Chapter 12: The Aftermath of War (46)

Stayed overnight in Tangchi, Mo Di did not return to Heaven the next day, but took a shortcut from Guanyin Temple to the list, and then went to the military headquarters of Shengoupu from the Bao family. The division headquarters sent a squad of guards to send Mo Di to Guanyin Temple, and after handing over to the guards of the field supplement regiment from Heaven, Mo Di embarked on the journey to the military headquarters. It is one hundred and eighty miles from the soup pond to the deep ditch, and it takes two days to walk fast, and three days to walk slowly.

Early this morning, the confidential room of the 176th Division received a call from the military headquarters, asking Mo Di to report to the military headquarters. After receiving the telegram, Li Xuan was the first to congratulate Mo Di and asked for a fresh and hot Director Mo. Mo Di told Li Xuan that he had also held a temporary position in the military department in Mabu before, and this kind of part-time position, if there is any, there will be no if there is none, and it is not worth congratulating. Tan Heyi shook his head and said, this time is different, it should not be a temporary position, it is an interpretation, and there is a letter of appointment. Mo Di laughed, it doesn't matter what he is, let's go and see it first.

Tan Heyi is very appreciative of Mo Enemy's attitude, whether he likes it or not, it doesn't matter, just like his attitude towards marriage last night, two words: fate. People who can be at peace with what they encounter are the strong ones in life.

Although he behaved very detached, he was able to take a step up, even if it was a small step, it was good, the chief of staff of the military department, if in the past, it was the brigade commander level, and now that the brigade level has been abolished, it can only be slightly higher than the regiment level, and it is much inferior to the division level, as for the official rank, sorry, colonel. The structure of the national army, positions and ranks, basically the commander of the general, the lieutenant general, the division commander, the brigade commander of the major general, if it is a miscellaneous army, the military rank will be slightly lower, although the Gui army is also a miscellaneous card, but it has won the attention of the Central Military Commission, and the military rank and position will not be low. For example, although Li Benyi is still a major general, he is acting as deputy division commander for division commander, and as long as the real division commander post is appointed, the tide rises and the boat rises, and the rank of lieutenant general cannot be missed. This time when he went to the military headquarters to report on his work, if he was really as Tan Heyi said, and concurrently served as the director of the military staff, if nothing else, he would at least be able to receive his colonel's salary, instead of following the field supplement regiment to raise his own food and eat. As for the main work of coordinating the joint operations of the 176th Division and the 138th Division, that was the kind words of Shangfeng, there is a way that the military order is like a mountain, and who dares not to obey the order? What's more, Li Benyi, this is a pure soldier, a soldier who takes obedience to orders as his duty, and he doesn't need coordination at all. Thinking about the two brigades of the 138th Division, Li Benyi and Zhong Yi, the two brigade commanders and two tigers, in Jinpu South Road, laid a great reputation, and now, Zhong Yi has become history, Li Benyi went out for a walk, took over the 138th Division, and recreated brilliance.

Mo Di walked easily, walked briskly, and after coming to Bang to join the guard squad from Heaven, he continued to go north, and that night, spent the night in Qingtianpu.

What Mo Di expected was that as soon as he arrived at Qingtianpu, he was taken to the local military station, and the relationship between the military station and the field supplement regiment was like egg yolk and egg green, Mo Di was the boss of the field supplement regiment, and he was not the boss of the military station. The Qingtian Military Station covers a large area, with an open-air square with various kinds of carriages and horses parked on it, and a large number of temporary goods are piled up, which are tightly covered with felt cloth. Next to the square, there is a market covered with bamboo pads, the terrain of the market is higher than the square, surrounded by square stones, inside is paved with blue bricks, separated one by one stalls, here can be shaded on sunny days, rainy days can be sheltered from the rain, than the square in front, much more luxurious. Walking past the market, there are two huge goose paw trees. Entering from the shade of the trees, on the left is the station of the personnel of the military station, and on the right is an inn that can accommodate 100 people, the hotel consists of a huge courtyard, four bungalows side by side, all of which are guest rooms, and the gate is a horizontal house, which is clearly a restaurant. Mo Di nodded secretly, this military station, just by collecting market management fees and operating hotels and restaurants, it is enough for them to ensure their income in drought and flood. According to He Degui, the biggest benefit of the military station is not here, lies in the circulation of goods, each military station has a caravan, the purchase of goods from the military station, and other military stations for exchange, or sold to Lu'an Lihuang Meicheng Tongcheng, as far as Hefei Anqing. It is not difficult for a county to have such a commercial distribution center, but the difficult thing is that there are nineteen such commercial distribution centers in a county.

Being able to operate the military station to such a scale in more than half a year can't help but praise it. Under the guidance of the staff of the military station, I walked through the shade of the trees, walked into the restaurant, passed through the lobby with more than a dozen large tables, and walked into the private room inside.

To Mo Di's surprise, pushing open the door, He Degui was standing happily in the private room, with an apron around his waist, holding a spatula in his hand, and working hard against a hot pot on the table. He said with a smile in his mouth: "The boss is so good, today the villagers hunted a big yellow sheep and exchanged grain seeds with our military station, and I also planned to send some back to Heaven for you to taste, and I heard that you were rushing over." ”

Mo Di also smiled and said, "Why are you here, Lao He?" ”

"I have to go through nineteen military stations every month, about ten days to half a month each time, yesterday in the list, today over the sky, originally had to pass the Bao family, saw that there was delicious food, so stayed, it just so happened that the boss you are still here." In the past six months, this guy has obviously become fat, his body has become much stronger, his face is red and his neck is thick, and he looks rich.

Early this morning, he received a call from the division headquarters at the regiment headquarters, saying that Mo Di was going to the military headquarters to report on his work. For the promotion of the invincible, he has always had a knot in his heart that cannot be solved, that is, once the invincible will be promoted, will the field supplement regiment be the same as the 527 regiment in Meicheng, the regiment will be in Lihuang for a long time, and the regiment will be in charge of the regiment deputy Peng Wu. In He Degui's view, this is not a good thing, he has always believed that Luo Wei, the deputy of the Wild Supplement Regiment, is a good hand at fighting, but the housekeeper may not be an expert. In today's field supplement regiment, in addition to the invincible qualifications ranked first, the number of the second row should be He Degui's turn, from Yishan, he is the battalion commander, at that time, Luo Wei was still a deputy under Xu Ping, due to Xu Ping's departure, Luo Wei was in charge of the big seal of the guard battalion, and Mo hostile to the flexible use of the guard battalion, so that Luo Wei stood out as the main leader of the guard battalion, and now became the deputy of a regiment, the rank of lieutenant colonel, rising fast, in the 21st Group Army should be ranked in the top five. He Degui believes that if the field supplement regiment is the same as the 527th regiment, and the enemy will be stationed in Shengoupu in the future, and the big policy of the field supplement regiment will be handed over to Luo Wei, then the field supplement regiment of the 176th Division will also be reduced to the same as the field supplement regiment of the 138th division. Looking at the field supplement regiment of the 138th Division today, the regiment commander, Colonel Yan Junlong, has been reduced to a recruit regiment of the 138th Division because he cannot raise his own food rewards, and he lives by training recruits for the other three regiments. If the 176th Division's field supplement regiment is the division headquarters to live by the door, the 138th Division is the field supplement regiment relying on the division headquarters to live, the result is that the life of the 138th Division headquarters is tight, and the life of the field supplement regiment is also a mess. He Degui was worried that as soon as Mo Di left, the 176th Division's field supplement regiment would also follow the old path of the 138th Division's field supplement regiment, so he decided to find an opportunity to find an occasion where there were no other people to have a good talk with Mo Di.

Therefore, early this morning, he asked the logistics department to send a truck, and under the pretext of sending the guards sent by the Ye Bu Regiment to the invincible Laibang convergence, he arrived at the Tongzhen Temple at the end of the newly built road from Heaven to Laibang as quickly as possible. Pretending to be public and private, He Degui also set off with the car. When he arrived at Tongzhen Temple, the guards waited here to hand over to the guards from Tangchi, and he took the first step to the list, and at the station of the soldiers, he proposed to ride a horse, and the horse was whipped quickly, and he arrived at the blue sky first. As soon as the sky arrived, He Degui began to handle tonight's dishes.

"I won't leave Yuexi." After listening to He Degui's words, Mo Di said with certainty: "Even if you leave Yuexi, I will definitely find a way to give you a relatively independent environment." ”

The stone in He Degui's heart fell to the ground.

"The so-called independence must be relative, you must know that your baggage brigade is inseparable from the field supplement regiment, without you, the field supplement group will not live well, and without the field supplement regiment, you will not be able to live." Mo Di said.

He Degui didn't understand why they couldn't live if they left the Ye Bu Tuan. From the current point of view, the output and transportation income of the nineteen military stations alone are enough to make their baggage troops live a very nourishing life.

"Transportation Benefits!" Mo Di laughed: "If it weren't for the gasoline looted by the Ye Bu Regiment at Dalongshan Airport, your car would not even be as good as a horse-drawn carriage." ”

He Degui was unconvinced and said, "I can buy it." ”

"Buy." Mo Di smiled again: "If the wild supplement group has other financial resources, it just doesn't help you get gasoline, or gets it back, and the price starts on the ground, what should you do?" ”

He Degui is silent.

"Your nineteen military stations, if you don't have the field supplement regiment to rely on, who will urinate you?" Mo Di asked: "You either rely on the Yuexi County Government, or rely on the 176th Division, in comparison, these two are even more stepfathers, and they are not as good as the Ye Bu Regiment." ”

He Degui lowered his head and thought for a long time, and said: "I understand all this, but I don't worry about Luo Wei, he is a graduate of the regular military academy, and the Tao in his heart is closer to Yan Junlong." According to my understanding of Luo Wei, he is more suitable to be the head of the main regiment than Zhou Mengxiong of the 528 regiment and Yang Chuangqi of the 527 regiment, but he is the boss of the field supplement regiment, he is afraid that he will not be able to afford it, and at most in a year, he will be able to get the field supplement regiment to run out of food. ”

Mo Di glanced at He Degui and nodded heavily, if there was no one in front of him, his field supplement regiment would have run out of food long ago, from September last year to March this year, for half a year, the whole regiment had more than 1,000 catties of grain every day, all of which were provided by the logistics department and the baggage brigade, and they exchanged food for the local people with commerce and services to feed the troops. Whether Luo Wei is a qualified commander of the field supplement regiment or not, Mo Di can't say well, after all, there are many people who can fight, but there are not many who can let themselves live. He Degui only knows the situation of a 138th Division's field supplement regiment, but Mo Di knows more, in the three armies of Guangxi in the Hubei-Henan-Anhui area, only the 176th Division can support its own field supplement regiment, and the others are basically very different from the previous assumption, and even unrecognizable, not only the 138th Division's field supplement regiment, but also the 171st Division and 172nd Division of the Seventh Army stationed in Lu'an and Huainan, as for the 173rd Division of the 84th Army stationed in the Jingfu area of Macheng Mall in northeastern Hubei Province, The 174th Division and the 189th Division's Field Supplement Regiment, it is said that the 173rd Division's Lingyun Shangye Supplement Regiment has become the main force of full allocation, while the 174th Division's Cen Xiongwu Field Supplement Regiment has existed in name only.

He Degui's worries are justified! This problem must be addressed at its roots.
