The instructor immediately understood the meaning of Li Hao's words.
"Captain, are you referring to the prisoners in our hands?"
"It's them!" Li Hao affirmed.
"I won't force these people to join the Eighth Route Army to fight against the Japanese, but I can't do nothing. Pulling them to dig trenches and build fortifications can be regarded as contributing to the fight against the Japanese and the Japanese!"
The instructor immediately agreed: "Good idea... I still have more than 200 prisoners in hand. I will draw 150 people and divide them into three groups. Each group will arrange a squad of soldiers to watch and dig trenches along the road.
, repair fortifications.”
"Even if you don't move during the day and only move at night, you can dig at least six trenches in one night!"
Li Hao made a decisive decision: "When the supply platoon comes back, let the supply platoon take them to dig trenches and free up the combat troops to fight the Japanese."
"I will mark on the map all the places where trenches can be dug and positions can be built along the way. They will set out tomorrow night when it gets dark, repair all the blocking positions, and then return to the secret camp!"
As soon as the order was given, a burst of rapid footsteps came in.
Cavalry platoon leader Luo Tianpeng and baggage platoon leader Zhang Hao came hand in hand and rushed in panting!
"Captain, instructor, we are back!"
"Have you met the commander?" Li Hao asked with a smile.
Luo Tianpeng immediately replied: "I saw it, and the commander asked me to bring you a message!"
"As long as our guerrillas fight this battle well, the guerrillas will immediately be upgraded to the main force, and will be expanded into independent battalions, directly under the command of the divisional headquarters!"
"The commander also said that if you fight this battle well, he and the chief of staff will personally introduce you to the party!"
The promise Luo Tianpeng brought back shocked Li Hao and the two deputies.
Then a smile of surprise appeared on his face.
The guerrillas have been expanded into independent battalions directly under the military division. For these cadres who are not yet the main force, it is equivalent to jumping three levels in a row!
Such good things are usually not found with a lantern, but now that they have come across them, everyone will be surprised.
Li Hao was even more happy. The commander and chief of staff personally introduced him to join the party. Although they were essentially joining the party, with these two people as recommenders, his party membership would definitely be extraordinary!
Excited, he took advantage of the situation and said: "You heard me, if we fight this battle well, our guerrillas will be upgraded to the main force and expand the independent battalion of the military division!"
"Instructor, Lao Hong, we need to tell every member of the guerrilla team this good news!"
After the order was issued, he stared at Luo Tianpeng and continued to ask: "Is there anything else?"
"The radio operator assigned to us by the divisional headquarters is also here. His name is Zhou Liang. He is just outside the headquarters. Do you want to let him in?"
"Of course come in, he is a talented person, don't keep him waiting!" Li Hao ordered without thinking.
Soon, a young man in his twenties was brought in.
After giving Li Hao a standard military salute, he reported readily: "Hello, captain, I am the radio operator transferred from the headquarters. The commander has said that I will stay here from now on. If there is a mission captain, just tell me, I promise
mission accomplished!"
"Hello Comrade Zhou Liang, welcome to join our guerrillas!" Li Hao was very satisfied with the other party's performance.
He speaks and acts cheerfully, without the effeminate tone of many intellectuals.
More importantly, judging from Zhou Liang's appearance, his first reaction would definitely not be that he was an intellectual, but more like a weathered farmer.
In this way, even if something unexpected happens in the future and Zhou Liang is captured, the enemy will not recognize him as a guerrilla radio operator at a glance.
He immediately suggested to the instructor: "The army is getting bigger and bigger. Not only do we need order soldiers, but we will also have radio operators and telephone soldiers!"
"My idea is to expand the communications class into a communications platoon, with Comrade Zhou Liang serving as deputy platoon leader and radio class leader!"
"I agree!" Liu Wenshan could see Li Hao's thoughts at a glance.
Being transferred from the main force to the guerrillas makes everyone feel uncomfortable, and so does Zhou Liang in front of him. It's just that he hid it well and hasn't been exposed for the time being.
In order to appease Zhou Liang and allow him to stay in the guerrillas with peace of mind, he should be given some sweeteners both emotionally and rationally.
Appointing him as the deputy platoon leader of the guerrilla communication platoon, ordinary soldiers were directly promoted to cadres, which was considered as a compensation for him by the guerrillas.
Zhou Liang did not expect that such a surprise would be waiting for him when he arrived at the guerrillas. He was so excited that he quickly replied: "Thank you, captain, thank you instructor, I will definitely be a good deputy platoon leader!"
Li Hao shook his head and said: "Zhou Liang, don't be too happy first!"
"This deputy platoon leader is not as good as you think!"
"Fight this battle well. You should have heard the news that our guerrilla army has been upgraded to an independent battalion directly under the expanded military division! After the army expands, it will definitely be equipped with more than one radio station in the future. You only have one person, and it is impossible to split it in half at the same time.
Operates several radio stations!”
"So as the deputy platoon leader of the communications platoon, in addition to ensuring the radio contact between our guerrillas and the military division, you also have another task!"
"Look for suitable candidates from the entire guerrilla force to serve as your deputy, teach them how to use radios, and train radio operators!"
Zhou Liang saw Li Hao's ambition from this order.
Not only was he not shocked, but he was very excited and replied with an eager look on his face: "Don't worry, captain, give me half a year and I will definitely train at least five operators for the guerrillas!"
"Your own technical level must be further improved..." Li Hao continued to order.
"Sail against the current, and if you don't advance, you will retreat. I don't understand professional things, but there is one thing you must do: memorize the code book, and be proficient in sending and translating telegrams without a code book!"
Zhou Liang was not frightened and answered confidently: "Captain, don't worry, give me ten days to make sure you memorize the entire code book!"
Li Hao nodded with satisfaction, and then his face became serious.
"Let's get back to business. Next is the first task the guerrillas give you: the radio station captured by the guerrillas is in the small room next to the headquarters and is connected to the headquarters. You will work there from now on!"
"Time is running out. The Japanese and puppet troops may launch an attack at any time. I don't have time to let you rest."
"You should set up a radio team now. If you need manpower, just ask the instructor for it."
"Then check the radio and get in touch with the military branch immediately!"
"We have no intelligence network and can only know every move of the Japanese and puppet troops through the military division intelligence system!"
In the telecommunications room of the military division headquarters, the communications platoon leader was very happy.
The radio station brought back by the chief of staff was intact, and he also brought back a hand-operated generator specifically to power the radio station.
In this way, the communication platoon will not have to worry about the radio going on strike because the battery runs out of power.
"Didi didi..."
A crisp sound of sending and receiving telegraphs suddenly sounded in the room.
"If someone calls us, receive the message immediately!" the communications platoon leader immediately ordered.
Then I stared at the telegraph message that the telegraph operator translated word by word.
Soon, the communications platoon leader had a smile on his face, took the telegram and rushed to the headquarters, shouting as he rushed.
"Contacted, Commander, we have been contacted by Zhou Liang!"
