After the four combat heroes each represented the special operations unit, the cavalry battalion, the 2nd battalion and the 3rd battalion took the stage to receive the award, a grand parade followed. Han Feng, Tie Xiaogang and two other soldiers were dressed in red and colorful and rode across the river on tall horses.
We walked around Dengwen Lane passing by Mei Town, and then the commendation meeting finally ended. ◇↓,
The fellow villagers who attended the meeting dispersed and went back to their homes.
It must be admitted that the effect of this commendation meeting was very good. It not only publicized the great victory just achieved, but also greatly inspired the confidence and morale of the people in the base area.
Now, people in almost the entire base area are talking about the Independent Regiment. It is completely foreseeable that tomorrow, the recruitment office of the Independent Regiment in the Meijia Ancestral Hall will be crowded with young people from all over the country. In the not-too-distant future,
The Dameishan Independent Regiment is bound to usher in a wave of rapid military expansion.
At present, the Independent Regiment only has three infantry battalions, one cavalry battalion and an artillery company, with a strength of close to 2,000 people. However, it won't be long before the Independent Regiment's strength will experience explosive growth, tripling its size and becoming a division.
I dare not say, but it is entirely possible to double the number and become a strengthened group.
Of course, all this must have a prerequisite, that is, the Japanese raids must be repelled.
Therefore, both Xu Rui and Wang Husheng are in a very good mood at the moment.
When Xu Rui and Wang Husheng hurriedly returned to the regiment headquarters, it was already past eleven o'clock in the night, but the two of them had no intention of going to sleep. After entering the regiment headquarters meeting room, they were still discussing what they were discussing.
?Of course we are discussing the effectiveness of this commendation conference, and then looking forward to the future.
Wang Husheng said: "Old Xu, I am really impressed by you tonight. I originally thought you were just a martial artist who knew nothing but how to fight, but I never expected that you would do this.
He turns out to be a good hand at propaganda work, so even though I am a veteran political worker, I have to accept the defeat."
Xu Rui waved his hands repeatedly: "The political commissar is joking, joking, haha."
"I'm not joking with you." Wang Husheng said seriously, "I found that you are very good at inspiring people. The same words are said by others in a dry manner, but when you say them, the sky is full of excitement. Oh, I use
The words may be a bit inappropriate, but that’s the meaning.”
After a pause, Wang Husheng said again: "I have already thought about it. When you are free, I have to ask you to give a report to the fellow villagers. You don't need to talk about international politics and the situation. You will give the report to the fellow villagers.
Tell me about the battles you participated in, yes, tell the fellow villagers battle stories."
"Pull you down." Xu Rui said, "I don't have the time."
"This matter is not up to you." Wang Husheng said, "This is a political task."
Seeing that Xu Rui wanted to refute, Wang Husheng immediately rushed to say: "We have agreed in advance. You have the final say on the war, but I have the final say on other things. You have to listen to me on this matter.
You have to obey orders, otherwise, don’t blame me for using my status as a political commissar to oppress you. Let me tell you, I won’t be polite to you. If a tiger doesn’t show its power, do you really think that I, the political commissar, is a sick cat? You know me
Lao Wang is not a decoration."
"Okay, okay, you Lao Wang is definitely not a decoration, you are a tiger." Xu Rui said angrily, "As the donkey said, you are Lao Wang next door, who dares to say that you are a decoration?"
"Lao Wang next door? What do you mean?" Wang Husheng said, "I don't live next door to you."
Naturally, Xu Rui would not tell Wang Husheng what Lao Wang next door meant. He immediately changed the subject and said: "Well, Lao Wang, you said last time that the equipment of a team is not very good. For a team of two thousand people, the total number of long and short guns
But there are only more than 500 of them. The army intends for us to support a batch of weapons and ammunition, right?"
After the second cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, the guerrillas in the seven provinces south of the Yangtze River were unified and reorganized into the new Fourth Army, which had four detachments. The Dameishan Independent Regiment led by Xu Rui only joined later.
At present, the first and second detachments of the New Fourth Army have advanced from southern Anhui to southern Jiangsu, preparing to open base areas behind enemy lines in southern Jiangsu.
The second detachment has fought several victorious battles in southern Jiangsu and captured a lot of weapons and equipment. The conditions have been greatly improved. However, the first detachment was in a bad start and the situation was relatively difficult. Therefore, Army Commander Ye Ting hoped that the independent regiment could provide support.
Part of the weapons and equipment of the first detachment to improve the situation of the first detachment.
Wang Husheng said: "I have already rejected this matter. Our independent regiment has won several battles and seized a lot of weapons and equipment, but the problem is that our team also needs to expand, and the weapons and equipment seized are not enough.
If I use it myself, how can I have any spare support for other detachments? So I refused directly."
Xu Rui said: "Old Wang, look at what you have done, who said we don't have spare equipment?"
Wang Husheng was stunned for a moment and said: "I have no business doing this. Our independent regiment does not have spare equipment. Last time we seized a lot of equipment in Huilonggou, but they were all ammunition and supplies, but there were no weapons.
After many, many battles, although we have captured a lot of equipment, we can barely use it ourselves, so how can we have extra support for our detachment?"
Xu Rui chuckled and said mysteriously: "Old Wang, I won't hide it from you. Our independent regiment also has a secret arsenal near Wuxi. I have stored enough weapons and equipment to arm a regiment there. Since one
The detachment is in difficulty, so we can just support them with this batch of weapons and equipment."
"What are you talking about?" Wang Husheng said in astonishment, "Our independent regiment has a secret arsenal near Wuxi? Where do you store enough weapons and equipment to arm a regiment? Lao Xu, when did this happen? What can I do?
Don’t know? You have to tell me about this, because you don’t want me, the political commissar, to be kept in the dark.”
"No way, I can't even respect you as a political commissar." Xu Rui laughed and told the story of how he took down the Tachibana Regiment headquarters and seized a large amount of weapons and equipment.
After Wang Husheng heard this, he was overjoyed and said happily: "That's great. Old Chen will be very happy if he knows about it. No, if he goes back to Sunan, he will have to treat me to a drink!"
"What's the point of drinking?" Xu Rui said cheerfully, "I have to ask Commander Chen to give you a Japanese girl."
"Hey, old Xu, why are you blaming Japanese girls again?" Wang Husheng was greatly embarrassed when he heard this, and said with a dark face, "Didn't I just mention it casually yesterday, and why are you trying to embarrass me like this? What's more?
I told you, that Dr. Junko looks at you differently from others, don’t tell me that you really don’t know.”
Xu Rui smiled and said: "You are an old bachelor, can you still understand the strange look in a woman's eyes?"
Wang Husheng said: "I have never eaten pork, and I have never seen a pig running? Why can't I understand it?"
Xu Rui smiled and said: "It seems that I really need to ask Yan Zi to pay attention and introduce someone to you."
"Go, go, go, you don't need to worry about my affairs." Wang Husheng said, "You'd better handle the affairs between you and those confidantes. Don't think that I really don't know about your affairs, except for the little ones."
Bai, Dr. Junko, and Xiao Taohong, and there is also Jiangnan in Nanjing. They really caused trouble, but don't say I didn't warn you."
"You don't need to worry about this matter, political commissar. My regimental leader can make things right."
"You are so beautiful, do you really plan to be Ximen Qing? You still have to settle it."
While the two were talking, there was a sudden knock on the door of the conference room.
Wang Husheng turned around and said angrily: "Who is it? Still not sleeping at this late hour?"
The door of the conference room opened, and the figure of 1st Battalion Commander He Guangming appeared outside the door and said, "Aren't the regimental commander and the political commissar sleeping too?"
"Old He? Come in, come in and sit down." Wang Husheng quickly waved to He Guangming to let him in, and then poured a cup of cold water for He Guangming with his own hands. He Guangming happened to be a little thirsty, so he was not polite at the moment and took the cup.
He drank it all in one gulp and wiped his mouth with his sleeve at the end, as if he still had more to drink.
Wang Husheng poured another glass of cold water for He Guangming.
He Guangming did not drink immediately this time, but said: "Regiment leader, political commissar, I want to make a request to you."
"Request?" Wang Husheng paused in his heart, and exchanged a look with Xu Rui first, and then said, "Lao He, just say, if there is anything we have not done well, as long as you bring it up, we will do our best.
Possible improvements, but in short, the brothers in the 1st Battalion will never be wronged."
"No, political commissar, you misunderstood." He Guangming said, "I'm not saying that the regiment is not doing well, but I feel that the regiment takes too much care of our 1st Battalion. Look, the barracks where the brothers from the 2nd and 3rd Battalions live.
There is air leakage from all sides, but our 1st Battalion lives in a compound and has the best food in the group. However, our 1st Battalion has not made any contribution to the group, so we feel very sorry."
Xu Rui immediately said: "Did anyone say weird things in front of you? Tell them, who said that your 1st Battalion has not contributed to the regiment? The most important task of your 1st Battalion now is to rest and recuperate, and to build up enough strength.
When your energy is used in the future, your 1st Battalion will be like a tiger descending from the mountain, killing the little Japanese in one bite."
Wang Husheng also said: "Old Xu is right, your 1st Battalion's current mission is to rest and reorganize."
"Reporting to the leader and the political commissar, no one said weird things in front of us, but our 1st Battalion has rested and recuperated." He Guangming stood up to attention and said loudly, "Now our 1st Battalion just wants to participate in the battle."
Wang Husheng glanced at Xu Rui and asked, "Lao He, is this your personal intention or the intention of the entire battalion?"
"Report to the political commissar." He Guangming said loudly, "This is the intention of all the officers and soldiers of our 1st Battalion. The brothers told me that they no longer want to be spectators, they want to participate in the battle, and they want to fight the Japanese!"
