Chapter 22: Temper tantrum
Ma Youde sat with logistics Lao Zhao and knew some of the things that had happened in the past few days.
One is the cruelty of the battle, after the end of the first battle to resist US aggression and aid Korea, the US army and the multinational coalition army suffered a total of more than 75,000 casualties, and our army also suffered more than 19,000 casualties, which Ma Youde did not dare to imagine, as an ordinary recruit, he was still shocked when he heard that so many people died in a battle for the first time.
Again, a new group of volunteer soldiers crossed the river on foot and rushed for several days and nights to reach the Qingchuan River, joined the missing company, filled the gap of casualties, and only the 358th Regiment added more than 100 new people, although this is far from the previous total number, but it should also be snickering.
Among the new arrivals, a new regimental political commissar, that is, the instructor, and the division political commissar have also been replaced, this is because this group of people are proficient in at least three Chinese languages, which is convenient for communicating with the prisoners, and the political commissar from the 358th regiment is called Zhang Yongping, in his thirties, with black-framed glasses, is a very rigid person, strict requirements for the soldiers' life and ideology, the soldiers are afraid of him, do not want to listen to his long nagging, but Zhang Yongping's results are speechless, understand English, French, Russian and Japanese Chinese, outstanding results, He also has a good marksmanship.
The soldiers can only talk about it in private, and they all call him a panel face, because he always has a straight face.
Because Zou Xiangrong was injured, the position of company commander became vacant, and according to the regiment commander Zhang Weimin's intention, Wei San was temporarily promoted to the commander of the third company, but he was blocked by Zhang Yongping, and Wang Henian, the instructor of the third company, became the company commander of the third company, and the soldiers could only accept this fact and let Wang Henian become the company commander.
Regarding Zhang Yongping's decision, Zhang Weimin couldn't refute it, (let's not talk about it if it's sensitive, I'm afraid of X) Wei San is nothing, and said: "How can I command the troops, it's good to be a squad leader, as long as you can kill the enemy with a gun, it doesn't matter if you are a small soldier." ”
Because the leader of the first squad was wounded, Wei San temporarily served as the squad leader of the first class, joined the newly replenished soldiers, and made up the establishment of twenty people for Wei San's squad, which will be over, and there are brothers from the 39th Army guarding on the bank of the Qingchuan River, and the 38th Army has been repaired for a few days, and on that day, Wei San met a big man.
Which big shot?
Li Yunlong, division commander!
The day after the U.S. troops retreated across the Cheongchon River, Wei San was called to the division headquarters by division commander Jiang Yonghui, because it was in a foreign country, so there was no house to live in, and the so-called division headquarters was a large tent, and this tent was given by Kim Il Sung.
When Kim Il Sung heard that the Yalu River railway bridge had been blown up, he let out a handful of blood, not only helped to repair the railway, but also opened his arsenal, provided some weapons and ammunition, and gave 10,000 tents.
Thanks to this tent, because the weather was getting colder, the troops were camped in the wilderness, and they were wearing thin military uniforms, and the cold wind was blowing, and the cold lips were purple.
After having a tent, the soldiers at least have a place to hide, but the only disadvantage is that this tent is army green, which is easy to be discovered by the enemy's reconnaissance planes.
Therefore, tents can be dismantled at any time, and enemy planes can be prevented from bombing at any time, as long as they don't freeze to death, what can they do if they work hard?
When Wei San entered the tent, he saw a dark-skinned face at a glance, Li Yunlong, who could be seen from his face that this was a bold and rude person.
Jiang Yonghui turned his back to Wei San, and did not find Wei San at this time, Wei San and Li Yunlong looked at each other, and Li Yunlong slapped the table: "It's amazing!" At such a young age, I thought he was an old man like me! ”
Jiang Yonghui turned around and looked: "Wei San is here, come and sit!" ”
Only then did Wei San stand up and say, "Wei San came to report." ”
Before Wei San came, Jiang Yonghui and Li Yunlong were already sitting face to face at a table, there were scrambled eggs, peanuts and other snacks on the table, Jiang Yonghui pulled Wei San to sit down and said: "Come, don't come with me Those etiquettes, now treat me as your friend, brother, just become, there is no division commander here, and there are no soldiers." ”
Wei San sat down stiffly, Jiang Yonghui gave Xiao Shi a gesture, Xiao Shi stood up and then came out of the tent, put down the curtain, Jiang Yonghui said: "Come, let me introduce you, Li Yunlong, the commander of the 113th Division!" ”
Wei San immediately stood up and saluted and shouted, "Hello division commander!" ”
Li Yunlong laughed heartily: "Hahaha, you are better than me, what kind of anti-tank mine did you make, I heard about it, you have made meritorious service this time, I have to reward you." ”
Wei San smiled: "This is what I should do!" ”
Li Yunlong picked up a bowl of wine on the table: "Reward you!" ”
Wei San looked at Jiang Yonghui, Jiang Yonghui: "Didn't you ask me for wine, the wine is here, sit down and drink." ”
Wei San stood and took the bowl in Li Yunlong's hand, and drank the half bowl of wine with a tilt of his neck, and then Li Yunlong said: "Okay, now that the wine is finished, let's talk about some business." ”
Wei San: "The division commander has something to order." ”
Li Yunlong smiled, making Wei San feel that his eyes looked like he was looking at some kind of treasure: "How about building hundreds of mines for me too?" ”
Wei San: "Cheng, as long as you have enough explosives, you can build as much as you want!" ”
Jiang Yonghui stopped Wei San: "Alas, I haven't agreed yet, why are you so sincere, he wants you to make it!?" I don't care, I want mines, get five hundred shells in exchange! ”
Li Yunlong: "He's N milk!" You kid even dare to knock on Lao Tzu's bamboo pole!? ”
Jiang Yonghui: "To give or not to give?" Don't give me a price increase! ”
Li Yunlong touched his short curly hair, sighed and said, "This little devil didn't take advantage of Lao Tzu, you kid is a lion with a big mouth, okay!" 500 shells, 500 mines, I admit to this deal! ”
Jiang Yonghui climbed along the pole: "Who told you that 500 shells can be exchanged for 500 mines, at most 300, no more!" ”
Wei San interrupted: "This is too much, and there is not enough time, I can only do my best." ”
Jiang Yonghui seemed to have won a battle, completely ignoring Li Yunlong's ugly face and said: "If you hear it, there will be up to three hundred, haha, I finally grabbed a piece of meat from your mouth." ”
Wei San smiled bitterly, these two division commanders started trading with themselves, which really made their jaws drop!
When Wei San was about to speak, Xiao Shi said outside the tent: "Political Commissar Zhao, the division commander is inside!" ”
Judging from the volume raised from the small stone, this is obviously reminding the two division commanders in the tent, Jiang Yonghui is nothing, but Li Yunlong can't sit still, Zhao Gang is here!
Li Yunlong scratched his head and said, "T mother, Lao Zhao won't let me drink!" ”
A round-faced man lifted the curtain on the tent and walked in, Zhao Gang understood at a glance, drinking!
Why don't you hide the wine? Wine? That's not Li Yunlong's style, Zhao Gang's face pulled down and didn't give Jiang Yonghui face at all, and he came over and slapped the table: "Li Yunlong, don't we count the three chapters of the law!?" ”
Wei San was bitter in his heart: "Okay, a table of tempers has gathered together!" ”
