The Red Army, which had successfully joined up with the Independent Division, also felt a little strange about the dinner prepared for them by the Independent Division. In the eyes of many Red officers and soldiers, such a meal seemed somewhat extravagant.

It's just that for many Red Army leaders, after seeing the food eaten by the soldiers, they didn't say much about the small stove opened for them by the independent division. After all, Yao Shengjun also said that some things are limited in quantity!

After finishing the dinner, Zhou Enlai called the political commissars of many legions and followed Yao Shengjun to the material warehouse guarded by heavy soldiers. Looking at the mountain of materials, everyone felt that their eyes couldn't see it.

Compared with Zhou Enlai, the political commissars in charge of logistics, pay more attention to things like food and clothes. Mr. Zhu strode to the place where the materials and ammunition were stacked, and looked at the row of mortars emitting a ghostly light with joy on his face.

Opening an ammunition box and picking up an unopened rifle from it, Mr. Zhu skillfully pulled the bolt and said, "Good gun!" ”

Listening to Mr. Zhu's praise, Yao Shengjun also smiled and said: "Commander-in-chief, this is the weapon and ammunition that the enemy originally airdropped to Zhou Hunyuan during the previous Battle of Shuicheng. It's just that there aren't many of them, we have some of them, and there are only a thousand brand new ones left.

In addition to these 1,000 new guns, we handed over 6,000 rifles to the headquarters this time. There are 86 mortars of various types, and there are not many light machine guns and heavy machine guns, only about 200 in total, and the ammunition is still relatively sufficient. ”

For the weapons and ammunition handed over, Yao Shengjun has an account in his heart. In fact, this batch of weapons and ammunition is also a reserve weapon of the independent division. However, considering that the independent division continues to fight, there will be no shortage of weapons captured.

Therefore, He Zhengdao only retained the weapons that could be expanded into a regiment, and the rest of the weapons and ammunition were all handed over to Yao Shengjun to the headquarters. As for other salt, medicines, and grains, they are all in sufficient quantities.

Mao Taizu, who also came over to receive supplies, also said with a smile on his face: "Boss, with this batch of weapons and ammunition, we can expand the troops of one division again." With these mortars, we are not afraid to fight a tough battle in the future. ”

'Yes! The mortars that Xiao He handed over to the column of the Military Commission last time were almost consumed after a battle. Now with these shell supplies, the artillery power of our main force can be increased a lot.

It's just that I heard that when you attacked Zhou Hunyuan's troops in Shuicheng, you also used a mountain artillery battalion. Why didn't you see the mountain artillery here this time? Isn't it, have you equipped all the mountain artillery with the troops? ’

Regarding the report on the operation of Shuicheng, Mr. Zhu naturally has also seen it. Compared with mortars, Mr. Zhu hopes to see that his troops can be equipped with big guys like mountain artillery.

Facing Mr. Zhu's inquiry, Yao Shengjun said with some embarrassment: "Commander-in-chief, after the battle is over, we will bury those artillery pieces on the spot." One is that the shells are gone, and the other is that they are inconvenient to carry. ”

'It's a pity! ’

Although Mr. Zhu, who heard this, was a little distressed, he also understood that it was indeed not easy to take so many mountain cannons on the road. In particular, the route of the march of the independent division is not an official road in many places.

It is already a commendable thing to be able to bring these materials here and hand them over to headquarters. Forcibly pulling those mountain guns on the road not only did not play any role, but also could delay the fighters.

When inspecting the materials, Zhou Enlai looked at the bacon and smoked meat piled up like firewood, and said in surprise: "These are also the materials you seized?" ”

Some of them were captured enemy money, but most of them were bought. Although I don't understand why the teacher asks us to buy these smoked meat and bacon everywhere we go, he said that this kind of meat can be preserved for a long time.

On top of that, when we are short of salt, these bacon can also be used as salt. According to what he meant, if there is such a piece of bacon, even if you stew a pot of wild vegetables, you can eat a few more pots of rice! ’

Yao Shengjun's explanation made Zhou Enlai think about it and said, "It's too! When you buy this kind of thing, you really buy meat and salt at the same time. Next, it seems that our main force can also live a good life for a while. ”

After counting the materials, Yao Shengjun took Zhou Enlai to a room where the materials were stored separately. A heavy box of gold, as well as dozens of boxes of ocean, were transferred to the hands of the general of the Red Army.

It's just that compared with these materials, Zhou Enlai prefers the eight radio stations of large and small power. With these radio stations, the Red Army can completely arrange the radio stations to the level of the main force of the regiment!

Thinking of this, Zhou Enlai quickly said: "Do you have a lot of radio stations in your independent division?" ”

Each of the four infantry regiments is equipped with two radios, one each for the recruit regiment and the logistics brigade, and one for the division headquarters and two for the low power. In addition, reconnaissance battalions, each company was equipped with a radio. ’

Listening to this narration, Zhou Enlai immediately said: "Why should the reconnaissance battalion be equipped with so many radio stations? ”

Because the reconnaissance battalion is the sharp knife unit of the independent division, before each unit fights, the reconnaissance battalion conducts reconnaissance in advance. The division commander meant that with the radio, the reconnaissance battalion could also be divided into several squads to report the situation to the division headquarters at any time. ’

For such a radio station, Zhou Enlai felt that it was too extravagant. But after thinking about it, he still felt that the equipment of the independent division was also necessary. After all, the speed at which radio stations transmit information is much faster than that of horses.

After asking the telecommunications office to put away the eight radio stations, Zhou Enlai also convened the political commissars of each army corps overnight and began to discuss the issue of changing clothes and distributing materials. And Mr. Zhu also convened a meeting between the corps commander and the division commander.

In addition to discussing the issue of the distribution of supplies and weapons, the more than 6,000 recruits brought by the independent division this time and more than 6,000 recruits who have undergone a period of political and ideological transformation will also be distributed to the main units.

In the face of the independent division, which is both giving supplies and soldiers, these corps commanders also have a good impression of He Zhengdao. After all, with these materials and soldiers, the strength of their legions can be improved a lot!

Compared with the soldiers they captured in the past, most of them were replenished to their own troops, for fear that other legions would rob them. It is indeed rare to be so generous as an independent division and give more than 6,000 reformed recruits at one time.

In this case, no one is embarrassed to say anything about independent divisions. For He Zhengdao's actions, listening to the praise and affirmation of many Red Army leaders, Mao Taizu also felt very gratified, and felt that He Zhengdao was still a little politically minded.

Eating people with short mouths and short hands with people, these people have all gained the benefits of independent divisions, so they naturally want to recite He Zhengdao's favor. Even if some people thought that He Zhengdao had too many troops in his hands before, it was not good to say such things anymore now.

It's just that in He Zhengdao's view, after the distribution of more than 6,000 soldiers to the main force, the combat effectiveness of the independent division has increased instead of decreasing. As long as the combat effectiveness of the four main regiments is guaranteed, the independent division is still the most powerful unit in the first army.

After a full meal and a good night's sleep, the main forces of the Red Army received brand new military uniforms and linen shoes from their superiors the next day. In addition to this, the regiments were also assigned mortars, light and heavy machine guns, and a batch of ammunition.

The distribution of these materials, as well as the replenishment of new recruits, made the countenance of the main force of the entire Red Army instantly greatly improved. Just the next day, Yao Shengjun proposed to Mao Taizu and others to set off first.

Facing Yao Shengjun, who was in a hurry to leave, Mao Taizu said curiously: "Comrade Shengjun, don't you march with the main force?" ”

"Commissar Mao, the division commander also needs my help. In the past, when the troops were fighting, the division commander was responsible for the war, and I was responsible for logistics and the education and management of recruits. In the Battle of Zhaojue, we took more than 3,000 prisoners.

If we don't hurry over, I'm afraid that we will delay the next battle of the main force of the division. Last night he received a telegram from the division commander that he planned to take Xichang and meet with the main force there! ’

In fact, Mao Taizu, who also received He Zhengdao's telegram yesterday, also knew that the independent division was preparing to attack Xichang, and it was more to clear the obstacles for the main army. It's just that for Mao Taizu, I always feel a little sorry for He Zhengdao.

After all, the independent division, which had just broken through, was supposed to have a good rest in the rear. As a result, the independent division has now taken on the important task of being the vanguard. At this point, Mao Taizu was indeed both relieved and ashamed.

Mao Taizu, who wrote a letter temporarily, asked Yao Shengjun to forward the letter to He Zhengdao, but still approved Yao Shengjun's order to leave with the backbone of the new corps. In this regard, the independent division seems to have disappeared from the army again.

Looking at the 'filial piety' that Yao Shengjun stacked on his desk before leaving, Mao Taizu left some and said: "Guards, give these cigarettes to other leaders, just say that they are condolences prepared for them by He Zhengdao, the commander of the independent division!" ”

'Yes! ’

For He Zhengdao, even cigarettes were considered for him, Mao Taizu also felt it. Maybe after the situation stabilizes, He Zhengdao should be promoted again. With this transfer of materials, I believe that there should be no more opposition to his promotion.

Although this is a trivial matter, from this trivial matter, Mao Taizu also feels that He Zhengdao can be believed. Among the main forces of the Red Army today, He Zhengdao can be regarded as his real confidant and favorite general!
