Chapter 37 Number Wholesale
"Both are high-ranking officers in our army. Now that it is the time when the foreign enemy is invading and the country is in danger, the two generals should lead their subordinates to serve the country and resist foreign humiliation together! What does it look like to argue over trivial matters like this? "The chief is the chief, if you don't open your mouth, you will scold everyone on both sides.
"If there are soldiers under the command of the Ninety-ninth Army who are injured, neither dead nor seriously injured, Commander Fu should quickly ask the military doctor to treat them, and if you bring these wounded soldiers to me, will their injuries heal by themselves? Do you still have any compassion for soldiers? Chief Xue pointed at Fu Zhongfang's nose for a while. Commander Fu moved his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but finally lowered his head and said nothing.
"Commander Gao, since Commander Fu has come to you with his wounded soldiers, whether it is your subordinates or not, you should pay Commander Fu some medical expenses. Everyone is a Chinese soldier, is there any friendship with comrades? "After approving Commander Fu and then approving Commander Gao, the commander can make a bowl of water even. However, the meaning of his words was that it seemed that this matter had nothing to do with the 500 Army, and Gao Quan should pay for the medical expenses, which was completely for everyone's sake.
Of course, Commander Gao can't have any opinions on the commander's rhetoric, what they said is very right, everyone is a national army, and we must always take care of the feelings of our comrades!
"Chief Xue is teaching. I am willing to help Commander Fu treat half of the wounded. Gao Quan played a trick again. If he only promised to bear the medical expenses, Fu Zhongfang opened his mouth and quoted a high price casually, if he didn't pay, he would not obey the commander's order, and he would obviously be slaughtered if he paid the money! I'll treat you and treat half of the wounded! Anyway, there is a field hospital in the 500 army, and there is a director of the medical country, and it doesn't cost much to just look at the trauma.
"Good! That's great! Commander Fu, you have twenty wounded there, right? Send ten to the five hundred army to rule! "Chief Xue saw that reconciliation was promising, and hurriedly hurried to seize the time and dilute the mud.
Although Commander Fu felt that such a result was cheaper than Gao Quan, but the commander said so, he couldn't stubbornly refuse to agree. Fortunately, Gao Quan gave a step in this way, and the commander personally came forward to mediate, and he didn't lose face when he spread it, so he took advantage of the situation and got off the donkey.
Chief Xue settled the dispute between the two armies in a few words, and he was in a good mood, and he had the intention of inviting the two army commanders to a light meal, but the secretary came in and said that the next press conference would be held in half an hour, and there was no time to invite guests. Sitting in the position of commander is not idle!
Gao Quan and Fu Zhongfang took the opportunity to leave. The head of the family is in a hurry, and it is already very face-saving to be able to meet for such a long time, and it is a little suspicious that he is not interested in relying here.
Although it was a superficial reconciliation, the two commanders had irreparable rifts in their hearts, and when they left the commander's office, the two of them went their separate ways, and no one cared about anyone.
Gao Quan returned to the 500th Army not long ago, the 99th Army sent ten wounded, with Dr. Li Qi here, these small injuries and illnesses are just a small trouble to be captured, there are few herbs needed, the only trouble is just the time to recuperate.
After this matter was successfully resolved, Gao Quan ordered all the troops of the 500th Army not to casually go to the garrison of the 99th Army in Yingtian to engage in reconnaissance and other military activities!
In November, the official numbers given by the Military Commission to the two brigades of the 500th Army finally came down.
In the Battle of Songhu, the 67th Army suffered heavy losses in the battle against Japan, from army commander Wu Keren, to army chief of staff Wu Tonggang, to division commanders, brigade commanders, and regiment commanders, a large number of middle and high-ranking officers in the army died in the bloody battle against the Japanese invaders, and the troops were almost completely wiped out. The numbers of the 321st and 322nd brigades are subordinate units of the former 67th Army. Zhu Zhirong and Liu Qiwen were the brigade commanders of the two brigades at that time, and the two generals both sacrificed heroically for the country and the people on the battlefield of resistance against Japan. Now these two brigades are only empty numbers, and there is not a single soldier left.
The Military Commission appointed: Zhao Ziming served as the commander of the 322nd Brigade Major General, and the supplementary brigade was directly renumbered as the 322nd Brigade and included in the combat sequence of the 500th Division. The independent brigade was renumbered the 321st Brigade and was assigned to the new 501st Division, and Zhang Yaohua served as the commander of the 321st Brigade Major General. Liu Dongsheng was appointed as the commander of the independent brigade of the 500th Army, which was still under the direct jurisdiction of the military headquarters of the 500th Army.
Gao Quan was stunned by the series of appointments. The senior members of the Military Commission raised the 500 Army to a considerable height just through a few appointments and two numbers, and it was really good!
There are not many people at all, there is not much allocation of weapons and equipment, and with the number of one more division and two brigades, the 500 Army will have jumped from a miscellaneous local army to the main force of the Central Army! In the future, if you meet the devil on the battlefield again, it is obvious that the division commanders and brigade commanders of the Japanese army will take more care of the 500th Army! If it comes, it will be safe. The Military Commission finally showed kindness and wholesaled a batch of troop numbers, and Gao Quan couldn't return it, right?
Liu Qi and Zhao Ziming are the biggest beneficiaries of this expansion of the 500 Army. These two original brigade commanders were all sealed by Gao Quan privately, and the supplementary brigade and the special brigade have not been officially recognized by the Military Commission, so they should be regarded as temporary workers. Now it's good, the chairman of the committee ordered that the two brigade commanders have been converted from temporary workers to regulars!
Zhang Erxiao looked at Liu Qi's triumphant appearance, and he was very angry, but he was helpless. Is the official appointment document issued by the Military Commission the same as child's play? Fortunately, his troops finally added a number number, and compared with the original independent brigade, it always looks much better in terms of face, and Brigade Commander Zhang is a little comforted in his heart. It's just that Liu Qi's triumphant face, Zhang Erxiao is a little unaccustomed to it.
"Xiao Qi, when I was in the Independent Brigade, my record was always good. Now that the name of the Independent Brigade has been given to you, you will have to work the battlefield in the future, and don't add to the name of our Independent Brigade! ”
"Brother Erxiao, in fact, I still like the name Special Brigade. If it weren't for the military seat saying that the order of the Military Commission could not be changed, I would have wanted to go to the war zone to find Chief Xue and see if I could still use the original special brigade. The Special Brigade sounds much more majestic than the Independent Brigade! "How can Liu Qi's mouth be forgiving? As soon as Zhang Erxiao's voice fell, the response from that side came.
"Just you? It's not that my brother is underestimating you, do you know where the door of the theater command opens? These two people have long been accustomed to fighting, although Liu Qi's words are not listening, Zhang Erxiao is not annoyed, and he pouts and retorts back with a word.
The two of them received orders from the military headquarters, stumbled and quarreled all the way, and returned to their respective units. Although it was only a number, there was a lot of work to be done in the army. These two brigade commanders should pay close attention to the re-establishment of the military flag, the holding of a plenary meeting of officers and soldiers, and the further stepping up of conscription and other troop building.
The original crew of the 500 Army's Independent Brigade will be changed to the 321 Brigade in the future, and the Special Brigade will become an independent brigade. Zhang Erxiao and Liu Qi both understood the important points here, and they didn't dare to be careless at all.
