On the afternoon of November 3, the routs who reached the south bank of Suzhou Creek entered the camp of the 16th Regiment, and the whole camp was filled with crying, laughter, and scolding...... As if this battalion had become a place for concentrated performances, Leng Qi looked at the influx of nearly 5,000 people, and finally had a smile on his face, "Now the sixteenth regiment can finally be fully formed!" Lenzaki thought,

"Leng Qi, don't be stunned. Did I ask you to get the list of officers I prepared? No one, no more officers! He Jianye asked with a smile,

"Commander, it's all done. Look at it," Legasaki said, handing over a piece of paper,

"Well, let's not talk about it for now, let the officers come here to pick people! Let the guard company and the reconnaissance company choose first, their losses this time are a bit big! More than 40 brothers did not return, and more than 20 are lying in the hospital! Ay!! He Jianye began to be serious,

"Tell the brethren to pull up the shelves first! Don't be asked to leave by other troops. However, you pay attention to screening, don't let the devil's spies get in, and tell the officers to pay more attention these days! Take care of them! In addition, if there are brothers from the third division in this, they must be listed separately, and they still have to be returned. For the rest, no soldier is allowed to take them away without my orders! He Jianye said,

"Yes, the head of the regiment is assured; I will ask the brothers of the second battalion to set up machine guns at the door, and whoever wants to rob people will rush with machine guns from labor and management! Leng Qi turned around and walked away,

"Regiment commander, the division commander asked you to go to the division headquarters for a meeting!" The regimental headquarters signal soldier said,

"Now?" He Jianye asked,

"Yes, right now!" The Signal Soldier affirmed,

"Okay, I'll go change my clothes." He Jianye walked into the regimental headquarters' own dormitory, entered the dormitory door, immediately exited again, turned his head and said to the guard, "You go to Zeng Da and ask him to take the three female signal soldiers we brought back to the division headquarters with me!" ”

"Yes, Captain!" The guards ran away,

He Jianye entered the dormitory, quickly changed his clothes and came out, and found that Zeng Da was waiting for him with the three female soldiers, but when he looked at the three female soldiers, he didn't know the reason why he came back to wash and change his clothes, he didn't look so ugly before, at least he had a bit of a heroic temperament under the military uniform, giving people a different sense of beauty......

He Jianye stayed for a minute, reacted immediately, and said, "Let's go, go to the division!" ”

At the headquarters of the Third Division, next to the conference table, Chen Yinglong, deputy commander of the Third Division, Ruan Yongqi, chief of staff, Zhao Xitian, commander of the Eighth Brigade, Wang Zhaohua, commander of the 13th Regiment, Pan Zhen, commander of the 15th Regiment, Hu Yunshan, commander of the Ninth Brigade, and Zhou Qingxiang, commander of the 18th Regiment, were all sitting there, looking at Li Yutang who was standing at the window, the corners of Zhao Xitian's mouth moved from time to time, and he wanted to say something, but the division commander didn't pay attention to this side at all, so he couldn't help but sit down.

"Report! He Jianye, the head of the 16th Regiment, was ordered to report! He Jianye shouted at the door,

"Come in!" Li Yutang turned around and said,

"Sit! It's waiting for you! Li Yutang turned around and sat down,

"He Jianye! This time, you went to the Japanese-occupied area to collect the defeated troops, and the results were good! Bring back 4,500 veterans for our third division! Although it is a rout, I believe that after a period of training and rectification, it will definitely be an elite division! Li Yutang smiled and praised He Jianye,

The more He Jianye listened, the more wrong it became! How did it become the third division?

"Division Commander, I can tell Brigade Commander Hu and you before I set off, the defeated soldiers I brought back are the soldiers of my 16th Regiment, you didn't object at the beginning! Why do you want to regret it now? Don't worry, I understand, as long as there is a third division of the defeated soldiers who come back this time, no matter which company it is, I will return it! He Jianye said,

Li Yutang smiled wryly and did not speak.

He Jianye smiled bitterly and continued: "Division commander, don't worry, didn't you say some time ago that it is not easy for the personnel of the division headquarters communication company to be repaired? No, this time I also specially rescued a few communications soldiers of the 16th Division and brought them to you. Just outside the door, there are still three beauties, it's interesting enough! ”

"He Jianye, you don't give me sloppy eyes. 4,500 veterans, plus more than 700 people left in your sixteenth, is almost the strength of a brigade, and the veterans of the Songhu War suffered heavy losses! Don't you want to help the brothers? ”

"Division commander, there are not so many, I took out more than 270 people in the guard company and reconnaissance company this time, and only more than 230 people came back, and some of them are lying in the hospital, I am not polite to say, these two companies have poured a lot of my efforts, and every soldier is more than enough as a platoon commander, but for the rout on the Songhu battlefield, I did not hesitate to take them to save people. More than 400,000 troops of the national army were scattered on the battlefield, and more than 20,000 were captured by the Japanese army! Whoever wants to be red-eyed, no one will stop them, go! Go to the battlefield to find it! Go to the Japanese prisoner camp to rescue, as much as you want! He Jianye said sadly,

"For this sortie, more than 270 brothers who followed me for 4 days and 4 nights starved, sneaking in the rain and squatting in the cold wind....... They were tortured, and more than 400 brothers fought to the death against the Japanese devils in order to cover us! Suffice it to say, these people we came back with the blood of other brethren on their backs! ”

"Division commander, don't say much else, wait until you come back to the barracks with me! Ask them face to face, who wants to go with you, and I will not stop them. If you don't want to, don't force it! He Jianye said shut up here......

The division headquarters fell into silence, He Jianye slowly stood up, saluted everyone, turned around and left the headquarters, and said to Zeng Da, "You stay here and hand over these three communication soldiers to the division commander!" I'll go back to the barracks first. After He Jianye finished speaking, he left lonely.......

He Jianye returned to the barracks, Leng Qi looked at He Jianye who had entered the barracks, and he didn't see the three female signal soldiers brought out by Zeng Dahe coming back, so he came up and asked, "Regiment commander, what's wrong?" What's wrong? ”

He Jianye waved his hand and asked, "What happened to the selection?" ”

"Hey! The distribution has been completed, but the establishment of each battalion and company is exceeded, isn't there a lot of people! Hehe! Legasaki began to giggle,

"Well, are there any people from the original Third Division?" He Jianye asked,

"Yes, but there is no one from our regiment, they are all singled out, only 5, what about the regiment headquarters? Waiting for you to come back and return it! Lenzaki said,

"No, their regimental commander will be there later, and all the troops will be assembled in the playground." He Jianye said,

"Yes" Leng Qi ran to find the officer on duty,

The officers immediately sounded the horn of the emergency assembly, and in less than 15 minutes, all the 5,100 people of the 16th Regiment had assembled in the playground......

He Jianye looked at the military commanders of the division and brigade who appeared at the door of the barracks, and didn't care about them, he went directly to the high platform of the playground and said loudly,

"Brothers, from the prisoner camp next to Fuzaobang to here, I, He Jianye, am ashamed of everyone, except for urging on the way, there is no way to provide you with supplies, there is no way to protect you back here, and even many brothers have fallen on the road, now the opportunity you have chosen has come, the two commanders of the Eighth Brigade of our Third Division, and the commander of the Eighteenth Regiment of the Ninth Brigade have all come to the camp, let us welcome their arrival!"

None of the gathered routs clapped, only more than 600 people from the original 16th Regiment were clapping, and the sparse applause disappeared after two minutes.......
