Chapter 367: Visiting the Barracks (Part 2)
At this time, the music stopped, and a team of officers walked up on the rostrum, and two soldiers holding flags. The officers closed their seats at the chairman, and the various square formations under the stage adjusted their queues to make the queues look more uniform.
Of course, the officers sitting on the rostrum were the main generals of the 6th Army of the People's Army. Last night, Xiao Jianjun came from Tianjin and personally presented flags to the two newly built regiments. This is because the regiment level and battalion level are different, and they are already units that can fight independently. Some independent regiments and special regiments can be ranked alongside the division and brigade level, so they are naturally highly valued by the Military Commission; secondly, they are also to boost the morale of the army and prepare for the possible Beijing battle in the future.
The commander of the 6th Army, Chu Yaping, stood up from his seat, saluted the audience first, and then shouted: "The first and second regiments of the 6th Army of the People's Army, the flag-raising ceremony has officially begun. Everyone has it, stand at attention."
There was a long sound of heels standing on the ground immediately, but the speed was silent and quite neat. Lin Mugang, who was photographing on the roof of the car, gave Chu Yaping a close-up shot. In the old time and space, he was a military column, so he had seen some such scenes. Although the army queue in front of him was not as neat as in the old time and space, his momentum was not inferior to that of the army in the old time and space. Lin Mu felt that it seemed to be stronger.
In fact, this is not surprising, because the army in the old time and space grew up in a peaceful environment and did not experience war. Although it was strictly trained, it was still a little worse in momentum. Most of the People's Army soldiers on the scene were veterans, and they had been baptized by war in the past few months, so they naturally brought out a murderous aura. Although it was not fierce, it was definitely not comparable to an army without war.
At this time, Zhu Yaping said again: "The commander of the First Regiment, Zhang Zhengjie, and Qiu Yahui, the commander of the Second Regiment, came to the stage to receive the military flag."
When Zhang Zhengjie and Qiu Yahui first traveled, they were both company commanders. Among them, Zhang Zhengjie was also Luo Yue's company commander. His company was the first to arrive in the Middle East to protect the expatriates. After traveling through time, both of them made a lot of military achievements. When they were initially established at the battalion level, they were the first batch of battalion commanders, so they were the first batch of battalion commanders, so they were promoted to regiment commanders in the first batch.
If it was in the old time and space, it would probably take about ten years for the two of them to be promoted to the regiment level. In this era, it took less than half a year. On the one hand, it was the People's Army in its early stages; on the other hand, it was also because it was a war period, and the promotion of soldiers was naturally faster. In the Red Army era in the old time and space, the 20-year-old division commander, the 30-year-old legion commander, and the 40-year-old commander were all commonplaces.
The two new regiment leaders stood at the forefront of the queue. After hearing the order, they immediately stepped onto the rostrum.
Xiao Jianjun also stood up from his seat and spoke to the soldiers of the two regiments, saying: "Comrades, today is the time when our People's Army's 6th Army was officially established. It has been less than half a year since the founding of the People's Army. However, from more than 100 people at the beginning of the founding of the army, it has been more than 1600 people. And the victory of the Tianjin Defense Battle, the Weihai Battle, and the Qingdao Battle has effectively hit the rising ambitions of the imperialist invaders, and shattered the ambitions of the invaders, safeguarded national sovereignty, territory, and protect the people. These are all amazing The credit is also the result of every soldier in the People's Army fighting bloody battles without fear of sacrifice. However, the invaders were not willing to fail, and they occupied Beijing. Although they were forced to negotiate with us, they still hope to bargain with us and take back what they lost from the battlefield from the negotiating table. But we will never let them succeed. Everything is related to the national rights and interests, and we will definitely not give up in an insignificant land. The task of our People's Army is to always prepare for battle. As long as the Tianjin Executive Committee and the Military Commission give orders, all the invaders will be driven out of China's territory."
After saying that, a burst of thunderous applause suddenly sounded from the audience, and Xiao Jianjun also left his seat, took the flag from the soldiers holding the flag, and handed it to Zhang Zhengjie and Qiu Yahui in turn. After receiving the military flag, the two walked down from the rostrum, handed the flag to the flagbearer, then opened the flag, raised it high, and drifted in the wind.
At this time, the flag-raising ceremony was all over. Although the ceremony was not long, it was very symbolic, and once again made the soldiers of the People's Army feel the sense of honor and social status of soldiers, which was indeed very different from the Qing court.
The teams of various parties left the playground one by one and returned to their base. He Wenjing also returned to the roof of the car, with an excited expression on her face and said to Lin Mu: "It's great. I've seen such a scene on TV before, but I didn't expect that I could experience it on the scene in person now. It's so majestic."
Seeing He Wenjing's appearance, Lin Mu not only remembered his first interview at the military camp, but was also extremely excited. He was similar to He Wenjing and smiled and said, "Okay, calm down. We will often participate in such activities in the future."
After hearing this, He Wenjing calmed down a little bit of his emotions and said, "Damu, it's less than eight o'clock yet, what are we doing below?"
Lin Mu laughed and said, "It's rare to come to the military camp. Just go around the military camp and go to the grassroots troops for interviews. Anyway, we are all veterans, and we have applied for interview certificates."
He Wenjing was still a little unsatisfied. After hearing Lin Mu's words, he nodded and hurriedly helped Lin Mu clean up the camera. Then the two of them climbed off the roof of the car. He Wenjing asked again: "Da Mu, let's go to that army for an interview first."
Lin Mu said: "Let's go to the First Battalion. I heard that the First Battalion is the most capable battalion in the People's Army. It has made the most contributions in the Qingdao battle. Of course, we must interview them first."
He Wenjing nodded and said, "Okay, let's go to the first battalion."
After hearing their target, the two soldiers led them to the garrison of the First Battalion had no objection and immediately led them toward the base of the First Battalion.
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
After returning to the barracks, Luo Yue led the soldiers of the first battalion back to the base and held a small ceremony, which was to say goodbye to the comrades in the camp, welcome new companions, and soldiers who officially announced their promotion. In the afternoon, he had to participate in the field training for the entire regiment.
After arriving in Tianjin from Qingdao, the first battalion began to be reorganized. Luo Yue first selected 6 crossing soldiers and 96 soldiers from the battalion to supplement them to other troops. According to the military expansion plan, about 1/3 of the soldiers should be drawn from the first battalion and supplemented to other new battalions, but considering that the Beijing battle might be born not long ago, it was reduced to only about 20% of the soldiers from the first battalion to ensure the combat effectiveness of the first battalion as much as possible. The same is true for the other main battalions.
Although the number of soldiers drawn has been reduced by more than 10%, and the soldiers have not been together for a long time, they have fought side by side together, which can be regarded as a life-and-death friendship. Such friendships are naturally different, so of course a farewell ceremony is held. Of course, it is not necessarily a good thing to add soldiers to other troops. The time travel warriors are basically serving as company-level officers, and the soldiers of this warrior can at least become squad leader. If they have served as squad leader, they may be promoted to platoon leader.
Another battalion has three soldiers joined the special forces, namely the former squad leader Mu Huaian, sniper Yang Rui, and machine gunner Wang Wenhao. Although Luo Yue decided to give up the examination and inspection of the special forces after weighing the pros and cons, and still left ordinary troops to show up, the special forces are still quite attractive to most soldiers traveling through the warriors. Moreover, not every soldier is like Luo Yue, aiming at the commander of the group army and the commander of the military region, and what is the Military Commission. For them, these positions are too far away from them, and the special forces are right in front of them.
The original squad leader Mu Huaian was also a soldier with excellent comprehensive qualities, and the sniper Yang Rui and machine gunner Wang Wenhao also had their own strengths and were eventually selected by the special forces. Although Luo Yue did not want them to leave the first battalion, everyone had their own ambitions, and Luo Yue could not force it, so he used this farewell ceremony to send off their departure together.
Since old soldiers were transferred, there were naturally new soldiers to join in. The first battalion also added a firepower enhancement company, including two machine gun platoons and one machine gun platoon. A total of 6 Maxim machine guns and 3 47mm Haqikas machine guns. In this way, the combat effectiveness of the entire battalion has been greatly improved, and the number of people in the entire battalion has also increased to nearly 60 people.
In addition, after a group of old soldiers were transferred from a total of 9 time travel soldiers, many positions of lower-level officers were freed. Some local soldiers with long-term qualifications or outstanding performance in recent battles were also given the opportunity to be promoted. Now, in the first battalion, there are only 20 people in the time travel war, including Luo Yue, among which 17 soldiers belonged to the original Luo Yue platoon, all of whom were company-level or above. The officers at the first platoon were all held by local soldiers, and there were 3 local soldiers entering the company to serve as clerk positions.
According to the organization of the People's Army, a command center is set up at the company level. The company command center is composed of company commander, deputy company commander, company instructor, company clerk, plus a 10-person company guard squad, and sometimes a company health department and kitchen squad.
Now the first battalion is also the only battalion in the People's Army that has no time travel soldiers as platoon-level officers, and local soldiers have entered the company headquarters. Of course, local soldiers entering the company headquarters are all intellectuals of this era. They can write and calculate, and after short-term study in night school, they can basically meet the requirements of the People's Army.
