"Ren battalion commander takes advantage of the battle interval to train troops, which is deeply in line with the quality of a qualified commander. If the soldiers of the party-state can be like you, we will have a much better chance of winning the war against Japan! I will order all the troops to learn from you. I have here a manual for infantry drills, which can be used as a reference for the battalion commander when training in the future. Go back and continue to train the troops, and strive to train an elite army to contribute to the country. ”

When Ren Laifeng walked out of Tang Enbo's headquarters, he was still thinking about what Tang Enbo said to him. Seeing that he didn't make any excessive requests, Tang Enbo just asked him to train his troops diligently, train elite soldiers, and even elite soldiers who can win battles!

What does this mean? Ren Laifeng couldn't figure it out even if he broke his head. Is it Towneburg who values him? Not like. Townbury dislikes him? It doesn't seem to be. Forget it, if you don't understand it, you don't want to. Ren Laifeng simply shook his hand, let the training of the soldiers, we will train the troops! I don't believe that if you train the soldiers, you can still snatch it from me?

Since then, Ren Laifeng has been concentrating on training in the Flying Tiger Battalion. Not to mention, the infantry drill book given to him by Tang Enbo is really a practical military training syllabus for the army of this era. According to the above training, not to mention that we can train a strong combat division, at least the trained army can definitely meet the standards of the regular army.

Half a month has passed in the blink of an eye. On this day, Ren Laifeng was instructing the soldiers in military training on the training ground, and the orderly ran over to report that a herald from the group army headquarters had come. Ren Laifeng returned to the battalion headquarters to meet with the heralds and was told that the Third Army would move to Shaanzhou, western Henan from now on, and inform the Flying Tiger Battalion to prepare for opening within two days!

This is Tang Enbo's dumping method to drive Sun Tongxuan out of Zhengzhou!

The Flying Tiger Battalion belongs to the Third Group Army, and since the group army has been adjusted as a whole, the Flying Tiger Battalion will naturally have to be transferred. Ren Laifeng ordered the troops to stop training, pack up and prepare to march with the brigade the next day.

The Flying Tiger Battalion has been stationed in Zhengzhou for a period of time, and the troops are leaving, and there are really a lot of preparations that need to be made. All kinds of baggage equipment must be sorted out and packed, and all kinds of local economic exchanges must also be cleaned up in time. Debts owed to others must be repaid, and debts owed by others must be returned. You have to buy what you should buy, sell what you can't take away, and give away what you can't sell. With all this, can you be busy in a day?

Just when Ren Laifeng was dizzy and his eyes were green because of various things, Lin Xincheng, the deputy commander of the Flying Tiger Battalion, came to him.

"Battalion commander, are we really leaving?" As soon as the two met, Lin Xincheng asked a word that made Ren Laifeng inexplicable.

"Xincheng, it's not that we have to go, it's the entire group army that has to go. Our Flying Tiger Battalion is Mr. Sun's troops, and the Third Army is going to Shaanzhou to change its defense, so of course we have to follow. ”

Lin Xincheng looked left and right, signaling that the two of them should speak alone. Ren Laifeng waved his hand and drove everyone else out of the room. Lin Xincheng walked over, opened the door and looked out, locked the door, then turned around, took a few steps closer, looked at Ren Laifeng with a solemn expression, and said: "Battalion commander, you have always been the commander I admire, I have always said something in front of you, and I never hide it." ”

Ren Laifeng nodded. This is true, as long as it is necessary for Ren Laifeng to know, including the secret of the military commander, Lin Xincheng has not hidden it from him. It is precisely because of the existence of Lin Xincheng that in the past few years, the Flying Tiger Battalion has not only not been constrained by powerful organs such as military commands, but has obtained a lot of useful information from it. Looking at Lin Xincheng's appearance today, it seems that he has something important to say, and Ren Laifeng listened to him quietly.

"I don't agree with what you just said. Our Flying Tiger Battalion is not Sun Tongxuan's troops, we are the country's army. We are the national army, not anyone's private soldiers! ”

Ren Laifeng absolutely agrees with this, and he has always thought so in his heart. "Xincheng is right, go on."

Lin Xincheng seemed to be encouraged, took a deep breath and continued: "I remember you said more than once that our Flying Tiger Battalion is a force to fight devils, and our only mission is to resist the war, which is to kill devils, protect the country, and protect the people!" I have never forgotten your words! Today, Chongqing sent me a secret order, asking the Flying Tiger Battalion to break away from Sun Tongxuan and return to the central government! ”

Break away from Sun Tongxuan and return to the central government? Ren Laifeng was stunned. It's not that he is loyal to Sun Tongxuan, it's just that the news came too suddenly, and he was a little surprised.

"The central government must have also said that I should deal with it in case I don't follow, right? Hehe, we don't mention this. Submit to the center? It sounds like the Flying Tiger Camp is a bandit on Liangshan. I have no problem being in the Central Army, but if I do this, will people say behind my back that I am a traitor and a capitulator? ”

Does Ren Laifeng care about this? He was just making a gesture to Lin Xincheng through these words, and through Lin Xincheng's mouth, he said that he was not a traitor to seek glory. Sure enough, Lin Xincheng's reflection did not disappoint him at all.

"What traitor seeks glory? Sun Tongxuan, whose master is he? Our master is the country, the people, not the commander-in-chief! Didn't he Sun Tongxuan follow Han Fuqu to stand on his own and break away from Feng Yuxiang's system and stand on his own? There is also Sun Lianzhong, who is now also listening to the orders of the central government, and does not obey the dispatch of Mr. Feng. Who said they were traitors for glory? ”

"Half a month ago, you went to see Tang Enbo, which was a good start. There are so many division commanders and brigade commanders under Sun Tongxuan, and you are the only one that Commander Tang met alone. What does that mean? It shows that Chief Tang has also heard of you and our Flying Tiger Battalion! ”

"As long as you agree, I will send a telegram to Chongqing now, saying that the Flying Tiger Battalion is willing to obey the orders of the central government!"

Even if there is no such thing, the Flying Tiger Battalion will dare to disobey the orders of the central government? Ren Laifeng knew that although this was just a passing scene, it was a procedure that had to be taken for him and the Flying Tiger Battalion.

Two days later, the Third Army left Zhengzhou for Shaanzhou to change its defense, but the Flying Tiger Battalion stayed behind at this time. In this regard, Jiang Dingwen, the commander of the theater of operations, also called Sun Tongxuan and told Commander-in-Chief Sun that he had fallen in love with the Flying Tiger Battalion and wanted to leave the Flying Tiger Battalion in case it could be used at any time.

It's as simple as that. For the war zone commander Jiang Dingwen's half-order and half-joke, even if Sun Tongxuan was unwilling in his heart, at least on the surface, he happily agreed.

In order to show his innocence in this matter, Ren Laifeng wrote a letter, in which he said lightly: Actually, I don't want to stay, in fact, I want to go with you. Ask Commander-in-Chief Sun to go to the center of the table and ask for him to take someone with him.

It is said that Commander-in-Chief Sun sneered three times after reading the letter, and threw the letter on the face of the signal soldier who delivered the letter on the spot. At this point, Ren Laifeng and the Third Army officially ended their subordinate relationship, and the Flying Tiger Battalion entered the establishment of the Central Army.
