The two chiefs, who were very curious, wanted to visit the Duli Brigade and see how a unit that had come out of a poor place could manage to achieve such a size.

Li Yong and Wang Chengde took Commander Zhang Guohua and Political Commissar Tan Guansan to the station of the Duli Brigade on the second day.

As soon as they arrived at the territory of the Duli Brigade, the eyes of the two army commanders were even more surprised, they were all veterans who had led soldiers to fight for many years, and they couldn't rub sand in their eyes, and the mental outlook and weapons and equipment of the Duli Brigade were refreshing, especially the rows of cars parked near the barracks, which made Commander Zhang and Political Commissar Tan tremble in their hearts.

Cars are a good thing, with these iron guys, there will be a qualitative leap in the speed of the troops' mobility, for example, the Eighteenth Army, if there are so many cars, there will be no problem that the soldiers are tired and can't catch up with the enemy.

The hearts of the two leaders who came to visit were on fire, but then there were also a lot of questions, 10,000 troops, more than a main division of the 18th Army, all of them used motorized marching, and the cars needed were not a small number, besides, it was not enough to have cars, but also a large number of fuel and maintenance parts. Impossible.

It's no wonder that the two chiefs have doubts, seeing the freak-like Duli Brigade, no doubt is a new thing, as if he knows what Commander Zhang and Political Commissar Tan are thinking, Li Yong introduced to the two chiefs that all the weapons and equipment of the Duli Brigade, including cars, etc., are captured by themselves in the battle, and they are not distributed by their superiors, and besides, it is impossible for their superiors to distribute such equipment.

Commander Zhang Guohua and Political Commissar Tan Guansan were convinced of Li Yong's introduction. As senior commanders of the first rank of the army, they knew that the Northwest Field Army was in the environment at that time, surrounded by several times the enemy, in the great northwest with barren land, it was a great victory to survive, and what cars could be distributed there, simply put, the field army did not have that ability.

We all know that equipment that can increase the speed of movement of troops is a good thing, but the one who gets it in his hands is a capable person, otherwise. It's useless to think about it, the reason is not complicated, only by winning the battle can you capture good things from the enemy, and it can be seen from the equipment of other people that the battle of the Duli Brigade is not less. And it's basically a win.

At this time, Commander Zhang Guohua and Political Commissar Tan Guansan were a little impressed by Li Yong and Wang Chengde, not to mention the young age of the two commanders of the Duli Brigade. but they insisted on it.

Didn't say it. Seeing that the two leaders were happy, they continued to take the tour, but the faces of the two leaders became more and more surprised along the way, and the open mouths were a little unable to close.

Battalion commanders and instructors with an average age of only 27 or 8 years old are common in the PLA troops. For example, in Erye, there are many people who become battalion commanders and instructors at this age, but each infantry battalion has more than 1,000 people, so it is not normal to comment.

Commander Zhang Guohua muttered quietly in his heart, damn it. There are more than 1,000 people in a battalion, which is almost the size of a regiment before Lao Tzu, and the number of heavy machine guns and mortars is also so large that it makes people tremble.

This is not the end, the equipment of the infantry is just an hors d'oeuvres that the chief has seen, and when he saw the heavy howitzer battalion and the tank battalion, Commander Zhang Guohua and Political Commissar Tan were simply speechless, and the political commissar Tan Guansan, who has always been known for his calmness, couldn't help but ask in a questioning tone: "This is also your tank battalion and artillery battalion?" ”

Li Yong smiled and reported a little proudly: "Report chief, it is the tank battalion and heavy howitzer battalion of our brigade, and it is also the most important firepower strike unit of our brigade. ”

Jiang Tiexiong, commander of the tank battalion, and Gao Xiang, commander of the artillery battalion, both briefed the two army commanders on the situation of their battalions.

Is this still called a battalion? Just these weapons, equipment and personnel can reach the size of a regiment, a brigade-level unit is equipped with an artillery regiment and a tank regiment, and the Duli brigade is not an ordinary cow.

Commander Zhang Guohua let out a sigh of relief and said: "I finally know a little bit why you didn't catch the prisoners, it's very beating with such firepower, it's hard to live, and it's unlucky for these Tibetan troops." ”

Commander Zhang is very young, only in his thirties, which is the age when he is very energetic in his work, and the mental outlook of the soldiers of the Duli Brigade makes him like it more and more, and as soon as he likes it, he has the meaning of tolerance, so he makes an excuse for why they did not catch the prisoners.

Li Yong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, the meaning of the commander's words was very straightforward, this was covering for them, with such an excuse, the matter of the prisoners was completely over.

After taking a big turn in the Duli Brigade, while touching the background of the brigade, it can be regarded as the chief inspecting the next level of units, after Commander Zhang Guohua and Political Commissar Tan Guansan returned to the military headquarters of the Eighteenth Army, Political Commissar Tan asked with a smile:

"What, do you like this unit? You, the commander of the army, took the initiative to cover for them, and there were no prisoners? It's not as simple as they say. ”

Commander Zhang Guohua laughed: "That's right, I just like it, Comrade Political Commissar, the end of not taking prisoners and not taking prisoners is over, should we hold an enlarged meeting to study the next stage of work deployment." ”

Political Commissar Tan nodded: "It can be seen that they are a very capable team, given the size of their battalion level troops, I mean, the afternoon work meeting will have all the battalion commanders and instructors of the Duli Brigade participate, what is your opinion?" ”

The enlarged meeting of the 18th Army was to recruit commanders above the group level to study the work together, and if the meeting was held in accordance with such regulations, the only people who could participate in the Duli Brigade would be the brigade commander and the political commissar.

Political Commissar Tan and Army Commander Zhang Guohua wanted to convene an enlarged meeting attended by commanders at and above the regimental level, and in view of the fact that the battalion level of the Duli Brigade was too large, and in order to show respect for the newly arrived troops, the battalion commander and instructors were also allowed to participate.

The Duli Brigade is different from other troops, there is no regimental level at all, but ten battalions are directly set up under the brigade, which is a full ten battalions, and two people from each battalion are exactly 20 people.

The 18th Army is the main combat force of the Second Field, except for some units directly under the military headquarters, it is organized into three divisions and nine main regiments, and there are more than 20 division commanders and political commissars who came to the meeting, which is quite a lot, but they can see that the men and horses of the Duli Brigade who came to the meeting like them are not much less than them, and there are more than 20 people, and all of them are young people in their twenties (only Jiang Tiexiong and Sun Quanhou are over 30 years old among the battalion-level commanders of the Duli Brigade).

It was the first time for the commander of the battalion level of the Duli Brigade to participate in the work meeting presided over by the army commander, and it was a new thing, and everyone was only in their twenties, so everyone was very excited, so they ran over early.

The size of both armies was very large, and although they lived in the same city, the distance between the battalions and the military headquarters was not very close, so the battalion commanders and instructors of the Duli brigade came by transport.

The commanders of the Duli Brigade all had the same standard of transportation, all of which were four-wheel drive jeeps, so that more than a dozen small jeeps were parked one after another outside the military department of the 18th Army, occupying a large area of open space outside the military department.

Although it is said that they are all units of the People's Liberation Army, the Duli Brigade is always a descendant, and it is newly transferred from Yiye, and in the eyes of the commander of the 18th Army, they are new faces and new faces.

The style of the clothes is the same, and the red star on the hat is the same, but some careful people found that the cattle of the Duli Brigade who came to the meeting were wearing leather shoes on their feet, which were the kind of high-waisted combat boots that could only be equipped by the Kuomintang ace army, and none of them wore leggings.

Leggings are an old habit and tradition of the troops, but this tradition has been subverted by the people of the Duli Brigade.

In the 50 years since the War of Liberation began, the vast majority of the country had been liberated, the conditions of the major field armies had been greatly improved, and automobiles were no longer a rare item.

I'm not afraid of not knowing the goods, I'm afraid of comparing goods, the people of the Duli Brigade don't have the intention of showing off, but some habits that are inadvertently revealed make those old qualifications a little unhappy, and several commanders of the Eighteenth Army muttered to each other together:

"Damn, these guys in the Duli Brigade are too good, aren't they just a small battalion commander, what's wrong with walking a few steps? They all drove to the meeting, isn't our army commander a little too used to them, and the battalion commander and instructor are also in a meeting with us, so how can Lao Tzu go back and explain to the boys under me? ”

There was a bit of jealousy in the whispered words, muttering and muttering, but no one dared to question the decision of the army commander and political commissar, and the commanders at all levels of the Duli Brigade followed behind Li Yong and Wang Chengde after Li Yong arrived, and walked into the specially prepared large conference room with the people of the Eighteenth Army.

The large conference room was full of commanders at all levels and personnel from the military headquarters, and a rough estimate showed that there could be more than 50 people.

More than 50 people in the meeting sat on one side, and there were more than 20 on each side, which meant that the river water did not interfere with the well water, and the distinction between the two sides was clear.
