Chapter 160 Prestige
Xu Shijiu had participated in the Huangpi military parade. He still cannot forget that on the day of the military parade, the people of Wuhan braved the danger of Japanese bombers coming to bomb and went to Huangpi to watch the parade scene. At that time, at the scene of the military parade, the crowded heads, the cheers like mountains and seas, and the moods of all the soldiers of the military parade, Xu Shijiu was still vivid in his mind.
It is obvious that the military parade can really boost the morale and morale of the army. Through the military parade, the army will be more likely to gain the support of the people.
Thinking of this, Xu Shijiu happily agreed and said, "Commander-in-Chief Gu wants to inspect our Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in southern Anhui. That is the honor of all the officers and soldiers of our Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in southern Anhui. What reason do I have to object? I will now give orders to all brigades, regiments, and direct battalions, ordering them to come to Longkou County within three days to gather and participate in the military parade."
"Okay." Gu Zhutong said happily, "Then I'll wait and see."
After chatting for a few more words, Xu Shijiu and Gao Shenxing got up and said goodbye and left.
When Li Zihan also wanted to leave, he asked Gu Zhutong to stop saying: "Zihan, wait a moment."
Li Zihan stopped, looked back at Gu Zhutong, and asked, "What are the instructions for the chief executive?"
"Qi, I have no orders." Gu Zhutong waved his hand and said with a smile, "I just think that after the brigades, regiments and direct battalions of the 19th Detachment of the Southern Anhui Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army arrived in the county, you should contact these regiments and battalion-level officials more often and try to establish a good relationship with them. If, I mean, if, if one day an accident occurs, for example, if Xu Shijiu encounters an accident, the 19th Detachment will not collapse, right?"
Li Zihan raised his head and looked at Gu Zhutong steadily without saying anything. Could it be that Gu Zhutongzhen has decided to take action?
"Zihan, don't look at me with such eyes." Gu Zhu, "I said, I have high expectations for you. Don't let me feel disappointed again and again, okay?"
"Yes." Li Zihan stood at attention.
(Split Line)
Three days later, the brigades, regiments and direct battalions of the 19th Detachment of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in southern Anhui rushed to Longkou County.
At this time, the 19th Detachment of the Southern Anhui Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army had been expanded to have two brigades and four regiments, one artillery battalion, one cavalry battalion, and one guard battalion. The 5th Battalion had a total force of more than 5,000 people.
After the Battle of Hulu Valley, these brigade commanders, regiment commanders and battalion commanders had never met much. After meeting each other, they were particularly intimate.
The battalion commander of the regiment, Fan Xiaoha, warmly hugged He Changzhu, the battalion commander of the battalion of the regiment, and asked: "Old He, I heard that you went to Qingyang County to do some side jobs yesterday? I honestly tell you, what good things have you got?"
"There is no good thing." He Changzhu said with a modest mouth, but his expression on his face was smug, "I just made a pheasant neck straight, but it was 90% new, and it should be able to be used for a while."
After saying that, He Changzhu turned his gaze to the cavalry battalion commander Peng Wu and asked: "I said Peng Crazy, have you received the gift I gave you last time?"
The commander of the cavalry battalion, Peng Wu, was borrowed by Liang Dadan from the Fourth Detachment. Peng Wu was the brother of the new Fourth Army's cavalry division commander Peng Xuefeng. He learned cavalry tactics with Peng Xuefeng. He used a Xuefeng sword on the horse's back. Few people could defeat him. However, Liang Dadan had a lot of calculations, but he didn't do it. He begged his grandfather to borrow Peng Wu from the Fourth Detachment, but in the end he made wedding clothes for others, making Xu Shijiu a bargain.
In fact, Liang Dadan was not cheap, Xu Shijiu. Although the cavalry battalion was back and Peng Wu also compensated the 19th Detachment, he forced to steal four pheasant necks from Xu Shijiu, eight pheasant crooked hands and four grenade launchers. For this matter, Shu Tongwen was so angry that he called Liang Dadan unfaithful, and said that his psi-nationist thoughts were deeply rooted and could not be changed in his life.
Liang Dadan said to Shu Tongwen with a smile that his brothers settled the score clearly, not to mention that he and Xu Shijiu are not brothers.
After the cavalry battalion was built, it immediately became Xu Shijiu's treasure. It was stationed in Lijia Town for training and other troops secretly went out to do some side jobs on their backs, such as finding a stronghold in Yi County, or drawing a cannon tower in Qingyang. Xu Shijiu turned a blind eye and pretended not to know, but the cavalry battalion was not good. The cavalry battalion was strictly prohibited from acting without his permission.
However, two days ago, Peng Wu still carried Xu Shijiu on his back and led the cavalry battalion to attack a puppet army stronghold in Qingyang County under the name of La Lian, and seized more than a hundred military horses from there. The information was provided by He Changzhu.
When he met He Changzhu, Peng Wu's mouth immediately reached his ears. He immediately hugged He Changzhu's shoulder affectionately and said, "Old He, I'm just looking for an opportunity to thank you. Otherwise, I will put a table in Zuixianlou later, which is a thank you."
"Look at your stingy manner, I was sent away with a drink?" He Changzhu looked at Peng Wu squintedly and said angrily, "Old Peng, if you really want to thank me, then come here. Just lend me 80 cavalry, and I'll make a cavalry company, how about it?"
Peng Wu quickly turned his head and pretended to find someone else in the crowd: "Old Yang, Yang Dashu, Dashu
"Hey, hey, hey, I said, "Crazy Peng, are you tired now?" He Changzhu chased after him unyieldingly, and begged in a low voice, "Old Peng, if you really can't bear to leave a company, just give a cavalry platoon, please."
"Old He, Lao Yang is calling me. Let's talk again, let's talk again." Peng Wu fled in panic.
"It's not interesting." He Changzhu raised his little finger at Peng Wu's back, and then came to the artillery battalion commander, Duzi.
"Hey, I said, Duzi, I want to pull out a cannon another day. Can you lend me a mortar?" He Changzhu hugged Duzi's shoulder intimately, and said with a smile on his face, "I'll knock down the cannon, and I'll give you the cannon back, and there's also a thank-you gift, how about it?"
"Go, go, go, go, go." Duzi pushed He Changzhu's hand away impatiently and said, "I want to lend me a cannon, okay, I will return the mm-caliber mortar you borrowed last time to me, and I will lend you.
"Hey, I said, you can eat food randomly, and you can't talk randomly." He Changzhu shouted, "When will I borrow your cannon and not pay it back? The cannon I borrowed last time was not returned early? Don't you wrongly accuse a good person. I, He Changzhu, have always been the most trustworthy. Who doesn't know this?"
"Old He, we really don't know this." He Changzhu's words immediately attracted the ridicule of the guard battalion commander Yang Dashu. "Last time, I didn't know who said he wanted to shoot a stronghold. He borrowed five thousand bullets from me, but he still hasn't paid it back yet. Lao He, I don't have a good memory. Are you the one who borrowed my bullets? Please recall it for me."
"How can you do it? You must have remembered the big tree wrongly. When did I borrow bullets from you?" He Changzhu did not blush at all.
"Go." He Changzhu's words immediately attracted the contempt of several colleagues, and then he walked into the headquarters with a smile.
This scene was really seen by Gu Zhutong, who was standing at the corner of the street. Seeing that several battalion-level officers of the 19th Detachment got along so well, Gu Zhutong's eyes could not stop. Compared with the army at the division level, the 19th Detachment of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in Southern Anhui gave people a completely different feeling.
In the troops that are different from the three battles, factions are very strong. Almost every army, each division, and even each regiment are divided into several hills. Each hill is even more fighting openly and secretly, pulling each other back. However, in the 19th Detachment, you can hardly see these. At least, you can't see any signs of factions on the surface.
This can only explain one problem, that is, Xu Shijiu has absolute prestige in this army.
Gu Zhutong suddenly felt a little worried. If the senior officers such as Xu Shijiu, Gao Shenxing, Li Shuangqin and Niu Sigen were really killed, would Li Zihan be able to control the situation? In the battalion-level officers I just saw, except for He Changzhu and Yang Dashu, who would be willing to obey Li Zihan?
