Chapter Thirty-Seven: Back to the Military Academy, a New Beginning

Hong Yu and they were sent out of Xiaolingwei by a truck. Because the Battle of Songhu has just ended, the people are still in sorrow. Therefore, it is rare to see pedestrians on the road. The truck swayed all the way, and more than an hour later, when the truck was about to drive into Huangpu Road, it was stopped by the officer on duty. Hong Yu and the others were told that Huangpu Road was closed today, and all the ninth phase of the Central Military Academy got off here. All the students assemble at the intersection in front. Hong Yu and the others helplessly carried their backpacks and got out of the car with guns. After forming the team on the side, Hong Yu led the team to the direction pointed by the officer on duty.

When Hong Yu and the others came to the assembly place, almost all the students had already arrived. Although we hadn't seen each other for nearly a year, we had three days of political study together before going to the army for training, so everyone was no stranger to them. After chatting with each other, an officer on duty wearing a red armband walked up to Hong Yu and asked, "How many people are you training in that unit?!" ”

Hong Yu replied loudly: "We are training in the sergeant battalion of the Central Military Academy and Teaching Corps, and twelve people participated in the training, and seven returned to the school. The remaining five people were all killed in the battle! With that, Hong Yu took out five identity plates from the pocket of his jacket and handed them to the officer on duty. The officer on duty took the nameplate and looked at it one by one, and asked, "What do you mean by this?!" ”

Hong Yu replied: "Twelve people who went to it, and twelve people who came back." People can't bring them back, I'm going to bring their souls back! We are brothers who will never leave! ”

"This student, you said it very well!" When the officer on duty heard Hong Yu's words, he couldn't help but turn his head and glance around, and then said: "Your enlisted student training has not been in vain, I hope you will continue to carry it forward." With that, the officer on duty turned and left.

Because of the distance of the road, many students received orders and rushed over without having time to eat breakfast. At 11:30 p.m., six veterans wearing white bibs pushed two tricycles and appeared in front of the students. ”

Hearing the password, the students immediately lined up in a neat square according to the team during the political study. Then I saw two veterans holding a large stack of bowls and sending them to the students at one time, followed by four veterans, two making soup and two making steamed buns. When everything was in the hands of the cadets, the officer on duty then shouted, "Dinner!" ”

With the order of the officer on duty, the trainees devoured it. Looking at the gobbling up students, the officer on duty quietly walked to Hong Yu's side and threw a piece of mustard to Hong Yu. Hong Yu glanced at the officer on duty, quickly pulled out the bayonet on his waist, divided the mustard into seven slices with three strikes and five divisions, kept one for himself, and handed the rest to Tang Xingye. Tang Xingye comprehended and distributed the mustard.

At twelve o'clock and twenty minutes, the cadets had just finished their lunch, when a three-wheeled motorcycle drove from a distance and stopped next to the officer on duty, and the soldier sitting in the sidecar opened the folder and took out a piece of paper with orders written on it and handed it to the officer on duty. The officer on duty took the order, quickly read the contents, ran in front of the cadets, and shouted: "Lizheng! ”

The students immediately stood up and quickly lined up.

The officer on duty then shouted: "Look to the right!" Look forward! Gun on the shoulder, turn to the right, and walk in unison! The officer on duty led the cadets slowly towards the gate of the Central Military Academy. When the cadets were still about 500 meters away from the gate of the Central Military Academy, soldiers with loaded guns appeared on both sides of the road, and then the school song of the Central Military Academy was heard on the radio. Accompanied by the rhythm of music, the cadets walked into the gate of the military academy with neat steps.

Entering the school, the officer on duty returned to their respective barracks with the cadets. At this time, each soldier had a brand new military uniform on his bed. Changing into new uniforms, the cadets walked out of the barracks. Regrouped the ranks and walked towards the auditorium under the leadership of the officer on duty.

When Hong Yu and the others walked into the auditorium, except for the empty position in the center of the front row, the other seats had been occupied by the old students. Under the leadership of the officers on duty, the cadets of the ninth class sat down. It didn't take long for the music to sound, and all the students in the auditorium stood up and sang the "Whampoa School Song" in unison: "The angry tide is surging, the party flag is flying, this is the revolutionary Whampoa." ……”

After the singing ended, a middle-aged man's voice rang out: "The principal has arrived!" All of them are there, stand upright! Salute! ”

"Huh!" The students raised their hands neatly and saluted!

Surrounded by many high-ranking officers, Lao Chiang stepped onto the rostrum. After Lao Jiang and the senior officers took their seats, the middle-aged man's voice sounded again: "Finish the ceremony!" Sit down! ”

The students sat down neatly, their backs straight, their legs closed, their hands on their knees, and their eyes staring directly at the rostrum. Then the middle-aged man's voice sounded again: "I would like to invite General Zhang, the chief of education, to speak!" ”

General Zhang stood up, cleared his throat, walked over to the microphone, and said, "All stand up!" ”

The students all stood up, and General Zhang continued: "For the dead students and soldiers in the Battle of Songhu, there is a three-minute silence!" ”

The students all bowed their heads, and mournful music rang out in the auditorium. After three minutes, General Zhang continued: "Sit down, everyone!" After everyone sat down, he continued: "Today is the day when the ninth batch of students will return to school. A year ago, they entered the army for enlisted student training; A year later, they returned. I just saw some of the old students with an unshaven look on their faces, I tell you. You old students are not as good as them at all. Why do I say that, not to hit you. The ninth batch of students, they have all experienced the influence of war and shed blood for the country and the nation! Saying that, General Zhang set his eyes on Hong Yu, who was sitting in the third row, and shouted loudly: "Hong Yu, stand up!" ”

Hong Woo stood up when he heard the shout. General Zhang continued: "You tell the old cadets here that you trained in that unit and fought that battle!" ”

"Yes!" Hong Yu responded and said loudly: "My name is Hong Yu, and I am trained in the sergeant battalion of the Central Military Academy. I participated in the Battle of Songhu and the Battle of Qiyakou. ”

"Sit down!" General Zhang asked Hong Yu to sit down, and then said: "In the battle of Qiyakou, teach the sergeant battalion of the corps to block the attack of an entire wing of the 11th Division of the Japanese Army under the heavy artillery of the Japanese army. It was this cadet who was ordered to command a reserve of wounded and enlisted students to defend the left side of the non-commissioned quarters. Blocked the attack of the Japanese army, which was several times its size. When the troops finally retreated, they were carried off their positions. ”

When General Zhang was speaking in front, Qian Dajun leaned into Lao Jiang's ear and said softly: "Commission, this is Hong Yu, Xu En once wanted to transfer him to the Investigation Department of the Organization Department of the Central Committee. ”

Lao Jiang nodded and said, "This student is good." But there is still a lack of experience, so let's transfer him when he graduates from the military academy and is assigned! ”

"Yes!" Qian Dajun responded.

It didn't take long for General Zhang's speech to end. Subsequently, in order to encourage the students, Lao Jiang personally awarded medals to the students who made meritorious contributions in the Battle of Songhu one by one. ……

After a busy day, Hong Yu finished washing, lay on the bed, and was stunned. Tang Xingshang, who was sleeping on the bed next to Hong Yu, saw Hong Yu in a daze, and couldn't help asking, "Brother Yu, what are you thinking?!" ”

Hong Yu replied, "I'm thinking about the Battle of Songhu. ”

"Huh?!" Tang Xingshang scratched his head and said, "It's all over, what's there to think about?!" ”

Hong Yu glanced at Tang Xingshang and said, "Just because it's over, I have to think about it even more." Otherwise, the five brothers would have died in vain. ”

Hearing Hong Yu's words, all the people in the barracks sat up. Qian Xiaobing said: "Hong Yu, everyone can't sleep, just tell us about it!" ”

Hong Yu asked, "Do you really want to hear it?!" ”

"Yes! Tell us about it! The people in the barracks said in unison.

"Good! I'll tell you about it! After that, Hong Yu got up, took out a map from the satchel hanging on the wall, hung it on the wall, and said, "This is the situation map of friend and foe that I drew in my free time." I divided the Battle of Songhu into three stages. The first phase is the beginning of the campaign. At this stage, because the Japanese army was a sneak attack, the 19th Route Army was taken by surprise. However, in the end, the response was appropriate, so that the Japanese army's conspiracy did not succeed, and although it suffered a loss in terms of troops, it was still on a par with the Japanese army. In the second stage, the Fifth Army reinforced the 19th Route Army. Because we have increased our troops, the scales of victory on the battlefield have tipped in our favor. At this time, the Japanese army swiped a small trick and took advantage of the desire of some of us to hold peace talks, and used the pretext of peace talks to gain time for them to increase their troops. The third stage was the reinforcement of Songhu by the 11th Division of the Japanese Army, and we were defeated because there were no reinforcements. ”

"Grandma|a bear! What a wreck this battle has been! Tan Yuan hammered the bed board heavily and said, "If we also have reinforcements, we won't lose this battle." ”

"Wrong! We're going to lose this battle! Hong Yu looked at them one by one dumbfounded, and then said: "Fighting a war is not only about fighting people, but also about logistics. Our weapons and ammunition are basically imported. And the Japanese army is all produced by themselves. Let's talk about equipment, the Japanese army has the most advanced aircraft artillery, and what do we have, have you ever thought about it?! What will be the result of fighting like this, have you thought about it?! ”

Ma Yi asked, "Hong Yu, then according to what you said, we will never be able to beat the little devil?!" ”

"No!" Hong Yu shook his head and said, "You misunderstood what I meant. That's why I just asked so much why. I just want to tell you that we are not ready for a national war. The little devil was equally unprepared. But no matter when the war starts, the final result will be that we will definitely win! ”
