Chapter 317: Troubled Times
The troops marched to Huiji, and happened to encounter the remnants of the 136th Provisional Brigade. Huang Youhuan inquired in the past, but it didn't take much effort to find Li and Jia. Both of them are fine, and they didn't even suffer minor injuries, but they were both disgraced. In the past, the information collected by the two was handed over to their superiors through Huang Youhuan, and they themselves had no contact with their superiors. For them, Huang Youhuan is the superior. When they met Huang Youhuan, they asked what to do in the future. Huang Youhuan didn't count it in his heart, so he could only tell them: "When I get to Anji, I'll see the situation." Wait for my letter. ”
Anji was full of soldiers, and Huang Youhuan couldn't think of any way to contact his superiors. In addition to being depressed, he was also worried about how to return to Fonba. From Anji to Fumba, there are army men arresting strong men along the road. In the middle of the night, the sleeping guests in the hotel will be arrested in a daze, as long as it is a young man, even the clerk in the store will be arrested. If Huang Youhuan walked back alone, he would have to be caught. After thinking about it, Huang Youhuan decided to pretend to be sick, admitted to the hospital in the name of a sick officer, and then tried to leave Anji in the hospital's ambulance.
When he was in military school, Huang Youhuan was seriously ill. When he saw a doctor, he met Dr. Feng, a military doctor. Dr. Feng is a native of Nanfu, who went to school in Bangkok, and the two have a lot of common language. By the time Huang Youhuan recovered, they had become friends. At this time, Dr. Feng happened to be in the field hospital in Anji. found Dr. Feng, Huang Youhuan suddenly became "sick", and the "illness" was not light. The field hospital is a tent hospital, and it can't accommodate a few patients. Two days later, Huang Youhuan was transferred by ambulance to the rear hospital. Dr. Feng wrote a note to Huang Youhuan and asked Huang Youhuan to go to his doctor friend to continue to help. As a result, when he returned to Fonba, Huang Youhuan didn't even have to live in the hospital, but only went to receive his salary once a month, which lasted for half a year.
When he was in Anji, Huang Youhuan often stayed with Li Jie and Jia Shunkui. In the Battle of Sasso, the commander of the 136th Brigade was captured, and the new brigade commander was very important to Jia Shunkui and asked him to serve as the director of the left-behind office; At this time, Li Jie was no longer a staff officer, but was transferred to the commander of the transportation company. Huang Youhuan thought that Jia Shunkui's errand was good and that he could continue to stay in the 136th Brigade to collect intelligence; And Li Jie didn't mean much to be the commander of the transportation company, so he should find a way to quit his errand and leave the army.
Li Jie's transport company is not a car transport, but a mule and horse transport. Because the war was waged in the mountains, there were no roads, and cars could not reach them. He also had a windfall when he was the commander of the transport company. In Huiji, he picked up a large number of books, including "Principles of Professional Investment", "The Great Game", "Buffett's Selected Works", "Political Economy" and so on. In the military district, these books are all banned. Li Jie knew that Huang Youhuan was fond of books, so he used his position to smuggle him back. Considering that these books would be in big trouble if they were found out, Huang Youhuan got these books to Shagou and put them at Li Jie and Zhang Yusheng's houses respectively. In the future, whenever he went to Shagou, Huang Youhuan would go to the house of these two people to read secretly. In those chaotic and depressed years, it was really a luxury to be able to read forbidden books behind closed doors like this.
After leaving the army, Huang Youhuan went to Kaiping first, and soon Li Jie also came. After that, the two went to Huiji many times, and also went to Shagou Zhang Yusheng in the name of selling sweet oranges and cane sugar. The main purpose of going to these places is to see if there is a reply from the superiors. Seeing Huang Youhuan mixed up like this, Zhang Yusheng couldn't help but blame him for tossing blindly. At this time, Huang Youhuan told him that he was working for the police.
At that time, it was difficult to find a job, let alone two deserted soldiers. Li Jie took out all his savings over the years to open a small rice milling house, and the two were busy from morning to night. During this period, Huang Youhuan and Chen Xiaohui received a marriage certificate.
In May 2005, the rice mill was about to turn yellow, and the rice mill was about to usher in the busiest time of the year. An army officer with the rank of major general came to Li Jie's small mill with two entourages. The major general officer was in his forties, red-faced, with a Payao accent, and shouted at Huang Youhuan as soon as he stepped into the courtyard: "Call your boss!" ”
Li Jie, who was shirtless, hurriedly put down the work in his hand and ran out to greet him warmly. The name of the person who came was Xie Zhenzhang, a graduate of the third phase of the artillery department of the Army Military Academy, and he was a cadet of the same period as Kun Bin and others. Xie Zhenzhang was originally a major general and deputy brigade commander of the 136th Brigade, and before the Battle of Sasso, he was transferred to the Fifth Supply Area of the Joint Logistics Headquarters to do logistics. Now, he is the sub-supervisor of the 3rd Sub-Supervision Department of the 6th Supply District, and he has returned to Kaiping. When Li Jie was a staff officer in the 39th Division, he had a lot of dealings with Xie Zhenzhang, and Xie Zhenzhang appreciated Li Jie very much. This time, he came to Li Jie specifically to ask Li Jie to be his staff officer in charge of personnel work.
It's a pie from the sky. With just one eye contact, Huang Youhuan and Li Jie tacitly agreed. Li Jie, who was bare-chested, stood up, raised his right hand stained with rice husks, and gave a standard military salute to the major general's sub-supervisor: "I will not give up, and I will not give up my humble duties!" ”
In this way, Li Jie put on his clothes again and became a soldier again. Previously, although they worked hard and sweated profusely in the small mill every day, Huang Youhuan and Li Jie were clear about the situation on the battlefield of the military and police. Just one year after the occupation of Anji, the situation in the north took a sharp turn for the worse. In March 2005, the police's field army won a great victory in Hengchun, destroying nearly 10,000 enemies, and Wei Yun, the commander of the 19th Army, committed suicide. The military was forced to withdraw from Anji, and the troops of the Jinsha Office were reorganized into two corps, of which the task of the First Corps, of which Wei Hui was also the commander, was to protect the rear, and the main one that fought against the field army was the Fourth Corps, which was commanded by Hou Jiali, deputy director of the Huiji Office.
The Joint Logistics Headquarters, the full name of the Joint Logistics Command of the Ministry of National Defense, was established by the Ministry of Defense of the military government on the advice of US adviser Max and with reference to the logistics system of the US military, and is responsible for the logistics support of all units in a unified manner. Jinchuan belongs to the Sixth Supply Zone, and its subordinate Third Military Station Sub-Supervision Department is a command organ that specializes in providing logistical supplies for the Hou Corps, and has under its jurisdiction transportation troops, field hospitals, military stations, and various warehouses. Before the soldiers and horses moved, the grain and grass went first, and all the actions of the Hou Corps and the stationing of the combat units above the regimental level had to be told to the sub-supervision department in advance. To be able to go here as a staff officer, isn't it to defend an intelligence bonanza?
Soon after Li Jie went to the sub-supervision department to take office, Huang Youhuan sold the rice milling house and got an errand as an escort at the No. 38 military station. However, if you can't find an organization, what's the point of guarding an intelligence bonanza? Huang Youhuan pondered that the war ahead was so tight, and he escorted supplies to the front line for supplies, and he might be captured by the police; Even if he wasn't captured, he was so close to the front line that he should have a chance to find the police. However, I went to work for two or three months, but I didn't find any opportunities.
For readers, the best way to kill boredom is to read books. After reading the book in my hand, I have to buy and borrow it; After reading the book, you have an idea, and you need to find people who have a common language to communicate. Because of such a hobby, Huang Youhuan will make two or three book friends wherever he goes, and Chen Cheng, who teaches at Sanyuan Middle School, is one of them.
Chen Cheng is also a native of Nanfu and has a bold personality. At this time, prices were soaring, and the salaries received by the school teachers couldn't even support themselves, but Chen Cheng, who was as thin as a hemp stalk, pulled Huang Youhuan to eat the crispy meat of Kaiping Lao Mi's house. After eating, Huang Youhuan wanted to pay, but Chen Cheng couldn't help but say that he paid the bill like a fight. On the way back, the two scolded the military again. Catching the tail of Huang Youhuan's words, Chen Cheng suddenly said: "Do you have the courage to join the police?" ”
Chen Cheng told Huang Youhuan that he had established a relationship with the police-occupied area. Speaking of which, Huang Youhuan also made it clear: "I also have a relationship over there, but I haven't been in touch for a long time." Can you help me bring a letter over? ”
That night, Huang Youhuan wrote a letter to his superiors. In addition to reporting on the current situation of him, Li Jie and Jia Shunkui, Huang Youhuan also wrote about his depressed mood after losing contact. After working in intelligence, the letters he sent to his superiors were very brief and never touched on personal feelings, but this time, he was really emotional. He thought that Section Chief Li would definitely see this letter.
Sending this letter, Huang Youhuan's depression for days was swept away. Without waiting for the organization to reply, he began to act. He wanted to bring himself closer to the intelligence.
The composition of the sub-supervision department of the third military station is as follows: the sub-superintendent is, of course, the supreme commander, and the chief of staff and the staff office are under the sub-superintendent. The staff office has a director, a personnel staff officer, and three operational staff officers. Li Jie served as the personnel staff officer of the staff office. In addition to the staff office, there is also a transportation section in charge of automobile transportation, a health section in charge of field hospitals and ambulance units, a grain and straw section in charge of various warehouses and grain depots, an ordnance section in charge of various weapons warehouses and military stations, and an ammunition section in charge of shells and ammunition warehouses.
In order to serve the Hou Corps, the operations department of the Hou Corps should promptly notify the staff office of the sub-supervision department's combat operations and positions above the regimental level, and the operational staff officers will list the details, time, and place of the supply in the combat log, which will be reviewed by the director of the staff office and the chief of staff, and then approved by the sub-supervisor, and will be carried out by each section.
Li Jie recommended Huang Youhuan as an operational staff officer. He was originally a personnel staff officer, and he was Xie Zhenzhang's celebrity, and his recommendation worked immediately. Soon, Huang Youhuan bid farewell to the No. 38 military station and went to work in the staff room.
Soon after serving as an operational staff officer, Huang Youhuan discovered the problems between the sub-supervision department and the Hou Corps. Originally, the armed forces had the initiative in combat, and the logistics support departments served them, so they were naturally passive. As a matter of course, the Corps Operations Department should promptly and proactively notify the sub-supervision department so that there is no mistaken supply. But in the Thai Army, "shopkeepers bully" are common. The people in the combat department of the Hou Corps always had a tone of "Lao Tzu is working hard at the front", and used the sub-supervision department as his subordinates. There was no way, so the sub-supervision department had to turn around and take the initiative to contact the Hou Corps. This errand can only be done by the three operational staff officers of the staff room. Among the three staff officers, Staff Officer Qi is Huang Youhuan's classmate, and Staff Officer Pang is much older, and he is five or six years older than Huang Youhuan, so the errand naturally falls on Staff Officer Qi and Huang Youhuan. Staff Officer Qi still had some complaints in private, but Huang Youhuan didn't say a word of weirdness.
From August to November 2005, the army lost more than 50,000 troops in the Battle of Henghe. In order to curb the police offensive, in addition to deploying two armies on the front line of Chuansha, he also allocated another corps to be organized into the 18th Corps on the basis of the 48th Army, which had relatively strong combat effectiveness, with Jin Zhen, commander of the 48th Army, concurrently serving as the commander of the corps, and Hou Hui, deputy director of the Huiji Office and commander of the Fifth Corps, under the unified command of Hou Hui. In November, Hou Hui moved the headquarters to Yanglou, and the sub-supervision department also followed.
One day, Huang Youhuan went to a barber shop near the barracks to get a haircut. There were not many people in the shop, and as soon as I entered, a customer on the chair in front of me put down the newspaper he was looking at, revealing a smiling face. This person is Chen Cheng.
The two of them left the shop one after the other and turned into a secluded alleyway. Chen Cheng told Huang Youhuan that the letter had been taken to the police-occupied area, and it was his brother-in-law who was the traffic officer for him. This time I came to Yanglou to get the information collected by Huang Youhuan. Huang Youhuan took several questions from Chen Cheng, and answered them all correctly. So, I found a no-man's place to change into the casual clothes brought by Chen Cheng, and went to a hostel with him. Here, Huang Youhuan wrote down the latest information and handed it to Chen Cheng to take away.
In the blink of an eye, the rainy season is over, and the dry season is coming. With the tension of the front-line war, as the core of the sub-supervision department, the staff office is also running at a high speed, and Huang Youhuan's work is very busy.
One afternoon, the herald informed him that a relative had come looking for him. Huang Youhuan hadn't been in contact with Nanfu's family for years, how could they find him? Or is it a relative of Chen Xiaohui? As a family member of the army, Chen Xiaohui also moved from Kaiping to Yanglou, rented a house outside the barracks, and the neighbors were all family members of officers like her. But if it's her relative, just go and find her, how can you find here? Perhaps, it was sent by the organization? But Chen Cheng and he had a contact information that had been discussed in advance, so there was no need to risk running to the barracks. So, who is coming?
The sub-supervision department is a key department of the army, and it is heavily guarded in front of the door. Huang Youhuan walked to the second door and saw a small man in a black T-shirt stretching his neck to look in. As soon as the two looked at each other, the little one shouted at Zheng Lian: "Cousin! ”
The little one has a local accent, to be specific, a Yanglou accent. Zheng Lian has taught here and is familiar with the accent in this area. How can I have such a cousin? Huang Youhuan was already clear in his heart: "Let's go, let's go home and talk." ”
Huang Youhuan's house is very close, and it takes only five or six minutes to walk. After entering the door, the little man stretched out his right hand and showed Huang Youhuan the word "yellow" written on a slip of paper. The characters were written by Huang Youhuan himself, with marks on them, deliberately and differently from his usual writing habits. This is the agreement between him and Section Chief Li, and strangers must have a credential to find him in an emergency. Chen Xiaohui was sewing the baby's small clothes, and Huang Youhuan said to her, "Xiaohui, you go to the door and watch a little." ”
Chen Xiaohui took the needlework, picked up a chair and sat outside the door. Only Huang Youhuan and the little "cousin" were left in the house. The "cousin" didn't speak, as if he was waiting for Huang Youhuan to speak. But Huang Youhuan didn't say a word, his face was gloomy, and he walked around the room without looking at the little one. Huang Youhuan's attitude made the little man more and more nervous, and he couldn't help but put his hand into the placket.
"Put the guy down and go inside!" Huang Youhuan's voice was not loud, but it scared the little man. The "cousin" also had a pistol pinned to his belt, but he didn't touch it. The little man steadied himself, withdrew his hand from under his shirt, lifted the curtain and entered the room. Huang Youhuan motioned for the little man to sit down, "Who asked you to come?" ”
"Superior ......" The little man still looked a little timid. In terms of size and strength, if there is no gun, he is not Huang Youhuan's opponent at all.
"Well, you said I was a relative, so it's better." Huang Youhuan nodded, as if talking to himself, and then got to the point, "What did the superior say?" ”
"The leader asked me to tell you that your intelligence is very valuable, but you also have to pay attention to protecting yourself. In the future, you will cut off all contact with Chen Cheng's line, and I will be the traffic officer. From now on, the pseudonym when you contacted the organization will be changed to 'Liu Qingyu', and Li Jie's pseudonym will be changed to 'Fan Wensheng'......"
After chatting with the two, Huang Youhuan learned that the little traffic officer was named Su Rong, a native of Huiji Qianxian County. Ordinary people are in awe of military restricted areas, especially where they are guarded by military police. Su Rong, who looked like a farmer, dared to go straight to the sub-prison department to find Huang Youhuan, where did he get this courage? It turned out that Su Rong was a soldier. The first time he went to the sub-prison department, he forced himself inside in a military uniform, but was stopped at the door. After going back, he changed into civilian clothes and went to the sub-prison department again in the name of Huang Youhuan's relatives. The reason why I had to take such a risk was because the task was urgent and could not be delayed.
Su Rong served as a squad leader in the 26th Army under the Third Army under Pi Weiru. In early 2004, when troops were stationed at the crossings on the riverside, a military plane was shot down from the opposite side, and Su Rong was sent to escort the parachuted pilot back to the rear. That time, Sun Rong felt the privileges of the military in Thailand. All the way to the door of the soft sleeper car, the pilot did not even have a kind word. On the way back, Su Rong scolded and scolded, which was quite unbalanced. The two soldiers who were on a mission together added fuel to the fire on him, and talked about opposing privileges and the like, and the reference object was how Anji was. These words were said in Su Rong's heart, and the relationship with these two became closer and closer, and later he was assigned by them to send letters twice to Chuanyu County. After winning a certain battle, those two people were going to the police-occupied area to let Su Rong stay in the army, and they would get in touch with him in the future.
However, Su Rong waited and waited, but no one came to him. Fast forward to 2005, and the military is seeing more and more failures. You can't just just wait, can you? Su Rong decided to go to Anji. To go to Anji, you must first get close to the police-occupied area. So, Su Rong broke away from the original unit, went to the 37th Brigade in Kaiping to work for a month, and settled in the Kaiping security team through acquaintances. Later, he really found the two original relationships, prepared for it, and disguised himself as a businessman and went north.
On the way north, someone found him with a photo of Su Rong. The person whose surname is Li is the head of the social department of the Kaiping County Party Committee of the police. Minister Li said that the photo was given to him by a friend from the urban engineering department of the prefectural party committee, and he wanted Su Rong to run a transportation for the organization. Su Rong wanted to go to Anji, but Minister Li persuaded him for a long time before he agreed. The person Minister Li asked him to find was Huang Youhuan, and Su Rong told Minister Li that he would only run this time. Unexpectedly, his errand of running transportation ran until the collapse of the military.
That night, Huang Youhuan arranged for Su Rong to live on the second floor of his house. Before dawn, Su Rong was woken up, and Huang Youhuan handed over the information that had been written to him. Su Rong immediately hid the information in the head of the umbrella and went out at night.
