The father of the sword is Kong Jie

Chapter 467
…………

After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the Red Army was incorporated into the combat sequence of the National Revolutionary Army and participated in the Anti-Japanese War.

Due to the different actual conditions, the theaters and bases are relatively scattered, and it is not convenient to continue to issue uniform meritorious service medals.

Therefore, under this special form, all military regions and troops combined their own actual conditions to reward individuals and groups with outstanding performance in battle.

After the victory of this anti-sweep, it will be carried out in this mode.

Niukou Village.

Independence Corps.

Shortly after the brigade commander and political commissar held a commendation meeting for each regiment, news came from the headquarters.

In this anti-sweeping victory, all regiments worked together and fought the enemy bravely, especially the combat exploits of the independent regiment, which was the most remarkable. After deliberation and decision by the headquarters, Comrade Kong Jie, the head of the independent regiment, recorded a personal meritorious service.

All combat soldiers of the independent regiment will be recorded with collective military merit once.

In addition, the brigade headquarters also awarded outstanding combat teams such as the guard company, two artillery companies, commandos, and sniper platoons of the independent regiment, each with a special meritorious service, and specially formulated and issued corresponding medals and flags.

At the regiment headquarters, Kong Jie gave credit to the commanders in the regiment who were brave and outstanding in this battle, such as Wei Monk, commander of the guard company, Ye Min, deputy commander of the commando team, the commanders of the two artillery companies, and the platoon leader of the sniper platoon. Huang Baiyang, Sun Desheng, commander of the cavalry company, and so on.

Some fighters who performed outstandingly in the battle were not left behind, and they were awarded meritorious service or awards by the regiment headquarters, battalion headquarters, and companies respectively.

regiment.

Ye Min, the deputy captain of the commando, arrived and reported to Kong Jie: "Leader, you are looking for me!"

Kong Jie nodded, looked at Ye Min, and said: "This defensive battle in the base area can reverse the situation in one fell swoop and force the Japanese attacking troops to choose to retreat. The most important point is that your commando successfully destroyed the Japanese army in the rear Temporary Joint Command.

Just for this, the first victory of this battle belongs to your commando.

At the military meeting after the battle, I told everyone that in this battle, our independent regiment will reward each other for their meritorious deeds.

As the biggest hero of our independent group right now, tell me, what reward do you want? "

After Ye Min was stunned, he smirked and said: "Leader, this time we won the battle, and everyone has memorized all the merits that should be remembered, and this person has memorized the great merit once!

The commando also recorded collective merit once. You mean that there are other rewards besides credit. Is this a good thing? "

Kong Jie said solemnly: "I'm telling you something serious. Don't be so playful. In our independent group, we always put as much rice as we want in the pot."

"It is my responsibility as the regimental commander to make the best use of people and let every commander be in the position he is good at."

"For more than a year, you have led the commando to perform various difficult combat missions, and all of them have been successfully completed."

"You can be considered to be out of experience, and you can stand on your own. In addition to this military exploits, I mean you should go to a more suitable position and play a greater role."

Ye Min was stunned, and said with a wry smile: "Commander, you know, I haven't studied much, I don't have much knowledge, what do you mean?"

Kong Jie said: "The commando team is the most elite small combat unit of our independent regiment. To put it simply, it is the trump card of our independent regiment."

"But now with the development of our independent regiment, you can also see that the organizational system in the regiment is getting bigger and bigger, with more and more troops, and things are getting more and more complicated. Under such circumstances, there are only 30 people in the regiment. The commandos already seem a little insufficient."

"So, I am going to draw good seedlings from the whole regiment to form an assault company, and you will be the commander of the assault company for training.

To put it another way, the assault company gathers the elite fighters of our regiment, which is a bit like the reserve of the commando.

The outstanding fighters from the assault company can be further selected into the commando team. "

Seeing Ye Min lost in thought, Kong Jie continued:

"The scale of our independent regiment is not small now, and the base area is gradually expanding, developing and constructing day by day, and the scale may become larger and larger in the future."

"The expansion of the scale and the increase in the number of troops is a good thing at first glance, but what an army is most afraid of is the situation of flooding due to the rapid increase in the number of troops."

"Since last year, the headquarters has issued instructions on the development of the bases of various ministries, requiring better troops and simpler administration, so as to reduce the pressure on the bases to support local troops."

"The development of our independent group is better. It has an agricultural foundation and a commercial foundation. It will not rely too much on the local people and will not cause additional economic pressure."

"That's why the streamlined administration talks about reducing the army, strengthening military training, and improving the quality of the limited troops."

"Significantly reduce the size of the troops, our independent regiment does not need it."

"However, it is very necessary for us to strengthen the military training of the troops and improve the overall combat effectiveness of the existing troops."

"In the end, after thinking about it, I decided to establish a set of gradually increasing selection system, so that every soldier and every commander can make the best use of them."

"It's like the local selection system, from the common people to the militia, to the local guerrilla squad, to the district squad, county brigade, and then to our new barracks."

"Starting today, our independent regiment will also have a whole set of selection systems, from the recruit company to the main company of each battalion, to the sharp knife company of each battalion, to the guard company, to the assault company, and then to the final assault team."

"It's not really graded, but the honor of soldiers to motivate soldiers to fight bravely in training and on the battlefield."

Kong Jie explained, and Ye Min understood.

He was even imagining that if he was a fighter who had just joined the Independence Regiment, facing this selection system, he would definitely burst out with extra fighting spirit.

Isn't the highest aspiration of a soldier just to advance and work hard towards the most elite troops full of honor?

"Captain, I understand what you mean, it's just a commando..."

Kong Jie said: "Are you worried that after you leave the commando team, there will be no one to lead the commando team?"

Ye Min did not deny it, "Yes!"

"How about wood?" Kong Jie asked.

Ye Min shook his head: "Mu Mu is an excellent special forces soldier. He is smart, quick-witted, has a solid military foundation, and has a good psychological quality, but he lacks certain judgment and decisiveness when commanding the commando team to fight."

"Where's Cao Zheng?"

"Cao Zheng basically has all the advantages that wood has, but Cao Zheng lacks wood's cleverness and adaptability."

After Kong Jie listened, he finally understood that even Cao Zheng and Mu Mu, Ye Min, who were the most promising candidates for the position of vice-captain of the commando team, didn't like it. No wonder they didn't want to leave the commando team right now.

Duan Peng's name suddenly came to mind.

Kong Jie smiled and said: "I understand your concerns, this matter is not in a hurry, the formation of the assault company, and the entire selection system of our independent regiment are just a prototype now.

It has not officially started yet, and there is still a long period of time until the official operation, so you stay in the commando for the time being! "

Ye Min nodded, then suddenly came back to his senses and asked, "Leader, what about my reward?"

Kong Jie said: "Reward, what reward? I told you to be the commander of the assault company. If you don't like it, who can you blame?"

Ye Min: "..."

"Captain, at least you have corrected me as the vice-captain!"

Kong Jiele said: "Boy, what's the difference between this pair and the regular one? Anyway, you don't have a regular one in front of you, so you have the final say on the entire commando team?"

"But mine doesn't feel very good!" Ye Min said aggrievedly, he had been the vice-captain for more than a year, and he didn't become a regular.

Kong Jie smiled and said, "Okay, you don't have to worry about the commando captain."

Ye Min wondered: "Captain, this commando team has not had a captain since it was first formed, so you must have been chosen already?"

Kong Jie said, "Not bad."

"Who?"

"The successor you expect." Kong Jie said.

"successor?"

Ye Min, who was full of confusion, didn't get Kong Jie's explanation in the end, so he left the regiment headquarters thinking all the way.

Ye Min left, and the trainer Li Wenjie came to report:

"Reporting to the head, all matters after the war have basically been dealt with."

"Niukou Village, Zhangjiazhuang, West Village and the surrounding villages are being restored and rebuilt in an orderly manner. Our spare soldiers have been sent to the villages to help the villagers build houses, and the necessary materials have also been sent to the logistics team to purchase through hidden channels. , I think it will take less than a week for the houses in all the surrounding villages to be rebuilt."

"All the remains of the martyrs have been settled properly, and those with family members have tried to convey the news, and arranged for sympathizers to come to the door to distribute pensions."

"The captive puppet army has also been fully arranged. It happens that we need people in all aspects of farming, mines, briquette production lines, chicken bouillon production, and cigarette production."

"Speaking of which, these captives came in time."

"It's just that, leader, our policy has always been to treat prisoners preferentially, isn't that a bit..."

Kong Jie said: "Just do it like this, there is nothing wrong with it, even if the boss asks, I have a reason to answer."

"The puppet army devils who were captured, I took care of their meals three times a day, and I healed them when they were injured. I just asked them to contribute and do some work. Let them inquire about these tasks. The soldiers of our regiment Who doesn't do it?"

"Eating enough and living a solid life can be regarded as atonement for the crimes they committed. Isn't this considered preferential treatment? You can ask these captives how they are doing?"

Li Wenjie thought for a while, and said with a smile: "What you said is really preferential treatment."

Kong Jie said: "Of course it is preferential treatment, and I have made it clear to these puppet soldiers that I will finish the three-month work first.

After finishing the work, if I want to leave, I will pay them travel expenses.

Those who want to stay and fight devils, our independent group welcomes them with open doors.

Of course, you have to let them understand a truth, that is, not all cats and dogs can join our Eighth Route Army or our independent regiment.

They still have to go through strict assessment and screening, and they have to give me political and ideological education classes.

When did I understand the transformation, and I got rid of all the bad habits of the old warlords and traitors.

When will our independent group officially accept them. "

"This can be regarded as giving them a head start, saving them from living in a daze all day, not knowing what they are doing."

"In addition, if there are too many people, their minds will become complicated. It is inevitable that there will be some careful thinking inside. The defense must be strengthened, and all aspects of the base area should be kept from these puppet troops. They must not be allowed to know."

"Yes!" Li Wenjie replied.

Then, Li Wenjie reported the progress of some other matters to Kong Jie and left.

in the afternoon.

Kong Jie held a post-war analysis and summary military meeting, and the battalion and company commanders, instructors, and instructors were all present.

At the meeting, Kong Jie made an opening remark, "Old rules, let's talk about some happy things first. Each battalion will report the general seizure situation this time first, and then you will come first, battalion commander."

"Yes!" Wang Leihu, the commander of the first battalion, responded proudly, "Commander, our first battalion made too many seizures this time. The seizures we got from the villages and counties behind the devils, as we said before , which is nearly a battalion’s equipment, plus enough supplies to supply my entire battalion for more than half a year.”

"Afterwards, we fought against the devils and puppet troops in Xicun, and united with the Xinyi regiment to wipe out the tail of the devils. Our first battalion wiped out more than a thousand Japanese and puppet troops, and seized more than 900 rifles, more than 100 pistols, and 23 grenadiers. , [-] light machine guns, and five heavy machine guns... The total number of bullets of each caliber is at least [-] rounds.

Coupled with military supplies such as military boots, military uniforms, bayonets, satchels, and water bottles, it can hold a few carriages at least.

The rations and so on carried by the little devil in the back were basically eaten up, but not much was seized. "

After Wang Leihu finished speaking in one breath, Shen Quan, the second battalion commander beside him, said happily: "I am Leihu, didn't I just seize some more equipment and supplies? I really regard it as a treasure, and I look like a treasure!"

"What needle?" Wang Leihu was puzzled.

Shen Quan said contemptuously: "Leading you to lead troops, don't forget to study. It's an idiom. What does it mean? Go back and ask the instructor!"

In the past six months, the atmosphere of learning cultural knowledge has become very popular in the independent regiment, regardless of whether it is a commander or a soldier.

In particular, the head of the regiment, Kong Jie, encouraged this, and even ordered each company and platoon to organize cultural studies on a daily basis.

Nowadays, all soldiers who have joined the independent regiment for more than half a year, even if they did not know a single word before joining the army, can at least understand the combat comic booklets compiled and distributed by the regiment.

Soldiers are proud of their culture.

At this moment, the first battalion commander, who was defeated in cultural knowledge, was so choked that he could only change the subject in an attempt to regain his position:

"Old Shen, don't talk about your words here, you just studied with the instructor for two more days! Zhu Bajie wears glasses, what kind of college student are you pretending to be? If you have the ability to tell the situation of your second battalion seizure, let's compare it, so we can make a difference." Up or down."

This is an obvious method of aggressiveness, and Shen Quan just followed this method.

"Afraid of you?"

"Listen well, let's not talk about the seizures before returning to our base area. Our two battalions are not the same, so don't make fun of each other."

"Just talk about the combat situation after returning to the base area. Your first battalion is in charge of the battle in the direction of Xicun, and my second battalion is in charge of the battle in the direction of Zhangjiazhuang."

"In this battle, my second battalion killed and wounded the Japanese and puppet troops, at least 500 people."

Wang Leihu said: "That's not much, I can kill the enemy in a battalion with this amount."

Shen Quan said: "The casualty situation of my second battalion is much better than that of your first battalion."

"What's so much better, wouldn't it be less than twenty people?"

"What's wrong with twenty people, which of these twenty people is not a living life, not our own comrades?"

"Old Shen, it's too poisonous for you kid to say that."

"I'm just telling the truth. If you're impatient, you can't blame me."

The intensified contrast, the other battalion commanders, instructors, company commanders, and instructors all looked at each other in blank dismay, but no one was easy to speak.

In the end, Kong Jie knocked on the table and scolded with a smile: "I said the first battalion commander, the second battalion commander, are you here for a meeting, or to see you two quarreling?"

"Okay, let's just skip the second battalion, commander of the third battalion, commander of the fourth battalion, commander of the fifth battalion, please talk about the seizure situation of each battalion."
