Chapter 516: Welcome Meeting
In addition to a battalion of infantry who had experienced actual combat and needed to conduct rotational battles, there were also a number of seriously wounded soldiers who were wounded in the Fuzhou Campaign, and some medal winners who were rewarded with holidays.
When the transport ship entered the port, the personnel on the transport ship were greeted by a large number of banners hanging on the port and bouquets of flowers.
In addition, a large number of government officials, military representatives, and civilian condolences awaited. A grand welcome ceremony awaits those returning home.
The personnel of all parties comforted the soldiers and wounded soldiers who returned home with honor, and also gave each of them a sum of silver dollars as a bonus.
Obviously, this is a show, and it is also taking the show to the extreme, which is buying people's hearts. However, Chen Xin is willing to do more of this kind of show that is beneficial to promoting positive energy and benefiting the vast number of soldiers fighting on the front line.
This group of wounded soldiers who returned to China, because many of them were injured in the close combat by the Fuzhou River, so many of them were missing arms and legs, and they looked very miserable.
Many of these wounded had no way to return to the army, but the Huaxia Military Department still regarded them as their most valuable asset.
They possess valuable battlefield experience that anyone should cherish, and, moreover, the experience of victorious combat.
If these people are arranged to enter various townships, towns, villages, villages, schools, and government departments, they will not only be able to impart actual combat experience to the militia, reserve forces, government functionaries, and students in various townships and towns, but will also bring with them a positive and uplifting spirit and strong confidence in daring to fight.
If you are like the veterans of the Guan Ning Army and Jiubian in the Ming Kingdom, although it seems that they are as experienced on the battlefield, you must know that they have lost every time, and the final result can only be to get a large group of veteran oil.
Even if there are occasionally some veterans who dare to fight and can fight, I am afraid that in a warlordized and degraded military group like the Guanning Army, I am afraid that it will not be able to play its due role.
After welcoming the wounded soldiers, the government personnel can leave the venue, and the next port is left to the civilians who came to greet them.
Immediately, some people were involved, and even carried wounded soldiers and medal recipients out of the port, and after walking out of the port, a larger number of people near Uiju stayed outside.
The appearance of the wounded soldiers aroused enthusiastic cheers from a large number of people who came to participate in the welcome party, and shouts such as "heroes" and "heroes" were heard endlessly.
Some young people who have not yet reached the age of joining the army, but who are already extremely eager for a military career, rushed directly into the field and lifted some of the wounded who were not too seriously injured.
The young guys excitedly shouted "hero" to the surrounding people, causing hundreds of people in the audience to applaud and cheer.
In the outer area of the crowd, occasionally a few foreign businessmen, or guys with special status, dressed in expensive or poor clothes, carefully looked at the scene.
At this time, a group of people with unknown intentions mixed in the chaotic crowd followed out of the port, and outside the port, it was completely crowded.
Looking at the lively scene on the shore, some of the people who paid more attention to Huaxia were secretly frightened.
They knew very well that Huaxia had only been hit by a turmoil last year, and he had thought that this country, which had been at war for many years, would be even more miserable than the Gyeonggi region of the Ming Dynasty, which had endured a post-Jin invasion.
However, they didn't expect that the people of this Huaxia Kingdom would be so strong in momentum and so strong in battle.
In front of their well-intentioned people, the people of China kept cheering "kill the Tartars" and "heroes", like the waves of the sea, and that kind of enthusiasm was something that they, who came from the Ming Dynasty, had never seen in the soldiers and people of their own military towns.
"No wonder this Chinese soldier is so capable of fighting, I just look at these people to know the reason, but this Chen Xin is just a slave who escaped from the Tartars, how did he do all this now?"
All the guys who saw this scene sighed strangely in their hearts.
······
At this moment, Xiaohu, who had just gotten off the transport ship, was carried on his shoulders by several teenage students.
Xiaohu looked at the crowd below who kept waving his arms, and smiled a little restrainedly, the wound on his face was still wrapped in gauze, which made his dry smile look even more awkward.
Xiaohu was lucky and had good physical fitness, so it was useless to take anti-inflammatory drugs, just a little fresh honey, which saved his life and limbs.
However, as the saying goes, after a hundred days of injury, there is no problem with the injuries on his shoulder and face, but his pierced calf, even if the injury is not too serious, it is not so good in ten days.
With a leg injury that prevented him from even participating in training, he was eligible for a vacation, so he applied for a two-month leave immediately after getting off the ship.
Several young students carried him all the way through the sea of people, and the enthusiastic cheers and shouts of hundreds of people made a shy little tiger look very cramped, but a strange sense of satisfaction inexplicably rose in his heart.
The crowd's destination was a barracks near the port, where all the returning soldiers had gathered.
The barracks were not far east of the port, and the people could not enter the barracks, so the students put him at the gate of the barracks, and then applauded excitedly, shouting to him, "You are the hero of our kingdom." ”
Xiaohu grabbed his hair a little confused, he didn't know what to say. At this time, several soldiers came out of the barracks and helped him into the barracks.
After walking through the gate, which was guarded by sentry posts and rifles, and bypassing an inner wall that looked like an entryway, there was a large training ground.
Originally, there was a garrison battalion of troops here, but because of today's welcome meeting, there was no training plan for the afternoon.
At this time, the entire large training ground was divided into several fields, and many soldiers in armor were chasing rugby in full swing. The soldiers around the stadium howled loudly, making the training ground extremely noisy.
Xiaohu looked at the sports on the court and was very happy. This game, called rugby, is also his favorite sport.
