Chapter 774

The Four Elements Mission is located eighty or ninety kilometers away from Xuzhou City.

When they returned with a full load of supplies, it was not like the cavalry platoon and the baggage platoon riding on horses and carriages arrived in a few hours. It took a full day and a half, and they did not arrive at the station until the next afternoon.

Seeing his little padded jacket again, the drowsy old Tantai, who was originally nestled in the quilt of the cart, jumped out of the cart like a spirited boy.

It's just that the image is not good!
Looking at the old father with messy hair and unshaven beard, it didn't make Tantai Mingyue feel bad.

As the saying goes, there is no better way to know a daughter than a father, but for a father, a daughter understands the same.

Tantai Yunshu grew up in rich clothes and fine food since he was a child, and he is an artist at the master level, so he can't be an exquisite 'Bo Yi' wherever he goes, how can he look like a tramp now?

That is to say, in Xuzhou City, she took the time to wash her face and comb her hair, otherwise Tantai Mingyue might not even recognize her father!

It's just that Tantai Mingyue obviously misunderstood the enthusiasm of her old father who rushed down from the cart and took her hand. In fact, it was no longer a simple longing for a woman.

But
You know, it's not so easy to get over the hurdle of some bastard holding his hand and calling him 'Dad'.

Many people came out of the station to meet Tang Dao and Lao Tantai, including almost all the captain-level officers of the Four Elements Regiment.

The cavalry platoon had already dispatched two cavalrymen to report back ahead of the main force, and there was not only a large amount of supplies in the return queue, but also Tantai Mingyue's old father.

Regardless of the need to distribute the supplies, but also the face of the great reporter Tantai Mingyue, the company commanders did not dare to neglect, and they left their affairs in hand to greet them.

It's just that no one thought that the old man Tantai would be so straightforward, he didn't even say hello to the big guys, and pulled his daughter to the side to whisper.

This old man is not polite!

"Good girl! Are you and that stinky boy Tang Dao already..." Pulling his daughter, Tantai Yunshu lowered his voice, the little tongue in his throat trembling slightly.

"Already what?" Tantai Mingyue was a little confused by her father's nonsensical question.

No matter how smart she is, she is just an innocent girl, but she can't understand the true intentions hidden in LSP's hesitant to speak.

"That's right, a matter of human relations!" Tantai Yunshu stomped her feet, gritted her back teeth and almost growled.

"Ah?" No matter how generous Tantai Mingyue was, she couldn't help but blush when her father asked her almost bluntly.

But Tang Dao's strong chest appeared in her mind, because she took care of Tang Dao who was in a coma, she had seen almost all of Tang Dao, does this count?

Seeing my daughter being asked such a question, she blushed like a cloud in the sky, and almost made old Tantai have a heart attack.

"You, you, you are going to piss me off, if your mother knows, you will be so pissed off too." Old Tantai had stars in his eyes, and his little tongue made a vibrato.

For the extremely traditional Tantai Yunshu, it's absolutely unacceptable to just leave the cabinet.

If someone handed him a gun at this time, he would kill Tang Dao who jumped off the horse and greeted Lei Xiong and others with a single shot.

Murderous!
Tang Dao felt a chill run down his spine.

Looking around suspiciously, they are all his own soldiers, who wants to fuck him?This is unreasonable.

And Ming Xin, who was standing behind him, frowned involuntarily, and he also felt the extremely strong killing intent, although it was not directed at him.

The back muscles tightened slightly, and there were so many armed guards around, and there were people who wanted to kill, it must be a super master.

The eyes of a certain 'super master' spurted almost scorching anger, and just as he was about to roar, he turned around and chased down the bastard who had harmed his daughter's innocence.

"Dad, what are you talking about! Although he and I really love each other, but he is busy with military affairs, and I am also responsible for taking care of the wounded. We haven't seen each other alone for more than a month. Then" Tantai Mingyue retorted angrily. old father.

The killing intent disappeared.

Mingxin was a little dazed.

He was about to lock down the source of the killing intent, but he said nothing, the strength of this great master was beyond his imagination.

Within the four-element group, it can be said to be a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger!

"My dear girl, you can't lie to my father!" Tantai Yunshu's face softened a lot.

"If you still don't believe me, I'll accompany you home right away. I won't marry for the rest of my life, so I can stay by your side and E'Mu?" Tantai Mingyue replied in a fit of anger.

"That's the old man's mistake, it's fine if it's not there, it's fine if it's not!" Tantai Yunshu smiled broadly.

The stone in his heart finally fell to the ground. He knew that his daughter might be a little stubborn, but she would never lie to him about such a big matter.

Tantai Yunshu, who was in a good mood, came over to greet the officers of the Four Elements Regiment who came to greet him one by one, and was extremely satisfied with the high-standard reception given to him by the Four Elements Regiment.

China has always valued etiquette. Last time, Tantai Yunshu came in a hurry and was stopped by the guards for a long time. This time, he was greeted collectively by famous officers of the Four Elements Regiment. It also showed that his daughter was a hero in the Four Elements Regiment With his status in the regiment, old Tantai didn't have to be radiant.

For the officers and soldiers of the Four Elements Regiment, they were even more excited. Seeing that the head of the regiment brought back so many supplies, including rice, noodles and bacon, they already felt full of happiness. The big guys brought even greater joy.

"The order goes on. Our regiment has enough funds. Tonight, the Military Supplies Department of the Staff Department will check the amount of pensions, rewards, etc. based on the list of military merits and the list of disabled and sacrificed officers and soldiers. Tomorrow morning, it will be distributed together with the military salary of last month." Tang Dao said After returning to the regiment headquarters, this order was issued.

Each battalion and each company received the message, and the entire camp burst into cheers instantly.

Although these soldiers who have followed Tang Dao in bloody battles have never doubted Tang Dao's credit, putting money in the regiment headquarters and putting it in their own pockets are completely different concepts. The latter is not only more reassuring, but also More importantly, they can take the money home when the time is right.

After all, the relatives at home are still waiting for the rice to cook, and they are still waiting for their news. Whether they are dead or alive, they have to give them a letter.

"In addition, inform each battalion and company that there will be an extra meal tonight. Each person will have a bowl of rice, two steamed buns, and a bowl of meat. After tonight, we will go to collect equipment tomorrow. The whole regiment is ready for a long march. "Tang Dao issued the second military order.

The temporary residence of the Four Elements Group was full of laughter again.

Although the whole regiment is about to set off and target the north, that means marching 70 miles a day for at least a month. There will never be a comfortable day like this for a whole day. Executing military orders is the bounden duty of soldiers, and no one is afraid that.

On the battlefield, eating a few bites of baked potatoes is not the same as being a devil for a day?
Compared with that, there are rice, steamed buns and meat, it is simply heaven.

The officers and soldiers enjoyed the rare last leisure time, but the officers led by Tang Dao couldn't be idle.

The Military Supplies Department needs to calculate various bonuses and pensions for more than 2000 members of the regiment according to Tang Dao's requirements. Although there are data before, in order to be more accurate and prevent the officers and soldiers from having opinions, there are also collective rewards for each company, platoon, and squad before being reorganized , these data must not be wrong.

The six people in the Quartermaster Department under the General Staff, from the captain to the sergeant, were all very busy. For this reason, Zhuang Shisan specially dispatched some officers from the whole regiment with some arithmetic skills to help. Transfer to go.

Throughout the night, the two small rooms in the Quartermaster Division were brightly lit, and personnel kept coming and going to check statistics with each other.

Except for the busy military supply department, the other ministries are also not idle. Tomorrow they will go to collect equipment, and the first to bear the brunt is the supply company.

Now the supply company is the well-deserved first company of the Four Elements Regiment.

唐刀从徐州购买300匹驮马、100架大车和聘请的100个马夫,除了100匹驮马和20架大车调拨给了两个炮兵连,其余可都给了辎重连。

In addition to these, Tang Dao also brought 500 recruits.

500 Refugees who were still lingering at the foot of the Xuzhou city wall a few days ago, that is, these two days have filled their stomachs and regained some strength, otherwise they would not be able to complete the 90-kilometer long road from Xuzhou city to the station.

Even so, as soon as they arrived at the station, 500 recruits lay down 480, and their extremely weak bodies, which were malnourished due to hunger for a long time, could persist in walking 90 kilometers in a day and a half, which was considered pretty good.

But this meant that the recruits recruited could not be used quickly at all, and the supply company also had experienced veterans to lead them, so as to ensure that they could keep up with the large forces and not fall behind.

Zhu Heicheng, the commander of the supply company, was impatient at that time, and went directly to the regiment headquarters to complain to Tang Dao.

"The 500 recruits belong to your supply company. They are specially prepared for this transportation of equipment. If they are not physically fit, then give them more nutrition. In addition to the prescribed food, each person will be given half a tael of sugar and two taels of bacon every day. Guaranteed that after half a month, they will all be strong and good guys." After hearing the complaints of the supply company commander, Tang Dao didn't make too much criticism, and immediately gave him support.

"In addition, divide them into three recruit companies. Each recruit company's company commander, platoon leader, and squad leader will be served by the guard company's platoon leader, squad leader, and veterans. They will be responsible for reorganizing the queue and marching. If you need anything For transport, you can inform the recruit company to help, and after they gradually adapt to life in the army, they will all be handed over to your supply company, is this okay?"

Tang Dao's meaning is already very clear. They are soldiers of your supply company, but you don't need to deploy manpower from your supply company to manage them. They can still help your supply company if they have work. .

This means that the supply company will soon receive the equipment transportation task. The equipment of a reorganized regiment, even if Tang Dao purchased pack horses and carts to increase the transport capacity by dozens of tons, is beyond the current limit of the supply company. Tang Dao knows their situation difficulty.

In normal times, with Tang Dao's temper, this lieutenant who had just been promoted to act as the commander of the supply chain company would have had a good meal.

What is the military group?If you have the conditions, you have to go, and if you don’t have the conditions, you have to go up if you don’t have the conditions. Then why are you crying and asking for support from your superiors before you do anything?
Zhu Heicheng was supported by Tang Dao, and finally returned to the station steadily.

But he didn't know that the following time would be one of the brightest moments in his life.

The Northeast Army is in the secret munitions warehouse outside Xuzhou City, but it has the equipment of eight reorganized divisions. Just using train skins requires several military columns.

However, the four-element regiment's heavy company has to rely on hundreds of pack horses and more than 100 carts to transport away the equipment of an entire regiment, and this does not include changing the entire four-element regiment.

Those old weapons that were replaced, Captain Tang wouldn't just throw them away, he still wanted to get them over there as a favor!

Even though the rifling lines of the old Hanyang made by the Sichuan Army were all polished, but there were many non-main forces in the army that had entered the mountains and fought guerrillas with the Japanese. There were still four people with a gun, and a gun with more than a dozen bullets. Just start with the Japanese!

Not to mention that pack horses and carts have developed their capacity to the limit, even he, the company commander of the supply chain, has long been carrying two rifles and the box gun that is standard for company commanders, as well as the quilts used for marching. Soldiers carry more than 30 catties.

The subordinates were busy, and of course Tang Dao, Lei Xiong and the others couldn't be idle.

Tang Dao convened a military meeting of the chief officers of the regiment headquarters, the three major infantry battalion commanders, and the chief officers of several directly subordinate companies to formulate the marching route of the whole regiment.

Although the war has not yet started, the march must not be ignored, especially the Four Elements Regiment not only brought students but also a large amount of ordnance and equipment. , but it won't do them any favors.

Cheng Tieshou's Pao 2 Company didn't have all the equipment in place yet, but the heavy machine guns of the Four Lines Regiment were still not lacking, especially the equipment that was about to be replenished from the secret munitions warehouse. Tang Dao decided that the Pao 2 Company would serve as an air defense company temporarily. .

炮2连将装备2挺机关炮和12挺重机枪,若补充军火中有机关炮则也全部装备炮2连,其余诸如37毫米战防炮这种打装甲和固定工事用直瞄炮暂时封存由辎重连运输。

Tang Dao took the initiative to confess what Tang Dao caused in Xuzhou City, and Lei Xiong, who had been in the old army for a long time, immediately raised his vigilance.

He knows the mentality of those who belong to the direct line of generals. Regardless of the fact that the Four Elements Regiment is given the title of the battlefield they fought in, it represents the name of the elite in the army, but in the eyes of the principal's disciples, they are still motley troops one piece.

To deal with the motley crew who dare to challenge themselves, they are much more courageous than imagined.

Under Lei Xiong's proposal, the newly established cavalry company was given reconnaissance functions and would advance 6 kilometers ahead of the main force of the entire Four Elements Regiment. Tang Dao was more decisive than Lei Xiong. To them, they were even given the military order to take the lead in shooting at the enemy.

In case of interrogation by other troops at checkpoints, just show them the military order. If a pass to the battle zone is needed, the regiment headquarters will send someone to negotiate.

If you encounter a member of the 20th Legion, you must be vigilant. Except for the negotiating personnel, the rest of the personnel should stay at least [-] meters away.

Tang Dao never wastes the precious lives of soldiers, no matter who the opponent is.

Leaving the Xuzhou war zone and entering Yu Province, one cannot relax vigilance. The Japanese army has already launched an attack on Yu Province, and the battle situation is changing rapidly.

The four-row regiment is completely a combat-type marching column.

With the cavalry company as the arrow, the first and second infantry battalions are the vanguard, located at the forefront of the entire marching ranks, the first artillery company is protected by the third infantry battalion, and the secret service company and regiment headquarters are in the middle. Sufficient combat power, no missions for the time being, advance with the regiment headquarters, and the guard company will be the rear of the entire army. If there is a battle situation, the entire army will immediately go into battle.

"This long-distance march is the first time since our regiment formed an army, and the situation is complicated. There are troops who have turned against our regiment, and there are also Japanese invaders who invaded. The chief officers of each battalion, company and unit must remind the officers and soldiers under their command to maintain Be vigilant enough, keep your guns close to your body, and keep your bullets close to your people." Tang Dao glanced at the officers under his command, stood up and set the tone for the march.

"If there is a major casualty incident due to slack, everyone here is the first person responsible. The military law of the Military Law Department is not a decoration. Everyone, do you understand?"

"Understood! Please rest assured, sir!" All the officers stood up in unison.

"The meeting is over!" Tang Dao looked at his watch. It was already night, and he waved his hand to end the two-hour military meeting.

The officers hurried away one after another.

If there is no accident, they will leave tomorrow. They all have to go back to their respective battalions for a meeting to inform the regiment headquarters of the decision. If they have time to spend time here, don’t say that Tang Dao didn’t keep them for dinner. Even if they did, they couldn’t stay longer .

Erya ran in quickly and whispered in Tang Dao's ear.

Tang Dao's face turned bitter, and he quickly greeted Zhuang Shisan who was about to leave, "Old Zhuang, you don't need to go to a meeting, let's have dinner together!"

Just as Zhuang Shisan was about to agree, he glanced outside the door suddenly, seeing a certain person who was tall and tidy coming in from the courtyard door, he hurriedly refused with a smile: "You can eat by yourself, group seat! My staff There are also dozens of troops in the four departments of the Ministry, and there are also a lot of old soldiers, I dare not ignore it, and besides, I have to see how the statistics of rewards and pensions are in the Military Supplies Department."

After finishing speaking, before Tang Dao could speak, he almost ran away.

Fuck!Don't talk about brotherly loyalty!Tang Dao looked at the speed of this guy's running, of course he knew why.

An old man is here!
Looking at the posture of walking like a dragon and walking like a tiger, it is definitely not as simple as coming to the future son-in-law to talk about life and ideals.

There is a possibility of boasting Tang Dao, but it belongs to Tang Dao. If he wants to scold him, then he, the chief of staff, will have to stay next to Tang Dao when he stays here.

Of course Tang Dao didn't know what this guy was doing here!But Erya, who had already had a certain level of observation, told him that Old Tantai seemed to be in a bad mood.

Tang Dao, who was a little guilty in his heart, wanted to keep someone here. No matter how unhappy the old man was, he would not open up in front of his subordinates.

Tantai Yunshu, who is very traditional in his bones, has a very good face, and Tang Dao can still grasp this point.

It's just that no matter how fast Ren Tangdao turned his head, he didn't know where he had offended the old man again. From the old man outside the courtyard snorting coldly and greeting the officers who were eager to leave one by one, it could be seen that the handsome middle-aged man was in a bad mood. How beautiful.
