All military positions in the soon-to-be-established Si Xing Regiment will be determined by the regiment headquarters. As soon as this news came out, the independent battalion, no, to be precise, the entire Si Xing Regiment was in a state of excitement.
Not to mention a group of company commanders headed by Li Jijin who ganged up to join the battalion headquarters, even Zhuang Shisan and Guo Shouzhi came to Tang Dao specifically to gossip.
After all, three infantry battalions means that there are only three battalion commanders, and the rest remain at the same company level. This actually doesn’t matter. Anyone who knows the candidates for the three battalion commanders knows who they are. The key is that each company will
Which battalion should I go to? Or can I be directly subordinated to the regiment headquarters? Also, should my military rank be upgraded as the tide goes up?
After they have been promoted, won't their brothers be able to take advantage of the opportunity to fill in the gaps? After several battles, the brothers who have worked hard must not be rewarded? Even if the officers are not thinking about themselves, they have to think about their brothers, right?
Faced with this situation, Tang Dao was helpless.
You want to talk about this group of guys! Let them go into battle to fight the Japanese, there is no ambiguity, but when it comes to promotion, their eyes also light up.
But this idea of "official status" is left over from the feudal society that lasted for more than two thousand years. Why did ancient people study hard? Wasn't it also to find a wife and a son?
Even though there is no shortage of talented people who want to show their ambitions, if they don't reach that position, no matter how talented or ambitious they are, they still have to stand in awe. Why, you, a small county magistrate, can lead the whole country to take off!
Let alone this era, even if we push it back a hundred years, that kind of thinking has not changed much.
Moreover, in such troubled times, rising military rank not only means being able to shine, it also means being able to control more troops and kill more Japanese.
"Tell them all to get lost! I have a headache now." Facing a group of enthusiastic foot-picking men, Tang Dao never wanted to beep with Li Jijin and others after dealing with Guo Shouzhi and Zhuang Shisan.
Yes, Erya was asked to go out and issue an eviction order.
"By the way, and also, tell those guys, they are still guilty. Whoever is so good comes to talk to me before the establishment is announced. Let alone promotion, it is still unclear whether he can keep his position."
"Yes!" Erya looked at Battalion Commander Tang Da, who was rubbing his temples, and couldn't help but snicker.
This was a rare moment of worry for him as a commander, but expanding from a battalion to a regiment was also a happy worry! Anyway, Erya was very happy in her heart, as there would be more brothers fighting Japanese soldiers in the future.
Seeing the smile on Erya's face, Tang Dao's heart moved slightly. Erya had been with him for a long time. He used to be a small soldier who shivered even when shooting, but now he has become a veteran who obeys orders and has a clear and flexible mind.
, is a material that can be made.
"Erya, the regiment headquarters will definitely expand the communications platoon. How about you become the deputy platoon leader?" Tang Dao said casually.
Unexpectedly, Erya's face changed drastically and she immediately stood up: "No, sir, I am willing to be your signal soldier by your side, or someone can wash your socks and clothes for you!"
"Ahem, it's still raining heavily! Where did that kid go?" Hearing what Erya said, Tang Dao couldn't help but blush slightly.
It's not that he hasn't changed at all since he came to this era, at least in terms of personal matters, he has definitely fallen.
In another time and space, even if he had been promoted to captain, he would basically handle his personal affairs by himself. However, after becoming a battalion commander, all these trivial matters would be taken care of by Erya. Is this a sign of the unhealthy tendencies of the old army?
The belt is crooked?
"That little bald kid is so clumsy that even his own clothes and socks are smelly. Sir, why do you still expect him?" Erya curled her lips. "At this moment, he should have gone to Captain Gu to follow the cow again.
2. Practice shooting! He dreams of becoming the sniper you mentioned, sir."
"This little guy seems to be annoying me! He even asked you to be a lobbyist." Tang Dao smiled slightly. "Okay, I will take advantage of this expansion to let him go to the special operations team to train. But you
You have to tell him that I don’t have the final say to join the special operations team alone, it has to be assessed, and if he doesn’t do it, tell him to come back and work as a communications soldier for me for two more years.”
"Sir, it turns out you know everything!" Erya was stunned for a moment.
"Haha! How can you outsmart me with your little thoughts? I'm afraid that as soon as the news comes out that our independent camp is about to expand, that silly boy from Heavy Rain will come looking for you! He doesn't dare to say it himself, so he begs you to say it.
If he doesn't agree! He will definitely ask for Mingyue!" Tang Dao laughed. "However, you are going a bit too far. You are still afraid that I will think he is too young and start talking about dreams with me. This kid
, is quite discerning and has found a good lobbyist.”
Tang Dao was also praising his personal communications soldier in disguise.
Tang Dao has seen many soldiers in his past life. Some are rough, such as Heizi, some are cunning, such as Li Jiujin, and some are calm, such as Leng Feng. They have different temperaments, but quiet soldiers like Erya
, but there are very few, and they are extremely thoughtful, and can handle the trivial matters around Tang Dao very well.
That is, when he is silent, you can completely ignore his existence, but if you think about it carefully, he has done a lot of things. In this regard, I am afraid that Tantai Mingyue cannot compare with him.
Of course, it may be because Tantai Mingyue is also very busy. Although Tantai Mingyue does not have a military position, she still serves as the captain of the medical team. With her here, who in the camp would dare not give her face, transportation, etc.
, the medical team was followed first, and refined food was given to the wounded first. Therefore, those seriously injured soldiers were protected to the greatest extent by the independent battalion.
Since the evacuation to Jiangbei, the mortality rate of the more than 100 seriously injured patients treated by the medical team has dropped significantly. From five or six people who died on a heartbreaking day, to only one in the next few days. Up to now, the medical team has
The mortality rate of severely wounded soldiers was only 30%, far lower than the average for this era.
In addition to the help of a large amount of drugs seized by the Japanese army, Tantai Mingyue's efforts cannot be underestimated.
Up to now, the chief officer Tang Dao may be the most prestigious person in the entire independent battalion, but when it comes to respect, Captain Tantai Mingyue may not be lower than Tang Dao.
This is the result of her own efforts and has nothing to do with whether she is Tang Dao's lover or not.
Tang Dao, who comes from the future, does not have the idea that women should stay at home to support their husbands and raise children, or that women must depend on men. His philosophy on love and marriage is: 'Achieve each other's success! Do what you want to do!'
And this concept may be what emerging women like Tantai Mingyue of this era who are impacted by the New Culture Movement's ideological trends need most.
Love begins with looks and ends with talent. I'm afraid that's exactly what they say.
Tantai Mingyue, who fell in love with Tang Dao because of his heroic appearance on the battlefield, may have experienced the so-called love after being together for a long time.
Thinking of his lover who was so close but not seen for two days, Tang Dao's eyes instantly became gentler.
"Sir, are you still going to let me leave? The heavy rain is about to leave. If I leave again, the new soldiers will not know your habits." Erya lowered his head and said, interrupting Tang Dao's thoughts.
Tang Dao couldn't see his face clearly, but he could also hear his reluctance.
Everyone else was thinking about 'running for official position', but this one was better. He didn't want to leave. Tang Dao had helplessness on his face and waved his hand: "If you don't want to leave, then don't leave, but you have to hold on to the position of deputy communications platoon leader. Wait.
That day, the communications platoon was promoted to a communications company. You have to be the platoon leader. If you have nothing else to do, go and learn radio and telephone operations from the veteran communications soldiers. Go and chase people! By the way, let Battalion Commander Lei come to my place. I guess he
My head hurts so much right now."
As soon as Erya went out, sure enough, not long after, there was a flurry of footsteps hurriedly leaving outside.
A man like Chief Tang who is so ruthless that he even whips himself has always been true to his words. It really pissed him off that he couldn't even keep his current position. How could he not have seen a veteran like Li Jijin decisively turn around and run away!
Not long after, Lei Xiong opened the door curtain and walked in.
"How about it, Brother Lei, isn't it wonderful to be surrounded by people who are smoking and talking about things!" Tang Dao saw Lei Xiong's face was filled with bitterness, but he couldn't help but feel happy.
There were quite a few old brothers in Sihang camp, and there were not only twenty but also a dozen people who wanted to come and find him.
"Sir, you're trying to trick me!" Lei Xiong sighed.
"If I know that it's so difficult to be the deputy leader, I might as well just stay in my one-third of an acre of land like before, and I'll see who can bother me."
"Versailles, isn't it?" Tang Dao smiled even brighter. "If Commander Xie knew that Brother Lei still had this idea, he might have sent a telegram to scold you."
"What is Versailles?" Lei Xiong was stunned by Tang Dao's sudden new term.
Tang Dao is good at everything, but the new words appear frequently, which makes people feel that they are not from the same world as him.
