Riverside Police.

It was late at night, and because there was no electricity, they could not watch TV or listen to the radio. Most of the people who were temporarily placed on the embankment fell asleep.

Some people could not sleep, gathered together in twos and threes, looked at the direction of the flooded homes, sighed, and talked in a low voice about what to do in the future.

At this time, a burst of hurried and neat steps came from a distance.

When everyone looked back, they suddenly found a troop marching in a hurry, and their flashlights dazzled people.

"The third row speeds up, the second row keeps up, and the first row stands still!"

"Yes!"

"Surround immediately, don't let them escape."

……

Naturally, Xu Mingyuan, Ma Jintao and others couldn't hide such a big movement.

As soon as Xu Mingyuan and Ma Jintao stepped out of the tent, they found that the entire camp was surrounded. An army captain and an army lieutenant in camouflage uniforms came to meet them with a dozen soldiers.

"Comrade, which unit are you in? What are you doing?" Xu Mingyuan asked with a smile.

The captain of the army was on the fire, raised his flashlight to shine on Xu Mingyuan and others, and ordered coldly: "Wen Youming, Chen Hua, Zhang Guobing!"

"To!"

"Recognize people!"

"Yes!"

The three soldiers ran up immediately, holding up their flashlights to take pictures one after another, knowing without asking that they were here to catch Xiao Yu and Xiao Gu.

Xu Mingyuan didn't expect them to be so angry, he hurriedly signaled Guo Weitao and others to keep calm, and asked again: "Comrade Captain, what are you doing?"

"Find someone."

"Who are you looking for?"

"Look for the person who stole our company's honorary title banner."

"It's okay to find someone, but is there anyone you can find like this?"

Xu Mingyuan straightened his face, stared at him closely and said, "My surname is Xu, and my name is Xu Mingyuan. I am the deputy instructor of the Major of the Linghai Reserve Battalion of the Jiangnan Provincial Military Region. Now I order you to let your subordinates leave our camp immediately, otherwise don't blame us for not polite!"

The officers and soldiers of the reserve forces are mostly demobilized veterans.

The captain of the army realized that it should not be too much, raised his arms and saluted: "Old squad leader, I am Guan Zhenghao, commander of the 301st company of the 902nd Battalion of the 274th Regiment of the 2nd Division of the 1st Army. The soldiers of my company saw with their own eyes that people from your battalion stole us. The military flag! If you hand over the military flag and people, we will withdraw."

"Comrade Guan Zhenghao, this may be a misunderstanding."

"Misunderstanding, hehe, old squad leader, I don't want to make things big, you just need to hand over the people and let them apologize to us, and let's forget about it."

"if not?"

"Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude."

Chen Youren couldn't listen anymore, pointed at him and scolded: "You recruit, do you have any eyes on your subordinates? If you have something to say, you can talk about it. Our teacher Xu is so polite to you, and you are so shameless!"

"Old squad leader, is it reasonable for your people to steal our military flag? It is said that one of the two people who stole our military flag is a deputy company commander. It's really not right up and down!"

"How did you speak?"

"That's what I said, and I'll say the same when my superiors come." Guan Zhenghao became more and more annoyed as he thought about it, and he turned around and shouted: "A platoon leader!"

"Here!" A second lieutenant ran over.

"Bring two classes in to search, anyone who dares not cooperate, let me take it down!"

"Yes!"

"you dare!"

"I'm daring, I want to do something, let the horse come here, I just happened to experience the skills of the old squad leaders."

Xiaoyu gritted his teeth angrily, and was about to rush forward, but was pulled back by Guo Weitao.

就在274团2营1连的一排长带着二十几个战士正准备进帐篷搜军旗的时候，身后突然传来汽车引擎声，汽车大灯照的关正浩等274团2营1连官兵睁不开眼。

"What do you want to fight?"

Staff Officer Dai opened the door and got out of the car, and walked over with two soldiers wearing picket belts, three crutches and one star picket epaulets on their shoulders, three-service picket armbands on their arms, and blue folders between their arms.

There are two types of pickets. One is the internal picket of the unit, which is usually served by soldiers drawn from the guard company or guard platoon. It is equivalent to going on a business trip. It is not full-time, and it is only for the officers and soldiers of the unit, and will not go outside the camp. Perform picket duties.

There is also the picketing of the three armed forces in the garrison area, provincial military area, and military division.

As long as they are pickets, they are annoying, but compared to the pickets in our unit, the pickets of the three armies are even more annoying!
They are always nitpicking, no matter which unit you are in, and no matter how high your rank is, as long as you are targeted by them, it will not do you any good.

They "see officials at the top level", and their main work is "three maintenance, one execution, and one assistance".

Maintain military discipline, maintain the order of military vehicles and traffic safety, safeguard the reputation of the army and the rights and interests of soldiers, perform temporary security duties, and assist local governments in maintaining social order when necessary.

It has the right to criticize, educate and even control personal freedom of active-duty soldiers who violate military discipline and disobey advice. As for reporting to superiors or notifying relevant units for handling, that is normal operation.

Just three months ago, a female military doctor of the division's health team forgot to wear a hat when she went out, and was carrying a newly bought women's small Kun bag. She was unlucky and was spotted by several military pickets. The female military doctor was so scared that she hid in the Ladies toilet.

As a result, the three military pickets blocked the women's restroom for two hours. The female military doctor had no choice but to come out and admit her mistake, and was registered by those pickets to report to the division.

Fortunately, you are a lesbian, if you change to a man, they will take you away and notify your leaders to pick you up.

In short, as long as you see pickets, don't think about anything else, just run!

As long as he doesn't catch up, you're fine.

If he catches up with him, things will change from nothing to nothing.

……

The pickets of the armed forces are only found in big cities, and generally only "haunt" places such as railway stations, bus stations, and large shopping malls. How can there be pickets here!

Guan Zhenghao was dumbfounded when he saw Staff Officer Dai and two pickets from the Binjiang Military Division.

The platoon leader, squad leader and soldiers under Guan Zhenghao were all frightened out of their wits, wanting to run but not daring to run.

Xiaoyu suddenly reacted and couldn't help laughing.

Staff Officer Dai subconsciously looked at Xu Mingyuan, stepped forward and said coldly: "Comrade, please show your ID, we need to register your name, unit and ID number."

Guan Zhenghao said with a bitter face: "Comrade picket, listen to my explanation..."

"I'll listen to your explanation and show your ID first."

"Yes."

If you don't cooperate, you will end badly, not to mention that you are just a company commander, even the regimental commander and division commander must cooperate.Guan Zhenghao didn't dare to explain any more, and hurriedly took out his military ID card.

Staff Officer Dai took a look at his military ID card, handed it to the picket around him for registration, and asked, "Comrade Guan Zhenghao, where is your temporary residence?"

"Ahead, about two and a half kilometers from here."

"If you don't rest at the temporary station at night, what are you doing here?"

"Someone from the Linghai Reserve Battalion stole our military flag, not an ordinary military flag, they stole our honorary title flag."

"Are you here to arrest people, to find the military flag?"

"Yes!"

"You brought troops to arrest people and look for the military flag. Does your superior know?"

"I... I didn't have time to report."

"Comrade Guan Zhenghao, how should we deal with this kind of thing according to the regulations?"

"How to deal with what?"

"What if the military flag is lost?"

Guan Zhenghao was silent for a moment, and said anxiously: "I was wrong, I should report to the superior first, and the superior security department will handle it."

Staff Officer Dai stared at him and asked, "Now that I know I was wrong, what should I have done?"

"I will review."

"Is the instructor here?"

"Report, I am the instructor."

"Documents."

"Yes!"

It's over.

This time it's all over!
What is obviously reasonable is unreasonable when encountering pickets.

The instructor Chen Zhenhai kept complaining, so he had to honestly take out his military ID card.

Staff Dai was doing business and asked the two pickets to register first, and then went to question Xu Mingyuan and Ma Jintao.

Xu Mingyuan and Ma Jintao were very cooperative and quickly showed their credentials.

The officers and soldiers of the 274nd Battalion and 2st Company of the 1th Regiment noticed that Staff Officer Dai and others were not fake pickets, they were real pickets, and their jeeps had the words "Pickets of the Three Armies". Instructors worry.

After questioning Xu Mingyuan and Ma Jintao, Staff Officer Dai turned around and asked, "Comrade Guan Zhenghao, is your deputy company commander here?"

"coming."

"Exit."

"Yes!" A lieutenant ran forward and stood at attention to salute.

"Name."

"Report to the picket comrades, my name is Wang Xiaohong."

"The company commander and instructor stay behind, and you will lead the team back to the temporary station."

"Comrade picket, let me stay, our company commander..."

Staff Officer Dai's face straightened, and the deputy company commander didn't dare to say anything.

Guan Zhenghao hurriedly gestured quietly, and the deputy company commander realized that he could not fight against the picket, and hurriedly said: "Everyone is there, come back with me!"

"Comrade Xu Mingyuan, let all the officers and soldiers of your battalion go back to their tents to rest."

"Yes!"

To deal with this group of recruits, pickets are easy to use.

Xu Mingyuan suddenly found out that Ge Ju was too powerful, so he thought of forming a picket team.

At the same time, I feel that the deputy platoon leader of the guard platoon of the Binjiang Military Division and the three soldiers are good. Although they can only assist in logistics at ordinary times, as long as they wear the picket belt and picket epaulets, they are the three armed forces that are feared by everyone on active duty. picket!

While the veterans of the Linghai Reserve were secretly having fun, Staff Officer Dai pointed to the tent in front of him: "Okay, follow me in, now we can talk about things."

"Yes!"

There are two people in the Linghai Reserve Battalion, Xu Mingyuan and Ma Jintao.

The 274nd Battalion and 2st Company of the 1th Regiment were also two people. Guan Zhenghao and Chen Zhenhai sat down opposite Xu Mingyuan and Ma Jintao anxiously under the motion of Staff Officer Dai.

Staff Officer Dai sat in the middle, and two pickets from the Binjiang Military Division stood next to Staff Officer Dai, and the other sat directly opposite Staff Officer Dai, and opened the folder to make records.

"Comrade Xu Mingyuan, Comrade Wu Zhenghao said that the officers and soldiers of your battalion stole their red sharp knife company's honorary title flag. Please tell me the truth, is there such a thing?"

"Yes, but not stealing."

"Not stealing what?"

"Misunderstand."

"What misunderstanding?"

Xu Mingyuan glanced sideways, and Ma Jintao immediately stood up and went out to get two red military flags with sharp knives.

Xu Mingyuan pointed to the military flag and explained the ins and outs with a wry smile.

Unexpectedly, it was really a misunderstanding. Guan Zhenghao was dumbfounded, and couldn't believe that the reserve force in front of him was actually a red sharp knife company.

Staff Officer Dai suppressed a smile and asked, "Since they are all red sharp knives, what should we do next?"

"impossible!"

"Comrade Guan Zhenghao, what is impossible?"

"They can't be the Red Sharp Knife Company. There is only one Red Sharp Knife Company, and that is our company!"

"You can't be, only we are!"

"What are you doing, do you want to quarrel, can such arguing produce a result?"

"Comrade picket, I'm sorry."

"Comrade Xu Mingyuan come first, you said you are the Red Sharp Knife Company, what can you prove?"

Xu Mingyuan immediately talked about the predecessor of the third company of the Linghai Reserve Battalion, since the period of the Anti-Japanese War, he talked about it like a treasure.

Guan Zhenghao and Chen Zhenhai were stunned when they heard this, until they could speak, they said with a bitter face: "Comrade Picket, the predecessor of our company was established in Dongshan Laixi in 1939, and participated in the Jinan Campaign, Huaihai Campaign, etc. 110 campaign battles!"

Staff Officer Dai took the records handed over by the picket soldiers, looked at them carefully for a while, then raised his head and said, "So the problem lies in the adaptation in 1985, all of which came from the same root, and it was only because of the diversion of the army's adaptation. , you are equivalent to cousins, as for the blush in the face?"

"Why not, Comrade Picket, there can only be one Red Sharp Knife Company!"

"Comrade Guan Zhenghao, I'm not partial to the Linghai Reserve Battalion. I think your point of view is problematic."

"What's the problem."

"My predecessor is the same as yours. Why can't I inherit the honorary title of the Red Sharp Knife Company? Judging from the information provided by both of you just now, you are not the only ones who are qualified to inherit this honorary title. Follow the principle of honor and follow others , the troops transferred from Huaye 13th Vertical during the previous adaptation, including the 96 Mobile Division that was changed to the Armed Police in 903, are eligible to inherit!"

"It's different."

"What's the difference?"

"We have proof, we have evidence."

Staff Officer Dai asked, "What evidence?"

Guan Zhenghao said eagerly: "We have the 'Red Sharp Knife Company' honor room, and we have the 'Three Treasures' that can prove that we are the Red Sharp Knife Company!"

Staff Officer Dai asked curiously, "Which three treasures?"

"A bayonet bent by the predecessors in the Xiangshan blockade, a pair of liberation shoes worn out by officers and soldiers in the 1964 military competition, and a "Red Sharp Knife Company" honorary flag awarded by the Ministry of National Defense. These three pieces Items can not only witness the footprints of our company's struggle, but also prove that we are the Red Sharp Knife Company!"

"Comrade Xu Mingyuan, do you have any items that can prove that you are the Red Sharp Knife Company?"

Tell me about the evidence, do you two know what I do?Do you two know where our camp is?
Xu Mingyuan was overjoyed, and said very seriously: "Comrade picket, if there are any relics that can prove that we are the predecessors and martyrs of the Red Sharp Knife Company, our company has many relics."

"a lot of!"

"I'm not going to lie to you. The evidence provided by the head of the company can only be traced back to the Xiangshan blockade in the late period of the Liberation War. Our red relics can be traced back to the Anti-Japanese War. We have the bloody clothes worn by the martyrs when they died. There are seniors from Japan. The [-]-type rifle and crooked machine gun seized by the devil!"

Xu Mingyuan thought about the exhibits in the exhibition hall of the Sanhe Martyrs Cemetery, and then said: "There are telephones used by the seniors to command operations, there are radio stations assigned to our company by the superiors, and there are kettles used in the battle of crossing the river. The kettles are from the Kuomintang army. seized..."

When Ma Jintao realized it, he cast his eyes on the ground in admiration, thinking that even the exhibits in the honor room can be compared with the exhibits in a martyr's cemetery?

Guan Zhenghao and Chen Zhenhai couldn't believe their ears.

Staff Officer Dai was also stunned, and couldn't believe that the "garrison in Hong Kong" had so many "tokens".

"Where is the honorary flag of the 'Red Sharp Knife Company' awarded by the Ministry of National Defense, old squad leader, the honorary flag of the 'Red Sharp Knife Company' awarded by the Ministry of Defense can best prove who is the Red Sharp Knife Company, do you have any?"

"Have!"

"Really?"

"Really, if you don't believe me, you can visit our honor room."

Isn't it the flag of honor?

Not to mention that there is really a side in the honor room of the Binjiang Reserve Regiment, even if there is no one, you can make a side, and do it well.

The Ministry of Defense at that time was not the same as the Ministry of Defense of today.

What kind of fabric was used for the flag of honor and what size it was made at that time, who can tell now, am I still afraid that you will use it for judicial appraisal?
Xu Mingyuan put on a posture that I have everything, more and more complete than you. Guan Zhenghao was indeed intimidated by the former criminal police captain, hesitated and said, "I want to report to the superior."

Staff Officer Dai didn't want to entangle any more, let alone affect tomorrow's emergency rescue, so he signaled his subordinates to put away the two red banners of sharp knives, stood up and said, "I can't mediate the conflict between your two families, and I have to report to my superiors as well.

In order to avoid conflicts between the two of you over honorary titles, I will keep these two red flags on my behalf until the superior confirms who is the real Red Sharp Knife Company or completes the immediate flood fighting and rescue mission. "

"Comrade picket, we must take the military flag away!"

"Comrade Guan Zhenghao, are you worried that I will embezzle your military flag?"

"I'm not worried about your corruption, we're going to go, we're going to Jiujiang!"

"Are you going?"

"Our troops are stationed in Jianfu, and we belong to the Nanjing Military Region. We got on the train after receiving the order. Not only were we on the train, but also a troop from the Guangzhou Military Region. According to the original plan, we had to transfer trains midway, but it turned out that Nanhu There was a breach here, and the superior ordered us to rescue the emergency with the troops from the Guangzhou Military Region."

Seeing that Staff Officer Dai was thoughtful, Guan Zhenghao thought about it and said: "Our mission here has been completed, and the superior ordered us to go to Jiujiang tomorrow morning."

"You belong to the Nanjing Military Region. Comrade Xu Mingyuan, you also belong to the Nanjing Military Region. Why do you two come to our Guangzhou Military Region to fight?"

"We didn't fight, we didn't fight."

"It's a good thing you didn't do anything, otherwise none of you would be able to go back!"

Staff Officer Dai snorted coldly, and said without a doubt: "Considering that there was a reason for the incident, I didn't see that you almost fought tonight. But I have to take these two military flags with me. Will there be trouble again in a while!"

Guan Zhenghao said with a bitter face: "But..."

"It's nothing but, I will hand over the military flag to my superiors, and our superiors will hand over the military flags to the common superiors of both of you. It is difficult for an upright official to break up housework. These housework between your two families, let your common superiors deal with."

After Staff Officer Dai finished speaking, he called two of his subordinates, took two military flags and left.

Who would dare not listen to the picket, not to mention the picket has already given face tonight.If it were a serious picket, at least two people would be taken away by them tonight and put in confinement.

Guan Zhenghao had no choice but to watch the three pickets take the military flag away.
