Chapter 1303 Comrade Tang Dao (please vote for me!)
No one knows how sweet Tang Dao’s wedding night was!
Anyway, it is said that Shui Zi, who stayed in his small house next to Tang Tuanzuo, stared at the starry sky for half the night with his big eyes, so he slept obediently and only snored.
Not to mention the miraculous sound-isolating effect of the big drooping pig ears, Guaibei, despite his size, is just a little pig mentally, and has no idea what those melodious chants mean.
But there was nothing the poor Corporal Hammer could do. Tang Tuanzuo needed to be on guard, but no one was suitable to be a sentry at this time, so he could only let him, an 'unlucky dog' with a keen sense of hearing and smell, listen to the wall all night.
Therefore, when Tang Tuanzuo still got up on time at 6 o'clock to box in the courtyard, Corporal Hammer stared at his boss with a pair of hazy dog eyes.
Don’t singles even have the right to sleep?
It's not that Tang Tuanzuo didn't work hard enough last night, it's that Tantai became a woman in the early months of the next month and was already exhausted. She was as fierce as Tang Tuanzuo, but she could only use 20/10 of her abilities.
Without boxing, is it possible to beat a dog?
The early bird catches the worm, and those who get up early will wait for good news.
In fact, there were people who got up earlier than Tang Tuanzuo.
Brigadier Cheng Da wandered around the courtyard where he lived early.
After finally staying up until 8 o'clock, I happily took the guards to find Tang Dao.
Then, I saw Tang Dao running from a distance, fully armed and carrying a large camouflage backpack.
Brigadier Cheng Da and his party were really confused. Is this the runaway groom?
After asking, I found out that this is a subject that Tang Tuanzuo must practice every day when he is not fighting. He is fully equipped and cross-country for 10 kilometers.
No one can succeed casually. Brigadier Cheng cannot help but admire this little brother Tang Dao. This should be the most self-disciplined soldier he has ever seen since he was admitted to Whampoa Military Academy.
After waving their hands to several guards to keep watch in the distance, the two of them found a place to sit down on the side of the mountain road.
Brigadier Cheng did not speak directly, but stared at Tang Dao with a serious face.
"How did the leaders reply?" Tang Dao looked at Brigadier Cheng, who had a serious look on his face, and took the initiative to speak.
"Tang Dao, Tang Dao, do you know how many people you made didn't sleep well last night?" Brigadier Cheng shook his head slightly and sighed.
"The heads of the group army headquarters held a meeting last night to discuss your request and sent a telegram to their superiors for instructions. Several chiefs in An County were already asleep. They were alarmed by the telegram. The meeting was not finalized until 2 o'clock. When I received the telegram,
It's already three o'clock.
Hey! It’s my fault.”
"Whether the party organization wants to test me again, it doesn't matter. I can continue to accept the test of the party organization." Tang Dao's heart skipped a beat.
"In order not to disturb your bridal night, Comrade Tang Dao, I stayed up until dawn with my eyes wide open, and didn't go to your side until after 8 o'clock.
Who knew that Comrade Tang Dao, you would ignore your beloved wife and engage in boxing and armed cross-country training? Do you think I stayed up all night in vain? Am I stupid?" Brigadier Cheng Da changed the subject and laughed.
road.
At this moment, Tang Dao couldn't care less about Brigadier Cheng's teasing. All he could think about was the word 'comrade'. It had been almost two years since he came to this time and space, and the voice that called him Comrade Tang Dao still stayed in the long river of time and space.
the other end of.
"Comrade Tang Dao, congratulations on joining our party and becoming a glorious party member!"
"Comrade Tang Dao, on behalf of the brigade party committee, I award you the title of outstanding party member!"
"Comrade Tang Dao, congratulations on your promotion to second lieutenant!"
Thinking of the past scenes, Tang Dao couldn't help but burst into tears.
No matter before or now, he will never fight alone!
"Although I don't know when, Comrade Tang Dao, you were baptized by our party's advanced ideas, but through your performance on the battlefield and caring for the people around your station this year, you have fully met the standards of a party member." Cheng
The brigade commander looked at the tears flashing in Tang Dao's eyes, his face moved slightly, and he couldn't help but feel a little excited.
"As appointed by the superior party committee, our division's party committee has decided to admit you, Comrade Tang Dao, into the party. The introducers for joining the party are the political commissar and me!" Brigadier Cheng stretched out his hand and shook Tang Dao's hands tightly. "Comrade Tang Dao, on behalf of our division's party committee, I welcome you.
You join.”
"Thank you to the party organization for trusting me. I will definitely live up to the trust of the party and the people and make new achievements on the battlefield!" Tang Dao nodded repeatedly.
The political commissar is the second-ranked person in the 921 Division, and Brigadier Cheng is also the fifth-ranked tycoon. Having these two personally serve as introducers to join the party puts Tang Dao at a high enough level.
Development within the army also has sufficient benefits.
"What about my identity? Is it necessary to at least announce it to the senior commanders of the regiment?" Tang Dao asked.
"I came to you today mainly to talk about this matter." Brigadier Cheng waved his hand.
"The leaders held a meeting last night, and the focus was not on whether you can join the party. That decision can be made in almost a minute or two. What the leaders discussed was your identity and the ownership of the Four Troops under your command.
After discussion, the leaders unanimously decided that in view of the current situation of the Anti-Japanese War and the changes in the domestic political situation, in order not to stimulate the nerves of some people and damage the Anti-Japanese United Front, your identity as a party member can only be kept secret for the time being. There are only a few people in the group army.
The main commanders know about it, and only two commanders and I of our 921 Division know about it.
You will continue to lead the Fourth Army Regiment under the direct jurisdiction of the Second Theater Command to fight against Japan on the North China battlefield. I will act as your liaison. If you have any ideas or suggestions, please contact me directly.
When the time is right, you and the officers and soldiers of the Fourth Army Regiment will return to the group army!"
"Okay! I obey the decision of the party organization. In addition, I hope that the organization will evaluate the several chief officers of my regiment and gradually absorb them into the party." Tang Dao nodded.
"I also listened to Ye Chenghuan's report last night. Under your influence, they also have this tendency. When the right opportunity comes, I will serve as an introducer to join the party and attract them to join the party." Brigadier Cheng said with a smile.
With the addition of Tang Dao and the Four Lines Regiment, the strength of the Eightyth Army has been greatly enhanced. It is not as simple as adding an additional infantry regiment.
Don't tell me, Brigadier Cheng's intuition is really right.
"I would like to report to the party organization on the development of our Four Lines Group over the past year," Tang Dao said.
At first, Brigadier Cheng didn't pay much attention to it. After all, he was very familiar with the Four Elements Group. Tang Dao had always been very upright and did not hide anything from him. Even if he didn't fully understand the actual establishment and personnel of the Four Elements Group, he probably had an idea in his mind.
But when I actually heard Tang Dao 1510 tell me the organization and equipment of the Four Lines Regiment, even considering Brigadier Cheng's temperament, he couldn't help but open his mouth.
A cavalry battalion has 500 officers and men, 1,000 horses, 200 colts, and more than 400 reserve cavalry not included in the establishment.
War horses were an absolute rarity in this era, not to mention the price of a war horse as high as 100 yuan. Because of the strict blockade of North China by the Japanese army, even if you had money, you might not be able to buy a war horse trained on the grasslands.
The cavalry battalion of the Si Xing Regiment can at least rival the size of a Japanese cavalry regiment.
And looking at its equipment, ordinary equipment such as carbines and sabers are not included. There are also mortars and light and heavy machine guns. This is completely in the rhythm of mounting the horse to charge and dismounting to fight in the field.
That is to say, in the Taihang Mountains, the importance of the cavalry battalion cannot be reflected due to the terrain. If it is placed on the plains of Hebei Province, it will definitely be a highly mobile army that can attack battlefields dozens of miles away at any time.
Mobile support.
Hammer has already proven on the training field that four legs are far superior to two-legged creatures in terms of speed.
But this is not the most luxurious one. The most powerful weaponry of the Four Lines Regiment is undoubtedly the artillery battalion!
A mountain artillery company has 300 officers and soldiers and is equipped with 12 Bofors mountain guns!
A heavy forced company has 300 officers and soldiers and is equipped with 12 150mm heavy forced guns!
An air defense company, with personnel about to reach 1,200 people, has 36 40mm anti-aircraft guns and 24 4-mounted 7mm anti-aircraft machine guns. All 20mm anti-aircraft guns will be eliminated to the infantry battalion, and the infantry battalion artillery company will have a high-level and flat dual-purpose 20mm
Machine gun platoon?
This kind of thing is not allowed to survive. The entire 683 brigade has more than 10,000 people. Not to mention the 40mm anti-aircraft guns, there are not even more than 6 20mm machine guns.
Let’s not talk about the four major infantry battalions. They are the fist troops of the Four Lines Regiment. Regardless of the equipment, their performance has left a deep impression on the senior leaders of both China and Japan.
Now as long as we deal with the Si Xing Regiment, the Japanese army will not dare to go out unless they send out an infantry division.
As for a newly established mountain infantry company, the personnel count exceeds 300. The entire company is equipped with semi-automatic rifles, 60 MP38 submachine guns, 9 MG42 light machine guns, and 9 60mm rifles.
That's it, and it's said to be a light infantry company suitable for mountain combat!
Also, what the hell is an MG42 machine gun? Brigadier Cheng, who thinks he has some knowledge of firearms from various countries, has never heard of this model.
"I haven't heard of it. You'll know when I try a few shots later," Tang Daoxuan's Brigadier Cheng was dazzled.
On the first day of the new year, the chief officers of the Fourth Army Regiment would go to each battalion and company to express condolences and meet with ordinary officers and soldiers to have a close chat.
Since Brigadier Cheng was walking and chatting with him, Tang Dao simply took Brigadier Cheng with him to the Fourth Camp.
Seeing the regimental commander personally coming, together with the brigade commander of the 683rd brigade, which officer and soldier of the fourth battalion would not be honored?
In Shi Hao's original words: "Let me just say it! The commander is always thinking about the old brothers!"
As a result, after visiting each company, Tang Tuanzuo actually took people to the shooting range again.
An infantry squad carried its own gun and the newly issued MG42 machine gun, and unleashed a burst of firepower. The crazy whip smashed a wooden target more than 200 meters away.
The crazy rate of fire made Brigadier Cheng Da, who had seen many big scenes, feel his head buzzing.
After Brigadier Cheng personally conducted the test firing, his vest was covered in cold sweat.
Not only does it have an amazing rate of fire, this light machine gun is extremely cleverly designed and can quickly change the barrel. It can even be used as a heavy machine gun to a certain extent, but its entire gun body and bipod are just that. Weighs 11kg.
Imagine that an infantry company has 9 "heavy machine guns". What will it be like?
If an enemy dares to charge without hesitation, facing the firepower network constructed by this kind of machine gun, they will simply commit suicide in line.
He thought about how strong the Four Lines Regiment's combat power was, but when this so-called squad light machine gun appeared, famous generals who had experienced the battlefield also knew that the current Four Lines Regiment's combat effectiveness was probably higher than that of those who participated in the Battle of Zhongtiao Mountain a few years ago. The four-line group fighting has taken it to a new level.
Just this infantry squad can completely withstand the Japanese attacks of two infantry squadrons without destroying the light machine gun fire points!
"How many rounds of ammunition does such a machine gun need in a battle?" Brigadier Cheng looked at Tang Dao with hope.
"In normal level battles, 2,000 rounds of ammunition are required, and the rest of the infantry squad will help carry the bullets. But if we encounter a large-scale battle like the Japanese New Year's Day Offensive, the principle is that each machine gun needs to be equipped with 10,000 rounds of ammunition, and the infantry battalion will advance with it. We carry it with our baggage company." Tang Dao knew what Brigadier Cheng was thinking and could only tell the truth.
"Forget it, our 921 Division cannot afford to raise such a gold-eating beast." Brigadier Cheng's disappointment was palpable.
He could ask Tang Dao to support him with some of these new machine guns, but Brigadier Cheng himself knew that even if Tang Dao was one of his own, he could not ask others to supply him with bullets. That would be too outrageous.
"After one month, I can provide our division with 30 of these machine guns and 300,000 rounds of ammunition, but due to the development of our regiment, we need our division to provide 300 barrels of oil in exchange." Tang Dao said with a smile.
"Haha! Then it's settled, I agree on behalf of the teacher." Brigadier Cheng was delighted.
In order to welcome Tang Dao, a new party member, the headquarters also promised that if Tang Dao and the Four Lines Group have any difficulties, they can raise them, and the headquarters will find a way to solve them if they can.
Anxian County is located on a high loess slope and has low grain output. However, due to its geographical advantages, it has a small oil field and supporting refinery. Gasoline and diesel are not a rare commodity, and have always been one of the most important sources of financial revenue for the Eightyth Army. one.
But what really made Brigadier Cheng Da open his mouth was not the current combat strength of the Four Elements Regiment.
It's not even the military manufacturing capability currently possessed by the Si Xing Tuan.
Yes, the armament factory built by the Si Xing Regiment with that large cave as its core was very impressive, with hundreds of various machine tools, even a layman like Brigadier Cheng was dazzled by it.
The military factory technician team with Teacher Xiao He as the core has more than 300 people, and there are more than a thousand mature technical workers.
The monthly production capacity is 1,000 pistols, 1,000 rifles, 50 machine guns, 30 small-caliber mortars, 5,000 rounds of artillery shells, and 300,000 rounds of various bullets. The production capacity is jaw-dropping.
But the premise of these production capabilities must be on the basis of money and materials.
When he heard that Tang Dao had close cooperation with a large foreign arms dealer, and also had a company in the United States that could earn nearly 100 million U.S. dollars a year, Brigadier Cheng almost went to heaven without excitement.
Perhaps this is the reason why the strength of the Four Elements Group continues to skyrocket!
"How can the money earned by your company be transferred back to China?" Brigadier Cheng asked cautiously.
"If you can't transfer it back, the U.S. government is not a fool. It will easily let the money you earn go abroad." Tang Dao shook his head.
Brigadier Cheng's heart suddenly sank. If the money he earned cannot be brought back to China to use for football, the 80th Army cannot go to the United States to fight against Japan!
"However, it is still possible to use money to purchase corresponding supplies from the United States and then transport them back to the country."
"I'm warning you, I have a heart problem. If your baby scares you into something, your baby will become the brigade commander of my 683 brigade." Brigadier Cheng almost died due to Tang Dao's heavy breathing.
Swear.
"Bah! Bah! It's Chinese New Year, Brother Cheng, please say something good." Tang Dao was extremely superstitious. "By the way, I will buy you some medicine from the United States in a while. Remember to take it on time."
"Why, you don't want to come to our 683rd Brigade so much! You're worried that something will happen to me." Brigadier Cheng laughed and said.
Perhaps, only Tang Dao in this world knows that this famous general would leave the country and people he loved due to heart problems at the age of less than 60.
Tang Dao has even commissioned Laura to set up a drug research laboratory in the United States, specializing in the research and development of various epidemic vaccines and cardiovascular drugs.
At this time, there are still nearly ten years left before we completely break up with the American Cowboys, which should be enough time.
At noon that day, with Tantai Mingyue cooking, Tang Dao treated Cheng, Wang, and Xu to a private banquet for a simple lunch before sending them off back to their base.
Not only did Tang Dao deliver all the firearms and ammunition he promised, he also delivered an additional 3,000 kilograms of pork, saying that he would treat all the officers and men of the 683rd Brigade to eat dumplings.
This almost made the three happy people cry.
What is the most painful thing in the world? It is just one step away but still out of reach?
No, no, I have pork but I can’t carry it away.
The three of them led three guard platoons, and the total with the three of them was only 142 people. Did each person carry more than 20 kilograms of pork and 20 kilograms of personal equipment on his back?
Only then did Tang Dao smile and ask someone to bring over 30 pack horses and deliver them with the horses and their meat.
The three generals, who would later become famous throughout the army, almost missed Comrade Tang Dao and surrounded him and beat him up!
The Chinese New Year has to make people burst into tears, right?
Anyway, they would never admit it, which is touching.
