Chapter 66: Noji Headquarters
It is said that Li Jiangguo and Ma Quanyou left the garrison with more than 600 prisoners with horses and supplies on the second day of Li Yong's departure, and left the station under the instructions of instructor Wang Chengde and headed in the direction where the main force of the Northwest Field Army was located.
In the county seat of Huanxian County on the Longdong Plateau, a small courtyard full of antennas is the temporary headquarters of the Northwest Field Army, and the gray-haired old general took a telegram and said to the people around him: "Look, our small unit has news again." ”
A chief in a leather jacket took the telegram and read it and said: "Good guy, another cavalry regiment has been eliminated, and Qingyang City has been liberated, it is really not easy for a few hundred people to do such a big thing, is this commander very good, should be commended." ”
The gray-haired old general said: "Yes, although this army is not big, it has done the main force a great favor, if they hadn't dragged the enemy's cavalry, our logistical supply would have been very problematic, we must give them a commendation, tell the king beard of the second column, they have cultivated a heroic army." ”
Another commander continued: "According to our intelligence, this small unit fought very coincidentally, although it was in the case of continuous combat with the enemy's strength and weakness, their casualties were not large, this commander is really good, listen to the scout sent by our headquarters last time, this company commander named Li Yong is not yet 20 years old, when did such a young company commander appear under the beard." ”
The gray-haired old general said: "It's really a hero out of a young man, there is a chance to let this Li Yong come to the headquarters once, let's see what our hero looks like." ”
While we were talking, a guard came in to report that a unit outside had brought prisoners and some supplies to the headquarters, and we asked for the number of the unit, and they said that it was from the special service company of the 2nd Regiment of the 2nd Column and 4th Brigade.
A chief suddenly remembered something and said: "The Special Service Company of the Second Regiment of the Fourth Brigade, isn't this the number of that small unit?" It's really said that Cao Cao and Cao Cao will arrive. ”
The gray-haired old general asked with interest, "Is it?" What did they got? The guards replied: "They don't know that this is the headquarters of the Noji, but it just so happened that there were hundreds of prisoners, each of whom carried a few rifles with bolts on their backs and a horse, and immediately tied a lot of supplies, I can't tell what it was, and the commanders who led the team were two platoon commanders." ”
The chief, dressed in a leather jacket, said: "You arrange the prisoners and supplies, let the soldiers who escort them rest, and call the two platoon commanders in." ”
The guards had not been out for a long time, and Li Jiangguo and Ma Quanyou walked in after shouting a report, and both of them were a little dumbfounded when they saw the heads of the room.
Both of them were secretly wondering, where were they taken by the guards? It's a little wrong, these chiefs seem to be more powerful than the regiment commander and the brigade commander, both of them are old soldiers, and these eyes are not in vain.
The people in the room were all senior commanders of the Northwest Field Army, although they were all wearing the same ordinary gray military uniforms as the soldiers, and some of them still had several patches on their bodies, but the style that they had cultivated all year round made experienced people know at a glance that they were not ordinary people.
Li Jiangguo turned out to be a platoon commander of the guard company of the Second Regiment, and he was a person who had seen a little of the world, but he had never seen so many chiefs, and he knew that they were all big chiefs when he looked at the posture, so he felt that his heart was a little uncompromising, and he was nervous that he had even done it in the guards, and Ma Quanyou was even more impossible, and he was a little afraid to speak, and the two of them hurriedly stood up and saluted and then stood there like a stick, and no one dared to speak.
The chiefs of the room looked around the two of them as if they were looking at the Western scenery, and one of them asked, "What does it mean to wear leather shoes and no leggings, and to hang grenades on both sides of your neck?" Li Jiangguo replied: "Report to the chief, first, you can bring two more grenades, and second, it is convenient to throw them out when you are fighting." ”
One of the chiefs asked, "What do you have in your backpack?" Li Jiangguo and Ma Quanyou hurriedly put the backpack on the ground and opened it for the chief to check, and several leaders took out all the contents of the backpack with great interest.
Several chiefs looked at the military blankets, first aid kits, dry rations, water bottles, cigarettes, and spare ammunition that were taken out of it and said, "Are you rich, and are the other soldiers like this?" How can you hold so many cigarettes, can you smoke them? ”
Li Jiangguo replied: "Report to the chief, this is the standard equipment of our company, everyone is the same, the cigarettes we brought to the commanders to smoke, our company commander said, the head of the headquarters has a lot of smokers, this is what we captured from the regimental headquarters of the enemy in Qingyang, let the commanders taste it." ”
The leaders laughed and said, "Are you little company commanders quite good at doing things, just like this is not enough for us to share." Li Jiangguo replied: "There are still a lot, enough for the chiefs to draw, all in the backpacks of other soldiers." ”
The chief in the leather jacket asked, "What else do you want to get back?" It's not just smoke. Li Jiangguo replied: "Report to the chief, there are more than 600 prisoners and more than 600 war horses, as well as more than 1,000 rifles and some food, this is the list." ”
After speaking, he handed over a piece of paper, and the chief in a leather jacket took it and said while looking at it: "Boss, there are really a lot, look at it." ”
As he spoke, he handed the list to the gray-haired old general, who looked at the list and asked, "Why didn't your company commander and instructor come?" ”
Li Jiangguo replied: "Report to the chief, our instructor is training recruits, our company has left a hundred prisoners, and after the training is completed, they will be added to our company, our company commander said, our company's heavy firepower should be strengthened, if it is not replenished, the personnel will not be enough, the enemy still has three regiments of cavalry in the Qingyang area, the company commander took some people to chase the enemy's remaining troops, the company commander and the instructor are very busy and they can't come." ”
The old general asked again: "The enemy still has three regiments of troops, and you people still dare to chase after them?" Aren't you afraid of being dumplings made by the enemy? ”
Li Jiangguo replied: "Report to the chief, it's okay to have our company commander here, it's too difficult to make our company commander suffer, and we can't afford to suffer losses." ”
The old general turned his head to look at the surrounding chiefs and continued: "Heh, it seems that you have a lot of confidence in your company commander, is your company commander very powerful?" ”
Ma Quanyou, who had not spoken all this time, saw that the chief was very kind, and he also put his heart down and replied: "Report to the chief, our company commander is not very old, but he has a lot of eyes, we killed three enemy regiments in a row, and only a dozen soldiers were sacrificed in total, and more than fifty were wounded, and those enemies are not his opponents." ”
The old general smiled and said, "Yes, you two tell us how powerful your company commander is." "If you get up early and write a little less words, the brothers will read it."
