The father of the sword is Kong Jie

Chapter 891 Mobilization
……

January [-]th.

big cold.

As the old saying goes, the cold is not cold and the cold is great. On this day, almost the entire west and northwest, the temperature dropped to the extreme.

A month ago, as if God followed the trend of the times, the heavy snow that fell for a team's winter counterattack had not completely melted, and then some light snow fell sparingly, and more snow piled up one after another.

The extreme cold in winter makes it difficult for the snow to melt. Once it falls, it may only gradually melt away after the temperature rises completely.

Inside a team headquarters.

Despite having a warm kang and even adding a briquette stove, Kong Jie still couldn't help rubbing his hands to keep warm in the extremely cold weather.

Pushing open the door, there was a gust of cold wind blowing like a knife cutting his face, Kong Jie couldn't help shivering, and steam came out of his mouth and nose when he spoke:

"Cen Shen of the Tang Dynasty said in a poem that the north wind blows the ground and the white grass breaks, and the wind blows the red flag frozen and cannot be turned over, etc., to describe the extreme cold weather, I think it is nothing more than that!"

The woman on the side smiled, "After the severe cold, this year's Spring Festival will be less than a week away. Commander Kong, how do our frontline soldiers spend the Spring Festival? Do we still have to continue training and fighting?" ?”

Kong Jie turned his head to look at the woman in front of him.

It was Shen Wenyue, a field reporter of the Eighth Route Army who was still staying in the base of the first team.

Shen Wenyue's personal interview with Kong Jie has already passed.

It stands to reason that she should return to the headquarters, but she applied for a temporary stay in a team.

So recently I have been helping out in the propaganda department of a team.

Strengthen the Eighth Route Army's anti-Japanese propaganda offensive, and attack the Japanese army from speech.

"In the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, the conditions of our Eighth Route Army troops were relatively poor. When the winter was the coldest, let alone the New Year, it was considered good if we could survive this winter without being frozen to death."

Kong Jie rubbed his hands and said to Shen Wenyue.

"Later, the conditions were slightly better. When winter was the coldest, especially when a heavy snow fell, the frequency of fighting between us and the Japanese army would be reduced to a minimum, and there were basically no large-scale battles.

With the base area relatively stable, qualified troops can improve the food for the cooking squad and allow the soldiers to enjoy the joy of the New Year.

If there is no food condition, our cadres will still ask the soldiers to find a way to post some red paper, at least to put on a Chinese New Year flavor. "

Kong Jie’s words were mixed with emotion: “War is never about gold and iron horses, the heroism of ordering troops on the battlefield, but the tragedy of wives and children being separated and families being destroyed.

In this atmosphere, whether it is our soldiers or military cadres, they have actually been living in a rather depressive atmosphere.

This kind of atmosphere will keep our nerves in a tense state. If this continues, problems will arise after a long time, so we need to adjust.

The spirit of revolutionary optimism that our Eighth Route Army has been promoting is to overcome the problem of mental tension!

Everything is for the country, everything is for the faith, even if the comrades and relatives around us fall one by one, we should continue to live for the sacrificed comrades and brothers with a smile, and continue to fight firmly with his son-of-a-bitch! "

Speaking of excitement, Kong Jie couldn't help but swear.

After recovering, he smiled and said to Shen Wenyue: "I'm sorry, I'm used to being rude, Miss Shen, I've made you laugh!"

Shen Wenyue shook her head, her expression mixed with shock and shock:
"Language is meant to express emotions. If some swear words can best express the emotions at that time, then this is the most appropriate and beautiful language!

Commander Kong, what you said is really good. "

Hahaha--

Kong Jie said happily: "Miss Shen, don't let my old comrade Li Yunlong hear what you said, otherwise this kid will be overjoyed, and among our old comrades, he has the most fragmentary words in his mouth.

If he heard what you said just now, he might have a drink with you with a wine bowl, and call you a bosom friend! "

"Commander Li is a straightforward and humorous general!" Shen Wenyue commented.

The two chatted and laughed for a while.

The monk rushed out of the house, "Head, a call is coming, it's from Head Li."

"Hey, I really said that Cao Cao and Cao Cao are coming. We just mentioned Li Yunlong, so here we are!"

Kong Jie smiled and said sorry, then hurried back to the communications department and answered the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Chief of Staff Xu Guoan asked with a smile, "Old Kong, this old Li called again, what's the matter?"

Kong Jie said: "What else can it be? Ask me to borrow the commando!"

"So, Lao Li has already got the information that he plans to destroy the Devil's Artillery Test Site?"

"With the help of the brigade commander's intelligence line, that's for sure." Kong Jie said.

"Communication soldier!"

"To!"

"Go and call Duan Peng over here"

"Yes!"

After a while, Duan Peng rushed to the headquarters. After Kong Jie roughly explained the situation to Duan Peng, Duan Peng immediately said: "Yes, regiment commander, then I will take all the members of the commando team to the new second regiment!"

Kong Jie nodded, and entrusted: "Go, or the same sentence, you have to bring back all the soldiers of our commando team, a lot of them.

In addition, the weather is getting colder and colder. Prepare warm clothes and supplies before departure, so don't get cold and hungry on the road.

I will arrange a motorcycle transport team to take you there, and save some energy on the way. "

"Yes, thank you, leader!" Duan Peng responded, turned and left.

……

On the 23rd, there are three days before New Year's Eve.

The end of the year is approaching, and it is inevitable that more joy and expectations will grow in the hearts of the soldiers.

This is also a moment of fighting spirit.

"Old Kong, after these days of preparation, we plan to attack the Japanese army's Yangguan, the combat troops in Pingbei and Hanoi strongholds, supplies to keep out the cold, logistics supplies after the battle breaks out, secure evacuation channels in advance, and preparation channels, It's all set up.

Just wait for the final order from our headquarters to be issued. "

Chief of Staff Xu Guoan brought news to Kong Jie.

Kong Jie nodded without hesitation, "Okay, let's inform the regiments to set off in sequence according to the pre-planned time and place.

After finishing speaking, Kong Jie greeted the monk, "Monk, prepare a car!"

"Yes!"

"Old Xu, how about going around with me?

Now the scale of our troops is getting bigger and bigger, no more than before, and we can charge with submachine guns and soldiers heartily.

We can't participate in this battle, and the mobilization before the war can't be without our presence.

It is still necessary to talk to the soldiers before the battle begins. "

Xu Guoan said with a smile: "That's very necessary. Who doesn't know that your old Kong has such a powerful mouth? After some battles are mobilized, I estimate that the combat effectiveness of the soldiers can be increased by an additional [-]%!"

Kong Jie laughed out loud, "It's hurting me again, isn't it!"

The monk prepared a large number of small cars, which were seized in a battle against the Japanese army. It is said that they were the special vehicles used by the leader of the devil's army.

The car was driving quickly on the convenient passage leading to each regiment, and soon, it arrived at the station of a regiment first.

Knowing the arrival of Kong Jie and Xu Guoan, Lei Dasheng, who is now officially the head of the first independent regiment, brought his cadres to greet them.

"Old leader, why are you here in person?"

Under the greeting of a group of cadres, Kong Jie strode towards the gathering place before the soldiers set off, and asked, "How is the gathering of the troops?"

"Please rest assured, the old regiment leader, all the companies have assembled, and the logistics and transportation units are all ready.

It is estimated that the battalion commanders are doing the final reorganization and pre-war mobilization at this moment. Since you are here, I just want to say a few words. It would be great if you are sure! "

Kong Jie nodded, and while walking, touched Lei Dasheng's sleeve beside him, "Is it fresh cotton?"

"That's right, it's warm! In such a cold day, we feel warm!" Lei said with a loud laugh.

"Is the cotton coats of the soldiers all in place?"

"It is necessary. Our cadres have never forgotten the principle of our old independent regiment. If the soldiers can't wear cotton padded clothes, those of us who are battalion commanders or regimental leaders will definitely not wear them."

Lei Dasheng spoke eloquently, and even tugged at his cotton padded jacket, saying rather proudly: "As far as what I'm wearing, we soldiers have one set, and there are not many of them.

No matter how cold it is, it won't freeze us! "

"I can rest assured that!"

Kong Jie heaved a sigh of relief. If he insisted on fighting in this severe cold weather, the biggest enemy was not the Japanese army, but the harsh natural environment.

This time, targeting the strongholds of the Japanese army in the northwest of Shanxi, as the target of the attack, once the battle starts, not only will the scale not be small, but the duration may not be short.

A day or two at least, a week or two at most.

After being exposed to the severe cold weather for such a long time, the most feared thing is that the soldiers will suffer from frostbite.

Facing the harsh natural environment, non-combat attrition is the worst situation.

So this time before the battle started, Kong Jie specifically asked the regiments to strengthen their logistical preparations before the battle.

With Kong Jie's clear request:

"Cotton clothes, cotton shoes, cotton trousers, cotton caps, including some camouflage clothing, must be distributed to every soldier participating in the battle. In addition, guns and ammunition suitable for weight, energy bars and food for a few days' supply, etc., should be prepared in advance. "

This is also the reason why Kong Jie dared to launch an attack on the Japanese stronghold in the most severe natural environment.

The soldiers have enough clothing to keep out the cold and adequate logistics support.

In contrast, with the outbreak of the Pacific War, the army's logistics supply has been in short supply for the little devils fighting on two fronts.

Take the First Army stationed in Shanxi as an example, the standard of living of the devils and puppet soldiers is not as good as in previous years.

In the past few days, the weather has become more and more severe, and the devils and puppet soldiers are even shivering in the strongholds and towns all day long.

How dare you brave the severe cold to go to the territory of the Eighth Route Army to do some mopping up?
Under this situation.

This is the time for the fighters to take advantage of the opportunity to fight.

On the assembly site, all the soldiers from each company were already in place.

When they learned that the old regiment leader Kong Jie was going to speak to everyone before the battle, the soldiers all looked forward to it.

The old team leader, Kong Jie, is the absolute benchmark of the entire team, and his name resounds throughout North China. It is the great pride of every team member.

When Kong Jie stood on the high platform, in order to make his voice spread farther, so that his face could be presented more clearly in front of the soldiers.

He took off the cotton cap on his head, faced the cold wind, and almost shouted:

"Comrades, it's getting colder and colder today, are you all cold?"

"not cold--"

Seeing the old regiment leader taking off his cotton cap and speaking to everyone in the cold wind, the soldiers felt warm in their hearts!

I was wearing a cotton coat and a cotton hat, how could I be a little bit cold?

All replied with a growl.

Kong Jie laughed and scolded, "If you say it's not cold, that's bullshit. I'm shivering with cold right now!"

Hahaha--

The soldiers burst into laughter, and kept quiet again at random, listening to the speech of the old regiment leader.

Kong Jie continued: "It's cold, it must be cold, we are cold, and the little devil is fucking colder.

In the past few years, the conditions of our first team have improved. We eat meat and wear cotton clothes.

Guess what happened to the little devil?

It was wearing unlined clothes to bear the cold, and eating radishes and wild vegetables.

That's it, I'm afraid I can't manage two meals a day.

Let's talk about it, little devils like this, can't we fucking deal with them?

...The weather has gotten colder in the past two days, and it looks like the Chinese New Year will be here in a few days.

I was thinking that before the Chinese New Year, we have to create something new. Is there anything more enjoyable than beating up the little devil a few years ago? "

The soldiers laughed and shouted to kill the devil one by one!

As soon as the topic changed, Kong Jie's words became more and more sharp:
"So let's fight, hit me hard! Beat me to death!
The beating made his little devil cry for his father and shouted rape, and the beating made his little devil not even have a good life this year. "

"Comrades, remember, within two days, we will resolve all battles!

It's the third day!

I'm still waiting for the comrades to come back after winning the battle and celebrate the new year together! "

"Kill kill kill—"

The soldiers roared in unison, and the fighting spirit ignited by Kong Jie's words became more and more proud.

Finally, under the watchful eyes of Kong Jie and Xu Guoan, Lei Dasheng, the head of the first regiment, gave an order: Let's go.

Covered in white camouflage, set off quickly like a ghostly white army against the snow everywhere.

After standing upright for a while, Kong Jie and Xu Guoan got into the car again, and continued to rush to the station of the Second Independent Regiment.

This time, according to the order in which the regiments started, the first regiment, the second regiment, and the third regiment set out in sequence, so according to the speed of Kong Jie and his party, there was no time to give a speech to each regiment.

Until we arrived at the station of the second and third regiments, we finished mobilizing with the soldiers respectively, and then watched the soldiers leave.

Only then did Kong Jie and his party return to the detachment headquarters.

within the headquarters.

Around this battle, the military simulation sand table that presents the deployment of both sides and the situation of the enemy and the enemy has already been prepared in advance by the staff.

Kong Jie, Xu Guoan, and Li Wenjie rushed back to the headquarters and sat in command, waiting for the final battle to attack the Japanese stronghold to kick off...
