Chapter 12: The Aftermath of War (50)

Su Zuxin stood up, and the others also stood up, Su Zuxin walked in front of Mo Di very politely, took the initiative to shake hands with him, and said, "Go to the staff office first, know where your territory is, and then do a good job." Mo Di stood up and saluted, answered the "yes" and exited the accounting room.

Su Zuxin and Mo Dehong stood still, Yang Zanmo and Director Zeng walked out with Mo Di and walked to the West Chamber Staff Office outside, and Yang Zanmo led the way in. "Guys, put down what you're doing." Yang Zanmo said with a smile: "Let me introduce, this is the newly appointed Director Mo of the General Staff Office, applaud and welcome." ”

In the staff office, there was warm applause. The applause was mixed with more enthusiastic discussions.

Mo Di also smiled and waved his hand to everyone, which was regarded as a greeting.

As soon as the applause ended, a major officer walked out of the crowd, saluted Mo Di, and said loudly: "Wu Zhongyu, adjutant of the Staff Office of the 48th Army, salutes the commander!" The staff of the General Staff should be twenty-one, but the actual number is twenty-one, and the commander is requested to instruct. ”

Mo Di stretched out his hand, took the initiative to shake hands with Adjutant Wu, and said with a smile: "Staff department, you can be casual." ”

Under the leadership of Adjutant Wu, Mo Di met the heads of the following departments, one of whom had known each other in Mabu and had no deep friendship, and also played two haha, and both sides pretended to be very familiar. There are five rooms in this row of wings of the General Staff Office, with a hall in the middle, two on each side, a data room on the far left, and a confidential room next to the data room, where five telegraph machines work 24 hours a day. The hall in the middle is the staff war room, where most people are concentrated, with large square tables and large-scale combat maps, which can be held and discussed. The first room on the right is the adjutant of staff's office, and then there is the director's office. Before Mo Di came, this director's office had always been used by Yang Zanmo, and Yang Zanmo spent more time here than in the office of the chief of staff of the inner courtyard. When Mo Di came, the office naturally belonged to Mo Di, but Mo Di estimated that there would not be much time here, and it would soon become Yang Zanmo's territory.

Walking to Mo Di's office, it is very simple, a large desk, behind it is a large board of Bogu shelves, some porcelain and rolled up painting scrolls are placed in the Bogu shelf, a large Taishi chair is the master's seat, two official hat chairs on the side, a high coffee table is matched into a set, and there are four drum-shaped stools. Yang Zanmo let Mo Di sit down on the master's seat, and he and Director Zeng of the Political Department sat on the official hat chair on one side, and Adjutant Wu had already handed over the tea.

"How's it going, how does it feel?" Yang Zanmo asked with a smile, and then added: "Compared with being the head of the regiment." ”

"There is no comparison." Mo Di replied: "Combat troops, everything is simple, this kind of furniture, it is useless." ”

"Not to mention the combat troops, even our political department, that can't afford it." Director Zeng said.

"That's right, the Political Department, it has to be simple." Yang Zanmo said: "Especially if you are Director Zeng, don't hang the big gold watch in the watch bag." ”

Mo Di looked at the gold chain hanging from the left jacket pocket of Director Zeng of the Political Department, and also smiled, and said: "The pocket watch is a good thing, I heard that someone picked up a life because of the pocket watch blocking bullets." ”

Director Zeng laughed and said, "I didn't want to use this function, but I didn't want to wear the watch, and my wrist was too heavy." ”

The three of them talked some nonsense here, Yang Zanmo asked Mo Di to go to the Political Department with Director Zeng, go through the relevant procedures, and after completing it, he returned to the military department, and waited for him in the chief of staff's office, and some questions had to be exchanged again.

When I came back from the Political Department, it was already lunchtime, and the Military Department had its own canteen, and the staple food was rice, and the dishes were relatively simple, braised tofu with dried vegetables, and no meat. Someone in the staff office gave Mo the enemy a meal card, made a meal, and sent it to the chief of staff's office.

"Talk while eating." Yang Zanmo also sent rice, and the dishes and portions were the same as those of Moji.

Mo Di looked at the food in the bowl and said with a smile: "The life of the military department is more bitter than I imagined!" Last year, when I was in Mabu, because I didn't have a meal card, I usually took the guard company to solve the food by myself, and I ate a lot of fish in the Xiwei River. ”

"How's your food in Yuexi now?" Yang Zanmo asked.

"We have green turnips, no dried vegetables." Mo Di said. The dried vegetables are allocated uniformly from above, and cannot be allocated to the heads at the regimental level.

"Tianzong, this is to transfer you to the military department, and I am also considering it from the perspective of transition." Yang Zanmo said: "I know what Wei Yongcheng and Tang Ruru think, and when I went to the group army for a meeting, they told me that you must leave the front-line combat units in order to get the opportunity to return to school, otherwise, it will be difficult for you to get out of the current predicament and make a breakthrough." ”

Mo Di nodded, he knew that this time he came to the military department to serve, it must be the result of his friends' operation, in the 48th Army, a regiment commander, he really has no background, and the relationship with his current commanders, Mo Di can only say that it is very ordinary, especially after Wei Yongcheng is transferred, he will never get news from the military department. Yang Zanmo was able to help, firstly, because of the good fate formed in the last Dahongshan operation, and secondly, because he could not erase the face of Wei Yongcheng and Tang Ruru, Wei Yongcheng, the only Jiang family attached to the horse in the whole of China, Tang Ruru was the scoundrel of the Japanese who talked about and changed color, in the 21st Group Army, it was a very transcendent place, if Li Pinxian could give a little face to the 21st Group Army, it was these two.

If he has been serving as a regiment commander in the combat unit below, whether it is at the division level or the army level, he will not let himself leave, after all, in the land of Xiliu County, his role is irreplaceable. Therefore, Wei Yongcheng and Tang Ruru's trick is to draw salaries from the bottom of the kettle, first free themselves from the six counties in the west, liberate themselves from the front-line combat units, and then arrange to study at the military academy. I have no backstage in the army, and Zhang Guangwei, Li Benyi and others, who followed first, are still struggling for their own future, and they can't take care of themselves, Wei Yongcheng and Tang Ruru These friends can do this to this extent, which is commendable!

Yang Zanmo knew that Mo Di did not bring a radio station when he came out this time, and was going to ask the confidential room to provide a radio station to follow Mo Di's actions, but Mo Di refused, he said, he would send a telegram to the Ye Bu Tuan in a while, and let the Ye Bu Tuan send a confidential group from Heaven to Huo Shan directly to Huo Shan but the family temple to converge. However, for Yang Zanmo's proposal to talk about the field supplement group, Mo Di recognized it very much, after all, the field supplement group could not greatly reduce its combat strength or even survive because he left him.

In the evening, Mo Di still lives in the artillery regiment, dinner Yang Zanmo came to the artillery regiment to eat together, and drank a little wine in violation of the law, the brothers of the Mo Enemy Guard have nothing to kill time a day, go to the West Mountain to hunt for a day, and there is also a harvest, each of the four bamboo rats has more than four catties, fry a pot, although the pheasant meat is a little firewood, the stew is good, fresh and sweet. Yang Zanmo, who has eaten in the canteen for a long time, is very satisfied, he also has his own guard in the military department, but unfortunately there is no small kitchen, and he can only give it to everyone in the big canteen to eat, and over time, he has no enthusiasm for hunting. Li Baicheng said to Yang Zanmo, what do you want to eat, let people come to the artillery regiment to say, there is everything here, it is very convenient.

Early the next morning, Mo Di said goodbye to the Soviet military seat and Mo Deputy seat very solemnly, took his own small guards, left the deep ditch, walked to the Manshui River, rented a small boat, and went straight down to Hengshan, the seat of Huoshan County. The last time I came back from Mabu, after arriving at Heishidu, I abandoned the ship and landed on the shore, taking a dry road, and after a day's rapid march, I walked quite hard. This time, when I arrived at the Manshui River, I took a boat down the river, relatively speaking, the speed was much faster and more comfortable.

The boat from the Manshui River to the Black Stone Ferry is a kind of narrow boat, the main power is the penny, the long penny with the penny head, inserted into the water, the boatman at the stern of the boat is forcefully supported, the boat begins to float down, and then the main work is handed over to the boatman at the bow, a bamboo pole is tapped, and the boat flows along the water. Manshui River, the river surface is not big, the water flow is turbulent, and in many places, small waves are rolled up because of the rapid flow of water. The whole water flow, most of which go around in the lofty mountains, sandwich the banks of the green mountains into the clouds, very quiet and leisurely. The boatman at the stern of the boat smoked most of the time, and the white smoke that spewed out brought a bit of life to the silent river, and occasionally coughed, and caused a burst of echo on both banks.

The Mono Guards were very talented, sitting on the boat in a back-to-back fashion, leaning on each other. The seat of the Invincible is a special one, a bamboo recliner placed at the front of the boat. Wrapped in cotton clothes, lying on a chair, looking at the scenery in front of him, it is also vivid and interesting. Yesterday in the chief of staff's office, Yang Zanmo told Mo Di that the study plan that had been reported to Mo Di this year was vetoed by Director Liu Fei of the Military Command Department, and the reason was still that one, in this place in Xiliu County, Master Mo Da left, and no one could take it. It is required that within a year's time, reserve personnel will be trained to ensure the stability of this area after the departure of Mo Di, and at least the status quo must be maintained without seeking progress. During dinner in the evening, Mo Di thought for a long time and relayed He Degui's opinion when he was in Qingtianpu before. Yang Zanmo was very interested in this, and agreed in principle that He Degui should make the baggage brigade independent and become an independent logistics unit, with its own rights and obligations, and by extension, if this method is effective, it can be popularized in all directions, after all, serious economic problems have already arisen in the current Dabie Mountain Military District, especially the 11 th Group Army is facing abolition, and the 84 th Army is under the jurisdiction of the 21 st Group Army, and all the grain and grass military salaries need to be supported by a small Dabie Mountain area, and for this reason, the logistical pressure is extremely great. The integrated management of the military and political forces of the invincible field supplement regiment in Yuexi has opened a door for the Gui system in the Dabie Mountain area, and an effective attempt must be made. In the following year, Modi's main job was to systematize and standardize the previous practice in Yuexi, and then go to school for one year of make-up training, instead of two years of further study.

Mo Di knows that he doesn't have too many advantages in this aspect, so he can only face the difficulties even if he knows them. After all, in the six counties of the west, if you play for another four years with your own advantages, you may still be standing still. It's time to think about your future and expand your horizons.

With the gentle swing of the ship, Mo Di closed his eyes, and after a while, he fell into a deep sleep.
