Chapter 620 The flag in front of the tombstone (3rd monthly ticket)
As Liu Lang slowly spoke in the penetrating voice of gold and stone, some people in the crowd could no longer suppress their grief and began to sob.
"They used their own sacrifices to wash away the shame that had been branded on them. I ordered the 206 people from the death-defying company to remove the 160 people who died in the battle and leave all the remaining officers and soldiers to come out." Liu Lang suddenly raised his voice and shouted.
road.
"Yes." Led by Zhou Shiyu, who had recovered from his injuries, twenty-eight officers and soldiers with sound hands and feet and seventeen people with disabilities stood up from the queue and walked to the front of the team to form two lines.
"I declare that from today on, you are free. You can go wherever you want. The officers and soldiers who have died in battle will be fully compensated according to the independent regiment pension. The same is true for you. All subsidies are the same as other officers and soldiers.
After receiving it, put on your medal, take your relatives to wherever you want, and live the life of an ordinary person." Liu Lang said.
The company that dared to die, from Zhou Shiyu down, were all dumbfounded.
None of them expected that Liu Lang would say this, although for most of them, this was once their dream. After serving as a soldier and making meritorious service, they could leave.
However, when this dream came, they actually felt a sense of fear, like a child about to be abandoned.
Zhou Shiyu's face paled slightly, but he did not ask Liu Lang for anything. Instead, he slowly turned his head and faced the remaining forty-five officers and soldiers of his death-defying company.
"Brothers, the commander of the regiment has fulfilled his promise. This is what I told you before you joined the company. As long as you have made great achievements, you can forget about it and leave the independent regiment. Now, those who are willing to leave,
Take a step forward."
For a while, no one moved.
Zhou Shiyu's face remained calm as he continued to shout loudly: "No one will regard you as cowards. The medals on your chests don't mean anything, but the gunshot wounds on our bodies are the best proof. Big Bear, you have no
Arms, and you, pig intestines, your baby is missing a leg, why are you still here? Look over there, your wife and son are waiting for you. Now, I order those who want to leave, to
Take one step forward."
A dark and stocky soldier who was named by Zhou Shiyu stepped out with a face full of grief and anger, his eyes were red, and he roared: "Sir, I don't accept it, and I won't leave."
"What are you dissatisfied with? Isn't this your biggest wish when Daxiong joined the army? What's wrong with having a wife and children on the hot bed? Your disability allowance is enough for you to live a good life for a few years, and the factory that Huashang Group is about to establish can also give it to you.
Providing you with a good job will definitely ensure that your family will have no worries about food and clothing in Sichuan." Zhou Shiyu also shouted sternly.
"Yes, that's what I thought, but I can't leave now. Sir, look behind you. The 160 brothers from our death-defying company are lying there, watching us. Especially the old man
Zhao, he must be looking at me somewhere. When the cannonball flew over, if he hadn't pushed me, I might not have lost an arm, but Old Zhao..." the soldier said.
Unable to hide her sadness, she choked up, "I lost an arm, but I can still help take care of the warehouse, feed the cows and horses, and maintain your guns. There is still a lot of work I can do, and I can still find time to look at it."
Look at the brothers lying here, I would rather not have those allowances, I just want to stay in the death squad."
"Sir, we are not leaving." The remaining soldiers stepped forward collectively, but they expressed the completely opposite meaning to Zhou Shiyu's order.
Zhou Shiyu's unchanging expression finally changed, tears welled up in his eyes, but with a smile, he suddenly turned back to look at Liu Lang, "Sir, have you seen this? This is the answer of all the members of my death-defying company,
We will never leave, we are determined to be the soldiers of this death-defying company."
"No, I will never dare to die again." Liu Lang shook his head firmly.
Zhou Shiyu's face suddenly turned pale.
Even Ye Qisun on one side couldn't bear to see this situation. In his opinion, these are extremely outstanding soldiers, and they should not enjoy such treatment after returning from victory. Especially after the battle in Gushan, even those who dared to die
The name resounds throughout the land of China. Such a heroic army should not be dismissed like this. Even though they were once bandits, they have washed away the sins they have committed with sacrifice and victory.
The whole place was slightly agitated. Apparently, many people had the same idea as Comrade Ye.
"From now on, you are called the death camp." Liu Lang said slowly, "Lieutenant Colonel Liang, where is the flag of the death camp?"
Liang Wenzhong came out of the queue solemnly, holding a bright red flag embroidered with gold and walking over in goose-step.
Taking the flag from Liang Wenzhong and placing it on the flagpole, Liu Lang solemnly held the flag with both hands and handed it to Zhou Shiyu, who was obviously still a little confused, "Battle Commander Zhou, take the flag."
Zhou Shiyu took over the military flag belonging to his team with trembling hands, faced the forty-five officers and soldiers of the death-defying company who were extremely surprised, and waved it into the wind. On the bright red military flag, the three golden characters of "Death Battalion" glowed in the sunset.
Shining brightly in the afterglow.
Although the more than three thousand officers and soldiers standing behind them still stood upright, the envious glint in their eyes still revealed that their hearts were not as calm as they appeared.
This is the first time the independent regiment has been awarded the military flag and the first time it has been given orders to a battalion-level unit. This is definitely a huge honor.
However, envy is envy, but no one is dissatisfied. The tragic battle in Gushan is indeed one of Luo Wenyu's most tragic battles. If it were not for the move of self-destructing the tunnel and putting him to death and resurrecting, the dare-to-die company would really be like
The name of their company is exactly the same. They paid a 70% battle fatality rate, not only in exchange for the total destruction of one and a half brigade and two fighter planes of the Japanese invaders, but more importantly, they allowed the Japanese invaders to
For the first time, we lost confidence in defeating the independent group.
It can be said that it was the Battle of Gushan that completely destroyed the pride of the Eighth Division.
They have the qualifications to receive this honor.
"Cheng Yuanshan, attack the enemy's heavy artillery brigade headquarters at night." Liu Lang continued to roar.
Cheng Yuanshan took the remaining twenty-eight people out that night and quickly stood up in front of Liu Lang.
"Cheng Yuanshan led 300 men to attack the enemy's heavy artillery brigade at night. 268 people were killed on the spot, and 5 died due to injuries after the war. The battle fatality rate was the highest in our army. He wiped out nearly a thousand people in the enemy's heavy artillery brigade and blew up ten heavy artillery pieces.
, captured thirteen mountain artillery pieces, and the record achieved is also the best in our army." Liu Lang's voice was not loud, but he carried it through the whole audience.
Then, Liu Lang reached out and took the military flag that Tang Yongming had sent him in goose-stepping. He held the flag with both hands and handed it to Cheng Yuanshan. He said word by word: "Today, the Independent Regiment Headquarters awards Cheng Yuanshan the "Bayoto Battalion" military flag and orders you to establish a Bayonet Battalion.
, recast the glory of that night.”
"Yes." Cheng Yuanshan's eyes sparkled as he took the military flag.
Unfurling the blood-red military flag in front of his only 20 or so subordinates, Cheng Yuanshan shouted in a hissing voice: "Brothers, your heroes are not far away. Watch my bayonet battalion kill the Japanese for you!"
The whole army was in awe, and at the same time, they were looking forward to it. The two troops who were transferred from company to battalion had both made achievements in the Battle of the Great Wall that shocked them all. No one was dissatisfied, but they didn't know which troops would be awarded this third flag.
force.
They all clearly saw Lieutenant Colonel Chi Dakui solemnly taking out a military flag and waiting for Liu Lang to issue a military order.
