Chapter 351 Comforting the Wounded
After the two brothers finished their conversation, Ye Xiaoyang personally sent Ye Minghao to the ship.
The twelve people who came with Ye Minghao were waiting on the ship with four suitcases.
That night, Ye Minghao and thirteen others arrived at the temporary base in Baoshan, where they would stay tonight.
Three days later, the thirteen people returned safely to the temporary headquarters of the new independent brigade.
When Liang Jiahe saw Brigade Commander Ye Minghao coming back, he hurried to greet him and said:
"Commander, did you have a smooth journey?"
"Lao Liang, arrange for someone to call Lao Wang over. This time, my third brother sent 400 million US dollars."
"Brigade Commander, didn't you ask for $200 million? Why did your third brother give you so much?"
Ye Minghao smiled and said proudly:
"Haha! My third brother always does things unexpectedly. In fact, I know in my heart that he will give more.
Over the years, whenever I asked, he would just give more.”
Liang Jiahe thought that the Ye family in Gusu City was amazing, and that the relationship between Brigade Commander Ye Minghao and his brothers was very good.
"Brigade Commander, your third brother is so kind to you, his brother!"
"Yes! My eldest brother is a bit serious at home, and my third brother and I have had the best relationship since we were young.
When he was a child, he was naughty and his father always scolded him. I didn’t expect that he is the one in our Ye family that his father is most relieved about now.
I was the most sensible person when I was little, but I never expected that after I became an adult, I would become the one that worries my parents the most.”
Having said that, Ye Minghao looked up at the sky.
After listening to this, Liang Jiahe felt that the Ye family was very different from other wealthy families, and that the Ye family was very loving.
No wonder the brigade commander treated his brothers so sincerely. The wealthy Ye family changed his impression of the rich despite his poor peasant background.
"Your parents are worried about your safety, and I'm afraid your brother and sister are worried about your safety too."
Ye Minghao waved his hand and changed the subject.
"My third brother said that his expenses were a bit high recently, so he sent me $400 million.
With this money, the brothers will arrange to send the pensions of the more than 600 brothers who died to their relatives.
Compensation for injured brothers must also be distributed promptly."
"Brigade Commander, I thank you on behalf of my brothers."
"Lao Liang, what are you talking about?
The brothers who died are also my brothers, and it is my responsibility as the brigade commander to take care of their families."
Liangjiahe was more than ten years older than Ye Minghao. Although he was criticized, he was very happy in his heart because the brigade commander treated them as relatives.
Ye Minghao returned to his room, took a shower, changed into clean clothes, and returned to the office.
At this time, Wang Dafu had already come over.
"Commander, you've been traveling for several days straight. You should get some rest after you return."
Ye Minghao waved his hand and said:
"On the way here, I already knew the results of the New Independent Brigade brothers' battles. They were the ones who really worked hard."
Wang Dafu changed the subject and said:
"Just now, the four brothers handed over four boxes containing $400 million to the accountant."
"Okay, Lao Wang, you can take care of the rest."
Wang Dafu nodded and said:
"Some of the injured brothers have recovered and returned to the team, while some have recovered from their injuries but their mobility is not up to standard."
"Arrange to send them to the base as soon as possible."
"That's what I meant, but the brothers are a little reluctant to leave the New Independent Brigade."
“Gather them for a meeting and temporarily send them to the base, which is the safest place.
It’s not that the New Independent Brigade has abandoned them. From the day they joined the New Independent Brigade, they have been brothers for life.
When they arrive at the base, they will help train other brother troops and improve their tactical capabilities."
"That's a good idea! His mobility may not meet the requirements of the new independent brigade, but he can be an instructor."
"That's not my idea. You should remember what happened at the Wanling training base.
Many of those instructors retired due to injuries."
"Yes, yes, how could I forget this?"
Wang Dafu scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed.
“We must explain clearly to our brothers that their identities as soldiers of the new independent brigade cannot be made public.
We must also make it clear to them that we must not bring shame to our New Independent Brigade anywhere."
"Okay, I'll talk to the brothers myself."
"Lao Wang, when we send the brothers to the base this time, please arrange to bring more money with you."
"Brigade Commander, this money..."
"Don't worry about the money. My third brother said that he will cover the expenses of the New Independent Brigade until we defeat the Deep Blue government."
"Commander, I heard that life in the base area is not prosperous."
Ye Minghao nodded and said:
"Lao Wang, I've been to the base area myself. It's really poor there, and all the comrades are having a hard time.
I asked you to bring more money with you, and the extra money will be mainly used to improve the lives of the children in the base.
Children are the future of our Party organization.”
"Okay, I'll arrange it in a moment."
"Lao Wang, please explain to the brothers again. I guess the new independent brigade will leave Anhui Province soon."
Wang Dafu nodded. He had the same guess in his mind, otherwise his superiors would not have given them half a month.
Wang Dafu returned to his office and immediately arranged for someone to notify the soldiers who had recovered from their injuries but had not returned to the team to assemble.
An hour later, more than 80 soldiers came to an open space and sat on the ground.
Everyone looked depressed and whispered to each other, saying that the New Independent Brigade treated them well.
They knew that staying in the new independent brigade would hold their brothers back.
Wang Dafu looked at his brothers and said:
"I was just looking for the brigade commander. He just brought back a large sum of military funds for the new independent brigade."
Suddenly a young man stood up and said:
“Commander, I don’t want injury allowance, I just want to stay in the New Independent Brigade, this is my home.
I don’t have any relatives in my hometown anymore!”
After saying this, he began to cry loudly.
Wang Dafu had to stand up and say loudly:
"Liu Changgen, can you please listen to what I have to say before you cry?
The brigade commander said that from the day you joined the new independent brigade, you are brothers for life.
I came here today to solve your problem, but how can I solve it if you're crying like this?"
Liu Changgen stopped crying immediately.
Wang Dafu continued:
“The brigade commander said that your safety can be guaranteed only in the base area, and that is the main reason.
Another reason is that we hope that the brothers of the new independent brigade will train other brother troops after arriving at the revolutionary base.
Do you remember the Wanling training base? Many of our instructors were retired special forces soldiers.
Do you understand what I am saying?"
The entire playground was eerily quiet. No one was talking to each other. They were all lost in thought.
After a while, Liu Changgen stood up.
"Commander, I am willing to serve as an instructor in the revolutionary base area."
Then, many people raised their hands and said they were willing to go to the base.
Wang Dafu pressed his hands downwards, hoping that everyone would quiet down, as he still had something to say.
The brothers immediately quieted down again.
“The brigade commander said that you must not reveal your identities to others when you arrive at the base.
I also want to emphasize that we should not embarrass the New Independent Brigade outside. The New Independent Brigade is the most elite team.
Do you remember it? "
"Remember!"
Everyone said in unison:
Wang Dafu added:
"After you leave, I guess our new independent brigade will also leave its temporary base in Anhui Province and head to a new place."
Only at this time did everyone truly understand why the leaders had to send them to the revolutionary base.
Some people once thought that after they were injured, the brigade commander paid money to send them away, even though the money he gave them allowed them to live a life of worry-free life.
Now, they truly understand that the new independent brigade has never abandoned them, the wounded and retired personnel.
Someone else stood up and asked:
"Commander, do we need to turn in our weapons and equipment?"
Wang Dafu waved his hand and said:
"You don't need to hand it in, but you can't show it off outside, especially the infrared glasses. You must never give them to others.
Even giving it to the brother troops is not allowed. Do you remember that?"
Someone else stood up and asked:
"Captain, automatic rifles are standard issue for the new independent brigade. Will others suspect us of being..."
"Don't worry about that. The guards of the base leaders are equipped with HX1935 automatic rifles.
Besides, the Deep Blue government army also has this type of automatic rifle. Wouldn't you say it's your own spoils of war?"
The brothers on the playground burst into laughter.
The leadership's arrangements made them feel real care, and not handing over weapons and equipment was the best example.
They are still soldiers of the new independent brigade, but their battlefield is no longer on the front line.
Their job in the future will be to train soldiers, and if they find good talents, they can be sent to the new independent brigade.
The New Independent Brigade needs new blood, and with the start of the civil war between the two parties, the New Independent Brigade is bound to lose personnel.
Even though the leader didn't say these things directly.
If the brothers truly care about the New Independent Brigade, they will take the initiative to consider the New Independent Brigade.
It's not so good if the leader takes the initiative to ask for it. Some of the more than 80 people on the playground already have this idea.
Promises are meaningless; actions are what matter. Just like their brigade commander, if there is no funding, he will find a way on his own.
They are a team organized by the Communist Party and are treated much better than the central army of the deep blue government.
The party organization simply could not afford to support the new independent brigade, as the new independent brigade's funds could support at least 10 brother troops.
The new independent brigade has good food and supplies, and its weapons and equipment are incomparable to other armies.
The allowances for the wounded and the pensions for the sacrificed brothers ensure that their families will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives.
The brigade commander is a college student and his family is very well-off, but he eats and lives with the brothers in the new independent brigade.
It is to enable the poor people in China to live a good life.
