Qin Wei heard what Gu Sheng said and nodded in agreement.

"Commissar, you said too much. I was thinking in the wrong way."

....................

At this time, He Daming and Zhang Yang came to the 29th Division’s base, talking and laughing all the way.

They went straight into the division headquarters. When the division political commissar Huang Fa saw his division commander and deputy army commander He Daming coming back, he immediately greeted them.

"Deputy Commander He, Commander Zhang, you are back."

He Daming and Zhang Yang nodded in succession.

"Well, I'm back from the Jiankang Military Academy. Political Commissar Huang, please go and inform all officers and soldiers of the 29th Division that I have something to announce."

When Huang Fa heard He Daming's order, he immediately went to prepare...

20 minutes later, all the officers and soldiers of the 29th Division gathered on the open ground. The more than 1 people gathered in a black mass, which looked very spectacular.

He Daming held a megaphone, cleared his throat, and shouted to the officers and soldiers of the 29th Division: "Comrades, I am He Daming. I have just received a notice from the military headquarters that our entire 29th Division will go to Shancheng tomorrow to merge into the 54th Army.

Everyone has one day to prepare. Tomorrow morning we will all set off for Wucheng Railway Station. The meeting is adjourned!"

When the officers and soldiers of the 29th Division heard the news that they were leaving the 15th Army, they were deeply touched.

The expressions on their faces were also different at this time. Some of them looked reluctant to leave, after all, they had been in the 15th Army for many years.

Some of them had their faces full of anticipation. After all, they thought that the mountain city in Chongqing Province was pretty good. They heard that there were a lot of Chongqing women there, and then they could solve the problem of being single that had troubled them for many years.

After issuing the military order, He Daming returned to his residence and began to pack his luggage. In fact, he didn't have much, just some pots, pans, and a quilt.

Just as he was busy cleaning up, there was a knock on the door.

“Dong…Dong…”

When He Daming heard the hurried knock on the door, he was a little confused, wondering who would come so late.

For this reason, he immediately asked: "Who?"

A loud voice sounded outside the door.

"Deputy Commander He, it's me, Zhang Yang!"

When He Daming heard that the person coming was Zhang Yang, he immediately opened the door. What came into his sight were Zhang Yang, Xiang Shaozhi and Cui Dake.

He Daming was very surprised to see them coming.

"Three commanders, why are you here?"

Facing He Daming's question, Zhang Yang was the first to speak and responded: "Deputy Commander He, aren't we leaving tomorrow?

Lao Xiang and Lao Cui are going to practice for us

When He Daming heard what was going on, he immediately laughed heartily.

"Hahaha... I see. Well, don't just stand there like an idiot. Come in and sit down."

Following He Daming's greeting, Zhang Yang and others immediately filed in.

The sharp-eyed He Daming also noticed that Xiang Shaozhi was holding a few bottles of wine in his hands, so he knew that he would not go home until he was drunk tonight.

After the four of them sat down, Xiang Shaozhi could not wait to bring up the wine in his hand, unscrewed the lid directly, and took out the teacup he carried with him and began to pour it.

"Come on, Deputy Commander He, Lao Zhang, I'll fill your glasses first."

He Daming waved his hand when he saw this.

"Master Xiang, you are too polite.

I think this is the best way. Since there are no outsiders here today, we don’t need to call me army commander or division commander. Just call me by my name.”

Cui Dake, who was standing by, was stunned for a moment when he heard what He Daming said.

"Deputy Commander He, isn't this inappropriate?"

He Daming waved his hand.

"What's inappropriate? We've all been to the battlefield together and carried guns together."

As the most courageous person among the people present, Zhang Yang directly shouted,

"Ming..."

He Daming: “Hmm…”

When Xiang Shaozhi and Cui Dake saw Zhang Yang's move, they both shouted boldly,

"Da Ming..."

He Daming also responded one by one.

Then Xiang Shaozhi took the lead in raising his teacup to toast He Daming and Zhang Yang.

"Lao He, Lao Zhang, I, Xiang Shaozhi, am a rough man and I don't know how to say nice things.

I wish you all will continue to shine and make contributions in the 54th Army and everything will go smoothly for you.”

When He Daming and Zhang Yang heard what Xiang Shaozhi said, they also raised their teacups enthusiastically in response.

"Thank you, Lao Xiang. You are so thoughtful."

Afterwards, Cui Dake also followed Shao Zhi's example and saluted He Daming and Zhang Yang again.

After one round, everyone began to discuss the future direction.

"Lao He, Lao Zhang, I envy you for being able to develop in the 54th Army. I heard that Commander Zhong is humble and kind, and he is a good commander."

As soon as Xiang Shaozhi finished speaking, Zhang Yang on the side immediately interrupted and said, "Old Xiang, you don't understand this. Have you forgotten that Commander Zhong is our Old He's sworn brother? With him taking care of us, our Old He will definitely be prosperous."

He Daming also grinned when he heard Zhang Yang's words.

"Old Zhang, it's okay if you're doing well, but it shouldn't be too bad.

As for Lao Xiang and Lao Cui, you should take good care of yourselves in the 15th Army, and we must keep in touch."

...........................

That night, He Daming, Zhang Yang and the other three talked until late at night, as if they had endless things to say.

After all, we don’t know when we will meet again after this separation.

At five o'clock the next morning, a loud assembly call sounded.

All the officers and soldiers of the 29th Division quickly got up from their beds. Military trucks had already gathered on the open space of the 15th Army’s base and were parked there in an orderly manner.

The officers and soldiers of the 29th Division, carrying their bags, began to get on the bus in an orderly manner.

Commanders He Daming, Zhang Yang and others were not delayed by yesterday's drinking, but got up early in the morning with the officers and soldiers.

They were riding in a military jeep.

在15军44师和45师全体官兵的欢送下,以何大明为首的29师车队缓缓的离开了15军驻地,朝着孝天市的方向疾驰。

He Daming looked through the car window at the soldiers of the 15th Army who were gradually going away. He still felt an inexplicable nostalgia in his heart. After all, he had spent quite a while with them.

The soldiers of the 44th and 45th Divisions also admired Deputy Commander He from the bottom of their hearts. He was an outstanding commander in terms of strategy, interpersonal relationships, and treating people and things.
