On the night of Zheng Yi's return to the camp of the military station, the defenders in Wuchang City, under the leadership of the general Liu Yuchun, suddenly opened the Zhongxiao Gate of the northeast city gate and launched a tragic breakthrough battle. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Ye Ting's independent regiment, which had just completed the replenishment of troops, was just guarding outside the Zhongxiao Gate, and in the two siege battles launched by the Northern Expeditionary Army before, Ye Ting and Liu Yuchun were opposed.

The machine guns and grenades used by both sides lit up half of the city, and the screams and roars shook the whole city, and when the siege commander Chen Keyu brought in reinforcements, Liu Yuchun, who had suffered heavy casualties, had already thrown down more than 1,000 corpses and retreated to the city, and Ye Ting's independent regiment once again suffered more than half of the casualties.

The battle report was passed to Zheng Yi, Zheng Yi didn't need to do much analysis to see that the defenders in the city were on the verge of running out of ammunition and food, unless they learned from those ancient famous generals who treated the common people as two-legged sheep and slaughtered their concubines as dry food, otherwise, the defenders who were short of materials would definitely not survive for a month under the increasing psychological pressure.

Since most of the First Army and the Seventh Army had already left for the battlefield in Jiangxi Province, the Northern Expeditionary Force of the Fourth Army, which had achieved great achievements, had increased dramatically from two divisions and one independent regiment to four divisions, and the Fourth Army, which was unwilling to be controlled by others, established its own logistics system, and the workload of Zheng Yi's Wuhan Military Station was greatly reduced, allowing it to concentrate on the second phase of military training, and the structure of the garrison regiment gradually took shape.

October 13, 5:40 a.m.

The special train from the Chenzhou Material Transfer Station of the Military Station Headquarters slowly stopped on the railway line at the entrance of the Wuhan Military Station, and the officers and men of the two battalions who had been waiting for a long time immediately blocked the entire area.

In the middle of the train, a group of officers and soldiers walked down, and several orthodox figures ran out of the team, and came to Zheng Yi to line up neatly, saluting excitedly, and the eldest Han Shouren stepped forward and reported loudly:

"Report to the commander, Duan Xuan, the former adjutant of the garrison battalion, Han Shouren, Wang Huchen, and Zhao Jiayao, the company commanders, successfully completed their studies, and obtained the graduation certificates of the Infantry Section, Cavalry Section, and Engineer Section of the Whampoa Military Academy on October 4, respectively.

Zheng Yi couldn't help frowning a little when he saw that there were three old brothers missing from the queue, thought about it and didn't ask, and solemnly returned to Han Shouren and the others, and then said, "Congratulations to the brothers on returning from their studies, let's go back to the building!" ”

"Yes!"

The old brothers who had returned from their studies saluted again, put down their hands and rushed to a group of old brothers who had been separated for a long time, hugged each other, and began to fight again.

The mature and steady Han Shouren came to Zheng Yi's side and explained in a low voice: "Three days before graduation, Zhang Zhishan and the three of them suddenly disappeared, and they didn't see anyone at the dinner party in the evening. ”

"Huh!? That's it! ”

Zheng Yi was very surprised when he heard this, pondered for a moment, and said his inference: "It is estimated that he was secretly sent to the north to carry out special tasks, this situation also happened on the eve of the graduation of the third batch of cadets of the military academy, I have not paid attention to this aspect of things, but I remember that before the Northern Expedition, the General Headquarters had formulated a corresponding secret plan. ”

Han Shouren nodded slightly: "The subordinates also guessed so, so you can rest assured." ”

Zheng Yi patted Han Shouren on the shoulder, returned a salute to a young officer who had trotted all the way to salute respectfully, and took the order from his hands and turned it on.

Li Zhao, the political commissar behind him, immediately raised the lantern, stood on the side and secretly glanced at the content of the order, and immediately looked at the young officer in front of him vigilantly.

Zheng Yi folded the order and put it in his pocket, stepped forward, and shook hands with the young officer: "Captain Xu Zhilin, welcome to join our Wuhan Military Station, it's been a hard journey!" ”

Xu Zhilin, who was wearing black-framed myopia glasses, was stunned for a moment when he saw Zheng Yi so kind, and hurriedly thanked him, then took out a file and a letter from the briefcase he was carrying, and said: "The file contains a detailed list of these materials, and the letter was entrusted to you by Uncle Zhou Shi. ”

Zheng Yi was slightly stunned, took it and handed the file to Cao Mancheng on the side, opened the letter and read it quickly, quickly put away the letter, forced the discomfort in his heart, and smiled at Xu Zhilin:

"Haha, my brother's arrival can help me a lot, I will immediately call Uncle Yu Shi when I go back, and recommend my brother to serve as the deputy station supervisor of the Wuhan Military Station, and concurrently serve as the commander of the fourth battalion of the military station garrison regiment!"

The brothers were shocked when they heard this, Xu Zhilin was surprised and apprehensive, and his words trembled: "This...... Isn't that good? Brother Yu is also a freshly graduated fourth-term student of Whampoa, and the ...... of the manager department Uncle Zhou Shishu told me to learn from the virtuous brother, work diligently in the position of quartermaster and staff officer, and go all out to support the work of the virtuous brother......"

"Hey, Uncle Zhou Shi is spurring and encouraging us, why doesn't my brother understand, haha!"

Zheng Yi interrupted Xu Zhilin's words, his mentality had returned to normal in this matter, and he enthusiastically pulled Xu Zhilin over: "If my brother's ability is not good, Uncle Zhou will definitely not send you over to help me, so it's decided!" Li Feng—"

"Here!"

Acting battalion commander Li Feng hurriedly pushed away the happy Duan Xuan, and ran to Zheng Yi to stand up and salute.

Zheng Yi gave an order: "You immediately lead your second battalion to report to Lao Cao, responsible for delivering the materials on the special train to the warehouse of the big battalion, Teng Yichun's recruit training camp 1,200 local recruits to assist you, you must finish it before ten o'clock in the morning, and the special train will leave on time at ten o'clock." ”

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

After Li Feng finished answering, he immediately ran into the camp to assemble the team.

Zheng Yi called Dong Zongzhuo, a political officer, and the two acting battalion commanders in charge of vigilance over for a while, and took the excited Xu Zhilin and Han Shouren and other four old brothers back to the regiment headquarters.

Not long after entering the camp, Duan Xuan ran to Zheng Yi's side and asked nervously, "Boss, you didn't have an adjutant after I left, right?" ”

"What do you want to do?" Zheng Yi asked as he walked.

Duan Xuan bent down and followed suit: "Hehe! I'm thinking about this little carefully, big brother, can you still not know? To tell you the truth, I want to return to you as an adjutant, you see this chaos, don't say that I am not at ease, and the brothers are not at ease! ”

Zheng Yi couldn't help but be happy, seeing the brothers looking at him eagerly, he thought about it and stopped, and told Duan Xuan: "From today on, you will serve as the captain and company commander of the special service company directly under our regiment, and within three days, the brothers of the whole regiment will start a big competition, and I will allow you to select one hundred brothers from them to be incorporated into the special service company." ”

"In addition, I will assign you another political instructor and twenty technical leaders, issue you the most advanced weapons and equipment, and concentrate officers above the deputy battalion level to formulate a strict training plan for the special service company."

"You, a graduate of the Fourth Cavalry Department of Whampoa, do you have the confidence to train the special service company into a pacesetter of the whole regiment within half a year?"

Duan Xuan was overjoyed: "Don't worry, big brother, I can't beat me!" ”

The brothers laughed when they saw this, and Xu Zhilin was amazed.

Zheng Yi turned to the brothers who were in a half-circle: "I originally wanted to hold a military meeting in the evening to announce it, but since Duan Xuan has started, I will briefly say ......"

"Han Shouren has always been calm and steady, conscientious, and deeply respected by the brothers, so I recommend Lao Han to be the deputy head of my regiment major, before being admitted to the fourth phase of Whampoa, several of you have the rank of either lieutenant or captain, and it is normal for you to come back and be promoted to the next level."

"Wang Huchen has a dense mind, a solid foundation, is diligent and active during his advanced studies in the military academy, has a wide range of knowledge, and has been repeatedly praised by instructors of various subjects, so I recommend Wang Huchen to serve as the chief of staff of our regiment major."

"Zhao Jiayao is an outstanding graduate of the fourth phase of the engineering department, and began to teach himself civil engineering when he was in the Guangzhou garrison camp.

"Other appointments will be announced at a military meeting tonight, so I won't say more."

The brothers were overjoyed and surrounded Zheng Yi to thank him, and Li Zhao was also very happy, knowing that the reorganization of the department had finally begun, and the work below would enter a new period.

At eight o'clock in the evening, all officers above the platoon commander level of the regiment gathered in the compound of the regiment headquarters to hold the first military meeting since the establishment of the garrison regiment.

Zheng Yi read out the telegram of approval sent by the Political Department of the National Revolutionary Army and the Headquarters of the Military Station in the afternoon, officially announcing that Lieutenant Colonel Li Shao would be the political commissar of the Wuhan Military Station and Garrison Regiment, Major Han Shouren would be the deputy head of the garrison regiment, Major Wang Huchen would be the chief of staff of the regiment, and Major Cao Mancheng would be the intelligence staff officer.

In the warm applause, Li Shao, Han Shouren, Wang Huchen and Cao Mancheng, who were in straight uniforms, stood up one after another, solemnly saluted Zheng Yi on the rostrum and the surrounding officers, and ordered the following teams to climb the three steps in front of the main hall and sit on Zheng Yi's left and right.

Li Zhao, who had been prepared for a long time, was still extremely excited, he took out the speech script in his pocket and stood up to speak, first reviewing the course of the headquarters from the beginning of the First Eastern Crusade to the Northern Expedition, highly praising the merits of the supreme commander Zheng Yi, and then stating the main tasks at this stage, and finally putting forward many encouragements to all the officers.

Although Li Zhao's speech was a bit of a crepe flavor, it won warm applause from the audience, and Li Zhao was also very satisfied, because Li Zhao, who shouldered the heavy trust of the organization, was deeply aware of:

Zheng Yi and Li Shao will work closely together to take advantage of this reorganization opportunity to formally establish an important party branch to assist Zheng Yi to further purify the team and carry out political education and propaganda mobilization according to the established plan.

In time, the Wuhan Military Station Garrison Regiment will surely become an armed force under the leadership of the party!
