Chapter 110: Co-optation


Ding Ning saw that the atmosphere at the scene was cold, and hurriedly glanced at Zhou Wu.

At this time, Zhou Wu was also in a hurry, and when he saw Ding Ning glaring at him, he felt that he should go in person, otherwise this military meeting would not be able to go on.

Zhou Wu coughed deliberately, and the officers who were talking in a whisper suddenly quieted down, they knew that this was the brigade seat to speak, and they all pricked up their ears and didn't blink their eyes, as if they were afraid of missing something.

"Ladies and gentlemen, just now Commander Wang and Commander Liu both expressed their respective opinions, I think both of these opinions have a certain amount of truth, and it is no wonder that Commander Liu looks down on those stragglers who have withdrawn from the front line."

"We encountered this once before when we were guarding the Luodian position.

The fleeing soldiers shamelessly knelt down and begged in order to get us out of the way.

Since ancient times, men have gold under their knees, and a manly husband can never bend his knees to others when he kneels to the sky and his parents. ” "But those deserters knelt down and kowtowed to us in order to escape from the battlefield as soon as possible, this kind of person is a soft bone and a wreck, and it is this kind of person that I despise the most in Zhou Wu's life."

"Today they can kneel down to us in order to escape for their lives, and in the future, they can kneel down to the little devils in order to survive, and then help the devils to harm the people and do bad things that have lost their conscience."

"But have you ever thought about it, if the national army is full of people who are greedy for life and afraid of death, how can we resist the devils on the Songhu battlefield for three months Although we have now withdrawn to Changshu, there are still a considerable number of national army troops here to continue to resist the Japanese army."

This shows that most of the soldiers of the national army can fulfill their duties as soldiers.

As long as those of us who are officers are kind to them and treat them well, I think most soldiers are also patriotic. ” Zhou Wu said a lot in one breath, he felt that his throat was a little tired, so he paused here.

The officers below listened to Zhou Wu's words, and began to talk in a whisper below.

To tell the truth, most of those who fled from the Shanghai front line were those who regularly withheld soldiers' salaries.

The officers of these units colluded with each other and acted in an embarrassed manner, and tried every means to deduct the soldiers' salaries, some even deducted the pensions of the soldiers who died in battle, and often beat and scolded the soldiers, so that the lower-ranking soldiers dared not speak out in anger and had nowhere to appeal.

In this way, at a critical moment, there will inevitably be a large-scale rout of soldiers to the rear.

It also blames them, if those officers had been a little nicer to their soldiers, things would not have come to this point.

No wonder the little devils laugh at the poor combat effectiveness of the national army all day long, but in fact, the backwardness of individual soldiers' tactical literacy and weapons and equipment can be completely compensated for by morale.

If the troops lose their morale and fighting spirit, it is useless to give them the most advanced weapons.

On the contrary, if there is a very high-spirited army, they can still burst out into an astonishing and terrifying combat force, even if they do not have decent weapons and supplies.

In the civil war, wasn't the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army led by the Communist Party a living example of this, some of these Red Army soldiers did not even have the old Hanyangzao, and they did not even have shoes on their feet, but they were still able to break the encirclement and suppression launched by the Nationalist Army four times in a row.

Even after losing the Fifth Anti-Encirclement and Suppression Campaign, they did not give up, but relied on tenacious perseverance and strong fighting spirit to climb snow-capped mountains and cross grasslands, and finally reached northern Shaanxi, achieving a phased victory.

The Red Army guerrillas who remained in the south also stubbornly survived the harsh environment of being surrounded by the Nationalist army at various levels and clearing the wilderness.

It is also the Chinese army, why did the regular troops of the national army passively slack off on the Songhu battlefield, and they collapsed at the touch of a devil, and even worse, the devils were still far away, so they began to flee to the rear It's really thought-provoking to think about.

Zhou Wu quietly listened to the discussion of the officers below, and he felt that only when everyone's thinking was clear, things could be handled easily, and all problems would naturally be solved.

About ten minutes later, when everyone was almost discussed, Zhou Wu said, "Okay, you also talked about it for a lot of time just now.

Now let me sum up, in the future, we must treat those brothers of the national army who have retired from the battlefield equally. ” "Do not laugh at them or look down on them, but do good to them with your heart.

Only in this way can we retain the soldiers, be invincible on the battlefield, and fight bravely to kill the enemy.

These soldiers are innocent, and it is the commander above who is sorry for them first. ” "If we treat them like brothers, I don't believe that we can't influence them," Zhou Wu became more and more excited, and the last sentence was almost said through gritted teeth.

After listening to Zhou Wu's words, everyone applauded, Zhou Wu never deducted a penny of military salary, whether in the former 11th Division or the current Independent Brigade, but from time to time used his salary to pay the soldiers.

This point, whether it is a fat man who loves money like life, or Gao Xiangfa, who has just come to the independent brigade, is so impressed.

The most important thing is that Zhou Wu counts when he speaks, and he will never let go of the reward when he says that he will be rewarded, and he will never let go of the punishment.

These are obvious to all among the officers and men of the brigade.

It is precisely because of these two points that the combat effectiveness of the Independent Brigade is different from that of ordinary troops, and even the little devils who have always been conceited have to look down on the Independent Brigade with admiration.

Therefore, every time he attacks the Luodian position held by the Independent Brigade, the devils must go all out and dare not slack off in the slightest.

Being able to gain the respect of the opponent on the battlefield is the best evaluation of the independent brigade.

Now the applause of these officers is not a slap on the back of Zhou Wu, it is admiration from the heart.

Zhou Wu waved his hand, and then said: "Today, I am here to announce a discipline, in the future, all soldiers of the national army who take the initiative to take refuge or who are incorporated by us must be treated equally, and there must be no double standards, and anyone who violates this discipline will be severely punished." ” "Lao Ding, you and a few staff officers at the brigade headquarters immediately write a notice and post it on the main road, welcoming those soldiers who have retreated from the front line and cannot find their original troops to come to our independent brigade.

Be sure to state the conditions of our treatment. ” "In addition, Gao Xiangfa and Wang Ding, the two of you are responsible for collecting scattered soldiers on the way to the road, and try to persuade them to join the independent brigade, if you really don't want to continue fighting, you register them in the register, and each of you will send some travel expenses for them to return to their hometowns."

"Some of them are injured, Captain Shen, you bother to arrange treatment, I believe that people's hearts are long, and we will definitely be able to influence them to return to the anti-Japanese battlefield."

Shen Lina responded: "Report to the brigade, our health company will not rest, and we will ensure that we will complete the task of treating the wounded." ” Although Shen Lina is a female military doctor, when she accepted the task assigned by Zhou Wu, she did not have the twist of an ordinary woman at all, and her answer was crisp and sonorous.

Zhou Wu listened and nodded appreciatively at her.

Ding Ning, who was next to him, was also very satisfied when he saw his wife so heroic.

Ding Ning was secretly happy in his heart, he couldn't imagine that he was lucky enough to marry such a sensible wife as a nerd, which could be regarded as a blessing that he had cultivated for eight lifetimes.

Soon, quite a few officers made it clear that they would obey the brigade and resolutely enforce the new discipline.

Zhou Wu glanced at the fat man without a trace, the fat man was quite clever, he saw Zhou Wu looking at himself, and hurriedly stepped forward to say: "Report to the brigade, you can rest assured, I promise to strictly implement the order, in order to show determination, I announce the donation of a month's salary to support the decision-making of the brigade." ” The fat man is a well-known money fan in the whole brigade, and he is a master who is eager to break a copper plate into two halves, and today he offered to donate a month's salary on the spot, like a thunderbolt from the sky, and suddenly everyone was stunned, and his face was incredible.

"This is really the sun hitting the west and coming out, when will the money fans think about it" Everyone secretly slandered in their hearts.

Everyone thinks that even an iron rooster like a fat man has donated a month's salary, and if they haven't expressed it at all, they can't say it.

If they fall behind the fat people who are obsessed with wealth and spread out, how can they still have the face to mix in the national army So, driven by the fat man, everyone rushed to donate their salaries.

Zhou Wu also donated a month's salary, but was forcibly returned by Ding Ning for half a month.

"Lvza, you have donated two months' salary, you let your sister-in-law drink the northwest wind, brothers, you say, should you give back half a month's money from Lvza?"

"Travelers often donate money, so let's get rid of it this time."

The officers below unanimously supported Ding Ning, and Zhou Wu had no choice but to give up.

After everyone donated their salaries, Zhou Wu immediately ordered these funds to be handed over to Ding Ning to be responsible, he used to do this kind of thing, and everyone believed him.

After Ding Ning received the order, he said: "Okay, now let's talk about the specific combat deployment and the combat missions of each regiment. ” As soon as they heard that Ding Ning was going to assign a task, everyone immediately held their breath and pricked up their ears to listen.

"Liu Xiaolei's division of the first regiment of the independent brigade defended the front of the fortifications in Changshu, and in view of the fact that the existing strength of the first regiment was only more than 800 people, the brigade headquarters decided to merge Wang Ding's three regiments into one regiment.

Liu Xiaolei is the head of the regiment, and Wang Ding is the deputy head of the regiment.

I ask you if you have the confidence to hold the frontal position," Ding Ning said seriously.

The fat man heard that the brigade headquarters had assigned Wang Ding's three regiments to him for command, and the two regiments together had nearly 3,000 people.

For a while, he was a lot more confident.

"Report to the brigade seat and the chief of staff, no problem, if my old Liu can't hold the position, you cut off my head."

Fat people always like to make military orders in front of the battle.

But Zhou Wu didn't like his fat head, and he repeatedly discussed with Ding Ning for an afternoon yesterday before making this decision. t1706231537:
