"Old Zhang, you mean...you mean..."

Tian Guozhong, who was both happy and shocked, looked at Zhang Qingshan in disbelief, and then looked at Hu Yingze, who was smiling beside him. For a moment, he was a little stuttering, and in the end, he didn't say that sentence.

However, everyone is a soldier and is very clear about the tricks here: under normal circumstances, the battalion level is not qualified to set up a staff officer, let alone a chief of staff. At that time, Zhang Qingshan asked Tian Guozhong to be the staff officer of the assault company, and there was no formal staff, but it was just equivalent to an advisor. If you want to have a formal chief of staff, you must reach the regiment level.

There has been no further information on where Zhang Qingshan and Hu Yingze went. Now, first, Zhang Qingshan couldn't help but reveal a trace of the wind, which surprised Tian Guozhong - according to normal procedures, Zhang Qingshan and Hu Yingze would only rise. Then, this question was raised, that is, Zhang Qingshan might have to be the leader of the regiment, otherwise, Zhang Qingshan would have nothing to do to ask him if he would be the chief of staff?

"Old Tian, ​​this is what you said, it has nothing to do with me. What bad things are coming out of my life? It alarmed the organization. The organization sent someone to investigate, but it has nothing to do with me."

This is not nice, but the problem is that, combined with the previous words and the current atmosphere, it almost means one thing: Lao Tian, ​​you guessed it right, but I can't admit it for other reasons now - I don't object, I just admit it. In addition, Zhang Qingshan also warned him not to say it randomly, just know it, and Tian Guozhong certainly knew what to do.

"Old Zhang, Lao Hu, don't worry, this matter will not come out until the final result is released! It should be said that if I, Tian Guozhong, can swear to heaven, will never reveal a word."

Zhang Qingshan was about to advise him not to be so serious. After all, although this matter was to be kept confidential, the problem was that it was to reveal some confidence in advance with his future confidant assistant, which also reflects the importance of it, right? So, there is really no need to swear or something.

But unexpectedly, Qi Zixuan, who was beside him, also woke up and raised his hand and shouted: "I swear, I promise not to reveal a word."

"Okay, everyone is brother and comrade. I have been chewing in the same pot for so long. I may chew together again in the future. Is it necessary to be so polite? Just know what to do."

Seeing that Hu Yingze could not stop him, he had to go with the flow.

"Yes! Lao Zhang is right. Everyone is always partners. If you want to work together again in the future, there is no need to be so disgusted." After Hu Yingze said this with a smile, he gradually said with a serious look: "However, this matter is still in discussion. Although you are a little sure, you also know that there is a possibility of accidents in everything. So, Lao Tian and Lao Qi, this matter is still in the confidential stage. I hope you know what to do, so that some people think that we are promoted too fast and cannot see it, and invisibly give us resistance. Otherwise, if things fail, wouldn't we make a joke?"

"Old Hu, Lao Zhang, don't worry, what we said today will not be said in the future until the appointment letter is released."

"Yes, don't worry, Lao Tian and I still understand these principles and rules very well."

All of them laughed.

"Old Hu, Lao Zhang, Lao Qi is the chief of staff, then I? You guys won't forget me, my brother, right?"

In the initial assault company, Wang Wu, the platoon leader of the first row, who had already died, was a irritable general like Zhang Fei, while Qi Zixuan was both brave and calm, and was a profitable general in Zhang Qingshan's mind. Therefore, once he became the leader of the regiment, he would definitely be reused. Besides, even if there were people recommended by others, he would definitely not be familiar with them in a short period of time. How could the old man be so well-known and so easy to use.

"Old Qi, we were chewing food in the same class. After being together for so long, I know you the most. Naturally, I won't let people like you go and use someone recommended by others. So don't worry, Lao Hu and I discussed it. Once appointed, you will be the battalion commander of our new regiment."

"That's great." Qi Zixuan patted his thigh hard, showing his inner excitement.

But Tian Guozhong, who was standing by, thought further, or deeper.

"Old Hu, Lao Zhang, if Lao Qi and I leave at the same time, what should we do if our assault company? Have the superiors considered this?"

"Yes! In the current assault company, one-third of the talents have joined for a few months, and the old man has left another group. If it were Lao Tian and I..."

"Old Qi, wait a moment." Zhang Qingshan asked in surprise when he heard this: "I remember when we walked out of the water and grassland, we had only eighty-six people left in the assault company, and I and Lao Hu. Then, in order to add backbone to each company, we drew up more than ten people. In the past few months, why did another group of people leave?"

After Qi Zixuan glanced at Tian Guozhong, he smiled bitterly at Zhang Qingshan and said, "Isn't this accusation company of our assault company's popularity in the Yan'an competition and is jealous of people."

"What's going on, tell me."

"When other brothers saw that our assault company was powerful, they came to learn from the scriptures. As a result, none of them could get the scriptures from us, so they went to find the chiefs. The chiefs said that they were all brothers and revolutionary teams, how could they hide their own private affairs? So, they sent three people to each family, and they must be old people and backbones. Even the teaching corps had to be sent... They said they were sent to teach them to set up troops similar to our assault company, but we all knew in our hearts that this was a meat bun to beat dogs - there was no return. Just like them, they dared to tie people without sending people. If they were sent, they would not expect to come back at all. But in this way, nine more... The elite and old backbones lost so much at once, so that the current assault company urgently needed training and precipitation. So we were worried that once Lao Tian and I were leaving, wouldn't we drain the blood of our assault company?"

"Yes! Lao Zhang and Lao Hu, do you also need to draw a group of backbones from the assault company to supplement them?"

Zhang Qingshan looked at their worried eyes, then looked at Hu Yingze, who was smiling. He had to say, "I won't hide it from you two at this point."

"Old Tian, ​​Lao Qi, we are not going to draw a group of backbones from the assault company, but to pull the entire assault company over. In other words, we are using the assault company as the cornerstone of force to expand a new regiment. Do you understand?"

"Really? It's great." The two asked in unison, cheering in unison, full of excitement. Qi Zixuan took off his hat excitedly, threw it heavily on his thighs, and shouted: "We can fight together again."

"Then you didn't ask the team leader for something?"

"If you want it, why didn't you want it? Lao Hu and I were almost talking. As long as we reach sixteen backbone, in terms of weapons, in order to maintain the combat style and armed forces of our assault company, we can be allowed to retain it, and nothing else will be gone."

“Only sixteen?”

Hu Yingze smiled and said, "Actually, these sixteen places are exactly the number of backbone personnel transferred out of our assault company. So, Lao Zhang and I discussed it and decided to return all the people who were transferred out... What do you two think?"

"I agree." Qi Zixuan spoke immediately. After thinking about it, Tian Guozhong nodded in agreement.

No one mentioned the supplementary funds, weapons and ammunition, because there was no need to ask: The Eighth Route Army was poor. Although the 120th Division was incorporated into the ** combat sequence, it could be Chiang Kai-shek's character and defense against the Red Army. The funds, weapons and ammunition were probably also very lingering, let alone the expanded regiment that was not in the ** combat sequence. Besides, although the name of the Red Army has become the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army, it has only changed its name. The relationship between the military and civilians and the family members of the people has not changed at all. Naturally, in the future, we will have to stand with the people, rely on the people, and still rely on the seizures on the battlefield to obtain supplementary funds. Therefore, it is better not to mention the funds or other things.

Besides, everyone is from the assault company, and has always been arrogant and does not believe it. With the assault company, they cannot pull up a group? They cannot seize the equipment required by a group? Therefore, everyone believes that not only can't cause trouble to the organization, but they must also bring glory to the organization. Otherwise, just wanting to talk about this and that will not only fail to reflect everyone's ability, but will also lose everyone's face.

So, everyone heated up discussing the various conditions required to form a group.

As he was talking, Tian Guozhong suddenly asked, "Old Hu, Lao Zhang, you have been a staff officer in our 17th Division before, and the other has served as deputy commander in another regiment. They have a wide relationship and are familiar with people. Do you not plan to find another regiment to take some tooth sacrifice?"

"Yes, Lao Hu and Lao Zhang, it's not easy for us to ask for things from the division, but we can borrow some equipment from the brothers or borrow a few talents to support and support, that's a good thing!"

"We also think, but we will never get it." Zhang Qingshan smiled and shook his head, saying, "You don't know. I heard that this time, each regiment has an expanded task. Some are to supplement new recruits, and some are to support a new regiment like we do. So, at this time, you want to get some support from others. Do you think they may give it? However, during war, you can also ask for additional personnel."

Tian Guozhong nodded, thought for a while, and asked, "Old Hu, Lao Zhang, first, I thank you for your respect for me so much, but to be honest, although I learned how to be a staff officer in the military academy, after I graduated from school, I would only be a company commander at most, and I didn't have the chance to intern at all. So, I'm afraid that I will suddenly become a chief of staff, and I'll be laughing at it. So, you see, are you reporting to the organization and let me be a staff officer first, learn and learn, and let the superior send a chief of staff over?"

Zhang Qingshan patted Shimota Guozhong on the shoulder and smiled and said, "Laotian, don't be so troublesome. Lao Hu and I have thought about it. Isn't it just to study and exercise? Simple, we will ask the regiment commander tomorrow to ask you to go to the regiment headquarters to be a staff officer for a while, and let Lao Qi go to another battalion to be the deputy battalion commander."

"That would be great."

"But, Lao Tian, ​​Lao Qi, I'm going to study. You are not really asking you to be staff officers and battalion commanders. Don't be happy at that time, then I'm going to curse myself."

"Ha! Ha! Don't worry, even if you don't say it, I will run back secretly."

Next, everyone will continue to discuss...
Chapter completed!
