Age of Rebirth

The so-called "talking is not speculative!" Song Geping, the mayor of Anton City, proposed to hold a tripartite military-local joint meeting. From the very beginning, there were differences. Jiang Xianliang, commander of the Sixth Brigade of the Marine Corps stationed in Anton, The major general, according to the order of the headquarters, adopted a posture of vigilance against the Japanese army in the direction of Fengtian, which meant that it was necessary to build fortifications facing the direction of Fengtian.

Although Jiang Xianliang is absolutely unwilling to build any fortifications, this is an order from the headquarters, and he has to implement it. Materials are needed to build the fortifications. With Anton on his back, building materials can no longer be transported from the Shandong Peninsula, so they can only be resolved locally. .

Jiang Xianliang's requirements are not high, and he doesn't want to build a permanent defense system. However, a fortification stretching across the northeastern part of Andong and extending east-west, with a length of tens of kilometers, requires a huge amount of reinforced concrete. taking into account the actual situation.

However, when this figure was submitted to the military-political joint meeting, it was strongly opposed by Song Geping, the mayor of Anton. He told Jiang Xianliang clearly that Anton could not produce so many building materials, at most, it could provide the Sixth Brigade One-fifth of what is needed.

In all fairness, Song Geping didn't mean to make things difficult for Jiang Xianliang. He had his own practical difficulties. Anton had just taken over, and the market was in a slump, and the economy was even worse. He couldn't gather these building materials, and Anton's economy would collapse. He couldn't spend all his money in Anton just to take care of the Sixth Brigade.

Jiang Xianliang looked at this little white face wearing glasses and felt uncomfortable. When the two of them met for the first time, fireworks and sparks flew all over the place. The building materials he proposed were not intended for Song Geping to fill his own pocket. problem.It's still for Anton's defense. Lao Tzu's Sixth Brigade will not be permanently stationed in Anton. Maybe at any time, an order will be deployed immediately. The defense system left behind will not benefit you from Anton City Hall. Why do you push back? of?

The more Jiang Xianliang looked at Song Geping, the more he disliked him, and he became angry. He said threateningly: "Mayor Song, this is a military order. During wartime, as a local government, everything should be based on military needs. The requirements of the army , must be satisfied unconditionally. Otherwise, you are violating military orders. Have you considered the consequences?"

Song Geping is also stubborn.Originally, I couldn't get used to this brigade commander Jiang, who was full of bandit and warlord habits, and coupled with the impression of meeting him for the first time, he was extremely bad. Hearing Jiang Xianliang's threatening words.He slapped the table and said loudly: "Brigade Commander Jiang, are you threatening me? My Anton City Hall is not under the jurisdiction of your Marine Corps. The higher-level agency is to receive the Northeast Work Corps, and the military and government have their own division of labor. , there is no clear stipulation that you must pay the orders of your army!"

"Consequences, what consequences? If you follow your unreasonable demands, Anton will fall into a state of chaos and the economy will be in a state of slump. You are fishing for nothing. Let me tell you clearly that the materials needed to build the defense system are only available to the Anton City Government. I can provide one-fifth, if you have any comments, please directly bring them up to Liu Hanzhang, head of the Northeast Work Corps, and stop threatening me!"

Jiang Xianliang was so angry that his face was livid, and he rubbed his hand on the matching gun again and again, wishing he could pull out the gun.He stared at the forehead of this little boy, but he didn't dare to be restrained by the discipline of the army, so he could only stand there gasping for breath and glaring at Song Geping.

And Song Geping was not to be outdone, and also glared at Jiang Xianliang angrily. On the ground in Anton, the two big men in the military and government were like top bulls, refusing to give in to each other, but Colonel He Qifeng, the commander of the Anton Security Command, was in a dilemma. to die.

From the perspective of a soldier, He Qifeng is very clear that Jiang Xianliang's request is not too much. It is a group of fortifications that are tens of kilometers long, and they are not permanent fortifications. Otherwise, the required building materials will be more than this. Several times more.

However, as Anton's security commander, he had to think about Mayor Song Geping. He knew that Mayor Song definitely didn't intend to make things difficult for Jiang Xianliang. Since he became the mayor of Anton, Song Geping has not had a good night's sleep, and he has devoted himself to his work. The efforts made by Anton's military and political circles are obvious to all, and they are very admired.

He Qifeng felt that Jiang Xianliang and Song Geping lacked mutual understanding and necessary communication. If the matter was opened up, there would not be so many misunderstandings. The trouble became unmanageable, and it was not good for anyone. I saw it, and Brigadier Jiang touched the pistol from time to time. After thinking about it, He Qifeng said, "Mayor Song, Brigadier Jiang, are you both calm?" After a while, there are practical difficulties, I think..."

Before He Qifeng could finish speaking, Jiang Xianliang interrupted and said angrily: "Commander He, don't try to smooth things over. We are both soldiers, and we understand the importance of fortifications much better than Mayor Song. In my opinion, talking about the defense system with him is like playing the piano against the cow!"

"There is no need for this meeting to continue. I'm still talking here. Even without the steel and concrete of your Mayor Song, the soldiers of my Sixth Brigade will still repair the fortifications and beat the little devil to death." People are turned on their backs, without the support of your Mayor Song, I will still guard Anton and leave!"

After finishing speaking, Jiang Xianliang angrily left the conference room, leaving Song Geping flushed with anger, and He Qifeng with a wry smile, "Commander He, look, this is the face of a bandit warlord. , Report to Commander Liu truthfully, the marines are too arrogant, don't let people talk, right!" Seeing Jiang Xianliang flicking his sleeves and leaving, Song Geping said loudly to He Qifeng angrily.

He Qifeng didn't agree with Song Geping's words, but said with deep meaning: "Mayor Song, you don't understand military affairs. The request made by Brigadier Jiang, to tell you the truth, can only meet the most basic requirements for the construction of the Anton Defense Line." Need, even, even the Japanese heavy artillery can't resist. If the little devils really come to attack, the Sixth Brigade will suffer. I am a soldier, and I understand the mood of Brigadier Jiang. My soldiers died because of the fortifications. On the battlefield, the commander will feel guilty for the rest of his life!"

"Ah!" Song Geping was stunned. He didn't expect that the construction materials such as steel and cement, which could not be raised even if Anton was scraped three feet away, would play such a small role. "It seems that this gangster Jiang Xianliang, It’s not like I’m trying to embarrass myself!” He thought to himself.

Immediately, he remembered Jiang Xianliang's attitude again, and became angry again, "Even if that's the case, he won't say it well. Commander He, you have seen what kind of attitude Jiang Xianliang has, threatening me!" Song Geping took off his glasses, wiped them vigorously, and continued talking to He Qifeng.

He Qifeng had nothing to say, and left politely. As he walked, he thought: "The misunderstanding between Jiang Xianliang and Song Geping is getting deeper and deeper. Perhaps, only the superiors of both parties can work together to adjust it. I, the commander of the Anton garrison, don't have such a big face! It's not easy to be caught in the middle!" He shook his head and drove back to the garrison headquarters.

Neither Jiang Xianliang nor He Qifeng expected and saw that Song Geping, who had calmed down, thought carefully about He Qifeng's words. After a long silence, he walked into the office and made more than a dozen long-distance calls, just for one thing. To solve the problem, we asked for help from the leaders of all regional governments in the Liaodong Peninsula, mobilized all the building materials needed for the construction of fortifications such as steel and cement, and transported them to Andong.

Angry Jiang Xianliang returned to the Sixth Brigade Headquarters in Andong City. As soon as he entered the door, Colonel Huo Shoushan, the chief of staff of the brigade, saw the brigade commander's angry appearance and asked in puzzlement: "Brigade commander, the military-administrative joint meeting is over. Why, Mayor Song didn't let you eat lunch?"

"Eat lunch? I'm so full of anger. That Song Geping is simply unreasonable. He doesn't understand bullshit. Chief of Staff, tell me, is it too much for the materials we propose to build the fortification?" Jiang Xianliang growled.

Huo Shoushan could hear the smell, the brigade commander had quarreled with the mayor of Song, but he replied in a matter-of-fact manner: "Not much, it can only meet the basic needs, even the shelter and the anti-blasting hole to prevent the little devil's heavy artillery , cannot be built!"

Jiang Xianliang took a deep breath and said, "We're not going too far, but that's it, that Mayor Song still refused, with an official mouth, what did we say, we are lions, we didn't consider the life and death of the people in Anton, and asked Digging Anton three feet into the ground, what a waste of fish! Anyway, he said a lot of nonsense, and he slammed the table with me!"

"If it wasn't for the command of the headquarters, I thought I would stay in this damn place in Anton, and have nothing to do all day, listening to the sound of guns and guns on the opposite side? I was so anxious, if I didn't hold back, I would have to hold a gun against it. His forehead can't speak, it really pissed me off!"

"That person named Song is not on the right track with me. When he first came to Anton, he pointed fingers and wanted to detain me. Anton can't stay in this place anymore. He is angry all day long. Chief of Staff, hurry up and send a telegram to the commander asking for a fight." , The Sixth Brigade requests to participate in the operations on the northern battlefield of the Korean Peninsula, whoever likes to deal with people surnamed Song, come to Andong!"

Huo Shoushan didn't pay much attention to Jiang Xianliang's other words, but he wanted to hold a gun to Mayor Anton's forehead. You failed to put a gun on Mayor Song?"

After venting, Jiang Xianliang lost his temper a lot. Hearing Huo Shoushan's question, he gave him an angry look and said, "I'm stupid, that's a violation of discipline, really pull out a gun. , It’s okay to ignore it, the commander knows it, and he still hasn’t skinned me!”
