"Ah? Are you the commander of the Ninth Company?" Liu Jin was stunned.
"Do you have any objections?" Under the sky-high ponytail, a pair of clear big eyes stared at Liu Jin with a look of disdain.
"No, oops, I didn't expect this!" Liu Jin stepped forward quickly and saluted without any doubt.
In his heart, the Eighth Route Army soldiers would definitely not lie to their own people! Simple!
During the Long March, regimental commanders who were eighteen or nineteen years old were everywhere. Although the girl was young, she came from the division. Although she was young, it seemed that it was not impossible to become a company commander.
They were old acquaintances, but the six-pound squad leader, who had only met twice in the past few years and was two levels lower, almost burst into tears.
The two were enthusiastic for a long time, and then asked again and again: "You are really the company commander, didn't you say that Hu Yi is the company commander?"
"He? He often makes mistakes. He is injured now. I am the company commander." The answerer was proud.
Listener Satisfaction: It turns out to be a vice.
Thinking of this, Liujin hurriedly stretched out his hand to make an invitation: "Look...our company commander invites you to come over..."
"Are you bothered? Ask him to come by himself if he has something to do. My aunt is so tired from walking such a long way, so ask him to come over!" Xiao Hongying stuffed a handful of fried noodles into her mouth and filled the kettle with water.
"Okay, I'll go back and invite you right away!" The squad leader acted as the correspondent himself, but he didn't even invite a deputy company commander from the independent regiment.
This Ninth Company is really awesome. If it weren't for the huge amount of bullets and scarce machine guns, the Secret Service Company wouldn't bother to deal with this group of remnants.
Liu Jin turned around and ran away.
"Where did the secret agent company come from?" Hu Yi, who was lying on the cushions of several packs on the mule, asked with his eyes closed.
"It's a long story!"
"how long."
"very long!"
"Uh...well, long story short."
"To talk about the secret service company, we must first talk about the secret service regiment!"
"Is there still a special agent team?" Hu Yi heard the sound of footsteps again and opened his slender eyes.
"Of course!" Political Commissar Ding, who had just returned, answered the question. He looked around at the soldiers of the Ninth Company who had gathered around him, and began to tell: "The Headquarters Secret Service was formerly the Central Military Commission Secret Service of the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, a force from Jinggangshan. Old Red Army troops. In August 28, after Mao commanded the 28th Red Regiment to defeat Liu Shiyi's unit of the enemy's 7th Independent Division in southern Jiangxi, 126 people from Yan Zhongru's unit of the Hunan enemy stationed in eastern Guangxi rebelled and surrendered. Mao regarded these uprising personnel as Based on this, the Fourth Red Army spy battalion was established, with the battalion commander Bi Zhanyun.
In the spring of 29, because the battalion was full of surrendered personnel, in order to change the composition of the battalion, except for retaining some battalion and company cadres and backbones, all other personnel were transferred out. A group of old Red Army soldiers were also transferred from the Fourth Red Army to enrich the company, and the company was renamed It is a guard camp of the Central Military Commission.
In 1933, the headquarters was streamlined and the guard battalion was abolished. The original three companies were reduced to one company each for guard and air defense.
In August 1934, it was expanded into the "Guard Battalion of the Central Military Commission of the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army" in Ruijin. The first company was mainly responsible for the security tasks of leaders such as Mao, Zhou, and Zhu.
In June 1935, after the Central Red Army and the Fourth Red Army joined forces, the Red Army divided into left and right armies and headed north. The guard battalion headquarters and the second and third companies were ordered to stay behind on the way north to take on the task of ensuring the troops' safe passage through the Maba Snow Mountain Plank Road. , and later incorporated into the Ninth Red Army Corps. The first company and battalion engineer platoon continued northward with the Military Commission and reached northern Shaanxi.
In November 1935, based on the 1st Company of the Guard Battalion, it was expanded into the "Central Military Commission Special Agent Group of the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army" with jurisdiction over 4 companies. The 1st Red Company, the Teaching Company directly under the Central Military Commission, and the Youth Company of the 15th Red Army Corps were changed into the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Companies in turn. , the artillery battalions of the 1st and 3rd Red Army Corps were downsized into the artillery company of the regiment. The original guard battalion engineer platoon was reorganized into the artillery company, and the first regiment commander and political commissar Qiu Chuangcheng was appointed.
During the Eastern Expedition in April 1936, during the journey in Shanxi, he joined three companies of the Independent Regiment of the First Army to form the "Guard Regiment of the Former Enemy General Headquarters of the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army", which had five infantry companies and two directly affiliated companies. The leader was Zeng Baotang and the political commissar Qiu Chuangcheng.
In February 1937, in order to strengthen the protection of the Party Central Committee and the Central Military Commission headquarters, the guard regiment was expanded into a large regiment in Yunyang Town, Sanyuan County, Shaanxi Province, and three battalions were established, with a total of nine infantry companies and four directly affiliated companies. . Regiment leader Zhu Shuiqiu, political commissar Qiu Chuangcheng, chief of staff Liu Xinglong, and director of the political department Xiao Wenjiu are responsible for the internal security tasks of the headquarters.
In August 1937, the Red Army was reorganized into the Eighth Route Army. The guard regiment was renamed the "Special Agent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army Headquarters of the National Revolutionary Army." Upon arrival, Xiao Wenjiu, director of the Political Training Department.
On September 15, the Eighth Route Army was dispatched to fight against Japan. In order to strengthen the strength of the 120th Division, the 1st Battalion of the Headquarters Special Agent Regiment was transferred to the 120th Division. The main force crossed the Yellow River and arrived at Wutai, Shanxi Province on the 20th. After the victory in the Pingxingguan battle, Commander-in-Chief Zhu decided to transfer the agencies and the 4th, 5th, 7th, and 9th companies of the Secret Service Regiment to Nie's command, in accordance with Mao's instructions on establishing a base area based on Taihang Mountain, and coordinated with the 115th Division Cavalry Battalion and other units. Guerrilla warfare was carried out in northeastern Shanxi and the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Anti-Japanese Base Area was established. Qiu Chuangcheng led the regiment's artillery company to Linfen to form an artillery regiment.
The headquarters led the 6th and 8th companies left behind by the special agent group, led by 2nd Battalion Commander Ou Zhifu, and went south to southeastern Shanxi Province. On December 30, they entered Mamu Town, Hongdong County. That is, the special agent group was rebuilt based on the remaining companies and would be transferred from Shanxi Province. The 850 people from the Anti-Japanese Self-Defense Forces, Shanxi-Taiwan Railway Guerrilla Force and those who returned from the West Route Army of the Fourth Front Army from Xiaoyi served as the basic backbone of the regiment. Including some of the local recruits, it was expanded into a large regiment under the "three-three system", with 3 battalions, 9 infantry companies, 3 directly affiliated companies, and 3 battalions with machine gun platoons, totaling more than 2,300 people. Acting leader Huang Huxian, political commissar Xie Zhenhua, chief of staff Yin Xianbing, and director of the political department Li Zhiming. Soon Yin Xianbing and Li Zhiming took over as regimental commanders and political commissars, and Ou Zhifu took over as chief of staff.
From August to December 1938, the regiment and its headquarters were stationed in Xiangyuan County for training. During this period, in order to strengthen the military and political figures of the army, Ou Zhifu led two companies of recruits in exchange for two Red Army companies, the 2nd company of the guard battalion of the 115th division and the 686th regiment guard company).
In May 1939, deputy commander Ou Zhifu led the 3rd Battalion to Taiyue District to carry out guerrilla warfare and reorganized the 3rd Battalion.
In September, it was transferred back to its original organization and reorganized into the 4th Battalion. Later it was sent to defend the Lianggou Arsenal and was renamed the Lianggou Garrison Brigade. During this period, Cao Guanglin served as political commissar of the regiment and Li Dongxiang acted as regimental leader.
In December, Ou Zhifu was appointed head of the headquarters' special task force.
In October 1940, the 4th and 7th companies of the Special Agent Regiment were merged into the 4th company, forming a battalion machine gun company, with 14 companies in the entire regiment.
One of them is the company that protects the division headquarters! "
Political Commissar Ding explained the glorious origins of the secret service in one breath. He regarded it as an ideological and political education for the Ninth Company. He took off the water bottle he carried with him and slowly poured it into his mouth.
"Then are they very powerful?" Xu Xiao looked up at the political commissar and asked sheepishly as the soldiers listened in rapt memory.
"Does any of you have better marksmanship than this girl?" Ding De reached out and touched Xu Xiao's head and said with a smile.
"Are they all so powerful?" It was Chen Chong who asked.
"That's not entirely true. However, the soldiers of the special agent company each have their own strengths. They mainly do security work, so many of our comrades don't know how effective they are in combat."
"I think that fighting depends on command, and personal ability is not the most important. No matter how good he is with the sword, can he defeat the Japanese cannons or defeat the Japanese planes?" Seeing the political commissar's kindness, a soldier from the Tang Dynasty's dog class couldn't help but raise his voice. ask.
Another one was even more curious: "They say the Eighth Route Army can go to heaven and earth. Is it true?"
"Of course it's true!" The reply came from the outside of the Nine Company who were gathered in a group and listened in fascination.
