Autumn is supposed to be the harvest season when the land is full of gold, but the earth that Gao Quan sees is full of devastation. The low, low seedlings in the dry fields are all yellow, and spider web-like cracks can be seen everywhere in the sky and earth. The trees in the field have long lost their green leaves, and the bare branches stretch out to the sky, silently complaining to the sky about the hardships and helplessness of life.

The 500 Army successfully completed its task and handed over many of the 53 captured boats to Wu Qiwei, commander of the Yangtze River Defense Command. In Yichang, Gao Quan was jointly received by Minister Chen and Commander-in-Chief Sun, and the two commanders fully affirmed the proud achievements of the 500 Army and commended Commander Gao for his wise command on the spot.

Probably in order to show the demeanor of a general in front of Minister Chen, Sun Lianzhong actually presented Gao Quan with a hundred Makqin water-cooled heavy machine guns on the spot! Minister Chen: Who is that? Seeing that Sun Lianzhong actually wanted to invite people to buy people's hearts in front of him, he immediately opened his mouth with a smile: "The 500 Army has taken back all the ships stolen by the Japanese invaders this time, which has greatly increased the prestige of our Central Army!" It also helped me a lot in the 6th War Zone. I have reported to the Central Committee and asked for credit for the advice! The chairman of the committee was very happy when he heard about it, and the commendation order will arrive soon! The consumption of the 500 Army's long-distance battle this time is not small, and it is natural for my Sixth War Zone to express something, so don't shirk it! ”

With a few words, Chen Cheng changed the machine gun that Sun Lianzhong gave to Gao Quan to the sixth war zone! People don't talk about themselves, they just talk about the Sixth War Zone, and the weapons and equipment sent by Chief Sun don't represent the Sixth War Zone! Can he still pay for it out of his own pocket? But the problem is that Minister Chen is still holding the official position of commander of the Sixth Theater, and Sun Lianzhong is still only an acting commander!

Minister Chen didn't look at the stunned Chief Sun, he just pulled Gao Quan to reminisce, and Gao Quan also put on a posture of Minister Chen's subordinates, God knows what the relationship between the 500 Army and the Civil Engineering Department is! The intimate reminiscence between the two superiors and subordinates made Chief Sun angry, but he still had to put on a smiling face on his face, not to mention this grievance in his heart!

A group of generals led by Chi Fengcheng dragged Gao Quan to attend the celebration reception, and at the banquet, these people wanted to pour Gao Quan down, but they didn't expect that the guarded Gao military commander used his three-inch incorruptible tongue to cover the left and right, and finally poured Chi Fengcheng, who is known as the wine fairy, into retreat halfway!

Yichang was reincorporated into the rule of China's central government, recovering the country, and recovering the famous city. Compared with the recovery of Yichang, the fleet captured by Gao Quan is at most the icing on the cake. In this regard, Gao Quan did not expect to receive any special awards.

After celebrating for three days in Yichang City, the ship handover procedures were handled, and many of the 53 ships were handed over to the Jiangfang Army, and the 500 Army was able to whip the golden stirrup and sing triumphant songs in unison this time.

I thought that after this battle, I would return to Xiushui to recuperate for a while, and the two planes at Xiushui Airport would almost be able to take off to participate in the battle. Gao Quan fantasized about the three-dimensional operation of the land and air in the future, and a telegram from there asked him to go to Changsha for a meeting and dragged him to the provincial capital of Changsha.

As usual, the summary and commendation after the debriefing meeting and the battle, after the meeting, Xue Yue invited Gao Quan to the small conference room, where there were only two people, Chief Xue and Gao Quan. The commander first showed the order of the Military Commission, which is actually the order of the commission, the kind signed by the chairman of the committee, and then took Gao Quan's hand with a look of reluctance, "Advice, you and I brothers are similar in spirit and like-minded, and I want to get along for a long time." How do you know that the changes in the world are not satisfactory. Although I have protested to the Military Commission many times during this change of guard, it is difficult to disobey my orders! I hope you don't blame the foolish brother. ”

Speaking of this, Xue Yue really had an urge in his heart to leave Gao Quan behind. Since Gao Quan came to the Ninth War Zone, there must be military exploits in every battle, and none of the 500 armies lost the battle to make Xue Yue lose face, but it brought several surprises to Chief Xue. Like this kind of army that can fight, blessed generals, which main general doesn't want to stay under his command as a confidant general! Can Gao Quan's person? Thinking of Gao Quan's various unpopular performances, as well as the various troubles caused to the chief in the past few years, Xue Yue was ruthless and suppressed the idea of staying behind!

"How dare you blame it." Gao Quan hurriedly and politely, these are all kind words, Xue Yue, as a high-powered commander of the theater, can talk to Gao Quan like this, it is already very face-saving, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is Corporal Lixian, how can Gao Quan complain about Xue Yue?

"The state is big, and the personal gains and losses are small. Although Gao Quan is only a shallow learner, this truth is still understood. During the years in the Ninth War Zone, Bogong's selfless personality charm for the country was deeply admired by the general, and he benefited a lot from the general. Gao Quan is stupid and often causes trouble for the chief, but the uncle is not only not to blame, but also opposes Quan Duo to carry out, which makes Gao Quan feel guilty. Although he is away from Bogong today, Gao Quan still regards Bogong as a teacher. Bogong's kindness to Gao Quan's support and care will never be forgotten! ”

After that, Gao Quan first clasped his hands into fists and bent down to Xue Yue, then stood up straight and put his feet together and saluted again, which can be regarded as a complete salute.

"Li Delin of the Fifth War Zone is also an old commander of the Fifth War Zone, and it is expected that the 500 Army will be reused. I wrote a handwritten letter to Li Delin here, telling him that he was a genius of the anti-Japanese resistance and had made many miraculous achievements in our Ninth War Zone, and that this time in the past, I asked him to take more care of you and the 500 Army. Xue Yue said as he took out a letter from his bag and handed it to Gao Quan.

Gao Quan smiled bitterly in his heart, if I don't give you this letter to Li Zongren, it's okay to say, if I give it to him, then I will be uncomfortable! However, if Chief Xue can personally write such a letter of recommendation, this is a great favor for you! The letter of recommendation written by Chief Xue himself is not something that anyone can get if they want to! How could Gao Quan refuse without knowing how to do it? At that moment, Commander Gao stood up again and saluted to express his gratitude. In this regard, the military exchanges between the 9th and 5th theaters can be regarded as officially finalized!

I don't know if this exchange is Xue Yue's meaning, anyway, there was a draft of the Military Commission, signed by the chairman, the ninth and fifth theaters conducted a military exchange, the 9th theater of 500 troops were exchanged back to the fifth theater, and reclassified under the command of commander Li Zongren, and the fifth theater also had an army was exchanged to the ninth theater.

Gao Quan went to Hanzhong to visit Li Zongren, the director of the camp and the commander of the Fifth Theater, and then led the 500 troops to the north.

Chief Li's attitude towards Gao Quan is good, mainly because this Gao Quan has no obvious faction, he is purely a wild man, and there is no ambiguity in fighting with the Japanese. Although Li Zongren didn't like Gao Quan's style, he didn't express any obvious disgust.

During the short talks, Chief Li told Gao Quan that natural and man-made disasters have continued for several years in southern Henan, and the people's lives are very hard. The commander continued to hand over the Tongbai Mountain Area, where the 500 Army had been stationed before, to Gao Quan to manage, and reminded Gao Quan to pay attention to the relationship with the local residents, and not to cause complaints and boiling public resentment like some armies.
