After a long time, Lin Zhifeng stood up and spoke; "Comrades, the chief of staff has already reported the number of soldiers we sacrificed in this ambush battle, especially the battle of ambushing the Japanese transport convoy, the lives of forty soldiers! Comrades, we have completely grasped the initiative on the battlefield, and launched an ambush war without any defense from the enemy, the number of sacrifices has reached the probability of three to one between the enemy and us, which means defeat for the ambush war, you can think about it, if it is in the same encounter, then our sacrifice is unimaginable, so let, especially the ambush of the Japanese transport convoy, the effect of this ambush is very unsatisfactory, there are serious command errors, and under the sudden fierce artillery fire of the Japanese army, Our commanders did not make the first command response, organized a fire counterattack in the shortest possible time, and suppressed the enemy's artillery fire, which caused such a great sacrifice, so our commanders must bear a heavy responsibility! Of course, I also want to praise on behalf of the column, ambushing the five battalions of Shuangji Town, they have the initiative on the battlefield very well, and they charge out in time, and the probability of destroying the enemy has basically reached 1 to 30, which is the most ideal number in ambush warfare, and it is also the most glorious example since the start of the war of our independent column.

After Lin Zhifeng finished speaking, he sat back in his seat, Ning Chenlong stood up and looked at the room full of people, he was in a heavy mood; "Comrades, just now the political commissar summed up the experience of this ambush battle, pointed out the shortcomings of the fighters, and of course praised the cumulative quality and outstanding performance of the soldiers, I want to say that especially among the soldiers of the transport convoy of ambush devils, I did not expect that the Japanese army was able to quickly organize an artillery counterattack under the pressure of our intensive firepower, our commanders and soldiers are all new fighters who have entered the battlefield for the first time, and they are indeed a little panicked under the fierce artillery bombardment of the enemy. It was during that panicked time that we suffered great losses, and I, as Chief of Staff, had the main responsibility for underestimating the enemy and the battlefield, and I asked for organizational punishment. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, instructor Duan Xingguo stood up and spoke generously; "I have the most say on the issue of the battlefield, I have participated in twenty or thirty times with the devil's soldiers, there are assault battles, encounter battles, positional battles, and more ambush battles, I am quite satisfied with this ambush war, I have no objection to the chief of staff's survey of the battlefield and the arrangement of firepower, what I want to tell you is that the changes on the battlefield are ever-changing, there are many unexpected, and this ambush battle is also the most tragic of all the fighters I have participated in. The devils encountered this time are also the most stubborn and ferocious enemies that I, who have participated in twenty or thirty battles, they do not surrender, as long as there is still a breath of air, they will fight with us to the end, I have only heard that the Yokohama brigade is the trump card unit in the devil's army, this time I was fortunate to see, their quality and spirit are indeed first-class, our troops can fight with such troops, for us, it is a considerable improvement, I believe that our troops have gone through this baptism of artillery fire, The next time they encounter heavy enemy fire, the soldiers will never panic again. ”

After he said his opinion in one breath, he sat back in his seat and quietly watched the inside of the room.

There was silence in the meeting room again, and everyone's eyes looked at the captain Zhao Sihai, who was the main commander of this ambush battle, and hoped that he would be able to speak.

Zhao Sihai blushed, drooped his head, and never spoke.

Lin Zhifeng stood up again, her eyes flashed with wisdom, but a little cold, she picked up a piece of letterhead from the table, looked at it and put it down, and spoke; "Comrades, here is a letter of resignation from Comrade Zhao Sihai, the captain of the brigade, he is willing to ask to resign from the post of captain, and the organization also solicits the views of the comrades, everyone can talk about it!"

Niu Shuigen, the commander of the first battalion, raised his hand and spoke; "I object, I know that in this ambush battle, the captain was not able to react from the enemy's fierce artillery fire in time, and did not organize an effective counteroffensive in time to suppress the enemy's artillery fire, which caused us a lot of casualties, but the captain, including us, is the first time to see such fierce artillery fire, which is also understandable! Who wasn't born to fight? They all learned and grew up gradually during the war. ”

Lin Zhifeng asked sternly; "Comrade Commander of the First Battalion, many of your first battalion are old hunters, with good marksmanship, quick skills, and special familiarity with the mountain environment, your battalion should be the main force of the upcoming anti-clearing and sweeping sweep in the mountains, such a big sacrifice is a great loss to our column?"

Niu Shuigen was also a little sad, nodded and said; "I am a party member, I am naturally conscious, and I also know that the losses this time are quite large, and the situation on the battlefield at that time, if it were not for the snipers and chief of staff of the special combat team to call in time to mobilize the bombing team to suppress and eliminate the artillery of the devils, the consequences would be unimaginable, but the captain is an old party member and the secretary of the old village branch, and it is still inappropriate to remove him from the position of captain."

Lu Caiting also stood up and spoke loudly; "I also oppose the resignation report of the brigade commander, our party and our army have all been tempered and grown up in the war, and we cannot unload the burden and quit because of one or two unconscious mistakes."

Long Congfeng, commander of the second battalion, stood up and spoke; "I think judging from our current situation, our column is still very young and can't withstand a big toss, after this ambush war, the devils will definitely send troops to clean up and sweep our generals and Dongqiao Village, the war will be very cruel, the situation will be very grim, the column leaders make some appropriate adjustments, and push the leaders who understand military affairs to the front line, which is appropriate for us to fight back against the devil's sweeping work, I don't think there is anything that can't be done."

Niu Shuigen was about to refute him, but Zhao Sihai suddenly stood up and said solemnly; "There is no need to dispute it, I also made up my mind to write this resignation, I don't understand the military, I don't understand command, I am in this position, and my heart is also heavy, comrades! This is a war, this is related to the lives of the soldiers, I hope that the organization will be seriously considered, I will do a good job in other positions, support the column, isn't it the same to kill the enemy and serve the country! ”

Instructor Duan Xingguo also stood up, his voice loud and authentic; "I agree with Comrade Zhao Sihai's resignation report, Comrade Zhao Sihai is an old party member with high consciousness, he is right, this is war, sacrifice, and bloodshed! It is necessary to let people who understand military affairs take up the post of brigade commander, so that they can unify command and deployment, and make preparations for the anti-clean-up and sweeping work. ”

The venue was quiet for a while, and Lin Zhifeng stood up again, his voice sonorous and powerful; "Comrades, I now announce a resolution on behalf of the leaders of the column, and this resolution is also decided by me and Comrade Zhao Sihai after repeated study, Comrade Zhao Sihai has been transferred from the original captain to the deputy captain, and the original deputy captain Comrade Lu Caiting is now the captain of the brigade!"

As soon as the political commissar's words fell, the entire command room burst into thunderous applause.

Lu Caiting's face was flushed with embarrassment for a while, this decision came too suddenly, he stood up and wanted to object, Lin Zhifeng pointed at him with his finger and said, "This is the decision of the organization, don't say anything." ”

Ning Chenlong also stopped him with his eyes, in fact, this decision is of extraordinary significance at this extraordinary moment, and the use of personnel who understand military affairs as the main leaders is even more popular, and the applause in the room has already shown this.

The applause gradually subsided, and Zhao Sihai's face suddenly brightened, he was sincere and honest; "Comrades, this time my Lao Zhao should also be at ease, you don't know, since the last time I took the soldiers to practice to experience live ammunition, more than ten soldiers have been sacrificed, plus so many soldiers sacrificed in this ambush battle, my Lao Zhao has not slept peacefully, this heart is panicked, and the pain is terrible! I am an old party member, and I also have a high consciousness, military command, I don't understand! If I am forced into the position of brigade commander, not only will I not be able to lead the troops to fight well, but I will also bring great casualties and losses to the troops, and I will not be able to do this, and only by letting a young comrade who understands military affairs, such as Comrade Lu Caiting, who understands military affairs and is able to kill the enemy with his own hands, be able to win the battle. ”

The room resounded with warm applause, and everyone applauded Zhao Sihai, who was highly conscious, able to make Xian, and magnanimous.

After the leadership of the independent column was adjusted, Lu Caiting was appointed as the captain, and the people of the column were even more agitated, their morale was high, and the spiritual outlook of the soldiers was completely new.

At the garrison of the Imperial Association Army in Qudao Village, outside the west gate of the county seat, Daddy Qin came to the watchtower of the garrison with a basket and Qin Sanhammer, and asked the soldiers standing guard whether Qin Erhammer was in the barracks, and the soldiers standing guard immediately asked; "The person you want to inquire about is our company commander, who are you?"

Daddy Qin put down the basket, took out the cigarette pouch from his waist, lit the fire and replied unhurriedly; "My old man is his father, tell him to come out to see me!"

As soon as the soldier standing guard heard that it was the company commander's father, he immediately called someone in to report it, and after a while, he saw an officer wearing a large disc military hat come out and muttered while scolding; "Who is so bold as to dare to pretend to be my father?"

The officer rushed to the gate of the barracks, raised his eyes, and suddenly stared at him dumbfoundedly, and said in surprise; "Oh, it's really our father!" hurriedly stepped forward and shouted to Daddy Qin; "Daddy! Is it your old man's house? He looked at Qin Sanhammer again, a little shyly; Third brother, you are here too, why do you still want to come to see my brother? ”

This officer is Qin Daddy's second son Qin Erhammer, since he joined the Imperial Cooperative Army, Daddy Qin has been furious, not allowing him to enter the house again, stating that he no longer recognizes his son, so today Daddy Qin and Qin Sanhammer came to see him, he was naturally surprised and surprised.

Daddy Qin glanced at him, and took two puffs of the flue; "We haven't seen each other in a while, haven't we? Let's go, find a place to have a drink and talk. ”

Qin Erhammer saw that his father suddenly changed his attitude today, and he was overjoyed and busy currying favor with the authentic way; "Today is the day of the market, let's go! Go to a tavern in the market town and talk about home. ”

The three of them went to the village to find a tavern in the market town, and asked for a single room on the second floor of the tavern, Qin Erhammer ordered some dishes, and went to the single room to close the door.

The shopkeeper brought them the wine and food into the room, closed the door casually, Qin Erhammer hurriedly poured wine into the bowl of his father and younger brother, and then poured wine into his own bowl as well, he took the wine bowl and saluted his father; "Dad, the child is not filial, he used to make your old man angry, this bowl of wine, the child will compensate you."

Daddy Qin picked up the wine bowl and drank it with his second son, Qin Erhammer hurriedly poured wine into his father's bowl again, and the expression on Daddy Qin's face looked very comfortable and comfortable.

Qin Erhammer and his brother Qin Sanhammer raised a bowl and drank together, and the three of them also ate some vegetables, Qin Erhammer's heart has been up and down, he knows that his father has always been hot, jealous and hateful, so he forgave himself all of a sudden.

After drinking for a while, Daddy Qin suddenly asked Qin Erhammer; "Second hammer, are you your father's son?"

Qin Erzhu hurriedly replied; "Dad, of course it's true, even the appearance and movement are similar! Isn't there necessarily a fake? ”

Daddy Qin nodded and said solemnly; "You used to be young and did some wrong things, and your father didn't blame you, but now there is an opportunity for you to atone for your sins and let you be your father's son with dignity."

Qin Erhammer's heart shook violently, and he asked with his eyes wide blank; "Dad, what's the matter? Just say it to you, old man. ”

"Good!" Daddy Qin took a sip of wine, his old eyes actually flashed with a startling light, and he said with a little excitement; "The devil is about to launch a sweep against General Ao and Dongqiao Village, and your Imperial Alliance Army will definitely have to sweep together with the devil, and my father wants you to bring your subordinates to join our New Fourth Army, the Mengshan Anti-Japanese Independent Column."

Qin Erhammer let out a long breath and muttered to himself; "General Ao, Dongqiao Village has recently made trouble with the New Fourth Army, it turned out to be your father? Assassinate Japanese traitors in the county town, and ambush Japanese transport convoys on the highway at the foot of the mountain, do you have such ability? ”

Qin Sanhammer knocked on the table next to him; "Second brother, let me tell you, my father has always been an underground party, take the opportunity of this clean-up and sweep, and come back to us with your people and guns."

Qin Erhammer slammed the table and said indignantly; "Who wants to be a traitor and a second dog, my brothers and I are fed up with the devil's nest, okay! I took the opportunity of this sweep to bring the people in my company who were willing to defect to the New Fourth Army and guns, and said, what do you want me to do? ”

Daddy Qin's wrinkled face smiled like a flower, he lowered his voice and whispered something to Qin Erhammer's ear, after Qin Erhammer heard it, he also smiled happily, and the three of them kept drinking in big bowls.

In front of the gate of the watchtower of the headquarters of the third battalion, there was a fortune teller wearing sunglasses and holding a banner with 'Little Half Immortal' written on it, and there was a man wearing glasses who looked like a teacher and a young man standing next to him, who claimed to be looking for the commander of the third battalion.

Zhen Lingshan, the commander of the third battalion, hurriedly walked out, went to the gate of the barracks to look at the fortune teller and the teacher, and there was a young man who looked like an entourage, very strange, I didn't know him, he couldn't help but be a little annoyed, and asked angrily; "The three of you are coming to me? Who wants fortune telling? You little tricks on the rivers and lakes dare to bring them to the barracks? Let's go, so as not to suffer from flesh and skin. ”

The fortune teller snorted lightly, shook the 'little half-immortal' banner in his hand, and replied unhurriedly, "Life is full of ups and downs, and this half-immortal is also entrusted by the old man to come to replace the camp leader. With that, he turned and prepared to leave.

Zhen Lingshan suddenly felt that the fortune teller was extraordinary, and there was a faint breeze blowing his sleeves in his gestures, and he immediately waved his hand to stop him; "Wait—"

The fortune teller stopped, and Zhen Lingshan asked puzzledly; "Who's the gentleman is entrusted with to give me guidance?"

Mr. Teaching chimed in beside him; "The old man came from afar, this is the hospitality of the third battalion commander? Let's find a quieter place, let's sit down and talk slowly. ”
