readx;
On the day of the month, the army horn in the ** battalion on the north bank of the Yangtze River was loud, and the roar of the independent division outside the brigade came to the playground from three directions distributed in the wide camp, and the fully armed officers and soldiers wore the latest standard of the Central Army's khaki uniform, wearing dark green steel helmets, and lined up quickly, acting division commander Hu Jialin and deputy division commander Gu Changfeng also specially returned from the military academy, together with chief of staff Lu Guang, deputy commander of the new first brigade Huang Zhi, commander of the new second brigade Lu Yixuan, commander of the new third brigade Zhao Rui and other generals and colonels, A grand welcome ceremony was held for An Yi, the commander who returned to the army
The convoy slowly drove into the camp gate under the gaze of more than 10,000 soldiers, and slowly stopped in front of the newly completed heavy-eaves review stand. The pen and the fun pavilion shook his head www.biquge.info stopped Hu Jialin from leading a brigade commander to report to him, and took two steps forward with his hand skills, looking at the officers and soldiers from the space where the brothers quickly gave way, gently brushed away Chu Er's hand, and puffed up his chest. Raised his hand to arrange the general's big brimmed hat, checked his own style and discipline button, and whispered the order "Let's take a look at the brothers first", then he raised his steps and walked straight to the banner of the model battalion of the first battalion of the division's independent regiment in the middle of the queue, and stopped in front of the battalion commander Liu Yan, who was full of excitement and tears in his eyes, and Zhang Yingzu, the battalion deputy and instructor, slowly raised his hand to salute the battalion commander Liu Zhi, who could no longer suppress the leakage in his heart, stepped forward and saluted, raised his head and closed his eyes. With tears streaming down his face, he reported loudly: "Report to the division, all 556 officers and soldiers of the model battalion have arrived, please show the division!" ”
"Take a break!"
An Yi put down his hand and said with a smile: "Lao Liu, and Lao Zhang, I am very moved and surprised that you are unwilling to be promoted to the regiment commander and continue to stay in the model battalion." However, I want to tell you that there should not be only one model battalion in the whole division and not only one model battalion in the whole army, and if you officers with outstanding and experienced military achievements do not leave the model battalion, we will not be able to spread the spirit of our model battalion quickly, and it will also block the way for the promotion of the outstanding brothers under your command. I hope you both consider my opinion. Senior Brother Zhao told me that his position as commander of the Third Brigade and One Regiment, deputy regiment and instructor was still vacant. ”
"Master's seat,"
Liu Yi lowered his proud head silently.
Zhang Yingzu stepped forward and tearfully promised: "Division, subordinates resolutely obey the orders of the division, and tomorrow" will go to the Third Brigade to report tomorrow.
An Yi nodded with satisfaction, patted the shoulders of the two brave subordinates, walked to the excited model battalion soldiers in one step, slowly patrolled around with a cane and nodded away, and continued to walk towards the artillery regiment, the first brigade, the second brigade and the third brigade.
An Yi sighed, climbed onto the review stand surrounded by all the generals and colonels, stopped in front of the microphone, looked down at the more than 10,000 elite soldiers under his command for a long time, took the tea handed by Huang Yingwu and moistened his astringent throat, took a deep breath, straightened his chest and stood straight:
"Brothers have worked hard! Seeing everyone, my Ai Yi is very down-to-earth, just like seeing my own brothers and relatives, and I thank the brothers for the honor and hospitality they have given An Yi, and I am very grateful."
"Shizuo" thanks to Shizuo! ”
"We miss you," An Yi raised his hand and motioned to the excited brothers in the audience to be quiet: "I returned to Nanjing last night. Your commanders and representatives of outstanding soldiers came to the wharf to pick me up, and their strict military discipline and cheerful spirit left a deep impression on all the commanders of the Central Military Commission and the General Headquarters, as well as on the representatives of all walks of life in Nanjing, and friends from the press, and they praised the officers and men of the Independent Division for their military appearance, military discipline, diligence, and love for the people.
Brethren, do not think that these are any words of praise, for they make me feel ashamed!
The meaning in the old man's words is actually very simple, what he really means: there is an army that fights for the country, treats the people well, helps the people, does not oppress, does not abuse, does not steal, and does not rob their compatriots, they will be satisfied, and such an army will be able to get their support, even if it smashes the pot and sells iron and eats chaff and vegetables, the people will raise such an army! Brethren, our people who have suffered for many years, this is how simple it is to ask! ”
There was silence in the audience, the hearts of the soldiers were greatly touched, and An Yi's voice sounded again:
"Fortunately, the brethren are all doing well! Earlier this morning, I went to the graves of more than 10,000 brothers who had donated their lives to pay respects, and I saw more than a dozen elderly people silently cleaning the graves. After clearing weeds and maintaining the resting place of our brothers, we learned that these old people were from the surrounding villages. From the completion of the martyrs' tombs to the present, as long as it does not rain, they will come to sweep the graves of our brothers. The incense in the Martyrs' Shrine never stopped.
From the beginning of my crossing the river and boarding the wharf, the people of the ** town and the villages along the river who knew that I was coming back gathered on both sides of the three-kilometer-long new road, beckoned to me, and greeted me loudly, the village chief and the village elder of Linxiang Village stopped my car, grabbed my hand and asked for warmth, and told me that the soldiers of our independent division are all good, fair trading, respecting the old and loving the young, not bullying them, and helping them build bridges, roads, and canals, help orphans and widows, and help the villagers in ten miles and eight townships to see a doctor for free. The office said that after the autumn harvest is over, the villagers will join forces to make palpitations. Kawamian is touching, brethren!
I'm very proud of An Yi, and I'm proud that our independent division has so many such good soldiers!
We are proud of our independent division officers and soldiers who have made great achievements since the Northern Expedition and have the spirit of an exemplary battalion! I believe the brothers are also deeply proud and proud. Because you are the first army in this country that has been poor and weak for hundreds of years, and the fathers and villagers of the poor people regard it as their own soldiers! You are worthy of the model battalion and the title of steel hero."
The applause of the audience was thunderous, and the faces of the soldiers were full of joy and pride, and An Yi continued: "Brothers, everything is not easy to come by! Our country, our fathers and fellow villagers have given us great honor and love. It has given us great respect and happiness, given us great courage and surging motivation to overcome all difficulties, what can be compared to such an honor? As a soldier, as a member of the revolutionary army in the new era, what can be greater than being loyal to the country and the nation? Brothers, cherish the hard-won honor, and let us continue to carry forward the spirit of the Model Camp. We will devote our youth and blood to realize the solemn promise made by a soldier: to protect the territory and the people, and to serve the country loyally! ”
"Protect the territory and the people, and serve the country with loyalty!" Protect the territory and the people, and serve the country with loyalty"
"The wolf smoke rises, and the rivers and mountains look north,"
In the earth-shattering singing, Suo Yi solemnly saluted more than 10,000 soldiers in the audience, and the soldiers in the audience returned the salute excitedly, and the singing was even louder. When An Yi boarded the armed transport boat at the dock, the song was still wafting in the sky.
The traffic boat slowly drove and sailed to the Xiaguan Wharf on the other side, Chu Er wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, grabbed An Yi's hand tightly, and reluctantly looked at the martyr's cemetery that was gradually moving away, her heart swelled with infinite reverence and pride, she felt that she had received any welcome and compliment wherever she followed her beloved. None of them can compare to the ordinary villagers holding An Yi's hands on the road, and they are more glorious than the tears and high-pitched singing in the eyes of many thousands of soldiers of the independent division.
From the solemn oath that shook the sky, Chu Er suddenly understood what An Yi had been fighting for in his life; From the ordinary faces of the villagers, who were a little wooden but showed infinite gratitude and hope in an instant, Chu'er finally knew what love was and what was the relationship between the military and the people.
She suddenly felt so small and ignorant. Suddenly I felt so headstrong and selfish. Compared with An Yi, compared with the small and strange soldiers, she felt that she was so pale.
An Yi felt the delicate body leaning on him tremble disorderly, stopped talking with Hu Jialin, Gu Changfeng and other brothers, lowered his head and asked with concern:
"Chu'er, is it cold? I'll go shopping for a few clothes with you when you get ashore. ”
Chu'er raised her head, and An Yi was startled by the tears on her face, and the brothers were slightly surprised when they saw this scene, and then stood up and walked to the bow deck, leaving a small world for An Yi and Chu'er.
Chu'er let An Yi gently wipe away the tears on his face, sucked the red Xiao Yao's nose, and said in a choked voice: "Brother Yi, Chu'er is useless, Chu'er can't help you with anything, and always makes you worry about it"
An Yi suddenly understood Chu'er's feelings, hugged her delicate shoulders, and comforted her in a low voice: "Aren't you helping me now?" For the sake of my career, you gave up the music you love and resolutely entered the business school for further study, isn't this helping me? When you come back from your studies, you will be able to help me and your father manage the larger and larger conglomerates and do our part to revitalize the national industry, isn't that the best help? Also, you are innocent and kind, during the time you served me, you also visited the injured and hospitalized officers and soldiers in the hospital many times, the brothers around me praised my Chu'er, envying me for having such a good woman, your father and Mrs. Kong, Uncle Yu and his wife all praised you for your beauty, kindness and love, all this, don't you feel it? My Chu'er is the best woman in my life! ”
Chu Er trembled violently and hugged An Yi excitedly: "Brother Yi, is it really? Do you really think of Chu'er that way? ”
"It's more real than pearls!" An Yi suddenly said affectionately in Cantonese.
Chu'er's tears burst out of her eyes again, and her happiness spread throughout her body like electricity, she hugged An Yi's waist tightly, took a deep breath, closed her eyes and put them in An Yi's ear, and muttered:
"Brother Yi, Chu'er also gives you a solemn promise: I, Ou Chu'er, am your Anyi's woman, and I will be your female knowledge for eternity and eternity,"
"Of course, you can't run away if you want to." An Yi said with a smile.
"No" Brother Yi, Chu'er has decided, I will be your woman tonight, tonight".
Chu Er said firmly, Rulan's breath surrounded An Yi's whole catty, An Yi opened his stunned eyes and suddenly felt dizzy, and opened his mouth to keep flowing,
