Rise From Eight Hundred Chapter 756

Chapter 756 The Thoughts of 'Father-in-law'

"Okay! Since you, Commander Tang Da, have spoken, and our 67th Army can afford this dowry, let Shaoxun lead our cavalry battalion to join your Four Lines Regiment." Commander Wu Dajun laughed and suddenly said.

Everyone was shocked!

Even Tang Dao, the instigator, was shocked and didn't know how to answer for a while.

His original intention was just to ask for a high price and wait for Comrade Wu, who was already 70 to 80% drunk, to pay back the money on the spot. Tang Dao would be very satisfied if he could get him another cavalry platoon without using a cavalry battalion.

Unexpectedly, Comrade Lao Wu immediately agreed. It seems that this drink was really not in vain!

Looking at Tang Dao's surprised expression, Comrade Wu had a trace of pride on his face.

Tang Dao, a little fox, has always been able to predict everything before his enemies, and has outshone him, an old man in the world. This time, he finally failed to calculate it!

If his subordinates knew that this man actually competed with Tang Dao over this matter and sent out a cavalry battalion like this, they would probably silently complain in their hearts. This kind of result would be even worse than losing to Tang Dao. Oops.

"However, you, Tang Dao, have to promise me one thing! When the size of your Si Xing Regiment cavalry expands and our 67th Army needs them again, you have to return them to me." Comrade Lao Wu spat out a thick Smelling of alcohol, he stared at Tang Dao and said.

"Okay! I can guarantee this, no matter where our Four Lines Regiment is fighting, whenever the friendly forces are in need, my Tang Dao will return to Zhao in perfect condition. No matter how many troops our Four Lines Regiment has, they will be fully equipped when they return!" Tang Dao solemnly promised.

"Then it's settled! I have to rush back to the military headquarters. In three days, you will bring a baggage unit to meet with Shaoxun and the cavalry battalion to collect the ordnance to be carried when going north." Comrade Lao Wu gave Tang a deep look. Knife, turn around and leave.

All the colonel officers quickly followed, and Tang Dao and the colonel's adjutant helped Comrade Wu, who was obviously drunk, to the left and right, and carried him to the co-pilot of the truck.

Gong Shaoxun stood beside the war horse and gave a military salute to Lei Xiong, Zhuang Shisan, Guo Shouzhi, Leng Feng and others and shook hands one by one to say goodbye. These officers and he were just friendly troops before, but from this moment on, they are colleagues, and the etiquette is more in place than before.

Using etiquette to show that the second deputy commander who was parachuted from the 67th Army was not arrogant at all, this made Zhuang Shisan and others below him feel a lot more comfortable.

These are manifestations of emotional intelligence and are more conducive to unity. Naturally, Tang Dao sees them and is more satisfied with the person he chooses.

For Comrade Lao Wu, the standards given by the Four Lines Regiment were high enough. The chief officers led by Tang Dao were sent out of the station, while Lu Sanjiang led the best cavalry platoon of the Four Lines Regiment and sent them all the way for twenty kilometers.

Comrade Lao Wu obviously drank too much and fell asleep as soon as he got into the passenger seat of the truck. This made the colonel's adjutant sitting in the back very worried and he kept observing the officer's expression.

Until they were far away from the Si Xing Regiment station, Comrade Lao Wu suddenly opened his eyes. The colonel's adjutant quickly handed over the towel that had been soaked in water, "Military seat, do you want to get out of the car and rest first?"

"Hey! Adjutant Zhao, does he think I'm drunk too?" Comrade Wu took the towel and wiped his face with a smile on his face.

Apart from the slightly red cheeks, the eyes that were once hazy from drunkenness are extremely clear and clear, unlike those after being drunk.

"Also, if I hadn't drunk too much, how could I have easily sent the cavalry battalion directly under the 67th Army Headquarters out? Even after continuous fierce battles, there are only 120 cavalrymen left in the cavalry battalion of the Military Headquarters."

"Yes! Military Seat, you are very generous, but how much effort did it take for you to set up the cavalry battalion? Not to mention that war horses are difficult to buy and tame. Are those cavalrymen veterans with two or three years of military service? I'll wait for you. When we go back, the deputy commander and chief of staff will definitely blame you for not feeling sorry for me!" the colonel's adjutant replied with a pained look on his face.

"Haha! Adjutant Zhao, if you complain, you are complaining. Don't bring them two with you. I dare say that they will never complain to me, and they will even applaud me for this idea." Comrade Lao Wu shouted. laugh it out.

The colonel's adjutant tried his best to think of the benefits of sending the cavalry battalion to the military. Unfortunately, he couldn't think of a reason, but he knew one thing very clearly that he, the commander of the army, would never be here. They talk nonsense to cover up whether they are drunk or not.

What's more, looking at his current state, he definitely doesn't look like he's drunk.

"It's normal that you don't understand. Otherwise, wouldn't you be second to Tang Dao? If you had half the vision and strategy of that brat Tang Dao, then I would rather send away all the cavalry belonging to my 67th Army." He looked sideways. Looking at the confused adjutant, Comrade Old Wu sighed slightly.

"Don't be dissatisfied. In my opinion, don't say you are not as good as Tang Dao. Even me, an old soldier who has been marching and fighting for more than 20 years, and my two old guys are not as good as Tang Dao in terms of grasping the entire battlefield." There are so many bastards!”

The colonel's adjutant took a breath of cold air.

This evaluation is really too high.

"You have to be really talented when it comes to marching and fighting. Tang Dao impressed me enough in the Battle of Songjiang, the Jiashan Front and even the Battle of Guangde. He seemed to be able to predict all the deployments and movements of the Japanese army. If it weren't for the fact that he was truly The Sichuanese killed the Japanese like chopping vegetables, and my intuition also told me that he had a deep-seated hatred for the Japanese. Lao Guo and I would both agree that he was a high-level spy who the Japanese spent a lot of money to infiltrate my inside.

When I came to his regiment headquarters this time, I realized that I still underestimated this guy. I was able to figure out the strategy of attacking in the north and defending in the south. This is really impressive! I can guarantee that before this, only two people in the entire fifth theater could know these four words. "

"Those two people?" the colonel's adjutant was dumbfounded.

“One is me, and the other is naturally the one who just came to take charge of Xuzhou.” Comrade Lao Wu pointed upward. "The person who proposed this strategy to me and me in the telegram was the first director of the Political Department of Whampoa Military Academy."

Commander Wu's comments were like thunderbolts one after another, numbing the poor colonel's adjutant's nerves.

Comrade Lao Wu, at least he can still get close to him. Those two are big shots who are far away from him and can't reach him in his life.

A small group leader actually made a similar judgment to them. This person must have saved the Jade Emperor in his previous life!

An unbelievable thought came to mind. Could it be that Wu Dajun sent out the cavalry battalion just to be tied to Tang Dao? Make a big bet in advance to invest in the future of Tang Dao!

If this is the case, then in Wu Dajunzuo's mind, how high can Tang Dao reach in the future?

"Haha! But don't think too much. No matter how prosperous Tang Dao is in the future, I, Old Wu, won't have to cut off my arm to catch him." Seeing the look on his adjutant's face, Comrade Old Wu didn't know what he was thinking. Confused thoughts. "The reason why I pretended to be drunk and agreed to Tang Dao's request was because I didn't want these good boys from the Cavalry Battalion to die in vain!"

The colonel's adjutant's head is about to explode. How can this be said?

“This Battle of Xuzhou may be more cruel than the **** battle of Songhu! Our country has already lost two important towns in the southeast, and this place has the railway line for the Japanese army to go south. If Xuzhou is lost again, the Japanese army will have the most important supply line to attack the hinterland of our Central Plains.

As Tang Dao said, even if the battle cannot be won, it must be delayed long enough so that our country has time to prepare troops to continue the decisive battle with the Japanese army. But the two Japanese armies are attacking from the north and the south. How can this battle be so easy to win?

Since our 67th Army is determined to fight to the death with the Japanese army here, it must hold on to the city. Under the heavy bombardment of the Japanese army, what is the purpose of the cavalry if it does not die in vain? "Comrade Lao Wu's eyes flashed with pain.

“But we can have the cavalry out of the city for mobile operations like we did in the Battle of Songjiang, and we can also spy on the Japanese army's movements!” the colonel's adjutant retorted weakly.

“The battlefield is completely different. In the Battle of Songjiang, the Japanese army must capture Songjiang. Otherwise, they will be unable to advance southward. They can only besiege Songjiang with heavy troops. There are no Japanese troops in other directions. The Japanese cavalry has a lot of room for maneuver.

But this time, the Japanese army attacked from multiple directions and the cavalry left the city, but they would only be killed one by one by the surrounding Japanese troops in the wilderness.

While remaining in the city, the cavalry would definitely be reluctant to abandon their horses when the Japanese artillery shelled them. The probability of both men and horses dying would be much higher than that of the infantry who could get into the bunker.

You say, as a military commander, can I watch these good boys being killed by Japanese heavy artillery with my own eyes? Giving them to Tang Dao can take them away from the battlefield. When I need them in the future, I can bring them back.

Hey, you all think that I got drunk by Tang Dao **** and he took advantage of me. As you don't know, this has helped me solve a problem that I suffered from! Comrade Lao Wu said with a relaxed look.

"That military seat, if that's the case, why don't we simply lend him all the cavalry of our 67th Army temporarily, and then get them back after the war is over."

"I am the commander of the 67th Army, but I must also give the two lieutenant generals and division commanders enough autonomy. They are also generals. I can't make all the decisions for them. When you become the commander-in-chief in the future, remember not to All power is in the hands of others. If you don't trust people, don't trust them. Otherwise, sooner or later, your subordinates will become disloyal and disloyal!" Comrade Lao Wu said seriously.

"The cavalry of the two infantry divisions. Before the war, I would advise them to leave the city and move hundreds of miles away. How many people can survive in the end depends on their luck. Fortunately, I left enough with Tang Dao. As long as they are still there, the cavalry of our 67th Army will finally have a chance to regain its prosperity.

“As soon as the military commander mentioned it, my subordinates suddenly became enlightened! The military commander is brilliant!” The colonel's adjutant suddenly realized. "Captain Tang is very scheming, but he didn't expect that the army would be more far-sighted than he thought. Jiang is still old and hot, but in terms of experience, he is a little behind after all!"

"Haha, then you are wrong. When I asked him for a guarantee, Tang Dao actually already knew what I was thinking. Didn't you read what he said in the guarantee? How many cavalry are lent to him, he must be the original number Return it! That means I can rest assured that he will definitely use the good sword of our cavalry battalion directly under the military headquarters and will never let them sacrifice easily. Even if they are sacrificed in the battle, he will make up for the cavalry. .

This can be regarded as him helping our 67th Army to raise these more than 100 cavalry. After all, the huge consumption of this cavalry is not a small amount! Comrade Lao Wu chuckled.

The colonel's adjutant was speechless. This kind of competition between extremely intelligent human beings was indeed beyond what an ordinary mortal like him could guess.

"Of course, this doesn't mean I cheated him by pretending to be drunk. After all, when he goes to the northern battlefield, the cavalry is a necessary unit. He doesn't need to spend time and invest heavily. Our 67th Army Cavalry Battalion is a real-time combatant. It's mutual benefit!” Comrade Lao Wu said with emotion. "However, this guy Tang Dao still did us a big favor by pretending to be confused."

"Military, no matter what, you still gave him a huge help. With that receipt worth ten thousand gold, Commander Tang will not be at a loss!" The colonel's adjutant thought for a while, but after all he was still a little unconvinced.

This kind of thing of giving to the troops and asking for favors would probably be a bit difficult for anyone else.

“That receipt! I have given Tang Dao little baby a huge benefit, but I have also given him a huge problem!” Perhaps he had known that his adjutant would answer this way, so Comrade Old Wu glanced behind him. "Let me ask you, if it were you, would you be able to transport that batch of arms out of the concession warehouse?"

After a while, the colonel's adjutant shook his head. "No, ever since I learned about this batch of arms, I have been thinking about it day and night, let alone how to transport it. Just the remaining 1 million U.S. dollars, I don't even know where it came from. Our 67th Army's annual supply The military expenditure is only 1.5 million silver dollars, which means our whole army will be deprived of food and water for three years. "

"So! If we can't solve it, we can only leave it to him." Comrade Lao Wu said with a smile.

As if he knew what the adjutant was thinking, without waiting for him to speak, Comrade Lao Wu closed his eyes and said, "You don't have to ask me if he can do it. If there are still two or three people in the world who can do it, then Tang Dao must be the one who can do it." one of them."

That is no longer the so-called appreciation, but absolute affirmation and trust in Tang Dao's ability.

Si Xing Tuan Headquarters!

Compared to the question-and-answer questions answered by Comrade Wu and his confidants in the truck, the Sixings Regiment Headquarters was filled with cheers.

Tang Dao did not hide it from Guo Shouzhi and Leng Feng, and showed them the poisonous pie left by Comrade Old Wu. It was the largest fortune owned by the Four Elements Group at present. Although it looked like a mirror, in fact, anyone with some sense could see it. You know, just this receipt, even if it is discounted by half and thrown out, a lot of people will rush to get it.

The most indispensable kind of people in the world are gamblers. If you take a chance and turn your bicycle into a motorcycle, you might be able to get back this dazzling batch of arms, right?

Of course, Tang Dao also used this to express his attitude. The Four Elements Group was not his Tang Dao's one-person group, but belonged to everyone. Although the two battalion-level chief officers did not serve in the regiment headquarters, they were also high-level officials in the regiment who could participate in decision-making. , and completely appeased the last bit of grievance in Guo Shouzhi's heart.

Regarding the cavalry battalion that fell from the sky, Zhuang Shisan, who was good at calculation, had doubts: "Regiment leader, this cavalry is very expensive. We don't have that much equipment to support it for a long time!"

"I have my own way to solve these problems, and they will be solved soon." Tang Dao smiled slightly, but he no longer struggled with this matter.

“Tomorrow, Lao Zhuang, you and Battalion Commander Leng will prepare, take the cavalry platoon and a baggage platoon, and accompany me to Xuzhou first!”

PS: Today my little girl bumped into a car while riding an electric scooter, and Fengyue rushed to deal with it. She worked on it all afternoon and half of the night, and didn't rush home until after 9 o'clock. I just finished writing the last 2,000 words, two chapters in one.
