"It seems that the troops led by Zhou Fangjie are quite good this time. They seem to be very energetic." As he spoke, Zhang Tianhai couldn't stop nodding.
For Zhang Tianhai, the backbone of the Second Guard Regiment are also from the First Guard Regiment. It can be said that the Second Guard Regiment is a replica of the First Guard Regiment. This cannot but give him a sense of intimacy, looking at the guards The second regiment is like looking at its own troops.
Yes, it's just like looking at your own troops, as if you are the brigade commander and this is just one of the regiments.
"Report to Commander Zhang, Commander Zhou, please come in!" A guard ran forward and reported.
"Captain Zhang, please!" With that said, the platoon leader signaled for everyone to open the gate.
With the roar of cars, a military Jeep off-road vehicle sped in.
Zhou Fangjie's regiment headquarters was set up on the side near the gate, so it didn't take long for them to reach the headquarters of the second guard regiment.
It was a typical small bungalow that looked full of European style. It was all white, and with the guards standing at the door and a blue sky and white sun badge hanging on the front of the building, it looked so serious.
When Zhang Tianhai's car stopped at the door, Zhou Fangjie was already waiting there with two officers. Zhang Tianhai took a closer look. One was a lieutenant colonel and the other was a captain. If he guessed correctly, the former was a staff officer. Chief, the latter is the adjutant.
Such specifications are also normal in the national army, but this situation is only used to pick up superior leaders. This shows that Zhou Fangjie attaches great importance to Zhang Tianhai.
"Old Zhang, welcome to our Second Guard Regiment. It's really wonderful." Zhou Fangjie went up and exchanged pleasantries. Of course, this was for other people, especially his adjutant and chief of staff.
"Lao Zhou, there is no need to say these shabby words between you and me. If you say them, they will make people laugh. So, please invite me to your regimental leader's office for a cup of tea as soon as possible. It's true." Zhang Tianhai laughed and said, he has been the leader for so long, how can he still not know how to deal with these relationships? Anyway, others give you face, and you have to keep it.
"Okay, no problem. Let's go together! Chief of Staff Xiong, let's go together! Ask the leader of our 'No. 1 Regiment in the World' and the leader of the first guard regiment in our ninth theater how to manage the troops. Zhou Fangjie ordered, "Xiao Cao, lead the way!"
"Yes, regimental seat!" Adjutant Cao responded.
"Old Zhou, I just saw that your troops are well trained. Looking at their energy, it's like seeing the roar of our first regiment of guards when they went to the battlefield. It's pretty good." Zhang Tianhai praised.
"How can you? If you don't lead the soldiers well, won't you, Lao Zhang, laugh to death at me, Zhou Fangjie? If you don't lead the soldiers well, you will definitely scold me and say, what the hell did you save from the Nanjing battlefield?" said At this, Zhou Fangjie burst out laughing. Looking at his appearance, he was definitely really happy, and there was no possibility of being fake at all.
"Hey, let's not talk about this. Let's go and see the office of your regiment leader Zhou Da." Zhang Tianhai said with a smile.
After a while, Zhang Tianhai and a group of people, led by Zhou Fangjie's adjutant Cao, arrived at Zhou Fangjie's office.
Zhou Fangjie's office is in a corner on the second floor. The door number has five powerful characters written on it - Head's Office.
When Zhang Tianhai approached Zhou Fangjie's office, he couldn't help but sigh that his office was so frustrating.
However, this is also a normal phenomenon. As an officer who came from a wealthy family, Zhou Fangjie surpassed Zhang Tianhai by more than one street in terms of enjoyment. The interior of the house was decorated in a typical Western style, with sofas and coffee tables. Even this The area of the room is also twice that of Zhang Tianhai's office.
I have to say, people are more irritating than others. Zhang Tianhai is an officer with a good style. Perhaps due to the influence of the "Eight Rules" and the "Eight Honors and Eight Disgraces" of later generations, his requirements for accommodation are not high. Anyway, as long as you can work, rest, and maintain daily operations, that's fine. It doesn't mean that you must pay attention to enjoyment when conditions permit.
But Zhou Fangjie is different. He is the most typical Huangpu officer of this era. He is the kind who can endure hardship when there are no conditions, and must enjoy it when conditions are available.
"How's it going? Is it okay?" Zhou Fangjie seemed to be showing off his work.
"It's okay, but it's much better than my thatched house." Zhang Tianhai laughed at himself.
"Hey...Old Zhang, what you said is wrong. I know you have a good style and can endure hardships, but from another perspective, we have lived and died for the party and the country, and we have endured all hardships and hardships. Can't you just enjoy it when you can?" Zhou Fangjie said.
"Hey, don't try to get through my thoughts. I'm used to it and I definitely can't change it. Why don't you sit down and have a cup of tea first and talk about the differences between our two groups and specific cooperation matters." Zhang Tianhai was not used to this, so he quickly changed the subject.
"Okay, let's have a cup of tea first!" Zhou Fangjie asked Zhang Tianhai to sit down, and then motioned to Chief of Staff Xiong to sit down.
"Okay, then I would rather obey your orders than I am respectful." Zhang Tianhai nodded and sat in the direction pointed by Zhou Fangjie.
After a while, Adjutant Cao came up with three cups of hot tea. Obviously, this had been prepared in advance.
"Let's have tea! Let's talk while drinking." Zhou Fangjie's etiquette is still very considerate. Apart from enjoying himself, he really doesn't have any outstanding shortcomings.
"Okay!" Zhang Tianhai nodded, took a sip of tea, and then said: "Lao Zhou, and Chief of Staff Xiong, we are no longer outsiders. If you have anything to say, I will say it directly."
"Okay, just tell me!" Zhou Fangjie nodded.
"To be honest, I came here rashly to discuss something." Zhang Tianhai said bluntly, "At that time, we also mentioned it in private, saying that if we were going to the battlefield, we would bring your second guard regiment with us. , do you still remember this?"
"Of course I remember." Zhou Fangjie responded immediately. After all, he was the one who took the initiative to bring up the matter.
"That's it. The reorganization of our First Guard Regiment is almost in progress. We are going to apply to Commander Xue for transfer to the front line in the near future. I don't know what the opinions of Lao Zhou and Chief of Staff Xiong are, and whether they will follow the pace of our regiment. Together we will be transferred to the front line, that is, the south bank of the Xinqiang River." Zhang Tianhai directly opened the skylight and spoke frankly.
After Zhou Fangjie thought for a while, he said: "I am preparing to go to the battlefield. I don't know what Chief of Staff Xiong's opinion is."
With that said, Zhou Fangjie looked at Chief of Staff Xiong.
