Chapter 1078: It's a Hard Time
In the afternoon of the same day, Yu Liangzhen left Yinjiang.
Yu Bojun did not follow, but stayed directly, and was sent by Zhong Yi to the officer training regiment as an instructor to train those veterans of the national army who had been absent from the battle for a long time.
Yu Bojun had just left with his front foot, and He Wenxi had arrived with his back foot.
Although the East Zhejiang Coastal Defense Corps has not yet been formally established, under the instruction of Zhong Yi, the staff headquarters of the East Zhejiang Coastal Defense Corps has been formed in advance.
He Wenxi, director of the General Staff Department, has also taken up his post.
"Director He?" Zhong Yi said, "Is there something wrong?" ”
He Wenxi said: "Counselor, my group of friends have arrived. ”
"Oh yes? Look at it. Zhong Yi stood up after speaking.
The staff headquarters of the East Zhejiang Coastal Defense Corps is located next door to the municipal government, which was originally the school building of the Yinjiang Commercial School, and later Zhong Yi made a decision to prepare for the establishment of Yinjiang University, and the commercial school moved to Jiangbei, and the school building was vacated, and then it was requisitioned by Zhong Yi as the staff building of the East Zhejiang Coastal Defense Corps.
In the future, it will become the command center of the East Zhejiang Coastal Defense Corps.
Zhong Yi walked into the gate of the staff headquarters with He Wenxi, and saw more than 100 people lining up in the courtyard.
Most of these more than 100 people are wearing quilts and basins, although they are wearing civilian clothes, but the discerning people are soldiers at a glance, and some of the temperament of the soldiers, you can't hide it even if you want to.
Zhong Yi also discovered that the mental outlook of these commanders and fighters of our party is slightly different from that of the officers and men of the national army.
At first glance, there seems to be no difference between the two, but if you look closely, you will find that there is light in the eyes of these commanders and fighters of our party, and they are full of love for life and hope and confidence in the future.
And this is the fundamental reason why Zhong Yi deliberately recruited more than 100 commanders and fighters from the New Fourth Army through Lao He.
Because, Zhong Yi wants to use these more than 100 commanders and fighters to shape the spiritual outlook of the future coastal defense corps.
To say that the grassroots officers and soldiers of the national army are actually not afraid of death, on the battlefield, they are also willing to fight with their lives, but more often, their desperate efforts are more like begging for death, dying for death!
There are many reasons for this phenomenon, but the most fundamental reason is that senior officers do not treat officers and men at the grassroots level as human beings.
Most of the time, senior officers will deduct military salaries, only give the officers and men at the grassroots level the worst food, provide them with the worst medical conditions, and even resell arms to fill their pockets, but only provide the officers and men with the best weapons and equipment, and in the end give the officers and men at the grassroots level the feeling that life is worse than death, so the officers and men at the grassroots level will seek death.
Because sometimes, it's really better to live than to die.
This is not the case with our party's armed forces, which pay attention to the equality of officers and soldiers, and it is not possible to beat and scold soldiers, so most of the time, our party's commanders and fighters are not only brave, but also willing to fight for their lives on the battlefield, and their desperate efforts are for the sake of survival, a better life! This is the biggest difference between the two!
At that moment, Zhong Yi said: "Director He, you pick a dozen literate people to stay, and the rest will go to the officer training regiment to participate in unified military training, and then arrange their positions according to their performance in the training regiment." ”
"Yes!" He Wenxi immediately picked a few educated, and then sent the remaining 100 or so commanders and fighters to the officer training regiment in Zhaobaoshan.
……
When I got home from work, I found that there were many more people in Zhang's villa.
To be more precise, there were a lot of heavily armed guards.
Looking at this posture, it is obvious that the third uncle Zhang Yuannan has returned to Lao Zhang's house.
Sure enough, as soon as he walked into the door, Zhong Yi heard Zhang Yuannan's voice.
Zhang Yuannan was complaining to Zhang's mother: "Mom, don't you know how bad the food in our division is, your son and I haven't tasted meat for three months, it's bitter!" ”
Zhang's mother reprimanded: "All the nonsense, you are a major general." ”
Zhong Yi immediately continued: "Mom, I'm afraid the third brother really didn't talk nonsense. ”
While speaking, Zhong Yi walked into the living room, and saw his father-in-law Zhang Mouzhi, his mother-in-law Mrs. Zhang, his second uncle Zhang Yuanxi, brother-in-law Zhang Yuanfan, and his wife Zhang Manyi all there, talking around Zhang Yuannan.
Seeing Zhong Yi come in, all six members of the Zhang family stood up, and the old man Zhang Mouzhi was no exception.
No matter how much some people pretend to be majestic, others will not take him seriously, but there are still some people, no matter how easy-going they are, there is still a majesty between their words and deeds.
"Ziren, you're back." Zhang Yuannan said, "If you don't come back, I'll have to leave." ”
"The third brother is leaving so soon?" Zhong Yi was stunned and said, "It's hard to come back and stay for a few days?" ”
"That's what I said." Zhang Yuannan said angrily, "I'll let you go to Shangyu to live for a few days, can you stay?" ”
When Zhong Yi heard this, his expression froze, and he asked, "Why, it's been two months, and the affairs in the army haven't been sorted out yet?" ”
"Sort it out?" Zhang Yuannan shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I haven't even figured it out yet, these people and things in all aspects are too complicated, I'll tell you the truth, don't laugh at you, now I really regret it." ”
"Nonsense." Zhang Mouzhi's face was a little unbearable, and he didn't have a good breath, "What do you regret?" ”
"I regret that I shouldn't have been in the army." Zhang Yuannan said, "How relaxed it was when I was in the General Staff Headquarters before, I went to work and ordered a mao, and then there was basically nothing to do, after work, I should rub mahjong and mahjong, and I should dance and dance, and those days were pleasant. ”
Zhang Mouzhi frowned and said, "Is it really so difficult?" ”
"Dad, let me say this, it's a hundred times harder than you think!" Zhang Yuannan sighed and said, "I even pasted the division commander's allowance into it, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to eat a meal of meat for two months, but even this is still a drop in the bucket, and the funding gap of the army is really not ordinarily big!" ”
Zhang Mouzhi: "The headquarters of the group army and the headquarters of the theater commander don't care? ”
"Tube?" Zhang Yuannan said, "What do they do?" The military salary that can be issued is getting less and less, but the purchasing power of fiat currency is getting worse and worse, two years ago, the five-jiao fiat currency could be eaten in a restaurant, and it could not buy half a catty of rice in a month, and now it is even more absolute, and the people of Shangyu directly refused to accept fiat currency. ”
Zhang Mouzhi fell silent when he heard this.
Because Shangyu was close to Yuyao, it was the first to be affected by the Yinjiang River and began to refuse to accept fiat currency.
At this time, the 194th Division stationed in Shangyu was in a difficult situation, and rations became a problem.
Zhang Yuannan came home this time, and he also came to make a relationship with his Lao Tzu, but he really had no choice, so he could only ask him for money with a cheeky face, thousands of people, and he had to live.
