Chapter 326 The Second Rise of the Deputy Head
Yuan Shushan was very annoyed during this period.
The county magistrate's dispute was defeated, and the war zone agreed to the National Salvation Army to buy food from the Eighth Route Army, which was much beyond their expectations, and ended up losing all face.
He had a premonition that the soon-to-be-department of the food transactions that the National Salvation Army and the Eighth Route Army were definitely not as simple as it seems.
For more than ten days, he has been watching this matter. Even if he picks the bones in the eggs, he has to find two problems and hit Zhou Cheng's arrogance.
But things went against my wishes. The team leader and his team arranged it so seamlessly that they could not find any fault no matter how they watched it.
Although the value of the food and livestock earned by the National Salvation Army is far lower than the value of the weapons and ammunition sold, the regiment headquarters will be attacked on the grounds that the weapons and ammunition will be destroyed.
参与交易的部队要么是警卫连,要么是四连,那都是周成一手带出来的部队,自己的一根针都别想插进去,每次去了解情况,他们报告内容的和团部通报的情况全都一模一样,一丁点有价值的东西都查不出来.
After two or three investigations failed, Yuan Shushan became numb and later heard that weapons and ammunition were attacked. He was too lazy to investigate and let it go, and the regiment headquarters could do whatever they said.
Yuan Shushan was even more annoyed in the past two days than before.
Because the National Salvation Army not only had rumors that were not good for themselves, but the Third Battalion formed by himself also began to appear in some rumors: Some said they were treacherous, some said that their people were in Cao's camp and their hearts were in Han, and they did not take the pacification of the National Salvation Army in their hearts...
The Third Battalion is the fundamental reason why it continues to gain a foothold in the National Salvation Army, and there must be no problems.
So he has been guarding the Third Battalion to put out the fire in the past two days, forcing anyone to discuss topics that are not good for him.
The result was counterproductive. The more he was not allowed to discuss, the more the soldiers below felt that the rumors were correct about him, otherwise why did he rush to the Third Battalion to put out the fire?
The National Salvation Army emphasizes equality between officers and soldiers, and as long as the soldiers do not violate discipline, he will be unable to punish them.
所以面对这些越压越疯狂的流言蜚语,他急得头发都白了,但却没有任何办法,只能一再要求三营连排长管好自己的部下,不要公开讨论长官.
Of course, these rumors also alerted Yuan Shushan a lot.
Whether it is said that you are stingy or that you are in Cao's camp and have a heart in Han, there is factual basis.
For the sake of his own benefit, he repeatedly asked the regiment headquarters to appoint a traitor as the county magistrate of Xiyang, completely disregarding the overall interests of the national rescue army.
In order to get the war zone to punish Zhou Cheng, he took away his position as the commander and gave up his position to himself, completely disregarding the lives and deaths of nearly 100,000 soldiers and civilians in Xiyang, preventing the National Rescue Army from purchasing food from the Eighth Route Army, and also turning black and white against Zhou Cheng.
Anyone who chooses one is a strong evidence of his own trash.
If you really want to argue with everyone, you will definitely lose.
After recalling the stupid things he had done again, Yuan Shushan decided to restrain himself in the future and not show off his strength so fiercely, opposing it for the sake of opposition...
"Report..." The voice of the regiment commander suddenly rang at the door.
"Come in!" Yuan Shushan quickly put away his inner thoughts and ordered in a deep voice.
The messenger reported as soon as he came in: "Deputy Commander Yuan, the regiment commander notified you to go to the regiment headquarters immediately, there is an emergency!"
Yuan Shushan walked into the command center with a complicated mood, and then saw Zhou Cheng and Tang Yufeng gathering together to discuss something, with a strong smile on their faces, obviously something good happened.
Zhou Cheng greeted as soon as he saw Yuan Shushan, looking like two friends who had not met for a long time: "Deputy Commander Yuan Come in quickly! Deputy Commander Tang just brought back good news. Several local armed forces in the northeast direction of Pacifying the Northeast have contacted us and want to join the National Salvation Army."
"I thought about it. The National Salvation Army has now controlled the entire Xiyang and half of the pacification, and the area of the defense zone has increased greatly. The existing troops are no longer able to meet the needs and must be expanded."
"Since there are troops who have taken the initiative to join the National Salvation Army, we will take the opportunity to recruit them and form the Fourth Battalion of the National Salvation Army."
Tang Yufeng then introduced: "These local armed forces are spontaneously organized by the people. The Japanese are standing at the rear of their own more and more importance, which makes their situation increasingly difficult."
"Either join our National Salvation Army, or join the Eighth Route Army, or disband or surrender to the Japanese."
"They will definitely not choose the next two paths. After all, they are all people who have killed the Japanese. Even if the troops are disbanded, the Japanese will not easily do so."
"Compared with the Eighth Route Army, the conditions for our National Salvation Army are much better. After joining us, one gun can be guaranteed, so they took the initiative to send people to contact us, hoping that our National Salvation Army can recruit them!"
"There are four armed forces in these places. The teams operating in Nanyu Town are the strongest, with more than 200 guns and light machine guns. The other three teams have a little less force, all of which only have seventy or eighty guns. If they all add up, they are about 450 people."
"We will add some new recruits to enter, and we can get a full main battalion!"
Yuan Shushan did not express his opinion easily. He knew nothing now. It was impossible for him to make a decision just by a few words from the regiment commander and Deputy Register Tang.
Zhou Cheng continued to speak: "I plan to adapt them into the Fourth Battalion of the National Salvation Army. In order to fully grasp these local troops, let them integrate into the National Salvation Army as soon as possible, and promote the captain of the Nanyu Town guerrillas to be the deputy commander of our National Salvation Army. The Nanyu Town guerrillas are compressed into a company and several direct troops, and give them a deputy battalion commander, a company commander, two deputy company commanders, and two direct platoon commanders. The remaining three guerrillas are compressed into two companies, giving them a position of two company commanders and four deputy company commanders."
"In addition, in order to allow these local armed forces to integrate into the National Salvation Army as soon as possible, I want Deputy Commander Yuan to reorganize them, temporarily act as battalion commander of the Fourth Battalion, give them half a month to overdo it, and then the regiment headquarters will decide the candidate for battalion commander of the Fourth Battalion."
"The fourth battalion leader is temporarily resuming half a month..." As soon as he heard these words, Yuan Shushan became energetic.
One of the important reasons why I can control most of the troops of the Third Battalion is that I have been the battalion commander of the Third Battalion for a period of time. Many officers of the Third Battalion were promoted by themselves and were their confidants.
If I could become the commander of the Fourth Battalion, I would definitely be able to promote a few people who would use it for my own use.
Although it can only be used for half a month and cannot control the entire fourth battalion, as long as one company can control it, it will be a huge victory.
Moreover, now he can also send a positive signal to the entire regiment: although he did a lot of mistakes some time ago, his status in the regiment has not declined. He can not only continue to serve as deputy regiment commander, but also serve as the battalion commander in a powerful case when everyone is not optimistic about it, breaking the rumors that he will be excluded by the regiment commander from the National Salvation Army.
Yuan Shushan became more and more excited the more he thought about it, but he did not agree immediately.
There is no free lunch in the world. The leader of the group knows his current situation, so it is not an exaggeration to describe it as the four words "struggle".
As an opponent, normal people will rush up and step on it. It is best to kill the opponent completely while you are sick.
What Zhou Cheng is doing now is undoubtedly to pull himself in his most desperate moments, giving himself the opportunity to rise again.
Wouldn't he be worried that he would stab the knife in the back again and threaten his position in the National Salvation Army?
So if I want to successfully become the battalion commander of the Fourth Battalion, I will definitely have to pay some price.
Before Zhou Cheng offered a price, he could not bite the bait he had presented, otherwise he would lose his wife and his troops like the previous defeat.
Yuan Shushan took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and asked in response to Zhou Cheng's gaze: "Captain, do you want to transfer the captain of the Nanyu Town guerrilla team to the regiment headquarters to be a deputy regiment commander without real power, so that the newly established Fourth Battalion lost command and fell into chaos, and then defeated one by one to completely grasp the Fourth Battalion?"
Zhou Cheng did not deny it, looking at Yuan Shushan and said, "Promoting the captain of the Nanyu Town guerrillas as the deputy regiment commander requires the appointment of the war zone, and my relationship with the war zone is not good. If I just sent a telegram, the war zone will definitely not approve it, so the appointment of the deputy regiment commander still requires the help of Deputy regiment commander."
"We jointly sent a telegram to the war zone. Only by transferring the captain of the Nanyu Town guerrillas from the fourth battalion can we have the opportunity to defeat each one and completely control this force."
Yuan Shushan figured it out.
This is indeed a transaction. I helped the regiment commander to win the position of deputy regiment commander and transferred the captain of the Nanyu Town guerrillas from the Fourth Battalion. The regiment commander made him the battalion commander of the Fourth Battalion for half a month and saved himself.
As for how many people I can win over in the Fourth Battalion in the past half month, it depends entirely on my ability.
Half a month later, the regiment headquarters appointed a new battalion commander of the Fourth Battalion, and the remaining troops of the Fourth Battalion had nothing to do with him.
Yuan Shushan's analysis was very correct, and Zhou Cheng did talk to him about this matter with the purpose of a transaction.
But there is one thing Yuan Shushan doesn't know.
The local armed forces that the National Salvation Army were to be incorporated were guerrillas formed and developed by the Eighth Route Army.
Although it is not the main force of the Eighth Route Army, there are still a large number of party members in it.
Almost all cadres above the ranks joined the party, and the possibility of Yuan Shushan successfully winning over them was almost zero.
So his dream is destined to fail, even if he was the battalion commander of the Fourth Battalion for two months, it would be the result.
With the idea of winning over an infantry company for half a month, Yuan Shushan decisively agreed to Zhou Cheng's proposal: "Since both the regiment commander and the deputy regiment commander Tang agreed to incorporate these local armed forces, I have no objection."
"You can just draw a telegram for the war zone and add my name."
After saying this, Yuan Shushan made another decision in his heart: he would draft a secret message for the war zone after he returned to the room, and he would promote the fact that the captain of the Nanyu Town guerrillas would be the deputy commander.
Because only by transferring him from the Fourth Battalion and becoming the deputy regiment commander can I have the opportunity to act as the Battalion Commander of the Fourth Battalion!
