"Lei Xiong, the former major and deputy battalion commander of the Sixing Battalion of the 88th Division, was promoted to lieutenant colonel and appointed as the first deputy battalion commander of the independent battalion directly under the 43rd Army;
Guo Shouzhi, former major and battalion commander of the 664th Regiment of the 67th Army, Lieutenant Colonel Jin, was appointed as the second deputy battalion commander of the independent battalion directly under the 43rd Army;
Former 43rd Army Major and Battalion Commander Liu Zhenshan, Lieutenant Colonel Jin, due to his injury, will not be assigned to his duties for the time being. When he recovers from his injury, he will be appointed by the 43rd Army Military Headquarters;
Zhuang Shisan, the former major and battalion commander of the Songjiang Security Regiment, was promoted to lieutenant colonel and appointed as the chief of staff of the independent battalion directly under the 43rd Army;"
Tang Dao paused slightly after reading the military order in his hand.
The faces of the two rows of standing officers remained unchanged, but their eyes were a little confused.
Liu Zhenshan, the second deputy battalion commander of the garrison battalion, was injured in a brutal street fight with the Japanese army in Songjiang. The Sichuan Army major who was extremely afraid of mothers-in-law was not a rake when fighting. He led the second company, which was dominated by the Sichuan Army, to fight the entire
The most impressive achievement of the security battalion.
However, the price paid was also huge. The Second Company suffered a sharp decline of 30% in that battle. Even he, the deputy battalion commander and commander of the Second Company, lost the good luck of getting only burns on his buttocks when being bombed. The Japanese army hit him with a melon-style grenade.
Knocked him down.
A melon-style grenade was thrown at the feet of his guard. The deputy battalion commander, who was afraid of death, almost didn't even think about it and kicked it. Unfortunately, the delayed-explosion grenade exploded in mid-air, and the flying shrapnel knocked him
His lower abdomen and legs were torn and bloody.
At that time, everyone thought he was dead, but it turned out that his life was astonishingly tough. Not to mention that the terrible shrapnel did not damage the aorta, and he managed to survive on the simple operating table. But it is estimated that no two or three months of training can be absolutely perfect.
I can't go to the battlefield anymore.
It is also a reality that he will no longer serve in the independent battalion and is not surprising.
Although Zhuang Shisan's position as battalion chief of staff is unprecedented in the military, the chief officer of an independent battalion is a colonel, and his deputy positions are all lieutenant colonels. The rank is two levels higher than that of an ordinary infantry battalion, and its strength is nearly two ordinary infantry battalions.
It makes sense to impose a chief of staff staff, and it's not particularly strange.
What made the standing officers wonder was why the order of the supreme commander of the Jiashan Frontline Command did not issue the appointment of Tang Dao as the chief officer.
"Order from the Commander-in-Chief of the Songhu War Zone!" Tang Dao took out another military order and shouted softly!
"Former Lieutenant Colonel Tang Dao and Colonel Jin of the Sixing Battalion of the 88th Division were appointed as the First Deputy Director of the Staff Department of the Jiashan Frontline Command, the Battalion Commander of the Independent Battalion directly under the 43rd Army Headquarters of the National Revolutionary Army, and the Army War Supervisor of the Jiashan Defense Line
!The independent battalion under his command is the supervising team of the entire army!"
Upon hearing the final appointment of chief officers, all the officers' expressions softened. Only a few people, including Lei Xiong and Guo Shouzhi, had strange expressions in their eyes.
It turned out that Tang Dao was already a colonel, and his appointment required the personal order of the commander at the theater level. He also served as the first deputy director of the headquarters staff department. This authority was far greater than that of a battalion commander, even if he was the commander of an independent battalion directly under the military headquarters.
.
As for the war supervisor, most officers actively ignored it. In their view, this was more of a false position.
During the Songjiang Defense War, Tang Dao was also appointed as the War Supervisor by the two bosses of the headquarters. As a result, Tang Dao rushed directly to the front line of Cangcheng. As a War Supervisor, he had no effect at all.
However, perhaps the Songjiang defenders were driven to death by the Japanese. Very few of them disobeyed military orders and took the initiative to retreat. Even if they did, they were personally executed by the commanders of each brigade and regiment who were supervising the battle on the spot.
However, Lei Xiong, who had been in the Royal Forest Army for a long time, and Guo Shouzhi, the ace infantry regiment of the 67th Army, did not think so.
In Songjiang, Tang Dao, the war supervisor, was appointed by Wu and Guo. Tang Dao could make the decision himself if he wanted to execute deserters of lieutenant-level officers and below, but if he was an officer above the school level, he did not have this power.
But now, this war supervisor was personally appointed by the Songhu Theater Command, so the meaning is completely different.
There is no doubt that Tang Dao's authority is extremely great. As long as there is enough evidence to prove that he left the position without permission and became a deserter, even if he is a colonel, lieutenant colonel or major, Tang Dao's execution of him will be in accordance with wartime military law.
Of course, with this power, Tang Dao cannot act arbitrarily. The school officials are all covered by major generals and lieutenant generals.
But with this name, Tang Dao can definitely become the top group of school officers, and the colonel commanders of the main infantry regiment must give him enough respect.
However, this is not important. What is important is, what does the theater headquarters want to do by giving Tang Dao such a "Shang Fang Sword" so suddenly?
Is there any other intention in this?
Of course Tang Dao knew it in his heart.
From the moment he got the military order, he knew that what seemed like a dessert was actually just a dose of poison.
This appointment was just an artificial gap created by the theater headquarters between him and Wu and Guo.
The supervising team looks majestic and can directly execute deserters, which makes people frightened, but in fact it is just an offending job. Even if he made a mistake, if you kill someone's subordinates, who can be happy with you?
Moreover, without the permission of the boss, Tang Dao was assigned such an important war supervisor, not only to tell those few people that Tang Dao is from our 88th Division, and we have great trust in him.
Even if Wu and Guo had great trust in him, they would still be a little wary of Tang Dao because of this outrageous military order!
As long as this is done, the purpose of the theater headquarters will be achieved.
To put it bluntly, this is also a response to some people's dissatisfaction with the three army lieutenant generals at the Jiashan Defense Line Command, who were dissatisfied with them forcibly taking the Sixing Camp away from the Royal Forest Army.
Fortunately, they underestimated Tang Dao.
"Please call the two officers back and ask the theater headquarters whether as long as our army is on the battlefield, I, Tang Dao, will be the battlefield supervisor. If so, I will be the battlefield supervisor. If not, please ask them to send someone else here."
This is how Tang Dao replied to Lieutenant General Wu who tested him with military orders.
"Haha, then why ask again? The place where our army is located is a battlefield. Since they have given you such a big hat, you can wear it without worry." Lieutenant General Wu is such a smart person. With a slight twist of his mind,
He understood what Tang Dao meant and laughed out loud immediately.
Of course, what Tang Dao means is that he wants to supervise not only the three infantry divisions currently on the Jiashan front line, but all the Chinese troops on this line.
Because the Jiashan defense line is destined to be unable to hold for a long time and must retreat. There will inevitably be other troops on the way back. If Tang Dao still has the ability to supervise the battle, it can naturally form a deterrent effect against them.
How many of the war supervisors who were appointed by the commander of the theater personally issued military orders and dared to say so lightly? Including those major generals and lieutenant generals, even if they couldn't handle you at that time, Tang Dao sent a message to the theater headquarters.
Not many people can bear the burden of settling accounts after the fall.
Since Tang Dao said this, he is nothing more than telling this lieutenant general that I am a 'dao' issued by the headquarters, but the knife can be held in your hands. I have such a help for nothing, Lieutenant General Wu, of course
Gotta laugh.
This may be the most typical of the legends of ‘stealing the chicken but losing the rice’!
Naturally, Tang Dao couldn't explain these deep-seated reasons to his two deputies at such a meeting, so he took out another piece of paper: "Order from the Commander of the 43rd Army of the National Revolutionary Army!"
The officers looked solemn.
The independent battalion is directly under the military headquarters of the 43rd Army. Tang Dao and several deputy battalion-level officers are of high rank and are appointed by the theater headquarters and frontline headquarters to show their importance. The appointments of these middle-level officers can be made by the military headquarters Guo.
Appointed personally.
"Appointment: Major Peng Chong is appointed as the commander of the Special Agent Company of the Independent Battalion; Major Leng Feng is appointed as the commander of the First Infantry Company of the Independent Battalion; Lieutenant Qian Dazhu is appointed as the commander of the Second Infantry Company of the Independent Battalion; Captain Li Jijin is appointed as the commander of the Third Infantry Company of the Independent Battalion;
Lieutenant Zhao Daqiang is appointed as the commander of the Fourth Infantry Company of the Independent Battalion; Captain Cheng Tieshou is appointed as the commander of the independent battalion’s air defense fire support company; Major Pang Panghai is appointed as the commander of the artillery company of the independent battalion; Captain Zhao Chengxi is appointed as the commander of the supply company; Captain Zhu Heicheng is appointed as the deputy company commander of the supply company;
Second Lieutenant Lu Sanjiang is appointed as the deputy company commander of the special agent company and leader of the cavalry platoon; Second Lieutenant Gu Xishui is appointed as the captain of the independent battalion’s special operations team; Second Lieutenant Niu Er is appointed as the deputy captain of the independent battalion’s special operations team.”
A long list of lieutenant appointments was read out from Tang Dao's mouth.
Many officers cast envious glances at Qian Dazhu, Lu Sanjiang, and Gu Xishui.
They thought that they would be promoted and reused, but no one expected that Tang Dao would reuse these three people so much.
