An Yi did not go back to Xiaguan Daying, but took He Jinhan's car directly back to the liaison office in Houzai Lane, Chen Yu, who had become a wealthy real estate tycoon in Nanjing, was excited to see An Yi, and quickly took An Yi to the study of the main building.

"Chief of Staff Yang called in the afternoon to report on the affairs of Xiangxi, it seems that the brothers of the 44th Army have passed the dangerous period, Chen Zhibiao is arrogant, he also thought that the group of bear soldiers he brought was the brothers of the Second Regiment of our Independent Division, this time he was taught a hard lesson by Deng Bin and Deputy Commander Zhang Hongluan, it is estimated that he will not be able to slow down for ten days and a half months, and he will not dare to go deep alone!"
Chen Yu still regarded Yang Bin as the chief of staff, and did not call Yang Bin his new official position.
An Yi was silent for a moment after reading the telegram, and then asked Chen Yu to come to the map of the two lakes to take a closer look: "Qiancheng (now Ji, Hunan)?" Is the headquarters of the 44th Army set here? ”
"Yes, my subordinates think it's the best choice to settle in Qiancheng."
Chen Yu obviously made a lot of efforts to this: "Tongren in Guizhou, Youyang in Sichuan and Yuanling in the east are all within 100 kilometers, and it has always been the gateway to Xiangxi that must be fought for by soldiers. Another favorable condition is that the surrounding area is full of opium-growing areas, and I heard that there are a lot of medicinal materials such as gastrodia and eucommia, and these two items alone are enough for military expenditure. A smile appeared on Chen Yu's delicate face.
An Yi shook his head: "It is okay to be here in the early stage, but it is not a long-term solution, the 6-way traffic and water transportation are extremely inconvenient, it is estimated that all of them are Mabang Road, and it is necessary to take the first line of Changde, Tripping County, and Cili to solve the transportation problem, otherwise it will be difficult to grow up by sneaking through Chongqing and Fuling."
You send a telegram to Brother Yang, asking him to transfer the 44th Army Senior Ye and Senior Zhang: 1. It is suggested that Senior Ye respond to the call of Commander-in-Chief Chiang and lead a group to Nanjing to participate in the Northern Expedition. 2. It is recommended that Senior Zhang continue to retain the number of the 44th Army, try his best to recruit soldiers from Xiangxi, enrich the system regardless of background, and send military salaries and supplementary equipment within 20 days; Third, Deng Bin and others can be left to set up a military family teaching group, and they can also be selected from among the officers and soldiers to be sent to the old Nanchang base for training; Fourth, as soon as possible to strengthen ties with the northwest Shizhen Department of the province, dredge the trade route. ”
"Understood!"
Chen Yu took notes on An Yi's dictated message, handed it over to An Yi for review, and then went to the confidential room.
An Yi went to his bedroom on the second floor to take a shower, put on his clothes and walked to the window to light a cigarette, looking at the night outside the window and falling into deep thought, he didn't know that in the boudoir with only one courtyard wall, a beautiful woman was also wearing a sable fur coat he had given, and walked to the telephone in the front hall several times and returned gloomily, standing silently in front of the dim window.
The next morning, Qiancheng, Xiangxi.
There were shouts and footsteps in the military camp in the left of the house, and Ye Kaixin's adjutant Ye Daolin strode towards the bishop Deng Bin, who was silently watching the officers and soldiers drilling, and warmly informed him that the military seat was invited.
Deng Bin nodded, wiped off the hoarfrost condensed on his mustache, followed Ye Daolin into the lobby of the military headquarters and raised his hand to salute, Ye Kaixin and Zhang Hongluan smiled and motioned Deng Bin to sit on the rattan chair by the brazier, and handed the call from An Yi and Commander-in-Chief Jiang to Deng Bin.
After reading it, Deng Bin gave it back to Ye Kaixin, took the hot tea handed by Ye Daolin and put it on the coffee table: "I didn't expect the call from Nanjing to come so quickly, what instructions do the two seniors have, please do not hesitate to command." ”
"We'd like to ask what you mean." Ye Kaixin said with a smile: "You're welcome, the virtuous nephew tried his skills a few days ago and won a rich victory in destroying the enemy's thousand and five capturing, and the morale of the whole army was boosted after this great victory, and the army's morale was stable, our two old guys and the lieutenant general and colonel of the army were very impressed!" I hurriedly invited the virtuous nephew, just to hear the thoughts of the virtuous nephew, don't be restrained, please speak out. ”
Deng Bin smiled slightly: "The little nephew is all arranged by the seniors, to be honest, the little nephew is not highly educated, thanks to the year-long teachings of the division, like all the brothers above the company level in my independent division, he has received various military theoretical education and professional training from the division, deputy division commander, chief of staff and instructors, and has mastered a little bit of knowledge."
The battle three days ago was the result of the concerted efforts of the officers and men, and the result of the two seniors' trust in the instructor group of the little nephew, who was only fortunate enough to be complacent after the enemy's successive victories, and lured the enemy to go deep and surprise him, so that he was lucky enough to live up to his mission. ”
Zhang Hongluan and Ye Kaixin looked at each other and smiled, and nodded appreciatively: "Virtuous nephew, how about staying as my 44th Army Instructor and Commander?" ”
"What?"
Deng Bin was startled, and almost knocked the teacup on the coffee table away, his boss An Yi is also a division commander, how can he not be surprised that he is directly promoted to the division commander by a small battalion commander, not to mention that there is no shadow of the tutor, even if there is Deng Bin, he does not dare to agree easily.
Ye Kaixin smiled, waved his hand and said: "Don't be surprised, don't be surprised, listen to our explanation first: It has always been our wish to lead our troops to Nanjing to rely on the Central Army.
Fortunately, God favored me, and when I was desperate, I received the generous help of all the brothers in your division and independent division, and this kindness will be remembered by Captain Lung and will never be forgotten for a lifetime! I decided to follow the advice of your division, respond to the call of Commander-in-Chief Chiang, and lead the officers and soldiers of the First Division to Nanjing to participate in the Northern Expedition. ”
"Big brother Hugh wants to say this, we only need to take a look at Brother Shi Zhen who has just returned to the northwest of the nose, and we should be full of confidence. Brother Shi Zhen only brought back more than 2,000 people at the beginning, relying on the military rank and equipment donated by An Xian's nephew and Yigong, hasn't it grown to the scale of more than 8,000 soldiers now, and steadily occupies several counties in Xishui? ”
After the eldest brother left, the younger brother still had more than 4,000 brothers left, and as long as he had the help of Deng Xian's nephew and the elite instructor of the five parking spaces, he would soon be able to grow stronger again. We lack everything in Xiangxi, that is, there is no shortage of people, there are at least thousands of green forest heroes hidden in the mountains within a radius of 200 miles, and with our vigorous recruitment of new recruits and strict training, it will not be very difficult to recover to the level of 25,000 soldiers within half a year. Zhang Hongluan comforted.
Deng Sheng finally understood that the two bosses had made up their minds, and calling him here was just asking him and his fifty brothers to stay, so he hurriedly stood up and expressed his sincere attitude:
When the little nephew left the old Nanchang dock and boarded the boat, the master had clearly instructed the little nephew, saying when the seniors would let the little nephew leave before he could go back, and the little nephew and the fifty brothers remembered the teacher's advice and did not dare to forget it for a day. The little nephew and the fifty brothers are all from Sichuan and Xiang, which is equivalent to returning to their hometown, there is nothing not used to it, please rest assured that the two seniors have any instructions, and the little nephew must obey the order! ”
"Good! Good! So I'm relieved! ”
Ye Kaixin stood up and excitedly took Deng Bin's hand: "I led my troops to Nanjing this time, which is equivalent to joining the Central Army sequence, taking this step is beneficial and harmless for the future development of our army, and I also realize the deep concern and open-mindedness of Commander-in-Chief Jiang and your division
Now the civil war in Bashu Lian, the conquest of Yunnan and Yunnan, the internal friction in Hunan and Hubei is not stopped, we were forced to the relatively peaceful Xiangxi but also because of the blessing of misfortune, only a year and a half of recuperation and hard work, will be able to break out of a world, so I hope that the virtuous nephew and fifty brothers will stay, work together to start a business, with the full support of An Xian's nephew, with the compassionate help of Commander-in-Chief Jiang, we will be able to revitalize the military prestige, step by step, join hands to play a piece of the country, and it is not in vain to come to this world to walk a while! ”
Deng Bin said gratefully: "Thank you seniors for your trust!" The little nephew will definitely meet Wei Weiye, do his best for the brothers of the 44th Army, and live up to the expectations of the two seniors and our master. ”
Zhang Hongluan nodded at Ye Kaixin, and said happily: "Big brother, I said that the virtuous nephew would stay and help us, now you should rest assured, right?" ”
Ye Kaixin's face was full of joy, and he turned to Ye Daolin and ordered loudly: "Call Commander-in-Chief Jiang and An Xian's nephew immediately, our army can make all preparations for the march within three days, and ask for instructions on the route of the march." ”
"Yes!"
Ye Daolin strode into the inner hall.
Ye Kaixin motioned for everyone to sit down: "I will leave all the light and heavy machine guns and mortars, and let the 10,000 brothers bring long and short guns and a small amount of ammunition, and when they arrive in Nanjing, Commander-in-Chief Jiang will definitely replenish them." It's just that this time I took most of the division, regiment, and battalion commanders away, and I really wronged you! Therefore, the instructor must be established as soon as possible, if it really can't work, let An Xian's nephew send another batch of instructors to serve as the battalion company commander. ”
Zhang Hongluan stroked his thick beard and nodded frequently: "This is also the meaning of the junior brother, it takes time to cultivate by yourself, and I am afraid it will be difficult to cope with the current situation." Secondly, the knowledge we learned back then could not keep up with the current situation, I watched the sword training of Deng Xian's nephew and fifty dispatched instructors, watched the interlocking and fast as thunder three days ago, and watched Deng Xian's nephew's marksmanship, the younger brother felt that he was outdated. After the first battle three days ago and the post-war summary meeting presided over by the instructors in each battalion, the confidence of the officers and men of the whole army was greatly boosted and their morale was restored.
Therefore, the younger brother supported the eldest brother's opinion and asked An Xian's nephew to send another batch of talents over, and at the same time make use of the advantages of the existing instructors to strengthen the training of his own non-commissioned officers, implement the political education unique to the model battalion of the independent division, as well as the various management systems and reward and punishment systems of the independent division, and the younger brother is confident that he will make the whole army look completely new within half a year.
Deng Bin smiled slightly: "Last month, the Jiangxi Chamber of Commerce has successfully established a guild hall in Chongqing and Yichang, and I believe that the people of the guild will come to inspect the local agricultural, commercial and mineral resources soon. ”
Zhang Hongluan asked in surprise: "Did you have a special comment on this in the training content of your master's seat?" ”
"Yes, the division seat said, as long as the people's lives can be stable, the days are getting better and better, there will be more people to support our army, there are more young people to sign up for the army, as long as this is done, we can be invincible, the division finally summed up with a sentence: who can let the people fight side by side with themselves, who is really good.
The little nephew through the old Nanchang and many previous cases comparison, finally understand the good intentions of the division, but has never had the opportunity to do it in person, this time to get the trust of the two seniors so important, the little nephew plans to take this issue to the officers and soldiers to discuss with the brothers of the instructor group, encourage the officers and soldiers to help the people do some hard work, let the officers take out some rice and money to support the widows and orphans, the training of the gong battalion can help the people build bridges and pave roads, repair houses and tiles, the vast majority of our officers and soldiers are from poor families, I'm sure you'll soon understand the benefits of doing so. Deng Bin said with a smile.
Ye Kaixin and Zhang Hongluan glanced at each other and nodded in unison.
