Rows of jet-black barrels, columns of soldiers running briskly carrying shells back and forth, plus artillery squatting on the gun emplacements to carefully adjust the ruler data, this is a complete heavy artillery position!

The reconnaissance battalion, cavalry regiment, and independent brigade of the 500 Army, several thousand people came up and surrounded this artillery position. The artillerymen on the position looked at these soldiers of the national army in surprise, and one by one stopped their work and exchanged ears and discussions, I don't know why so many people are not on the battlefield, why are they coming to their artillery position?

"May I ask what part of your army is? What is the point of coming to our artillery position? "The one who came out for questioning was a colonel of the national army, who looked like an artillery commander.

This time it's Liu Qi's turn to speak, there can't be anything that Junzuo himself comes forward for, right? There were the largest number of independent brigade troops present, and Brigade Commander Liu thought that he was the most able to negotiate with the artillery colonel on behalf of the military seat, "We are the troops of the 500 Army, and we have come to take over all the defense of Quzhou on the order of Commander Gu of the Third Theater. In order to ensure the victory of the battle, all personnel and materials in the city must be uniformly dispatched and commanded. From today onwards, all the troops, weapons, supplies, and baggage in Quzhou City will belong to the 500 army dispatch. ”

Brigade Commander Liu's waist was straight, although he didn't say anything to despise the other party, but just because he stood tall on the horse and looked at the other party condescendingly, it was as angry as he was.

"You!" The artillery colonel stood in front of the horse and looked at Liu Qi dumbfounded, who is this, why is he so angry? This is going to the battlefield to fight, Liu Qi, like Gao Quan, took off the collar badge representing the military rank on the collar, and the colonel didn't know what kind of officer this was. After swallowing a mouthful of spit and calming down his emotions, the colonel still decided to ask the identity of the other party first, "May I ask who this Excellency is?" "He looked like an officer on horseback, but the artillery colonel didn't believe he was Gao Quan. The commander of the 500th Army should not be so easy to show up.

"I am Liu Dongsheng, the commander of the independent brigade of the 500th Army." Liu Qi finished reporting his name and slowly got off the ground from his horse, "May I ask who the colonel is?" ”

"Hello Brigade Commander Liu!" People are really one level higher than themselves! The artillery colonel raised his hand and saluted, "The lower officer's name is Yue Heng, and he is the commander of the Third Independent Artillery Regiment of the Tenth Group Army. "Knowing that there was a major general and brigade commander standing opposite, Regiment Commander Yue was still neither humble nor arrogant, and spoke to Liu Qi on an equal footing. Although he is only a colonel and regiment commander, the superior yamen is large, Yue Heng's artillery regiment is under the direct jurisdiction of the group army, and ordinary brigade commanders and other officials really don't put it in the eyes of Commander Yue.

"It turned out to be Head Yue." Liu Qi nodded, and returned the salute to the artillery commander, "So, the artillery unit here is the artillery regiment of Commander Yue?" "If it is an artillery regiment under the jurisdiction of the group army, it is not so easy to manage! Liu Qi glanced back at Gao Quan.

"Well, not exactly." Yue Heng obviously didn't expect Liu Qi to ask such a question, and he was a little embarrassed when he answered, "This is only a part of the Independent Artillery Regiment, and there is also a part of the artillery unit of the Eighty-Sixth Army. "His independent artillery regiment has been crippled in the south of the city by the devil's artillery retaliation, and the remaining troops with less than half of them fled into Quzhou City with artillery, and now this unit is Chen Yiding gathered all the remnants of the 86th Army's heavy artillery, and the surviving artillery of the independent artillery regiment were combined together and handed over to Yue Heng for unified command.

"Oh? I see! A look of surprise appeared on Liu Qi's face. It is said that he should never have this kind of expression at this time, other people's artillery was beaten so badly by the Japanese army, you don't show sympathy, but you are still happy, isn't that schadenfreude! How can a major general and brigade commander of the national army be of such quality?

"Report to the military seat, artillery company commander Wen Chengzong is here to report!" A young and heroic captain saluted Gao Quan, who was followed by more than 100 soldiers, carrying more than a dozen grenadiers and mortars on their backs.

"Wen Chengzong? Heh, why are you here? Where's your leader? Gao Quanmeng saw that Wen Chengzong hadn't recognized him yet, and after thinking about it for a while, he knew who he was. This is the mortar company commander of the 5th Security Brigade that he captured, a student who returned from the Frunze Military Academy of the Soviet Union. Since this kid graduated from the artillery department and worked as an artillery soldier in the puppet army, Gao Quan simply handed him over to Fan Xiaosi and let Wen Chengzong show his strengths in the artillery regiment. Unexpectedly, Fan Xiaosi actually sent him.

"Oh, the artillery regiment will not be able to cross the river until the sappers have erected the pontoon bridge, so Commander Fan asked me to bring a small artillery company to come over first and wait for the dispatch of the military seat." Wen Chengzong seemed a little happy when Gao Quanneng thought of him, and his voice was raised twice.

"Yes, yes." Gao Quan is somewhat satisfied with this arrangement. There is no bridge on the Qujiang River, and even the army commander can't conjure up a bridge for a while, even if he asks the engineer regiment to repair the pontoon bridge, it will take time. At this time, he was preparing to take over this artillery position, and it would be good to have an expert who was proficient in artillery by his side, even if this person was a captain and company commander. "Foreign students, come with me to see this artillery position, if you do a good job for me today, I will promote you to be the battalion commander!"

"Yes! Thank you for your support! "Wen Chengzong's head is high, this beauty in his heart, this is good luck, it can't be stopped! A few days ago, he was a traitor and a puppet army, but since he met Commander Gao, it was a lot of good luck, and now he has the opportunity to be a battalion commander! Battalion commanders, majors, that's the middle officers in the army! Wen Chengzong felt that his whole body was fluttering at this moment.

Now that the artillery officer has come here, the work of accepting this artillery position can now be started! Gao Quan took Wen Chengzong and walked quickly to the commander of this artillery position.

"Is it Head Yue Heng? This is Wen Chengzong, the commander of the artillery battalion of my 500 Army, and now he is staying on behalf of our army to coordinate and command this artillery position. Gao Quan walked over and directly designated the person in charge of the 500th Army on this artillery position. He said it casually, but Wen Chengzong's arms trembled excitedly, in a word, he is the battalion commander in a word, Commander Gao!

"What? Battalion Commander Wen coordinates the command? Hey, sir, who's the supreme commander on this front? Who gave the order that was the supreme order? Who are you? Yue Heng and Gao Quan unconsciously used honorific titles when they spoke, and even Brigade Commander Liu had to stand aside when he saw Gao Quan, needless to say that this was a commander who was even higher than the brigade commander. The artillery commander wondered, where did the 500 Army get so many big officials? Is his artillery regiment so popular?

"Yes, Battalion Commander Wen is the temporary commander of the 500th Army left on this artillery position, as for who has the final say, you two can discuss it. Didn't I say it, if there are things that can't be decided after discussion, Battalion Commander Wen will report to the military department, and the military department will give you a clear order. As for me, I am Gao Quan, the commander of the 500th Army. ”
