Volume 3 Step by Step Chapter 364 Giving the Flag
"Bring the flag of our regiment"
Han Tiecheng roared, then bent down to take a red flag from the deputy head of the regiment Mo Mingqi, held his head high, waved the big flag in his hand, and a black tiger head was revealed.
The battle flag hunts, making a "pop" sound.
Suddenly, Han Tiecheng snorted, covering his stomach with one hand, and holding the flagpole with the other, blood seeped out of his abdomen, which made Mo Mingqi, the deputy head of the regiment, Zheng Qin, the staff officer of the regiment, and others worry for a while.
Han Tiecheng's performance is directly related to the morale of a group and whether it can improve the cohesion of recruits, no one dares to disturb.
Zhou Juncheng sneered in the distance: "Old Han, you better hurry up and take medicine, look, your wounds are all cracked, I'm worried that if you shake around a few more times, your little life will be gone."
"Go, go, you guy doesn't have half a leg, you climb so high, be careful to fall down and break your other leg"
Han Tiecheng sneered at each other and refused to give an inch.
The two regimental commanders who had not recovered from their injuries were so-for-tat, and the soldiers below not only did not feel bored, but tears flowed out of their eyes - with such a heroic regiment commander, are they afraid that they will not be able to win the battle in the future?
Han Tiecheng turned his head, gave Mo Mingqi a reassuring look, raised the flag, and said to his officers and soldiers: "Have you seen it, this is the military flag of our regiment, our banner is the tiger, we are the tiger regiment." When facing the enemy, we must tear them mercilessly apart like a tiger descending from a mountain, so that all the enemies tremble in front of us and think of when our Tiger Regiment fought in the city of Shanghai......"
"Don't mention those old yellow calendars, it's really more than merit, no one is much worse than others"
Zhou Juncheng sneered, and then he also leaned down and took a flagpole from Chi Yuming, the deputy commander of the third regiment, and Major Zhuo Han, a staff officer of the regiment, climbed up the haystack and pulled up the flag horn cooperatively, and a wolf's head appeared in front of him.
Zhou Juncheng brewed his emotions for a while, and said to the officers and soldiers under his command with full confidence: "Soldiers of the Third Regiment, we are the Wild Wolf Regiment. Wolves walk thousands of miles to eat meat, dogs travel thousands of miles to eat, our wild wolf group eats the meat of Japanese devils, gnaws the bones of Japanese devils, and drinks the blood of Japanese devils. I'm afraid that there will be no devils to send him to death."
Zhou Juncheng's sonorous and powerful words made people's blood boil when they heard it, and they immediately compared Han Tiecheng's nagging words.
Han Tiecheng's face was pale, it was because of the severe pain in the wound before, but now he was angry by Zhou Juncheng. He waved his flag violently and said loudly:
"Everyone remembers, we are a regiment, the first main force of the new 2nd Division, and the enemy will die when he touches us...... When other troops encounter us, they can only obediently give way. Our Tigers are invincible and invincible, and the jealousy of others will only make us more proud."
Mo Mingqi hurriedly asked his veterans to take the lead in shouting and cheering for Han Tiecheng, and the newly recruited officers and soldiers followed crazy, raising their arms and shouting.
The faces of the officers and soldiers of the third regiment next to him were very ugly, and Zhou Juncheng burst into a foul language at Han Tiecheng: "Let go of your mother's fart" Then he turned his head suddenly, looked at his team, and asked loudly: "Who is the first main force of the new second division?" ”
"Three Wild Wolf Regiments"
"Three Wild Wolf Regiments"
The new and old officers and men of the three regiments screamed, and the sound waves soared into the sky, and the momentum was amazing.
Seeing that the momentum was suppressed by the three regiments at once, Han Tiecheng turned around and shouted to the officers and soldiers of the first regiment: "The Tiger Regiment is the first"
Next, a uniform voice was heard in a column:
"The First of the Tigers"
"The First of the Tigers"
Wu Ming, who was watching the excitement in the back, shook his head angrily.
Han Tiecheng and Zhou Juncheng are as naïve as children playing with each other, but the simpler and more naïve the means, the easier it is to inspire people, as evidenced by the high morale of the officers and men of the first and third regiments.
Wu Ming glanced at Sun Chengyuan, who was looking at it with relish, and asked, "Why did those two bastards make a military flag for themselves?" also made a 'Tiger Regiment,,A wolf regiment,The title,Why don't I know the way? ”
Sun Chengyuan said with a smile: "In the past few days, you have been walking everywhere, going down to the grassroots level to eat and live with the officers and soldiers, and the two regiment commanders on the one hand do not want to disturb you, and on the other hand, they probably do not dare to mention it to you in person. The two guys found Deputy Division Commander Long, and Deputy Division Commander Long meant that as long as they didn't violate discipline, they would be up to them to get the honorary title."
Wu Ming couldn't help but laugh, and said in his heart that these two guys were playing first and then playing
Seeing that the morale of the officers and men of the two regiments on the threshing floor was high, and if they continued to agitate, the two gangs would probably have to fight for the honor of the first main force of the new Second Division.
Wu Ming leaned into Sun Chengyuan's ear and commanded softly: "I won't step forward...... You convey my order to Han Tiecheng and Zhou Juncheng, the two bastards, and ask them to go and bandage the open wound immediately. If they dare to play so excessively again, I will send them to the rear hospital to recuperate from their injuries. ”
Chengyuan was amused.
For Han Tiecheng and Zhou Juncheng, the two tiger generals, what they are most afraid of is nothing else, which is to deprive them of the right to lead troops to fight. With Wu Ming's order, he will definitely obey obediently.
Cheng Yuan was about to go to convey the order, Wu Ming said again: "You let those two guys burn the flag for Lao Tzu, one made the domineering tiger into a kitten, and the other made the fierce wolf into a soil dog, and the cloth of the flag is also very inferior, and there is no demeanor of our new second division at all." It's a fucking shame, I can't even look at it, but they roar so hard."
"Master, you don't support their approach?" Sun Chengyuan hesitated a little.
Wu Ming puffed up his eyes and said hatefully: "Who said I don't support it? When you go back, you will inform Zhou Xiangling, director of the Quartermaster Department, and ask them to make a few flags, and we will have a grand flag awarding ceremony."
"Okay"
Sun Chengyuan listened to the music and agreed to come down.
On November 21, the north wind was howling and the clouds were heavy.
The officers and men of the 1st and 2nd Brigades of the Xinfeng Battalion of the New Second Division stood silently on the spacious school field that could accommodate 10,000 people.
Accompanied by Long Shaogang, Dai Ziran and others, Wu Ming walked up to the review stand, and the queue below became quieter, and the eyes of the officers and soldiers followed Wu Ming's figure to the center of the high platform.
Wu Ming's gaze swept over the faces of the soldiers, then he cleared his throat and said into the microphone in front of him: "Today is a glorious and great day, and our new Second Division will hold a flag awarding ceremony here......
Although he had been notified a long time ago, as soon as Wu Ming's words came out, he still caused the audience to cheer.
Wu Ming pressed his right hand lightly, and the queue below became quiet again.
Wu Ming first reviewed the achievements of the new Second Division, and then summed up: "Since its establishment, our division has made countless achievements, especially since joining the Songhu battlefield, it has won great victories against Japan one after another, especially the capture of the Japanese army flag and the annihilation of the 114th Division and the 6th Brigade of the Field Heavy Artillery."
The school yard resounded with deafening applause, which lasted for a long time.
When the applause gradually stopped, Wu Ming continued: "All the achievements are all the soldiers with blood and life in exchange, so far in the expedition to Songhu, our division has lost 3,791 people, 4,920 people who were seriously injured and could not return to the team, and countless people who were slightly injured. ”
"Behind the brilliant achievements of the new Second Division, there are you, me, and everyone's credit, but the greatest credit is still those brothers who died in battle. Now, I ask you to join me in a moment of silence for the fallen soldiers
As soon as Wu Ming's voice fell, in the loudspeakers around the school grounds, the desolate music sounded, and the solemn atmosphere infected everyone.
Although most of the recruits didn't know what the silent mourning was, they still followed Wu Ming's practice, lowered their heads, closed their eyes, and listened to the mournful music silently.
Three minutes later, the song "Camel Bell" ended, Wu Ming opened his eyes and saw that the soldiers were standing more straight, with perseverance and sharpness in their steadyness, and finally initially possessed the spirit of an elite army.
Wu Ming coughed, arousing everyone's attention, standing more straight, looking ahead: "The names of all the sacrificed soldiers will be engraved on the monument of the Phoenix Mountain Martyrs Cemetery for future generations to admire, and their exploits will last forever...... Next, it's time for an important ritual, do you know what the Tao is? ”
"Flag Presentation"
Han Tiecheng took the lead in answering below, and then the uniform voice spread throughout the four fields.
"That's right"
Wu Ming nodded and shouted: "The flag awarding ceremony starts now"
A burst of majestic music of "Serving the Country with Loyalty" sounded, and under the watchful eyes of everyone, bright red flags were carried onto the rostrum by four officers and soldiers of the guard battalion.
The four officers and men walked firmly, forcefully, neatly and unanimously, and showed the vigorous and heroic posture of the soldiers in their gestures.
Wu Ming looked at the audience, and the most stunned fell on Han Tiecheng, and shouted: "Han Tiecheng"
"To"
Han Tiecheng, who was standing in front of a group of columns, replied loudly with his head held high, trotted all the way, walked up to the high platform in his most standard posture, and came to stand in front of Wu Ming.
"Take a break"
Wu Ming nodded, and shouted loudly: "Fan Daoquan"
"Yes"
Fan Daoquan walked quickly to the high platform and stood side by side with Han Tiecheng.
Subsequently, Wu Ming called the names of Zhou Juncheng and Wu Guohua.
The four brave regiment commanders straightened up and stood neatly in front of Wu Ming, like four peerless swords, revealing a completely different military temperament.
Wu Ming secretly praised in his heart, but his face was serious, and he turned his head to the microphone and said, "Now on behalf of the division headquarters, I will award the banner of the Tiger Regiment of the Han Tiecheng Regiment
The rousing music paused for a moment, and then a dense drum beat sounded, stirring everyone's heart.
Wu Ming took the tiger flag from the hands of one of the officers and soldiers of the guard battalion, and waved it solemnly, and with the red flag unfurled, a majestic tiger head appeared in everyone's sight, it was not angry and self-threatening, its eyes were full of murderous aura, and it seemed to choose people to devour.
"Receiving the flag"
Wu Ming said loudly, and then solemnly handed over the tiger flag marked with the first regiment of the new second division of the National Revolutionary Army to Han Tiecheng.
Han Tiecheng saluted, took the flag, waved it happily a few times, and then folded the flag and resumed his upright posture again.
Next, Wu Ming awarded the Dragon Flag to Fan Dao's regiment, the Wolf Flag to Zhou Juncheng's regiment, and the Leopard Flag to Wu Guohua's regiment.
The four regiment commanders looked at the flag in their hands happily, touched the lines on it, and their faces were full of bright smiles
At this time, Lei Peng, who was on guard duty, jumped on the high platform like a cat, saluted Wu Ming and reported: "Division, the scouts have sent news that the Japanese plane has flown over Guangchen Town and is flying in the direction of our camp. ”
Following Lei Peng's hand, Wu Ming saw five black dots flying from the eastern sky, and the roar of the aircraft engine became louder and louder.
The officers and men on the school field couldn't help but turn their heads to look at it, and their faces quickly became ugly, after all, most of the soldiers present were newly replenished soldiers, and there was no immobility of the original officers and soldiers.
"What a panic, the ceremony continues"
Wu Ming's face sank like water and scolded loudly. Although the officers and men on the school ground were a little flustered, they finally stabilized when they saw the division commander and deputy division commander with them, completely ignoring the approaching fighters.
The Japanese fighters obviously wanted to add to the chaos, but Wu Ming had already arranged for Gui Tao to take three companies of anti-aircraft artillery battalions (mainly equipped with 40-mm Bofors anti-aircraft guns) and anti-aircraft artillery companies of each artillery battalion (mainly equipped with millimeter Erley anti-aircraft guns) to guard everywhere, and he was not worried about accidents at all.
Soon, the sound of dense anti-aircraft artillery fire rang out, as the smoke clouds exploded, the afterimage of tracer bullets was everywhere, the Japanese fighters rushed left and right in the air, one of them just lowered the altitude into the bomb delivery track, was hit by a volley explosion, the rest of the fighters quickly pulled up the altitude, and the most depressed dropped bombs in the air, but the explosion point was a full kilometer away from the barracks, and the quasi-head really did not dare to compliment.
Seeing that they could not take advantage, the four planes circled in the air depressedly, and fled towards the sea after the last day, and there were deafening cheers from the Xinfeng camp below.
