"Brothers have worked hard!" Liu Lang also solemnly raised his hand and saluted when the queue passed by him.

"Hard work, sir!" The marching procession roared in unison.

"Long live the Chinese National Revolutionary Army!" Liu Lang yelled again.

"Long live the Chinese nation!" The soldiers shouted in unison again.

The roar was earth-shattering, echoing over the vast training ground of the Independent Regiment.

The lieutenant general and major general collectively smiled bitterly, the slogan of the independent regiment is really big enough, long live the revolutionary army, long live the nation. No wonder this colonel is not treated well by a certain principal! There are two medals of the Blue Sky and White Sun on his chest, but he is still a little colonel, this is the number one colonel of the Republic of China, and many lieutenant generals and generals do not have this honor with him, but it is a slightly ironic glory.

This man even designed the slogan of his own regiment so uniquely, not loyal to a certain principal or the political group to which he belonged, but to the nation, that the soldiers told everyone present with their own answers that their allegiance was always only to their own nation, the Chinese nation.

However, when this slogan sounds, there is always something unspeakable surging in people's chests, as if if it is not shouted out with them, it will not be happy.

If they wait a few more years to see the military parade of the Republic, which is much larger than the 2,000-strong men of the small independent regiment, they will understand what the emotions that are surging in their breasts that they do not know are.

National pride is the emotion that only people who regard themselves as a member of the Chinese nation will have when they hear the words "long live the Chinese nation".

In this era, they are not without national pride, but they have not yet awakened.

He was followed by the remaining two infantry companies of the first battalion, which appeared one by one under the leadership of the two company commanders.

However, for reasons of secrecy, all infantry companies participating in the parade were not allowed to carry machine guns and artillery, and the new semi-automatic rifles and pistols that had begun to gradually equip the troops were also not allowed to be brought into the parade.

However, Rao is like this, an infantry battalion with more than 600 troops still makes a group of Sichuan army officers breathe cold air. Whether it is a heavy machine gun or a light machine gun, the troops participating in the parade did not carry, which is very understandable, it may not be much, or it affects the beauty of the queue or it is for the sake of secrecy, but this number can not be faked, this is a full number!

Whether it is Fan Shaozeng's Fourth Division or Zhang Yan's 61st Brigade, an infantry battalion can have about 400 to 500 troops, which is considered very good. More than 300 people in a battalion is the most normal thing. Why is it that the establishment is given to 500, but the personnel are never sufficient? Naturally, this has to start with income.

The salary of a major general of the national army should have been 320 silver oceans, but the national government began to make a national disaster salary in 32 years, which directly became 160 silver oceans, and the lieutenant general became 200 silver oceans. Compared with the income of ordinary people who only have about 10 silver oceans per month, the salaries of generals are quite rich even if they are cut.

However, as a general in the upper echelons of a class, his salary is not only to live at home, but also to be sent there, right? In addition, the family has to hire a few helpers, so the salary of about 200 is naturally not useful. Naturally, there must be another way to make money, and the easiest way to open up another way to make money as a general is to think from the soldiers under him, which is commonly known as drinking the blood of soldiers.

It doesn't matter if you deduct military salaries, the characteristic of the Chinese is that as long as you don't go too far, you generally endure it, but this is not a long-term solution and is easy to provoke mutiny. So what to do? The simpler and safer way is to eat empty salaries, and the upper peak allocated me 5,000 salaries for officers and soldiers, then I will only recruit 4,800 soldiers and eat 200 empty salaries, which is thousands of silver oceans in a month.

The 200-man empty formation is only an empty number, and the impact on a brigade is naturally not very great. But if you go up and down, the head of the regiment will think, then I can also eat 100 people's empty salary. The battalion commander will also think, I can also eat 50 people, and the company commander will also eat more than a dozen empty formations. This is good, from top to bottom, if a full brigade of 5,000 people, in the end there can be 4,230, even if the commanders of this brigade are very honest.

As for the Sichuan army, it is even more serious. Because of the war in Sichuan Province every year, the people have long been miserable. They all went to war and grabbed land, who will do the economy? Not to mention, a group of warlords headed by Liu Xiang are still desperately expanding their army, and now the number of troops in Chairman Liu's hands is as high as 52 regiments, and there is no money to raise so many soldiers, how can you do it? Cut military salaries! A regular second-class soldier in the national army has a monthly salary of 7 silver oceans, and when he arrives in Sichuan, the corresponding sergeant can get 4 yuan, which is good.

Where do you imagine where did Master Fan get the money for 340,000 silver to repair the house? Eat empty salary! His division claimed to be tens of thousands, but in fact there were less than 7,000 people.

Such a situation also existed in the well-known and powerful 19th Route Army, but it was not as erosive as the Sichuan Army, and the empty formation rate of a regiment was only about 10 percent.

It's not that the top brass of the government don't know about the stubborn disease of drinking soldiers' blood, but this is almost a common phenomenon, can you arrest all the generals who lead the troops? Besides, the generals have no money, where does the money they collect come from? As long as you don't go too far, you can turn a blind eye. Hello and I, this kind of thing doesn't just apply to relationships between men and women. It can also be used between officials and officials.

You said that they were surprised to see nearly 700 people in three infantry companies of one battalion of the Independent Regiment! This is not a full compilation at all, it is a super-editor! One battalion can almost catch up with most of their regiment.

Could it be that the 3,000-strong independent regiment is completely full? Looking at the team of more than 2,000 people, and deducting the people who stayed at their regimental base and those who were responsible for the surrounding guards, it really couldn't be wrong.

Starting from Fan Shaozeng, to a group of school officers and lieutenants, they looked at the colonel who stood at the front with a majestic figure like a pine and stood straight, and his heart was full of admiration.

Although they are used to drinking soldiers' blood, and if they don't drink it, they feel uncomfortable, but it doesn't mean that they don't admire this kind of person who doesn't drink soldiers' blood.

"Meanness is the passport of the despicable, and nobility is the epitaph of the noble" is only something peculiar to a certain era, and does not apply to the entire history of mankind. Most of the time, there is a spirit called righteousness, and in fact, even your enemies can't help but respect it.

"Now coming to us is a company of the independent regiment death battalion, the leader is the commander of the death battalion, Major Zhou Shiyu, standing beside him is the commander of the first company captain forward, the predecessor of the death battalion is the independent regiment death company, the first battle of Gushan, the death company alone blocked the eighth division and a brigade of thousands of people took turns to attack and endured 150 mm howitzer heavy artillery bombardment for a day, annihilated 800 enemies, shot down two enemy planes, killed 160 people, disabled and retired 18 people due to injuries, and only 28 people were able to reorganize the death camp, including Zhou Shiyu, but they still succeeded, It took them two years to be reborn。。。。。。。 ”

With Zhang Ruhao's roar, Zhou Shiyu and Xiangqian led their own queue into the training ground, and the momentum was not worse than the previous battalion by half a point.

"If you don't move, you're like a mountain, and if you move, you're like fire." It is more suitable for the troops in front of you.

Of course, the most eye-catching girls are the leading major and captain, these two are different from the previous Chi Dakui and Ling Hong's two big black faces, both of them belong to the appearance of beautiful scholars, coupled with heroic military uniforms and masculine and masculine steps, this handsomeness, to a white horse, is the real sense of Prince Charming depicted in the book.

The Prince of Dark Horse and Prince Charming are all gone, followed by the Bayonet Battalion, and then the Rock Battalion. When the rifle-armed infantry battalion was finished, it was an extremely eye-catching phalanx of artillery battalions.

The eye-catching thing about the artillery battalion is not how neatly they walked, nor how many people in their phalanx were the largest, with more than 300 people. Instead, they carried four freshly brushed mountain cannons, each pulled by eight healthy horses into the training ground.

The vast majority of the common people naturally have never seen the artillery, and most of the four mountain cannons they see are just novelty and have not too many other ideas, but in the eyes of the lieutenant general and major general, it is different. They are all knowledgeable, and these four big guys are not the old-fashioned Third Reich-style small cannons in their divisions or brigades, they are Bofors mountain cannons imported from Sweden only three years ago.

Zhang Yan, in particular, knew that Zhang Zhizhong's Fifth Army, which had fought side by side with them, used this kind of imported Bofors mountain cannon that gave the Japanese a great deal of damage. Unexpectedly, the independent regiment actually had four gates.

They didn't know that Liu Lang didn't show half of the strength of the current artillery battalion at all. This kind of Bofors mountain cannon, the independent regiment originally had only two, but relying on the big boss of the procurement group in the Third Reich and the government the year before last, Yu Dawei, pulled a little relationship, and ordered another 10 from the Swedish Bofors company in the name of Lao Yan and Chairman Liu, but the two of them only divided 2 guns, and the remaining six arrived in November and all were quietly dragged to the independent regiment.

Although the current artillery battalion is not yet equipped with the main artillery Storm rocket launcher under development by the independent regiment, the Bofors mountain artillery is already as high as eight guns, which can definitely be as long as an artillery brigade equipped with 12 Japanese-style mountain guns by the Japanese invaders.

They did not walk forward like infantry, but slowly walked in front of Liu Lang and the others. The leading artillery major ran to Liu Lang and saluted: "Sir, the artillery battalion is ready, please give the order." ”

"Pass my military order, you can open fire." Liu Lang also raised his hand and saluted.

Can you fire? At this moment, it is estimated that most of the people who heard their questions and answers were confused.

Isn't it just a military parade! Why did you still get live ammunition?

。。。。。。。。。。。

Ps: Yesterday I appealed in the Fengyue chapter, and the monthly ticket list actually reached the 5th place in the military classification, so grateful, thank you book friends. A 3,000-word chapter was sent.
