Chapter 172: Thank you, Battalion Commander!
When he was seriously injured and sent to the rear hospital for treatment, after the injury improved slightly, Zhao Tiehu only knew that the tiger head battalion was finally reorganized and disbanded. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoAs for those people still alive in the Hutou Battalion, Zhao Tiehu actually doesn't know much.
But every time he saw these old subordinates, Zhao Tiehu still felt very happy. In such war-torn times, the frequent alternation of personnel in the troops, and the reunion of old comrades-in-arms is also a rare thing.
After being led into the valley by Zhao Tiehu, looking at the troops who had set up tents and rested in the valley, Wang Yu, the instructor of the third battalion, said in surprise: "Why do you have so many marching tents?" This thing, seized from the little devil? ”
Well, it's all good stuff, and after the seizure, I kept a few more in my hand. When they go out to fight, they often have to stay overnight in the mountains and forests, and if there are no tents on rainy days, the soldiers are also prone to illness. ’
By the way, I heard from the guerrilla comrades that you just came from Pingyao? As far as I know, your 772nd Regiment should be fighting behind enemy lines in Yushe. During this time, the little devils were encircled and suppressed, why did you go to Pingyao? ’
As an old comrade-in-arms, Wang Yu was also very curious about why Zhao Tiehu and his entourage came from Pingyao to Wuxiang. Although the units of the Eighth Route Army are frequently mobilized, under normal circumstances, the company-level combat units must follow the regimental headquarters.
At present, the 772nd Regiment is still in Yushe, why did the reconnaissance company under its command go to fight outside the county, this is somewhat unreasonable!
Zhao Tiehu, who also understood why Wang Yu was curious, also explained with a smile: "The reconnaissance company is just a temporary number for the convenience of coming out. Actually, I am now the captain of the Hutou Mountain Guerrilla Brigade in Yushe.
Before the little devils launched a sweep, I took the initiative to apply to go behind enemy lines to carry out sabotage operations. I fought a few battles with Taigu in Qi County a few times ago, and I the little devils, and I planned to surround us with heavy troops, so I brought the troops here.
If it weren't for the guerrillas in your defense area who discovered our whereabouts, we would have left early tomorrow morning. It's not far from Yushe, and we have been out for so long, and we also want to return to the army as soon as possible.
By the way, this anti-encirclement campaign should be almost over, right? Can you tell me about the current situation of the troops? Also, at present, most of the encirclement and suppression troops of the little devils are concentrated in those places, how many troops are there? ”
Scout company! Qi County, Taigu!
Wang Yu, who listened to these key words, was stunned for a while and said: "Wait, the troops who robbed the little devil army in Taigu last time can't it be you, right?" ”
'Hmmm! Have you heard about that, too? ’
'Oh my! You really did it! My God, how did you do it with more than 200 people under your command? ’
In fact, it was not for us people, the military column that robbed the little devils at that time, and the Taigu Independent Battalion also helped a lot. By the way, Xiao Feng, you may not know that the battalion commander of the Taigu Independent Battalion is the commander of the third company of our battalion. ’
'What? It's Company Commander Zhang, and he's already a battalion commander? ’
Feng Jinhua, who was following alongside, was naturally very familiar with the three company commanders in the original battalion. Knowing that the commander of the third company, Zhang Mingxiang, was still alive and had even become the battalion commander, Feng Jinhua also seemed very happy.
Zhao Tiehu, who heard this, also smiled and said: "You kid is a company commander, what's so strange about someone being a battalion commander." Speaking of which, you have all made progress, but I, the old battalion commander, am a little inferior to you. ”
'What about that!' Battalion commander, although you are now a guerrilla captain, you are also a battalion-level cadre! And you have made such a great contribution this time, when you return to Yushe, the brigade will definitely be promoted and reused. When the time comes, you will definitely be the head of the regiment. ’
'Commander, you kid really dare to think about it! ’
After causing everyone to laugh, Wang Yu and others, who rushed to check the situation, also felt that the atmosphere of the two troops was good. The soldiers of the company who came with him were also surprised that the commander of this unit turned out to be the old battalion commander of their company commander.
After introducing Liu Cheng and the others, Zhao Tiehu looked at the sky and said, "Old Liu, let the cooking class make more bacon and white-flour steamed buns, and let the soldiers of the Eighth Company dine with us." There is no need to keep these things.
In addition, let the cooking class fry two side dishes, and I will have two drinks with Instructor Wang and Xiao Feng later. After letting the little devil chase for so long, he should also relax a little. When we arrived at the defense area of the new regiment, I think we are really safe. ”
'Yes, Captain! ’
When Liu Cheng began to arrange dinner, the soldiers of the Eighth Company, who were ordered to come, also received an order from their company commander to ask them to help in the cooking class. Looking at the bags of white noodles, many soldiers felt drooling.
In addition, the cooking squad began to cut the bacon, and the soldiers of the Eighth Company who helped also felt that the food of this army was really good. If you were to be their company, if you want to eat such a sumptuous feast, I'm afraid it's really not easy!
When accompanying Zhao Tiehu and others to chat and wait for the meal to be cooked, Feng Jinhua was also very curious to inquire about the battles that Zhao Tiehu had fought on this trip. Although he didn't know much about the situation, he knew that the little devil had something to do with Zhao Tiehu when he ended the sweep in a hurry this time.
After listening to Zhao Tiehu's introduction, Feng Jinhua also said with admiration: "Battalion commander, with just your kind of person, it is really not easy to play the little devil around!" However, your gear is really good! ”
'What? Hungry? Would you like to give you some gear? The last time I met that kid Mingshen, he didn't take anything out of my hand. I'm going back to Yushe tomorrow, and I'll have some extra weapons and ammunition, so I'll give you some later! ’
'Really? Thank you, battalion commander, then! ’
Went to the tent where the ammunition was stored and looked at the twelve mortars lined up in the tent. Wang Yu, who also came over, was also surprised and said, "Oh my God! You guys, you guys, have so many artillery? ”
'What is this!' If it weren't for the fact that the artillery was too heavy, there were a lot of infantry guns and mountain guns captured during the robbery of the little devil's train last time. With that batch of weapons, it is estimated that there will be no problem at all in forming some new main regiments.
It's just that it's too far away from our brigade, and I'm afraid that the 385th Brigade will be embezzled by those weapons. These mortars, if you want them, you can't give them more, but it's still okay to even the two of you. ’
It is clear that newly formed units like the New Regiment are very lacking in weapons and equipment. Compared with the combat detachments, most of them are equipped with the 38 big covers of the little devils, and some are even equipped with machine guns and box guns.
Such equipment does seem a bit extravagant for a unit like the new regiment. It is rare to meet old subordinates, and Zhao Tiehu feels that it is very necessary to improve the combat effectiveness of some companies for his old subordinates.
Wang Yu, who was standing on the side, immediately smiled when he heard this: "Okay, with these two mortars, in the future, whether our battalion is attacking or defending, it can be regarded as having some heavy weapons." Lao Zhao, thank you! ”
'It's all old comrades-in-arms, what's polite! So be it! Two guns are a bit less, so I'll just give you four so that you can also form a mortar platoon. I believe it will be easier to train for combat.
It's just that I can't give you too many shells, and I need to stock up on some more shells as well. As for Xiao Feng, wait a minute, I'll pick some machine guns and grenadiers from the brigade, and some reserved Hanyang-made. I'll give you some more bullets, okay? ’
'Okay! Thank you, battalion commander! ’
Looking at Feng Jinhua, who was full of joy, Wang Yu, who was the instructor of the third battalion, also smiled and said: "With these equipment given by your old battalion commander, the weapons and equipment of your eighth company are estimated to be unique in the whole regiment!" ”
'Lao Wang, to make it clear, I gave Xiao Feng these equipment. When you go back, don't you want to recycle it again! Of course, it's rare to meet you as an old comrade-in-arms, and I'll pick out some weapons for you later.
In fact, when we came from Pingyao, we buried a lot of weapons and ammunition outside Hongshan Town in Pingyao. If your regiment develops over there in the future, where things are buried, I can tell you.
Although there are not many weapons and ammunition in that batch, it should not be a problem to arm a main company. Wait a minute, you tell me how the enemy situation is around, if not, I'll pick a gang of little devils to fight, and there should be some gains. ’
'Wow! Lao Zhao, I haven't seen you for a few years, your tone is still the same as before. I really treat the little devil as a dish! ’
'As long as there is no more than one infantry squadron of imps, our combat detachment is fully capable of annihilating them. If I don't have a little real kung fu in my hands, do I dare to take this person to wreak havoc? You should know that there are a lot of little devils in Taigu Qi County! ’
With the continuous battles, the strength of today's combat detachments has far surpassed that of ordinary anti-Japanese war companies. It can be said that with the same number of people, Zhao Tiehu is not afraid of little devils at all. Even if he fights with a bayonet, he is not afraid at all.
Zhao Tiehu gave some of the weapons he carried to the Third Battalion and the Eighth Company. Looking at these brand-new weapons and ammunition, the soldiers of the Eighth Company were naturally very excited. I think the old battalion commander of his own company commander is really generous!
When dinner was ready, looking at the steamed white-flour steamed buns and pots of meat dishes with attractive aromas, the soldiers of the Eighth Company naturally looked very happy. But for the fighters of the combat detachment, they were equally happy.
They are naturally proud to be able to share food and happiness with their comrades in their own troops. After all, they could feel the envy of the soldiers of the Eighth Company for them, and this envy made them feel very satisfied in their hearts.
After being full of wine and food, Zhao Tiehu did not keep Wang Yu and his party too much. As troops stationed in Wuxiang, they also can't stay outside for long. Moreover, the news that Zhao Tiehu led the troops to Wuxiang also needed to report it to the regiment headquarters and brigade headquarters.
When Wang Yu returned to the battalion headquarters with the weapons and equipment presented by Zhao Tiehu, the commander of the third battalion also looked very surprised. You can see the weapons of the Eighth Company, and the other two company commanders also look a little red.
But they all knew that if they went to see Zhao Tiehu, they were afraid that they might not be able to get this batch of weapons and ammunition. After all, Zhao Tiehu was willing to give these weapons and ammunition to the Eighth Company, more because Feng Jinhua was his old subordinate!
If it were someone else, it was estimated that Zhao Tiehu would not be so generous. In recent years, which unit in the Eighth Route Army would think that they had more weapons and ammunition? If you can't grab it, how can you give it away easily?
