"Report to the Commander-in-Chief, thank you for your hard work!!" Zhang Tianhai, as the highest-level commander of the current security forces, greeted the new commander. His every move must represent the attitude of the security forces in the theater.
After Wu Yizhi returned the military salute, he walked directly in front of Zhang Tianhai, patted the latter's shoulder and said: "Zhang Yulin, we are also old friends. I can see that you, the former enemy commander, are still very qualified. At least you led the troops to a great victory shortly after taking office. You are very good!"
"Thank you for the compliment, sir. This is within the scope of my duties. Please rest assured, sir, I will continue to work hard!" Zhang Tianhai said loudly, looking unusually confident.
"Okay, I believe that under your leadership, the development of our theater security forces will be very good. So, take some time and take me to visit the troops!" Wu Yizhi smiled softly.
"Yes, sir!" Zhang Tianhai stood at attention again and saluted. Faced with this situation, he actually felt a little uncomfortable. Maybe he had always handled all the affairs of the army as the commander of an independent army, and now he was suddenly airborne from above. It’s probably normal for him to feel a little uncomfortable when his immediate boss comes down!
Wu Yizhi nodded and said: "Okay, then you can take me to your former enemy headquarters to see it first!"
"Yes, sir." With that, Zhang Tianhai took the lead and walked away. Along the way, he reported a lot about the situation of the troops to Wu Yizhi.
We finally arrived at the former enemy headquarters of the guard force. At this time, all the battalion commanders in the conference room were already sitting inside, waiting for the arrival of the new commander-in-chief of the force.
"Sir, please." Zhang Tianhai pointed to the only two chairs on the rostrum. These were prepared by someone he had ordered in advance, because it was already stated in the telegram sent from the back of the commander's department that Ning, the adjutant of the commander-in-chief, would Junjie accompanied Commander-in-Chief Wu Yizhi to his appointment.
The tables, chairs, and cards on the field were already ready, waiting for Chief Wu and Adjutant Ning to arrive.
Adjutant Ning Junjie was naturally very familiar with this situation, so he led Wu Yizhi to the stage.
"Sir Wu, please." Ning Junjie sat on the left, and then motioned for Wu Yizhi to sit on the right.
China has always respected the left in official circles. Why can Ning Junjie, an adjutant who is just a lieutenant colonel, sit on the left? That's because he came on behalf of Commander Xue Yue, so naturally he had to sit on the left.
This situation is similar to that in later generations when people from the organization department in officialdom took the new leader to the new unit to announce it.
Sure enough, after Wu Yizhi sat down, Ning Junjie said: "Everyone, I, Ning Junjie, am the Deputy Chief of the Ninth War Zone Commander's Department. I was appointed by the Ninth War Zone Commander, Commander Xue Yue. Today, I will work with Wu Yizhi, Commander Wu. Come to Sanjiang Town to announce the appointment of Commander Wu Yizhi as the Commander-in-Chief of the Theater Guard Force. Please welcome Commander Wu’s arrival.”
As soon as Ning Junjie finished speaking, Zhang Tianhai was the first to applaud. Soon, the applause on the court became a lively one.
The applause lasted for a while, and everyone stopped after seeing Ning Junjie's gesture.
At this time, Ning Junjie continued: "Now, I will read out the letter of appointment!"
After saying that, Ning Junjie stood up, holding a document in a blue leather envelope with the Qingtian Bairi emblem printed on it in his hand.
Seeing Ning Junjie stand up, everyone on the field stood up. The scene was very serious.
I saw Ning Junjie read aloud and eloquently: "Appointment Letter No. 49 from the Commander-in-Chief Department of the Ninth Theater Command of the National Revolutionary Army, appointing Wu Yizhi as the Lieutenant General Commander-in-Chief of the Theater Guard Force. This is the letter. Commander-in-Chief Xue Yue, 20th Republic of China April 26, seventh year.”
After Ning Junjie finished reading, he closed the letter of appointment and handed it to Wu Yizhi.
"Applause!!" Zhang Tianhai said loudly, and then applauded. This represents his personal attitude and that of the security forces in the theater.
For Wu Yizhi, looking at these people on the field, there was a smile on his face. He waited for the applause to stop before saying: "Everyone, first of all, I want to thank you for your welcome. Secondly, the theater guard force has just been established. I took up this position out of fear and sincerity, and cannot do without your support. I have roughly learned about some of the situation of the theater guard force on the road, but after I take up the post of commander-in-chief of the theater guard force, I will Make some reorganization measures. Please be prepared."
As soon as Wu Yizhi's words came out, many battalion commanders of the theater security forces present were a little shocked - is this going to change?
Regarding this, Zhang Tianhai knew all about it and was not surprised at all: at the meeting of the core of the army, Li Yinglun once said that Wu Yizhi was a new official after all, and it was normal behavior to make a few fires. You can play however you want, he can't stay in this position for too long anyway.
In this case, the three powerful commanders of the guard force have reached a high degree of agreement on this matter - they all know that Wu Yizhi was Xue Yue's chief of staff in the 19th year of the Republic of China, and then When he arrived at the First Corps, he was also the Chief of Staff. Would Xue Yue abandon this very qualified military advisor?
At this time, what else can we do besides support? Otherwise, when Military Advisor Wu returns to Boss Xue and complains, these guys may not be able to survive anymore. Under such circumstances, it would be better to support him.
The next thing is simple, probably Wu Yizhi is determined to be the commander-in-chief.
The meeting lasted for about half an hour and ended. By this time, Zhang Tianhai and others had prepared a reception for Wu Yizhi to take office.
Of course, since it was close to the meal time, Zhang Tianhai set up a few tables in a courtyard to entertain the middle-level officers of the entire war zone security force (the middle-level officers here refer to the battalion commander level, Excluding company commanders of troops directly under the regiment headquarters), only Wu Yizhi's table was served wine.
"Yu Lin, the front line is so tight now, it's not easy for you to get some meat." Wu Yizhi looked at the table full of dishes, and his throat was already twitching.
"Commander-in-Chief, you don't know anything. This table is full of wild boar meat. To be honest, our First Guard Regiment has a special agent company directly under the regiment headquarters. It always goes into the mountains for training, so it is said that its talent is fighting Let’s try some of these game meats. Don’t worry, our theater security forces have very strict military discipline.” Zhang Tianhai laughed and said with a very hearty smile.
"Okay, let's get going. We walked all the way, but I didn't even have a good meal. Haha..." Wu Yizhi also laughed heartily. He came with the mission of Commander Xue, about the theater guard force. He had to take a good look at everything.
"Okay." Zhang Tianhai nodded, and then everyone started eating.
"Commander-in-Chief, I would like to introduce you to someone while you are having dinner." Zhang Tianhai spoke after seeing Wu Yizhi starting to eat slowly.
"Oh? But it doesn't matter." Wu Yizhi nodded.
