967. The Old Brothers Reunite

Sangou rushed back to the 305 regiment station with more than a dozen people and more than a dozen seeds from the old seventh company.

Sangou Xiucai doglegs, bamboo poles, radishes and other people, and after a while of heat with them, they slowly sat down and chatted with each other.

It turned out that some time ago, after the 1st Corps of the Ninth Theater surrounded the 106th Division in the Wanjialing area, the Japanese army sent a large number of reinforcements to rescue it.

In this regard, the Ninth Theater sent a request for help to the neighboring Third and Fifth Theaters, hoping that the guerrillas in the neighboring areas of northern Jiangxi could go over to help the Ninth Theater and jointly encircle and annihilate the 106th Division of the Japanese Army.

The reasons for this are complicated: First, these guerrillas are not under the jurisdiction of the field units in the theater, and most of them are under the jurisdiction of the Loyal and Righteous National Salvation Army.

Even the Ninth Theater also sent a request for help from the headquarters of the Loyal Salvation Army, and the headquarters of the Loyal Salvation Army also issued a notice, but most of the guerrillas did not obey the order as much as the field army, and they would not necessarily strictly implement this order.

First of all, the guerrillas are not like the regular army, and they are dependent on their superiors in terms of organization and provisions.

Most of them are self-sufficient, and they are less dependent on their superiors, and it is naturally difficult for their superiors to restrain and cohesive, so when the military orders are down, the intensity of enforcement is greatly reduced.

Second, most of the guerrillas were loosely organized, and the quality of the commanders was insufficient, and with the passage of time, many guerrillas began to expand and preserve their own strength because of the high sky and the emperor's distance, and played the role of local emperors.

For them, this anti-Japanese war is just like that, the main force of the Japanese army is on the front line and the main force of the Chinese army is fighting, and most of the people left behind are the last troops of the Japanese army or the security forces, plus the traitor troops, to maintain local law and order.

For example, the establishment of red base areas in the north is hot, but that is the work of the red troops, not the traditional guerrillas in the south.

At the beginning, these guerrillas were indeed security forces attacking the Japanese army, but every time they frantically retaliated against them, they were frantically retaliated by the Japanese army.

Many guerrillas could not fight any longer, and after retreating into the mountains and forests, they immediately discovered a delicate situation, that is, there was no incident, and the number of Japanese troops left behind in the rear was extremely small, and the main forces in front were originally short of men.

Therefore, the Japanese army used a large number of traitor troops, which were controlled by a small number of Japanese troops to maintain local law and order.

When the guerrillas retreated to the outskirts of the mountains, forests and lakes, the Japanese army and the traitor troops also entered the mountains to clear the area, but the problem was the traitor troops, these troops were Chinese, and they were all the main ones who did not contribute to the work.

Originally, most of them became traitors because they were greedy for life and afraid of death, so they would not work for the devils, not to mention that the Chinese beat the Chinese, and these people would grind foreign workers, and after entering the territory of the guerrillas, they would shoot into the sky, rush indiscriminately, and immediately slip away at the slightest defeat.

This level of combat also makes the devils helpless, and there is no way to kick them away, these traitor troops are still needed to maintain basic law and order on weekdays, and it is still useful to deal with some civilians.

Therefore, the guerrillas also discovered this situation, and most of the people began to maintain this balance, and anyway, they did not fight each other, and they lived in peace, and each began to live in his own way, and the days began to slowly nourish themselves.

This army is no better than the people, as soon as the days are nourished, the fighting spirit will be slowly eroded, without the fighting spirit, it will not be an army, no matter how many people there are, it is just a number of routs.

Therefore, even if the war zone and the headquarters of the Loyal Salvation Army sent orders downward, not many guerrillas signed up to go there, and who would go to the front line to die on a good day.

However, not all guerrillas were like birds, and the Baohua Mountain Brigade was not, and Niu Gu operated in Baohua Mountain for many days, expanding his influence to the north bank of the Yangtze River.

After receiving the notice, Niu Gu wanted to personally take the Baohuashan Brigade to northern Jiangxi, find the 74th Army, and return to the arms of the field army, but the headquarters of the Loyal Salvation Army did not allow it.

Even Niu Gu couldn't go, Niu Gu had no choice but to send a few brothers from the original Seventh Company, such as Lao Li Tou, who was a big potato in Tienon, and let them take a reinforced company, break it into pieces, pass through the Japanese-occupied area, and go to northern Jiangxi.

A company of people, pretending to be ordinary people, walking day and night, through the Japanese-occupied area, is not so smooth, it does take some time.

After several days, some people even deserted on the way, and finally arrived in the mountainous areas of northern Jiangxi two days ago, only to find that the operation of the First Corps to encircle and annihilate the 106th Division had ended.

Ta Tie Nong had to find the military station, and learned that the 51st Division of the 74th Army was in Guantangling, and rushed over again, that is, today he finally met with Sangou and a few of them.

After more than a year, as if they hadn't seen each other for many years, several old brothers on both sides couldn't help but be full of tears, and the two sides talked all night, talking about the experiences of both sides for more than a year.

……

Although the three dogs missed Niu Gu very much, Niu Gu just wrote a letter and talked about some reasons why they couldn't make the trip, and everyone also understood Niu Gu's choice under the explanation of Lao Li Tou and others.

First of all, Niu Gu is the soul of the Baohua Mountain Brigade, and he is indispensable, otherwise a mess of things will not be able to be carried out, and even those powerful characters will not be suppressed, and the Baohua Mountain Brigade is likely to fall apart because of Niu Gu's departure.

This is the last thing that the headquarters of the Loyal Salvation Army wants to see, Baohua Mountain is very prominent, located on the edge of the old capital Nanjing, can cope with a large number of underground forces, can also operate a large number of underground work on the Yangtze River.

Therefore, the headquarters of the Loyal Salvation Army did not allow Niu Gu to leave by name, and besides, Niu Gu is now a colonel, and he belongs to the regimental level cadres in the 51st Division, how to put it?

Similar to the locality, the higher up in the army, the more fierce the competition for positions, all because the higher you go, the fewer positions.

Moreover, in the troops, troops like the 51st Division always fight big battles, and the battalion and company platoon commanders below sacrifice a lot, so it is easy to arrange personnel.

But above the regiment commander, there are very few sacrifices, and even if there are sacrifices, the position of the regiment commander is also targeted by the division headquarters and even the military headquarters.

Generally speaking, the appointment of a regiment commander can only be done after the application of a military-level unit and the approval of the Military Commission.

If you want to be airborne, it is only possible unless it is a big bull unit like the Military Commission and the Ministry of Defense, or it is a factional figure in the local army.

And the grassroots like Niu Gu, except for the support of a few general-level figures in the headquarters of the Loyal Salvation Army, in the field army series, almost no one can be recognized, so don't think about participating in the competition for the regiment commander.

It is estimated that it will be difficult to obtain other positions for a regiment-level cadre, because Niu Gu has been away from the regular army for too long.
