Chapter 21 is imperceptible
The division of civilization has become a scoundrel and a robber. No matter what the victim thinks of this incident, Zhang Honglian, one of the parties involved, enjoys it anyway. Things have developed to this point, and it is no longer meaningful for the 206th Division to resist by force. The new 116th Brigade has even taken away its weapons, and although the new 115th Brigade has only taken away its weapons and ammunition, can it defeat those cadets who are armed to the teeth with its empty guns that look like burning sticks? If Chongzuo can't get it back, Song Yi and the others will be able to go back to Chongqing, and they will definitely have to go to a military court. Rather than this, it is better to be a "prisoner" here, so that in the future, once the student army withdraws from Chongzuo, they will also have an excuse to respond to the doubts of the upper peak; What kind of struggle did we go through to drive out the Cadet Army? Thinking about it again, the military council was able to acquiesce to the temporary surrender of the desperate Central Army to the Japanese in order to preserve its strength, and it didn't seem like a big deal that they were captured by the Cadet Army - the peachy incident caused by a woman had a happy ending after a banquet at the top of the 13th and 206th Divisions. Chongzuo has been the territory of the Xuebing Army since then, and the Liuqiao Military Camp will also be borrowed by the Xuebing Army. As for the original masters, the 206th Division, they will continue to stay in the Liuqiao barracks under the guise of "prisoners". In addition to not being allowed to leave the barracks, not to carry weapons, and not to destroy the friendship between the two departments, they can move freely in the barracks, and they can even have zero contact with the soldiers.
The Liuqiao barracks could only accommodate about 5,000 people, but a week later, with the four new barracks rising out of thin air and the completion of the three new training grounds, this barracks was able to accommodate all the people of the 13th and 206th Divisions. At the same time, the 13th and 206th Divisions completed the handover of Chongzuo's military affairs, and 10 days after the 13th Division entered Chongzuo, the 2nd Engineer Regiment of the 5th Army began to build an airfield in Muliu, about two kilometers north of the barracks.
Once the construction of Liuqiao Airport began, the Liuqiao barracks became extremely lively, and at the same time, the two groups of officers and soldiers in the barracks who were originally distinct inevitably intersected.
Because the central media controlled by the Chongqing government focused on the Cadet Army when reporting on it, the soldiers of the 206th Division, who basically came from the rear, had a bad impression of the Cadet Army at the beginning. Now that he has become a prisoner of the other party inexplicably, he is naturally even more disgusted with the student soldiers. When the central media report on the armed forces of local troops or warlords, they often use terms such as "banditry" and "bandits." And the performance of the Thirteen Divisions today is really full of gangsterism. Therefore, at the beginning, no matter how friendly and tolerant the cadets were to the officers and men of the 206th Division, the officers and men of the 206th Division just didn't buy it; apart from their daily training and study, they nested in the barracks the rest of the time, or they collectively stood at the door of the barracks and watched coldly, and anyway, they just refused to take a step into the barracks of the cadet army.
Yang Chuntai left the 206th Division in Liuqiao Barracks instead of directly deporting it with ill-intentioned motives. The reason why he allowed the officers and soldiers of the 206th Division to wander around the barracks was because he had a subtle idea of digging into Song Yi's corner. It's just that he seems to have underestimated the influence of Song Yi and others on the soldiers. For seven consecutive days, not a single soldier of the national army entered the barracks of the headquarters curiously, Yang Chuntai and other senior officials of the division did not say anything, but Zhang Honglian was anxious - he came up with the bad idea, and he was worried that Chongqing would take action after knowing the truth. If someone in Chongqing gets nervous and really mobilizes a large army to come to Chongzuo, it is difficult to say what will happen at that time. He asked his three regiment commanders to discuss this matter and gave instructions: If they don't come to provoke you, you won't take the initiative to attack? Choose a few self-cooked ones for me and let them take the initiative to talk.
When the airport was built, the more professional work was naturally completed by the sappers, and things like cutting wood and transporting stones had to be coordinated by the 13th Division. The construction of a large airport was not an overnight effort, and Yang Chuntai divided his men into three groups in turns, and the first to take turns was Zhang Honglian's 37th Brigade. As soon as the 37th Brigade was put into the construction of the airport, the structural characteristics of the Cadet Corps were immediately manifested.
Starting with Zhang Honglian, all the people in the brigade were dispatched. It happened that the officers and soldiers of the 206th Division were running, and when Tu Chenggang, who was standing on the edge of the playground with his hands pinned, saw Zhang Honglian, who was wearing a beret and carrying a long-handled axe, and a group of small soldiers walking over with a smile and a smile, he couldn't help but be stunned and said in his heart; What kind of training subject are they?
The 13th Division and the 206th Division will have morning exercises, and they also have their own training courses, in comparison, the training subjects of the Cadet Army are much more complicated than those of the 206th Division, and the training intensity and duration are far greater than those of the 206th Division.
Not only Tu Chenggang was puzzled, but the officers and soldiers of the national army who ran in line around him also looked at the group of students who ran over with puzzled eyes, and a question mark lit up in their hearts.
"Lao Tu, it's early!" Zhang Honglian walked to a place about ten meters away from Tu Chenggang and greeted him familiarly.
Tu Cheng just nodded reservedly.
There were more than 3,000 people in the 37th Brigade, and it took about five minutes to walk halfway. At this time, the officers and men of the country had already completed their running drills and were resting in place. They whispered, speculating about what training subjects the cadets were going to undertake.
"Where is the training subject, just cutting trees!" A student soldier suddenly said to a group of national officers and soldiers who had gathered together.
"Cutting down trees? Do you still need to build barracks? "One of the soldiers couldn't help but talk.
"It's not a barracks, it'sโwell, it's a secret, I can't tell you," the cadet paused, "Do any of you know how to carpenter?" Hey, we're looking for carpenters, and you can get that if you do a day's work. He said mysteriously, holding up two fingers.
"Two dimes?"
"Two corners?" Xuebing pursed his lips, "Two pieces!" โ
"Two dollars a day, wow, that's sixty a month! Obediently, you students are really rich! โ
"I don't usually drive so high, but now it's urgently needed."
โฆโฆ If there is a first conversation, there will be a second one, and after three times, it will not be one or two people but a group of people.
And as the conversation turned into communication, the soldiers could no longer contain their curiosity.
First of all, it's about food. The 206th Division is now a guest of the 13th Division, and naturally enjoys the same treatment as the cadets. Looking at the present, the treatment of the cadet army is naturally the best. The level of food has suddenly increased a lot, and it is impossible for the soldiers of the national army not to yearn for it. Of course, as the chief, Song Yi and the others naturally want to curb this kind of sign. The explanation they gave was that the student army was just slapping the face and becoming fat, and dying to save face and suffer the crime.
"Hey, what do you usually eat?"
"Isn't it the same as you ask this question? Our cooking class is working hard now, and we have to make double portions. โ
"I said usually."
"That's usually it."
"Wouldn't it? What about the officials? โ
"The officers will be slightly better, but the difference is not very big. How to hold on to this problem? โ
The food is followed by the salary, and this comparison is incredible. The difference in simple pay is not very big, after all, the 206th Division, as the expected American mechanic, is paid a higher salary than ordinary troops. However, in addition to the monthly salary, the soldiers also have a variety of other subsidies, and what makes the soldiers of the national army most envious is that the devil killer actually has money.
"Have you ever killed a devil?"
"I've killed two."
"That's forty dollars?"
"Yes! It will be paid within one month after returning. โ
"Tsk, really?"
"What do you mean? How to fake this kind of thing? โ
After the topic of salary, other various topics followed.
"Did your brigade commander really cut down trees with you?"
"Nonsense, didn't you see our brigade carrying an axe?"
Scratching his head, a little embarrassed, "But, I thought he was just putting on a show." โ
"Cut, you're talking about the old man in your division, this doesn't exist in our student army."
"I ask you, I heard that your guns can fire continuously?"
"Didn't you see it all?"
"Tsk, the Cadet Army is really wealthy, and the soldiers at the bottom are equipped with light machine guns!" This is an ignorant statement. After he finished speaking, he was laughed at by his comrades-in-arms: "If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense, it's a submachine gun, okay?" โ
"Self-cooked" was amused in his heart, and said with a straight face: "It's not all submachine guns, or assault rifles." โ
After talking about professional issues, it's time for everyday life.
"I heard you still have to study at night?"
"Well, the instructors will teach us to read and write."
"What's the deal with that pre-dinner singing?"
"This, this is our tradition! Sing a song before the meal, and the meal will be delicious! โ
โฆโฆ Only a week after the airport was built, the soldiers of the 206th Division began to run to the barracks of the 13th Division. Then, when the soldiers talked about the cadet army in private, there were no words such as bandits, robbers, and barbarism, but they were full of envy, and some even began to ask the cadets: Do you still need people in the cadet army? Song Yi and the others didn't pay attention to the interaction of the soldiers at first, but once they realized that something was wrong, Song Yi immediately found Yang Chuntai Xingshi and asked: "The surname is Yang, what do you mean?" I don't take you like this! Lao Tzu's soldiers will be abducted by you! โ
Yang Chuntai pretended to be stupid and said very unhappily: "Master Song, you have to pay the responsibility for what you say!" When did I kidnap your soldiers? โ
Song Yi: "No crutches? You go to Lao Tzu's camp to go around, and now you are talking about how good you are in the army, surnamed Yang, don't force Lao Tzu to be anxious, force Lao Tzu to be anxious, Lao Tzu can do everything. โ
Yang Chuntai was even more unhappy, pointed at Song Yi and said, "Master Song, why are you unreasonable?" Your soldiers talk about our soldiers, what does it matter to me? Do you think I instigated it? Do I have that spare time? โ
The generals born during the Republic of China had a very bad tradition, that is, they were accustomed to treating the troops as their private property. This has led to the occurrence of some generals who will lose power and power once they become alone. Song Yi was too nervous about the 206th Division, which would make him so angry. As soon as he was excited, he didn't think clearly and came to Yang Chuntai to ask questions, but he was stopped by asking instead.
