The deputy commander-in-chief originally thought that Shen Quan would ask him for a stronger development policy. After all, the New Regiment had previously had a special policy of developing independently and not having to hand over the materials it received within a short period of time.
But no one thought that Shen Quan would actually want to Shangguan Yufei!
Shen Quan continued to speak: "Chief, for an outstanding comrade like Shangguan Yufei, she cannot be the only one in the headquarters. I have won such a big victory and developed the New Regiment so well, all it takes is one person. This That’s not too much to ask for, right?”
"Besides, you said just now, Chief, that as long as it complies with the system, you will definitely agree. I want to be promoted to Comrade Yu Fei. This does not violate our system."
Shen Quan finished speaking in one breath and directly blocked the deputy commander's escape route.
Seeing Shen Quan's shameless act, the deputy commander couldn't laugh or cry.
"Commander, I am also a soldier under your command. Please stand up and say something fair for me. I am not asking too much!"
The division commander who was suddenly called out didn't know what to say for a moment. He could only reply vaguely: "Chen Quan, your request is not excessive in principle, but the commander also has the commander's considerations. You are my soldier, and I They are also the commander’s soldiers!”
Logically speaking, Shen Quan's request was extremely easy.
It's just that the deputy commander-in-chief really couldn't bear to part with Shangguan Yufei, a talented code-breaker.
During war, soldiers are easy to find, but talents are rare!
As a result, the entire audience focused their attention on the deputy commander-in-chief, looking forward to his answer.
The deputy commander-in-chief was also very smart and did not immediately change his mind. Instead, he turned the topic to Shangguan Yufei himself and said, "Comrade Shangguan, what do you think? I intend to listen to your opinion on this matter."
Everyone here is not a thousand-year-old fox, and no one can even think about playing Liaozhai.
Although Shangguan Yufei is a lesbian, he immediately saw through the deputy commander-in-chief's scheme and replied officially on the spot: "I personally follow the organization's arrangements!"
The deputy commander retorted: "Comrade Shangguan, don't put any pressure on you. Regarding your work issues, I still have to respect your personal opinions instead of blind obedience."
At this point, Shangguan Yufei could no longer be polite.
To be honest, Shangguan Yufei really wanted to go to the New Regiment, because during those few days in the New Regiment, she saw a resistance team like a blazing prairie fire, and the hero Shen Quan.
When he was in Xinyi Tuan, Shangguan Yufei not only took a fancy to Xinyi Tuan, but also fell in love with Shen Quan. Apart from work, he also had a secret hidden affection.
So no matter from which perspective, Shangguan Yufei is absolutely willing to go to the New Regiment.
After hesitating for a moment, Shangguan Yufei stood up and said: "Report to the leader, I am willing to go to the new regiment to help Commander Shen Quan with the intelligence work of the front-line combat team."
Hearing this, Shen Quan was the first to applaud enthusiastically, and the other leaders followed suit.
"Great, Comrade Shangguan, on behalf of the New Regiment, I warmly welcome you to join. You have lived up to the New Regiment, and the New Regiment will definitely not let you down!"
Immediately, Shen Quan turned around and saluted the deputy commander in chief: "Chief, Comrade Shangguan has already expressed his stance, please give her to our new regiment. I promise to give you and all the leaders present a huge surprise! "
surprise?
The deputy commander's deep eyes suddenly brightened.
When the new regiment was given the policy of independent development, in less than a year, Shen Quan developed a team of dozens of people into a super reinforced regiment of tens of thousands.
Now he said that he was going to give him a big surprise, which made the deputy commander's heart beat wildly.
The two sang in harmony, and the deputy commander could no longer refuse. He started by saying: "You really have a way. Since I promised to reward you, and Comrade Shangguan himself is willing to go to the new regiment, I will make an exception and send this person to the new regiment." The secret code deciphering expert has given you a new group."
"As for the surprise you mentioned, it doesn't matter if there is one or not, as long as you don't scare me!"
Although he said this, the deputy commander-in-chief was still looking forward to what kind of surprises Shangguan Yu Fei would bring when he joined the new regiment.
This is something to look forward to.
After getting the approval, Shen Quan vowed: "Don't worry, chief. I will definitely give you a big surprise then. You can just wait for my good news at the headquarters."
Shen Quan did not talk empty words. Now that the New Regiment has reorganized the intelligence department into the Civil Affairs Bureau, under the leadership of Yu Zecheng, relying on an intelligence network composed of county brigades, district teams, and comrades from all over the ground, they are constantly Expand to the entire northwestern Shanxi.
A single tree cannot make a forest. Although the Civil Affairs Bureau has core and cutting-edge figures like Yu Zecheng, it still needs a top code deciphering expert to obtain more intelligence information.
Shangguan Yufei is just such a talent!
However, Shen Quan has not yet informed the deputy commander-in-chief of the formation of the Bureau of Civil Statistics. After all, if this kind of department is to have certain effects, it requires long-term development. Whether it will succeed in the end is another matter.
Therefore, Shen Quan decided to wait until the new regiment of the Civil Unification Bureau spread throughout northwestern Shanxi before telling the heads of the headquarters.
Afterwards, the deputy commander arranged for Shen Quan and Monk Wei to rest.
Early the next morning, Shen Quan sat down to have dinner with several leaders. In order to welcome Shen Quan who had come from afar, the deputy commander-in-chief used his own allowance to have the cooking team cook a pot of braised pork, and the general staff contributed two bottles of Fenjiu. , another delicious meal.
After three rounds of wine and five delicious dishes, they began to chat about the upcoming situation of the Anti-Japanese War in the early morning.
Although Shen Quan is only a group leader, in the eyes of the leaders, he is regarded as a close and intimate friend, and there is no deep hierarchy of leadership.
If it weren't for the influence on the team, the deputy commander would have wanted to call Shen Quan "brother."
After dinner, Shen Quan took Shangguan Yufei and Monk Wei and prepared to return home.
door.
The deputy commander reluctantly held Shen Quan's hand and said, "You boy, do a good job and beat me up hard. Don't let me down!"
Shen Quan felt warm in his heart: "Please rest assured, chief, Xinyi Tuan and I will definitely remember the chief's instructions and seize every available opportunity to beat up the little devil."
Then, the deputy commander looked at Shangguan Yu Fei and said: "Shangguan, if you are wronged in the New Regiment, write a letter to me, and I will send someone to pick you up in the New Regiment. You will always be here. s home."
Shangguan Yufei also had red eyes: "Yeah, thank you, chief!"
The division commander on the side joked with the general staff: "Hahaha, do you think this scene looks like an old man marrying his daughter?"
"I think it looks like it!"
Although the conversation between the two was very quiet, it still could not escape Shen Quan's ears.
Shen Quan also had strange feelings for Shangguan Yufei, but it was during the Anti-Japanese War and he had no intention of thinking about anything other than fighting the Japanese.
Just when Shen Quan was about to leave, the deputy commander waved his hand, and the guard on the side came over with a brand new military coat and handed it to Shen Quan.
"To be honest, the conditions of our Eighth Route Army are much worse than those of the National Army. You have won many battles, so I have nothing to give you. This military coat was given to me by the commander-in-chief of the First Army when I went to Ting'an to study. It was given to me, and now I give it to you, consider it a special reward for you."
In this chaotic era when people don't have enough to eat or wear warm clothes, military coats that can withstand the cold have become clothes that many people long for.
The origin of this military coat is so important. Now giving it to Shen Quan can be regarded as an exclusive favor for Shen Quan. If the commanders of other regiments in northern Shanxi knew about it, they would definitely say that the commander was partial.
But there is no way, Shen Quan's achievements are worthy of this old leader who is over fifty years old.
The division commander on the side said with envy: "Chen Quan, Chen Quan, you are so lucky. Normally the commander would not let us touch this military coat, but now it is given to you. You will make a lot of money."
Taking over the brand new military coat, Shen Quan said proudly: "Hehehehe, Commander, you must be envious!"
"Hey, you kid, you actually dare to mock your superiors!"
"Everyone, leaders, we say goodbye. I don't know when we will see each other again. Please wait patiently. I will definitely lead the new regiment to win greater battles and kill more Japanese. I will never disappoint the sincere entrustment of all leaders."
"Okay, we are waiting for your good news!"
The few people had a heart-to-heart talk, and finally parted ways. The deputy commander-in-chief looked at the backs of Shen Quan and Shangguan Yu Fei riding away, and a tear fell from the corner of his eye unknowingly.
When he just turned around, the deputy commander suddenly felt something was stuck on his cuff. When he raised his hand, he saw that it was a brand new Parker pen.
Just when Shen Quan and the deputy commander hugged each other and separated, Shen Quan took the opportunity to pin the pen on the chief's cuff as a return gift to the deputy commander.
He found this pen when he went to Feihuling to recruit people. When Shen Quan came to the headquarters for the first time, the deputy commander-in-chief gave him a pen for his own use.
Now, Shen Quan has also given the chief a brand new Parker pen, which can be regarded as a return favor to the deputy commander-in-chief.
"This boy, give me such a little surprise!" Looking at the pen in his hand, the deputy commander couldn't hold back his tears any longer.
…
In the evening, it was already past seven o'clock when Shen Quan and others returned to Qingyang Town. It was completely dark and they could not see their fingers.
In the following time, the New Regiment continued to recruit troops, and on the other hand, under the direct leadership of Shen Quan, it quickly spread the intelligence network of the Civil Affairs Bureau throughout northwest Shanxi.
After possessing the Japs codebook copying model and Shangguan Yufei, an expert in deciphering secret messages, Shen Quan also gradually mastered more of the Japs' military developments.
In modern warfare, in addition to the superiority of weapons, the superiority of intelligence often determines the outcome of a battle.
As long as careful deployment of military operations is mastered, even if there are several times differences in military strength and weapon configuration between the two sides, they can win in difficult situations.
This is why Shen Quan worked hard to develop intelligence.
