The time came to the end of July amid the raging war.
For more than a month, the Dameishan base area has been relatively calm. Xu Rui mainly did two things.
The first thing was to expand the army and prepare for war. Based on more than 2,000 veterans who had returned from injury, ten new infantry battalions were formed, plus an engineering battalion and an artillery battalion. In order to deceive others, the numbers of these ten infantry battalions were
Xu Rui and Wang Husheng also took great pains to label everything with the word "preparation".
That is, prepare 1 battalion, prepare 2 battalions, prepare 3 battalions, and prepare 10 battalions.
Although everyone knows what is going on, it can at least block other people's excuses. For example, when Chairman Chiang sent people to ask why so many troops were expanded, Xu Rui and the others could be confident that these were all militiamen and reserve forces.
, has no combat capability at all. During the war, it can only maintain order in the rear.
However, the facts are obviously not like this. In fact, these twelve battalions are strictly built in accordance with the standards of the main force, including the entire training plan and equipment level. These twelve so-called reserve battalions, along with the regiment's three
There is no difference between the two main infantry battalions.
Currently, these twelve recruit battalions are undergoing intensive training.
In addition to military expansion and war preparations, another thing is engineering construction, especially the three key engineering projects of power plants, arsenals and cement plants, which Xu Rui is personally responsible for. The entire project has actually started one after another since early June.
, began to enter in mid-June.
Then, now, after more than a month of intense construction, the power plant has been completed. In ten minutes, Xu Rui will personally push up the gantry of the electric switch and prepare to supply power.
At this time, the regiment's military compound was already crowded with people.
Here, we need to focus on introducing the regiment’s military compound.
The Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army have always given people the impression that they have no fixed place to live. Even the Party Central Committee rents cave dwellings from local people.
But this is not necessary, but out of helplessness, because until the liberation, the Party Central Committee had to move frequently, so there was no way to build houses to improve one's living conditions. The Party Central Committee was like this, and the troops below it were
Needless to say, I just rented a house to live in.
However, the Dameishan Group is fully capable of solving the housing problem.
Therefore, taking advantage of this large-scale construction movement and the sufficient labor force in the base area, Xu Rui specially found a large piece of wasteland at the foot of Qingfengling and built more than a dozen small courtyards. These dozen small courtyards are dedicated to
It is used to house the officers of the regiment who are married and have children, such as Gao Chu.
The democratic government of Meixian County also has a cadre compound, so they do not live here.
At present, there are not many families living in the military compound, only a dozen or so, mainly cadres at the battalion level or above.
However, this is only a temporary phenomenon. In another half month, the regiment's military compound will be expanded to hundreds of households, because 70 or 80 company-level officers have submitted marriage applications and housing applications to the party organization. These 70 or 80 applications
Xu Rui approved everything, and workers from the Ministry of Construction are already preparing to select sites to build houses.
The sun has gone down and the sky has begun to darken. Family members in the military compound walked out of their small yards one after another and hurried to the entrance of the military compound.
Xiao Taohong held the second emperor's hand and walked in front happily, while constantly turning back to urge Sai Hongfu: "Sister, you should hurry up, hurry up."
Sai Hongfu said lazily: "Damn girl, what are you so anxious about?"
Turning his head, Sai Hongfu saw Xiao Yanyue walking out of her small courtyard holding Doudou, so she moved up to tease Doudou in Xiao Yanyue's arms: "Doudou, what did your mother just give you?
?”
Doudou tilted his little head and looked at Sai Hongfu but said nothing.
Only when she saw Erhuang holding Xiao Taohong's hand, Doudou's big black eyes became vivid and she struggled to get off the ground. Xiao Yanyue quickly put Doudou on the ground.
As soon as Doudou landed, he immediately spread out his short legs and chased after the second emperor.
Living together in the army compound, the second emperor had already become familiar with Doudou this month. When he saw Doudou chasing after him, the second emperor raised his dog's head and whined at Xiao Taohong, who then laughed and cursed, and let go
After taking off the dog leash in his hand, the second emperor immediately rushed out like an arrow. Doudou was not willing to lag behind and chased after him with all his strength.
Leng Tiefeng closed the courtyard door, turned around and saw this scene, and quickly told Doudou: "Doudou, run slowly, don't fall."
But Doudou had already run away quickly.
Xu Rui walked over with a smile, bumped Leng Tiefeng with his shoulder, and said, "Okay, veteran, he looks like a father."
Leng Tiefeng snorted contemptuously and said, "What do you mean like?"
When passing Gao Chu's small courtyard, I happened to see Gao Chu carefully helping Chu Chu out of the courtyard gate. In fact, Chu Chu's belly was not pregnant yet, and it was not time to ask for help, but Gao Chu was worried.
Gao Chu looked nervous, as if he was holding a priceless treasure in his hand, but to Gao Chu, the child in Chu Chu's belly was almost as priceless, and he would not exchange it no matter how much money he gave him.
Chu Chu was supported by Gao Chu, her pretty face was both sweet and shy.
Sai Hongfu walked up, glanced at Xu Rui and said, "Look at this person."
Xu Rui came over and hugged Sai Hongfu's small waist, then bit her pink earlobe and said: "Then you should lay an egg for me. We have been together for more than half a year, and I don't see you having one."
What's going on?"
"Bah." Sai Hongfu spat sweetly and said angrily, "My land is very fat. It's obvious that there is something wrong with your seeds. If you sow them, they won't sprout."
Xu Rui paused in his heart when he heard this, could it be?
When I was reading online in the past, I always saw in books that time travel would have sequelae, such as loss of fertility and so on. It was unlucky. Wouldn't this kind of unscrupulous thing really happen to you?
Seeing that Xu Rui seemed a little depressed, Sai Hongfu immediately softened her heart. She hugged Xu Rui and comforted her softly: "I was just talking casually. You are so strong and nothing will happen. Women are like this sometimes. I remember
When my mother married into my family, she was childless for three years, and then she gave birth to me."
"I'm not sad, do I look like a person without a son?" Xu Rui said, "Gao Chu always says to everyone that his wife's butt is big enough to give birth to a son, and she will give birth to several more in a row.
, Hehe, Xiaobai, your butt is much bigger than that of Chu Chu. You can definitely give birth to more than a dozen sons, which is enough for me to set up an intensive class."
Sai Hongfu then said coquettishly: "How many children are there? You think I am a sow, how can you give birth to such a child?"
Xu Rui let out a hey, and looked up just in time to see Wang Husheng coming out of his small courtyard, but the others were all in a family, or at least in pairs, but Wang Husheng was still alone.
Xu Rui said: "By the way, Xiaobai, how about the matter where I asked you to match up Lao Wang and Qiulan?"
Qiulan was one of the first female spies Sai Hongfu brought to Qingfeng Village from the Qingbai Group, and she was quite beautiful.
Sai Hongfu said: "I arranged for them to meet last time. Qiulan seemed to be quite satisfied with Lao Wang, but Lao Wang never responded. I guess she probably didn't like Qiulan."
"Not interested? Could it be that Lao Wang wants to marry a fairy in the sky?" Xu Rui snorted, "I'll ask."
At that moment, Xu Rui walked a few steps and came to Wang Husheng's door. He said hello: "Old Wang, have you eaten?"
"Aren't you talking nonsense?" Wang Husheng rolled his eyes and said, "You asked me if I had eaten a big pot of rice eaten at the regiment headquarters?"
Xu Rui chuckled and cooed at Han Feng's family of three who came out of the courtyard in front.
Erya's belly was now very high, but Han Feng was not as nervous as Gao Chu. However, Aunt Han was worried about Erya and followed Erya closely.
Wang Husheng said nothing, but his face looked a little lonely.
Xu Rui then said: "Old Wang, please give me a word of truth. Have you taken a liking to Qiulan?"
Wang Husheng sighed and finally told Xu Rui the truth: "Old Xu, let me tell you the truth. I actually have someone in my heart. I thought I had let it go. But after I saw Qiulan that day, I realized that I was wrong.
At that time, all I could think about was her, and I really, really wanted to see her."
Xu Rui became interested after hearing this. This was the first time Wang Husheng expressed his true feelings.
Xu Rui said: "Old Wang, tell me what her name is and where she is?"
Wang Husheng glanced at Xu Rui and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Xu Rui said: "I will ask the veteran to bring someone to kidnap her for you."
Wang Husheng shook his head and laughed and cursed: "Look at your character. If you disagree, you will send troops to kidnap people. You don't look like the leader of the New Fourth Army. You are just a living bandit."
Xu Rui said: "There's no way. I'm too lazy to care about other people's affairs. I can't ignore your affairs, Lao Wang. I can't do it because all the company commanders and platoon commanders under me are married and have families, but you, a big political commissar, have always been single. That's not the case."
It’s not a big deal, and it won’t have a good impact if it spreads, so you must resolve your life-long matter.”
"Then there's no need for you to send troops to snatch people away." Wang Husheng said, "I'll tell you the truth. Her name is Liu Mei, and she is a socialite at Paramount Shanghai. Do you think it's possible?"
Xu Rui's mouth immediately opened wide, never expecting that Wang Husheng's lover was actually a socialite from Paramount.
It took a long time for Xu Rui to react, and he chuckled and said: "Okay, Lao Wang, you really don't miss the mark. If I have a chance to go to Shanghai later, I will definitely go to Paramount to see who this Liu Mei is."
, can actually make our political commissar Wang faint."
Wang Husheng sighed: "I have known her for more than ten years. At that time, our two families were neighbors. But when I saw her again in Shanghai later, she was already... different."
Xu Rui whispered: "When you saw Liu Mei again at Paramount, did you feel sad?"
"I can't say how sad I am, just a little emotional." Wang Husheng shook his head and said, "Old Xu, don't rush to introduce me to someone, let me adjust myself first, okay?"
