march to victory

"That defensive position is not perfect yet..."

Standing on the completed fortifications of the Fourth Battalion, Zhang Qingshan looked at the fortifications for a while, pointed to the fortifications on the left, said something, but did not continue, but led everyone quickly to the fortifications on the left .

Before coming to this fortification, Zhang Qingshan looked at it for a while, then stepped on the dirt under his feet, then pointed to the fortification in front of him, and said: "Why do you four battalion and fifth battalion only care about each other? I don't know The importance of cooperation? Don’t you know the importance of the whole?”

It is a good thing to be motivated by competition, but the problem is that if this kind of internal competition develops to hinder each other, it will be a big bad thing-in a powerful group, internal conflicts will always be its biggest shortcoming. Internal conflicts exist, and powerful things are just bunkers on the beach.

Peng Peng, the commander of the fourth battalion, and Li Jing, the commander of the fifth battalion, who accompanied them secretly looked at each other, and they both saw each other's confusion.

As a last resort, Peng Peng had no choice but to boldly ask with a smile: "Leader, when Lao Li and I connected the fortifications, we supervised and worked in person, and didn't dare to be a bit lazy...Leader, me and Lao Li has poor eyesight, please point it out, and we will correct it immediately."

Zhang Qingshan turned his head to look at Peng Peng, then at Li Jing, and said calmly: "You built the fortifications according to the standards, and you worked hard. I have nothing to say about this. But the problem is , you and Lao Li are both battalion commanders, the backbone and leaders of our assault regiment, not soldiers. Soldiers work hard according to the standards, but as battalion commanders, don’t you just know how to work hard? A little bit of the big picture? Don’t you know how to make the most favorable adjustments based on the actual situation?”

After saying this, Peng Peng understood that he had misunderstood what Zhang Qingshan said earlier: the key point of what Zhang Qingshan said earlier was not the first two questions, but the last question.

After all, Peng Peng has come through countless wars, and in terms of experience, he is definitely no worse than others.

No, as soon as he heard this, he looked around the fortifications, and soon he saw the problem.

Pointing to a small hill 30 meters away, he said to Zhang Qingshan, "Commander, what do you mean we should build another bridgehead around that hill?"

Only then did Zhang Qingshan show a bit of a smile, nodded, and said: "Even if the map is more detailed, it is impossible to mark a small mountain bag with a height of one or two meters, so when drawing fortifications on the map, it is very likely I will ignore this seemingly small problem. However, in the actual situation, such a small mountain bag, combined with reality, if used well, can give our fortifications an extra stable line of defense..."

Thinking about it, the assault regiment is not short of weapons, ammunition and troops, but the problem is that Qinglong Mountain is not big in the first place, and the troops seem a bit crowded.But the three lines of defense that have been built now are actually only two and a half, because the outermost fortification and the middle fortification are actually not far apart.However, in front of the fortifications of the fourth battalion and the fifth battalion's defense zone, there is a small hill with a height of one or two meters. The defense line, and more importantly, this is a typical bridgehead... Such a big advantage can't be seen, so it's no wonder that Zhang Qingshan is angry-after all, Li Jing has only joined for a short time and has little experience, especially when building fortifications and combining the actual situation. Looking at the problem, it is not enough in itself, and if you can't see it, it's justifiable.But you, Peng Peng, are not only a veteran, but also a commander with rich command experience and combat experience. You have absolutely sufficient experience in fortifications, but you still haven't thought about using this small mountain bag. You, the battalion commander, have eyes When you reach the sky, do you still just know how to bury your head and work hard?So incompetent.It's just that the battle is imminent, and it's not good for Zhang Qingshan to criticize and punish Peng Peng too much, so as not to affect unity and have a negative impact on morale, so it's just an education.Otherwise, just relying on this point, it would be enough for Peng Peng to conduct a deep review at the whole group meeting.

Peng Peng also thought of this all of a sudden, his expression changed slightly, he stood at attention, and said loudly: "Leader, I committed a negligence that should not have been committed...I will correct it immediately, and please give me a chance to make meritorious deeds and atone for my crime. "

Although Li Jing on the side still couldn't understand, he was an old man after all, and he was absolutely top-notch in observing words and demeanor.

Seeing that Peng Peng's face changed and he immediately admitted his mistake, he quickly stood at attention and said to Zhang Qingshan: "Commander, there is also my fault here, please give me a chance, I will never give us a surprise attack Disgraceful."

"Okay! This is what you two said." Zhang Qingshan turned around abruptly, looked at Peng Peng, and said seriously: "The punishment for you two depends on your performance in this battle. However, before that, you two The two of you must personally lead people to build a strong fortification for me on that hill... I'll say the ugly thing before, if this fortification is not repaired well, the battalion commanders of both of you will stop doing it."

"Yes! Guaranteed to complete the task!"

Just when Zhang Qingshan turned around and was about to look elsewhere, Zhou Baoyu ran over.

"Regimental Commander, Political Commissar, please go to the Regiment Command Post as soon as possible."

Although everyone regards Zhang Qingshan as the head of the regiment both in words and in their hearts, the problem is that Zhang Qingshan is really just the instructor of the assault company.The necessary procedures and rules must be followed.Besides, in the assault group, the only person who could compare with Zhang Qingshan in terms of prestige and qualifications was political commissar Hu Yingze, and now, Hu Yingze was not only the political commissar of the assault group, but also the acting head of the assault group.Therefore, as long as it is an organizational matter, it must be reported to Hu Yingze first, and then after Hu Yingze agrees, it can be transferred to Zhang Qingshan. This is the procedure.

However, it's strange to say, and I don't know what the division is thinking about. Ever since Zhang Qingshan was dismissed and became the company commander of the assault company, and Hu Yingze took the lead, it has been almost three months. As the head of the regiment, he didn't choose someone from the assault group as the head, as if he had completely forgotten about it.Therefore, the political commissar and head of the assault regiment were picked by Hu Yingze alone. Such violations of the rules are very rare among all the regiments of the Eighth Route Army... However, if you think about it carefully, the other reasons are not clear, but One thing is for sure: special things are special!

After all, it was a time of war, and the Eighth Route Army was in urgent need of experienced commanders, and a regiment-level cadre like Zhang Qingshan, who fought ferociously and had very rich combat command experience, was absolutely in need most.In addition to Zhang Qingshan's prestige in the assault regiment, considering the current actual situation, after considering various aspects in the organization, it is estimated that the position of the commander of the assault regiment will not be adjusted for the time being... To put it simply On the other hand, the position of head of the assault regiment may still be left to Zhang Qingshan in terms of organization.In other words, as long as Zhang Qingshan can make military achievements again, sooner or later he will be the head of the regiment again.Even if he wasn't the head of the assault regiment, he was definitely the head of the brothers' troops. There was no doubt about this.

As soon as I walked into the regiment command post, I saw Hu Yingze and Tian Guozhong serving food for three people, persuading them to eat and drink—in fact, there was nothing to eat, just sweet potatoes and porridge, pickled radish and pumpkin, and a plate Braised pork.

After all, it was an old partner. As soon as Zhang Qingshan saw Hu Yingze serving guests with braised pork, Zhang Qingshan understood that something big happened, and these three people were either important leaders or passed important information.Otherwise, with Hu Yingze's frugality, there would never be braised pork, at most shredded pork with green peppers, which is considered a high-end treat.

But looking at the appearance and demeanor of the three people, plus Zhang Qingshan's familiarity with the division leaders, it is basically certain that these three people are not sent by the division headquarters, that is to say, the three people are here to deliver important information of.

"Old Hu, Lao Tian, ​​you two called me here in a hurry, what happened?"

Zhang Qingshan walked over and said with a smile.

But what surprised Zhang Qingshan was that before Hu Yingze and Tian Guozhong could reply, the three who were wolfing down their food immediately looked up in surprise. This uniform movement made Zhang Qingshan feel depressed: Am I so scary? ? .

Especially the young man sitting on the left stood up suddenly and looked at Zhang Qingshan in surprise. He wanted to put down the chopsticks in his hand, but he didn't dare to move them, looking very cramped.But the middle-aged man sitting in the middle asked with a bit of surprise: "You... are you Captain Zhang?"

Well, it doesn't matter if it's surprise or surprise, as long as it's not frightening.

Zhang Qingshan nodded with a smile, and said: "I am not the head of the regiment now, but there were fellow villagers who called me the head of the regiment before."

"Hello, Captain!"

The three immediately stood up, excitedly stood at attention to Zhang Qingshan, and saluted!

After Zhang Qingshan returned the military salute, he pressed his hand to them with a smile, and said, "Sit! Everyone sit! You continue to eat."

"But, Chief, we have..."

"No rush! You have come all the way here, you have worked hard all the way... as the old saying goes, you don't rush food! No matter what big things happen, you have to wait for the comrades to finish their meals. Besides, no matter how urgent you are, don't rush." Anxious for a while... eat with peace of mind, let's talk with peace of mind when we're done eating."

"Yes!"

After the three of them sat down, they continued to eat, but the speed of eating was obviously much faster.Moreover, the three of them raised their heads slightly from time to time, secretly glanced at Zhang Qingshan, and when Zhang Qingshan looked over, the three of them immediately lowered their heads to eat.

For this scene, Zhang Qingshan is very clear about what is going on, and he is inevitably a little proud.

The Assault Regiment grew rapidly from scratch, and by leaps and bounds, not only liberated three counties occupied by little devils, but now even the extremely vicious little devils dare not provoke the Assault Regiment.The illustrious reputation of the Assault Regiment had already spread in this area, and it became more and more popular.As the head of the assault group, Zhang Qingshan is naturally the key target of publicity, he can say anything, even some people say that Zhang Qingshan is the reincarnation of the God of War, with three heads and six arms, invincible in the world, otherwise, why would he not even mention the incomparably ferocious little devil? Dare to provoke him... Who wouldn't admire such a hero?

To put it bluntly, this is the star effect!

Therefore, it is inevitable to be excited when seeing the hero in my heart suddenly.
