Since ancient times, life is too short and time is fleeting, and unconsciously, there is only a short tail left in July of 42.

On 29 July, the sun was shining brightly in Ramgarh, and the ships and people were gathering on the southwest pier of the training camp, and the headquarters of Chief Du finally arrived at the training camp after nearly three months of arduous trekking in the savage mountains.

On the same day, Commander Du led more than 21,000 officers and men directly under the Fifth Army and the newly formed 22nd Division to withdraw into the Savage Mountain, and so far, only 13,000 officers and men have arrived at the training camp alive...... It's not hard to imagine the dangers!

But no matter what, the soldiers finally arrived at the training camp!

As long as you live, there is hope!

As long as you live, you can fight back, and there is hope for a shame!

Changed into brand-new British military uniforms, and the soldiers with yellow and thin faces still walked into the training camp with their heads held up and their chests held up, their faces inevitably had a sad color, but the sonorous steps exuded a resolute and resolute atmosphere!

Chief Du's headquarters arrived, the training camp was about to start, and there were more meetings.

As the head of the direct secret service group, Li Siwei can often attend meetings as an observer, and he is busy all of a sudden.

The first two meetings were meetings to sum up the experience of the defeat in the Burmese war, and the atmosphere was a bit heavy, and even Chief Du was often choked up and speechless when he spoke at the meeting.

After the two meetings, Li Siwei only felt uncomfortable in his heart, but fortunately, the subsequent meetings were much easier.

A few more meetings were held, the time was already in August, and the charter of the training camp was completely finalized.

On 2 August, when the sun was shining brightly in Ramga, the generals of the 66 th Regiment at all levels gathered in the conference room of the regiment headquarters, all of them sitting upright and solemn, and they all looked at Li Siwei who was sitting upright on the main seat with blazing eyes.

"Brothers,"

Li Siwei slowly swept over the generals with a solemn expression, "According to the order of the headquarters, our unit will be reorganized into the U.S. Infantry Regiment, and the number will be 'The First Independent Infantry Corps of the Expeditionary Force'. ”

As he spoke, Li Siwei paused, opened the document in front of him and looked at it, "Maybe many brothers don't know the specific establishment of the U.S. Armored Infantry Regiment...... Here's a document, if you don't know, you can circulate it. ”

As he spoke, Li Siwei picked up the document and handed it to Zheng Sanyang, who was sitting on the left-hand side.

"Commander......"

The generals shouted impatiently, "What else is going to be circulated?" Just talk about it! ”

"Okay!"

Li Siwei nodded, and looked around at the generals again, "The establishment of this U.S. armored infantry regiment will refer to the U.S. infantry regiment, and it will have three infantry battalions under its jurisdiction, as well as a regimental headquarters company, a special service platoon, a search platoon, a mortar company, a combat defense artillery company, a communications company, an automobile company, an animal force transportation company, and a health team. Among them, the infantry battalion has three infantry companies, a battalion headquarters company, a heavy machine gun company, a combat defense platoon, and a communications platoon......"

Li Siwei will compile a detailed explanation, and the generals will be overjoyed after listening.

"Turtle's, and the anti-aircraft artillery company? How many cannons are there? ”

"Hehe, there's a car for us to ......"

"There is also a company of heavy machine guns! It's a comfortable ......."

"Regiment commander, according to this establishment, our regiment must not have more than 3,000 people? Hehe, that's really strong......"

Indeed, according to the new establishment, there will be more than 3,100 men in an infantry regiment and more than 15,000 in a division, and the entire army will have more than 50,000 troops based on the existing two divisions of the expeditionary force and the troops directly under the headquarters.

However, the total number of troops withdrawn to the training camp is only more than 20,000 people, and there are thousands of wounded and sick among them, so the shortage of personnel in various departments is quite serious!

If the lack of editing is serious, you have to put up the shelf first!

"Brothers,"

Seeing that the generals were talking endlessly, Li Siwei had no choice but to raise his hand and press it, with a solemn expression, "The establishment of the regiment has changed a lot, and your positions will also be changed accordingly...... This matter should be agreed upon as soon as possible and reported to the headquarters! ”

As he spoke, Li Siwei paused, "According to the establishment, there are chief and deputy officers at the battalion and company levels, so there are still some shortages of officer posts in the regiment, so if you have suitable candidates, just put them forward." ”

"Hmmm......"

Hearing this, all the generals groaned.

"Commander,"

Huang Hua looked at Li Siwei and smiled, and was the first to break the silence, "Liu Tianfu is good!" ”

"Good!"

Li Siwei naturally didn't forget the agreement with Huang Hua, and nodded happily, "Liu Tianfu is one!" ”

Flipping through the notebook in front of him and writing down Liu Tianfu's name, Li Siwei raised his head and swept the rest of the generals, "What else?" ”

"Ren Chunxuan is not bad......"

"Xiong Wenlong can also do it......"

Huang Hua began, and the generals enthusiastically mentioned their names, and the atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became warm.

A meeting didn't end until sunset, and the camp was filled with the smell of food.

When the crowd dispersed, Li Siwei rubbed his temples and looked at Zheng Sanyang and Chen Huaili, "The name has been raised, let Tie Sheng call everyone over at night...... Let's choose someone! ”

It's not easy to fix it!

None of the brothers in the regiment are bad, but why do you have to choose them...... Why?

Throughout history, many teams that have been able to fight have not been defeated in the most difficult moments, but after victory!

Just like when Xiang Yu divided the kings, he was like the sky, but he thought, after the king, he actually fell into a rebellion and left, why?

Some people think he is unfair!

The matter of dividing the cake, the slightest carelessness will cause resentment, as has been the case since ancient times!

Therefore, Li Siwei has to take it seriously, and he must investigate them one by one in order to be convincing.

After that, Li Siwei handed the list to Zheng Sanyang, Shi Shiran got up and went to the door, "Rou'er and Ruolan came back late today, I have to go back and prepare the meal!" ”

Zheng Sanyang and Chen Huaili were stunned, and smiled bitterly when they met...... The head of the regiment really regarded this place as a place for the family to live!

Li Siwei has always felt that a place with a family is home, and it is rare to settle down here, how can you not live a good life?

Li Siwei went all the way back to the dormitory, first took out a basin to fetch water and came back, and then went to fetch food and came back.

On August 1, 42, our unit received an order to reorganize and reorganize into a U.S. Infantry Regiment, which is one step closer to a world-class unit...... I have always believed that my brothers are the most tenacious and hard-working soldiers in the world, and as long as they are equipped with the best equipment and the most arduous training, they will definitely become the best soldiers in the world!

Writing the last exclamation mark, Li Siwei put away the pen, gently dried the ink, slowly closed the booklet and put it away, and then took out a cigarette and stuffed it into his mouth, but as soon as he touched out the match, he heard Wu Ruolan's laughter ring outside the door, "Sister Rou'er, you said that our health team can get that...... Surgical lights not? ”

Hearing Wu Ruolan's voice getting closer and closer, Li Siwei hurriedly collected matches and cigarettes, got up and walked to the door.

"Silly girl,"

Ning Rou's laughter rang out at the door, "We're just the regimental health team, how can we get that thing?" ”

"It's the same,"

Wu Ruolan nodded wistfully, "There may not be electricity on the front line!" ”

With that, the two girls arrived at the door, and Li Siwei stood behind the door and looked at them with a smile, "How is the assessment?" ”

"What else do you need to say?"

Ning Rou smiled and nodded, but Wu Ruolan smiled proudly, "Those foreign doctors all said that Sister Rou'er's medical skills are good!" ”

"Yikes,"

Li Siwei pretended to look at Ning Rou in surprise, "It seems that I really picked up the treasure!" ”

As he spoke, Li Siwei waved his hand with a smile and made a gesture of please, "The water and food have been prepared, the two ladies will wash their hands first, and the meal will start immediately!" ”

Seeing this, the two women hurriedly saluted Li Siwei tacitly, smiling like a flower, "There is a husband of Lao!" ”

After that, the three of them looked at each other and laughed "poof......".

If life is too bland, then add some seasoning from time to time!

Dinner was as warm as ever, and after eating, the two women washed their feet with the water they washed their hands and lay down on the bed.

Li Siwei poured the foot-washing water and came back, explained to the two women, and went to the regiment headquarters.

Just as Li Siwei rushed to the conference room of the regiment headquarters, in a camp three or five miles away, the officers and men of the newly formed 22nd Division were hurriedly assembling on the training ground, and their expressions were heavy.

Outside the school grounds, Chief Du came slowly with his entourage, his steps heavy and his expression lonely.

"Junza ......"

Seeing this, Division Commander Liao hurriedly led a group of officers from the division headquarters to greet him, but he didn't know what to say when he shouted.

"Jianchu ......"

Chief Du stopped and looked at Senior Commander Liao, his eyes were a little red, and his voice was difficult, "I can't think of it...... I'm leaving...... I...... Unwilling! ”

"Junza ......"

Master Liao's eyes were also red, "Why?" That battle, Junzuo ......"

"Jian Chu!"

Chief Du shook his head weakly, "I...... I'm sorry...... O brothers who fell in the Savage Mountains! ”

As he spoke, Chief Du cheered up himself, pulled out his matching gun, handed it to Commander Liao with both hands, and his expression slowly became resolute, "I should have taken my brothers back to avenge the dead brothers and wash away the shame of the Fifth Army, but the military order is difficult to do!" I can only leave it to you, brothers...... Train well and fight back to Burma! ”

"Please rest assured!"

Division Commander Liao saluted with a "snap", stretched out his hands and took over Chief Du's gun.

"Good!"

Chief Du gently patted Commander Liao's shoulder, turned around, and slowly walked towards Dianjiangtai.

"Brothers!"

Standing on the platform, his eyes slowly swept over the familiar faces in the audience, and Chief Du's voice instantly moistened, "I...... I said I'd take you back...... But now, ...... I can't go......"

As he spoke, Chief Du's voice trembled, and he was already crying, "But...... But...... Don't forget the Savage Mountain...... Don't forget about those who poured in the ...... O brothers who fell in the Savage Mountain! You guys...... You have to be ...... Train well and be sure to ...... To fight back...... I'm going to fight back! The brothers in the Savage Mountains are ...... I'll leave it to you......"

As he spoke, Chief Du saluted the soldiers with a "snap", and he didn't take it back for a long time, letting the tears roll down!

All the soldiers silently looked at Chief Du who was in tears on the stage, and their eyes were already wet with tears.

They understood Chief Du's mood at this time...... In other words, no one would be willing to leave at this time!

If you lose, you have to win it back!

What's more, he was so unjustly defeated!

"Please rest assured!"

A voice suddenly shouted, "We'll definitely fight back!" ”

"Please rest assured! Please rest assured that ......"

Immediately, echoes rang out one after another, "We will definitely fight back!" Will definitely call back......"

The echoes finally converged into an earth-shattering cry, breaking through the night and drifting away with the night wind, "Fight back!" Hit back! Call back......"

The earth-shattering cry resounded through the camp of the newly formed 22nd Division, drifting far away, drifting through one camp after another, and into the ears of one soldier after another.

"Hit back! Hit back! Call back......"

The voice stirred in the hearts of one soldier after another, stirring...... Hit back! If you lose, you have to win back!

The shouts came faintly, and the camp of the 66th Regiment was instantly quiet, the soldiers who were talking and laughing closed their mouths, the soldiers who were busy standing in place, and the soldiers who were already lying on the field sat up suddenly...... They were all listening.

In the conference room of the regiment headquarters, Li Siwei also closed his mouth, listened silently, and slowly swept past the brothers who were being inspected for a long time, "Have you all heard?" ”

"I heard you!"

The brothers were stunned and agreed.

"Good!"

Li Siwei looked at them deeply, "Then remember it firmly!" Don't forget...... Why are you here? ”

"Yes!"

The generals suddenly agreed, with solemn expressions, "We are here for training, and training is to fight back!" Go back to Myanmar ......"

Sharpen the army Ramgarh just to fight back!

Go back to Burma, for the Yunnan-Burma international communication line, for the honor of the expeditionary force, for those dead brothers, for the white bones in the savage mountains!

Every brother is holding his back!

Chief Du was also holding back his strength in his heart, but he had to leave -- go back to Chongqing to report on his work.

The telegram said so, but he knew in his heart that this was going to ...... It's never going back!

Because, he knew, along with that telegram, there was another telegram -- the headquarters of the expeditionary force was abolished, and the expeditionary force in India was reorganized into the Indian garrison, with General Stilwell as the commander-in-chief, and the former commander of the expeditionary force command, Chief Luo, as the deputy commander-in-chief.

At the meeting of cadres at and above the regimental level held the next day, Li Siwei learned the news.

At this point, the 66th Regiment was renamed the First Independent Regiment of the Indian Army.

After the meeting, all kinds of equipment and materials were continuously transported into the barracks of various units of the Indian Army, including tanks, automobiles, mules and horses, anti-aircraft artillery, howitzers, light and heavy machine guns, submachine guns, and rifles...... The whole nine yards!

On the school ground of the 66th Regiment, all the officers and men looked at the mountain of equipment and smiled one by one...... Now you have everything, comfort!

Looking at the soldiers who were receiving the equipment, Li Siwei smiled brightly...... From now on, the brothers will never lose money on equipment again!

I have always believed that my brothers are the most tenacious and hard-working soldiers in the world, and as long as they are equipped with the best equipment and undergo the most arduous training, they will definitely become the best soldiers in the world...... We will finally usher in our own glory! Glory to the Chinese soldiers!

Looking at the simple smiling faces, Li Siwei thought silently in his heart!
