The blood of the Anti-Japanese War stained the mountains and rivers

For the publicity effect this time, Yang Ling deliberately made a big publicity campaign, and sent people to invite various forces to participate. At the same time, he invited reporters from the newspaper to report on this commendation conference.

Now Yang Ling wants to take this opportunity to let the surrounding friendly troops and various forces realize the strength of their Northern Subei Corps, to deter those fools and hostile forces who want to join the devils, and to fight against their Subei Corps, that has to be considered Weigh the consequences.

After the announcement that Yangling was going to hold a commendation meeting and a small military parade, all units and departments of the North Jiangsu Corps were also actively preparing.

In just a few days, in the field on the east side of Jieshou Town, the brothers of a battalion opened up a site that can accommodate tens of thousands of people, and built the rostrum, and built air defense fortifications around it. , The three quadruple anti-aircraft machine guns assigned to them by the theater command were also deployed.

The troops in charge of the inspection were also making intensive preparations. According to the training outline given by Yang Ling, they were practicing goose steps, marching in formation, fighting and stabbing martial arts, and military boxing and martial arts.

Although these items have little effect on improving combat effectiveness, they have a significant effect on rallying the morale of the troops and boosting the morale of the troops.

Because Yang Ling was about to hold a commendation meeting in Jieshou, seeing the strong rise of the Subei Corps, no matter whether the friendly troops were jealous or envious, they couldn't be polite.

When Yang Ling sent out the telegram inviting them to watch the ceremony, they quickly received responses, such as Chen Taiyun's Marine Police Force, Sulu Guerrilla Corps, 117th Division, Central Independent Sixth Brigade, 33rd Division, and the 89th Army Headquarters And some departments of the provincial government are preparing to send people to participate.

However, they are now attacking the devils on a large scale and cannot get away. More importantly, they also hold their own identities. After all, Yang Ling's Subei Corps is still too weak compared to them, so the main responsible officer did not come. Just sent some staff officers or adjutants to replace them.

Yang Ling was also mentally prepared for such a result. After all, his rank in the Subei Corps was still too low. The opponents were all at the division level and army level. Seeing that he was from the 74th Army, it was enough to send someone to participate. face.

Anyway, I was just doing it for publicity. Whether the other party sent someone or the chief came in person, the effect was actually the same.

"The Sulu Guerrilla Corps sent Liu Hou, a major staff officer, the 89th Army sent a lieutenant colonel named Zhang Qian, and the provincial government sent Commissioner Wang..."

Now Yang Ling and the others were short of staff, and Qian Fuming from Huaiyin was responsible for the reception.

Qian Fuming was originally just a rich man in Zhangjiaji, Qinghe Town, Huaiyin, but after getting close contact with the Subei Corps, because he can read and write, he has now become a secretary of the Corps Headquarters, responsible for handling some confidential documents, etc. .

Fortunately, when Qian Fuming was a rich man, he also ran several money houses and cloth houses. He had the unique shrewdness of a businessman, and he was also tactful, so he was also handy in being in charge of reception.

"These are all guests sent by friendly troops to watch the ceremony. Regardless of the strength of the opponent's troops, or the size of the official position, the treatment is the same. You can't favor one over another." Yang Ling was also very satisfied when he saw that Qian Fuming handled everything in an orderly manner, but still Excuse me a lot.

Qian Fuming replied with a smile: "Don't worry, Mr. Yang, I have arranged for them to live in the best restaurant in Jieshou Town, and I will definitely not neglect them."

"It's hard work for you, you go to work first."

"Yes, I will resign from my humble position."

Yang Ling saw that Qian Fuming, a clerk, was doing so well in dealing with people and things, and he was already thinking about whether to change him to a more suitable position.

But after thinking about it, he decided to forget it. Their North Subei Corps was originally engaged in wars. This time, they invited all parties to watch the ceremony to show their military might and strength. That’s why they made such a move. There was a war, so I shook my head and denied my thoughts.

Although Yang Ling had expected that the friendly forces and various forces would not send over important people, at most they would send some insignificant people to inquire about the news, but he still welcomed a big person at night.

When he learned that Lieutenant General Zhou Fu, director of the Political Department of the Sulu Theater Command, had arrived at Jieshou, Yang Ling didn't realize it for a while.

Yang Ling is not familiar with the Sulu Theater Command in general, because he went directly to the army after arriving in the Sulu Theater, and there is no direct contact with the theater level. Now that there is a radio station, North Jiangsu has been established. Corps, but he is still under the jurisdiction of Xinghua's Deputy Theater Command.

Although he was not familiar with the headquarters of the Sulu theater, it didn't mean that Yang Ling didn't know Zhou Fu, the director of the political department, who was the Big Three of the Sulu theater headquarters.

He is the third person next to Commander Xuezhong and Chief of Staff Zhou Jingxuan. Zhou Fu, director of the political department with the rank of lieutenant general, is not simply one of the top generals in the theater of decision-making.

He is also a person sent by the Chongqing Military Commission to the Sulu War Zone, and he can be regarded as a supervising army, because none of the troops in the Sulu War Zone are directly descended from Chairman Jiang of the Military Commission. Metaphor.

"Sir, why don't you lock him up for interrogation first, there are a lot of scammers these days."

A dignified lieutenant general did not stay in the safe theater headquarters, but just waited for a few guards to arrive at the front line. This makes people really unbelievable, so Liu Sheng, who is in charge of intelligence, does not believe that Zhou Fu, the director of the political department, will really say no. Say hello to Jieshou.

"Which of you has seen Director Zhou Fu?" Yang Ling asked, looking at the officers in the room.

Everyone shook their heads in unison. After all, they were considered undeniable figures in the Northern Subei Corps, but if they wanted to talk to someone like General Zhou Fu, their level was more than one notch lower.

Text Chapter 28 First Meeting

"Director Zhou, this man surnamed Yang is too arrogant. Who is he, and dared to leave us here for almost half an hour. I think he doesn't want to be the captain anymore!"

In the living room of the town hall in Jieshou Town, several people in gray cotton padded jackets were sitting here, and the water in the tea cups had been refilled several times.

Yang Ling's delay in showing up made a major and adjutant who followed the director of the political department, General Zhou Fu, to the capital of the capital seem a little impatient.

"Sir, please drink tea, please drink tea..."

Qian Fuming, the clerk who was temporarily transferred to be in charge of receiving the guests at the ceremony, saw the major officer's impatient expression, and was so anxious that his forehead was sweating, but he couldn't help it. He had already sent someone to notify Yang Ling, but he didn't come for a long time. , He didn't withdraw, he could only stay here and refill the tea over and over again.

"Drink tea, drink tea, you know how to add more tea for us, this tea is tasteless--" Another arrogant adjutant put his teacup on the table heavily, also very dissatisfied.

"Excuse me, sirs. I'll send someone to see if Chief Yang is back. The main reason is that Chief Yang is too busy with military affairs. We just fought with the devils. We don't have enough manpower. All aspects need to be handled by Chief Yang himself. , please bear with me if you are negligent..." Qian Fuming delayed the time as tactfully as possible.

"Hurry up and call the man surnamed Yang over. You have neglected Director Zhou, and you won't have any good fruit from him!" the major's adjutant urged.

"Hey, why are you so anxious? Everyone said that the military is busy. It's only been half an hour, and you can't sit still?"

Seeing the impatient look of his adjutant, General Zhou Fu, the director of the political department, sat there calmly.

"Director Zhou, it's not that we're in a hurry. I think this man surnamed Yang puts his tail up in the sky after a victory, and doesn't take you seriously..." the major's adjutant explained with aggrieved expression.

General Zhou Fu, director of the political department of the war zone, smiled and said: "I don't think there is any neglect. This is accompanied by someone, and there is good tea. We came here uninvited. It can be said that people don’t talk about us and take it seriously, if you can’t sit still, you can go outside for a walk.”

The two adjutants looked at each other, they both shrank their necks, the cold wind was howling outside, who would want to suffer outside.

Qian Fuming breathed a sigh of relief when he saw General Zhou Fu, the director of the Political Department, open his mouth. He didn't expect this officer to be so talkative, otherwise he really didn't know how to deal with it.

"Go and do your work too, we'll just sit here and wait a little longer."

Seeing that Qian Fuming was still standing beside him with a smile, General Zhou Fu, director of the Political Department, waved him to do the work.

"Yes, sir."

Qian Fuming withdrew from the room as if he had received an amnesty, and hurriedly summoned the guards, telling them to go and see what was going on with Yang Ling, and they hadn't come here yet.

At this moment, surrounded by a group of staff officers, Yang Ling strode in towards the courtyard of the town office.

Seeing that Yang Ling had finally passed, Qian Fuming rushed to meet him as if he had found a backbone.

"Mr. Yang, if you don't come here again, I don't know what to do." Qian Fuming also reported to Yang Ling with a bitter face.

Yang Ling smiled and said, "Why, what else can be difficult?"

Qian Fuming smiled wryly and shook his head: "Director Zhou has a good temper, but the two adjutants he brought with him are not good birds, they have been teasing and speaking ill of you, sir."

Yang Ling waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I've worked hard on you, you go and prepare the meals first, I'll go right away."

"Then what standard is the dinner prepared for?" Qian Fuming asked Yang Ling. After all, this is the lieutenant general director of the theater command, so he can't be neglected.

After thinking for a while, Yang Ling ordered: "Let's prepare according to our usual meals, and see if we can get a fish and a braised fish, and make a few pots of knives, so that we can warm up in this weather."

"Yes, I'll go get ready now." After Qian Fuming wrote it down, he strode away immediately.

Only then did Yang Ling tidy up his wrinkled military uniform, took a deep breath, and strode towards the living room.
