After receiving the urgent order, more than a hundred officers at the regiment level and above from various military camps inside and outside Nanyang City immediately put down their jobs and set off, riding horses and running. Within half an hour, they all gathered in the spacious and solemn palace hall of the palace.
Zhu Shigui, who was sitting on the podium, glanced around and asked An Yi in a low voice: "Why hasn't Lao Shen arrived? It seems like he hasn't been seen in a few days."
An Yi replied in a low voice: "Old Shen came from the Wudang sect. After conquering Nanyang, I asked him to go back. Although he has just been promoted to major general, this time can be regarded as a return to his hometown in glory. He has been away from his sect and hometown for so many years. It is time to go back and have a look.
."
"Oh...I understand! Brother Xian is very considerate. Brother, I haven't been home for ten years. I have to go back and see when I can..." Zhu Shigui nodded with emotion.
An Yi said with a smile: "Brother Zhu, after this battle is over and the troops are sent to the southwest, how about I transfer your troops to garrison in Anshun? It's closer to home and it will be much more convenient to go back."
"Anshun?"
Zhu Shigui looked at An Yi in surprise. He suddenly understood something from An Yi's smiling expression and nodded slightly. He was so excited that he slapped An Yi on the thigh and shouted in Sichuan and Yunnan dialect: "What a fucking bastard, I am."
I’ve been waiting for this day for a long time!”
An Yi grimaced in pain, pushed Zhu Shigui away, and cursed in a low voice. The nearly two hundred brothers below only heard a crisp sound of "pop--" and saw the pain on An Yi's face. They were all frightened.
Gotta stop talking.
Only then did Zhu Shigui realize that he had lost his composure. He chuckled, stood up and pointed at the generals in the audience: "What are you looking at? Listen to my instructions - stand at attention - and sit down!"
There was a loud "crash" sound. More than a hundred generals straightened their chests and backs, and sat solemnly. No one dared to say a word.
…
More than 60 Chinese and foreign journalists, escorted by a company of officers and soldiers of the Central Guard Force, boarded an armed transport ship of the Yangtze River Fleet and sailed up the river from Nanjing to Wuhan. They stayed one night and then turned to the Han River the next morning to go to Xiangfan for interviews.
This war correspondent group, which was repeatedly applied by journalists from five European and American countries and organized by the Nanjing Central Party Committee, received great attention from Chiang Kai-shek and the president of the Fifth Academy. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs specially sent two division chiefs to accompany it. Chen, the former secretary-general of the Central Party Committee before departure,
Lifu, Chief of Staff Zhu Peide who stayed in Nanjing, Chiang Kai-shek who was on the Guide front line, and others personally called An Yi and asked An Yi and the officers and soldiers of the Fifth Army to receive him warmly, handle it properly, and ensure the successful completion of the three political tasks.
The three political tasks are: to safeguard the justice of the revolutionary war; to safeguard the image of the party-state and the revolutionary army; and to promote the central government's outstanding deeds of going all out in disaster relief and keeping the people in mind.
The Yichang camp, which was ordered to fully assist in receiving the delegation for the interview, also sent the deputy director of the Political Training Department and other officials to Nanyang to discuss specific reception and publicity matters with the Political Department of the Fifth Army Corps, requiring them to put up slogans and banners, and organize surprise education for the public.
Respond to interviews from Chinese and foreign reporters.
The director of the political department of the Corps, Major General Zhanzhi, was well aware of An Yi's temper and politely rejected the request of the officials of the Yichang Administrative Camp Political Training Office, saying that in addition to increasing publicity, everything must be allowed to take its course. The deputy director of the political training office could not ask for anything more.
, hurriedly asked to see the legion commander An Yi. For the sake of Zeng Xuanqing, An Yi received this doctor of political science who had returned from studying in France. He became annoyed during the middle of what he said, rejected his request, and ordered him to leave the war zone and return immediately.
Yichang.
The deputy director did not expect that An Yi, who had always been good-tempered, would issue an eviction order. He was so frightened that he left in despair. He went to Zhan Dao to ask what was going on? Zhan Dao helplessly told him: The commander can tolerate other things, but he cannot tolerate it.
Several promising officers in the army were deceived and deceived. It was because of this taboo that they were dismissed from their posts and investigated, and finally kicked out of the Fifth Army Corps.
The severely damaged Northwest Army was unwilling to fail and hurriedly mobilized troops to Luoyang, Songxian and Shangnan. The temporary second division stationed in Luoyang was defeated by An Yi in the Battle of Nanyang. Seeing the arrival of the army, he immediately followed the commander-in-chief of the Northwest Army.
The combat guiding ideology of "active defense and waiting for opportunities to annihilate the enemy" issued by the Ministry of Cavalry was
Inspired by General Zheng Dazhang's outstanding night attack on Guide Airport, he assembled eight hundred cavalry and quietly dispatched, detouring through the Shiren Mountain wilderness road in the southeast of Song County, and suddenly attacked the 13th Division of the 44th Division stationed in Zhenping with an indomitable momentum.
0 brigade, trying to take down the 130 brigade headquarters in one fell swoop with a thunderbolt method.
At dawn, eight hundred elite cavalry broke through two sparse sentries and rushed into the center of the town. The leading cavalry suddenly fell to the ground one after another, and the roads in the town were covered with one-meter-high thick wooden piles driven deep into the ground.
Thick wooden poles are tied between the wooden stakes.
Tripping the horse rope, the leading cavalry commander exclaimed that he had fallen into a trap and shouted to retreat, but before he could say the word "retreat", a bullet blew out his head. Bright torches suddenly lit up and flew towards the horses, and the rooftops on both sides of the street
Go up, machine guns were suddenly set up on the courtyard wall, accurate
Rifle bullets flew like dense rain from all directions. In the blink of an eye, more than a hundred cavalry fell off their horses. The frightened horses neighed and jumped wildly. The cavalry who fell to the ground had no time to get up, and were trampled by heavy horse hooves and howled violently.
The cavalrymen were frightened, and some raised their voices lightly.
Machine guns and flower machine guns fired wildly in all directions. Some turned their horses and ran for their lives, but in the end no one could escape. Before they could escape from the Zhenbei Bridge, where five fences were suddenly erected with waist-thick giant logs, more than four hundred people were killed.
The brothers from the special forces team who had been in place for a long time were shot down.
In just twenty minutes, the 800 elite cavalrymen of the Northwest Army suffered all casualties. Eleven people of the 130th Brigade were killed and more than 30 wounded. More than 1,300 machine guns, flower machine guns and shell guns seized in this battle were used by the brigade.
The eldest king, Xulun, laughed and accepted it. More than 600 powerful horses were gathered together, and more than 150 dead and injured horses were all given to the townspeople who had not eaten meat for a year, which attracted a warm cheer.
Wang Xulun, who had just been promoted to major general and brigade commander, did not forget the military regulations and sent 500 war horses to the Wollongong Division in the west of the city to honor Gu Changfeng, the division seat. Gu Changfeng picked out 30 good horses and sent them to the general headquarters as a gift.
A group of brothers, and the rest belong to their own special forces brigade.
An Yi, the commander of the legion, had no objection to this. Instead, he rewarded Wang Xulun 50,000 oceans and 50 boxes of cigarettes for the 130th Brigade. He assigned the 130th Brigade 12 promotion spots to school officers and praised the 130th Brigade for its cleverness.
A good fight, calling on all divisions of the legion to fight against one
The 30th Brigade studied. The officers of the Legion Political Training Department briefly summarized this achievement and the heavy reward from Commander An Yi, and brought it to the New 14th Division, the New 16th Division, and the New 17th Division to publicize it widely, and 30,000 people listened to it.
The officers and soldiers who came to surrender were dumbfounded, but also envious.
The three new divisions of the New 14th Division, the New 16th Division, and the New 17th Division are almost all veterans who surrendered to the Northwest Army. Zhao Dongquan was promoted to Major General of the New 14th Division under An Yi's recommendation, and was promoted from Jiangxi Provincial Security Commander
The first one transferred from the Ministry
Yang Lie, commander of the 4th Brigade, was promoted to Major General Commander of the New 16th Division. Chief of Staff Yang Libang, who was transferred from the Central Jiangxi Security Command, was promoted to Major General Commander of the New 17th Division. The three divisions were stationed at King Camp in the east of the city, the Holy Temple of Traditional Chinese Medicine in the city, and the South of the city.
Guozhuang Military Camp.
From the first day they arrived, the 38,000 brothers in the three new divisions were notified by the legion headquarters that they did not have to participate in any battles within a month. Later, the officers and soldiers discovered that they did not have the luxury of Anjiajun headquarters for a week in a row.
Extreme shooting training, no high-intensity cross-country training, no complex tactical training, all closed the camp door and started a new basic training:
In the morning, there was a drill, and after breakfast, there was a meeting to recall the hardships and sweet memories, and to compare the differences between the new army and the old army. The officers and soldiers were asked to take turns to talk about their feelings, followed by strict and boring queue training; the queue training continued after lunch.
, the division-wide training competition will be held starting at four o'clock in the afternoon. The best-performing company of each regiment will be pulled out for a queue competition. After the competition is completed, rewards will be given on the spot. After the rewards are completed, they will learn to sing for an hour and then have dinner. After dinner, they will learn drills and recite military regulations.
military discipline.
Every three days, all the officers and soldiers of the division gather together to listen to the instructions of the generals at the corps headquarters. They go out every three days to build houses for the people near the station, carry water, clean the streets, organize public roads, dig pits and build huts, and deliver food to orphans, widows and children.
Youyan, after coming back in the evening, each company held a meeting respectively. Everyone had to talk about their own experiences and experiences. Then they studied An Yi’s speech, learned the spirit of the model camp, and discussed the differences between their unit and the real revolutionary army.
What's the difference?
After the company meeting in the evening, the company commander and instructor will send the minutes of the meeting to the political training office of the division headquarters to receive inquiries and guidance from the political training minister, correct shortcomings and mistakes, and then introduce new education methods and new instructions.
Bring the spirit back to the company and convey it carefully.
Most of the company commanders of each division are outstanding grassroots officers transferred from the Central Army Officer School and the Xiangxi Non-commissioned Officer Training Base. A small number are outstanding leaders recommended by the soldiers. The division headquarters treats all officers equally, and distributes military pay and supplies.
All of them are at the highest level of the Central Military Forces, which makes the soldiers whose self-esteem is awakened and cared for are indescribably grateful, and they spare no effort in training and learning.
An Yi and his brothers looked very relaxed, but in fact no one was idle. Since the Nanchang base successfully deciphered the radio communication codes of the Northwest Army, Gui Army and other units, a large amount of intelligence poured into An Yi's army headquarters. Liu
The seventy-two brothers in Qing's intelligence department were working overload, and a stream of summarized intelligence was sent to An Yi's hands, causing the chief officers at all levels of the operations department, political training department, and military supplies department to be on standby at any time.
After half a month, Liu Qing's eyes were sunken, and subtle wrinkles appeared on his brows. Even Zhang Yang, the new colonel director of the Military Supplies Department, who had participated in three special operations in a row and received an exceptional promotion, his thighs were almost thin.
After riding a horse for a while, I developed blood blisters on my inner thighs. I have not dared to go to Tianyun Tower to pick up girls for four days.
The press group that came by car from Xiangfan had already arrived in Dengzhou in the south. Zhan went to the palace to report but did not see An Yi. After asking where An Yi was, he hurried to the Nanguan military camp. The scene on the playground shocked Zhan.
To my great surprise, not only the officers of the political training section of each division were there, but also the regiments of each division
The deputy and battalion deputy instructors also gathered here, lining up neatly to look up at the high platform and learning to sing a new song with An Yi. Headquarters Chief of Staff Zhao Rui, Chief of Operations Li Fuqiang and dozens of other generals also stood neatly.
In the middle of the team, people stretched their necks and raised their voices to roar along with An Yi.
Zhan was very interested. He quietly walked behind the high platform and asked Lin Yaodong, the captain of the guard, in a low voice: "Xiaojiu, what are you doing? Are you interested in the commander?"
"Don't mention it. I've been standing here for three hours. The commander is sweating while teaching me. I think I almost drank five bowls of dust. With only a dozen simple lyrics, these guys can't even sing it now.
To satisfy the commander. If only the parrot were here, what about grandson?
He can sing a song after listening to it twice, he is also very fast in teaching people, and his understanding is super strong. With him as the commander, there is no need to work so hard? I heard that grandson was injured when he fought in the independent division. I wonder if he is recovering now.
What's going on? Is it hurting my life?" Lin Yaodong smiled bitterly and shook his head.
When Zhan smiled, he heard An Yi's slightly hoarse voice yelling: "Everyone, let's do it again for the last time. If you are out of tune again, I won't teach you anymore. I will punish you by taking off your shirt and running around this military camp ten times."
! You can’t even learn such a simple tune. You all know the military rules and regulations by heart. There’s no reason why you can’t sing them. Please be honest and don’t let your thoughts wander..."
Everyone was so frightened that they stretched their necks and looked around. Many female soldiers passing by the field hospital were covering their mouths and snickering. Thousands of brothers standing guard and resting all watched from a distance, with smiles of gloating on their faces.
I want to be true in public
It was humiliating to be stripped naked and punished with ten laps. It didn't matter if the brothers joked about it. I was afraid that I would not feel comfortable meeting other friendly troops in the Central Army series in the future. They no longer dared to neglect, they all cheered up and looked at each other nervously.
An Yi on the high platform.
An Yi threw the drained bowl to the guards behind him, wiped his mouth, and raised his hands: "Every revolutionary soldier must remember - prepare, sing!"
"Every revolutionary soldier must keep in mind the three major disciplines and eight points of attention. The first is to obey the command in all actions and to work in unison to win the victory; the second is not to bully the common people, to protect the home and country is to protect the people; the third is to return all seizures to the public
, strive to reduce the burden on the people..."
The singing was neat and loud, with great momentum. Thousands of officers, soldiers and nurses who were watching the joke gradually put away their smiles and took it seriously. Hundreds of generals and colonels who sang it in full for the first time were also very happy and satisfied.
An Yi looked around and ordered loudly: "All officers and soldiers in the camp listen to the order. You have watched the excitement for a few hours and you will probably know how to sing. Let's do it again. Everyone must sing. We must sing every day. Let's sing for the first time.
All the brothers of the Fifth Army Corps can sing and must do what is sung in this song to become a true revolutionary soldier and a true soldier of the people! Attention, everyone, stand up for me and stand at attention... Listen to my command: Revolutionary soldier
Everyone must remember—prepare—sing!”
The singing sounded again. It seemed quite messy at the beginning. Gradually, the singing became more orderly and louder. The officers and soldiers all raised their heads and sang extremely proudly. The thunderous singing came from the Nanguan Military Camp.
