γ249γDeparture
With the loading of supplies on the ship, the 27th Army began to board the ship in a structured manner according to the boarding numbers predetermined by each unit.
Qin Jian, chief of staff of the Ninth Corps, kept issuing orders at the temporary headquarters on the beachhead: "Inform the troops that the following companies should not be scattered in their squads, and should board the ship in formation, and the dismantled detachment should remember the ship number where the scattered detachment is located, and send people to contact them immediately after disembarking." β
The whole Changle beach is crowded, the scale of 40,000 people boarding the boat is really extraordinary, from a high place, only to see the black pressure is all heads, 40,000 camouflage uniforms will blind people's eyes. The commanders of the various units even shouted at the top of their voices, beckoning their own troops, for fear that some soldiers would get lost. It is no wonder that 176 landing ships of three types are lined up on the beach, and if you don't remember the port number, you may not be able to find where your subordinate companies are after disembarking.
Finally, before 3 o'clock in the afternoon, all the members of the 40,000-strong "mechanized" 27 th Army boarded the landing ship and completed the personnel count, and the commanders of each unit firmly held in their hands the pieces of paper with the number of the landing ship where the lower-level troops were located. Some commanders have good brains and easily stuff pieces of paper into their pockets, and they have already made it clear in their hearts that each unit corresponds to the ship in which they are located; Some regiment commanders, battalion commanders, company commanders, and political commissars at all levels don't count after memorizing, and then test each other to see if they can report it accurately in one bite.
After receiving Commander Song Shilun's telegram that the entire army had been boarded on the ship and had completed the two counts, Commander Su, who was waiting at the temporary command post on the beachhead, sent a report in code to Deng Zhaoxiang, commander-in-chief of the special task force of the Navy's North Sea Fleet: "The child is asleep and can go home. β
General Deng Zhaoxiang has now been officially appointed commander of the North Sea Fleet and commander-in-chief of the task force landing formation, and after receiving the telegram, he calmly raised his wrist and looked at his watch, and ordered: "Immediately notify all landing ships, close the hatches, start filling the water, leave the beach, and assemble in formation according to Jihua in the predetermined sea area." Record, 2:43 a.m. offshore time. β
"Yes!" Chen Xingde, deputy captain of the Xining beside him, responded.
Suddenly, on the beach at the head of Changle Beach, under the golden sunshine, the landing ships shook their hatches, and the sound of rattling iron cables resounded throughout the beach. The sound was like a war drum on a march, and it was heard far and wide in the sea.
Listening to this voice, a trace of relief appeared on Commander Su's slightly tired face, and his tense shoulders suddenly relaxed.
Guard Chai Shaofeng walked over and whispered in Commander Su's ear: "Commander, you can sleep for a while, you haven't closed your eyes since yesterday morning." β
Commander Su thought for a while, nodded and said, "Inform Liu Fei and Chen Shifu of the 20th Army of the Ninth Corps, Sun Jixian and Ding Qiusheng of the 22nd Army of the Seventh Corps, and order them to start stationing on the beachhead. β
With that, Commander Su got up and walked towards the makeshift tent behind the command post.
Commander Su was finally able to take a break, but the commanders and fighters in the various landing ships had already begun to get excited.
With the landing ship filling water and retreating, draining and reversing, and the ship turning, some soldiers who were born seasick have begun to turn a little pale.
Huo Yuman, the captain of the landing craft No. N2010, watched the first mate carefully operate the landing craft in the cockpit to steer, and at the same time took off the cable radio intercom hanging in front of him and said: "Now start distributing seasickness medicine, if you feel dizzy, please report to the commander immediately, and all commanders will come to the cockpit to receive seasickness medicine." β
The same broadcast was also made at the same time among the landing ships.
In order to solve the problem of seasickness, Xiaoqiang brought a batch of seasickness medicine this time, generally speaking, seasickness medicine should be taken 30 minutes before departure, but the 27th Army, which was reloaded south, arrived in Fujian by train and on foot, and arrived in Fujian by land, so I didn't know which soldier was seasick and which was not, so I had to make this decision. Anyway, the sea journey is long, and after taking the medicine, wait quietly until you don't faint, and the time is completely in time, and it will not affect the landing later.
Wang Qixiu, commander of the 79th Regiment of the 73rd Division, sat on the front armor of a 59 tank in the 271 landing craft and shouted: "If there is seasickness, do you have any seasickness, and if you are dizzy, you should tell the political commissar that you can't be stiff, and if you turn around and vomit a boatload and haven't taken medicine, see if I don't punish him for wiping this big boat ten times or eight times." β
Political Commissar Hu Ming said gently: "Seasickness is born, this is what my father and mother raise, comrades don't be embarrassed, everyone should report it immediately if they have dizziness, and they can get through it after taking medicine." β
With the words of the commissar, immediately a soldier raised his hand and said: "I'm a little dizzy." β
"I'm a little dizzy, too."
"I'm a little bit too."
Wang Qixiu pretended to be angry and said, "Okay, you guys! I said that I wanted you to take medicine, but you didn't listen, and as soon as the political commissar said it, why did you pretend to be dizzy if you didn't faint? β
Du Maoshi, the guard on the side, joked informally: "Regiment leader, you are a liar, and we all don't believe you." β
Wang Qixiu smiled and gave Du Maoshi a chestnut on his skull, and scolded: "You daredevil, tell me, when did the regiment commander lie to you." β
The daredevil, Du Maoshi, said unconvinced: "Before crossing the river, you said that you were the first to cross the river to eat white buns for the big guys, but after the battle, you ate black nests!" Hit Wei County, you were the battalion commander at that time, you said that after the battle, our battalion could be divided into at least two crooked handles, but then there was none, and all of them were wrapped up in the 81st Regiment of the 79th Division! Also, our regiment was the first to attack Puhai, you said that you would take us to see the neon lights on the Puhai Road, as well as the Bund, but after the defeat, we slept on the road all night, and as soon as the follow-up troops arrived the next day, you pulled us all back to the countryside! And ......"
The "daredevil" was about to continue, but was interrupted by another chestnut with Wang Qixiu's smile and his hand. He sat up straight and chirped at the warriors in the boat:
"As long as you kid remembers clearly, grandma's, I don't remember, okay boy, treat me as a tenant, don't you? If you want to settle accounts after the autumn, it's against you, what's wrong with the black nest? When Lao Tzu herded cattle, he couldn't even eat the black nest! Besides, hehe, comrades, what's that crooked haode? Look at what we're using now, 81 bar, 85 heavy! Hehe, that dead crooked handle is a ball, don't say it's two, you put a row of more than a dozen in front of me now, I don't even look at it! What's that, isn't it? Hehe, comrades, there are so many people in that place, it's really not interesting, what's so nice about neon signs? Haven't we all seen the electric light cannon? I'm telling you, it's no different! And the Bund, which was built by foreign devils, what can that mean? Tell Lao Tzu to go and Lao Tzu won't go, if he goes, he will pee, and he will be ashamed of those foreigners. β
Political Commissar Hu Ming smiled and said: "Okay, okay, Lao Wang, don't blow it, but comrades, let's change the shotgun now, let's just say that the digital camouflage uniform on our body, who wore this dress before?" The landlord Lao Cai wore silk and satin, but he didn't wear this strange object either! Even the socks, underwear, and shoes have been replaced with new ones. Isn't this more fun than watching neon signs and the Bund, it's real? β
Yao Xiaole, the machine gunner of the regimental guard company, nodded violently and said: "What the political commissar said is that these new shoes are really comfortable to wear, and the rubber soles are much softer than the Kuomintang shoes we captured. The towel was as soft as a cloud, and I saw that many comrades were reluctant to use the towel, and they all said that they would keep it for the future and take it home, and some said that they would take it to their daughter-in-law as a dowry. But this steel helmet is too heavy, more than two pounds, I think it's still happy with a bare head. β
Wang Qixiu smiled: "Steel helmet must be worn!" Otherwise, your head will be broken in the future, and you kid will not be happy. β
As he spoke, Wang Qixiu took out the big front door that the division headquarters had just distributed to each soldier before leaving, and lit it, and political commissar Hu Ming hurriedly instructed that the higher authorities had stipulated that only one cigarette should be lit in the boat at a time, and several cigarettes should not be lit together, otherwise the vent would not have time to ventilate. β
In this way, the battle-hardened commanders and fighters of a shipload chatted all the way, smoked cigarettes and sang songs, and did not take the vicious battle at dawn tomorrow seriously.
Finally it was dinner time, and the head of the regiment, Wang Qixiu, came to the top and said: "Comrades, tonight's dinner is open to foreign meat, everyone take out the compressed biscuits that were sent before and eat them." Come on, come on, I'll teach the big guy, how do you tear this thing. See this little bite? Hey, by the way, just tear it up, I ate it once in the division, it's so fragrant! β
As soon as they heard the regiment commander's order, the soldiers couldn't hold back any longer, and they all dug out compressed biscuits from the brand-new stuffed military backpacks that had just been distributed.
The daredevil, Du Maoshi, curiously tore open the vacuum packaging of a pack of biscuits, and suddenly a rich milky fragrance came to his nose, Du Maoshi put the biscuits under his nose and took a deep breath, only to feel that all his internal organs were filled with this milky fragrance, and he couldn't say how comfortable he was. He put the biscuit in his mouth and bit it, and with a "clatter", the biscuit shattered in his mouth, mixed with saliva and immediately melted, and a sweet smell of milk powder suddenly filled the entire cabin.
Heavy Yao Xiaole stuffed a mouthful of compressed biscuits and exclaimed vaguely: "It's delicious...... Hmm...... It's delicious! β¦β¦ It's so sweet! β¦β¦ Hmm...... Head! β¦β¦ It smells so good! β
Wang Qixiu smiled and said, "It's delicious, right?" I knew the big guys loved it. I ate ten pieces in one go, and I was killed. β
The big guys who ate the compressed biscuits had a dry mouth, and they picked up the newly issued Type 78 steel military kettle and drank water. Some of the soldiers also carefully picked up the crumbs of biscuits and stuffed them into their mouths, and everyone felt that this delicious dry food was the first time they had tasted it, and it should not be wasted.
Political Commissar Hu Ming said: "Let's drink water sparingly, wait for two o'clock tomorrow morning, after we eat the second meal on the ship, everyone will go to the faucet in the front cabin and stop drinking, and keep it for after landing." β
