The beacon of youth

The independent brigade that occupied Qamdo City first was busy and busy. They had to make preparations for the follow-up troops. As soon as the day dawned, the troops on guard outside the city sent back a message that the brigade of the [-]th Army The men have arrived.

It was the reconnaissance company of the [-]th Army that fought with the Independent Brigade that sent back the news.

A company of scouts and the reconnaissance battalion of the independent brigade were cruising around outside the city of Qamdo. In order to allow them to transmit news more quickly, the independent brigade specially equipped them with two wireless walkie-talkies.

Two walkie-talkies were given to the brother troops for free, which was a very big deal at the time, because a walkie-talkie was more expensive than a heavy machine gun, and it was also the most scarce thing in the army.

Following the independent tour is a regiment-owned reconnaissance company (the 52th regiment of the [-]nd Division of the [-]th Army), which is the lowest rank among the reconnaissance troops (the regiment, division, and army are all equipped with reconnaissance troops). It’s not high. It’s too difficult to rely on superiors to distribute walkie-talkies. The company commander and his soldiers regard these two walkie-talkies as treasures. The grinning company commander still talks to everyone. Follow the independent brigade to be promising, and the gifts given out are all generous.

After receiving the news, Li Yong and Wang Chengde immediately took the guard company to greet them outside the city. The Eighteenth Army is the superior unit of the Independent Brigade, and the army commander and political commissar are also their immediate superiors. They have always communicated with each other by telegram. The new boss who has never met before is here. Of course, the two chief officers of the Independent Brigade have to go out of the city to greet him to show his importance.

Li Yong, who came outside the city, looked in the direction of the soldiers' fingers, and saw a team wearing the same khaki military uniform as they were approaching as far as he could see. It gets bigger and bigger, so big that you can't see the end from the beginning.

The troops marched mainly on foot, accompanied by a small number of cars on the side of the large infantry.Behind the car are towed guns of various calibers.

It was the moment when the sun just came out in the morning, and there was not a trace of cloud in the clear sky, but a faint white mist shrouded the head of the marching team.

Li Yong, Wang Chengde and others all know that this layer of faint white mist is formed by the moisture on the soldiers. It is a phenomenon that the sweat of the large troops quickly evaporates during the rapid march. This shows that the troops have marched for a long time. Over time, the physical strength of the soldiers has also been greatly consumed.

Political commissar Wang Chengde is an old soldier who has served in the army for many years. When he saw the soldiers and horses of the [-]th Army brigade marching in the distance, he muttered in a low voice: "Dayong, it seems that the main force of the [-]th Army marched over overnight. You can see from the soldiers' steps Come out. The troops have traveled dozens of kilometers at least.”

Li Yong sighed: "That's right, in order to catch up with the fleeing troops of the Tibetan army, it is really not easy for our soldiers. They don't have so many cars to ride in, and they are not familiar with the plateau climate. It is all supported by a will, There is no way to rest for a few days. There is no way to recover physical strength."

Wang Chengde and Li Yong looked at each other.Needless to say, both of them understood that the preparation of the Independent Brigade for nearly two days was exhausted, and the [-]th Army, which came from afar, was in urgent need of rest.

In addition to Li Jia, the company commander of the guard company, and He Cuihua, the trainer of the supply battalion, among the crowd who stood beside Li Yong and Wang Chengde.

It had nothing to do with He Cuihua, the trainer of the supply battalion, to go out of the city to meet the superior, but this girl didn't know what was wrong, so she had to follow her wholeheartedly.He also said that he wanted to see what the new chief executive looked like, so Li Yong had no choice but to let him go and follow him.

Li Yong turned his head and glanced at He Cuihua: "How is your preparation for the supply camp?"

He Cuihua's wholehearted thought of going out of the city to meet the chief is actually a lie, regardless of her young age.But she has met quite a few chiefs, probably even more than Li Yong, the brigade commander. Her real idea is that she does not want to create too many opportunities for Li Yong and Li Jia. In He Cuihua's view, Li Jia, the guard Being a company commander is really rewarding. I spend all day walking around with the brigade commander. We work together, we eat together, and we even sleep together. The dirty and tiring work is done by San Niu and Xiao Cheng. Fuck, thinking about it makes people angry. If you know that the company commander of the guard company is walking with the brigade commander all day long, he would have to fight Li Jia for everything he said.

He Cuihua was thinking wildly in her head, but she couldn't respond to Li Yong's question:

"How about the preparations? Now that there are no combat missions, why do you need to prepare?"

Li Yong rubbed He Cuihua's head with his hand: "Focus on it, I'm asking how your supply camp is preparing for the Eighteenth Army?"

Regarding this matter, He Cuihua curled her lips and said: "It's all done according to the intention of the two leaders. I, Lao Sun and Lao Yang are busy like monkeys, looking for houses and food, and we are short of finding wives for them." , the morning meal is ready, and the task of the logistics comrades is to prepare for their lunch."

Not to mention, although He Cuihua has a bad temper, he is really good at his work. Whether it is fighting or doing logistics, he is very good. Then he said a few more words, the voice is not small:

"What's the use of being busy! We are in logistics, even if the leader is exhausted, he can't see it. It's not like some people who don't do anything all day long, just go for a walk with the chief, and say it's work, shit, Accompanying the leader Hu Liuda can also be considered a job?"

Li Yong and Wang Chengde were both taken aback, which girl He Cuihua sang, but their heads were very flexible, and they knew what it meant after a little thought.

He Cuihua is a little jealous. Li Yong and Li Jia have been together for too long. He Cuihua is not stupid. Like Hu Xiaolian, I can't bear to vent, so if I find an opportunity today, I have to vent.

Wang Chengde, the political commissar, knew what was on He Cuihua's mind. However, this was a so-called housework, and he didn't need to take care of it as a political commissar. He should spend more time thinking about how to supply the Eighteenth Army.

He Cuihua's reasoning made Li Yong groan and he didn't dare to say anything. Brigadier Li, who had a shortcoming in He Cuihua, didn't dare to break up with He Cuihua at this time, and Li Jia, who was the party involved, didn't say anything, just She frowned to express dissatisfaction, because Li Jia knew He Cuihua's temper, if she opened her mouth to make an excuse, He Cuihua might not know what to say, so it's better not to speak.

It was as if He Cuihua had hit the air with a fist, limp and unable to exert force. Several people all looked in the direction of the [-]th Army's large troops, as if no one heard what she said.

She said a few angry words just to vent her dissatisfaction. He Cuihua still knows what is big and what is small, and she is still focusing on work at present.

A familiar open-top jeep drove over, with several soldiers sitting in the car, and a man in his twenties who looked like a cadre, accompanied by the reconnaissance battalion commander Zhang Jinsong, came in front of Li Yong and Wang Chengde.

Zhang Jinsong introduced this cadre-like person: "This is our brigade commander and political commissar."

There was a hint of surprise in the eyes of the person who looked like a cadre. Is this the head of the brother army from the Northwest?Is the brigade commander and political commissar?too young!

The people brought here by Zhang Jinsong were members of the 27th Army, so no wonder he was surprised. Even the older Wang Chengde was only 27 years old. [-]-year-old brigade political commissars are really rare. The brigade commander is even more unbelievable. Can one be a brigade commander at such an age?What happened to Yiye's cadres.

No matter how young they are, they must be from a field army. The cadre-looking man straightened his chest and stood at attention in front of Li Yong and Wang Chengde to salute:

"Reporting to Comrade Chief: The commander of the guard company of the [-]th Army Headquarters has been ordered to come, please give instructions."

The person who came was the guard company commander of the [-]th Army's military headquarters. He came early to do the guard work more carefully, because the chief will be here soon.

Without too many pleasantries, Li Yong asked Zhang Jinsong to take the guard company commander to quickly familiarize himself with the situation, and put the troops brought over together with the reconnaissance battalion of the Independent Brigade on the periphery for security. The Qamdo area is not peaceful yet, and the necessary security work is still necessary.

After another 20 minutes or half an hour, the large troops of the 52th Army finally arrived, and the vanguard was the [-]th Regiment of the [-]nd Division of the [-]th Army.

The 3000th Regiment is the main regiment of the [-]th Army. There are more than [-] people in the regiment. They are fully loaded, have sufficient ammunition, and are very energetic. After a long march, the soldiers seem a little tired. Most of the top two buttons of their jackets They are all open, and there is still a trace of white gas coming from the head.

The reconnaissance company that had been fighting with the Independent Travel Army also stood on both sides of the road to meet the large troops. The company commander and Li Yong Wang Chengde stood together for the convenience of introducing the two chief officers of the Independent Brigade.

The company commander shouted in surprise: "Hey, brigade commander and political commissar, our regiment was the first to drive over. Our regiment commander and political commissar have arrived."

Li Yong understood the company commander's mood very well. It was the same as when he joined the main force of the regiment (the second regiment of the fourth brigade) for the first time when he was the company commander. His excitement cannot be expressed.

"Since your regiment has arrived, your company will be responsible for the reception, pick the best house and the best garrison location, and your company will also be responsible for the food. If you need anything, you can go directly to Lao Sun for it."

The troops of the Eighteenth Army are too large, and it is a headache just to solve the problem of the garrison. The independent brigade has been busy for two days before it can be regarded as finding the house, but it can only be called the house. There is really no way to guarantee the quality. The garrison is good Whether it's good or bad depends on luck. Li Yong sent the reconnaissance company to receive the [-]th Regiment to save face for the reconnaissance company that had been fighting with the Independent Brigade. They also had a part in finding a house. Of course they knew what was good and what was bad. (To be continued..)
