March of the 28th year of the Republic of China (1939).

After more than three months of arduous training, the 39 th Group Army finally ushered in a large-scale all-army contest, which was first launched in each regiment, with the company commander with the worst results directly demoted to platoon commander, and the company with the best results representing each regiment to participate in the final contest, and the final winner was awarded the pennant and honorary title of "Tiger Company."

For the sake of this pennant, the commanders of all divisions and brigades secretly held their breath.

The Taihang branch of the Central Military Academy suspended classes today, and the cadets of the junior and senior command classes came.

On the rostrum, the seats in the front row were all empty, but officers at all levels of the 39th Group Army, such as Lu Xiufeng, Chi Chengfeng, Cao Xinglong, and Li Yulong, filled the back rows of chairs.

"His grandma, this pennant is about to be decided by our new 9th Division, and no one is allowed to rob it from Lao Tzu!"

"Just your new 9th Division? Dream, in front of our Baoshan Master, do you dare to do it? ”

"Donkey said, if Lao Tzu is also an infantry brigade, what can this pennant do to you?"

"Okay, don't you all fight, are you tired? With my '[***] First Battalion" here, you still want to grab the pennant, isn't that a flea on the tiger's head? ”

"His grandma, don't be too crazy about your one-eyed dragon, see you on the school field when the time comes!"

"Chi Chengfeng, I'm ashamed of myself, but compared to the combat effectiveness of the troops, it's really not to bury you, your new 9th Division is too far behind our Tumen Fortress Garrison Brigade."

"His grandmother, Lao Tzu can't see your arrogance, why don't you go down and compare?"

"Okay, it just so happens that I haven't dealt with anyone for a long time, and my hands are itchy."

Saying that, Chi Chengfeng and Li Qinglong stood up from the viewing platform, and they were about to get off the stage to compete, and Li Yulong and others next to them were still coaxing blindly.

Cao Xinglong couldn't help but shouted: "Okay, there will be guests coming later, let others see it, what are you like?" ”

When Cao Xinglong said this, Chi Chengfeng and Li Yulong also felt that it was not good, and sat back with big eyes.

If Yue Weihan is here, he will definitely not stop the two from fighting, and will even fan the flames, as the so-called soldiers are bearish, and they will be bears in a nest, if the chief officers are all wilting and stuffy gourds, what good soldiers can they bring? Only aggressive officers like Chi Chengfeng and Li Qinglong can bring out a group of roaring tiger and wolf soldiers!

As soon as Chi Chengfeng and Li Qinglong sat down, Yue Weihan and Liu Yi appeared with a large group of guests.

The guests who were invited to watch the ceremony this time were really not young and old, and they were star-studded, Commander-in-Chief Yan of the Second Theater of Operations, Hu Zongnan, Deputy Commander-in-Chief and Commander of the Zhongtiao Mountain Theater, General Zhu of the Eighth Route Army, General Peng, Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Eighth Route Army, Commander Liu of the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army, Political Commissar Deng and others all came.

In addition, there are quite a few media reporters.

The guests took their seats, and the big competition began.

On behalf of the 181st Division, the Baoshan Division, the new 6th Division, the new 9th Division, the Tumen Garrison Brigade, the Taihang Garrison Brigade, the Cavalry Brigade and the Artillery Brigade, the "winning companies" appeared one after another, and formed eight neat phalanxes on the colonel's field.

Chief Yan immediately complimented Yue Weihan with a smile on his face, but Hu Zongnan had a gloomy expression.

Mr. Zhu was secretly happy in his heart, but Mr. Peng didn't know that Yue Weihan was already his comrade, so his face was also very solemn, as a veteran of a hundred battles, Mr. Peng could see at a glance that this group of officers and soldiers on the school field had a strong momentum of "who else should I be", this is definitely a steel army that can fight big battles and tough battles!

Yue Weihan nodded to Liu Yi, and Liu Yi got up immediately and stepped forward to preside over the competition.

The competition is divided into three categories, namely shooting, physical fitness, and hand-to-hand combat!

The first shooting, 180 people in each company, each with a bullet live ammunition target, and finally calculated the total score, the company with the most rings was the best, the results of the competition, the 1st battalion and 1 company of the Tumen Garrison Brigade won 1736 rings, won the championship in one fell swoop, after Liu Yi announced the results, Li Qinglong couldn't help but be extremely proud, but Chi Chengfeng was depressed.

In the second physical fitness, 180 people in each company collectively carried weights for cross-country running, and the company with the largest number of people who ran 10 kilometers within the specified time won, and the result was that Li Qinglong was in the limelight, and his 1st battalion and 1st company all reached the finish line within the specified time, and other companies were slightly inferior in comparison.

At this time, Li Qinglong was even more proud.

Chi Chengfeng said extremely depressedly: "One-eyed dragon, there is really yours." ”

"It can't be helped." Li Qinglong said proudly, "The name of the first battalion in the world is not for nothing. ”

"His grandma, don't be too fucking complacent." Chi Chengfeng said viciously, "There is one last hand-to-hand combat." ”

"You're even more useless in hand-to-hand combat." Li Qinglong pursed his lips and said disdainfully, "Except for the group of soldiers in the Special Warfare Brigade, if other companies want to win my 1st Battalion and 1st Company, dream of it!" ”

Hand-to-hand combat is actually hand-to-hand group fighting, eight companies in the demarcated area scuffle, the first company to be driven out of the demarcated area to lose, the winning company into the next round, the final duel between Li Qinglong's 1 company and Chi Chengfeng's guard company, the result is Li Qinglong's 1 company to the end.

Li Qinglong not only won five oceans, but also lost a lot of money and lost troops to Chi Chengfeng, Liu Yi really couldn't look at it, and immediately knocked Li Qinglong and said: "Okay Li Qinglong, can you deceive others with your little means, and you can also deceive the general seat?" The head seat has long seen that you kid has transferred the top of the entire brigade to the 1st company, right? ”

Lu Xiufeng, Cao Xinglong and others suddenly realized that the one-eyed dragon was really cunning.

"His grandmother!" Chi Chengfeng will also be overwhelmed, and said angrily, "Pay back the money, pay me back five oceans!" ”

"What are you doing, do you want to rob or what?" Li Qinglong hurriedly put five pieces of ocean into his pocket and said, "The 1st Company is the sharp knife company of our brigade, I originally planned to transfer all the top men of the brigade to the 1st Company, this competition is just in time, you can't be biased, try to help Chi Heizi say good things." ”

"His grandma, don't fucking nonsense, hurry up and pay back the money." Chi Chengfeng is unrelenting.

At this time, Yue Weihan in the front row suddenly snorted softly, and Chi Chengfeng and Li Qinglong suddenly didn't dare to say anything more.

Liu Yi smiled, then got up and stood behind the microphone and announced loudly: "Now, start the queue performance!" ”

The so-called queue style is actually the highlight of this big competition, compared with shooting, weight-bearing cross-country and hand-to-hand combat and other martial arts events, the queue performance is more intuitive visual effect, more can reflect the style of an army, when the eight companies lined up in a neat queue, stepping on the neat steps from the front of the rostrum, Chief Yan and others were deeply regretted!

Especially when each company walked to the front of the rostrum, the chief officer yelled "to the right...... See! Then the 180 men of the whole company brushed up on the ground in unison, and with a rhythmic snapping sound, 180 medium and formal rifles with good bayonets were also raised forward in unison, and in an instant they converged into rows of cold bayonets.

Seeing this scene, even Chief Yan, an old warlord, couldn't help but get excited!

The reporters who were invited to watch the ceremony pressed the shutter of their cameras one after another, and recorded the heroic [***] phalanx and the neat bayonet forest on film forever, and a few days later, these photos appeared on the front pages of major newspapers in the Kuomintang region, and they were all accompanied by enthusiastic special reports!

………… Yucheng, the official residence of Chairman Chiang.

A central newspaper was quietly placed on Chairman Chiang's desk, and the front page was printed with a huge photograph of the 39th Group Army's military parade, in which the officers and men of the 39th Group Army were in high spirits and in a strict queue, and the rows of white bayonets almost confused Chairman Chiang's eyes.

At this moment, Chairman Chiang's mood was extremely heavy.

Although it was only a photo, Chairman Chiang clearly felt the murderous aura of this army!

Demonstration, Yue Weihan is demonstrating naked, not only to himself, but also to him Jiang someone, Yue Weihan is using such a way to warn him Jiang someone: My 39th Group Army has become a climate, I can't help me, and you Jiang someone can't do the same, so it's best not to mess with me!

Director Dai stood bent over and stood beside him, not even daring to breathe.

The Military Command Bureau sent people to assassinate several times, but in exchange for Yue Weihan's blatant demonstration warning!

Li Meng, the ace killer that Director Dai has spent a lot of effort and carefully cultivated, is directly thrown into Yue Weihan's arms, and Director Dai can drip blood in his heart now when he thinks about it, this is really a loss for a woman and a soldier.

………… The western suburbs of Beiping, Cuimingzhuang.

The same central newspaper was also placed on Okamura's desk.

Okamura Ningji put down the newspaper and said to Tanabe Shengwu, who was standing in front of him: "Tanabe-kun, it seems that Yue Weihan has not been idle in the past three months, you look at these companies in the photo, whether it is the mental outlook of the officers and soldiers, or the neatness of the queue, they are not inferior to the guards division of the Imperial Army." ”

"It's just a guard of honor for them, deliberately showing off their force." Tanabe Moritake said abruptly, "What's more, a neat queue does not mean that the soldiers can fight bravely, these companies look like that in the photo, but when they really want to be on the battlefield, the imperial army only needs one charge to defeat them." ”

Okamura Ninji shook his head and said, "Tanabe-kun, all the field divisions and regiments have almost rested and replenished, right?" ”

"Hello." Tanabe Moritake bowed his head abruptly and said, "Report to Your Excellency Commander, the field divisions and regiments have been rested and replenished, and the base camp has once again allocated ammunition reserves for a while, and now, the main force of the front army can launch a large-scale offensive operation against Taihang Mountain, Yimeng Mountain or the Sulu border at any time!" ”
