Chapter 66 Awards
The spring breeze in February is like scissors, repairing the streets and alleys of the capital with invisible hands. Just after the lively old calendar year, the ceremony of awarding special forces was held in the hall of the General Headquarters of the Wehrmacht. After the battle of the north, the special forces returned to the special forces base in the capital in mid-January to recuperate. In this northward campaign, the special forces have brilliantly completed their combat missions. In the battle, 65 people were killed and 32 wounded, and the greatest results were achieved at a relatively small cost.
In this regard, the headquarters decided to award the Imperial Meritorious Service Medal to the meritorious personnel of the special forces in the northward march. Officers and men of the special forces who have made meritorious contributions gathered in the hall of the headquarters to receive medals. At this moment, the troop commander Jie Zhenguo, the captain Hao Bisheng, Ma Kai, Li Tie and others lined up and waited. Everyone had expectant looks on their faces, and they stood with their chests held up excitedly. Soon, the door on one side opened, "The president has arrived!" The officer on duty shouted loudly, and everyone stood up and saluted.
Shaoqing, President Deng Zixuan, Commander-in-Chief of the National Defense Forces Chen Jintang, Chief of the General Staff Pei Gejin, Commander of the Central Route Cluster Leng Yifei, Commander of the Eastern Front Army Bai Sheng, and Logistics Minister Wang Xiaoer rushed in. Everyone stood still, "Please give the President a lecture!" Chen Jintang shouted loudly. Deng Zixuan smiled and said, "My warriors, welcome you to return triumphantly. In this northward campaign, your special forces fought beautifully and assisted the attack corps to complete the campaign mission brilliantly, and I thank you on behalf of the headquarters of the National Defense Forces! "Serve the Motherland!" All the officers replied loudly.
"Please award the President a Medal of Merit!" Chen Jintang shouted loudly again. An officer holds a tray with a glittering gold medal in his hand. Deng Zixuan smiled and wore medals for each of the decorated officers, and shook hands cordially to congratulate them. The officers who were trained were excited. This in turn causes stiffness in movement. Deng Zixuan had a few words of conversation with each of the decorated officers, encouraging them to bravely kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds.
After the ceremony, Chen Jintang said: "Now I will preach the appointment. Jie Zhenguo was appointed commander of the special forces and promoted to the rank of lieutenant general. Hao Bisheng, the captain of the group, was appointed as the chief instructor of the special forces base and promoted to the rank of major general. Ma Kai was appointed as the captain of the special forces group and promoted to the rank of lieutenant colonel, and Li Tie was appointed as the deputy captain of the special forces and promoted to the rank of lieutenant colonel. Appoint??????. Zuihou Chen Jintang announced that the special forces base should be normalized. It is necessary to train special soldiers uninterruptedly to supplement the loss in wartime.
The special forces are officially organized into 20 detachments, each of which remains 20 personnel. Special forces are under the command of the headquarters in peacetime. In wartime, it was under the command of the campaign headquarters where it was located. In the middle of last year, another 200 people were selected at the base, mainly to supplement the battle damage. The campaign of the Northern Advance fully demonstrated the special role of special forces, hence the standardization of special forces. Normalization. To become one of the main tasks of the headquarters of the Wehrmacht.
Zuihou Deng Zixuan concluded: "At present, our opponents have not yet recognized the importance of special forces, and we are ahead in the military field. The special mode of operation of special forces, the intensity of high-efficiency strikes, will change the course of the war. At present, our enemies have not yet woken up, but the enemy will become smart after repeated losses, and we cannot underestimate our opponents. In the future, the enemy will definitely strengthen its precautions, and the special operation will become more and more difficult. You must constantly sum up new tactics. Repeatedly accumulate practical experience??????。 ”
A few days later, Ma Kai and Li Tie led the team south to Quanzhou. As for what military secrets are to be done, they have not been explained to all officers and men. An arms train stopped at the Tianjin platform, and after the train stopped, the special soldiers stepped out of the carriage one after another. Martial law was temporarily imposed on the platform, and many passengers, small traders and hawkers were temporarily cleared out, and they crowded outside the iron fence at the entrance and exit of the station, looking curiously at this strange force, and the noisy words of discussion and the shouts of the gendarmes were intertwined, and there seemed to be a sense of mystery.
Ma Kai and Li Tie stepped out of the carriage one after the other, and Li Tie instructed one of his subordinates: "Order to assemble!" The whistle sounded, and the soldiers lined up. An officer ran to the front and said, "Report to the captain, deputy captain, all the queues are complete!" Please advise! Ma Kai walked to the front of the queue and said, "All pay attention, xiangyou turn!" Walk in two columns!. The soldiers left the station and got into the carriages waiting in the station square, and their destination was Tanggu Wharf.
In the carriage, Li Tie took out a box of Shanghai-made cigarettes, took out one and handed it to Ma Kai, who shook his head and said that he didn't want to smoke. Li Tie lit a cigarette and took a deep breath, closed his eyes and savored it: "Brother, you and I have been promoted, and the cigarettes rationed by the Quartermaster Department are also advanced, so it's good to be an official!" Ma Kai smiled, I don't know if it's okay. What do you think we're going south for? Do you really want to cross the sea to fight? Ma Kai said: "I guess I'm going to fight Taiwan!" "Foreign warships blockade the Taiwan Strait, how can we cross the sea to fight?"
Ma Kai pondered for a moment and said: "I estimate that the navy is going into battle, and the first step is to seize sea supremacy." I heard that two more battleships have been launched, so you can't let the battleships be used as decorations! "What you said makes sense, Damn, Lao Tzu can fight against Little Japan again, this time I must kill him heartily." "Don't be too optimistic, you fought in the Korean Peninsula and Little Japan, because you should know that their bushido spirit is evil, and it is different from Lao Maozi."
Li Tiedao: "Although Little Japan is tenacious, its tactics are rigid and rigid, and it does not know how to be flexible. Especially in operations, once it loses command, its combat effectiveness will decline rapidly, and this is the shortcoming of little Japan. Ma Kai said: "In the next step, we must have targeted training, know ourselves and know that the opponent will not be defeated in a hundred battles, and only by understanding the opponent can we win the battle." You have experience in fighting the Japanese army, and the targeted training of the Japanese army will be handed over to you. Li Tie nodded, his face grim.
A few hours later, the carriage arrived at the Tanggu pier. From a distance, a large number of soldiers gathered on the pier were lining up to board the ship. The berths at the wharf were full of cargo ships, many of which were already full of soldiers. "What part of this force is, what are they going south for?" Li Tie was confused. "What did we talk about just now, why did you forget?" Ma Kai scoffed. "Ao, it's really for Taiwan, look at my memory," Li Tie patted his head.
When the carriage arrived at the dock, the soldiers jumped out of the carriage and observed the friendly troops curiously. A liaison officer came over and reported, "Report to the chief, I'm the dock liaison officer, may I ask you are Unit Zero?" "Yes!" Ma Kai replied. "Sir! I have been ordered to coordinate your aboard, please come with me! "I came to the bottom of a cargo ship in the middle, and there was a group of generals standing on the deck of the cargo ship. Ma Kai said sharply: "Li Tie, look, is that kid Shao Bo?" "It's him! You can't go wrong, Shao Bo, Shao Bo! Li Tie shouted excitedly. Shao Bo stood in a prominent position in a school uniform, and when he heard someone shouting, he immediately recognized Li Tie and began to wave his arms.
Ma Kai and Li Tie climbed up the ramp ladder to the gangplank, Shao Bo also ran over, and the three of them hugged each other happily. Ma Kai asked excitedly: "Your troops are also going south?" "Your special forces are also going south?" Shao Bo asked rhetorically. "Alright, don't play dumb riddles, let's answer together!" "Taiwan!" The three of them spoke in unison, and couldn't help but daxiao. Ma Kai asked: "I took a cursory look, it seems that you only have one brigade of troops, so it is difficult to transfer only one brigade?" ”
Shao Bo said with a smile: "Our First Army was ordered to all go south, our department is the advance brigade, and the large army is behind. I heard that an army was also requisitioned from the Eastern Front to go south, so I guess the target must be Taiwan. "Great, we can fight side by side, it can be said that we have met thousands of miles away!" Ma Kai laughed. Li Tie patted Shao Bo's shoulder and teased: "Your kid is a beauty in his arms, and two bars have been added to the shoulder card." If you don't die in a catastrophe, you will have a blessing, but you will make a lot of money! ”
"Alright, don't squeeze me, you're the pride of the army. The liaison officer said that on the order of Shangfeng, there is a special unit to take this cargo ship, and due to the lack of space, my guard company has been driven off the ship to make room for you, which Cheng thinks is you. Ma Kai said with concern: "Isn't my sister-in-law in the army, why haven't you seen her?" "Mia is in the field hospital of the military department, and she acts with the military department."
Li Tie said mysteriously: "Brother, I want to know what you and your sister-in-law are talking about, can she understand?" Isn't it the overlord who is the bow! "You kid will be damaged, the dog can't spit out ivory in his mouth." Shao Bo punched Li Tie, and the three of them got up again. After all the special soldiers got on board, they carried out baskets of steaming buns from the cabin, and everyone began to eat them, and the deck was filled with singing and laughter.
Soon the fleet set out in a mighty manner, and the whistle sounded on the sea like a trumpet of march. When the fleet arrived at the sea of Wusongkou, it happened to encounter the huge battleships Zhonghua and Shenzhou. The majestic battleship and the thick main battle gun are particularly impressive. The neatly arranged sailors, beanies, black streamers, navy uniforms, and colorful flags on the battleships on the deck form a beautiful scenery.
The battleship sounded its whistle, and the sailors raised their hands in salute. The soldiers on the ship also spontaneously raised their hands in salute, and then began to cheer. They were extremely proud of the Imperial Navy, with such a mighty warship arriving. The huge battleship cleaves the waves and moves forward with its head held high. Shao Bo, Ma Kai, and Li Tie had tears in their eyes, and they couldn't calm down. They were convinced that the Imperial Navy was about to sail across the oceans. (To be continued......)
