The arrival of Zhan Haishan, the deputy head of the regiment, did not affect the reorganization of the special service group.

On the contrary, he helped Zhou Xianpei a little bit and helped him share some of the ideological education work for the recruits.

- Now that there is no war, Yang Yuanshan sent him to follow Zhou Xianpei.

I happen to be familiar with the work of the secret service group.

……

Two days later, Shen Quan, Wang Huaibao, Ding Wei, and Kong Jie all sent people to take away the artillery that Yang Yuanshan had promised them.

As soon as these guys returned to their respective stations, they were impatient to send people over, fearing that Yang Yuanshan would regret it.

After all, 4 guns and 200 shells, that's not a small amount!

Of course, Yang Yuanshan would not regret it, and asked them to help Zhao Li clean up the warehouse without care.

At the same time, he also sent the eight cannons promised to Li Yunlong to Liuling Pass.

-- It is not a matter of time for Li Yunlong's military division headquarters to move to Zhaojiayu.

……

On this day, Yang Yuanshan pondered that he hadn't gone out for a long time, and was about to go to Qixia Town to go around, when suddenly a thick pile of telegrams came from the telecommunications room:

"Regiment commander, a telegram from the higher authorities from the military division headquarters."

He took it and looked at it, and was immediately excited.

I saw that this thick pile was full of commendation orders.

It was the higher-level leaders who commended the various units and individuals of their special service battalion for their contributions in the First World War in Heyuan County.

He understood that this must have been the result of the battle confirmed by the superiors through intelligence from all sides.

That's why a commendation order was issued.

He immediately went to the door and shouted outside:

"Xiaohe, go and call the political commissar and the deputy head of the regiment to a meeting!"

"Yes!"

Zhang Xiaohe went to call someone, and Yang Yuanshan looked at this telegram first.

If it has anything to do with specific fighters, he won't look at it.

Pick something related to yourself and take a look.

found that his superiors gave him two more first-class merits, and he was simply a winner.

The first time was to seize the flag of the little devil's wing, and the second time was to hand over 8 X-ray machines.

He couldn't help but mutter:

"How many times has this been a first-class achievement?

Four times, right?

It seems that it is not impossible to achieve eight first-class merits! ”

……

After a while, Zhou Xianpei and Zhan Haishan came in together.

In the past few days since he came to the secret service group, Zhan Haishan, who was originally emaciated, had a little rudder on his face, which was obviously the result of eating well.

In the past few days, he has never thought about returning to the 772nd regiment.

"Commander, what's the matter?"

Zhou Xianpei came in, saw Yang Yuanshan's face with joy, and immediately relieved his heart, and hurriedly asked.

"It's the superiors who sent us a commendation order, you see.

Because our spy battalion was the first to break through Heyuan County, it was recorded as a collective second-class meritorious service.

Because the brigade of the 225th Wing of the little devils and the brigade that blocked the water source for two days and killed Major General Yizhong Shuiyuan, they were recorded twice as a collective first-class meritorious service! ”

Yang Yuanshan handed over the telegram in his hand.

Zhou Xianpei took it, gave half of it to Zhan Haishan, and read it one by one.

Then he shouted excitedly while watching:

"Commander, there is another letter from the leader of my hometown!"

Yang Yuanshan took it and took a look, and was immediately pleasantly surprised, he hadn't noticed it just now.

This turned out to be a telegram written by the same hand, and the words were very bold and surging, and it gave their special service battalion a fierce commendation.

In particular, the capture of the wing flag and the surrender of the X-ray machine were highlighted.

He immediately understood that this was probably Wei Dayong who had arrived at the headquarters and delivered the X-ray machine safely.

And the headquarters must have sent someone back a few X-ray machines immediately.

That's why it alarmed him.

Thinking that he might have already hung up on it, Yang Yuanshan couldn't help but wonder in his heart: When he is awarded the title in the future, will he get a preferential treatment - "Yang Yuanshan is meritorious, and he is less promoted"?

Maybe your own credit isn't enough, right?

Driving these cranky thoughts out of his mind, Yang Yuanshan happily arranged:

"Hahaha, the big guy did a good job this time.

Lao Zhou, let's have a commendation meeting tomorrow.

Read out these commendation orders in public to boost everyone's morale.

I see that in the past few days, the recruits of the battalions have some complaints because of the intensity of their training. ”

"Good!"

Zhou Xianpei agreed.

After reading those telegrams, Zhan Haishan next to him was very shocked, and couldn't help asking:

"Regiment commander, is this the credit of our regiment in a battle?

That's too much, right? ”

"Haha, to be precise, the soldiers of our regiment have achieved results in less than 5 days!"

Yang Yuanshan laughed.

"What?

Less than five days?

It's incredible! ”

Zhan Haishan felt a little ashamed.

He was in the fourth battalion of the 772nd regiment, and in the past few years when he came to Jindi, it seems that he has not made such a great contribution!

Our 772nd Regiment is the main force!

- His heart is roaring!

……

The next day, Zhou Xianpei organized the whole group and held a formal commendation meeting in the open space outside Qixia Town.

Different from the simple reading of the commendation order from the superior a few days ago, this time, because the superiors have assessed the specific merit grades of the soldiers and combat units who have made meritorious contributions, Zhou Xianpei named them one by one, called the soldiers who had made meritorious contributions to the stage to wear big red flowers, and also awarded certificates of merit.

This big red flower was cut out of red paper by Zhao Li and asked the ladies in the village to cut it out of red paper, which is very simple.

And the certificate of award was also written by Zhou Xianpei himself, and it was stamped with the seal of the secret service group.

This scene made Yang Yuanshan feel so embarrassed that he wanted to use his toes to buckle the ground, and there was a sense of déjà vu before crossing over, watching the kindergarten give out awards to children.

But it works surprisingly well.

The soldiers who were put on the big red flowers, all of them were full of energy, and they couldn't wait to fly into the sky immediately to stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun, and secretly poked and decided to treasure the award certificate in their hands and treat it as a family heirloom in the future.

Even Feng Shuanglin, who has always been steady, was so happy that he couldn't keep his mouth shut, took the award certificate, and ran to show off in front of others.

And those soldiers who have not made any contributions, their eyes are full of envy, and they secretly poke and poke in their hearts to make up their minds that the next time they fight, they must behave well, and they must not be afraid of death and dare not charge.

Zhan Haishan saw that the soldiers of the special service group were so well armed and equipped, and their morale was so high, and he immediately understood why they were able to make these contributions.

……

After the commendation meeting, as soon as Yang Yuanshan returned to the regiment headquarters, Han Yang hurriedly ran to report:

"Regiment Commander, there is a situation in the 358th regiment."

Hearing this, Yang Yuanshan raised his eyebrows and asked:

"What's wrong?

They're itchy again?

The loss last time was not big enough? ”

"No, it's the scouts I arranged to come back and report, saying that a few days ago, Chu Yunfei's 358th Regiment suddenly announced that it had been reorganized into the 9th Independent Brigade of the Sixth Group Army of the Jinsui Army, and it was recently pulling out and expanding the army in the villages near Xipan Town!"

"The 9th Separate Brigade?

Good guy, Chu Yunfei is now a brigade commander!

This guy hasn't been fighting any lately!

This promotion is faster than the regiment commander, and sure enough, there are people in the court who are good officials! ”

Yang Yuanshan couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Then he asked:

"Have you ever inquired about the strength of this 9th Independent Brigade, how many people are in the organization, and how many heavy weapons are equipped?"

"I don't know about the heavy weapons, but I heard that the number of people is 7,000."

Han Yang replied.

"7,000 people, not a small force!"

Yang Yuanshan's brows tightened.

He had been thinking about squeezing the 358th regiment out of the northwest of Shanxi, but he didn't expect that the other party would expand before he started now.

Although it has only expanded from more than 5,000 to more than 7,000, the brigade-level establishment and the regiment-level establishment are different in the end!

He pondered for a moment, and then immediately asked:

"Han Yang, how is the reorganization of the first battalion now?

When I just gave the commendation meeting, there should have been thousands of people watching you. ”

"The personnel have been replenished, but there is still a long way to go before they can form combat effectiveness."

"Just make up the staff."

Yang Yuanshan nodded, walked to the door and shouted outside:

"Xiaohe, go and call the political commissar, deputy regiment commander and battalion commanders to a meeting!"
