Chapter 2 Breaking the Cocoon and Flapping Wings to Dominate the Industry (3)

The rain was pouring down, and the world was hazy. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

On the embankment of the Hankou Military Wharf, the officers and men of the 44th Division of the 24th Army, who had taken the lead in withdrawing from the North China front, were lining up in an orderly manner to board the ship, and the freighter wharf on the side, with a special springboard eight meters long, connecting the wharf with the three 2,000-ton freighters, was driving up to the deck one after another with the southbound trucks, wheeled armored combat vehicles, and anti-aircraft artillery trucks.

Between the military wharf and the freight wharf on a spacious high platform paved with cement, with steel pipes and plastic shed roofs to build a shelter from the wind and rain, the singing group of the South Sichuan Art Troupe, is using singing to appease the hearts of the soldiers, every soldier passing by the high platform, will can't help but echo the humming for a while, a body of fatigue between the humming, seems to disappear. On the highway far away from the causeway and the freight terminal, the convoy and the queue of officers and men stretched in a winding way, and many literary and artistic soldiers with allegro in their hands cheered on the soldiers.

Under the high platform, in the back seat of a tightly covered jeep, Gu Changfeng, deputy commander of the 24th Army and commander of the 44th Division, saw Han Yu pull the car door and get in, and said with a smile:

"The work of your art troupe is very good, from Baoding to Hankou, you take turns to the carriages to propagate and agitate, the pain of the separation of comrades-in-arms, after your spring breeze and rain, morale is much higher, and now you are sticking to your posts in the wind and rain, it is really a woman who does not let her eyebrows!"

Han Yu wiped the water droplets next to his sideburns: "The female soldiers saw that their comrades-in-arms were depressed and unsmiling, and they felt uncomfortable. Fortunately, the brothers who stayed in North China also belonged to the An Family Army, so everyone calmed down and thought about it. ”

An Jin, deputy captain of the special brigade directly under the headquarters, who was sitting in the co-pilot's seat, turned his head: "The art troupe is indeed indispensable, thirty-six brothers from our special brigade have been transferred to Yang Jiuxiao's forty divisions in the name of veterans to help enrich their special service battalion, I feel very distressed...... Later, I watched the performance of the art troupe and listened to the instructions of my eldest brother, and my heart was relieved a lot......"

Gu Changfeng's face was pale, and he seized the opportunity to knock An Jin: "You kid use your brains more, if our three divisions still maintain a complete structure, Chairman Jiang will definitely transfer us to Jiangxi to fight the civil war." None of our An Jiajun wants to meet with their former brothers and sisters, let alone wave the butcher's knife at their own compatriots. According to the commander, at most, in three or five years, the army will make a comeback, and the commanders of our divisions think that instead of needlessly consuming the brothers in the civil war, it is better to find ways to preserve combat power, and it is not yet time to tear the skin with the central government, so there is this time to discharge the army on the spot and quietly disband. ”

Han Yu was a little depressed: "I don't know what happened to my hometown, *** said that last month Chairman Jiang set up a camp in Nanchang, personally organized and commanded a larger-scale encirclement and suppression operation in various Soviet areas, established the strategy of combining protracted warfare with fortress doctrine and the tactics of attacking and encircling with defense, and built blockhouses around the Soviet area, and at the same time, implemented a cruel armor protection system, jointly protected all households, and implemented joint sitting, it is estimated that the life of the villagers will be sad in the future......"

An Jin scolded and said: "That's the big brother, if it's me, I won't buy anyone's face, it's a big deal to put on a posture and pull away, I don't believe who can ...... us."

Gu Changfeng laughed: "You kid is exactly the same as me at the beginning, you don't know, when the Northern Expedition attacked Nanchang, I used a knife in front of Principal Jiang, so he has always had a bad impression of me, and I don't bother to pay attention to it...... After following the commander for many years, I am much calmer and more able to think about problems. Xiao Jin, do you really think that our strength can stand on its own? ”

An Jin was stunned: "Looking at the central army and local warlords, it seems that no one can threaten us......"

Gu Changfeng shook his head disapprerovingly, looked at the blurry rain curtain outside the window, and sighed and said: "The commander is far-sighted, and he expects the enemy plane to be the first step by step, admire!" Let's take this incident as an example, if we don't take the lead in disarmament, give an explanation to all aspects, and wait for the order of the Central Military Commission to be issued, what do you think we should do?

"If you obey the order, everyone will not be happy, if you disobey the order, first of all, North China will be in chaos. Bearded people are naturally of the same mind as us, but other than that, who are our allies? There are the Jin Sui Army, the Northwest Army and the Northeast Army around, as well as several other divisions of the 17th Army, which will definitely be thinking about taking advantage of us. As long as Chairman Chiang seduces him to take advantage, Liu Xiang and Liu Wenhui, who have long been greedy for the development of southern Sichuan and are eyeing each other, cannot think of anything else they will do except to do it, and when the time comes, we will cooperate with the central army in Chongqing to move forward, and our southern Sichuan will be in danger. He Jianjian is the chairman of Hunan Province, but he has always had no way to take Xiangxi, if they are given an excuse, the 44th Army will be contained in Hunan, Wang Jialie in Guizhou has been pondering how to unify the whole territory, with the support of Chairman Jiang, Guizhou will not be better, after such a big war, whether southern Sichuan can be kept is a question, let alone development and construction...... All in all, this disarmament is very far-sighted, except for some of the brothers we have laid off, who have really gone home and started a family, the rest have been put into the fraternal army, and others are helpless about it, which is really clever. ”

An Jin was dumbfounded when he heard this, and finally scratched his head: "It's really complicated, it turns out that there are so many doorways here!" I really think that as my eldest brother has publicly proclaimed, our disarmament is to respond to the call of the central government and the central government to shift the focus of our work to the field of economic construction and the development of people's livelihood. ”

Han Yu pursed his lips and smiled when he saw An Jin's appearance: "So you are only the deputy captain of the special brigade, not the commander of An Jiajun." ”

Who knew that An Jin nodded solemnly: "That's right, so I just need to bring the soldiers well, and the other calculations have nothing to do with me......" Speaking of this, An Jin remembered something and asked: "Sister Yu, the "Hymn to Heroes" that you have been singing in the past few days is really composed by my brother?" ”

Han Yu said with some regret: "Yes, in fact, this song is restored by me based on the memories of Brother Shen, Brother Lin and other big brothers, it is said that the commander witnessed the casualties of our army after the battle in Luandong was attacked by the Japanese army, and he was moved, so I deliberately sorted it out, who wants to be sung once it is sung, and it will be quickly recognized by the soldiers." It's a pity that after arriving at the Baoding camp, he was in a hurry every time he saw the commander, so he didn't check with him. ”

Gu Changfeng withdrew his gaze from the window, glanced at Han Yu, who was slightly melancholy, and said ambiguously: "Don't worry, don't worry, when you return to the Syrian Mansion, there is time to get along, I believe that the boss will teach you, haha!" ”

Han Yu's expression darkened, although most of An Jiajun thought that he had some intimate relationship with An Yi, otherwise, with a little-known little girl, how could He De be able to become the head of the major of the Art Troupe? But in fact, since the farewell of the Syrian Mansion, the two have almost never been alone, even if they meet on weekdays, most of them smile and nod their heads, after the art troupe entered the Baoding camp, although the two are close at hand, but it is difficult to meet, several times Han Yu has met An Yi with such and such an excuse and obtained consent, but they were all disrupted by sudden things, which made her feel helpless while being depressed.

At this time, almost all the officers and soldiers had already boarded the boat, and the soldiers of the art troupe on the high platform also began to pack their things, Han Yu politely said goodbye to Gu Changfeng and An Jin, An Jin smiled and handed a raincoat to Han Yu, Han Yu shook his head, went straight out, and soon ran to the high platform.

……

In the same rain, in Yanbian County, on the banks of the Yalong River, a geological exploration team is heading along the turbid winding river to the Renhe region on the Sichuan-Yunnan border under the guidance of local Yi guides.

The leader of the exploration team is Zhu Zizhen, a geologist sent by An Yi to the second batch of studies at the University of Frankfurt in Germany, accompanied by Hua Youmin, a professor of geology at Jiangnan University of Technology, and six of his students, in addition to a platoon of officers and soldiers sent from the southern Sichuan garrison. In the whole Sichuan, Yunnan, Hunan and Guizhou regions, there are also dozens of site exploration teams active at the same time, striving for the self-sufficiency of the smelting industry in southern Sichuan.

The results of these months, so Zhu Zizhen is very excited, no one knows, the original in the Sichuan-Yunnan border of this barren land, actually contains such rich mineral resources, only for the current income, vanadium titanium magnetite reserves are far in the discovery and mining of Qijiang, Shuicheng and other iron ore, in addition to the exploration of cobalt, chromium, gallium, scandium, nickel, copper, lead, zinc, manganese, platinum and other rare and precious metals, especially exciting is that in this area also found a large number of coal resources, very conducive to local construction and smelting.

However, the disadvantage of using local materials and building is also very obvious, the whole area is in the high-altitude area, the mountains are high and the valleys are deep, and the basins are staggered, and there is only one dirt road for horse-drawn carriages to pass to the outside world, and when it rains, the road is muddy and difficult to walk.

At the same time, the Han, Yi, and Miao are mixed here, and for hundreds of years they have been filled with endless vendettas and resentments, and even Liu Wenhui, who has ruled this place for a long time, is limited to stationing troops and tax officials in some county towns, and his tentacles have not penetrated deep into the mountains, dams, and river valleys.

Hua Youmin stumbled and almost fell off the cliff, but fortunately, the soldiers who were closely protected beside him had been prepared, grabbed his hand, and dragged him back, so as to avoid the doom of falling into the river.

"This ghost weather, it has been raining for more than ten days in a row, there won't be any problems, right?" Hua Youmin looked up at the dark sky and said with some annoyance.

Zhu Zizhen looked at the Yalong River that was tumbling fiercely under the cliff: "The water has risen several meters, and if the rain does not stop, it will inevitably be a flood." ”

Hua Youmin was very worried: "When we get to the station, let's send a telegram to the Syrian government to remind them." ”

Zhu Zizhen nodded, and at this time, a mountain cliff opposite the rift valley suddenly made a loud noise, and I saw that under the washing of the rain, a mountain peak suddenly collapsed, turned into a rolling mudslide, and rushed towards the Yalong River below the rift valley.

Zhu Zizhen and Hua Youmin glanced at each other, and both showed melancholy.
