Chapter 60: Eating is Important!

After the meeting on the expansion of the independent regiment, He Zhengdao, who was the three giants of the independent division, held a military and political discussion that lasted for more than an hour. When the meeting ended, He Zhengdao also found that the time was really not early.

Fortunately, according to the feedback from the patrol and alert troops, there was no major chaos in the city. Under the surprise attack of the Independent Regiment, almost no Qian's troops escaped. The entire Renhuai City has been completely controlled by the Independent Regiment.

The prisoners who had been escorted from the city were also gathered in the military camp in the city and taken into custody. Although many prisoners still felt terrified. But in this situation, no matter how worried they are, they can only wait patiently for the result.

The independent regiment that took over the barracks, the material warehouses in the city, and the city defense, except for the troops on duty and patrol, all the rest of the troops also moved into the barracks. This barracks, which can accommodate nearly 10,000 troops, is also enough to accommodate the troops of the independent regiment to rest.

After the meeting, He Zhengdao still took a few guards to check the defensive arrangements of the military camp and the city. After finding that there was no problem, he returned to the barracks to rest. It didn't take long to rest before he was woken up by the guards.

As the commander of an independent division, He Zhengdao also knows that for a long time to come, it is impossible to just want to have a good rest. But seeing Yao Shengjun's heavy dark circles, he also knew that he was not the only one who worked hard.

asked Li Xiangdong, the commander of the reconnaissance battalion, to summon him, and He Zhengdao said: "Xiangdong, according to our practice in Xishui, in the name of the Central Army's suppression of the rebellion, the city defense ban will be implemented. Post notices so that people and businesses don't have to panic.

In addition, let the soldiers of the reconnaissance company change into civilian clothes to investigate, those officials and gentry in the city are rich and unkind. In the afternoon, you brought all of them to the barracks, and the arrest was carried out in the name of collusion with the Red Army. Do you understand? ”

'Yes, Commander! I know! ’

If you want to say that the independent division is now the most accustomed to He Zhengdao's operational command style, Li Xiangdong must be in the first place. After this conquest, the reconnaissance company followed He Zhengdao to fight, and gradually became accustomed to this kind of combat method that did not follow common sense.

Those officials and gentry who are not benevolent to the rich are undoubtedly the most afraid of the Red Army. But He Zhengdao, now in the name of the Central Army, but in the name of fornicating with the Red Army, arresting and even raiding their homes, it is estimated that many officials and gentry will feel wronged!

But such an approach is believed to make many people applaud. It's just that Li Xiangdong thinks that when those Red Army know that the people who confiscated these officials and gentry are actually the Red Army, what will they think?

With the officers and soldiers of the reconnaissance company, the notices reviewed by He Zhengdao were posted in Renhuai City one after another. Many people also feel a little inexplicable. Some time ago, didn't these Qianjun troops defect to the Central Army?

Why did the Central Army suppress them again in the blink of an eye? Do these Qianjun troops stationed in the city have the courage to rebel?

But soon the people heard the rumors that spread in the market: "You don't know yet, do you? I heard that Chairman Wang and Hou Zhitan both lost the battle, and now they are being detained by the Central Army in Guiyang! These Qianjun troops, I'm afraid they want to revolt! ”

In any case, as these rumors spread, many people believed what was posted on the notice. Although they feel that the lockdown has caused inconvenience to their lives. But everyone knows that don't expect people in the military to be reasonable.

As the saying goes, when a show meets a soldier, it is unreasonable. Now that the soldiers are in chaos, these soldiers with guns in their hands are the most unprovoked objects. Last night's battle didn't affect them, and it's already worth thanking.

Because of the implementation of the rule that only entry and exit are allowed, even the officials and gentry who were suspicious of this central army did not dare to inquire into such a major military incident. Even the officials who served as the magistrates of Renhuaicheng County wanted to see the so-called central military commander, but they were rejected by the sentry.

The sentinel's reason for preventing them from entering the barracks was that "the matter concerning the rebellion has not yet been dealt with, and no unrelated person shall enter the barracks." I would like to meet with our division commander and wait until the investigation is over. ”

Hearing that it was a division commander of the Central Army who suppressed the rebellion, these gentry also felt a little incredible. But looking at the uniforms of these officers and soldiers, as well as the weapons they are equipped with, they seem to be the same as the Central Army in their impression.

In short, even if some officials and gentry doubted the true identity of these Central Army, no one was stupid enough to say these suspicious words. Like the people of the city, they could only wait quietly for news.

After spending a morning dealing with some things that needed his own approval, He Zhengdao also felt that there were a lot of things. But looking at the list of seizures brought by the political commissar, he couldn't help but smile.

'Nice! It seems that this time, we have finally made a small profit. Sort out these seized materials, you roughly sort out. Except for the supplies we need to carry, the rest of the supplies are ready to be handed over to headquarters.

These materials, you let the logistics team work hard at night, and send them all to Moutai Town. I believe that tonight, the Red First Regiment of the Red Ninth Army should be able to arrive there in advance, and the supplies will be handed over by then.

As for these prisoners, we will select some of them in the afternoon and assign them to the logistics regiment. The rest of the troops, when the time comes, let the troops escorting the supplies be escorted to Maotai Town and handed over to the headquarters for management. That way, we can travel light. ’

'Good! I'm going down and getting ready now! ’

For He Zhengdao, it is impossible for the Independent Regiment to accept all these prisoners in Renhuai City. But he didn't think it was good to abandon them in Renhuai City. Therefore, it is the best choice to transfer it to the headquarters for processing.

Next, the situation faced by the main army should be easier than that of the independent regiment. And so many political cadres at the headquarters scattered these prisoners and distributed them to the main forces, and these prisoners could not make any big waves.

Most of the prisoners of the Qianjun who had been frightened for a night felt a little surprised when they looked at the breakfast sent by the Red Army. Although breakfast was just a simple porridge and pickled steamed buns, it also surprised many ordinary soldiers.

In these years, the treatment of ordinary soldiers and ordinary people is actually about the same. Three meals a day is undoubtedly a very luxurious way to eat in the eyes of many poor people. Many troops still maintain two meals at noon and at night.

Although the main force of the Guizhou Army, after being absorbed by the Central Army, received the military salary paid from above. But in fact, the money allocated by the Central Army really fell into the hands of ordinary soldiers, and it was undoubtedly pitiful.

Embezzlement of military salaries is a common thing in many national * military units today. Therefore, seeing that the Red Army actually prepared a bowl of porridge and two steamed buns for them, many prisoners were extremely surprised.

It's just that after breakfast, the Red Army, who put them in the meal, told them to continue to stay honestly in the barracks detention area. As for what to do with them, these Red Army fighters also did not say anything.

Compared with some officers, they began to mumble in their hearts, but many ordinary soldiers felt that if the Red Army could provide them with three meals a day, the treatment of prisoners seemed to be good!

Until one after another, officers were taken away by the Red Army, and many officers began to be a little worried. They were well aware that the Red Army was particularly strict in its treatment of officers compared to the treatment of ordinary captured soldiers.

Some of the officers were taken away and then released shortly after. But some officers took them away and never returned. For a time, many captured officers and soldiers felt that those officers who did not come back were only afraid that there would be less luck.

When many of the captives smelled the smell of food coming from the canteen, they were also looking forward to what their lunch would be. After the Red Army ate in the canteen one after another, the prisoners finally saw the carts carrying the meals.

'Line up! Be honest, please dare to make noise and squeeze again, and cancel lunch at noon! ’

Looking at the aroma of the meat tumbling in the barrel, many captives felt incredible. It's already a rare thing to be able to eat a full meal. Now that there is meat in this dish, the treatment of this captive must be too good!

The Red Army soldier in charge of cooking also said in a timely manner: "Do you think the meal we prepared for you is too good?" Let me tell you that these meals were all given by our division commander, and what you eat at noon is the same as what we eat.

The rice tube is enough, and the dish is a spoonful per person. Eat as much as you want, hit as much as you want. If anyone wastes it, the consequences are serious. If you want to eat more, you can save some of this dish! This kind of food, many of you don't usually eat! ”

Listening to the words of these Red Army soldiers, many brave soldiers also nodded and said, "Yes! I can't even remember how long it had been since I tasted meat. It seems that it is better to be a prisoner than a soldier! However, this is not a guillotine meal, right? ”

Some prisoners felt that this treatment was a bit like a preparation for the cause of death before going to the execution ground. Hearing this, the Red Army soldiers still smiled and said: "You really want to!" If I really want to kill you, one bullet is enough, so why waste food? ”

As soon as these words came out, many captives also felt that they were reasonable. But for many ordinary soldiers of the Qianjun Army, they don't have so many ideas. All they want now is to hurry up and eat meat.

In these years, if there is a good way out, he will not choose to be a soldier and carry a gun. Many of them joined the Qianjun army in order to have a full meal, or were forcibly pulled into the Qian. In their hearts, the world is big, but after all, it is still the biggest food!
