Chapter 26 The New Major
The repeated explosions and gunshots frightened the surrounding residents.Many people immediately closed their doors and hid in the back room, for fear of causing disaster.The bolder ones inspected the situation nervously and excitedly through the crack of the door, wanting to see who dared to act wildly on the ground of the 51st Army.At night, there were not many pedestrians on the road. Since the first explosion sounded, everyone fled and quickly disappeared.

Qiu Jian rode his horse into the city from the camp area and heard the sound of gunfire coming from near Cai's garden. At first he thought that the Japanese army's drill had advanced to the headquarters of the 51st Army. He couldn't help but feel humiliated.Damn, is there no one in the 51st Army who bullies us?He made up his mind that no matter what punishment he had to bear, he would give the little devil a serious look—abandoning the guards and rushing to Huayuan East Avenue first.He rushed to the street in a rage, just in time to see Ouyang Yun chop off Ono Masa's head with a single knife in front of the raging fire.

When the explosion sounded, a guard company of the 51st Army in Cai's Garden immediately dispatched and blocked all the exits in the garden.At first they also thought that the Japanese were coming to provoke them, and for the sake of the safety of the military headquarters, they showed special caution. When the gunfire stopped, they sent a squad of guards out to investigate the situation, but they saw Captain Qiu and a The ragged young men stood together, staring big eyes at small eyes.

Holding a pistol, Qiu Jian looked at the tragic situation at the scene, quickly judged their identities from the clothing and weapons of the deceased, and asked, "Japanese?"

Ouyang Yun nodded, and then looked at him coldly——Qiu Jian came by such a coincidence, because of the dispute with Chen Shaohua at noon, Ouyang Yun could no longer believe any of them—who knows if his whereabouts were What did they reveal to the Japanese?
His unfriendly eyes fell into Qiu Jian's eyes. The latter was stunned, and then his eyes widened. Everyone is a smart person. Qiu Jian naturally understood the meaning represented by this eye. He was very angry, and said in a low voice: " Do you suspect that I have something to do with these Japanese?"

Ouyang Yun answered honestly, "I don't know."

Qiu Jian laughed and said, "You think too highly of yourself, and you think too little of me!"

A class of guards came over, and seeing the confrontation between the two, they naturally surrounded Ouyang Yun in a fan shape.Someone who knew Qiu Jian asked, "Chief Qiu, what happened?"

Qiu Jian said: "It's nothing, my brother was just attacked by the Japanese." Turning to Ouyang Yun, he said: "It seems that the Japanese already know your identity. You can't enter Cai's Garden. Get on my horse and leave quickly." Go." After speaking, he jumped off the horse and handed him the reins.

Ouyang Yun didn't take the reins, thinking that he might have misunderstood him, and said a little embarrassedly: "Thanks, I don't know how to ride a horse."

"Oh?!" Qiu Jian laughed, and said emotionally, "I thought you knew everything, haha."

Ouyang Yun shook his head and smiled wryly, looked at the policeman who appeared at the intersection, and said, "It seems that I have to go, Tian Ge doesn't know if there is anything wrong." After speaking, he glanced at Qiu Jian, and turned into a nearby alley , soon gone.

Hearing him mention Chu Tiange, Qiu Jian let out a strange cry, got on his horse and ran into the garden of Cai's family, and thus, the previous scene happened.

The Japanese army's assassination operation against Ouyang Yun near Cai's Garden ended in disastrous failure, and only one of the four fighters sent escaped back to the wounded Sakurajima Shi, which made the Japanese North China Garrison Command officer who knew about the incident very angry. , felt deep fear.Any one of these four people in the army is capable of being one against ten, and now they plan to deal with a Shina boy at the same time, and it turned out to be such an ending. This "two heroes of resistance against Japan" is really too difficult to deal with.

Ouyang Yun sneaked back to the Song Mansion overnight, and Song Zheyuan and Guo Biao were all sweating for him when they heard about it, and at the same time, their confidence in him was even stronger.Since Ouyang Yun is such a super existence, it is undoubtedly a good thing for the growth of the 29th Army if he is really given a student regiment.Thinking about it this way, Song Zheyuan became more enthusiastic about the inclusion of the training class. The next morning, he personally called General Guan Linzheng on the phone. The two of them exchanged small news. Guan Linzheng, who had already obtained some inside information about the Sino-Japanese negotiations, knew that the training class was disbanded. It was already a firm matter, and I also wanted to find a good place for the students, so I readily agreed to his request.

The two officers finalized the matter on the phone, and the next thing was left to the subordinates to handle.

Since Chu Tiange had already blown the wind among the students, and the reputation of the 29th Army was not bad, the students were not too resistant, except that Lu Dahong and Liang Dawei in the instructor's team had some opinions, and the handover was very smooth.

In the morning of the same day, under Song Zheyuan's letter of appointment, Ouyang Yun became the acting head of the academy regiment established by the 29th Army, with the rank of major.After having lunch in the Song Mansion, he changed into the uniform of a major of the 29th Army, and then under Guo Biao's repeated instructions, he single-handedly went to the former training class of the 25th Division and today's station of the 29th Army Corps.

What Song Zheyuan meant was to arrange a few senior military officers under Ouyang Yun to help him suppress and discipline those apprentices.Ouyang Yun considered that the safety of the factory in the future could only depend on the Xuebing Corps, so the pure blood of the Xuebing Corps must be guaranteed. Although Song is enlightened, he is still a warlord after all. If you open it, if you don't have any strength to rely on in your hands, it will be difficult to handle, so he declined his kindness.

Song Zheyuan did plan to press the nail in the Xuebing Corps, but he just listened to Jiang Shuren's suggestion. Thinking about the beginning of the cooperation, it is necessary to give the other party considerable trust to get a good impression. Besides, the Xuebing Corps is a regiment after all. There were only a little more than 200 people, and they thought they couldn't make a big wave, so they didn't delve into this issue.

Ouyang Yun, who was dressed in a school officer's uniform, just appeared in front of the students with a letter of commission and 5000 yuan. He originally wanted to show off his eloquence.There are three fires for a new official to take office, and a new official always needs some testimonials when he takes office!It's a pity that he prepared his speech all morning, but he didn't have a chance to express it.

The reason has to be blamed on himself. What he said to Qiu Jian last night, which was relayed to Chu Kuoji through Qiu Jian's mouth, scared Adjutant Chu - Chu Tiange is the only one in the Chu family. If something happens to him, let alone how the eldest brother will treat him, the old man will not be able to pass the test first.So, with the mentality of believing what he had or not, he led two buddies and a few loyal subordinates to raid the training class overnight, and kidnapped Chu Tiange in the name of arrest.

The students didn't know the truth, they all thought that the 51st Army would hand over Chu Tiange to the Japanese. Now that Ouyang Yun came, since they knew about his relationship with Chu Tiange, they naturally had to tell him about it immediately , and then, let him find a way to save people—maybe in their view, since the "anti-Japanese dual heroes" can cause "tragedies" for the Japanese, it should not be a problem to rescue someone from the barracks. Yun couldn't laugh or cry.It was hard for him to say some things clearly, so he had to say that he had received the news that Chu Tiange was safe now, so he dealt with everyone.

Originally, he was worried that the students would be resistant to the sudden change of family, so he took great pains to prepare a series of excuses.Now that Chu Tiange's incident happened, the attention of the students seems to have been completely shifted to this aspect - he has been in the training class for nearly an hour, and no one has raised anything about the student regiment.In order to save his worries, he didn't say anything, and asked the squad leader Chen Shichang to gather all the students on the school grounds, first read out the letter of appointment, and then began to roll their names according to the roster.

There were a total of 215 people in the training class. Chu Tiange was "arrested", and Chao Hongle, Pang Wenju, Zhang Cheng, and Zhang Zejun asked for leave to go out. There were actually 210 people.After the roll call, Ouyang Yun held an on-site meeting with several class cadres, and directly renamed the training class as the 29st Battalion and 1st Company of the 1th Army Corps. More than 12 people were added to form a reconnaissance platoon, and three squads were set up below.Later, as the acting head of the regiment, he issued the first letter of appointment: Chen Shichang, the former squad leader of the training class, was appointed as the acting company commander of the first company; Huang Tao, the deputy squad leader, and Chang Jinghua, the political commissar, were the acting deputy company commander; The other substitute squad and platoon leaders are also served by former squad cadres.After announcing the appointment, he explained to the students: The reason why the title of the military officer needs to add a code word is because the student regiment is still in the period of formation, and the current appointment of officers is only a stopgap measure.In the future, the appointment and promotion of officers and soldiers of the Academy Corps will be based on personal ability and military merit, and there will be detailed assessment methods. Regardless of background or education level in the Academy Corps, as long as they can really fight and lead the team well, everyone in the Academy Corps will have the opportunity to become an officer. !

These words were very inspiring. To put it more directly, Ouyang Yun clearly placed a ladder of promotion and fortune in front of all living beings, which naturally attracted applause from the students.

Ouyang Yun struck while the iron was hot, and then began to arrange the staffing of the shift.Among them, the reconnaissance platoon was given priority. Since Chu Tiange was not around, he, as a representative, watched the drill of the students and picked out 25 of them who had good physical strength and looked quite clever, and decided to be members of the reconnaissance platoon.Then, let the squad leaders choose the members of the class by themselves, one person at a time, and proceed in order to ensure that the strength of each class is not very different.

After the staffing was completed and officers at all levels were in place, Chen Shichang assembled the team as the commanding officer, ordered everyone to rest, and then asked the "team seat" Ouyang Yun to give a lecture.

Ouyang Yun nodded, walked to the front of the team, stood at attention with a "snap", and saluted the standard military salute of the People's Liberation Army.His expression was solemn, his eyes were deliberately wide open, and he looked radiant and energetic, which invisibly gave the students confidence and hope. Everyone couldn't help but imitate him, stand at attention, and straighten their chests.

Ouyang Yun was very satisfied with everyone's performance, and said in a deep voice, "Take it easy!" Refreshing his spirits, he glanced over the faces of the students in the front row one by one, and began his inaugural speech: "Comrades, it is a great honor to witness together with you. The establishment of the 29th Military Academy Corps. Starting today, you, me, everyone, and all our members of the Corps will fight together to defend the dignity of the nation and the territorial integrity of the country, and share weal and woe. Everyone must have something to do with the current domestic and international situation. Understand—the three northeastern provinces have long been lost, the Japanese are still sharpening their knives and staring at North China, and our motherland has been weak for too long after years of civil wars, what about our government?" He shook his head and smiled wryly. : "It doesn't matter if I don't mention it-everyone knows the history of the 29th Army. No matter how its predecessor Northwest Army performed in the civil war, but at the beginning of the establishment of the 29th Army, Song Jun said that there will be no more civil wars. The guns must be consistent with the outside. Everyone has also seen that during the Battle of the Great Wall, at Xifengkou, our heroic 29th Army with a big sword insisted on leaving a deep lesson for the Japanese devils! There are such officers and seniors , although we are a newly established army, but, I think, as long as everyone always remembers that I am a Chinese, and we will never allow an inch of land to be lost in our own hands, then we will eventually drive away all evil The Japanese invaders..."

In the end, Ouyang Yun racked his brains to prepare the speech all morning and showed it as he wished. Although a lot was omitted in the middle, the effect was not bad—it not only ignited the enthusiasm of the students, but indirectly He also praised Song Zheyuan and the 29th Army.Later, this speech spread to the ears of Song Zheyuan and the officers of the 29th Army, which earned him a lot of impression points, and also laid a good foundation for the relationship between the Academy Corps and the friendly army.From this point of view alone, the brain cells he sacrificed all morning were considered a worthy death.
