On the last day of the 28th year of the Republic of China, the officers and men of the military headquarters of the Fifth Army and the units directly under the army finally marched to their destination, Quanzhou, Guangxi, after more than four days of marching.
The officers and men of the Fifth Army's military headquarters have been tossing and turning in the past four days, and nearly 10,000 troops, using both foot and vehicles, have finally driven to Quanzhou, and compared with the brothers of the Fifth Army, the brothers of the 200th Division and the New 22nd Division are much more miserable.
The 200th Division was stationed in Qiyang, more than 600 kilometers away from Guinan, and the destination of the new 22nd Division was Dong'an, which was better than the 200th Division, but it was also more than 500 kilometers.
According to Shangfeng's order, the Honorable First Division of the Fifth Army was transferred and left the structure of the Fifth Army, and at the same time left the Fifth Army system, as well as Zheng Dongguo, the division commander of the division.
It is rumored that in view of the needs of the war situation and the performance of the Fifth Army in this battle, the upper authorities are ready to form a new infantry corps based on this division, that is, for the time being, the Fifth Army has only two infantry divisions.
The news of the transfer of the 1st Rong Division spread on the march, and the officers of the 5th Army Headquarters and the troops directly under the army had different thoughts, and the transfer of the 1st Rong Division this time was a signal that the establishment of the army had begun to change, so would the personnel adjustment in the army be far away?
This is not a superficial adjustment but a redistribution of power, including military power, financial power, and personnel power, and the military department and the officers directly under the army who performed well in this campaign have faint expectations in their hearts, some hope to seize military power, and some hope that they can be promoted to the next level; as for the officers with mediocre performance, most of them are "emotionally stable, have no desires and no desires," and similarly, there are some officers who are worried that their positions will be topped by others.
In short, the minds are different.
Along the way, I had to ask who was the most tired and hard-working in the troops, and I was afraid that it was none other than the newly promoted Lieutenant Colonel Zhang Wei and the officers and men of his teaching brigade.
In the past few days, Zhang Wei has led a team to strictly guard the marching contingent, keeping an eye on nearly 10,000 officers and soldiers.
In more than four days, Zhang Wei caught more than 200 deserters and saved more than 300 frail soldiers who fell behind due to physical exhaustion and injuries.
Among the deserters, there were all parts, those who supplemented the first and second regiments of the army, the search infantry of the chariot regiment, the combat defense artillery battalion, and even the organ soldiers who were literate and hyphenated and worked in the military headquarters.
During the march, it happened to be the peak period of deserters, and at the height of the battle, some people stared at the complicated situation on the battlefield, and few people dared to escape, but now that the battle is over, the situation has stabilized, and some deserters who are active in their minds are thinking about taking the opportunity to escape.
The vast majority of the ordinary soldiers of the Fifth Army, like the national army, were the vast majority of the strong men forcibly recruited from the rear military divisions, and the rough and coercive way of enlisting and the difficult military life doomed the probability of desertion to inevitably increase.
Chief Du gave Zhang Wei this task because he had already predicted the emergence of this situation.
After an investigation, it was found that more than 40 of the more than 200 deserters had attempted to escape many times, and according to the order of Commander Du, those who had escaped twice or more were shot on the spot.
These 40 or so people, all of whom were the guns of the teaching brigade, were all shot on the side of the road.
And the bloody human heads, sure enough, were the best deterrent, and after teaching the brigade to shoot a large number of deserters, the number of escapees in the marching ranks plummeted In the evening, when the moon was scarce, the officers and men of the teaching brigade who had been tossing and turning for several days in the barracks of the military headquarters of the Fifth Army on the outskirts of Quanzhou and had served as the field gendarmerie for several days happily entered the clean and tidy barracks.
Stained with the light of the military headquarters, the barracks distributed by the teaching brigade have been packed up by the personnel of the left-behind units of the Fifth Army, and Quanzhou was originally one of the garrisons of the Fifth Army, and there are many left-behind personnel, so they are divided into the barracks that have been cleaned up, and the brothers of the teaching brigade only need to move in directly.
In the barracks, gun racks, board beds, and clean bedding are all available, and the rooms have long been cleaned and tidy; after the officers and men of the teaching brigade arrived at the barracks, the left-behind personnel who had been waiting for a long time also brought food and hot water to the teaching brigade, and the level of treatment was quite high.
Zhang Wei was at the gate of the barracks, organizing the soldiers of all parts to enter the barracks.
"Captain, the materials have been counted, and there is no shortage at all" He Kun was outside the warehouse next to the barracks and shouted towards Zhang Wei.
"Good" Zhang Wei replied.
The storehouse was filled with nothing else, but all the materials, ammunition and goods of the teaching brigade, and all the belongings that Zhang Wei had saved before the troops attacked were kept in the warehouses of the new 22nd Division.
Now that the unit has been transferred, the structure has been changed, and the military headquarters of the Fifth Army and the new 22nd Division have just completed the handover work, Qiu Maniac is quite reluctant and regretful for the transfer of Zhang Wei and the teaching brigade, but he did not raise any objections, but readily agreed, and by the way, he returned the materials retained by the teaching brigade.
The old commander's cheerful promise, so that Zhang Wei was very moved, Qiu madman did this, the intention Zhang Wei also knew that Zhang Wei arrived at the military department, the future of development is greater, Qiu madman obviously did not want to delay Zhang Wei, so he readily agreed to transfer Zhang Wei and the teaching brigade to the unit, sent away a strong army at hand, and sent back the materials of the teaching brigade from afar, in a sense, it is also a wordless encouragement to Zhang Wei, Qiu Madman, a hot-tempered officer, can be regarded as extremely cultivated for himself, with good intentions, Zhang Wei has nothing to repay, Only with a better record can we repay this old chief.
The officers and men of the teaching brigade happily lived in the barracks, put down their bags, and He Kun and the officers and men of the replatoon laughed and laughed outside the warehouse, and the atmosphere was relaxed.
Zhang Wei at the door of the barracks raised his head, looked at the night sky, transferred out of the original unit, was promoted to lieutenant colonel, and became a red man in the army directly under the army.
Tomorrow will be the third year of Zhang Wei's arrival in this era, the twenty-ninth year of the Republic of China.
