It was extremely cold and desolate in the beautifully decorated government office lobby. More than a dozen famous teachers and generals from various departments looked heavy and silent. They even walked like child brides who were afraid of their mother-in-law. They moved cautiously and aggrievedly, not daring to
Make some noise.
A huge square table is spliced to the east of the lobby. A thick yellow-green military blanket is laid on the table. A series of damp reports that smell of blood are placed in a mess. The ceramic ashtray on the table is filled with ash and cigarette butts.
A half-burnt cigarette stood on the edge of the ashtray, with wisps of green smoke quietly leaking out.
Liu Zhi was the only one sitting at the table, sitting alone on the Taishi chair. His bloodshot eyes were slightly swollen, and his absent-minded eyes stared blankly at the cypresses outside the open wooden lattice-carved window. The rising sun lit up the pieces on the tree crown.
The snow light reflected on his sad and depressed face. The messy short stubble on his upper lip, chin and cheeks seemed to have grown wildly overnight, silently covering the clear lines of his two tightly closed lips.
From the emergency meeting at 8 o'clock in the morning to now, Liu Zhi, who has been awake for two days and two nights, has been sitting here quietly. Except for smoking one cigarette after another, he has maintained this posture with a gloomy livid face.
His red eyes were extremely scary, and many of his subordinates followed him
Having never seen Liu Zhi, who was always so light-hearted and calm, no one dared to disturb him. The scheming adjutants and staff quietly moved out a table and blocked it at the middle door, blocking all personnel from entering.
Handle urgent reports and heavy affairs of all divisions.
An Yi, who had put on a clean military uniform, finally entered the government office. Ying Rongguang and Colonel Chen, who were sitting at the middle gate, and the military director Lao Kuang and others saw An Yi and immediately stood up and hurriedly greeted him as if they had seen him.
Like a savior.
Ying Rongguang, who looked melancholy, whispered to the puzzled An Yi: "Xiao Yi, why are you here? I am discussing with Lao Chen to send someone to call you! Go in and persuade the master to let him eat.
Let’s go to bed early, otherwise it will all be a mess.”
"I just went to visit the Chief of Staff and came here. What's going on?"
An Yi stuck his head out and looked at the lobby inside. He was quite surprised to see that it was quiet inside: "Where is the master's seat?"
"Sitting stupidly under the window on the east side of the lobby, the cold wind is blowing and we are not allowed to close the window. I have never seen the master so sad and sad. Come in quickly. You are the only one in the whole division who can persuade him!" Staff Officer Chen
Sigh softly.
An Yi nodded: "Has the principal called back?"
Ying Rongguang and Staff Officer Chen shook their heads at the same time, their faces full of the guilty and depressed look that a defeated general should have.
An Yi nodded slightly, comforted the two of them in a low voice, then walked into the courtyard and went straight to the lobby. He raised his feet and entered the door amidst the respectful and expectant salutes of the two guard platoon leaders. He glanced at the east side and walked straight over.
As he walked, he laughed loudly to the young staff officer standing in front of the big pillar:
"Why are you so silly? Go and make me a cup of tea... Orderly, didn't you see that the ashtray on the table is full? Are you asleep?"
Everyone in the hall was relieved and quickly started working. An Yi walked up to Liu Zhi who was turning his head and saluted with his legs crossed: "Reporting to the teacher, An Yi, the leader of the independent regiment, has urgent matters to report. Please forgive me for disturbing the peace of the teacher!"
Liu Zhi smiled bitterly, pointed to the stool next to him and motioned for An Yi to sit down: "Xiao Yi, have your wounded soldiers been settled?"
"Back at the commander's seat, we have settled in. My subordinates saw that all the regiments in the city were busy. A handful of irrational officers and soldiers lost control and started shouting along the street, beating people and destroying things. In desperation, my subordinates had no choice but to take the initiative to impose martial law in the city, and put three of them under control.
More than ten leaders were disarmed and imprisoned. They were ordered to reflect on themselves and asked the master to forgive their sins of overstepping their authority!" An Yi reported calmly.
Liu Zhi suddenly stood up, his face flushed red, and he slammed his palm on the table angrily, making a huge noise that made the hall buzz: "Where is the glory of Yingrong——"
"arrive--"
Intelligence staff officer and military judge Ying Rongguang rushed over.
"Go and kill all those who leave the camp to cause trouble!" Liu Zhi's eyes widened and he looked ferocious.
"slow!"
An Yi stood up in shock and said: "Master, please calm down! The officers and soldiers causing trouble were just venting their anger out of sorrow. My subordinates have calmed down the chaos and the order in the city has been restored. All we need to do is to confine the leader in accordance with the law and wait for his emotions."
Stabilize it and then order it to do it
It only takes a deep self-examination. If the punishment is severe, the subordinates are afraid that it will damage the morale and affect the negative impact. I urge you to be noble and let go of the dozens of brothers whose heads were blown up by the shells. Many of them are from our Huangpu Three and Four.
My comrade!"
Liu Zhi exhaled heavily and sat down slumped. An Yi took the hot tea from the orderly and handed it to Liu Zhi with both hands: "Master, please moisten your throat first. I have a suggestion and please correct me. If it is
It’s feasible, I’ll do it immediately.”
Seeing Liu Zhi nodding feebly, An Yi quickly stepped forward and whispered in Liu Zhi's ear.
The more Liu Zhi listened, the more energetic he became. He put down his tea cup and slowly straightened his back. His depressed eyes gradually regained their vitality. He looked at An Yi gratefully and nodded heavily.
An Yi returned to his seat, waved to the communications staff officer, and when he came over, he immediately whispered in a pleasant voice: "Old Liu, send a telegram to the principal for me."
Staff Liu was stunned for a moment, but then he understood what An Yi meant. He quickly turned around to get the text of the call and wrote, standing opposite An Yi. An Yi looked at the ceiling to clear his thoughts, and tapped the table with his slender fingers of his left hand rhythmically:
"Well, just copy it word for word as I said and send it out: Principal, the officers at all levels of the Second Division were so busy with their clothes that they forgot about food and sleep. They went deep into the battlefield and the barracks of each department to visit their subordinates in depth to boost their morale. Students
An Yi was ordered to take turns, and all the soldiers in the division were properly settled. The city of Quzhou was in good order, and the people were eating pots and pans of food with the same affection as fish and water. After the helpless fierce battle, they were scarred and in short supply of medicines. The broken-winged soldiers' steel teeth were all broken and they groaned without shame.
The entire division was filled with pain and anger, and the chief officers at all levels regretted and reflected, and vowed to turn grief into strength. The independent reconnaissance team responsible for city defense took turns to conduct reconnaissance day and night, and went deep behind enemy lines to prepare for rainy days. Students have
I feel extremely guilty for failing the expectations of the public. Faced with the dilemma, I can only shamelessly ask the principal to give some military medicines to meet the urgent needs. I am ashamed and sincere and fear that my words will not express my feelings. I hope that my teacher will forgive me! An unworthy student, model camp An Yi kowtows."
"Just send it like this?" Staff Officer Liu looked at An Yi in surprise, feeling deeply uneasy about such an unstandardized and unique message.
An Yi smiled and said: "Just send it like this. Except for the header you are used to, you can't add or subtract a word!"
"As you command!"
Staff Officer Liu crossed his legs in greeting and hurried to the confidential room at the back.
An Yi turned to Liu Zhi, who had regained his former dignity, and regardless of Liu Zhi's opinion of his message, he cheerfully reported on the situation of his independent regiment, telling Liu Zhi that his teaching team wore red armbands to patrol the city early in the morning.
, maintain order, two battalions and three
The company has begun clearing away the remaining snow in the city to promote peace of mind. The guard company has taken over the defense of Pumice Ferry in the north. Instructor Captain Qu Muchen and Second Battalion Commander Ye Cheng are organizing symposiums with gentlemen and celebrities in the city. Most of the northern and southern vegetable markets and shops in the city have resumed business.
Liu Zhi, who was in a state of distress, felt deeply comforted after hearing An Yi's report. He praised An Yi's department's achievements and said that he would report it as soon as possible after sorting it out.
An Yi took the opportunity to raise the matter of recruiting troops and suggested that Liu Zhi should also set up a fixed recruitment office for his Second Division in the name of the First Army. It would be best to set it up in Old Nanchang, which is connected to all directions, because in Jiangxi Province, the Second Division
The division and model camp have an excellent reputation, are well-known, and are deeply respected and supported by the people of Jiangxi. Moreover, the old Nanchang County seat is right next to the commander-in-chief's camp in Nanchang, so it is cheap but not at a disadvantage.
Liu Zhi, who was from Jiangxi Province, was troubled by the problem of recruiting soldiers. When he heard An Yi's suggestion, he immediately agreed with a wave of his hand, loudly ordered the clerk to draft an application report, and ordered the An Yi Independent Regiment to be fully responsible for the preparation and personnel dispatch of the recruitment office.
The division headquarters provides all application documents and formalities for submission. All preparation funds and personnel salaries are submitted to the division headquarters for record on the independent regiment list and paid in full.
When the two of them were talking, Lieutenant Colonel Liu, the communications staff officer, rushed to the side with a happy face: "Teacher, the principal has called back!"
Liu Zhi immediately stood up, took the message with both hands, read it carefully over and over again, and slowly sat down with moist eyes:
"The principal is so generous! Not only did he not scold him, but he taught him a lot of comfort and encouragement... Xiaoyi, good job! Here, this is specially sent to you by the principal. It is estimated that Yan Lisan (serious) and Chen Cixiu (Chen Cheng) have already
I telegraphed the progress of the war to the principal, who is very satisfied with you and your independent regiment!"
An Yi saw Liu Zhi, who was extremely worried that he would be replaced, become so excited. He pretended not to know, took the message with a smile and read it carefully. He saw the words "mainstay", "very comforted", "missing" and "guard against arrogance" in the text.
Words such as "Beware of impatience" made An Yi feel shocked and proud, knowing that it must be for him.
Two teachers, Chen Cheng and Jian Jian, who were deeply grateful, reported the outstanding performance of their independent group to the principal. What made An Yi most happy was that the principal, who was both kind and powerful, said at the end of the message that the students designated for the "model camp"
A batch of supplementary supplies is already on the way, and An Yi knows that there is definitely something good in it.
Then reading the telegram again, An Yi suddenly realized from the lines of Principal Jiang's seemingly affectionate and caring words that he realized the principal's euphemistic true meaning, that is, don't expect any meritorious service or awards this time. Under such a terrible defeat, the independent group
That little bit of achievement really cannot be brought to the table.
An Yi thought about it carefully and immediately understood. From the Eastern Expedition to the present, he has never seen any of the defeated troops receive promotion awards. For the upper level, everything needs to be considered overall. How can such a defeat be covered up if it can be covered up?
Are you asking for trouble by spreading the word? Fortunately, the Independent Group obtained the special supplies from the principal. It had no merit, but the principal who loved his talents gave himself a benefit, which just fulfilled his desire to make a fortune without being envied by others.
An Yi, who was feeling complicated, had a look of emotion on his face. After thanking the principal, he respectfully asked Liu Zhi for instructions on his next task.
Liu Zhi said with satisfaction that An Yi's current measures were very good, and he only needed to continue to shoulder the task of city defense and maintain order.
An Yi repeatedly promised to strike while the iron was hot, and it only took fifteen minutes to obtain the recruitment office application document signed by Liu Zhi. Liu Zhi, who was steady and thoughtful, also specifically stamped the national certificate held by him on the second approval column.
Seal No. 3 of the First Army of the Revolutionary Army.
The "Nanchang Recruitment Office of the First Army of the National Revolutionary Army", which played an important role in promoting the future development and growth of An Yi, was born. The ordinary recruit recruitment office also gradually rose from the initial regiment-level unit to the military-level unit.
A sign was derived from "National Revolutionary Army First Army Recruiting Office", "National Revolutionary Army First Army Recruiting Office", "National Revolutionary Army First Army Recruiting Office"
"Revolutionary Army Ordnance Administration Training Base" and "National Revolutionary Army Nanchang Non-commissioned Officer School", and promoted the establishment of the National Revolutionary Army's only special forces professional training base - located at the southern foot of Xiaoyao Mountain where the Wanshou Palace in Xishan, the Taoist holy land, is located.
The secret base is known to the outside world as the "Xishan Non-commissioned Officer Training Base".
