Political Commissar Ding turned to tea jar: "The superiors asked each department to streamline the team and improve its combat effectiveness. In principle, one gun should not exceed two people."

Commander Lu became more annoyed the more he thought about it. He sat at the table and picked up Ding De's teapot and drank it clean: "There are few new recruits in the first battalion, and the second battalion got more guns from the mountain, so there is no problem, but the third battalion must reduce at least two companies. We have not yet figured out their true background, the Ninth Battalion, your favorite general, until now."

Political Commissar Ding lifted the kettle and filled the cup with water: "You are the leader of the group, why did you ask me?"

Commander Lu was unwilling to accept it: "The county government asked the Water Protection Group to return to the county armed forces department, but we couldn't refuse. After all, the Water Protection Group itself is not an independent team..."

The political commissar sat down and looked at the commander Lu: "Qiufeng Guerrilla Brigade is also mingling with the Ninth Battalion... What are you going to do?"

"Hehe, when our independent group was poor as three companies, no one looked down on us if my uncle didn't love her grandmother and didn't love her. He could only sit in the last row when he went to the division to attend a conference. This time, someone had just made some progress, and someone had his ideas on us."

"Then I wish you can sit in the first row when the meeting is held in the future..." Political Commissar Ding knew what Captain Lu was complaining about: "Yang Deshi became the county magistrate. We can't say anything even if he wants the Water Security Group. It's best to let the Ninth Camp solve the problem by itself."

"Yang Deshi is a man from the Independence Group. The married woman bought the water from the water, but he could do it."

"It's all comrades, but Buxing said that. Do you feel uncomfortable seeing that they are at the same level as you now?"

"Haha... can the armed forces in other places compete with me?" Speaking of this, Captain Lu added: "According to the requirements of superiors, our independent group can already take off the hat of the C Group and apply for the A Group directly."

"It's not enough to rely on people to make up the numbers. Equipment must be considered with superiors."

"It doesn't matter if the county government wants people. The water protection group is complex. The ideological work of the Ninth Camp itself is not up to the table. They made such a big noise in the enemy-to-me-combination area. If it weren't for the water protection group, they would face Japanese raids at any time, and sometimes it wouldn't be a good thing to keep in their hands."

"You really want to give up like this?"

"The Independent Group is now close to three thousand people. Can you look at it a little longer?"

"How do you say this?"

"The superiors asked us to send the Second Battalion to pick up the friendly staff. Can't you still see it?"

"Hundreds of thousands of friendly troops can't defend our arms and legs..." Commander Lu said this and stopped immediately and quickly turned over the map: "The Second Battalion and the Ninth Battalion have gathered together again. They all came back from the south... Interesting..."

"The last time the battalion-level cadres were trained, our independent regiment had no information to catch up. This time, the company, the platoon-level commander's affairs in the Anti-Japanese War should not be ruined." The political commissar looked at a document in front of him: "It has been almost a month since the school started in other units, and our personnel have not yet had a plan."

Commander Lu looked at the map and didn't look up: "How about this, you go and apply to the division and set up a branch here..."

"You really want to..." The political commissar suddenly stopped when he said this: "You can try..."

...

Two sentries were hiding beside the path, carefully observing the figures approaching.

"Hey, why do I look at that one that looks like Xiao Hongying?"

"Well, that's right, it must be. There is no second one in Taihang Mountain in such a small military uniform with braids on his head."

"My mother, is the dehuman girl really back? This wine station is their territory. This doesn't seem to be a good thing, right?"

"Behind the dehumanized girl is Ma Liang, hey, that's Battalion Commander Hu..."

"That big guy is Luo Fugui, and the one behind is Li Xiang. Oh, they are carrying it like a mortar?"

"The one behind seems to be the third company commander of the Third Battalion?"

"It's him..."

...

"You go and report to the team leader quickly, I'm staring here..."

The guard post ran across the suspension bridge: "Report to the regiment commander, the Ninth Battalion is back..."

“Where…”

"I have passed Qingshan Village."

Commander Lu no longer looked at the map: "These uneasy people finally arrived, where is the little girl?"

"Uh, she brought a group of friendly troops, and the majority of the family had submachine guns on their chests...Ma Liang, Luo Fugui, Li Xiang were all there, and he was carrying a mortar... The third company of the Third Battalion was also here..."

"Where is Gao Yidao?"

"I haven't seen it..."

"Okay, I understand..." When the sentry left, Commander Lu grabbed the military cap on the table and looked at the political commissar: "Go and take a look?"

"They will come to see you sooner or later, what are you anxious about?"

"That's right..." Commander Lu returned to the top and sat down: "It's interesting to mix with the people from the Ninth Camp together..."

Ding Deyi looked at the thoughtful expression of the group leader and was a little surprised: "Hu Yi and Hao Ping reconciled? This is impossible..."

"This is the job you political commissar needs to do, don't ask me..."

"The Ninth Camp regards the Third Camp as its mortal enemy. Even Gao Yidao's people were clearly distinguished when they were with the Ninth Camp. This matter was strange." The political commissar directly grasped the key point: "If the Ninth Camp and the Third Camp are no longer hostile, hey, they are all uneasy."

"Hehe, the only benefit of our independent group is that we can make our own ideas. Now County Mayor Yang has asked the command of the Water Protection Group through his superiors. I want to see what tricks the little girl can play this time."

Captain Lu was like a cat-catcher in his heart, and time passed so slowly.

Until a small braid appeared on the entrance of the regiment department.

Then there was a military cap with a hole on the top of his head, and then his two big eyes were exposed.

Xiaodou, who stood guard with his ears raised outside the door, smiled and weighed the whole box of undisassembled bullets that Xiao Hongying had just stuffed him.

The people in the room didn't seem to see him. Xiao Hongying showed half of her head and then rushed into the room with a whoosh: "Oh...I'm back..."

Commander Lu was "scared" and looked up: "Oh, am I dazzled? Who is this?"

"Hehe, uncle, we're meeting again..."

Commander Lu smiled and said, "Tell me first, what happened this time?"

Xiao Hongying looked at the political commissar: "I will tell you a good news first..."

"After leaving for more than half a year, you'd better tell bad news first..."

"It's bad news...we suffered heavy losses this time..."

Captain Lu put away his smile: "What the hell is going on?"

"This matter is a long story..." Xiao Hongying began to talk about it from the exchanges between her and her friendly forces.

Commander Lu waved his hand: "Stop, stop, stop, Ma Liang had already reported this matter when he returned to the base area... Tell me the key points."

Xiao Hongying continued to laugh: "Later, I went to the district and originally planned to eliminate the reactionary sect, but those people came to the door. Has Gao Yidao reported it?"

Captain Lu pointed at it: "Well, there is no need to say this paragraph..."

"Later we entered the mountain, and then the Japanese advanced into the team to target us. We walked around the friendly defense zone for most of the time, and then we came back..."

The Japanese Advance Team usually only attacks the first-level command of the Eighth Route Army Division Brigade. Commander Lu is a little suspicious: "Will the Japanese Advance Team look at you?"

"Yes, we later fought the Japanese train station.

"Fight the Japanese Railway Station? Or by the way?"

Xiao Hongying was confident: "Well, just by the way?"

"What happened to you later?" Commander Lu pulled the cup in front of the political commissar again and poured it into his mouth: "What's going on with the friendly forces you brought back?"

"Uh, it's a friendly defeated soldier. They have no place to go, so follow us for the time being..."

"Why did the division send a telegram..."

"That we met the secret service group, they have a radio station..."

"What's going on with Hao Ping's third company?"

"Three-company? Of course Hao Ping's three-company is in Dabeizhuang..."

"He Chuanlin is the third company commander of the Third Battalion, right?"

Xiao Hongying stared at her clear big eyes: "You must have remembered it wrong. He Chuanlin is now the deputy platoon leader of the reconnaissance platoon in the Ninth Camp..."

Puff, the sip of water that Captain Lu had just taken... almost sprayed on the political commissar's face: "Cough cough... and the reconnaissance platoon? Where is Hu Yi? Tell him to come over and see me quickly..."

Xiao Hongying quickly stepped forward and hammered the back of Captain Lu: "You haven't finished hearing the bad news yet..."

"Then...you keep talking."

Xiao Hongying's eyes turned red: "The friendly forces were defeated, and they were completely defeated. Their army hospital was surrounded by the Japanese, and nearly two thousand people... died... they all died..."
