Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty One Arrives in the 120th Division
On February 10th, Liu Gen left the division headquarters and headed towards the location of the 120th Division.
The 120th Division is a certain distance from the 129th Division. Liu Gen rarely paid attention to information about the 120th Division before. He was from the 129th Division, so how could he pay attention to this? Besides, Liu Gen had a lot of things to do every day.
There is not enough time to pay attention to the situation of the 120th Division.
When leaving the division headquarters, Liu Gen was somewhat reluctant to leave. If possible, he did not want to leave the 129th Division. After all, he had stayed in the 129th Division for too long. People are nostalgic animals, and so is Liu Gen. Compared with himself, he is very
The familiar 129th Division and 120th Division are a little too unfamiliar to Liu Gen, but unfortunately, he still needs to go to the 120th Division.
Liu Gen knew that because the division commander and bosses valued him, and he chose to stay in the 120th Division, the division commander and others would definitely agree to Liu Gen's request and let Liu Gen stay in the 129th Division.
But Liu Gen did not choose to do this. He knew that he could not stay in the 129th Division forever. Even if he stayed in the 129th Division, there was not much he could do. For the current 129th Division, he has done enough.
, it also needs to give the 129th Division a certain amount of time to digest. For the current 129th Division, the most important thing to do is to convert what Liu Gen gave into combat effectiveness as soon as possible.
Staying in the 129th Division is not very good for Liu Gen. In the eyes of the division commander and bosses, Liu Gen has lost too many troops and his potential can be tapped. They hope that Liu Gen can get out of the 129th Division and go to other units to increase his knowledge.
The teachers and bosses want to cultivate Liu Gen and tap more of Liu Gen’s potential so that Liu Gen can truly grow into a pillar of the country.
In order to ensure Liu Gen's safety, when Liu Gen left, the division commander specifically asked Liu Gen to select two strong soldiers as bodyguards. This moved Liu Gen very much. Considering Liu Gen's situation, how much did the two bodyguards have to do?
It was somewhat inappropriate, but the division commander still arranged it this way. He didn't want Liu Gen to encounter any danger.
Naturally, Liu Gen could only accept the kindness of the division commander. When selecting guards, he specially selected two young soldiers, both of whom were not weak in strength. Of course, if these two soldiers were compared with Liu Gen,
So naturally there is no comparison. In Liu Gen's opinion, by choosing two young warriors to follow him, he can teach these two warriors something, at least make them stronger.
As for relying on these two warriors to protect himself, Liu Gen has no such idea. With his strength, he does not need the protection of these two warriors.
Wang Lei and Wang Jun are the names of these two soldiers. They are relatively rare twins. In this era, twins are somewhat rare. However, due to the poverty of their families, Wang Lei and Wang Jun can only choose
Joining the army is the only way to provide them with enough food. They are half-grown and poor. In order to raise Wang Lei and Wang Jun to adulthood, their parents have worked very hard.
Choosing to join the Eighth Route Army was also because Wang Lei and Wang Jun were well aware of the poverty at home, and coupled with the Japanese invasion, they realized that only the Eighth Route Army could kill the Japanese and reduce the burden on their families. Without Wang,
Lei, the two of them, and their parents at home can also reduce some pressure and don't have to work so hard.
Liu Gen also learned about the situation of Wang Lei and Wang Lei from his division commander. Before leaving the base area, he specially asked Wang Lei and Wang Lei to go home to visit their families. After leaving, he did not know when they would be able to come back. Originally, he knew that Wang Lei
In the case of the two of them, Liu Gen wanted to keep them, but after Wang Lei and the other two learned about it, they were unwilling to stay. They wanted to stay with Liu Gen.
In this regard, Liu Gen didn't have any good solution, so he could only smile bitterly and ask the two of them to follow him.
"Leizi, how is the situation at your home?" Liu Gen and Wang Lei were chatting on the road.
Wang Lei scratched his head, and it was obvious that he was in a good mood, "The situation at home is not bad. With the allowances we two sent back, our basic life is no problem. We two brothers are at home, and we have taken the time to cultivate land.
Once some land is harvested, life at home should be better."
Wang Jun on the side was speechless. Compared with Wang Lei, he didn't talk much. When Liu Gen and Liu Gen were chatting, he looked around vigilantly to avoid encountering any enemies.
"That's good. When it's almost harvest time, I'll give you two boys a holiday so that you can go home and help." Liu Gen said with a smile.
Wang Lei was stunned for a moment and said quickly: "Hey, thank you in advance."
"You're welcome, it's just a small matter." Liu Gen waved his hand and said casually.
Looking at Wang Lei and Wang Lei beside him, Liu Gen was somewhat envious. They could still have a home to go back to, but what about him? After a moment of silence, Liu Gen regained his energy and accelerated towards the location of the 120th Division.
It has to be said that with Wang Lei and Wang Lei around, Liu Gen was in a good mood along the way. If he were alone, even if he was used to not talking, there would be some problems, but now there are no problems.
, this makes him not have much resistance to Wang Lei and two people being his bodyguards. Wang Lei and Liu Gen are not weaker than Liu Gen, but with the company of the two of them, Liu Gen can be in better shape.
Thinking about it, this is why the division commander must assign himself guards.
The 120th Division is a certain distance from the 129th Division. In addition, the 120th Division received an order from the headquarters to set up its headquarters in Yan'an. This makes it take a lot of time for Liu Gen and others to reach the 120th Division. In addition, the areas they pass through
The presence of many Japanese and puppet troops has affected the progress of Liu Gen and others. According to Liu Gen's estimation, it will take at least a week to successfully reach the 120th Division.
Different from the situation of the 129th Division, the situation of the 120th Division is relatively complicated. Its activity area is in northwest Shanxi, but its headquarters is the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia-Shanxi-Suiyuan Joint Defense Force Headquarters in Yan'an. When Liu Gen goes to the 120th Division, he first needs to go to Yan'an
, after reporting at the headquarters, officially go to the 120th Division.
When Liu Gen and others came to the outskirts of Liao County, Liu Gen also made a special trip to the Independent Regiment. After leaving this time, he didn't know when he would be able to come back. It was still necessary to say goodbye to Li Yunlong. At the same time, Liu Gen
Gen also wanted to know what Li Yunlong would do next after being quiet for so long. He was still very curious about this.
Returning to the Independence Regiment, there was naturally nothing to say. The Independence Regiment was Liu Gen’s hometown. Li Yunlong and others were very enthusiastic and welcomed Liu Gen’s arrival. When he knew that Liu Gen was going to the 120th Division, Li Yunlong was a little bit
Reluctantly, he knew that Liu Gen had gone to the 120th Division, so it would not be that easy to see him again.
If Liu Gen and Zhao Gang hadn't stopped him, Li Yunlong would probably have called the division commander directly and begged the division commander not to let Liu Gen leave the 129th Division.
From Li Yunlong's mouth, Liu Gen also learned some of Li Yunlong's thoughts. The independent group was so quiet because they wanted to make a big move. As for Liu Gen's question about what the big move was, Li Yunlong chose to keep it secret and did not say too much.
There are many things, but judging from Li Yunlong's expression, he is confident enough about the next big move.
After seeing that Li Yunlong was confident enough, Liu Gen had no idea of asking in detail. He believed that with Li Yunlong's ability, unless something unexpected happened, there wouldn't be any big problems at all.
After staying in the independent regiment for one night, Liu Gen chose to leave. Although the division commander did not say when he should arrive at the 120th Division, it was better to arrive early.
After leaving the Independent Regiment, Liu Gen and others' driving speed slowed down a lot, especially when passing through some areas where the Japanese and puppet troops had strong control. For the sake of safety, they could only choose to drive at night. And driving at night,
It will affect the speed to some extent, and Liu Gen and the other three were very patient about this.
On the way, Liu Gen discovered that it was not the Japanese and puppet troops that often caused trouble for him and others, but the bandits hiding in the mountains. These bandits relied on their better familiarity with everything in the mountains to occupy areas that were easy to defend and difficult to attack.
The Japanese and puppet troops had no interest in exterminating these bandits, which made the bandits become even more rampant.
Liu Gen and others encountered a lot of bandits. During this period, some bandits took the initiative to attack Liu Gen and others, which greatly affected the speed of Liu Gen and others' progress. It was also Liu Gen's marksmanship that was so strong that they were able to fight against Liu Gen and others.
They have some confidence when they are bandits, otherwise they will easily run into problems when faced with attacks from bandits.
In the attack by the bandits, Liu Gen and others were not without gains. Under Liu Gen's guidance, both Wang Lei and Wang Jun got a lot of experience, and their marksmanship was slightly improved. Wang Lei and Wang Jun both
After joining the Eighth Route Army, they almost always stayed in the division headquarters and experienced battles, but in Liu Gen's eyes, their combat experience was still too little.
The appearance of these bandits greatly increased the combat experience of Wang Lei and Wang Lei. At least they would no longer vomit after killing people. The bandits did not expect that they would become a tool to train Wang Lei and Wang Lei to become bandits.
, there are some problems, not to mention they take the initiative to find trouble for themselves, Wang Lei and the two will not have any psychological burden when they take action.
The battle between Wang Lei and the bandits allowed Liu Gen to clearly see their strength, and also discovered their shortcomings. Wang Lei and the others had a good foundation, but they saw too little blood and could not fully fight against the bandits.
Given their strength, if they were sent directly to the front line, it would be difficult to survive the brutal battle.
The bandits along the way became the best tool to train Wang Lei and the two men. With Liu Gen here, even if Wang Lei and the two were not opponents of the Japanese, Liu Gen could kill the bandits in time.
Time continued to pass like this. A week later, Liu Gen and the others arrived in Yan'an safely. In this week, at least a dozen bandits died in the hands of Wang Lei and the others. The two of them had changed a lot, and their bodies were even more different.
A little more murderous.
Liu Gen was very satisfied with the changes made by Wang Lei and Wang Lei. He didn't want Wang Lei and Wang Lei to gain anything by their side. Moreover, after experiencing the battle with the bandits, Liu Gen didn't have to worry about Wang Lei and Wang Lei.
Combat strength, when encountering enemies, you can trust them to assist you.
Returning to Yan'an again, Liu Gen felt a little emotional. It hadn't been too long since he last came to Yan'an, but coming to Yan'an again made him feel like he was in another world. This may also be because Liu Gen
Gen must have gone through a lot during this time.
He took Wang Lei and the two to the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia-Jinsu-Suiyuan Joint Defense Force Headquarters. After being informed by soldiers from the headquarters, Liu Gen met Commander He of the 120th Division.
Before coming to the 120th Division, Liu Gen had seriously asked about Mr. He from his teacher. From the teacher's mouth, he learned that Mr. He was very good and it was not that difficult to get along with him. But even so, Liu Gen was
When I saw Mr. He, I was still a little nervous.
"Comrade Liu Gen, our 120th Division is finally waiting for you!"
"Comrade Liu Gen, I have heard about the artillery school and special operations team that you established in the 129th Division. It greatly enhanced the combat effectiveness of the 129th Division and allowed the 129th Division to successfully surpass our 120th Division. I have reported to the bosses at the headquarters several times
We asked Comrade Liu Gen to come to our 120th Division to help, but we have never received the consent of the bosses."
"Okay this time, Comrade Liu Gen has come to our 120th Division. I hope that Comrade Liu Gen can also help our 120th Division to establish an artillery school and a special operations team." Commander He was very enthusiastic, and when he saw Liu Gen, he was even more enthusiastic.
With a smile, his eyes were full of appreciation for Liu Gen.
Liu Gen didn’t know Mr. He very well, but Mr. He knew Liu Gen quite well and had been paying attention to Liu Gen. When Mr. He first learned about Liu Gen, it was Li Yunlong who successfully led the new regiment from the Japanese Bantian Alliance.
During the encirclement, a frontal breakthrough was made. At that time, Commander He also asked the commanders at all levels of the 120th Division to study this battle example carefully.
It was also because Commander He had carefully understood this battle that he knew the existence of Liu Gen, an artilleryman. Later, Liu Gen made considerable military exploits several times. When Liu Gen successfully shot down the Japanese fighter plane with a mortar,
Mr. He had a deeper understanding of Liu Gen.
It's just that at that time, Commander He didn't pay much attention to it. Liu Gen's artillery skills were good, but it was impossible for him to ask the 129th Division for an artilleryman, not to mention that the 129th Division couldn't easily give such a powerful artilleryman to the 120th Division.
.It wasn’t until Liu Gen helped the 129th Division successfully establish an artillery school and special operations team that Commander He truly realized Liu Gen’s ability, which made him apply to his bosses several times, hoping that Liu Gen would come to the 120th Division.
Faced with Master He's application, the bosses rejected it several times. This was because Liu Gen's affairs in the 129th Division had not yet been completed. But this time Liu Gen completed his mission again, and the 129th Division had nothing for Liu Gen to do for the time being.
, the bosses agreed to Mr. He’s application and let Liu Gen come to the 120th Division.
"Mr. He, don't worry. I met the bosses before I came to the 120th Division. The bosses told me to conscientiously complete the tasks assigned by you, Mr. He!" Liu Gen said very seriously.
Mr. He laughed and patted Liu Gen on the shoulder, but he became more and more satisfied with Liu Gen.
