Rise From Eight Hundred

If they were not his own people, Tang Dao's behavior of "exchanging" for supplies would have long been banished to the cold palace.

How could he still ask for people in front of two army lieutenant generals?

When Tang Dao saw the garrison two kilometers away from the front line, the garrison was already crowded with people.

Early in the morning, the head of the logistics department of the 67th Army Headquarters brought people to receive the supplies. He had received Tang Dao's military order. Even if Zhuang Shisan's face was almost green with heartache, he could only watch the food that everyone had worked so hard to carry back put into the big cart of the baggage battalion.

The reason was very simple. The baggage battalion with the advance group was the baggage battalion directly under the 67th Army Headquarters. Many supplies did not need to be unloaded at all, and could be taken away directly.

The three guard battalions and the cavalry battalion had also packed up their luggage long ago. Last night, after Tang Dao returned, he asked Zhuang Shisan to come up with a distribution plan. Whatever the various departments wanted, as long as the advance group had it, they would try their best to meet it.

For example, Tang Dao had already prepared the horse rations needed by the cavalrymen, which made Wu Long scratch his head. No matter whether Wu Da Lao agreed or not, he would give them.

Tang Dao also met all the pistols and Japanese grenades that the soldiers and cavalrymen of the baggage camp liked to equip, which were all rewards for their hard work.

Of course, these would be deducted from the amount promised to be handed over to the headquarters.

Whether it was the baggage camp, the cavalry camp or the guard camp, they were all ready to go. The officers and soldiers of the Sihang Camp and the Songjiang Guard Camp also left their respective camps and reluctantly said goodbye to the soldiers who had already joined the ranks.

"Brother Xiaobai, stay alive and be sure to send Xiaomei home!" Lu Sanjiang patted Gu Xishui's shoulder, who came to say goodbye to him with an extremely haggard face, and urged him.

"Don't worry, you too, stay alive!" Gu Xishui cheered up and nodded vigorously.

Such scenes were happening in every corner of the garrison.

They had experienced life and death side by side, but all good things must come to an end, and they must learn to say goodbye.

The command has issued a military order, and except for the Sihang Camp and Songjiang Guard Camp, which will be merged to form the new 43rd Army Independent Camp, all other units of the advance regiment will return to their respective units this morning.

The 107th and 108th Divisions sent officers at the level of major general deputy division commander to welcome back their troops, and the 67th Army Headquarters sent a major general chief of staff, the director of the staff department of the Jiashan Frontline Command, who is nominally the immediate superior of Tang Dao, the first deputy director of the staff department.

First, it must be to express the importance of these elites who participated in the destruction of the Sixth Heavy Artillery Brigade; another more important reason, perhaps only those bigwigs can understand.

If a few heavyweights don't come, what will Tang Dao do if he hides them, these elites who have been tempered by war? These people are all seeds that are highly expected by the leaders of various departments.

Even though the losses of the troops in the Songjiang and Jiashan battles were huge, as long as these seeds are still there, when they are allowed to recruit soldiers after retreating to the rear, the veterans will lead the new soldiers, and the combat effectiveness will be restored in less than half a year.

In the eyes of the Japanese, the Tang Dao is notorious, but in the eyes of the generals on the front line in Jiashan, the Tang Dao’s reputation is not very good. This guy’s combat level is excellent, but the level of "waving a small hoe" is unmatched.

When the Songjiang Guard Battalion was established, all divisions, brigades and even regiments had a deep understanding of this. They were hurt by the Tang Dao.

This time, of course, they would never leave any chance for the Tang Dao. Thinking that the Tang Dao is now a big "local tyrant", the division commanders of each division could not personally go out, but they all sent their deputies in tacit understanding. Didn’t you see that Wu Junzuo also had this idea and quietly sent the major general chief of staff?

The three major generals gathered together, all smiling tacitly. With this situation, what tricks can Tang Dao, a newly promoted colonel, do? He must not!

Obviously, they underestimated Tang Dao too much.

Or, they underestimated Tang Dao's prestige in this temporary unit.

The command of the headquarters was issued, and all units packed up their luggage and lined up, but no unit set out first.

Because Tang Dao had not returned yet.

Whether it was the three major guard battalions, the cavalry battalion, or the baggage battalion, the only request given to the major generals who came to greet them was to let them wait a little longer and say goodbye to Tang Dao, the temporary supreme commander.

As a soldier, of course, they could understand the feelings of comrades who fought side by side and went through life and death together, and the three major generals naturally had no reason to refuse.

So, the three major generals saw a scene that they would never forget in their lives.

When Tang Dao strode into the garrison, Gu Shaoxun, who had been promoted to lieutenant colonel and deputy commander of the 67th Army's Special Service Regiment, shouted on his warhorse: "Commander Tang is here, all the troops of the advance regiment stand at attention and salute!"

The garrison, which was still a bit busy and noisy, suddenly became quiet, and was then drowned out by the same sound.

"Bang!"

"Shua!"

The three officers and soldiers of the guard battalion who had already carried their individual equipment stood at attention, stood at attention, and saluted!

The officers and soldiers of the baggage battalion who were checking whether the ropes were tied firmly beside the cart stood at attention and saluted!

From Gu Shaoxun and others, more than a hundred cavalrymen who had already mounted their horses "shua" and pulled out the sabers in the horseback knife bags in unison, raised the sabers to their chests with their right hands, and saluted with sabers. That was the most solemn etiquette of the cavalry!

Not to mention the three major generals who were stunned, even Tang Dao, who was walking into the base with big strides to see off the troops who were about to return to their base, was suddenly stunned. Then, he realized that this was a farewell ceremony from the troops who were about to return to their base to him.

Whether in Sihang, Songjiang, or the wilderness of Jiangnan, Tang Dao remained calm in the face of the Japanese army, whose troops and equipment were several times or even dozens of times his own.

But at this moment, facing the farewell ceremony given by his comrades who had experienced life and death side by side, Tang Dao's face was moved and his eyes were slightly red.

In fact, a similar experience also happened in the Battle of Sihang. A Suzhou River divided the Sihang army, which was originally one, into two groups. One side was imprisoned because of the humiliation of military orders, and the other side chose to stay in a desperate situation because of its unyielding spirit.

However, Tang Dao, who had just arrived in this world, hoped to use his own strength to do his best to help his country and nation in dire straits, but at that time he was more like a player who changed the map. Whether his thoughts or emotions were actually still in the future, he still looked at the entire war from a God's perspective.

Because he knew the direction of the historical ruts, he knew the fate of those people, and he was the protagonist who was given a plug-in by God to see through everything.

So, he fought, fighting with his ancestors who shared the same bloodline as himself, fearless of life and death.

At that time, he obviously had not yet fully integrated himself into this era.

But now that the battle has come, it is no longer the same.

Tang Dao forgot the future and the direction in which the wheel of history would continue to roll.

Here, they are all his comrades-in-arms, who want to kill the Japanese in this war and survive. He is their commander and one of them.

Now, a round of battlefields is over, and these comrades-in-arms who followed his orders and bravely moved forward fearlessly are leaving.

Everyone cherishes this last farewell, they stand up straight and raise their right hands very hard.

Of course, this is also a thank you, thank you Tang Dao for leading them to win the great victory the night before.

Soldiers, with this victory, die without regrets! Tang Dao led them to do it.

"Salute!" Tang Dao, with red eyes, spoke a little hoarsely, and also stood at attention and saluted!

At this moment, the special forces soldier Tang Dao from the future completely disappeared, leaving only the colonel Tang Dao of this turbulent era.

"This is one of the most moving military salutes I have ever seen! The soldiers stared at their superiors, and the superiors stared at their soldiers, saying goodbye, and then the queue started, each rushing to a new battlefield!"

This is a sentence written by Tan Tai Mingyue in her battlefield diary, but in order to reduce the sadness, she did not write why the soldiers were in tears at an ordinary farewell.

Because the war is not over, both Tang Dao and the soldiers who are saluting know that this farewell may be indefinite.

No one dares to guarantee that they can survive this cruel war.

So, everyone just saluted, and no one said goodbye.

Goodbye means never seeing each other again.

The fact is that among the more than 2,000 people here, only one in ten will be able to see each other again after the war.
