Chapter 37 Inspection by the Chief
With the victory of the fifth encirclement and suppression of the Jiangxi Red Army, Chairman Jiang began to free up his hands to rectify the warlord forces in various provinces. Chen Tiaoyuan, the Anhui warlord, was promoted to the President of the Senate of the Military Commission, and reorganized the former Anhui troops. In order to firmly grasp these troops in his own hands, Chairman Jiang took out a large number of officers from the direct Central Military Academy Teaching Corps, the 87th and 88th Divisions, and filled them into these troops.
The 528th Regiment where Chen Xiuwen was located was promoted to the regiment commander. Nearly one-third of the battalion-level officers, including the first battalion commander, were removed. Chen Xiuwen's first company was temporarily released, and no one was in charge for a whole month. Chen Xiuwen was also happy to be in charge of training.
On that day, Sun Yuanliang, the commander of the 88th Division, went to the 264th Brigade to inspect defense. Although Sun Yuanliang is not very famous, he is extremely good at being a human being. Although Chen Xiude was unknown when he was studying in Huangpu, he had no ambitions and said that he would not lead troops. In addition, he was a fellow townsman of Principal Jiang, so he was quite trusted by the principal. In Sun Yuanliang's eyes, his old classmate was a close minister of the emperor. Chen Xiuwen is now in his 88th Division, so Sun Yuanliang naturally would not miss this opportunity to show good to Chen Xiude. Of course, the old classmate's younger brother had to take care of him.
"Brother Jingzhong, how is Chen Xiuwen's situation?" Accompanied by officers above the 264th Brigade, Sun Yuanliang asked Huang Meixing with a smile.
Huang Meixing was stunned. Although Chen Xiuwen was asked by General Zhang, the 264th Brigade removed the most officers this time. Before he could even get enough time, Huang Meixing, as the brigade commander, was also very busy and had no time to inquire about Chen Xiuwen's situation. He quickly turned to Zhu Chi and asked, "How is Chen Xiuwen's situation?"
There have been too many personnel adjustments during this period. Zhu Chi is a new official and has not had enough time to go to see the company. The company said in embarrassment: "Teacher, brigade, Chen Xiuwen is now the company commander of the first battalion and company of our regiment. At present, the current situation is not clear. However, after hearing the following reaction, the company's recent training seems to be very exciting."
"I don't know what, it seems that you, the regiment commander, don't even know the situation of the company commander below." Huang Meixing didn't ask why, and immediately scolded dissatisfiedly.
Zhu Chi followed Huang Meixing for many years and was also a senior Huangpu, so she had to lower her head and dare not argue.
"Okay, Brother Jingzhong. No wonder Youqing, he has been busy recently." Sun Yuanliang said with a smile: "Didn't Youqing say just now? Chen Xiuwen seems to have done a good job, so why don't we go and have a look together."
A group of senior officers from the 88th Division went to the first company's base. When they were about to arrive, they heard the loud shouts of killing on the playground of the first company. Sun Yuanliang turned to Huang Meixing and smiled and said, "Listen to the momentum, it seems that the ninth-class top scorer you dug up is really good."
Just as these high-ranking officials were walking in a swagger, a second-class soldier standing guard at the door stopped them nervously.
"Bastard, don't you know who I am?" Zhu Chi, who was leading the way in front, pointed at her nose and scolded her.
The private may have never seen so many high-ranking officials, and quickly saluted and said, "Report to the sir, I don't know where the sir is. However, you must show your ID when entering the military camp."
This second-class private was a new recruit. Although he looked very nervous, he still insisted not to let them in.
The Sentinel's actions surprised Sun Yuanliang. He has been in the army for so many years and has never been pulled down by the Sentinel in his own army.
He walked up and waved his hand, stopping Zhu Chi from scolding the sentry, and asked with interest: "It is right for you to stand guard to check the ID. Do you also need to check the IDs of those of us?"
The one before was the colonel, and now the one standing in front of him was another light board and a star. The sentry seemed even more nervous, but he still replied: "Report to the commander, our company commander said that no matter who he was, you must check the documents when entering the military camp. To prevent someone from disguising himself in the military camp and spy on the information."
A slight burst of laughter suddenly came from the crowd. Where is Nanjing? The important place in Jingji. Besides, is a small company-level garage worthy of the enemy's spy on intelligence?
However, Sun Yuanliang and Huang Meixing did not smile, looked at each other, and frowned slightly.
"What did your company commander really say?" Sun Yuanliang continued to ask.
The sentry seemed a little unhappy when he saw this light board Yixing, and hurriedly said: "Report to the commander, our company commander said that Japan is now undesirable to China and should prevent them from spying on our intelligence. We are the guards of the capital, and we are the guards of the capital and Chairman Chiang. If we put them in the past, we will be the Imperial Guard, so we must be more vigilant."
Sun Yuanliang and Huang Meixing couldn't help but nodded at the same time. No one of the officers of the 88th Division who were following behind dared to laugh at this time.
"Listen, listen to it. Don't you understand the truth that a little private understands? Laugh! I see you can still laugh." Sun Yuanliang turned his head and scolded the officers who accompanied the inspection.
Sun Yuanliang has a good temper and rarely scolds him so severely, especially in public. The officers lowered their heads one by one and dared not say anything. The sentry looked at the high officials in front of him at a loss.
"Little brother, don't be afraid. You did a good job just now and strictly enforced your company commander's orders." Sun Yuanliang turned his head and said to the sentry with a smile. As he said that, he took the initiative to take out his ID from his pocket and handed it to the sentry.
The sentry opened it and saw that his hand shook, and almost dropped the ID. Although he could not recognize the words on the ID, he still knew the National Emblem of the Blue Sky and White Sun and the Commander of the 88th Division.
The sentry immediately stood at attention, handed back the ID with both hands, and said with trembling lips: "Teacher......Teacher."
Sun Yuanliang took the ID in surprise and asked, "Are you literate?"
In Sun Yuanliang's impression, most soldiers are illiterate, and those who are literate will generally focus on training. If you are a clerk or a squad leader, you will rarely be the lowest private.
"Report and report to the teacher. We have literacy classes every night, so we know a few words."
"Why, do you still have a literacy class?" Sun Yuanliang asked in surprise.
"Yes, division commander. Our company commander said that an army without education will win a battle. Therefore, all brothers must be literate and arithmetic. Every night, the horses in the company will teach us."
Not to mention that Sun Yuanliang was surprised, even Huang Meixing was stunned and rushed to ask, "What else did your company commander say?"
Seeing that there was another star on the light board, the sentry hurriedly said, "Report to the commander, our company commander has said too much. He also said that sooner or later we will have a battle with Japan. The most important task for us soldiers now is to practice the ability to kill the enemy and drive the Japanese out in the future."
"Okay, your company commander said it well." Sun Yuanliang couldn't help but sigh. Then he smiled and said, "It seems that you all support your company commander."
Speaking of Chen Xiuwen, the sentry couldn't help but shine in his eyes: "Of course, our company commander said that everyone should share blessings and suffer difficulties. He not only trained with us and ate, but also took out all his salary to subsidize his brothers' food. The veterans said they had never seen such a good commander."
It turned out that Chen Xiuwen took out his salary to subsidize food. Under his intentional or unintentional instruction, Ma Congping and others had already promoted it among the soldiers. During this period, the officers and soldiers had a strict hierarchy. Of course, the soldiers below supported Chen Xiuwen, who set an example everywhere, did not take greed or took out his own money.
However, the Sentinel was also overly excited, and the last sentence made all the officers present feel a little uncomfortable.
"Nonsense, what do you mean that you have never seen such a good commander?" Seeing this, Zhu Chi hurriedly stepped forward and scolded: "I am your regiment commander. You should inform Chen Xiuwen immediately and let him come out to welcome the teacher's seat and the brigade seat."
