Chapter 137 The situation takes a turn for the worse
Years of warlord wars and excessive taxation by various governments have made Hualin Academy look decayed and outdated. There are no students in the soon-to-be-abandoned academy. After the model camp moved in, it was slightly repaired and cleaned, and then it had a completely new look, with exquisite layout and elegant and smooth cornices.
It is an antique-style building, and you can vaguely see the scale and good intentions of the original construction.
This Hualin Academy, located on the south bank of the Lian River, only 1.5 kilometers away from the county seat, is not the Hualin Academy that has been as famous as Yuelu Academy, Bailudong Academy, and Ehu Academy in history and has been famous in China for hundreds of years. It is not a real academy.
Hualin Mountain is located 25 kilometers southwest of the county. Unfortunately, many of the scenic spots in Hualin Mountain have become ruins. The carved beams and painted buildings have long been turned into ruins. The Hualin Academy in the south of the city is just a memorial academy. However, it is used as a temporary military camp.
It is also spacious and practical, with convenient transportation.
Behind the spacious double-eaves main hall of the academy is an exquisite garden covering an area of about two acres. It has towering trees, rockeries, fish ponds, flower paths and stone railings. It also shows the elegance and elegance of the southern garden style. On both sides of the yard are two rows of neat and spacious gardens.
The high-ridged tile-roofed house was originally a sleeping place for teachers and students. Now it has become a temporary barracks for each company and platoon directly under the model camp. An Yi's dormitory is the first one on the east side next to the main building.
The morning sun shone through the wide window. An Yi, who had been sleeping intermittently for two nights and one day, was able to sit up after drinking the meat porridge. He took the skill competition schedule handed over by Yin Jinan and looked at it carefully:
"Very good, in this way, we can complete the preliminary and second round matches today morning and afternoon, and the third round match tomorrow will be much smaller, which will facilitate the organization and referee work... Is the space at the entrance of the main hall of the academy big enough?
"
"That's enough. The four new engineer companies spent a day leveling and cleaning the area, which is as big as three basketball courts. The final fighting event is scheduled to be held tomorrow afternoon. Unfortunately, Cai Guangqing and the 82 members of the second company
The brothers were unable to attend. In an hour they would be transferred to the Fourth Regiment in the north of the city. Hundreds of old brothers were crying in the barracks in front of them. I didn’t dare to go there. I was so sad that I wanted to cry even if I said a few more words.
"Yin Jinan shook his head repeatedly.
An Yi let out a long sigh: "Our waist and legs are not strong enough, so we can only endure it... When our third company was first established, wasn't it divided into seventy brothers? Tell the brothers not to care, they are all in the same division.
, we will not see each other when we look up, and we will have to look after each other when fighting in the future. No matter where we go, we are still brothers, and this friendship of life and death will never change."
Yin Jinan nodded, and when he saw Huzi hurried in with a serious look on his face, he immediately knew something big had happened.
Huzi came to the bedside and sat down, and reported in a low voice: "I just went to the division headquarters to deliver documents, and the battle situation suddenly changed. The Nanchang City where General Cheng Qian's 19th Division and our First Division were stationed were attacked by the enemy.
More than 17,000 men of Deng Ruzhuo's troops on the Fengcheng front line stormed Nanchang from south to north. The enemy Lu Xiangting Division guarding De'an also moved south along the Nanxun Railway. Under the attack from the north and south, General Cheng Qian's 19th Division was almost completely wiped out.
General Cheng Qian cut off his long beard and took off his uniform amid the enemy's shouts of "Capture Cheng Dabeard alive". Under the protection of two guards, he fled to our Fengxincheng Division Headquarters early this morning.
The commander of the special agent company, Qiao Shijie, revealed to me privately that after our 1st Division occupied Nanchang, it did not follow the standard of vigilance like the 19th Division. Deputy Commander Wang stayed up all night in the brothel in Huaxiang, which resulted in the sudden arrival of enemy troops. The generals of the 1st Division were leaderless.
Faced with the superior enemy forces, they rushed to join the battle and were instantly defeated. There is still no news about Deputy Commander Wang and Party Representative Director Miao. Repeated contacts from the division headquarters radio station confirmed that the remnants of our 1st Division's retreat have been regrouped in Gao'an.
Part of them arrived in Jing'an one after another. Each of the three main regiments of our division sent one part to move the defense line forward in three directions: east, south and north to ensure the safety of Fengxin City."
An Yi was shocked: "Oh my God! How could Deputy Commander Wang be so ridiculous? General Cheng Qian cut off his beard and abandoned his robes, which is comparable to Cao Cao during the Three Kingdoms... Beard, wasn't De'an's enemy Lu Xiangting Division restrained by the Seventh Army?
Why did he suddenly go south to attack Nanchang with Deng Ruzhuo's army?"
"I also found it strange. I asked Deputy Commander Jiang carefully and found out that because General Li Zongren was unable to contact the Sixth Army, he sent four reconnaissance teams from Yangxin to search for several days without success. He was afraid that the right wing would be attacked by the enemy and did not dare to go alone.
In-depth, the original attack target Jiujiang was abandoned midway, and the marching direction was decisively changed, from Yangxin to the south through Yangchang Mountain in an attempt to get closer to the Sixth Army. Little did they know that the Sixth Army had given up Xiushui, leaving only the 17th Division to garrison Jing'an and the 18th Division.
The division was stationed in Anyi. General Cheng Qian led the 19th Division and the First Division of our army to take advantage of the opportunity to occupy Nanchang. Since the Seventh Army could not be contacted by radio, it is estimated that the Seventh Army has not yet learned about the gain and loss of Nanchang. The latest situation shows that,
Twenty thousand officers and soldiers of Sun Chuanfang's powerful Xie Hongxun division have occupied the Wuning front line, and it seems that the main force of the Seventh Army has been discovered..." Huzi explained in detail.
An Yi was so anxious that his pale face turned red: "Where is Xiushui? How can we give up Xiushui? Doesn't this put our second division under the enemy's attack from the front and back? I'll fuck his grandma's sixth
Army, is there anyone who fights like this? I’m so angry!”
Huzi quickly explained: "What are you in a hurry for? You didn't hear me finish. Our army's newly-recruited He Yaozu Division of the Hunan Army was reorganized into an independent second division. Three days ago, it left Xianning via Tongcheng and rushed for reinforcements. It stationed in Xiushui yesterday.
There are no worries about our army's rear and flanks for the time being. In addition, the principal arrived in the west of Yichun yesterday and will arrive in Gao'an in the near future to take command on the front line in person."
An Yi and Yin Jinan breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and Hu Hu continued: "The division headquarters has not yet received an action order from the headquarters. It is estimated that the headquarters understands that our division is in urgent need of rest and recuperation after the fierce battle in Fengxin. The division headquarters ordered our battalion to strengthen vigilance and obey orders at any time. Now.
I just want to hear your opinions on whether our camp has made any preparations or adjustments."
"Jinan, what do you mean?" An Yi asked.
Yin Jinan replied: "In this case, we must seize the time to complete the selection and organizational adjustment. At present, the five companies, six companies, machine gun companies, and artillery companies that were separated and reorganized from the original first company have been formed. The seventy officers and soldiers of the communications company have been initially formed.
, each company began intensive training yesterday, and the officers and soldiers of the four new engineering companies have basically completed the organization. Only the appointment of company-level officers has not been completed. Within two days, each company of the entire battalion will be able to conduct the first training according to the original plan.
Stage training. You have to take good care of your injuries these days. Stop scaring our brothers. Don’t hide your injuries in the future, otherwise don’t blame me for being rude to you!"
"As you command!"
An Yi laughed: "Huzi, tell Xia Jian that his sixty-five brothers do not need to participate in these two days of trials. The reconnaissance range must be expanded to a radius of twenty kilometers. The current situation is dangerous and changing rapidly. We are facing
The enemy is no worse than the revolutionary army. The defeat of the 19th Division and the 1st Division in Nanchang is the best proof. It also allowed me to see the enemy's excellent concealment and suddenness, and mobilized 30,000 troops to carry out a large-scale north-south attack.
Our Sixth Army and our First Division were unaware of the pincer attack, which is enough to see that the enemy has strong combat effectiveness and good military literacy, so we must not be careless!"
Huzi nodded: "I'll do it right away."
"I have to go see the brothers who are leaving... If you can't sleep, think more about the promotion and deployment of company and platoon-level officers. This matter cannot be delayed. It must be completed within three days, otherwise it will affect the next step.
Work." Yin Jinan finished speaking and left quickly.
After calming down, An Yi felt bursts of pain from the abdominal wound and left shoulder wound. Dong Yazi cleverly folded a quilt quickly and carefully placed it behind An Yi.
Gu Laoer came in quietly, took a look at An Yi's complexion, smiled and joked, and then reported: "Boss, Captain Cai came here with that Li Xiaolong to ask for an audience. The two of them have been waiting in the main hall for more than half an hour. I just saw
You were in a meeting and didn't let them in."
"welcome!"
An Yi put together the personnel review report he had just opened and put it on the bedside, and asked Dong Yazi to bring him a few cups of hot tea.
"Report: Second Company Commander Cai Guangqing and Clerk Li Xiaolong are asking to see you and ask for instructions from the Battalion Commander!"
Cai Guangqing stood at attention and saluted as he walked in. Just like before, he didn't look like someone who was about to leave this group. Li Xiaolong stood behind Cai Guangqing with a complicated expression, his body straight, and his salute was powerful and standard.
An Yi felt sad, put on a smile and said loudly: "Come in and sit down! Guangqing, you are the only person in our model camp who has not been scolded by me. Sometimes I really want to scold you, but I can't find the one to scold you."
The reason is enough to show how good your work is."
Cai Guangqing's eyes turned red: "Batalion Commander..."
"Sit down and have a sip of hot tea before we talk."
An Yi looked at Li Xiaolong: "I wanted to see you the night before yesterday, but I also fell down. How is your recovery?"
Li Xiaolong stood at attention again: "Report to the battalion commander that my subordinate has basically recovered. Thank you to the battalion commander for allowing the medical officer Colonel Ma to diagnose and treat his subordinate."
An Yi motioned for him to sit down: "Let's have a cup of tea, you're welcome... Li Xiaolong, I apologize to you today. It's because I didn't give you a fair chance of competition and a good environment. Please forgive me! This person is his mother."
It’s so cheap, but you don’t know how valuable and cherished it is until you lose it.”
Li Xiaolong's hand holding the tea cup trembled slightly: "Batalion Commander, I didn't expect you to apologize to me. Actually, you don't have to. You are the best military commander I have ever seen. Although I didn't get your guidance, I
In the model camp, I learned a lot from every officer and soldier, a lot of precious things, and these things have your shadow in them, such as the brothers' self-confidence, self-esteem, friendship and unity, diligence and advancement, and even arrogance, which are different from others.
The troops are all different. I didn’t understand it at first, but now I understand.”
An Yi stared at Li Xiaolong's reddish eyes in surprise, feeling a touch of loss and guilt in his heart: "You're welcome, you are actually very good, but the time we met was too short. From Xianning to here we were either busy with construction or fighting, which is rare.
Have a few days of rest. You are not relaxed either. I heard that you practice your skills and marksmanship day and night, get along better and better with your brothers, and make rapid progress in all aspects.
By the way, I have to tell you something. After the meeting at noon the day before yesterday, Guangqing asked me for you, Li Xiaolong, to serve as the secretary of the second company. At first, I disagreed but Guangqing convinced me. At that time, I had no idea that the division headquarters would take all of you.
When I was transferred to the Fourth Regiment, I originally planned to split up your Second Company, and move up the ranks from the company commander to the brothers down to the newly formed companies to serve as the backbone and leading role, so that the new companies can form combat effectiveness as soon as possible.
At the division meeting, I was stunned when I heard the chief of staff announce the transfer decision. I was very excited. When I was excited, the two bullet holes in my stomach and lower back hurt terribly. I expressed my opinion through the breath I was holding in my chest.
, seeing that I couldn’t stand it any longer, I left the show early and fainted as soon as I walked out the door. In fact, I felt very uncomfortable. You may not know this, Li Xiaolong, but Guangqing knows that he knows the feelings between me and every old brother in Erlian.
.”
"Boss, stop talking..."
Cai Guangqing finally couldn't hold back his tears.
"Guangqing, what's the matter with you? Why are you acting like a girl? Aren't you just a few steps away? Are we going to see each other more often in the future? When we get there, put in some effort, and when you become the battalion commander, why don't you talk to me from time to time?
Are we sitting together for a meeting? Really..." An Yi pretended to be carefree, but in fact he was just as sad in his heart.
Cai Guangqing nodded, wiped away his tears and looked out the window.
An Yi sighed slightly: "Dong Yaozi, bring me the booklet you copied... Li Xiaolong, I don't have anything to give you before I leave, so I will give you this "Shooting Training Method" that I wrote myself.
To commemorate, the above contains the basic knowledge taught to me by my two shooting instructors, as well as some experiences I have summarized in practice. It is intended to be used as a trial teaching material within our battalion. It needs to be summarized and enriched in actual combat. Your culture
If you have a solid foundation, you will probably learn quickly.
I have an experience that I didn’t write above, but I’ll tell you now: every excellent shooter is made from boxes of bullets. It’s amazing to have one sharpshooter among 10,000 excellent shooters, because sharpshooters are only one in a million.
Genius. Even though I'm good at shooting, strictly speaking I can only be considered an excellent shooter. Here! Take it."
Li Xiaolong excitedly took the pamphlet, his mouth squirmed for a long time, and then he whispered: "Batalion Commander, you said something wrong just now. You said that Captain Cai is the only person in the whole battalion who has not been scolded by you. No, and I too."
I have never been scolded by you... At first I was disgusted when I saw you scolding a certain brother, but later I realized that the person you scolded is lucky, because you regard him as your brother, and every person you scold
The brother who had scolded me turned away happily, which made me very envious. Although I don't like this rough way, I envy the true feelings contained in it. Your foul words sound harsh, but when you think about it carefully, they are very reasonable.
No one can learn from it. Battalion Commander, can you give your subordinates a parting message before leaving?"
An Yi laughed: "Li Xiaolong, do you believe in fortune telling?"
"I...I don't believe it. I believe that fate is in my own hands." Li Xiaolong smiled.
An Yi nodded: "I'll make a bet with you. I dare say that if you are still alive in twenty years, you will definitely be a general! Whether you believe it or not, the facts will prove everything. If my prediction comes true, don't forget to write it in your memoirs.
Write this paragraph inside."
Li Xiaolong nodded solemnly: "Okay, I remember..."
The sobbing calls of the brothers who were about to leave came from outside, breaking An Yi's balance and shattering his self-control.
The pale An Yi waved his hand and told Cai Guangqing and Li Xiaolong to leave. He shouted at Gu Laoer who hurriedly came in to report: "What are you doing outside? Shouting? I'll blow them away and tell them that we have arrived at the Fourth Regiment."
If they lose the spirit of the model camp, I will kill them alive!"
Gu Laoer looked at the tears on An Yi's face, nodded sadly, turned around quietly and left with his head down...
