Chapter 87: Transformation (15)
At the beginning of June 1936, He Jianye estimated that the old beautiful wife in the family was about to give birth recently, so Leng Qi continued to be in charge of all the training, and Deputy Commander Xia was responsible for the military discipline and logistics management of the army; Then I asked for a leave of absence from the division headquarters, and ran to Nanchang as soon as I slipped away, and went to the fertilizer store to inform the steward that the sale of pork and chickens and ducks had been suspended in the past few days. I'll wait until I come back; After explaining a few words, He Jianye didn't hear what the steward said at all, and ran towards Qingjiang excitedly, and ordered Zeng Da, who was driving, to refuel all the way......
He Jianye, who ran home, hadn't entered the house yet, but he heard shouting inside, "Born, born、......"
When He Jianye heard this sound, he got out of the car and ran straight to his small courtyard, and was directly stopped by his mother He Lin at the door.
"Second son, what's the hurry? Cleaning up inside? Don't bump into my grandson with this dust and hernia all over your body, go and take a shower and change your clothes that year before you come back. He Lin said solemnly,
"Ahh Mother, don't worry! He Jianye was a little confused, he didn't figure it out! Just go in first and see what's going on?
"What's not important, the rules of the old generation, go take a shower and change your clothes!" He Lin's tone began to be stern, and He Jianye, who couldn't understand the reason in his heart, didn't want to contradict his mother, so he went to wash his clothes with complicated feelings. More than 20 minutes later, He Jianye came again, and this time his mother was not at the door, so He Jianye went in directly.
"Huh? Why is there no one in the yard? What about people? He Jianye muttered, as if he heard the sound of talking from the second floor of the bedroom, so he walked directly towards the bedroom building, and went upstairs, everyone was in the corridor, their faces were full of joy, but everyone didn't speak.
"What are you doing? Who gave birth? He Jianye dragged Lin Lao Er and asked,
"Ahh Second young master? Lin Lao Er looked back and saw that it was the second young master, and then said, "It's Mrs. Xiaolian, who gave birth to a daughter, and the midwife and wet nurse are still cleaning up inside, so don't bother you too much, so we're all waiting here?" ”
He Jianye walked through the crowd standing neatly by the wall, said hello to his mother, and waited here together, half an hour later, the door opened a crack, and a maid came out with a red basin of water, so He Jianye could only stand by the wall and wait, and after another half an hour, the midwife came out and said, "You can go in one by one, but not too long; Not good for babies and mothers. After speaking, accompanied by the subordinates outside, he went to the guest room outside to rest.
He Jianye was about to go in to have a look, but was pulled back by the old lady, the old lady glanced at He Jianye demonstratively, and went in directly, He Jianye touched his nose and touched his ears again, looking at a group of people who were holding back their laughter, and also tiptoed in.
After pushing open the door and walking into the big bedroom, he closed the door and looked at a few people in the house, except for the two wet nurses who were waiting to take care of Xiaolian next to him, who looked at He Jianye, the old lady was looking at her granddaughter dotingly, Xiaolian may be too tired and has fallen asleep.
Time soon came to dinner time, He Jianye didn't have the heart to eat, but he was still pulled away by his mother, He Jianye quickly finished eating at the dinner table, returned to the big bedroom, saw that Xiaolian had woken up, and said with a smile, "Fortunately."
"It's a pity it's a daughter." Xiaolian was a little unhappy,
"Huh! What happened to my daughter? I like my daughter the most, and this will be our little princess in the future! He Jianye said,
"I still want a son." Xiaolian gagged and said,
"We are so young, we will have a chance to have a son in the future!" He Jianye sat on the edge of the bed, touched Xiaolian's head dotingly and said,
In this way, the warm atmosphere has been permeating the bedroom, Xiaolian was sleepy again, yawned, He Jianye looked at his little daughter, and said to Xiaolian, "Our eldest princess's nickname is called Daya!" Xiaolian nodded, smiled and fell asleep.
He Jianye got up, gently tucked the quilt, and then slowly pushed it out, came to Qingya's room, said a conversation, felt that the period of high spirits had passed, and he was suddenly very sleepy, so he went back to the bedroom to rest......
Seven days later, Qingya also gave birth to a baby boy, named Da Niu, He Jianye stayed at home for another three days, and hurriedly dared to return to the barracks.
He Jianye, who is in good spirits on happy occasions, is naturally not stingy with the brothers, and on the day he returns to the barracks, he adds meat and vegetables to the brothers......
After two months of recruit training, the 16th Regiment had a great change in its overall appearance, and seeing that it was about to enter live-fire training and tactical training, He Jianye began to consider the issue of filling vacancies in grassroots company platoon commanders.
On July 1, 1936, the recruit training and assessment of the 16th Regiment began. Including all the veterans to participate in the assessment together, the whole regiment of more than 3,400 people lasted for 3 days of assessment, there were about 300 unqualified people, He Jianye instructed Leng Qi to specially dispatch people from the reconnaissance company to carry out intensive training for these people, held a meeting at the regiment headquarters, after discussion, appointed Leng Qi as the commander of the second battalion, Yang Xiaoshi as the commander of the reconnaissance company, and Zeng Da as the commander of the guard company; Those who had better training results in each battalion and worked harder in the night patrol squad at night were promoted to company commanders, while platoon commanders were even simpler, that is, the training results had the final say.
The officers of the unit were reappointed, the unit was supplemented by a large number of new recruits, the various organs were finally perfected, and the 16th Regiment after the completion of the allocation of various units was sufficient and properly trained, and the embryonic form of an elite unit was already seen, except that most of the officers and men of the unit had not experienced actual combat.
On August 1, 1936, after a large amount of live-fire training, He Jianye reported the current establishment of the 16th Regiment to the division headquarters and attached a copy to Minister He Yingqin in Nanjing. What for? Of course, it was to be equipped, and the weapons that were promised at the beginning were replenished, but in addition to the Hanyang-made and bullet replenishment, only a few dozen boxes of grenades were considered "heavy weapons".
"Respectfully to Division Commander Li Yutang and the commander of the Army Formation Department: The 16th Regiment of the 9th Brigade of the 3rd Division of the National Revolutionary Army, after the replenishment of new recruits by the Army Formation Department, under the high-intensity training that lasted for three months, the 16th Regiment has now completed the training and reorganization of the troops, and the structure after the reorganization is as follows: 3 infantry battalions of 650 people each (more than 100 light machine guns are missing), 1 light artillery battalion of 350 people, 6 75mm mountain guns (not equipped with mountain guns at present), 18 standard water-cooled heavy machine guns (only 2 at present, and the ammunition stock is insufficient, It is not yet possible to carry out live-fire training for machine gunners; 1 baggage company 150 people; 1 engineer company with 150 people; 1 cart transport company of 150 people (3 cart transport convoys of 40 carts, two-horse two-wheeled standard carriages, depending on the road conditions, payload 300-500 kg. ); 1 hand-to-hand supplementary battalion of 300 people; 1 reconnaissance company directly under the regimental headquarters with 180 people; 1 regimental headquarters guard company with 2,000 people; The full strength of the regiment is 3,430 people. I would like to submit to all the commanders that I would like to ask the Ministry of Military Affairs to replenish the equipment so as to create conditions for the 16th Regiment to better carry out training and complete the reorganization of German weapons in the next step. He Yingqin frowned and read the telegram sent by He Yingqin, and knew in his heart that this stinky boy was asking for something, although there were a lot of German equipment in the warehouse that had just arrived, but those things were all owned by the owner, and they were to be repaired for the first batch of 10 divisions.
