Chapter 5: My Militia and My Soldiers (2)

Chen Dazhu, the officer on duty, took the group to the regiment headquarters, looking at the dilapidated house, a few tattered tables and chairs, and the map on the wall that was half bitten by rats, Su Tong couldn't help but feel a little discouraged, this is really a mess.

After everyone sat down, Su Tong looked at Chen Dazhu who was standing on the side, and asked with interest, "Chen Dazhu, what year are you a soldier?" ”

"Report sir, I am a soldier in the seventh year of the Republic of China (1918), and I was formerly the commander of the third battalion and three companies of the 26th Regiment of the 37th Division of the 29th Army in the Northwest."

"Oh?" At this time, even Wang Dayong next to him was interested. "You are the soldier of the commander of Feng Zhi'an (the commander of the 37th Division)?"

"Yes"

"Then how did you get here?"

"During the Great Wall Anti-Japanese War, I participated in the broadsword team and was seriously wounded at Xifengkou. I had to go back to my hometown to recuperate from my injuries, and after I recovered from my injuries, I was supposed to go back to the old army, but I saw that the old lady at home had no one to support, so I stayed here and joined the militia to eat. Chen Dazhu said gloomily.

The group was suddenly in awe, and Su Tong stood up and gave a non-standard military salute to Chen Dazhu.

"I can't do it, I can't help it, you're a chief, you can't give me a salute." Chen Dazhu hurriedly shook his hand.

"Why can't you do it, I will kill the little devils all over the field at Xifengkou, you deserve this ceremony, all of your big knife teams are good, and none of them are afraid of death." Su Tong is colorful.

Chen Dazhu said with a bitter face: "Sir, to be honest, who wants to die if he can live his mother." But at that time, the brothers only had three bullets each, and the bullets were all gone, so we had to fill them with our lives, and I don't know how many good brothers fell on the way to the charge! As he spoke, Chen Dazhu's eyes turned red.

There was a sudden silence in the room, "The bullets are all gone, and we have to fill it with our lives." These simple and unpretentious words kept echoing in Su Tong's ears. When he saw these materials in later generations, Su Tong just observed as a spectator, and he couldn't imagine how an army that couldn't even eat enough, wore straw sandals, wore ragged clothes, and had an average of only three bullets per person to fight with the army with enough ammunition and planes, tanks, and artillery to help. But when he came to this magnificent era and personally participated in hearing the story of the parties, Su Tong knew that they relied on a spirit, relying on the spiritual heritage of the Chinese nation that has lasted for 5,000 years. With this spirit, such a person, the Chinese nation will never perish. Su Tong's heart couldn't calm down. In the middle of the ring, Su Tong patted Chen Dazhu on the shoulder: "Good brother, I promise you that this will not happen again in the future, you go down now, ask the brothers to unload the grain and pork on the truck first, hand them over to the cooking class, and tell the brothers that everyone will eat openly tonight." ”

"Yes," Chen Dazhu replied, turning to leave.

"Wait," Su Tong stopped him again, "From today onwards, you will be the deputy head of my militia group." Okay, it's okay, go ahead. ”

Chen Dazhu saluted and left silently.

After Su Tong watched Chen Dazhu leave, he turned his head and said to Wang Dayong: "Company Commander Wang, you have also seen the situation here, the militia must be completely rebuilt, and the work is complicated. I don't even have a working man with me right now, and I'd love to see you stay and help me, not for me. ”

Since giving Wang Dayong a pistol that night, Wang Dayong's attitude towards Su Tong has greatly improved, after all, the mouth of eating people is soft, and the hands of taking people are short. Now that he saw Su Tong officially soliciting him, his heart began to waver. After being silent for a while, Wang Dayong said slowly: "Thanks to the chief, if Dayong refuses, he doesn't know what to do, but I'm worried about Chairman Zhang's side."

"Chairman Zhang, I'll go and say, I think he still has to give me this face. If he doesn't let him go, I'll go to my sister-in-law to sue him for his troubles, and let him sleep in the living room at night" Su Tong interrupted Wang Dayong's words, and said a little scoundrel.

Yes, this is Chairman Zhang's sworn brother, and it is not a betrayal of Chairman Zhang to join him. Thinking of this, Wang Dayong's mood suddenly brightened. "Then Dayong will hand over this life to Tuanzuo in the future." Wang Dayong raised his head and said to Su Tong.

"Haha, good, good" Su Tong laughed happily, and there was another subordinate who could be called.

"Congratulations to Commander Su for adding another fierce general." At this time, Xi Hanqian, who was next to him, also came over to have fun.

"County Magistrate Xi smiled, I'm a bare-bones commander now, and I have to start everything from scratch. County Magistrate Xi, I still have to trouble you."

"Head Zhang, please speak, as long as someone can do it, he will never refuse." Xi Hanqian said it beautifully, but he didn't agree to anything. Su Tong scolded in his heart, this old fox is really the master who doesn't see rabbits and doesn't scatter eagles, it seems that he won't cooperate happily if he doesn't give him some benefits.

"That's the case, County Magistrate Xi, you see that there is a serious shortage of personnel in our militia group, and the rest of the people are also old, weak, sick and disabled, so I want to set up a recruitment office in the county seat, and ask County Magistrate Xi to help Zhang Luo and Zhang Luo in Duolun."

The militia is now seriously understaffed and must be recruited. And to recruit soldiers in the county seat, it is inseparable from the support of the county magistrate, so Su Tong said this.

"Well," Xi Hanqian groaned for a while.

"Of course, I heard that the house of the county government axe is in disrepair, and even your office is leaking when it rains, my brother really can't bear it, and my brother is willing to donate 5,000 yuan to repair the house of the county government."

"Well, the militia is seriously understaffed, it's time to recruit troops, and Xi is naturally supportive" Xi Hangan nodded.

"County Magistrate Xi, there is a way to give beauty with red powder, and give a sword to a martyr. I have a small gift for you here, and I hope that the county magistrate will not refuse. After speaking, Su Tong took out a beautiful Nike brand gold pen from his pocket and handed it to Xi Hanqian.

Wang Dayong thought to himself behind his back, why is this so familiar!

Xi Hanqian liked this golden pen at a glance, he claimed to be a literati, don't literati just like this thing?

"No problem, the recruitment is on someone Xi." Xi Hanqian patted his chest and promised.

Su Tong couldn't help but sigh that the power of the sugar-coated cannonball was really indestructible.

After the matter was discussed, everyone was happy. Su Tong instructed Tie Niu to immediately ask Ma Jun to allocate 5,000 yuan to Xi Hanqian. Ma Jun is now guarding a truck inch by inch, and there are all of Su Tong's current belongings on it, 300,000 yuan.

In the evening, the campfire in the militia station was brightly lit, and everyone was as happy as if it had been a New Year. Whether it was the soldiers of the pistol company or the militia members, they were all eating and drinking openly. Su Tong and Xi Hanqian drank slowly on the side, Wang Dayong and Chen Dazhu accompanied them, and Tie Niu, a loyal bodyguard, served as a bartender on the side.

Xi Hanqian took a sip of wine, took advantage of the wine, and said with a big tongue: "Brother Su, can you tell the old brother that you have a good time, but why do you have to go to this place where birds don't to be the leader of this militia group with his head pinned to the waistband of his trousers?" ”

Su Tong was silent for a while, pointed to the east and asked, "County Magistrate Xi, can you tell me who is occupying the land in Rehe in the east now." ”

I don't know who replied next to "myself".

"Who occupies the three eastern provinces behind the Rehe River?"

"It's still me." Su Tong answered the question by himself and took another sip of wine: "Thinking of me, our ancestors have created countless brilliant cultures, and the continuous history of 5,000 years has made the Quartet come to congratulate, but now in our hands, we have been ridden by a small country to the neck and." As the descendants of Yan and Huang, I am worthy of the ancestors and ancestors, I came here today, there is only one purpose, that is, to fight devils, I will never put down the gun in my hand if I don't kill the little devils, I always firmly believe that the Chinese nation will stand again in the forest of the world. ”

Many people were drunk that night, including Su Tong.
