The strongest militia

() In fact, when Hu Guangzong's old chief appeared in front of the sub-base, Hu Guangzong had already guessed the intention of the other party's visit, and he was convinced that the old chief was coming, and the rear headquarters also received the news.Although Hu Guangzong did not participate in the management of the intelligence department, he knew very well that in the rural areas controlled by the militia columns at all levels, as long as strangers appeared, they would inevitably be monitored by the intelligence organizations of the militia squads at all levels.

This kind of extreme control with almost no water ingress was something that Hu Guangzong never dared to imagine before.This also shows in a sense that Deng Chenggong's strategic thinking is more far-reaching than those of their officers who came from regular military academies.He said that all the people are soldiers, not only training these villagers how to carry out defensive operations, but also training these villagers in certain anti-special and anti-seepage methods.

Any stranger who entered the column-controlled area would be questioned and interrogated by the militia.Without the consent of the headquarters, he, the old chief, would not have come here at all.Allowing the other party to enter the branch base, in a sense, the headquarters is looking at the other party as his old chief.Otherwise, when his old chief revealed his identity, he would be kicked out of the base by the militia squad below.

Regarding Liu Guang's confidant's worries, Hu Guangzong smiled wryly and said: "Master, I am very grateful that you came all the way to visit me. Regarding the kindness of the young marshal, I am afraid that Guangzong does not have the blessing to enjoy it. To be honest, I and Although Liu Guang is the major general commander of the column, what I want to tell you is that, except Commander Deng, who has the right to announce the restructuring of this unit, no one can do it, and neither of us can do it.

Don't be surprised, sir, I can tell you very clearly that Commander Deng's prestige in the column is beyond your imagination.They may not know who my deputy commander is, but any militia member who joins a militia column knows who the commander is.Not only these militiamen knew, but their family members knew that this was Commander Deng's unit.The reason why they feel relieved to hand over their children to the militia column to join the army is entirely because of Commander Deng's dedication to keeping them safe.If I want to pull this army away, not to mention that the officers below will not agree, even those militiamen may shoot me black at any time.

As a native of the Northeast, I do not deny that I have a certain fondness for the Northeast Army, but I am just a former soldier of the Northeast Army who now joins the militia column.They feel that being a soldier here is much more comfortable than being in the Northeast Army.Although the militia column did not say that they would counterattack the Northeast, they could feel the support and love of the villagers in any village they went to.This kind of honor they had never felt in the Northeast Army before made them feel proud to join the militia column.

Teacher, you also know that those of us are all because of the increasingly impetuous combat thinking of the old troops, so that these soldiers who want to fight back to the northeast cannot bear this atmosphere at all.To put it bluntly, the young marshal's non-resistance to orders broke our hearts from the Northeast.Therefore, you should understand what kind of opposition I will receive if I say that I bring these North China soldiers under the banner of the Northeast Army. "

Yes!

In the September [-]th Incident, a word of non-resistance caused hundreds of thousands of Northeast Army elites to retreat directly into the customs, and threw all the great rivers and mountains in the Northeast to the enemy who killed the old man.This made some soldiers of the Northeast Army who respected the old commander very much, they were heartbroken for the current young commander.

When the teacher heard this, he also felt a little helpless and said: "This is not the young commander's original intention. The reason why he gave the order not to resist is also an order from the Nanjing government. You can't blame the young commander for all this. !"

Regarding this kind of excuse, Hu Guangzong said very bluntly: "That big bald head, what does his words have to do with our Northeast Army? Only the young commander takes his words seriously. If the old commander is alive, you see the old commander will We will not follow his orders. When we withdraw from the Northeast, not only will we lose the support of tens of millions of people in the Northeast, but they will even hate us for retreating without a fight.

As a soldier, you should make sacrifices to defend your home and country. If you are afraid of death, don't be a soldier.We were soldiers who ate the food provided by the people, and took the military pay they contributed, but when we used us, we disappointed them greatly.If you were an ordinary person, how would you feel? "

Hu Guangzong, who became more and more angry, also forgot that the person in front of him was his teacher's head. If it wasn't for the ordinary Liu Guang coughing, he might have jumped in and yelled at him for a while.Having followed Deng Chenggong for so long, he has already understood very well that being a soldier is not for the generals of a certain place, nor for promotion and fortune, but for the thousands of people behind them.The militiamen are soldiers from the common people, peasants, and villagers. They have the obligation to fulfill their responsibilities as soldiers on behalf of the common people.

The commander of the Northeast Army, who knew that his trip might be in vain, could only stop and continue to persuade the other party.In fact, it's more because he thinks that such a militia unit should not be worth paying more for them.Instead, they began to ask about the situation of the militia column, but regarding the military secrets of the column, Hu Guangzong and Liu Guang still complied with the confidentiality of the column very responsibly.So much so that the old chief just thought that the other party had over ten thousand people, and that the mob under him was a little bit more.It should not cause any harm to the Northeast Army, so everyone can live in peace.

When the old chief offered to leave, Hu Guangzong and Liu Guang didn't hold back much, and when the other party left the branch base, they both decided to report what happened just now to the headquarters.Although Hu Guangzong knew that Deng Chenggong had admitted to trusting them unconditionally since they joined the militia column.But in order to avoid this possible misunderstanding, they decided that it would be better to confess.

After receiving the telegram from Hu Guangzong, Xu Mingyuan felt that a big stone fell to the ground in his heart, and at the same time admired Deng Chenggong's foresight.Compared with him being basically responsible for the rear of the column, Deng Chenggong, the commander, has little understanding of the control of the column.Regardless of the fact that Deng Chenggong did not usually manage the expansion and reorganization of the troops, the appointment of officers above the battalion level must be signed by him to take effect, and his signature must be obtained every time a post is issued by the column.

No one can replace this invisible control.He, Xu Mingyuan, was no good, and Hu Guangzong and Liu Guang were even worse.As long as the four giants have the same thinking, the regiment-level officers below will not be able to pull away the troops.This also means that the way of giving money and hats has little effect on the officer group of the militia column.

With the gathering of representatives from all parties who arrived in Dachenzhuang one after another, Xu Mingyuan, the groom-to-be, naturally had to entertain and arrange for these representatives to stay in the renovated Chenjiazhuang.The cadres of the column battalion who received the order to participate in the banquet gathered at the headquarters of the Yinlong Valley column at this time, and everyone gathered together to look at Deng Chenggong sitting above, with admiration in their eyes.

Many of these battalion leaders are older than Deng Chenggong, but no one has ever dared to show off in front of him.And they know very well that Deng Chenggong is very particular about hierarchy in formal occasions, but Deng Chenggong also respects them in private.This kind of attitude of distinguishing between public and private is beyond the imagination of any battalion commander who understands the rules of other regular troops.

Deng Chenggong, who was sitting on the rostrum, looked at the hundreds of battalion leaders sitting below, and said happily: "Seeing you gathered together, I realized that I have so many people in my hands without knowing it. Excellent officers. First of all, on behalf of the column, I would like to express my gratitude to you for your work in the following counties. It is because of your dedication that the various tasks of the column can develop so smoothly. This makes me full of enthusiasm for the all-out war of resistance in the near future Gained confidence!

The order you received this time is to attend the wedding banquet of Director Xu of our political department. It stands to reason that making everyone come all the way to have a drink is really not in line with the regulations of the column.But this is a major event for our column. A large part of you started from the column and came to your current position. You also know that when Director Xu joined the team, he was already an orphan.

Now that he is about to get married, it means that the second-generation heir of our militia column will be born soon.Of course, I'm just here to say this, after you go down, don't report me to Director Xu, otherwise he may not be able to do anything to me, and that Mrs. Xu will probably give me a good lecture.

Regarding the fact that many older officers in the column do not have families, everyone is here today. I also announced a wartime rule, that is, as long as they are over 25 years old, soldiers and officers who have served in the army for more than three years can marry.The column will give a small gift to married soldiers and officers, as a reward for you to spread the branches and leaves for the column.

I think many of you meet this requirement, so I hope you can find a wife who knows you well in the future.Don't pay too much attention to the kind of home where the foreign enemy is not destroyed. Our column does not have this rule.Just in order not to affect your combat ability and mentality, at the age of 25, you are basically mature in thinking, and you will not miss important military and political affairs because of impulsiveness.So, after you go back, you can also announce this order.

Of course, I know that there are not many soldiers who meet this requirement, but as long as officers above the battalion level are over 25 years old, they don’t have to be limited to three years of service.However, if you don't work hard because of your marriage and miss military affairs, don't blame me as a commander for being unkind.Everyone should be clear about this official and private matter.

After talking about this new regulation, what I want to tell you now is that this time, I will use Director Xu's wedding banquet.After I announced that I would go back, the county militia regiments at all levels must organize local air defense and sneak attack drills no less than ten times a month.No discount is allowed, because I can tell you very clearly that the pace of war is approaching, and there is not much time left for us to prepare.Let the common people be more proficient in some unexpected war methods such as air defense, which can save them a life in the future. They may not understand this, but as the military commander of the column, you should always maintain the vigilance that this kind of soldier should have .

After finishing the official business, let me tell you a personal matter, that is, some of you here should have received invitations from various military and political forces recently. I believe you will not agree to the conditions they promised, but you should not be too stubborn brains.You can tell the other party that this official position can be negotiated, but you can ask them to give more of the ocean, guns and ammunition, to show the sincerity of wooing!

The best way to do this kind of sugar-coated shells is to eat the sugar and hit the shells back.I can also temporarily announce a rule here. If anyone can bring the ocean, guns and ammunition to the column for free, I will give your militia a certain amount of compensation based on the property you get.Such a good deal, how do you do it without me handing it over to you? "

Seeing Deng Chenggong announce a major event that would affect the morale of the army suddenly in a different way, undoubtedly made some officers who had reported or not reported but received outside forces feel relieved.

Hu Guangzong, who considered himself an old fritter in the army, had to admire this kind of invisible warning and reassurance.Now with Deng Chenggong's instructions, I believe that the real headaches will be those officials who come from various places to win over.If they knew that they had given both the money and the gun, but none of them got it, they would definitely have very rich expressions when the time comes.
