Chapter 52: Northward Expansion (4)
At this moment, something that worried Meng Qingshan came.
"Divisional commander, divisional commander, it's not good, it's not good." The person who came was Sun Yunlong, the platoon commander of the reconnaissance company under Li Youde, who was sent out by Meng Qingshan to investigate the situation.
"It's wrong, it should be called deputy commander, just now we have made contact with the headquarters of the Second Route Army, our team wants to rebuild the Fourth Army and the Tenth Army, and Comrade Meng Qingshan has been appointed deputy commander-in-chief." Li Yanping reminded with a smile.
"What? Division commander, division commander, this time we are in danger, and the political commissar, you go and see the company commander! Meng Qingshan and Li Yanping heard that there was an emergency, and hurriedly followed Sun Yunlong, and when they came to the place, they found that Li Youde was lying on the ground and was being bandaged by several female college students from medical schools who had been recruited in the county last time.
"Youde, what's wrong with you?"
"Division commander, political commissar, I found that the Japanese army was gathering troops on the road to the right of us, looking for ships everywhere to prepare to cross the river, looking at their direction as if they were coming from here, I led the second platoon and was accidentally discovered by the advance troops of the Japanese army to start a fierce battle, and as a result, I was like this, and I don't know if I am old and useless." Li Youde lowered his head and said.
"If you dare to say that you are old, then I am still four or five years older than you, how can I live? Don't think about it so much, just rest in peace! Leave the rest to the division commander! Li Yanping said comfortingly.
"It seems that what I was worried about has happened, but I didn't expect that we just crossed the river last night, and today we were discovered by the little devil, the little devil's information is really fast, faster than I expected."
"Yes, Teacher, to be honest, I didn't expect it either."
"Sun Yunlong, you immediately lead the team to continue to investigate the movements of the Japanese army, Xiaohuzi, you immediately call all the cadres above the battalion level to a meeting." Meng Qingshan ordered.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Meng Qingshan said.
"Now I'm going to tell you two things, one is happy and one is unhappy, you want to hear that" After speaking, he looked at everyone with a smile.
"Teacher, if there is any happy event, your family will tell me quickly! Don't lose our appetite! Zhang Zhongxi, who already admired Meng Qingshan a little, didn't know that his division commander had been promoted.
"Alright! The first news is that you have all been promoted, and the headquarters has asked us to rebuild the Fourth Army and the Tenth Army as an independent division, and now I announce the appointment:
Commander of the Fourth Army: Zhang Zhongxi, Political Commissar Wang Weiyu, Director of the Political Department: Tang Yongming.
Commander of the Tenth Army: Wang Wennian, Political Commissar Wang Guangyu, Director of the Political Department: Cheng Wenjun.
Each division has three regiments.
Artillery company commander Han Hao, three platoons of artillery.
Guard battalion commander Shen Qingshan, instructor Leng Youfeng, deputy battalion commander Xu Hu, three guard companies, and one machine gun company.
Reconnaissance company commander Li Youde
Li Hong, the commander of the female soldier company, three female platoons.
Sun Feng, the commander of the baggage battalion, Sun Baozhu, the instructor, and three transport teams.
Of course, this is all false name for the time being, but it is also a good thing worth mentioning, we are no longer alone.
"Another thing is that we are going to play a game of hide and seek with the little devils from today, because the commander of the reconnaissance company has just reported that the little devils have gathered some advance teams and are ready to cross the river to pursue us, so we are going to throw away all useless things now, and each person will carry three days' worth of dry food, and all the things on our bodies except food and bullets and guns will be thrown away."
"If the deputy commander has left everything, then our baggage battalion can also fight." Sun Feng said happily.
"Division commander, uh, no, no, deputy commander, the method you said is really good, after a few hours of complaining, there have been 300 people to join the Anti-Japanese Federation, I think, if it is after half a day, that group of puppet troops will not join us anyway."
"Yes, so that we will not have to worry about conscription, draw a squad from each regiment to form a new battalion, with Leng Youfeng as the battalion commander, He Ti as the instructor, and the lack of personnel in each battalion will be supplemented by prisoners. All prisoners and recruits who have just been resigned have to train in the new barracks for at least two months before they can replenish the various units. ”
"Division commander, deputy commander, you can't do this, I still have to lead troops to fight, I don't want to be a battalion commander who trains small soldiers, let me be an instructor!" Leng Youfeng said with a bitter face.
"Comrade Youfeng organizationally appointed you as the commander of the recruit battalion, that is to believe in your ability, training recruits can also achieve combat merits, training recruits to send fresh blood to the main force, this is a very important thing, the deputy commander handed over such an important task to you, you are reluctant, you must know that as a party member, you must resolutely complete the tasks assigned to you by the party, how can you have such a heart, you have to use your 100% confidence to complete the tasks assigned to you by the party."
The corners of Meng Qingshan's mouth twitched, and he saw that Li Yanping's broken mouth had made another mistake, and quickly got up and stayed away from Li Yanping's attack range, looking at Leng Youfeng who was about to be frothing at the mouth of Li Yanping's training, and silently mourned Leng Youfeng in his heart, and he didn't know if he could stand it.
"Political commissar, stop talking, I will be, I will be, I will resolutely complete the glorious task entrusted to me by the party." Leng Youfeng looked at Li Yanping with admiration and said.
Looking at Leng Youfeng and looking at Li Yanping's eyes, it was like the monkey in Journey to the West seeing Tang Seng's appearance, it is enough to have a Tang Seng, do you want to add a little monk, I tremble when I think about it. Li Yanping nodded with satisfaction after hearing Leng Youfeng's answer, and turned his gaze to Zhang Zhongxi next to him.
"Huh! I immediately went back to the army and told them about the promotion. "Get up and run.
"Huh! Not good, I have a stomachache. ”
"My head hurts."
"My arm hurts."
"I'm hungry."
A group of people who were in a meeting dispersed in a hurry, and only Li Yanping and Meng Qingshan were left in the whole place, and the damn excuse of "me and me" was all said by them, what should I say? Just as Meng Qingshan was thinking about what kind of excuse to find to stay away from Li Yanping, who was broken-mouthed, he saw Chief of Staff Wang Yachen hurriedly returning.
"Chief of Staff, what's wrong? In such a hurry? Meng Qingshan saw Wang Yachen frowning and asked.
"Just now, Sun Yunlong, the commander of a platoon of the reconnaissance company, sent someone to report that a small squad of the Japanese army and a battalion of the puppet army are rushing towards us, and they are still about 15 miles away from us." "Is this little devil's speed taking viagra, so fast, does the enemy have follow-up troops?"
"The reconnaissance company reported none."
"Okay, since there is no follow-up troops, and the enemy is coming to die, let's accept this gift first, how about we set off?" Meng Qingshan was not so nervous. "That's all it can be." Wang Yachen shook his head and said. "The commissar and I will lead a regiment and a guard battalion to ambush the enemy in a while, you hurry up and let the troops throw away everything useless, reduce weight, and when we come back, we will move immediately."
"I know, I'll arrange this, you can rest assured to go to war!" Li Yanping patted Meng Qingshan's shoulder with a smile and said. Watching Meng Qingshan and Wang Yachen walk away, Li Yanping said to himself: "What did I want to say just now, how could I forget it as soon as Lao Wang interrupted it!" ”
