After walking back to the room at the regiment headquarters, Zhang Tianhai locked himself in the room and refused to leave.
In the room, the gentle breath from last night was still there, and the little plum blossom prints on the sheets had been cut off. Zheng Man must have cut them off and treasured them.
Sitting on the desk in the room, Zhang Tianhai gently rubbed his temples with his fingers. The tobacco from his cigarette was burning. His mind was empty and he didn't know what he was thinking about.
About an hour later, there was a knock on Zhang Tianhai's door.
"Tuk-tuk-tuk-tuk-tuk-tuk."
Zhang Tianhai shook his head, which was a little dizzy, and then went to open the door. Zheng Man walked in with a plate of food. In addition to a bowl of hot rice, there was also a bowl of green vegetables, with a few thin pieces of fat on top of the green vegetables. Slices of meat.
Seeing these delicious meals, Zhang Tianhai remembered that lunch time had already passed, and his eyes were slightly moist: This is what happiness looks like when someone cares and cares about you. After working hard to perform a mission, you can still... Someone brings you a plate of hot food.
This feeling reminded Zhang Tianhai of the TV series "Battle of Changsha" he had watched in his previous life. At this moment, he seemed to finally understand why his brother-in-law Xue Junshan, who was an orphan and a gangster, had to risk his life to protect Zhou Quan, the youngest member of the Hu family, because as long as Hu Xiangjun is still here, and the Hu family is his home, a home that he will work hard to support.
"Eat. I saw that you came back from outside at almost two o'clock, so I thought you must not have eaten yet, so I went to the cooking class to get you some hot food. It's cold now, so eat quickly. !" With that said, Zheng Man walked into Zhang Tianhai's room carrying the plate of hot food.
"Okay, you can put it on my desk!" Zhang Tianhai said softly. Seeing that Zheng Man was still walking unnaturally, he felt a little guilty and a little distressed.
After putting the food on the table, Zheng Man picked up the rice paper on which Zhang Tianhai had just finished writing. She saw dragons and phoenixes dancing on the paper, and the handwriting was very beautiful. It was standard regular script. After picking up the paper, she gently I started to read: "The Qin Dynasty is bright and the moon is at the Han Dynasty, and the people who have marched thousands of miles have not returned. But the flying generals of Dragon City are here, and they don't teach Hu Ma to cross the Yin Mountains. Hey, Zhang Yulin, I didn't expect that your pen calligraphy is quite beautiful. Why."
"That's it!" Zhang Tianhai walked over and sat down with a smile, then hugged Zheng Man.
The food is delicious and the people are beautiful.
…
Two hours later, the staff officer of the Communications Office received a telegram from the division headquarters.
The content of the telegram roughly stated that the Japanese troops in Jurong had already moved out, and the entire division must be ready for battle and be ready to join the battle to defend Nanjing at any time.
After receiving the order, Zhang Tianhai immediately issued a first-level combat readiness order. After that, he could only wait for orders from his superiors.
"Yulin, should we go down to inspect the situation of the troops now? Although our regiment is basically a reinforced regiment composed of veterans, most of our cadres are still relatively inexperienced, especially the company and platoon cadres, who are basically the original platoon cadres. The captain and squad leader were promoted. We have been eager to train our combat effectiveness during this period. As for the political work, although the political training section has Chief He Jiyehe, I still feel a little uneasy." Chief of Staff Guo Qiliang suggested.
"Okay, let's inspect the Fourth Battalion first and see what Wang Yongcheng's side has done for me now." Zhang Tianhai immediately decided to inspect the troops, starting with the Fourth Battalion.
As for why he started the inspection from the Fourth Battalion, the reason was simple. He didn’t know Wang Yongcheng well enough. At that time, he was appointed as the battalion commander purely because Huangpu students were not enough. As long as there is still a Central Ninth or Tenth Phase, Zhang Tianhai They won't promote him.
In the past ten days, Zhang Tianhai not only taught each company the essentials of shooting and correct training methods, he also gathered the company commanders together and held an extremely short training course on company-level tactical command. He, Guo Qiliang and Li Chunfei served as instructors in the training class.
There is no doubt about Zhang Tianhai's academic level. After all, he has been systematically studied and trained in the 21st century. In addition, he is the company commander of the Marine Corps Brigade's Sharp Sword Company. In terms of company-level command, the entire thirty-six No teacher can find anyone with a higher level than him.
As for Guo Qiliang, his level of staff work is quite high. He can teach the company commanders who lack basic knowledge in this aspect. As for Li Chunfei, it is purely because Zhang Tianhai feels that this boy has the same temperament and personality as him. , we should teach these company commanders how to "show their swords when meeting the enemy".
There is nothing we can do about it. Who caused this new regiment to have a serious shortage of cadres when it was first established? You know, before the Thirty-sixth Division entered the war, even the platoon commanders were from the ninth phase of the Central Military Academy. People like them who were from the seventh phase of Huangpu were still serving as small company commanders there?
So, in the past ten days, in addition to the people from the Communications Office, there were twelve infantry company commanders and four machine gun company commanders from these four combat battalions, plus military police, special agents, small artillery, and other personnel from the troops directly under the regiment headquarters. The commander of the fourth mortar company and even the commander of the logistics supply company were also taken to attend classes.
There were twenty-one companies in total. Except for the logistics supply company, which had no guns, all the others were fully staffed companies. Zhang Tianhai couldn't help but feel inflated.
Well, if the quality of the officers was not up to standard, and if the quality of the officers was the same as before the war of the Thirty-sixth Division, Zhang Tianhai would dare to lead the first regiment directly under him to defend the enemy's entire regiment head-on.
The fourth battalion is also stationed not far from the regiment headquarters. As it stands now, soldiers of a squad basically live in one room, officers and soldiers of a platoon live in a small courtyard, a company is stationed in a courtyard, and a battalion is stationed in an area. , which can be considered relatively dense.
"Hello, Captain!"
"Hello, Captain!"
"Duanzao!"
After entering the Fourth Battalion, Zhang Tianhai was greeted by the salutes of soldiers or officers at the checkpoints one after another. He almost lost himself in the "Hello, Captain" and "Team Seat"... Ahem, I digress.
In response to these salutes, Zhang Tianhai just nodded slightly, and then observed their standing postures, alertness, and the distribution of various checkpoints.
Walking into the fourth battalion headquarters, Wang Yongcheng was convening the company commanders for a meeting.
After seeing Zhang Tianhai and Guo Qiliang come in, Wang Yongcheng and the four company commanders immediately stood at attention and saluted: "Hello, commander! Hello, chief of staff!"
"Hello everyone, I came here uninvited this time. Did I disturb your meeting?" After walking into the gate of the battalion headquarters, Zhang Tianhai ran directly to the conference table.
Wang Yongcheng was also a very discerning person. When he saw Zhang Tianhai approaching, he quickly gave up his seat and then reported: "Report to the regiment, it's nothing. I am preparing for the first-level combat readiness order under the regiment." . In addition, on behalf of the officers and soldiers of the fourth battalion, I welcome the regiment to inspect the troops!"
"Okay, this time I am here not only to review the training of your troops, but also to tell you personally that the Japanese invaders are approaching Nanjing today. If the commander of the regiment is not wrong in his prediction, starting tomorrow morning, the Japanese army will Launch a general attack on the outer positions of Nanjing." Zhang Tianhai paused, and then continued: "Everyone, the time has come for you to fulfill your military commitments. If the battle starts, please be mentally prepared to fight with the Japanese army at any time with our regiment commander. Fight to the death!"
Zhang Tianhai's tone was murderous, and everyone could hear the fighting spirit in the group's words. If anyone was fooled, they would be shot immediately!
"I am willing to follow the regiment and fight to the death against the Japanese invaders!" Five officers of the fourth battalion, including Wang Yongcheng, stood at attention and responded in unison.
After feeling their morale, Zhang Tianhai nodded slightly, and then said: "Okay, since you have this determination, I believe in you. But I still want to take a look at the troops you brought me. What I need is a A roaring army!"
