Qiulin Town, Yichuan County, Shaanxi, the Commander's Department of the Second Theater.

The Japanese army in Pingding County had declared the end of the operation, and Yan Xishan began to get in touch with the troops of the Eighth Route Army to inquire about the situation of Sun Weiguo's Independent Regiment.

Knowing that the troops of the Independent Regiment had been picked up by the troops of the 120th Division and broke out, Yan Xishan showed a rare smile on his face.

In any case, Sun Weiguo's independent regiment is a unit subordinate to the Second War Zone, and Sun Weiguo's operation can be regarded as adding a lot of face to Yan Xishan.

Newspapers at home and abroad reported that the troops of the Sun Weiguo Independent Regiment in the Second Theater had won the battle and smashed the encirclement and annihilation of tens of thousands of Japanese troops.

"It's a pity, it would be nice if this Sun Weiguo could be in the Jin Sui Army, he was just the regiment commander in the Eighth Route Army, as long as he was willing to come to the Jin Sui Army, I was willing to give him a brigade commander, no, I would give him the position of division commander."

Inside the house, Yan Xishan sat on a chair, his eyes looked at Zhu Shouguang in front of him, with a solemn expression on his face.

Zhu Shouguang was silent, it was inconvenient for him to answer this question, but Tang Chunhua, who was standing next to Zhu Shouguang, spoke.

"Chief Yan, this Sun Weiguo doesn't know what to do, but a few reporters are still there with him, if he says something nonsense, I'm afraid it won't have a good impact on you."

After a few days of travel, Tang Chunhua finally returned to the Chief's Department.

He had always hoped that Sun Weiguo and those reporters would be killed by the Japanese army, but now they broke out safely, which made Tang Chunhua very disappointed.

Thinking of his performance in the Independent Regiment, Tang Chunhua knew that he had lost face to the Jin Suijun.

Now what he wants to do is to redeem these things, so he plans to take the initiative to ask Ying to go to the Independent Regiment again.

"You're right, last time Sun Weiguo used reporters to extort a lot of weapons and ammunition from us, but fortunately, these weapons and ammunition were used to fight devils, and no matter what, this Sun Weiguo is from Shanxi, and it is reasonable for him to use our weapons to defend Shanxi and fight against the Japanese army."

Yan Xishan nodded, he said softly, Shanxi people are shrewd after all, but Sun Weiguo's shrewdness did not cause Yan Xishan's disgust.

"Sir Yan, Sun Weiguo's independent regiment is just a private number of the Eighth Route Army, I think it is better to give Sun Weiguo's troops a regular number this time, in addition, Sun Weiguo is only the deputy head of the independent regiment, we will give him the position of regiment commander, I think he will definitely read the benefits of Chief Yan."

At this time, Zhu Shouguang spoke, his eyes looked at Yan Xishan, and he said with a serious expression.

"What Lan Sun said makes sense, Lan Sun, you personally send a telegram to the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, commend the troops of the Independent Regiment, and award Sun Weiguo the number of the First Reserve Regiment of the Army, Sun Weiguo serves as the colonel of the First Reserve Regiment, and the Eighth Route Army Headquarters will decide the ownership of this reserve first regiment. In addition, Tang Chunhua, you go to Sun Weiguo again with a batch of weapons and ammunition, you have to take all those reporters back, and don't let Sun Weiguo talk nonsense. ”

After Yan Xishan hesitated for a moment, he glanced at Zhu Shouguang and Tang Chunhua, and then gave an order.

The two men saluted, and they began to walk outside.

As for the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, which received a telegram from the headquarters of the commander of the Second Theater of Operations, they were very surprised.

You must know that only three divisions, six brigades, and 12 regiments of the Eighth Route Army have regular numbers, and the numbers of the rest of the troops are drawn up by the Eighth Route Army units themselves.

At present, the Second Theater Commander's Department specially awarded Sun Weiguo's troops a regular number, which was very surprising to the heads of the Eighth Route Army Headquarters.

Soon, the order of the head of the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army began to convey the order of the headquarters of the commander of the second theater, and the two departments of the quartermaster department and the station department of the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army should cooperate with the reorganization of the troops of the first regiment.

At the same time, the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army temporarily equipped Sun Weiguo's reserve first regiment to the 120th Division, Sun Weiguo served as the commander of the first reserve regiment, and Shen Wei served as the political commissar of the first reserve regiment.

At this time, Sun Weiguo did not know the news, and after Sun Weiguo arrived at the location of the headquarters of the 120th Division, the officers and soldiers began to fall asleep.

They were so tired that the officers and men had spent several days of fighting on the march and in battle, and now that they had the opportunity to rest, they naturally did not miss it.

Sun Weiguo didn't know how long he had been asleep, and when he felt someone touch his body, Sun Weiguo opened his eyes.

After seeing Liu Qian in front of him, Sun Weiguo breathed a sigh of relief, Liu Qian was cleaning the wound on Sun Weiguo's chest.

"Division Commander He of the 120th Division has been here, and he left when he saw that you were still resting, and Zhang Yue and Catherine wanted to write you an interview, but now that they have gone to rest, they may not be able to wake up tomorrow, are you hungry or not, I will help you find something to eat."

Liu Qian said softly, her eyes looked at Sun Weiguo, and a smile appeared on her cheeks.

Looking at Liu Qian's bloodshot eyes and looking at Liu Qian's pale cheeks, Sun Weiguo couldn't help but stretch out his right hand.

He caressed Liu Qian's cheek lovingly, and he said softly: "Liu Qian, this time has also worked hard for you, you should hurry up and rest and rest, if you are tired and tired, I will be a sinner." ”

"I'm not tired, you're fine." Liu Qian said softly, and Sun Weiguo stroked her cheek with her right hand, and Liu Qian's pale cheeks were flushed.

She bandaged Sun Weiguo's wounds, glanced at Sun Weiguo, and hurriedly ran outside.

Sun Weiguo reluctantly sat up, and he moved his body.

After stepping out of the house, he came to the courtyard and looked at his surroundings, thinking that he should be in the village.

"Hello chief." When Sun Weiguo came to the outside of the courtyard, the guards began to salute Sun Weiguo.

At this time, Shen Wei happened to be walking towards here, Shen Wei had a smile on her cheeks, she had obviously rested.

"Weiguo, I have good news for you." Shen Wei came to Sun Weiguo's side, and she said with a smile on her cheeks.

"What's the good news? Is there any news about the head of the regiment? Sun Weiguo hurriedly asked.

After separating from Zhong Jian, Sun Weiguo was very worried about Zhong Jian's situation.

"The Japanese troops have all been evacuated, and there is no problem on the regiment commander's side. But the good news I want to tell you is not these, just now the commander of the 120th Division He talked to me, our troops have been awarded the number of the first reserve regiment, you have come to serve as the regiment commander, and the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army will replenish some of our soldiers, weapons and ammunition. ”

Shen Wei looked at Sun Weiguo, and an excited expression appeared on her face.
