Chapter 226: New Year in Longzhou

readx;? Because he still had to go from Guangzhou when he returned to Nanjing, and some of the weapons and materials he wanted to bring back to Nanjing did not need to be transported to Longzhou County, Wang Haitao rented six large inland river freighters of 5,000 tons in Guangzhou to load the materials to be sent back to Longzhou, and Tang Renli escorted them with two platoons of soldiers of the guard regiment, while he himself rushed back to Longzhou County by land with a convoy. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info A platoon of fighters was left behind in the material warehouse of the port of Guangzhou.

At three o'clock in the afternoon of the next day, Wang Haitao's motorcade rushed to Longzhou County, and when he saw the familiar old city wall of Longzhou County, Wang Haitao's heart swelled with an indescribable feeling. It is the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, the atmosphere of the New Year in Longzhou County is very strong, in recent years, there are many people who have been soldiers in Longzhou County, and a few factories have been added, the people's lives have improved a lot, the city is also very lively, the streets are full of people, and they are the last people to buy New Year's goods.

The convoy was basically composed of soldiers from Longzhou, and it was not easy to return home during the war years, so after Wang Haitao arrived at the military camp in the city, he asked the soldiers to disband, and all of them gathered in the military camp at 8 o'clock in the morning on the third day of the Lunar New Year. As for the disabled veterans, those who are willing to come back are also returning to the barracks at this point, and Tang Renli will arrange the work.

Wang Haitao drove his jeep and hurried home. After arriving in Guangzhou, Wang Haitao had already sent a telegram to inform his family that he was coming back for the New Year, and as soon as the car stopped at the door, several servants ran out of the house, greeting and taking things, and Wang Haitao had already walked into the house.

Tang Lao, Feng Gu and Tian Yu had all returned to Longzhou County from Nanning, and they were all waiting for Wang Haitao in the courtyard at this time. After seeing Wang Haitao who walked into the courtyard, Tang Lao and Tian Yu were fine, and Feng Gu had already thrown herself into Wang Haitao's arms. Wang Haitao hugged Aunt Feng and felt guilty in his heart. In the past few years of marriage, I have been busy with the affairs of the army, and I have been fighting for half a year, and I have been together less and more with Aunt Feng.

It took a while for Aunt Feng to leave Wang Haitao's arms, and Wang Haitao was able to salute Tang Lao's juniors. Tang Lao looked at the general's uniform on Wang Haitao's body, and secretly praised himself in his heart that his son-in-law was really the dragon and phoenix among people, and he had already been the leader of an army in just a few years. Tang Lao smiled and said to Wang Haitao: "Haitao doesn't have to be polite, this journey is hard, let's take a rest in the first house." ”

After entering the living room, everyone sat down, the maid brought tea, Wang Haitao saw that there were two more old people in the house, and when he asked, it was Tian Yu's parents. Later, Wang Haitao talked about the situation in the past six months after the expedition, which lasted for more than an hour, and several people who listened to it were shocked. After speaking, dinner was ready, and the family sat down at the table again. Wang Haitao took out two bottles of good wine from the gift, opened them and drank them with Donald Fenggu and others.

At the dinner table, Wang Haitao learned that Tang Lao found Tian Yu's home when he was in Nanning, and asked someone to come to the door to ask for his relatives. The Tian family, who was worried about their children, heard that their daughter was in the Binyang County military camp in Nanning, and she got along with a ** colonel.

Tian Yu also has an elder brother in the family, who works in a trading house, his father is a primary school teacher, and the life of the whole family is just general, and he learned that his future son-in-law is not only a colonel of **, but also a brother-in-law who is a major general. In the eyes of these people, not to mention the major general, even the colonel is also a figure who calls for wind and rain, and the Tian family can be regarded as blessed to be able to climb this family business.

When Tang Lao and the others moved to Longzhou County, the Tian family also decided to go to Longzhou County with the Tang family. When he arrived in Longzhou County, Tang Lao found an errand for Tian Yu's brother in Longzhou County Hospital, and the Tian family wanted to live alone, but Tang Lao left the Tian family on the grounds that there were few people in the house and they were more lively together.

After dinner, Wang Haitao took a good bath and returned to the bedroom, Aunt Feng had already waited in the bedroom, and the two hugged each other to talk endless lovesick words and endless parting feelings. I don't know how long the wind and rain lasted this night, and the two fell asleep in each other's arms exhausted. The next morning, Wang Haitao got up, today is the Chinese New Year's Eve, there are many things to do.

The first thing Wang Haitao did was to drive to the arsenal, and he wanted to discuss with the two factory directors about setting up a small arsenal in Jurong, because Longzhou was too far away from the front line, and his troops had many automatic weapons, and the supply of ammunition was a big problem. If an arsenal is also set up at the base in Jurong, not only will the ammunition supply be much better, but also the maintenance and replenishment of guns will be much more convenient.

After living in China for a few years, Rolf and Jonas have become accustomed to and like here, this time after listening to Wang Haitao's request, it was decided that Jonas would bring some engineers and technicians to follow Wang Haitao, and the two bullet production lines in the factory were also dismantled and taken away, Wang Haitao was very happy to propose the support of the two factory directors, and after encouraging the two, let Jonas prepare the equipment and raw materials that need to be taken away.

Leaving the arsenal, Wang Haitao came to the hospital again, which is now a famous hospital in Guangxi, the medical equipment provided by Wang Haitao last time is still the most advanced equipment, in the laboratory set up before Wang Haitao left to specialize in the study of penicillin, the new penicillin has been successfully developed, although it is not as good as the penicillin that Wang Haitao took out, but it is also quite effective anti-inflammatory drug. It's just that it can't be mass-produced for various reasons.

Wang Haitao originally wanted to hand over this technology to the Nanjing government in order to sacrifice fewer soldiers on the front line, but when he thought that those ** officials in the Nanjing government dared to trade anything, these medicines were very likely to fall into the hands of the Japanese army. Therefore, I gritted my teeth and decided to build a pharmaceutical factory in Longzhou County, and at most the drugs produced were transferred to the Nanjing government.

Wang Haitao, the address of the pharmaceutical factory, is optimistic about the valley behind the Evil Tiger Mountain, although it is inconvenient to enter and exit, it is easy to keep secret, and it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and he is not worried that after the Japanese army comes, it will fall into the hands of the Japanese. Wang Haitao plans to discuss this matter with Tang Lao tonight and listen to Tang's opinion. In the end, Wang Haitao went to the barracks.

In the barracks in the past six months, Tang Renli has recruited 3,000 soldiers, and now because the loan ship on the wharf has arrived, most of the soldiers have gone to the wharf, and only a few hundred people remain in the camp, and the largest officer is a deputy battalion commander, who is the soldier in the reconnaissance platoon that Wang Haitao left in Longzhou County.

As soon as Wang Haitao entered the barracks, he was surrounded by these soldiers, and everyone was concerned about when Wang Haitao would take them to the battlefield. Wang Haitao said to everyone with a smile: "Don't be anxious, train hard, as long as Little Japan doesn't get out of China for a day, everyone will have a chance to go to the battlefield." Now the main thing is to guard the county seat of Longzhou, which is the fundamental place. ”

Although Wang Haitao's words could not satisfy these fighters, Wang Haitao's words were reasonable, so these fighters were helpless. Wang Haitao asked the deputy battalion commander to accompany him to the warehouse to have a look, and the soldiers surrounding Wang Haitao dispersed. On the way to the warehouse, Wang Haitao asked about the training of these fighters.

The deputy battalion commander told Wang Haitao that 1,000 of the 3,000 soldiers had been recruited by Wang Haitao when he left, and that he had been trained for half a year, and that he was already a qualified soldier except that he had never actually killed the enemy on the battlefield. Wang Haitao considered that he brought a lot of heavy weapons with him when he returned to Nanjing, and he needed to have a protective team, so it was very likely that he would take these 1,000 soldiers with him.

When he arrived at the warehouse, Wang Haitao checked and found that there were a lot of light weapons and ammunition in it, but there were few mortars and heavy machine guns, which was also related to the production capacity of the arsenal. In order to better equip the troops, the officers and men of the 90th Division seemed to have to go to the munitions depot in the mountains once.

In the evening, Wang Haitao returned home, everyone was waiting for Wang Haitao to start the banquet, there were not only Tang's father and daughter on the wine table, but also the Tian family and several relatives from Tangjia Village in Evil Tiger Mountain, and they were sitting at a big table. After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Wang Haitao talked to Tang Lao about his plan to let Tang's father and daughter go back to Nanjing with him after the New Year.

Tang Lao took a sip of wine and said: "Haitao, you are a person who wants to do great things, I am old, and I will not go to Nanjing when the leaves return to my roots." You take Aunt Feng and Xiaoyu with you, find a time for Longzai and Xiaoyu to get married, and don't let down Xiaoyu, a good boy. Besides, you still have such a big foundation here in Longzhou, I'll stay here to help you watch it, and you and Longzai will come back often when they have the opportunity. ”

Wang Haitao thought for a while and said: "It's okay, I'm relieved to have my father-in-law sitting in Longzhou, by the way, my father-in-law Haitao still has something to discuss with my father-in-law." When Donald heard this, he asked, "Oh, what is the matter with Haitao, but it doesn't matter." Wang Haitao said: "Father-in-law, Haitao wants to set up a pharmaceutical factory in Longzhou to produce the most effective anti-inflammatory drugs. Now the research room of the hospital has been successfully studied. In order to keep the formula and process of this medicine secret, Haitao wants to build a pharmaceutical factory in Tangjia Village, I don't know if it will work?"

When Tang Lao heard this, he turned his eyes to several relatives from Tangjia Village, and several people saw that Tang Lao was busy looking at him and said: "Tang Lao, this is all a family, this matter is up to you, and we all support you." Hearing this, Tang Lao said: "Okay! It's decided, the pharmaceutical factory is built in Tangjia Village, there are no outsiders there, and the secret matter will definitely be done, so I will arrange this matter, Haitao can only fight your battle with peace of mind, and don't bother about this matter." ”

Wang Haitao was full of gratitude for Tang Lao's unconditional support, and toasted Tang Lao and these relatives in Tangjia Village again and again. A big event was settled at the wine table. Wang Haitao spent two peaceful days in the warmth, Wang Haitao came to the barracks on the morning of the third day of the new year, and at eight o'clock not only all the soldiers who went home arrived, but even the disabled veterans also came back more than 70 people.

Wang Haitao still had to go to the mountain warehouse, so Wang Haitao set the day of return on the tenth day of the first month. In the past few days, the soldiers of the guard company and the reconnaissance company conducted intensive training for the 1,000 soldiers who were the first to enter the Longzhou County barracks, and these 1,000 soldiers were also the people Wang Haitao wanted to bring back to Nanjing.

After arranging these soldiers, Tang Renli also arranged for more than 70 disabled veterans, although these people are disabled, they can still do things such as doing chores in some departments and watching the door in other units. In the end, Wang Haitao called Tang Renli to the office, and after sitting down, Wang Haitao explained several things to Tang Renli.
