Lei Jian saw the two girls staring at him with a strange look, he immediately realized that he regarded this place as a circle of life before crossing over, and said embarrassedly for a while: "I am really injured, my brain is sick, and I eat deliciously, so I don't care about yelling, I'm sorry, I told you two to see the joke." ”

Chun Tao whispered a few words to Xiao Liao, and Xiao Liao smiled mischievously at Lei Jian, turned around and ran out of the small cave.

Lei Jian felt that the two girls didn't know what tricks they were doing, and he was afraid that if he didn't leave at this time, it would bring more trouble, so he would have to go out.

Chun Tao hugged him and said, "Brother Lei, you can't leave now, your ......." ”

Lei Jian was hugged by Chun Tao, and his head was sober and begged: "Sister Chun Tao, I still have a lot of things to deal with immediately, you are a sensible girl, don't make any more trouble, okay?" ”

Chun Tao was embarrassed by Lei Jian's words, and let go of it embarrassedly and said, "Don't be afraid, I can't eat you, wait a while, the egg noodles you want will come." ”

"Nonsense, I'm just talking nonsense for a while, why do you really get me noodles? I'm so special, how will I lead troops in the future? Get out of the way and let me out. Lei Jian pushed Chun Tao away with all his might, but Chun Tao didn't pay attention, his body retreated a few steps back, and he almost fell.

Lei Jian rushed out of the small cave and walked briskly in the big cave, and when he hung his arms and checked all the light and serious wounded, his heart was finally at ease.

He asked Xiao Zhou, the correspondent who was following him: "Where is the high political commissar now?" ”

"Report to Battalion Commander Lei, Political Commissar Gao and Political Commissar Luo and Luo are now in the war room, as if they are listening to Instructor Dong's report on the situation of our independent battalion."

Lei Jian drank a bowl of noodles, his body recovered very quickly, after all, he entered the Shaolin Martial Arts School when he was a teenager before the crossing, three years of martial arts training, the tempered physique is very domineering, graduated from the military academy and came to the army, from the grassroots level, more than ten years of military training, became the director of the training department of a base, often led the troops to train, and the body has been kept in the best condition.

That is to say, Lei Jian's physical foundation is good, he has traveled to the anti-Japanese battlefield, he is marching and fighting every day, and he has not slackened his usual martial arts training, and he has recovered so quickly, that is, he Lei Jian, if he is replaced by someone else, he will not have to lie down for a few days to get up.

Lei Jian was walking, and met the nurse Xiao Liao, who was holding a bowl of egg noodles in both hands, and said with a smile: "Battalion Commander Lei, the noodles you want are ready, you go back and eat the noodles while they are hot." ”

"Nonsense, when am I going to have egg noodles?" Lei Jian dodged Xiao Liao, walked quickly to the entrance of the war room, and heard a person's merits and demerits being debated inside, Niu Dali's voice was the loudest, and he shouted angrily: "He is a traitor, a traitor, I don't believe that he will really resist Japan." ”

Lei Jian didn't know who the people inside were arguing so hard for, pushed open the firewood door at the entrance of the cave, and walked in to see all of them with red faces and thick necks, and the argument was very angry, and it seemed that a fierce battle would break out at any time.

Just when Lei Jian frowned and was about to retreat, someone behind him tapped him on the right shoulder and whispered: "Everyone is arguing fiercely about this person, I don't know how to answer from the front, you are here, I will hand over the topic of their argument to you." ”

Lei Jian turned around and saw Political Commissar Gao and Luo Jinchuan standing behind him, and he stood up and saluted and reported: "Report to Political Commissar Gao, Battalion Commander Luo, Lei Jian reports to you." ”

The quarrel in the war room was lively, and when he heard the sound of Lei Jian, he immediately stopped arguing and came to him, saluting and reporting: "Report to Battalion Commander Lei, how are your injuries?" Are you okay? ”

Lei Jian saw Niu Dali, Wang Xiaoliang and several company commanders coming up, although he was asking him how his injuries were with concern, but they were still blushing and had thick necks and did not recover from the argument.

He frowned and asked, "What are you arguing about here?" The high political commissar came to Santougu and had important instructions for our independent battalion, you should withdraw first, if there is anything you don't understand, I will break it for you when there is time. ”

Several battalion and company commanders of the independent battalion began to argue again as they walked out, and Lei Jian was shocked when he heard this, and looked at the high political commissar.

Political Commissar Gao said with a smile: "Battalion Commander Lei, don't look at me, in your defense area, you have to solve everything, and it's useless to look at me." ”

In order to seize the time to accept the spirit of the instructions from his superiors, Lei Jian gave up the political commissar Gao to the main seat of the conference table, and asked, "Political commissar Gao, if you have any instructions, give an order." ”

When the high political commissar looked at the war room, Luo Jinchuan, Lei Jian, Dong Dayong and the director of the political department of the detachment, as well as the chief of the detachment's operations department who came with him, he patted the conference table and said: "Sit down, I will first convey the resolution of the detachment headquarters and the reply order of the mountain column to you." ”

He took an order handed to him by the director of the Political Department and read it out solemnly: "After the detachment's research and report and the approval of the Mountain Column Headquarters, the independent battalion of the Fifth Detachment of the Mountain Column of the Eighth Route Army was ordered to be expanded into the Independent Regiment of the Fifth Detachment of the Mountain Column of the Eighth Route Army, and Lei Jian was appointed as the head of the independent regiment. ”

When Lei Jian heard this appointment order, he immediately stood up and saluted, and replied loudly, "Yes." ”

"Order Luo Jinchuan to be the political commissar of the Independent Regiment of the Fifth Detachment of the Mountain Column of the Eighth Route Army; ordered Dong Dayong to be the head of the Political Department of the Independent Regiment; ordered Niu Dali and Wang Xiaoliang to be deputy heads; ordered Li Gang to be the commander of the cavalry battalion of the Independent Regiment; Zhang Ping is the Director of the Telecommunications Investigation Division; He Chuntao is the captain of the regimental health team; Zheng Tie was the commander of the first battalion; Cao Shangui is the commander of the second battalion; Qi Benfeng was the commander of the third battalion, and the company commanders were appointed by the newly formed independent regiment. ”

During the reading of the order, several people present stood upright, and when the senior political commissar finished reading the order, these people saluted and shouted: "Yes, ensure that all actions are under the command, and hit the little devils fiercely." ”

Political Commissar Gao shook hands with the newly appointed cadres of the Independent Regiment one by one, and said earnestly: "The combat tasks and scope of the newly formed Independent Regiment and your independent battalion will be very different, and I hope that no matter what battlefield you are on, you will never forget that you are tough guys with iron bones in Jiaodong, and I hope that under the command of the new regiment leaders, you will definitely carry forward the fine traditions, overcome all difficulties, and bravely kill the enemy and make new contributions to defend the villagers in the base areas and to complete the tasks assigned by the superiors." ”

On behalf of the newly formed independent regiment, Lei Jian clenched his fists and shouted simply and forcefully: "Guarantee the completion of the tasks assigned by the superiors." ”

Several people shouted loudly with loud fists at the same time: "Obey the command, kill the enemy bravely, and ensure the completion of the task." ”

After everyone sat down, Political Commissar Gao continued: "I took a dozen cadres and a guard squad this time, and encountered a large army of the enemy besieged in Tiesao Mountain. ”

Lei Jian stood up and said guiltily: "Political Commissar Gao, it's because I, Lei Jian, didn't send troops to respond in advance, which caused such a big loss, and I ...... it." ”

"Don't blame yourself, not only do you not have responsibility but also should be rewarded, you can be able to respond in advance without getting orders and exact news in advance, this is a commander, who can predict in time, and the command ability of both wisdom and courage to attack decisively, Lei Jian has done a good job in this."

Political Commissar Gao continued: "I want to say a few things now, I hope you can listen carefully, discuss them well after the meeting, come up with a practical plan, and be ready to go to a new battlefield at any time."

First of all, since the beginning of the winter of 1939, the Japanese army has taken railways and highways as its pillars, and in order to divide, encircle, and eliminate the Eighth Route Army, it has frantically swept through the anti-Japanese base areas, attempted to sever the ties between the various anti-Japanese base areas, compressed the Eighth Route Army's operational space and attack channels, and implemented the 'cage policy' with railways as pillars, highways as chains, and pillboxes as locks.

The headquarters of the Eighth Route Army launched a traffic sabotage war against the Japanese army, focusing on the Taihang Mountains in North China and the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei strategic area, and attacking the Zhengtai Railway and the Tongpu Railway, as well as the Japanese army's communication lines on the surrounding railways, so as to deal a powerful blow to the Japanese North China Front.

On 20 July, the commander-in-chief, deputy commander-in-chief, and deputy chief of staff of the Eighth Route Army signed the "Order on Preparation for the Attack on Zhengtailu Campaign," ordering all units in North China to make combat preparations and make every effort to complete preparations for the attack on the Japanese army's lines of communication. ”

Speaking of this, Political Commissar Gao looked at Lei Jian and continued: "The Eighth Route Army Mountain Column Headquarters has received an order to order all detachments to be ready for reinforcements at any time, Commander Lei, you stinky boy is worried about Commander Xu, listen to the tone, you may want to pull your newly formed independent regiment into the operation of this raid war." ”

As soon as Lei Jian heard Commander Xu mention him, he immediately felt like a spring bouncing up, and replied loudly with a straight salute: "Please rest assured that the Independent Regiment is ready to obey orders at any time, as long as I can participate in this battle, I Lei Jian will have no regrets in this life until death." ”
