The meeting ended and everyone went back to their rooms to rest.
Wang Husheng and Liu Mei also returned to the room together.
I forgot to mention that Wang Husheng and Liu Mei got married secretly at the Chinachem Hotel with special approval from the organization shortly after Xu Rui made a big fuss at Paramount, so they were already a legitimate couple, but it was Xu Rui and Sai Hongfu's daughter.
They all gave birth, even Jiang Nan was pregnant, but she still had no plans to get married.
After returning to the room, Wang Husheng asked Liu Mei to take a bath first, and Liu Mei went to take a bath first.
However, when Liu Mei came out of the bathroom after taking a bath, she found that Wang Husheng was still sitting at the desk writing furiously. He had neither changed clothes nor had any intention of sleeping. He seemed to be preparing to burn the midnight oil.
Liu Mei walked to the desk, pressed against Wang Husheng from behind, stretched out her hands to support Wang Husheng's head, leaned it gently against her chest, and then squeezed and asked softly: "Husheng, why don't you still?"
sleep?"
"No, I still have something to do." Wang Husheng sighed comfortably, and then said, "It's something Lao Xu explained."
"Commander?" Liu Mei pursed her lips slightly and whispered, "What else did he tell you in the telegram?"
Wang Husheng hummed softly and said, "There was something I didn't say just now. Lao Xu asked me to prepare a speech for tomorrow."
"Speech?" Liu Mei asked in surprise, "What speech?"
Wang Husheng said: "The speech of the first plenary meeting of our Songhu Military Division."
"Is our Songhu Military Division going to hold its first plenary meeting?" Liu Mei's little mouth opened slightly, and then she said, "But it really should be held."
(Dividing line)
After a speechless night, Xu Rui returned to Shanghai early the next morning.
After returning to Shanghai, Xu Rui immediately summoned the senior officials of the Songhu Military Division to hold an emergency meeting.
At this meeting, not only Wang Husheng, Liu Mei, Jiang Nan, Wu Han, Chen Baixi, Liu Yiming and other Broadway Building executives attended, but also Xie Yuan, Yang Rui, Ye Ming, Wu Liang, Ding Wenbao, Shi Changqing, Qin Gang, Bi Xiancheng and other patrol battalion executives.
They also came to the Broadway Building secretly. In addition, there was Leng Tiefeng who had just arrived in Shanghai.
This is also the first real plenary meeting of the Songhu Military Division.
The meeting was chaired by Wang Husheng. Wang Husheng first introduced the senior executives of the Broadway Building and the patrol camp, and then said: "Actually, Lao Xu has long wanted to hold a plenary meeting of our Songhu Military Division, but there has never been a chance. It is not the right time.
It’s not mature yet, but time doesn’t allow it, so it’s been postponed until today.”
After a pause, Wang Husheng continued: "But today, we finally got together. This meeting can be regarded as the first plenary meeting of our Songhu Military Division since its establishment. Let me talk about the main topics first.
The first item of the meeting was to announce the appointment order of the Military Party Committee.”
Everyone present immediately sat upright.
Wang Husheng cleared his throat and continued: "After study and decision by the New Fourth Army Party Committee, Comrade Xu Rui was appointed as the commander of the Songhu Military Division; Comrade Wang Husheng was appointed as the political commissar of the Songhu Military Division; Comrade Leng Tiefeng was appointed as the deputy commander of the Songhu Military Division
He is also the captain of the Langya Special Warfare Brigade; Comrade Liu Mei is the director of the Political Department and Logistics Director of the Songhu Military Division; Comrade Jiang Nan is the deputy director of the Political Department and the director of the Intelligence Division of the Songhu Military Division."
Everyone applauded enthusiastically, and then their ears perked up.
Even Xie Yuan couldn't help but prick up his ears, because he knew that next, Wang Husheng, as the political commissar of the military division, would announce the army establishment of the Songhu Military Division and the candidates for military chief officers. After more than a year in Gujun Camp,
After being detained, Xie Yuan originally thought that he could look at everything in the world calmly, but when things came to pass, he found that he still couldn't calm down.
Sure enough, Wang Husheng paused for a moment, and then continued to read: "Now I will announce the troop establishment of our Songhu Military Division and the candidates for military chief officers. According to the spirit of the New Fourth Army Party Committee and combined with the actual situation of Songhu, our Songhu
The troops in the military division will be organized into two brigades."
"The first brigade, the brigade commander is Comrade Xie Yuan, and the deputy brigade commander is Comrade Yang Rui."
"The first brigade has three infantry regiments, one reconnaissance battalion and one artillery battalion. The commander of the first regiment is Shi Changqing, the commander of the second regiment is Wu Liang, the commander of the third regiment is Ding Wenbao, the commander of the reconnaissance battalion is Qin Gang, and the commander of the artillery battalion is Bi Xiancheng
.”
"In accordance with the spirit of the instructions of the New Fourth Army Party Committee, political cadres will not be assigned to the units of the First Brigade for the time being."
"The commander of the second brigade, Comrade Xu Rui, concurrently serves as the commander, Comrade Leng Tiefeng serves as the deputy brigade commander, and I serve as the political commissar. The first brigade also has three infantry regiments, one reconnaissance battalion, one artillery battalion, and three
The infantry regiment commanders are Comrade Chen Baixi, Liu Yiming and Wu Han respectively, the reconnaissance battalion commander is Comrade Liu Ming, and the artillery battalion commander is Comrade Ren Xu."
"As for the political commissars of each regiment of the Second Brigade, the instructors of the subordinate battalions and the instructors of each company, the New Fourth Army military headquarters will send a group of comrades to serve in the near future."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a burst of whispers in the conference room.
After a moment, Xie Yuan raised his hand and said: "Commander, political commissar, I have something to say."
Wang Husheng glanced at Xu Rui and said, "If Brigadier Xie has anything to say, just say it."
"Why don't we assign a political commissar, instructor and instructor to our first brigade?" Xie Yuan said, "Do the commander and political commissar don't trust us?"
"This..." Wang Husheng didn't know what to say.
Xu Rui said bluntly: "The reason is very simple, I'm afraid you guys will get upset."
"Feeling?" Xie Yuan frowned and said, "Commander, I don't understand what you mean."
Yang Rui also said: "Yes, Commander, since we have promised you back then, we will never break our promises. Now that we are already an army of the Communist Party, we should look like a Communist army. The Communist Party's
How can the army not have regiment and brigade political commissars, battalion instructors and company instructors?"
Xu Rui asked: "Are you sure you want political commissars, instructors and instructors?"
Xie Yuan asked Xu Rui: "Is it possible to do without political commissars, instructors and instructors?"
"Of course this is not possible." Xu Rui shook his head and said, "But I originally planned to give you some time to adapt."
"That's not necessary." Xie Yuan said flatly, "We are not even afraid of death, so why are we afraid that we will not be able to adapt to this?"
"Okay." Xu Rui immediately waved his hand and said in a deep voice, "Since you have said this, I will not say anything more. I will immediately submit a request to the higher-level party organization and let the superiors
The party organization will assign a brigade political commissar and three regiment political commissars to your first brigade. As for the battalion instructors and company instructors below, they will be selected from the party members of the original Songhu detachment."
After a pause, Xu Rui continued: "But let me say something ugly first. After the political commissar of the regiment, the battalion instructor, and the company instructor arrive, you must give them enough respect and fully cooperate with them to do their jobs.
If I find out that you are secretly obstructing the work of political cadres, I will never be polite to you."
"This is not mentioned." Xie Yuan said simply, "If we secretly obstruct the work of political cadres, we will be punished as a violation of military law. If we should withdraw, we will withdraw, if we should arrest, we will arrest, and if we should kill, don't be polite!"
"Okay, let's move on to the next topic." Xu Rui said in a deep voice, "Prepare for war!"
After a slight pause, Xu Rui added: "According to reliable intelligence, the news that the patrol battalion secretly accepted the leadership of our party has been leaked, and the news that I am the commander of the patrol battalion has also been leaked. In order to deal with me and the patrol battalion, Japan
Emperor Hirohito has mobilized the 7th Division in Hokkaido and the 20th Division in Korea."
Upon hearing this, many cadres present at the meeting immediately changed their expressions.
Especially the cadres of the first brigade, their expressions suddenly became very embarrassed.
"The Seventh Division and the Twentieth Division are both permanent divisions!"
"With the addition of the Ninth Division, there are three permanent divisions!"
"One permanent division has 25,000 men, and three permanent divisions has 75,000 men!"
"Our Songhu Army is divided into two brigades, with only 12,000 troops at full strength. This means that the strength of the little devils is more than six times that of ours! How to fight this battle?"
"This is not the worst, don't forget this is Shanghai!"
"Yes, this is Shanghai. The Japs also have a navy. The Japs' navy is the most terrifying. In the Battle of Songhu, we have suffered enough from the Japs' navy. The Japs' navy's cannons have a caliber of twenty or three.
Ten millimeters, those large-caliber artillery shells can bring down a building with one shot, and a battery will be gone in the blink of an eye."
"At the beginning, the Central Military Academy Teaching Corps was severely beaten by the Japanese navy's naval guns. There were more than 15,000 people in the three regiments. In the end, they passed through the Japanese naval gun blockade alive, and only less than a thousand people were left to reach the Wusong battlefield.
The road from Yangshu to Wusong was covered with the corpses of officers and soldiers of the Central Military Academy Teaching Corps. The scene was really tragic."
Several chief officers of the first brigade whispered there, and a sneer immediately appeared on Xu Rui's lips.
"Why, are you scared?" Xu Rui Lengjun's eyes swept across the faces of Xie Yuan and others, and then continued, "If you are scared, you can withdraw now. I will never leave you in trouble, and I will also give you
You will receive a traveling fee! And I will send someone to send you safely out of Shanghai. It is up to you to go wherever you want."
"Commander, please don't humiliate us. Our lone camp, oh no, it's our brigade!" Xie Yuan said solemnly, "There are absolutely no cowards in our brigade! We can't do such a thing as escaping from battle!"
Xu Rui said: "Then what nonsense are you talking about?"
Xie Yuandao: "We just want to remind the commander that the little devil's navy should not be underestimated!"
"You don't need to remind me about this. I know it better than you!" Xu Rui said, "But even if the little devil's navy is the best in the world, this battle still has to be fought, right?"
"That is." Xie Yuan clenched his fists and said, "Of course we have to fight this battle. We have already given up on Shanghai once, and we definitely don't want to give up on Shanghai a second time!"
