Li Zongren came back not long after he left the office. He looked as amiable as the neighbor next door.
"Now, the call has been made just now, and in addition to the Military Command Department, I also called the Military and Political Department." Li Zongren came in and sat on the chair and said.
Then, Li Zongren said: "Not to mention, Minister He has a very good impression of Commander Zhang. Just now, Minister He also said that Commander Zhang is a good fighter, and the Third War Zone under his command is directly responsible for The first group was also very good.”
Zhang Tianhai originally felt extremely guilty about disobeying orders on the battlefield. When Li Zongren said this, he felt even more guilty - after all, disobeying orders on the battlefield was a serious crime of beheading. Since he was from Huangpu, he might be exempted from the crime. Once dead, but there is absolutely no escape from the sin of living.
Most people don't like "trouble", and Zhang Tianhai is no exception. At this critical moment, he is even more afraid of trouble.
Fortunately, the special operations psychology he had learned in the military academy in his previous life had greatly enhanced his mental endurance. If it had been any other young man, he would have been unable to withstand this kind of pressure.
"Thanks to the misplaced love, sir, Zhang Yulin is just a warrior. Apart from leading troops to charge into battle, he can't do anything else. To put it bluntly, he is just a reckless man." Zhang Tianhai said with an embarrassed smile. But no matter how you look at it, there is a very hollow feeling in his smile.
"Then does your army still have any difficulties that need help?" Li Zongren asked in a very easy-going manner.
"Yes, there is no place where our troops can be stationed. In addition, our regiment is a reinforced regiment, with a total of more than 3,500 people." Zhang Tianhai said truthfully.
"Okay, I'll send someone to arrange a garrison area for your regiment later." Li Zongren said very cheerfully.
"Thank you, sir." Zhang Tianhai stood up and said.
Li Zongren waved his hand and said: "You're welcome. This time, the Japanese troops in North China are moving southward in heavy numbers. The Japanese troops in Central China are also fighting with the troops in the Third War Zone of Chief Gu in the direction of Chuzhou. At such a critical moment, you will inevitably have to go into battle and fight a tough battle. .”
"Yes, if our regiment can be transferred to the fifth theater and come under the jurisdiction of the superior, as long as the superior gives the order, I will be directly subordinate to the first regiment, which is inferior to my inferior position. I will never complain and will only fight the Japanese invaders to the end!" Zhang Tianhai stood up again to show his determination, and so did Guo Qiliang.
At this moment, the phone in the office rang. Just when Zhang Tianhai and Guo Qiliang were about to go out for a while, Li Zongren motioned for them to sit and wait.
"Hello, this is Li Zongren." Li Zongren directly picked up the phone and said.
I just heard a familiar voice coming from the other side of the phone: "Hello, brother De Lin, I am He Yingqin. Both the Military and Political Department and the Military Command Department have approved the application to temporarily second the First Regiment directly under the Third Theater to the Fifth Theater. Until the central government issues new orders, this regiment will belong to the order of battle in your theater. However, the unit number will remain unchanged."
After hearing what He Yingqin said, Li Zongren didn't show too much excitement. He just said "Yeah" and then said: "Thank you, brother Jingzhi. I will definitely use this regiment in a good place."
After hearing Li Zongren's reply, could Zhang Tianhai not understand what was going on? The designation was successful.
But what Zhang Tianhai never expected was that the other end of the phone actually said to Li Zongren: "This is not a big problem. By the way, is that boy Zhang Yulin still with you?"
"Yes." Li Zongren said truthfully.
"Then please help me, brother De Lin, to ask this guy to come over and answer the phone." He Yingqin's voice was still very kind and like a spring breeze.
"Okay, wait a minute." After saying that, Li Zongren covered the phone's mouthpiece and said, "Captain Zhang, Minister He asked you to come over and answer the phone."
"Yes!" Zhang Tianhai responded. On the surface, he seemed as stable as an old dog, but in fact, he was panicking.
The orders of the chief cannot be violated. Anyway, it will be a knife if it is late, and it will be a knife if it is early. If you die early, you will be reborn.
So, with such a mentality, Zhang Tianhai went to take the extremely hot phone in Li Zongren's hand: "Report to the superintendent, students are ordered to come and report to you!"
"Well, Zhang Yulin, you are quite a good boy. I heard that during the breakout battle, you killed many Japanese and rescued the third tank company of the Armored Corps. Is this true?" He Yingqin's words He didn't mean to challenge anyone, but he was very kind.
It was this kind of kindness that made Zhang Tianhai feel very uncomfortable. If Minister He had criticized him directly, nothing would have happened to him.
"It's true, Director of Education." Zhang Tianhai could only tell the truth. Since Minister He had already asked about this, he must have known the whole process.
Alas, it's a blessing, not a curse, it's a curse that can't be avoided... Zhang Tianhai sighed in his heart.
"You did a good job. You also saved more than 3,000 civilians. These battles were indeed fought well and caused a certain amount of damage to the Japanese army. In view of these achievements, I will not pursue your disobedience on the battlefield, but the premise is that it will not be the case again. ." He Yingqin said in a deep voice.
"Yes, Director of Education, students promise not to do this again!" Zhang Tianhai had already heard He Yingqin's dissatisfaction, so he quickly promised.
On the other end of the phone, He Yingqin nodded slightly and asked, "What do you plan to do with Zhao Huzhen's chariot company?"
"Report to the director of education. The decision of the student's plan will be made by the director of education." Zhang Tianhai's back was already covered in cold sweat. How could there be any room for bargaining at this time? As for Zhao Huzhen's chariot company replacing the artillery battalion, don't even think about it. He didn't get covered in shit, which was already pretty good.
"Well, very good, I guess you are wise. Just return Zhao Huzhen's company to the armored corps! Of course, you have worked hard and finally accumulated so much wealth, so I won't treat you badly. I have sent an order to allocate an eight-gun artillery battalion to your regiment. One cannon is exchanged for a tank. Generally speaking, it is kind of generous, right?" He Yingqin's words seemed to be easy to talk to, but his tone was full of confusion. Full of no room for rejection.
"Quite kind, quite kind." Zhang Tianhai responded repeatedly. This was a huge surprise for him - originally he thought that not only the artillery battalion was useless, but also the tank company was useless. , but He Yingqin said that he would be given an artillery camp. Isn't this a surprise?
"Besides, do you have anything else you want to say?" He Yingqin asked. In fact, he still prefers Zhang Tianhai, a student who can lead troops and fight, but he must not develop a disobedient spirit. , otherwise it will kill him sooner or later.
"Thank you, Chief of Education. In addition, the students are also planning to make a slight adjustment to the appointment within the group. I hope the Chief of Education can approve it." Zhang Tianhai said quickly, lest He Yingqin would not admit it after he passed.
"It's not a problem to adjust the appointment. You can just report directly to Commander Li, the commander of the fifth theater. Stop bothering me with such nonsense. In addition, the artillery battalion assigned to you is fully equipped with Japanese equipment. The inventory of the 75mm-caliber Type 38 field artillery in the Fifth Theater is also limited, so it can’t give you too many shells. If you want the shells, you have to capture them yourself.” He Yingqin did not follow Zhang Tianhai’s detours and directly sent these shells. After all, he put as much rice as the pot has. Besides, he also wanted to see how far Zhang Tianhai could do it.
"Yes, thank you, Chief of Education. The students must have lived up to the expectations of the Chief of Education. They killed the enemy bravely and returned with their bodies wrapped in horse leather!" Zhang Tianhai's thanks came from the bottom of his heart. After all, the chariot was in his hands. It was tasteless and was a pity to throw away. The key was that it had an unfair name and was not as enjoyable as a field artillery camp.
"Okay, you must take those eight German tanks to Xuzhou Railway Station before ten o'clock tomorrow morning. I will send someone to take them over." He Yingqin ordered.
"Yes!" Zhang Tianhai responded, and only he knew the joy in his heart.
"Let Chief Li answer the phone. I have some things to tell him." He Yingqin directly issued an eviction order.
"Yes!" Zhang Tianhai responded, quickly handed the phone to Li Zongren, and then returned to his seat as if he was fleeing.
