Yang Ling was particularly strict with the intensive training of the brothers, and the brothers were tossed and tormented in the mud in the mountains every day, and at night they lay down and felt like they were falling apart. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

As the war approached, all kinds of gossip were flying all over the sky, and the troops had stopped training and entered a state of imminent war, and the brothers were recuperating and ready to go to the front at any time.

The order to go to the front line has not yet been issued, and the training of the brothers has ended.

In order to maintain the combat effectiveness of the brothers, the regiment commander Zhang Handuo and Yang Ling decided to carry out activities such as tug-of-war competitions and military competitions for the brothers to participate in.

At first, the brothers in the battalions and companies were reluctant to participate in such activities, which were too boring, and it was better to sleep or bask in the sun and play chess and cards.

Seeing that the brothers were lazy one by one, Yang Ling deliberately set up a generous reward in order to attract the brothers to participate.

In the face of rich rewards, each company and each platoon are idle anyway, and they have signed up to participate, although the tug-of-war competition is just a simple project, but it is to temper the spirit of teamwork.

Seeing that some companies were rewarded by Yang Ling, the rest of the companies were naturally unconvinced, and they participated in the next project to win back a game.

The brothers enthusiastically signed up for the activity, which not only tempered the teamwork, but also allowed the brothers in each company to enhance their understanding of each other, stimulate their fighting spirit, and keep their morale high at all times.

Zhang Handuo, the head of the regiment, saw that although the brothers' training was stagnant, their morale was still high and screaming, and he also gave Yang Ling a thumbs up.

He didn't expect that these simple team activities would have so many benefits, and he was even more impressed by Yang Ling.

"Brother Yang, let's organize more activities like this in the future, it's much better than playing cards and sleeping."

Yang Ling also didn't expect that he would have such a good effect just by copying these activities that he had in the army.

The weather in the south changed as it began, and the sky was clear at first, but in an instant dark clouds shrouded it, and the rain soon poured down.

The brothers who had gathered on the grass to prepare for a one-man battle had to be disbanded on the spot and run back to their tents to shelter from the rain.

Seeing that the pouring rain soon enveloped the distant mountains in a hazy rain, the king's beard cursed as he took off his muddy shoes.

If it weren't for this heavy rain, with their company's individual stabbing ability, they would definitely be able to defeat the blacksmith's honor company with pride, win the first place, and get the reward.

But the heavy rain blocked the game, so he was not angry, and he could only scold God in his heart for not helping.

"Blacksmith, don't be happy, when the weather is clear, see us beat you so much that you cry and cry and cry to your mother and beg for mercy."

Looking at the blacksmith at the door of the tent opposite, looking happily at this side, Wang Huzi said angrily.

Not to be outdone, the blacksmith raised his head and said, "Beard, it's not certain that whoever beats someone will cry and call his mother, and our honor company has never been afraid of anyone." ”

"Isn't it, brethren—" the blacksmith asked the veterans of the Company of Honor, turning his head.

The veterans of the Honor Company are also unruly masters, and they immediately coaxed: "They are still young, and if they want to defeat us, I am afraid they will have to wait for the next life." ”

The blacksmith took advantage of the high morale of the brothers and said with a smile: "Brothers, come, let's sing a song to lift our spirits." ”

"The wind and clouds are rising, the mountains and rivers are moving-ready to sing!" The blacksmith's mighty voice began to rise, and the brethren of the Company of Honor tore open their voices and began to sing.

The clouds rise, the mountains and rivers move, the Huangpu army is strong, and the revolutionary heroes are loyal.

Sweep vertically and horizontally, rejuvenate China, be invincible, and make great contributions.

The flag is shining, the golden drum is sounding, the dragon and the tiger are majestic, and the loyalty and lean style are raised.

......

The brothers of the Honor Company sang loudly with their voices, and this sonorous and powerful song was mixed with the sound of rain and thunder, and it became more and more majestic and agitated.

Wang Huzi was naturally not to be outdone, they even had to compete with honor for everything, and his hoarse voice sounded.

"The big knife slashed at the heads of the devils, and sang together-"

The king's beard and even the brothers in them puffed out their cheeks and roared in disbelief.

The big knife slashes at the heads of the devils!

The day of the War of Resistance has come!

There are volunteers from the northeast ahead,

Behind there are the people of the whole country,

......

The voices of the brethren were higher and higher, and the passionate military songs of the heavy northwest soldiers covered up the sound of the storm.

Twenty-eight provinces of China,

The children of Guangxi are the strongest,

Born to fight,

Each likes to be a soldier,

Shoulder the gun and go to the battlefield

......

Although the troops of the 74th Army were units of the Central Army, after several fierce battles, the soldiers who were added to the troops came from all over the country.

Soon the brothers from all the provinces were singing in a haphazard manner, and the voices of various accents echoed over the camp.

Looking at the brothers who were singing military songs hard, Yang Ling's hearts were shrouded in an indescribable feeling.

When the Japanese army invaded China, these hot-blooded men abandoned their families and children to devote themselves to this vigorous resistance, they threw their heads and spilled their blood, and made great sacrifices to protect their families and defend the country, and they should not be forgotten.

The sound of horses' hooves sounded in the rain, the horses' hooves splashed muddy water and galloped, and a drenched herald galloped outside the regimental headquarters and restrained the lean horse.

"Commander Zhang, Deputy Commander Yang, the division seat asked you to go to the division headquarters for a meeting immediately."

Zhang Handuo and Yang Ling did not hesitate, and after arranging the affairs of the station, they quickly put on their robes to protect them from the rain, and followed the herald straight to the division headquarters.

The headquarters of the 51st Division was set up in a wooden house in the county town of De'an, and the rain was dripping down the eaves, and the ground was seriously waterlogged, and the entire county was shrouded in damp moisture.

They reined in their horses at the entrance of the division headquarters, and when they saw the heavily guarded soldiers around them, they sensed the unusual atmosphere.

They walked quickly into the division headquarters, ignoring their soaked clothes, and went straight to the conference room under the guidance of a guard.

The conference room at the division headquarters was equally rudimentary, with a tattered bench in the center of the room, surrounded by a few benches, and the room was dim and damp with a musty smell.

"Head Zhang, Deputy Head Yang, sit here." Seeing Yang Ling and them stepping into the threshold, a tall colonel greeted them.

Since the Battle of Lanfeng in the 51st Division, the commanders of the four subordinate regiments have not changed except for Zhang Handuo and their 301st Regiment, and the commanders of the other three regiments have changed.

Due to the promotion of Zhang Lingfu, Qiu Weida and others, the commanders of the 302nd, 305th and 306th regiments were replaced by Lin Xiufeng, Tang Shenghai and Chang Xiaode respectively.

Yang Ling and Zhang Handuo found a place to sit down, and Zhang Handuo asked Lin Xiufeng, who arrived first, and said, "Commander Lin, the division is in such a hurry to call us over, do you know what's going on?" ”

Lin Xiufeng, the commander of the 302nd Regiment, did not hide it, "I heard that the Sichuan army in front has already exchanged fire with the devils." ”

Hearing Lin Xiufeng's answer, Yang Ling and their hearts can be regarded as having a bottom, they have only been resting for less than a month after they withdrew from the Lanfeng battlefield, and they didn't expect to fight again.
