Hu Bin told Li Nian about the telegram sent by Commander Peng, saying that Hu Bin would continue to recruit 60,000 people.≧

Li Nian laughed when she heard this.

"I'm saying why are you laughing at? Do we need so many troops in one division? I'm planning, Commander Peng wants to cheat me. Look, he asked me to recruit so many troops, just to prevent me from going to the front line in person? Right?" Hu Bin saw Li Nian smiling there, and immediately started talking as he looked at Li Nian.

"That's right, Commander Peng really means this. You don't think about it. You are the commander in Hubei and the commander in Myanmar. You have hundreds of thousands of troops under your command, and now it is 20,000 troops. Can Commander Peng agree?

It’s not that you have insufficient experience, it’s because you want to go to the front line, and Commander Peng must know what you are doing in the arsenal. You said, Commander Peng is relieved to let you go to the front line? If it were me, I would also let you be a commander, so the possibility of you going to the front line in person will not be too great." Li Nian looked at Hu Bin and said.

"I knew it was like this. If you don't want to, don't want to recruit first!" Hu Bin heard it and nodded. He was not sure before. Now, after hearing what Li Nian said, he immediately decided not to recruit new recruits.

"That's not OK. It's not OK to recruit so many, but it's not OK. Our troops also need to be supplemented. Who will we ask for new recruits when we want new recruits? You can't expect other new recruits trained by other troops to hand them over to you, right?" Li Nian heard it and immediately rejected it.

"Then we will recruit 20,000 people, and one more person is not enough. Now we don't lack troops at all. More than 2 million troops are equipped with good weapons. What are we afraid of? We are not going to recruit troops. Anyway, I don't want to recruit so many troops and trap myself in it." Hu Bin sat there and said to Li Nian.

"Okay, 20,000 people are only 20,000, but other leaders still have high expectations for you. Think about it, you have experience in commanding a war, and the conditions here are also OK.

Also, this time the organization arranged so many veteran generals to come to us. The new chief of staff is Ye Xiaohua. I remember that it should be the one from your father's regiment and Ye Xianteng. It seems that it is your old subordinate, right? I also know the others, they are all old Red Army soldiers who participated in the Long March.

They were sent to us because we considered that if our troops were to expand in the future, we would have enough commanders. Look at Ye Xianteng, Ye Xiaohua, and Chen Hang are all qualified to be division commanders.

In other words, there were 3 reserve division commanders from above, including Li Qinwei, Xiang Feng, and Fang Lei. Our division had 6 reserve division commanders. If you don’t recruit soldiers, I guess the commander and the commander would not be able to avoid you." Li Nian said as she smoked and looked at Hu Bin.

"You can't help but you think I have any benefits to being a military commander, but I don't have any benefits. I will still stay in the command center. When the political commissar listens to me, he will recruit 20,000 soldiers. If you have any extra one, don't want any more." Hu Bin said with a smile.

"You are not the only one who has the final say. Even if I agree, they will not agree. Our division party committee has 13 votes. Even if I abstain, at least 8 votes are supported to recruit soldiers! Yes, I support you not recruiting soldiers, and it is 8:5. You should recruit more soldiers." Li Nian originally wanted to abstain, but when he saw Hu Bin looking at him, he immediately said.

"Come on, you are the political commissar, you have the power to veto it." Hu Bin looked at him and said.

"I dare, if I dare to veto it directly, do you believe it or not? The next day, Commander Peng and Political Commissar Ren will ask me to report to Peking, and then I will go to Yan'an and be scolded by the commander-in-chief and the commander-in-chief!" Li Nianheng said with a glance at Hu Bin.

"You can't do their ideological work, so that they don't think about expanding their ranks. If the soldiers are there, they are not as powerful as many?" Hu Bin asked again.

"Do you feel that there is no telegram between the Commander-in-Chief, Commander Peng and others? Now they just want you to go back to the arsenal and not go to the front line! Really!" Li Nian said to Hu Bin.

"Oh, no, I have to find a way. I just had a good time last night. Now I'm about to become a canary again. I don't want to recruit soldiers. Humph, if I don't agree to recruit soldiers, I see who will dare to recruit soldiers. I will make me angry. I have a way to deal with them." Hu Bin sighed first, and then said that he had to find a way to recruit soldiers.

Li Nian heard it, laughed, and didn't say anything.

In the next few days, Hu Bin and his friends continued to rescue this place, and the Japanese retreated safely in Jianchang and Ningcheng. Their positions and military camps were taken over by other troops in Yan'an. At this time, those who were transferred to Hu Bin to be cadres also came to Hu Bin to report one after another.

Hu Bin is so comfortable now that he has nothing to do all day long. He either checks the information sent by the special forces or sleeps. Anyway, he has left all the military affairs to them.

The New Year is coming soon, and Hu Bin doesn't plan to take action now. All actions will be discussed after the New Year. However, that morning, as soon as Hu Bin got up, Li Nian came to find him.

"Xiaobin, hold a party committee meeting today. After breakfast, come to my office." Li Nian came over and said to Hu Bin.

When Hu Bin heard this, he stood there and looked at him.

"What are you doing?" Li Nian didn't know why he looked at him like this.

"Why did you have a meeting?" Hu Bin asked while standing there.

"Hehe, recruit soldiers, prepare." Li Nian said to Hu Bin with a smile when he heard Hu Bin ask this.

"You can just pull it down, okay, have a meeting." Hu Bin heard it, looked at Li Nian with contempt, and nodded.

After Hu Bin finished breakfast, he walked to Li Nian's office. As soon as he arrived there, Chief of Staff Ye Xiaohua and the division cadres arrived. In addition, the brigade commanders, political commissar, chief of staff, and the commander of the special forces regiment, political commissar and chief of staff of the two brigades also came over. Hu Bin was the last one to come in.

"All of them are here?" Hu Bin asked with a smile after coming in.

"It's still early, and there's nothing to do now. Come and sit down for a while. Come on, Xiaobin sit down!" Li Nian said to Hu Bin.

When Hu Bin heard this, he nodded, found a seat to sit down, and there were only 13 of them in the conference room.

"Then let's start first. Anyway, there is no big deal now. The meeting will end first?" Li Nian looked at Hu Bin and asked.

"Okay!" Hu Bin nodded.

"Okay, then let's have a meeting. Today, the division commander and I are here to welcome you four to join our team again. The four of you are here, which greatly reduces the work of my division commander and me. We are very grateful for this!" Li Nian said while sitting there.

"This is what we should do, we must do our part-time job!" Deputy Political Commissar Luo Yuanjian said immediately.

"Well, everyone really needs to do their part. There will be two issues at this time. The first one is about the Spring Festival. Now there is only half a month left before the Spring Festival. We must prepare some activities during the Spring Festival so that our soldiers can have a happy Spring Festival.

The second thing is about recruiting soldiers. A few days ago, Commander Peng sent a telegram saying that our troops would pull up our supplementary troops as soon as possible. We have been rescuing disasters before, and now the disaster relief is almost done. It is time for us to recruit new recruits. These are the two things!" Li Nian sat there and spoke.

After Li Nian finished speaking, the people looked at Hu Bin.

"You guys talk first, I'll listen first!" Hu Bin immediately started to speak when he saw them staring at him.

However, everyone will soon look at me and I will look at you.

"What's wrong? What's the matter? "Hu Bin saw them looking at each other and immediately started talking to them.

"Yes, political commissar, division commander, let me talk about the New Year first..." Ye Xiaohua was the first to speak, only talking about the New Year, but he did not talk about the recruitment of the army. Then the others talk about the New Year first, and they kept silent about the recruitment of the army.

Seeing them like this, Li Nian smiled and said with a smile: "You must also talk about the recruitment matters. This is also an important task for our division!" As soon as Li Nian finished speaking, the others immediately looked at Hu Bin.

"What are you looking at him? Tell me your opinions!" Li Nian saw those people staring at Hu Bin and immediately said with a smile.

At this time, Hu Bin rolled his eyes at Li Nian, and Li Nian held back and refused to look at him.

"Listen to the teacher!" the monk sat there and spoke.

"Yes, listen to the teacher!" Xiang Feng nodded and said.

"We also listen to the commander!" At this time, Ye Xiaohua also started to speak, and other cadres nodded and said they heard the commander.

"Can that work? This is not a one-man show, why do you listen to me?" Hu Bin was quite surprised to see them like this.

The monk, Xiang Feng, Fang Lei and the others listened to him and could understand him, but Ye Xiaohua and the others also said that if they heard him, Hu Bin could not understand him, and he had never expressed his opinions to them.

Besides, before they came, Commander Peng must have sent them a telegram to ask them to propose a plan to recruit 60,000 soldiers. Why didn't they dare to say it out? This made Hu Bin not understand.

"That's right, let's talk about it if you have any opinions! This is the division party committee, not a combat meeting!" Li Nian sat there and looked at them and said, feeling very strange, not knowing why those people were different from what he thought.

"Political Commissar, Division Commander, we have just arrived at the army and are not very familiar with the army, so we think it is better to listen to the division commander, so this can ensure that the combat effectiveness of our 99th Division will not decrease!" Deputy Division Commander Ye Xianteng said.

Ye Xianteng used to be his old subordinate, but now he has returned to Hu Bin's side again and has become Hu Bin's deputy commander.

"Huh~?" Hu Bin looked at them with confusion at this time, and he really didn't know where they sang.
