Three carriages, escorted by a heavily armed cavalry platoon, slowly entered the mountain pass from the mountain road.
Seeing Tang Dao, who was dressed in military uniform, walking quickly, the leading cavalry platoon leader quickly jumped off his horse, stepped forward to greet him with a military salute: "Hello, Chief Tang!"
"Brothers, I have troubled you to protect Tang Dao and his family from afar. Tang Dao would like to express his gratitude!" Tang Dao raised his hand in return and looked around.
"It's your job, sir, you're welcome!" the cavalry platoon leader looked horrified.
More than 30 cavalrymen did not dismount, but they all sat upright on their horses to return the salute.
Even though Tang Dao has arrived, it is still during the mission. The cavalry still do not dismount and maintain a vigilant posture at all times. It can be seen that they are all elites.
That's because this cavalry platoon is affiliated with the 17th Division Headquarters. It is General Baifa's closest bodyguard and is also relatively familiar with Tang Dao.
"Ama!" Tantai Mingyue threw herself at a woman with her hair in a bun and a light blue coat and skirt who stepped out of the carriage.
"My dear girl!" The woman hugged Tantai Mingyue, who rushed towards her, with tears in her eyes.
Although there is always news about my daughter, and I can see special articles signed by my daughter in newspapers from time to time, as a mother, how can I be as secure as seeing my daughter with my own eyes and holding her in my arms? Especially in this kind of situation.
Wartime with raging wars.
"Let me take a good look at my dear girl. She has become darker and thinner! Is there nothing to eat here? Grandma brought you your favorite mung bean cake. Grandma made it herself."
I touched my daughter's face and felt extremely distressed.
"No way, our place may not look like a mountainous area, but there are vegetables and meat, and the food is pretty good. Mom, you will know if you live here for a while." How could Tantai Mingyue let her mother have this impression when she arrived, and she quickly
refute.
"By the way, where is that old bastard of your father? Before he left, he agreed to give money to his daughter, but it turned out to be a good thing. After the money was delivered, this man didn't come back. A whole family of hundreds of people were left to me, but he was
I'll be lazy." The woman looked into the distance and saw no shadow of the handsome old man from Tantai, and her eyebrows suddenly stood up.
In fact, the woman's features are very similar to those of Tantai Mingyue, but she is much richer. This angry look shows off the aura of everyone's mistress.
A group of people standing not far away felt nervous again. Looking at this posture, the future mother-in-law is very powerful!
"Ahem! Madam, my husband is here!" The handsome old man from Tantai came over from the other side of the carriage with a frown, followed by a handsome young man who looked like he was still awake.
The handsome young man looked past everyone and looked curiously at Tang Dao, who was standing as straight as a pine tree. Tang Dao sensed the young man's curious gaze and smiled distantly at him.
The young man was immediately shocked by the soldier's unique demeanor.
If this is my brother-in-law, my appearance and temperament should be fine, and I feel good about myself wherever I sit in the group.
Perhaps Tang Dao has not realized a problem at this time. Since ancient times, young people have been passionate!
"Huh? My dear girl is dark and skinny, why are you the only one who is fat and white? Didn't you stay with your daughter and run out to hang out with your gang of bad friends?" The woman sideways glanced at Mr. Tantai who came over.
Handsome guy, his eyes almost rolled to the sky.
"How can that be possible? Madam, you don't know, right? I am now the director of the military industry department of the Fourth Army Regiment. I led soldiers to fight against the Japs a while ago. If you don't believe me, go and find out." Tantai Yunshu shouted to the sky.
Qu. "Isn't that right, my dear Mingyue!"
The old handsome guy from Tantai probably had this deep-seated henpeck, and for a moment he didn't even notice Tantai Mingyue's reminder of trying to raise her eyebrows.
Originally, I was just worried about my daughter, but now she is a good guy. Both father and daughter have joined the army, and Tang Dao, the future mother-in-law, has something to worry about.
"You..." After hearing that her husband had actually gone to the front line, the woman's face suddenly turned pale.
"Madam, if you have anything to say, let's talk about it when we go back. That handsome man over there is our future son-in-law and my current boss. I have to listen to him in everything, otherwise I will lose my head with a military order. You can take a look and close your eyes first.
No matter what, if you say no, we can change it now, and I will go home with you tomorrow." The old handsome guy from Tantai pointed to the Tang Dao that stood upright like a commander a few meters away, and started to play the trick of diverting misfortune to the east.
set.
Tantai Mingyue almost rolled her eyes with her big eyes. If she had known that her father was actually playing the trick of "dead fellow Taoist, not dead poor Taoist", she even reminded her to let her mother kill him at night.
"Mom, I'm Tang Dao. Thank you for coming all the way!" Tang Dao suppressed the urge to kick away his future old Taishan, who was eager to escape on his own but would not hesitate to trap his son-in-law in hot water, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.
"Haha, Tang Dao! I've seen your photo in the newspaper several times, but this is the first time I've seen you in person. It's just like Guainan said in the letter, you are the best among people! Although you are traveling thousands of miles away this time
, the body is a little hard, but seeing my dear girl and you, this hard work is nothing!" Surprisingly, the woman's attitude towards Tang Dao was particularly gentle.
Tantai Yunshu was stunned. Based on his understanding of his old wife's personality, this shouldn't be like this!
Shouldn't the personality-rich old wife give a cold face to the person who stole her precious daughter to express her dissatisfaction?
Just like when he married his wife thirty years ago, Lao Taishan and his mother-in-law just started to look down on him, right?
Old Tantai was obviously overthinking, and he did not want to think about his reputation before getting married. He was a well-known romantic figure in the circles of famous families in Jiangnan. If Mrs. Tantai had not insisted on marrying, Mrs. Tantai's natal family was also from a wealthy family.
How could you be happy?
Compared with the reputation of Tang Dao, the leader of the anti-Japanese heroic regiment, compared with that of the handsome Tantai boy in his youth, it is a world away. What's more, Tang Dao did his work first.
The Tantai family is a big family. When the Battle of Songhu began, more than 200 members of the family went from Jiangnan to Jiangcheng.
After Tang Dao and Tantai Mingyue expressed their feelings to each other, Tang Dao asked Tantai Mingyue to tell his family that Jiangcheng was not safe and going south was not the best choice. They should go to the southwest.
Tantai Mingyue has always been convinced by Tang Dao's judgment, so she wrote to her parents who had already purchased property in Jiangcheng to move to the southwest. Is it possible that Tantai Mingyue could make the final decision on such a major family relocation?
Fortunately, after the old handsome man from Tantai came to the Sixings Group, he saw with his own eyes that his future son-in-law was invincible in all battles. No poems or songs were important. What was important was his invincible military talent. He immediately sent a telegram to ask the tribesmen to move to the southwest.
In the end, the Tantai family chose Rongcheng instead of Shancheng. This is why Tang Dao did not visit the Tantai family when he went home to visit relatives. Otherwise, he would have met his future mother-in-law long ago.
However, when Tang Dao and Tantai Mingyue set a wedding date and sent a telegram to the Tantai family, Mrs. Tantai replied by telegram saying that she would attend her daughter's wedding no matter what, otherwise she would definitely regret it for the rest of her life.
This is understandable. Since the war started, Mrs. Tantai has not seen her precious daughter for almost two years. As a result, her daughter turned out to be another man's wife. That's all. Even her husband has not been home for almost a year.
Would it be that woman who would be happy?
As soon as this telegram came, both father and daughter Tantai couldn't help but have a headache. As they were in the army, they knew that this was a war time. Not to mention that it would be dangerous for Mrs. Tantai to travel thousands of miles. If the battlefield fell into a stalemate, even
This is better than whether the New Year's wedding can be held on time or not.
Moreover, once they cross the Yellow River and enter a war zone, who can guarantee this safety? If they are attacked by the Japanese army, the father and daughter may not be able to escape in their lifetime.
As the son-in-law, Tang Dao made the final decision. If you want to come, then come!
However, the itinerary and escorts must be arranged by him.
Mrs. Tantai set out from Rongcheng, and the commander of the 22nd Group Army personally sent an order to move two infantry platoons through northern Sichuan to Hanzhong, and then arrived in Chang'an. There, except for a few servants of the Tantai family, the main escort personnel were sent by the 22nd Army.
The 28th Division of the Tenth Theater took over the responsibility for security in Shaanxi Province.
In fact, the Tantai family set out from Rongcheng in early December. Because Japanese planes intruded on Shaanxi Province from time to time during the Tongguan Battle, the convoy moved extremely slowly to ensure safety. By the time they arrived in Chang'an, it was already after New Year's Day.
But at that time, artillery was rumbling in Zhongtiao Mountain and Taihang Mountain, and the war was not yet clear. Tongguan had already ensured that the 28th Division Commander, who was safe, went to Chang'an to entertain the Tantai family and his party, so as to avoid Mrs. Tantai's anxiety.
After waiting for 20 days, the 28th Division, which was grateful for Tang Dao's help, not only sent a guard platoon to protect the safety of Tantai's family, but an army colonel from the 28th Division's Chang'an office often accompanied Tantai.
The family visited many places of interest in Chang'an.
During this period, I don’t know how bad Captain Tang was.
When the Battle of Zhongtiao Mountain came to an end, even the commander of the 10th War Zone sent an adjutant to see him off on his behalf, and he was sent to the Yellow River in a military truck. Then the cavalry platoon belonging to the guard battalion of the 17th Division, which had been waiting for a long time, took charge.
Take over.
After arriving at Zhongtiao Mountain, not to mention brigade commanders and division commanders, even the Tantai family, the general commander of the group army, saw two people. No one needs to say how high the reputation of Tang Tuanzuo is in the army. There are many people along the way.
The importance of the military has been fully reflected.
Anyway, this is definitely not the treatment that the famous Tantai family deserves. With the reputation of Lao Tantai, there will be receptions from various places, but the military will never be so laborious and mobilized.
With this premise foreshadowing, if Mrs. Tantai, Tang Dao's future mother-in-law, doesn't have a good enough impression of Tang Dao, then there really is no one else.
In addition, Tang Tuanzuo's appearance is not for nothing. Mrs. Tantai, who comes from a big family, may value talent more, but personal appearance and temperament are not dispensable.
Tang Tuanzuo was wearing a new military uniform today. The three golden triangles on the collar badge of the army colonel were polished by Tantai Mingyue, who knew his mother's temperament well, for a long time. In addition, the Tang sword was 1.8 meters tall.
No matter where you stand, the unique toughness and bravery of soldiers are vividly displayed.
Mrs. Tantai has lived in the south of the Yangtze River for a long time. She has never seen any kind of talented person. She has long been tired of seeing the kind of weak scholar-type pretty boy. Suddenly seeing a tough guy like Tang Dao, it naturally feels fresh. In addition, her daughter has already decided that she can marry everyone.
If you are going to get married, you may have a bad attitude towards your future son-in-law.
The cavalry platoon of the 17th Division was responsible for delivering the convoy to be protected to this mountain pass 60 miles away from Dakouzidong Town, and then said goodbye to Tang Dao and returned.
Tang Dao did not stay, and asked the accompanying Long Yan to deliver canned beef and fine grain for the horses to the cavalry platoon, and then said goodbye to them.
The white-haired general is one of the witnesses of his wedding. He will leave for here tomorrow. This cavalry platoon is probably also responsible for the task of reconnaissance along the way and will never stay here for long.
As for the Fourth Army Regiment who came with him this time, in addition to a platoon of the cavalry battalion, there was also a platoon of a mountain infantry company. In the area controlled by the Eighty Group Army, the defensive strength was sufficient.
If Tang Dao hadn't strongly refused, an infantry company from the 683rd Brigade would have arrived at this moment. But even so, Tang Dao actually knew that in order to ensure the safety of his mother-in-law and his party, Brigadier Cheng Da had already sent an infantry company from the 772nd Regiment.
The main infantry battalion went dozens of miles away to set up defenses along the way, and informed the regiment headquarters at any time in the form of signal trees. Otherwise, even Tang Dao would not know accurately that they would definitely arrive this morning.
This favor was not small, and Tang Dao had no choice but to accept it.
It just so happened that the four regiments eliminated 128 Czech light machine guns this time, plus 60 civilian Type 24 heavy machine guns and dozens of 82 guns brought by the new regiment, giving the 683rd Brigade and the 17th Division one point.
, these two elder brothers should be satisfied.
Tang Dao has already made plans. The MG42 is used as a squad light machine gun, and the MG34 is replaced with a tripod and a long barrel, turning it into a company and platoon-level heavy machine gun to support the vitality. The 12.7mm heavy machine gun is still assigned to the artillery company of the battalion, which can both be used for air defense.
It can also shoot horizontally for long-range firepower.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! In this way, the Four Lines Regiment can form three levels in terms of machine gun support firepower, which can be called a qualitative leap in the infantry firepower support.
The only drawback is that it takes a bit of bullets!
But after more than half a year of development, Teacher Xiao He's current military factory has developed into four major workshops, a department and a branch factory.
The workshops are a gunpowder workshop, a small arms manufacturing workshop, an ammunition workshop, and a machinery workshop. One is the equipment design department, and the branch is a steel plant!
The ammunition workshop alone can produce 400,000 rounds of various types of bullets and 3,000 small-caliber artillery shells in one month, which can basically meet the needs of the Four Row Regiment for a single operation.
This does not include the No. 1 weapons laboratory in Handan. Although Grunov is responsible for designing and testing the new weapons provided by Tang Dao there, there are also many weapons provided by Krupp.
Machine tools and raw materials, in line with the principle of not wasting productivity, can also produce some ammunition.
These outputs have basically been absorbed by the Eightyth Army, which is responsible for providing raw materials, and Handan is responsible for providing them with 150,000 rounds of machine rifle bullets and 1,000 rounds of small-caliber artillery shells per month.
Of course, for this batch of ammunition, the Eightyth Army has long used regular troops to provide transportation and escort for various materials transported from Handan to the Taihang Mountains. It is not purely free of charge.
The Four Elements Group alone does not have such a powerful force, which is why cooperation is important.
In order to avoid suspicion, the 80th Army Headquarters may not have had any big shots attend Tang Dao's wedding this time, but the 921st Division showed up with all its elites, giving Tang Dao plenty of face.
Tang Dao also made a decision to give them a bigger surprise when the time comes, in addition to the batch of light and heavy machine guns.
Not many people came to the Tantai family this time, except for Mrs. Tantai and Tantai Mingyue's younger brother Tantai Mingjing, the young man whom Tang Dao recognized at a glance.
The young man was a little shy, but he was quite generous to Tang Dao, his future brother-in-law, but his eyes full of admiration made Tang Dao murmur.
Don't be fooled by this kid and want to join the army, otherwise with the momentum of his future mother-in-law, his life will not be easy.
The other two people are Mrs. Tantai's personal maids, and the other four are the Tantai family's bodyguards. Each of them is wearing a shell gun and carrying a narrow knife on his back, and they look quite tough.
Not many people came, but there were a lot of things, enough to load a whole carriage. Although the things were all soft silks and satins commonly used in the Jiangnan area, some new cotton for household bedding, and even fine porcelain from Jingdezhen, it didn't look like a big family.
The gold and silver jewelry she received as a dowry could better reflect Mrs. Tantai’s care for her daughter.
I was afraid that my daughter would not live well in such a big mountain, so I wanted to move all the household utensils here.
Especially when she took out the red wedding dress, Tantai Mingyue's eyes turned red. It was knitted and sewn by Mrs. Tantai herself.
Since receiving the news about his daughter last year, Lao Tantai took the money from selling his property to help his daughter. However, Mrs. Tantai, who stayed at home, turned her longing for her daughter into this thread, even if it was because of the war.
The entire big family had to move to the distant southwest mountainous areas, and the entire year of 1938 was turbulent.
But the thread in the hands of the loving mother never stopped until she finally received the news that her daughter was getting married, and the red wedding dress made of mulberry silk was finally woven.
On the way back to Dakouzidong Town, the mother and daughter, who had not seen each other for a long time, were sitting in a carriage talking. Tang Dao's brother-in-law, who was not yet 17 years old, was determined not to ride in the carriage. Instead, he rode a war horse and followed Tang Dao.
Beside the knife.
"Brother-in-law, did you really kill five Japs with one against five?"
"Brother-in-law, can you tell me how you caught up with my eldest sister? Her temperament is not gentle at all. I don't think she can get married."
"Brother-in-law, tell me how you beat the Japanese! I also want to beat..."
Along the way, Tantai Mingjing asked Tang Dao so many questions that he felt dizzy.
Tang Tuanzuo finally discovered that the most terrifying thing about the Tantai family was not the future mother-in-law, but the curious baby-like brother-in-law.
In the end, the collapsed Tang Tuanzuo simply took off the 'Black Star Pistol' from his waist and threw it directly to the boy: "Do you want to shoot? Let Dayu teach you."
"Yes, yes, it has to be you, brother-in-law. No wonder my sister loves you so much." Tantai Mingjing, who finally achieved his wish, smiled broadly and flattered her like the endless flow of the Yellow River.
Heavy summer rain......
Let you, a hundred thousand whys, know first what a real soldier is! Seeing the deep meaning in the eyes of his frail peers and regimental commanders, the little bald man smiled brightly.
When he was stationed at the camp at night, he went to shoot whenever he wanted to rest. During the day, he was still very interested in emptying 10 magazines. His wrists were swollen like steamed buns. Under the massage of Tang Dao, the boy's miserable howl was unbearable.
Howling like a wolf in the mountains.
The Black Star pistol is powerful enough, and the recoil is amazing. Not to mention a young melon like Tantai Mingjing, even an experienced gunman rarely shoots so many bullets in a day.
Tantai Mingyue looked down upon Tang Dao, but Mrs. Tantai became more and more pleased with her son-in-law.
A woman who has experienced the world for nearly fifty years would not know that Tang Dao is using facts to tell young people who are not familiar with the world that war is much crueler than you think. It is also an opportunity to dispel some of the unrealistic ideas of young people.
impulse.
