Chapter 650: Generous and heroic!
“Captain Tang, I am more than 20 years older than you, so it's not an exaggeration to call you brother!”
Brother, since you are determined to fight decisively, although I am short of soldiers and guns, I will never be lax, so I will naturally support you fully.
The command of the Liu Ruzhai Infantry Regiment you want, I can also put it under your command as the commander of the 145th Division, the Guangde War Zone Supervisor, but the name of the Tiger Regiment cannot be used! If word got out, it would cause an uproar. "The Army Lieutenant General said seriously.
In his eyes, Tang Dao is already the best choice in terms of battlefield command and fighting will, but after all, he is still too young and does not understand the distinction between levels.
Now the big boss is extremely sensitive to military power. For example, the Sichuan Army originally had an army of 400,000 people. However, during the reorganization last year, in order to prevent the Sichuan Army from becoming too powerful, he only gave the two armies a strength of 200,000 people.
The provincial chairman who unified Sichuan Province also had to take a "curve to save the country" and organized the 100,000 downsized elite soldiers into county security corps. Unexpectedly, the dozens of retained security corps became all-out elites who fought in the war. The Sichuan Army, which suffered heavy losses, was supplemented by the most powerful troops from each department.
This is true for the big guys who have chosen to accept the reorganization, let alone others.
The Ministry of Military and Political Affairs has strict regulations. Officers at the colonel level must be personally appointed by the boss, and officers above the school level must have a military order issued by the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs.
The appointment of officers is strict, not to mention the army establishment. Anyone above the battalion level must be stamped and registered by the Ministry of Military Affairs. Just like the two infantry battalions of Tang Dao and Yao Ziqing, the Four Lines Camp and Baoshan Camp were named after the locations of their respective **** battles. , all were approved only after the big boss personally signed the military order.
Tang Dao's mouth is like that of the Tiger Regiment. No matter how good he is at fighting, he will arouse the suspicion of the big guys and implicate the 23rd Army and even the entire Sichuan Army.
"The Tiger Regiment cannot be used. Liu Ruzhai was also killed by me. The original number cannot be used again. Otherwise, if the group army headquarters investigates, it will definitely hinder our army." Tang Dao couldn't help but frowned.
"Yes! Brother, I have already considered this. With the deputy commander's temperament, if he knew that you had executed his brother-in-law directly, he would definitely be angry with you and me... I am not afraid of him usually, but In this war, the lives of thousands of brothers are involved, and this must be guarded against." The Army Lieutenant General also nodded.
After pondering for a moment, he suddenly raised his brows, as if he had made up his mind, and said: "There is another way. The Liu Ruzhai regiment has suffered heavy losses in this battle and has basically lost the ability to fight again. Its remaining troops have been temporarily incorporated into your war zone due to wartime needs. I will sign the military order on the orders of the 145th Division Headquarters. As for when to return to the army, it is up to you, Commander Tang."
Looking at Tang Dao solemnly, his eyes shone with determination: "Even if you keep them, brother, as long as they can serve the country and kill enemies under your command, the entire 145th Division will not cause trouble to you, brother."
As soon as these words came out, Tang Dao felt a little embarrassed.
As the saying goes: Ginger is spicy when old! He knew that the veteran in the army in front of him had seen through his little trick.
Yes, if Tang Dao wants to compete with the Guoqi detachment in the mountains of Guangde, with his current independent battalion having less than 1,000 troops, it is purely an egg against a rock.
Already possessing the heart of a warrior, the Sichuan Army Corps, which has only a thousand men but doubled its combat power, is the army he must win. Only with a total strength of more than 2,000 men can he have the confidence to fight against the Kunisaki detachment.
But the establishment of this Sichuan Army Corps belongs to the 145th Division. During the previous blocking war, the Sichuan Army Corps could obey him, the director of the Operations Department of the frontline headquarters. But after this battle, what name does he have to command?
Just relying on the title of a war captain is not enough.
Therefore, Tang Dao played a little trick and took the initiative to give the regiment the title of Tiger Regiment, hoping that this person would take the initiative to sign a military order and transfer the command to him. The veteran general in the army had been walking at his own pace, but when he said, "Even if you don't pay back, I won't trouble you," Tang Dao knew that people are so easy to fool, I have long seen his little thoughts.
That is to say, because he led his troops to stop the regiment and relieve him of the crisis on his flank, he has always been grateful and did not want to expose him.
No matter that era, those who can occupy a place in the army are considered to be the proud ones of heaven. Are there any simple people?
Seeing the apology flashing in the eyes of his younger brother Tang Dao, the Army Lieutenant General smiled and said: "Brother, don't think that I just used the hypocritical words in the officialdom. If it were someone else, it was just to expand my own strength. Not to mention one soldier and one soldier, I can't even accept this rhetoric.
But you, although we have only known each other for three days, I know that you are different from those people. Just like those brothers led by Liu Ruzhai, they were just cowards who abandoned their formation and fled, but under your command, they can become warriors who make the Japanese army fearful.
So, I am willing to hand them over to you, hoping that you can lead them, inflict heavy losses on the Japanese invaders, and promote the power of our Sichuan Army and the power of China!
Speaking of which, I am still taking advantage of you, my brother. No matter how well you fight in this battle, you still have a share of my 145th Division. As a division commander, I can't push you away even if I want to! If you don't do it right, you can still get a Blue Sky and White Sun Medal in vain! "
Tang Dao was really grateful for not only giving away half of the infantry regiment for nothing, but also saying all the good things about it.
The three lieutenant generals he met in this era, whether it was the scheming Lieutenant General Guo, the bold and bold Lieutenant General Wu, or this Lieutenant General Rao, each of them had the label of being from the local warlord faction, but they also They all have a very common characteristic.
That is, they have the courage to deal with the foreigners who invade the country without risking their lives.
Maybe they don't want the wealth and power they have worked for for many years to be destroyed, or maybe they have their own patriotism. There are many reasons, but there is no doubt that they are the bravest people of this era.
Tang Dao is honored to have fought alongside such a group of people.
Seeing that Tang Dao was silent for a long time, the Army Lieutenant General, who was over forty years old, blinked and said in an almost teasing tone: "Brother! If you don't speak, all the ink in my stomach will be used up. I can't find any words of praise.”
"Haha, Brother Rao, since you have said all that, what else can Tang Dao say? In addition to thanking you, Tang Dao from Sichuan can assure you, Brother Rao, that whenever anyone talks about the independence of our 43rd Army in the future, Camp, there will only be one comment: The people of Sichuan who came out to fight the war have already committed themselves to the country! "
“Pledge yourself to the country!” The Army Lieutenant General's eyes shone slightly, and he muttered to himself, repeating Tang Dao's words. Suddenly he laughed loudly, stretched out his hand towards Tang Dao and said: "Haha! This is a wonderful word! Our Sichuan Army will definitely live up to the name of the Sichuan Army! Brother, you can go ahead and fight. Although our 145th Division is no more than a thousand men, there is one person here. , I will never let the bandits harass you for a day.”
“Then why don't I just earn a Blue Sky and White Sun Medal for the 145th Division!” Tang Dao firmly grasped the hand of the generous and heroic Army Lieutenant General in front of him and made a solemn promise.
In the past, this general who died before he left the battlefield had no great military exploits, but he proved his determination to serve the country by risking his own life. He was fully worthy of the highest honor in the military.
But not.
This time, he will help him get it back.
