Tang Qiuli and Zhao Yuhe's eyes lit up, and Zhao Yuhe said with a smile: "Commander Tian, don't sell it, tell me what you think!" ”

Tian Shangxi scratched his head and said: "The idea is not very mature, it is only for the reference of the division commander and the chief of staff, I think about it like this, can I reason that the officers and soldiers of the Guangzhou garrison area are basically the favorable conditions of the locals, form a number of small detachments, and sneak into Hong Kong a few days in advance to do internal response before the Hong Kong campaign is launched. ”

"There is also a more favorable condition, our soldiers, many of whom have relatives, are all in Hong Kong, which is more conducive to concealing their identities, I roughly estimated that five or six thousand people sent in are not a problem, and Hong Kong, which has more than one million people, is like a drop of water in the sea, inconspicuous! It won't attract the attention of the little devils, but I haven't thought about how to sneak in! ”

Tang Qiuli and Zhao Yuhe looked at each other and smiled, Tang Qiuli said: "Shang Xi, your idea is exactly what I want to implement, tell you, I have ordered the special operations detachment, all the staff secretly transferred to Guangzhou, that is, I plan to sneak into Hong Kong in advance, by the way, Shang Xi, when your troops are training, you must not alarm the Japanese army in Hong Kong, once the Japanese army is aware, our difficulties will increase a lot!" ”

"In my opinion, the troops that have been assembled should be dispersed to various places for secret training, and there is also the matter of forming small detachments, and after the special operations detachment arrives, you can train with them. The specific time and method of infiltration will be determined according to the situation, and the troops will be trained first! ”

After leaving the conference room, Tang Qiuli said to Zhao Yuhe as he walked: "Yuhe, you know that our division has not formed various field corps. The original Rapid Reaction Brigade? ”

Zhao Yuhe replied accurately: "Knowing the division commander, the rapid reaction brigade of the independent division was formed after the Tianjin Campaign, the first brigade commander was Liu Feng, and the deputy brigade commander was Qu Jingjiang. The chief of staff is Wang Mancang. Its predecessor was the six detachments of the Tianjin Urban Combat Team of the Independent Division, and the brigade had four regiments under its jurisdiction and had more than 16,000 soldiers. The brigade is subordinate to the Sulu Mobile Corps, numbered as the Second Brigade of the Sulu Mobile Corps, and the brigade commander Liao Zhenbang and the former brigade commander Liu Feng were transferred to the post of chief of staff of the Pingjin Garrison District. ”

Tang Qiuli said jokingly: "Not bad, Yuhe." In less than a few months as chief of staff, he knows everything about the family background of our independent division! ”

Zhao Yuhe didn't hear the division commander's jokes, and thought of another question, "Division commander, do you plan to transfer this brigade to Guangzhou as the main attack force to attack Hong Kong?" ”

Tang Qiuli nodded and said, "That's right. The old foundation of this brigade turned out to be familiar with urban operations, and most of the officers and soldiers were natives of Tianjin and knew the way in the city. Although Tianjin and Hong Kong are in the north and the other in the south, they are not far behind, and the troops only need to resume their training slightly. You'll be on the battlefield in no time! Yuhe, where is Liao Zhenbang's brigade stationed now? ”

Zhao Yuhe replied: "Garrison in Bangkok." Tactical training for landing on the island is underway! ”

Tang Qiuli said: "Yuhe, immediately give Liao Zhenbang an order, the brigade immediately changed the current training method, to urban street warfare, with Bangkok as the training base, requiring that within a month, all subjects of urban combat training be completed, and when the time comes, I will personally preside over the acceptance ceremony!" ”

Zhao Yuhe nodded and reminded: "Division commander, the strength of only one brigade of Liao Zhenbang is still not enough to form a troop advantage against the Japanese army in Hong Kong!" Are we going to mobilize other troops? ”

Tang Qiuli said: "This is exactly the second order I want to give, Liu Hongzhang and Chu Ziye of the 1st Brigade of the 1st Brigade of the Corps directly under the Corps, and Wang Yiwu and Zhao Shoushan of the 11th Brigade of the Sulu Mobile Corps, who participated in the capture of the Yangon Campaign, immediately take the garrison city as a base to conduct targeted training in urban combat tactics and tactics. ”

"Yuhe, inform Deputy Division Commander Tang of my order, he knows very well, with the strength of more than 70,000 troops in the five main field brigades, plus more than 40,000 troops in 16 regiments of the Guangzhou Garrison District, the total strength is more than double that of the Japanese army in Hong Kong. Also, order the logistics department to equip the field units of the five brigades participating in the Hong Kong campaign with recoilless guns and rocket launchers in large quantities, to reach the scale of one company per battalion, and one squad per company! ”

Zhao Yuhe asked puzzledly: "Division commander, why do you want to replace the equipment of the troops?" The troops already have so many heavy weapons, do they still need recoilless guns and rocket launchers? ”

Tang Qiuli gritted his teeth and said: "Yuhe, we don't want to make Hong Kong a mess, heavy equipment is useless, useless, but the Japanese army must have built a large number of barricades in Hong Kong, and we can't let the soldiers spare their lives, take explosives bags to blow it up, and recoilless guns and bazookas are the best weapons to deal with the Japanese barricades, and without artillery, they can also knock open the turtle shells of the Japanese!" ”

The two were discussing, Tian Shangxi rushed over from behind and said, "Division commander, chief of staff, it's already noon, I asked the canteen to prepare a meal, let's finish eating here!" ”

Tang Qiuli smiled and said jokingly: "Shang Xi, you have become a parent official in Guangzhou, and you have been an official for more than two years, I remember that you are from Hebei, why, the taste follows the habits of Guangzhou people, and it is also raw seafood or something?" ”

Tian Shang said happily: "Commander, don't say it, I'm really used to the food style of Guangzhou, but I remember your taste, Commander, there is just a Northeast cooker in the cooking class of our headquarters, you can rest assured, it is guaranteed to be authentic Northeast cuisine, and there is also hand-grabbed mutton!" ”

Because Chutian's injuries were stable, and the deployment of the Hong Kong campaign was basically determined, Tang Qiuli, who was in a good mood, couldn't help but move his index fingers when he heard that he had his favorite hand to grab mutton, and hurriedly urged, "Then don't go quickly, when you say this, I'm really hungry, and I haven't had a serious meal since yesterday!" After speaking, regardless of the two of them, he strode in the direction of the cafeteria.

Zhao Yu and Hetian Shangxi glanced at each other, they both laughed, and quickened their pace to catch up, only at this time, would they see that the division commander who commanded more than one million horses and horses showed the side of the young man, of course, the two of them were only happy, and it was their greatest comfort to see the division commander happy!

The canteen of the Guangzhou Garrison District Command, like the canteens of the headquarters at all levels of the independent division, is a spacious big room, with rows of dining tables, neat and clean, there are no high rooms or elegant seats at all, artificially dividing the officers into three, six, nine, etc., Tang Qiuli is not allowed to do that, whether it is a second lieutenant officer or Tian Shangxi, the commander of the major general, I'm sorry, everyone eats in one restaurant.

Tang Qiuli had a good meal, he was so happy that he was addicted, when he ate the mutton, he simply threw away the chopsticks, rolled up his sleeves, and grabbed it directly with his hands, making his mouth full of oil, Fu Qiang really couldn't see it, and reminded in a low voice: "Division commander, pay attention to your image, you are the highest-ranking officer here, everyone is looking at you!" ”

Unexpectedly, Tang Qiuli said eloquently: "Eating is to pay attention to a big meal, so I am most annoyed by the Western food, pretending, not to mention that it is not delicious, just that set of cumbersome etiquette, can make people troublesome without eating and full, eating Western food, that is the Chinese themselves to find guilt, hand grasp mutton, as the name suggests, is to eat with hands!" What kind of thing is what kind of thing you eat, otherwise, you can't eat that taste! ”

This table of diners is definitely a unique scenery in the canteen, the officers of the headquarters who came to eat, while eating, looked at this table curiously, the general who devoured it, on the epaulettes, hung four gold stars, and then look at the two major generals who accompanied him, including our commander Tian, with a respectful face, this general must be a big man!

Tang Qiuli ate to his heart's content, and left with a look of enjoyment, leaving behind a glorious image of a four-star general devouring food, which became a topic of private discussion among the officers of the Guangzhou Garrison District within a few days, and it was not until a year later that everyone knew that it was the supreme commander of the independent division, a legendary figure, and the division commander, General Tang Qiuli.

Immediately, it subverted the original impression of the officers, and the mysterious aura shrouded in Tang Qiuli's head completely faded, from the idol on the altar to an ordinary soldier, but it gave people a sense of intimacy of flesh and blood, he was not far from the division commander, if Tang Qiuli knew, because of a meal, there would be such a big chain reaction, which changed the officers' perception of themselves, it is estimated that if he is killed, he will not come again such a shocking act, he would rather hide in his room and feast!

After eating, he slept well, and when he woke up, it was already more than three o'clock in the afternoon, he took Zhao Yuhe and drove to Shanhu, as soon as he arrived at the secret assembly place of the special operations detachment, he saw Shanhu talking loudly, but the special combat team members who listened to his lecture were more than 50 people from Chutian's group.

Seeing Tang Qiu leaving, Shan Hu and Lieutenant Colonel Qi Hanzhi, the newly promoted chief of staff of the special operations detachment, hurriedly ran over, and Shan Hu stood up solemnly, "Report to the division commander, acting detachment leader Huang Shanhu, welcome to the division commander to inspect, please give the division commander instructions!" ”

Looking at Shanhu's serious appearance, Tang Qiuli couldn't help laughing, chatted briefly with Shanhu and Qi Hanzhi, and learned that the two detachments of the special operations detachment that had been transferred to Guangzhou would arrive in Guangzhou at about ten o'clock tonight by plane, and the other detachments would arrive one after another, and all of them would be assembled in about five days.
