalized before, and after Mitsutomi Nakahama's rebellion, the status of the 4th Combat Squadron became even more delicate.

After Mr. Shimado received a batch of arms, the 4th Infantry Squadron was not even issued a single bullet. Even I think this is an unfair thing."

He spoke entirely from the standpoint of the Fourth Combat Squadron: "If you continue to command the Fourth Infantry Squadron, I'm worried that you will still be squeezed out.

Therefore, I have decided that you will be the captain of the newly formed mobile brigade."

Koshigawa Hezhong didn't know what to say at all.

He was already disheartened, but he never thought that such unexpected joy would fall from the sky.

I have always misunderstood Taniguchi-dono before.

"Of course, I need your attitude." Meng Shaoyuan said slowly: "Now, please answer me clearly, are you able to hold this position well?"

Koshigawa Hezhong knew that this was his best chance: "Your Excellency Taniguchi, if you entrust me with such an important task, I will swear allegiance to you to the death!"

I swear allegiance to you!

After Mitsutomi Nakahama's death, Koshigawa Kachinaka's backstage collapsed, and now a new and more powerful backstage has emerged!

In fact, both Teru Tomisaka and Kanaka Koshigawa knew very well that it was not Shibu Taniguchi who valued them particularly.

It's that the new commander has just taken office and urgently needs to form a new team that will fully obey his orders.

In the past, Shimada and Hiiro had been operating here for so long, and they were basically his people.

Tomisaka Teru and Koshikawa Kanaka will not use it.

One of them is the neutral faction and the other is the Nakahama faction.

They are the only two people Shibu Taniguchi can use!

Koshikawa Kanaka needs to find a new backer, but Tomisaka Teru does not.

Now, as the war approaches, he can no longer remain neutral.

Otherwise, he and his combat squadron must be the first to die!

Meng Shaoyuan promptly presented him with the opportunity to rejoin the team!

However, Koshigawa Kachu still had some hesitation: "Sir, the question is, will Gono Makiko and Takahashi Kosuke of the Mobile Squadron agree?"

Yes, even if you have to choose a captain, you must choose one from the two of them.

Now, instead, let a squadron leader who had participated in the mutiny take up this position?

This seems impossible to explain.

"If you are willing to go all out to assist me, there is nothing you can do."

Meng Shaoyuan told his plan unhurriedly.

Teru Tomisaka and Kanaka Koshikawa had uncertain faces.

Shibu Taniguchi has given them a promise, and now it's time for them to make a choice.

To be fair, if everything goes well according to Taniguchi Shibu's plan, it is completely feasible.

People cannot only receive without giving.

Tomisaka Teru no longer hesitated: "Sir, I will only follow your lead."

"Me too, Your Excellency." Koshigawa Hezhong finally made his choice: "No matter what you ask me to do, I will do it at any cost."

"Very good, everyone." Meng Shaoyuan stood up and said:
Chapter completed!
