The 341st and 342nd regiments soon went with the Eighth Route Army to southern Hebei and Shanxi, Hebei and Henan. The warriors were happy, as if they were not going to war, but to a feast. The two regiment leaders, Wu Quanfu and Qi Sixian, also closed their mouths happily, and waved vigorously to the comrades-in-arms and villagers who were sending off.

This was the first time they fought independently, and Zheng Weiguo was really a little worried. But the calf always has to go down to the field to learn to plow the land, how can he grow into a hundred battles without experiencing a little wind and rain?

Chief of Staff Zhou comforted: "Master, don't worry about them!" This trip to southern Hebei and Jinjiyu is just to sweep away the puppet army, and it is not a big enemy, so nothing will happen! ”

Zheng Weiguo nodded and said, "Well, I know the way!" Of course, he knew that the risk of the Dao was not great, otherwise he would not have sent them out to go through the trial, but he always felt a little reluctant in his heart. After all, these troops cost him a lot of effort, just like his own children.

Chief of Staff Zhou suddenly whispered: "Division, I just received the news that Mr. Yue Jun, the special envoy of the commission, will be here tomorrow!" ”

Zheng Weiguo said: "Who is Mr. Yue Jun?" ”

Chief of Staff Zhou said: "It's Zhang Qun, the current vice president of the Executive Yuan!" ”

Zheng Weiguo was taken aback and said, "Damn, it's such a big deal!" Just for our 33rd Division, isn't it? ”

Chief of Staff Zhou smiled: "It shouldn't be just for us, it's just the right time!" ”

Zheng Weiguo nodded and said, "I guess too!" ”

Chief of Staff Zhou said: "Master, have you seen this big man in the political science department before?" ”

Zheng Weiguo shook his head and said, "I've heard of his name for a long time. We have never met. It is said that he is the henchman of the chairman of the committee, and he specializes in matchmaking for the old man! ”

Chief of Staff Zhou smiled and said: "Speaking of which, this Mr. Yue Jun has a lot of connections with the Northeast Army, and he went to the Northeast to negotiate with Zhang Shaomarshal to promote the change of banner in the Northeast, and later persuaded Zhang Shaoshuai to help the chairman in the Central Plains War, and made a lot of contributions!" ”

Zheng Weiguo smiled: "Well, when he went to the Northeast, I was still hunting and farming at home!" As he spoke, he suddenly felt a pang of heartache. After crossing the retreat, the body's sense of self has gradually collapsed. But just mention the Northeast. He will use this way to remind Zheng Weiguo not to forget the national shame and family feud.

Chief of Staff Zhou said, "Then what are you going to do?" ”

Zheng Weiguo said: "I think about it, it's not good to hide, escape, avoid, and let go, and it makes people suspicious for no reason!" I don't dare to pretend to be a gentleman. But self-piercing. Since putting on this military uniform, I have never done anything ashamed of the country and the nation. Case. Why don't you meet this envoy in a dignified manner? ”

Chief of Staff Zhou applauded and said, "Master, you are right!" In my opinion. We must not only be upright, but also make a big show of it, so that Wuhan can also have a good look at the demeanor of our tiger and sheep fighting division! ”

Zheng Weiguo laughed when he heard Ha Lu Ha Da Lu and said, "Okay, the specific matters will be arranged by you!" Let's get to know this world-famous Mr. Yue Jun! ”

On the morning of this day, Zheng Weiguo walked out of the small courtyard dressed in a cloak. The officers waiting outside were stunned for a moment, and then began to make a fool of themselves, and the courtyard and the courtyard suddenly became lively.

"Wow, Master, you're really in good spirits!"

"It's not like it's a drop, it's almost time to catch up with Second Brother Guan!"

"Live like a new uncle, ha, ha!"

……

In order to show his respect for the special envoy of the chairman, he wore a rare yellow military dress and two medals on his chest. One is the Baoding Medal, and the other is the Yunlu Medal, the workmanship is quite exquisite, and it looks even more heroic when worn on the chest. Everyone looks fresh. It's not much fun these days, and just a little thing is enough for them to be happy for a while.

Before, Zheng Weiguo rarely even wore the general's regular uniform, let alone a formal dress. Not only did he not wear it himself, but other officers were also forbidden to wear such clothes, so as not to be shot by devils on the battlefield. But not today, you have to wear it, because this is the minimum etiquette of the army.

In order to show the majestic side of the 33rd Division, it left a deep impression on the envoy. The other officers were also carefully dressed, and their uniforms were carefully ironed. The leggings were also removed from the legs and replaced with shiny military boots. With an armed belt tied around his waist, he became more and more broad-shouldered and thin-waisted, and his inverted triangular body was full of strength. A platoon of officers stood neatly aside, and the murderous atmosphere of the barracks immediately spread.

Zheng Weiguo looked at it and said with a smile: "You guys are not bad!" Maintain this mental outlook, and don't lose face with our 33rd Division later! ”

"Yes, Master!" The wolf cubs roared in unison, and then laughed happily.

Chief of Staff Zhou saw that they were too presumptuous, and was about to be reprimanded, but was persuaded by Zheng Weiguo.

Zheng Weiguo said: "Young people, there should be such vitality!" ”

Chief of Staff Zhou smiled bitterly: "It's a good thing to be vibrant, but I'm afraid that they don't know the height of the sky and cause chaos!" He looked at his watch and said, "Master, Mr. Yue Jun and Chief of Staff Guo should be almost there, let's go and greet them."

Zheng Weiguo nodded and said, "Okay!" Get the guard of honor and the marching band ready. We went to Wutongping to greet this Mr. Yue Jun. ”

The group rode horses and quickly arrived at Wutongping, but Chief of Staff Guo and the others had not yet arrived. Zhang Haiyan was a little worried, and said: "There are still several bandits along the way, there won't be any accidents, right?" ”

Chief of Staff Zhou said: "No, there are cavalry battalions escorting them along the way, what strength can threaten them in this area?" ”

As he spoke, a group of cavalry came running from the front, it was the vanguard company of the cavalry battalion. Although the road conditions are average, the riders still rush to the road with their excellent riding skills.

The commander of the pioneer company jumped off his horse lightly and saluted: "Report!" Division, Staff, Pioneer Company was ordered to escort the commission's envoy, the task has been completed, please instruct! ”

Zheng Weiguo couldn't help but ask, "What about people?" ”

There were a few loud laughs from the rear of the cavalry, and Chief of Staff Guo and a handsome middle-aged man jumped off their horses. The middle-aged man may not have ridden a horse for a long time, and his dismounting movements are a little rusty. However, judging by his strength, he is an insider, and he must have ridden horses when he was young.

Chief of Staff Guo smiled: "Weiguo, we are here!" Come, let me introduce you to it. This is Mr. Yue Jun, the special envoy of the commission! Now I am ordered to inspect the battlefield behind enemy lines in North China, and you have to entertain you! ”

Zheng Weiguo smiled: "That's certain!" Mr. Yue Jun, I sat down, I worked hard all the way! ”

Zhang Qun glanced at Zheng Weiguo and said with a smile: "This is Master Zheng!" What a talent, worthy of being a famous anti-Japanese general, the party-state cadre! ”

Zheng Weiguo hurriedly said: "Mr. Yue Jun has won the award!" Our 33rd Division was able to achieve meager combat exploits, relying on the leadership of the commander of the theater guard and the officers and men with their lives. How dare you be a famous anti-Japanese general to defend the country? To say that the party-state is a dry city. Mr. Yue Jun is the one who should be! ”

Zhang Qun smiled and said, "Okay, defend the country, let's not praise each other!" I hit it off with you at first sight. How about being brothers in the future? ”

Zheng Weiguo saw that he was straightforward. I have a good feeling in my heart. Busy said: "Dare not obey your fate!" Brother Yue Jun, take a seat, please! ”

The two hurriedly said, "Please." Please! ”

The group remounted and soon returned to the 33rd Division. For the sake of secrecy, this place has been cleared. Nearby are all troops directly under the 33rd Division on alert.

"The envoy has arrived! Stand and play! ”

The command flag danced up and down, both rhythmic and full of power. Under its guidance, the tune of Kaiser Wilhelm's military training song began to flutter in Ping'an County.

Why did you choose this song? Because China liked this at that time. From Zhang Zhidong's "Dashuai Training Song" when he was training the new army, Yuan Shikai's "Beiyang Army Military Song" when he was training at a small station, "Fengjun Military Song" when Zhang Dashuai was training in Fengtian, to "Military Song of the National Revolutionary Army" when Captain Chang was training in Huangpu, and then to Taizu's "Three Disciplines and Eight Attentions" in Jinggangshan, they all used the same tune.

The purpose of playing this piece was the military band of the 33rd Division. From the beginning of a few storytelling, the 33rd Division now also has its own art troupe, and a military band is naturally not a problem. Although the warriors are all two-knives and often out of tune, this passion is not seen elsewhere.

Zhang Qun probably didn't expect to see such a military band in this ravine, and was very surprised, and said, "Brother Zheng is really a good method!" The 33rd Division has a strict appearance and high morale, which is really rare in China! ”

Zheng Weiguo smiled and said: "This is nothing, the army and people behind the enemy line are dedicated to serving the country, and it should be so!" Mr. Yue Jun, please take a seat, please come on stage! ”

The two hurriedly conceded: "Please! ”

"Stand upright! Salute! ”

When passing by the guard of honor, only a sound was heard, and the military salute of the members of the guard of honor was uniform, clean and powerful. These team members are also carefully selected, all of them are more than 1.80 meters tall and weigh about 85 kilograms.

The executive captain of the honor guard trotted all the way to Zheng Weiguo and the others, and said loudly: "Report to Mr. Special Envoy!" The honor guard is ready, please review! ”

Zhang Qun waved his hand and said, "Let's start!" ”

Boom, boom, boom, the compact and powerful gun drill performance officially began. Every action is full of murderous energy, and every look is extremely sharp.

Zhang Qun served as a soldier in his early years and stayed to study, but later became a long-term politician, and most of his masculinity was consumed. Seeing such a mighty and majestic division now, the male hormones were re-stimulated, and I felt a burst of blood boiling, and my face was flushed with excitement.

After the review, an officer stood in front of the rostrum and said loudly: "Everyone stand up, play music, and sing the military song of the 33rd Division!" The warriors stood up with a thud, and then shouted in unison:

Forward! Forward! Forward!

Our procession to the sun,

Stepping on the land of the motherland,

Burdened with the hope of the nation,

We are an invincible force.

We are the sons and daughters of China,

We are the armed men of the nation,

From fearless,

Never give in,

Heroic battles,

Until the enemy is destroyed,

……

If history had not changed, this song would have become the military song of the People's Liberation Army in the future. But now it was made out in advance by Zheng Weiguo.

I didn't want to plagiarize, but there are no songs suitable for the 33rd Division in this era. Like "March of the Great Sword", except for the cavalry, the 33rd Division basically does not use this play. "Whampoa Military Academy School Song" is also good, but they can't find a single one in the first six issues of Whampoa in the team, so they can't stick it up, right?

As for the other songs of the national army, they are all light and soft, and there is no masculinity at all. Historically, like the 74th Army and the New First Army, they were forced to have no choice but to rewrite their own songs.

Interestingly, Commander Sun of the New 38th Division also chose this red song at the beginning, and sang it for a long time in the expeditionary force.

Division Commander Sun later rearranged a military song by himself, and it became the new military song of the new First Army after the expansion. It is the one that starts with "You don't see", which was widely circulated back then. However, this song is still too elegant, and it is estimated that I can't understand it without a little cultural background.

Well, gossip and get down to business. Thousands of people inside and outside the stadium sang together, and the momentum was really extraordinary. After Zhang Qun heard this, his face changed several times, but he didn't know what to think.

Zheng Weiguo saw that he was a little distracted, and said, "Brother Yue Jun, how do you see the soldiers singing?" ”

Zhang Qun woke up suddenly, and hurriedly applauded: "Sing well, sing well!" To be honest, except during the Northern Expedition, I have never heard such an imposing song again! (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
