At ten o'clock in the night, He Shuya got up again to inspect the barracks.
He Shuya was not targeting anyone, but had developed a habit of checking the camp before going to bed. This habit was taught to them by Xu Rui. Almost everyone who came out of the youth training team was "infected" with this habit.
Habit, but He Shuya implemented it the most thoroughly, even when he was in the base area, he was unshakable.
Now that they are in Suijun's territory, He Shuya is even less likely to relax.
He Shuya deliberately did not use a flashlight and quietly walked towards the sentry in front under the cover of night.
The sentry was very alert. He heard He Shuya's footsteps at least fifty or sixty meters away. He immediately picked up the 38 cap in his hand and asked sharply: "Who is it? Password!"
"One, two, three!" He Shuya coughed lightly and said, "Reply to the order."
The sentry then lowered the muzzle of the 38-meter gun in his hand and replied: "Seven-eight-nine."
After a while, He Shuya walked up to the sentry, and the sentry quickly raised his gun and saluted.
He Shuya waved his hand and asked again: "Little sparrow, is there nothing going on here?"
The sentry was about to say no, but before he could say anything, he suddenly heard the faint sound of horse hooves. At that moment, he picked up the 38 cover again and aimed his gun at the dark night sky in front of him. Almost at the same time, He Shuya
Hearing the sound of horse hooves, Dangzhi took out a pistol from his waist and opened the phone's head.
After a while, the sound of horse hooves gradually became clearer.
Above the snowfield, a few dark figures could even be clearly seen.
The little sparrow once again raised the Sanba Gai in his hand and shouted sharply: "Who is it? Password?"
The people riding over were none other than Xu Rui and Wang Husheng. Naturally, they didn’t know the password of the Dameishan Independent Regiment. He Shuya didn’t expect that Xu Rui would come to Guisui to greet them, so he didn’t expect to inform them of the password.
Xu Rui knew it, so he couldn't answer it at all.
However, Xu Rui still shouted loudly: "I am Xu Rui, looking for your commander He."
Seeing that Xu Rui and the others couldn't answer, the little sparrow instinctively wanted to pull the trigger.
However, He Shuya had already heard that it was Xu Rui's voice and quickly stopped it.
Fortunately, He Shuya happened to be here, otherwise this misunderstanding would have become a big deal.
He Shuya stopped the little sparrow, then came forward to greet him, and said overjoyed: "Captain, why are you here?"
While they were talking, Xu Rui and Wang Husheng had already mounted their horses and arrived in front of He Shuya, and then they got off their horses again.
Wang Husheng came forward first, punched He Shuya on the chest, and then said with a smile: "Xiao He, he is much darker than before, but he is also much stronger." After saying that, he looked up and down.
He glanced at He Shuya for a few times and then said, "He is much more majestic than before, and he looks like a real regimental leader."
He Shuya was a little embarrassed and scratched his head not knowing what to say.
When it was Xu Rui's turn, he just said lightly: "It'll be good when you come back."
When chatting with Wang Husheng, He Shuya didn't react at all, but after hearing Xu Rui's light words, He Shuya immediately felt a lump in his throat, and his eye circles turned red in an instant. When in front of others, He Shuya could already make a mountain collapse.
He can hold back his huge grievances in his stomach, and his overwhelming anger can not express his emotions. But after all, he is only a nineteen-year-old young man. When he meets someone he can trust, he still
They still show various emotions, including the emotions of a child who has been wronged after leaving home and meets the elders in the family again.
Xu Rui's words, "It's good to be back" immediately aroused He Shuya's emotions.
But He Shuya still held back, and then stood upright, saluted Xu Rui with a military salute, and then shouted at the top of his lungs: "Report to the leader, He Shuya, acting deputy commander of the Dameishan Independent Regiment and commander of the second battalion, led by
The entire regiment, totaling 2,907 officers and soldiers, has come to report and ask for your...instructions!"
Xu Rui returned the military salute and solemnly said: "Take a break."
A moment later, when Xu Rui returned to the temporary headquarters of the Dameishan Independent Regiment, the battalion commanders of the other battalions, such as Huang Shouxin, Shi Changqing, Yue Zhensheng, Ding Wenbao, Qin Gang and others also arrived after hearing the news, as well as the company commanders and platoon commanders below.
There are even more like Li Hai, Heipi, Sun Changhe, etc., including officers of the Songhu Independent Regiment.
After the Songhu Independent Regiment broke out from Shanghai, it was transferred to the Dameishan base area and was immediately incorporated into one regiment. The designation of the Songhu Independent Regiment was cancelled, so Shi Changqing, Yue Zhensheng and other officers of the original Songhu Independent Regiment became
The officers of the Dameishan Independent Regiment also followed him to Suiyuan this time.
Now Xu Rui's old subordinates, except for Wan Zhongshan, who had already sacrificed their lives, were basically all here.
However, Xu Rui looked over one by one and found that a few familiar faces were missing, so he couldn't help but wonder: "Hey, where are Lao He, Xiaoyao and Gangzi?"
"Captain, I was about to tell you about this." He Shuya said immediately, "Fu Zuoyi invited them to a banquet at his headquarters, and I suspect that Fu Zuoyi has no good intentions. He will definitely be at the banquet.
The superior proposed that Lao He and several other old troops leading the Northwest Army be allowed to return to the order of the Northwest Army."
Xu Rui just laughed when he heard this and said: "Nerd, you have to have confidence in your comrades. Lao He and the others will not be easily deceived by others, not even Fu Zuoyi."
He Shuya said: "If Fu Zuoyi fails to seduce him, he may forcibly detain him."
"There is no need to worry about this." Before Xu Rui could speak, Wang Husheng said with a smile, "Xiao He, you are new here and you don't know much about the situation in Suiyuan. Don't worry, even if you borrow Fu Zuoyi's courage, he won't
Dare to kidnap someone." After a pause, he asked Xu Rui with a smile, "Old Xu, right?"
He Shuya really didn't know much about Suiyuan's situation.
All he knew was that Fu Zuoyi had liberated most of Suiyuan Province with the cooperation of the Chahar Independent Regiment last autumn. At the end of the year, he attacked Ulanqab. Although he did not liberate Ulanqab, he managed to seize more than 10 million yuan.
He Shuya and others in the base area of northern Jiangsu had heard about this matter.
He Shuya didn't know that the Suiyuan Army and the National Government deliberately concealed the participation of the Chahar Independent Regiment in the war and downplayed Xu Rui's command during their propaganda, so the outside world felt that Ulanqab's
The victory was achieved by the 35th Army under the personal command of Fu Zuoyi.
Out of solidarity considerations, Xu Rui did not reveal the truth.
Fu Zuoyi likes to brag, so let him go. As long as it does not cause substantial damage to the interests of the Chahor Independent Group, Xu Rui doesn't mind giving Fu Zuoyi more honors. Fame, reputation and honor are not something that can be eaten, so they are.
Right? Big trees attract wind. If the wind is too loud, it will bring disaster, right?
For this reason, He Shuya believed that Fu Zuoyi was very powerful in Suiyuan.
He Shuya could not have imagined that Fu Zuoyi's strength had now been completely crushed by Xu Rui.
At that moment, He Shuya said: "Commander, Fu Zuoyi's Thirty-Fifth Army is still very powerful. Moreover, the Northwest Army's combat effectiveness has always been very strong, so we must not be careless."
"Nerds, just listen to the political commissar." Xu Rui said, "It's okay."
He Shuya was still a little worried and continued: "But..."
"It's nothing." Xu Rui waved his hand and interrupted He Shuya, and then said, "Bookworm, please tell me, how did the battle at Damei Mountain end? How did it end up like that?"
Wang Husheng also said: "That's right, the iron-clad Dameishan base area, how could it be lost so easily?"
He Shuya's expression immediately became solemn and he recounted the whole story of the battle.
…
At the same time, the banquet at the Thirty-fifth Army Headquarters has come to an end.
It must be admitted that Fu Zuoyi still has great prestige among the officers and soldiers of the old Northwest Army. Especially after Song Zheyuan faded out of the military, Fu Zuoyi became the only remaining banner in the old Northwest Army. At this time, it was said that Fu Zuoyi was the leader of the entire Old Northwest Army.
It is not an exaggeration to think that he is the spiritual leader of the army, at least Fu Zuoyi thinks so.
Fu Zuoyi has always regarded revitalizing the Northwest Army as his own responsibility.
It's a pity that the green mountains can't cover it. After all, by flowing eastward, the Northwest Army as a military group has actually entered the garbage dump of history. Therefore, no matter how hard Fu Zuoyi tries, it is impossible to restore its former glory.
But He Guangming and the others still respect Fu Zuoyi very much. When Fu Zuoyi proposed a toast, they were all welcome, so by now, He Guangming, who had always had a good drinker, was already half drunk. Yao Lei, Zhu Chen, Ji
Cheng and Tiegang had already fallen unconscious on the table.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Ye Qijie winked at Fu Zuoyi repeatedly.
Fu Zuoyi coughed lightly and asked casually: "Brother Guangming, Chen Chen has sacrificed his life for the country, and the designation of the 59th Army has been revoked. Now it is impossible for you to return to the army, but
I'm afraid staying in the Eighth Route Army like this is not a long-term solution. I wonder what your plans are in the future?"
It's really hard for Fu Zuoyi. He actually found out that He Guangming's battalion was only seconded to the command of Xu Rui. From the beginning to the end, Zhang Zizhong never said that he would give He Guangming's battalion to the Dameishan Independent Regiment, so in a sense
Frankly speaking, there is really nothing wrong with Fu Zuoyi's request for He Guangmingying to return to the city.
He Guangming didn't hear the first half of the sentence clearly, but after hearing the second half, he immediately said: "Plan? What other plans can I have? After arriving in Suiyuan, I will continue to resist the Japanese and fight the Japanese." He paused for a moment and smiled again.
He said, "Sir Fu, besides fighting, we don't do anything else, don't you think so?"
"No." Fu Zuoyi said, "I mean, do you still want to return to Jian?"
"Return to Jian, of course I have to return to Jian." He Guangming replied without thinking. However, before Fu Zuoyi and Ye Qijie could be happy for a moment, He Guangming continued, "We traveled thousands of miles from northern Jiangsu to Suiyuan Province.
, aren’t we just here to return to the army? It’s great that we can fight under the command of the regiment commander again.”
Fu Zuoyi and Ye Qijie's faces immediately darkened.
