The staff officers under Gao Cang all felt that Zhao Zhiguo had an eye for both front and rear. Although he was not the kind of person who knew the first five hundred years and the next five hundred years, he could at least know what would happen in the next one or two months!

"Don't make blind guesses, don't do good deeds because they are trivial, and don't do evil deeds because they are trivial. In the words of Buddhism, make good friends," Gao Cang said.

Zhao Zhiguo is just doing his best to do things, even though these things seem to have no benefits in a short period of time.

"Maybe our long-term vision is not as good as the commander's," a staff officer said.

"Stop discussing this issue, let our logistics department prepare food and clothing for 300 people. We should end this task." Gao Cang said, "There is no need to escort them to Anyang Town and rest for a day in our defense area.

Send them directly to Pingcheng, I don't want to support these uncles."

With the matter of defecting from the puppet army settled, Yao Pengju also concluded the review.

After coming out, Zhao Zhiguo treated Yao Pengju specially.

First, Yao Pengju really suffered during this period, and secondly, Yao Pengju made great contributions.

"Making meritorious service? Commander, you were coaxed like a three-year-old child. How could I have done meritorious service?"

Yao Pengju knew very well that he spent a lot of time going to Bingzhou but did not obtain any information about the Japanese airfield.

"You will know," Zhao Zhiguo said, "Ding Yucheng's reconnaissance team has found several good places for us in the past two days. Starting tomorrow, you will accompany me and visit all these places."

It was the first time that the First Military Division set up an air observation post. Of course, Zhao Zhiguo had to take a look in person.

Secondly, after the observation post has been selected, Zhao Zhiguo still needs to choose a location for their air defense troops to be stationed.

There are too many people in the city and the information about the deployment of anti-aircraft weapons to Pingcheng is likely to be leaked to the Japs.

Therefore, Zhao Zhiguo had to find a place in the wild with convenient transportation. After all, their anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns had to be deployed on trucks.

Using trucks to pull anti-aircraft guns can maintain high-speed mobility. What Zhao Zhiguo needs is their ability to deploy quickly and retreat quickly.

Don't let the little devils capture the location of the anti-aircraft weapon positions.

"Old Yao's contribution may not be great or small. Let's give him a verbal commendation." Matthew said, "and then inform the whole army."

"I think it's good. You have made meritorious service and should be rewarded, but you don't lack anything!" Zhao Zhiguo said.

"Que! Why not? I still want to marry a wife." Yao Pengju said.

"Bi thinks I don't know. Before we joined the Eighth Route Army, you saved up enough money to marry a wife. Do you want me to dig it out for you?"

Before joining the Eighth Route Army, all trophies captured in combat belonged to the individual.

At that time, Yao Pengju took the lead in rummaging through the kid's corpse for valuables, even the kid's gold teeth.

In the past few years, Yao Pengju has been extremely stingy and spent Zhao Zhiguo's money whenever he went out. He must have saved a lot of money.

"No, no, no, no, the political commissar is still here, so don't expose me." Yao Pengju said embarrassedly.

"Political Commissar, there is one more thing I want to trouble you with," Zhao Zhiguo said to Matthew Wen.

"Nothing is troublesome. We are all engaged in revolutionary work. As long as it is our Eighth Route Army's business, there will be no trouble," said Mao Wen.

"Gao Cang sent a telegram. There is news about the defection from the puppet army. It is up to you to do the united front work. You must persuade them and write a letter to the puppet army in Bingzhou City!" Zhao Zhiguo said.

First communicate with the puppet troops in Bingzhou City through letters. When the time is right, if any of them want to go to Bingzhou, you can send someone to protect them when they go to Bingzhou.

"Don't worry, leave this matter to me!"

"Eat quickly, the food is cold. When we are full, we will go back and pack up, and we will set off at dawn tomorrow." Zhao Zhiguo said.

Every inch of land to the east has the blood of Chinese soldiers and people.

The little devil's iron hooves came from the east, broke the peace in Hutong area, and started killing.

Every inch of the country has Chinese soldiers sacrificing their lives and blood!

Zhao Zhiguo is very familiar with this land because he once led his troops in a bloody battle with the Japanese army here, and many soldiers he was familiar with died on this road.

Looking at the vast fields, Zhao Zhiguo's thoughts were drawn back to a few years ago, when there was a great rout and a large area of ​​land was lost overnight.

On the outskirts of Pingcheng, the Japanese artillery seemed to be still rumbling, blasting open an ancient city wall.

Continuing to the east is the road position where Zhao Zhiguo and others once stationed.

It was precisely because Zhao Zhiguo was guarding here that it was difficult for the Japanese army to move forward.

Unfortunately, in a comprehensive battle, Zhao Zhiguo's partial victory could not save the defeat. They were unable to support themselves and they had to evacuate.

Today, Japanese troops are stationed at the highway position!

There were changes in the offensive and defensive sides. The Japs were guarding the road position and were condescending.

If Zhao Zhiguo and the others want to continue to regain their lost ground to the east, the road position is a difficult problem before them.

Of course, Zhao Zhiguo was not in a hurry to send troops to the east. He would attack steadily and capture Bingzhou first, so that his troops would have no worries.

As the territory expands, Zhao Zhiguo and the others will have more weapons to retake the road position.

After seizing the highway position, the road to the east was clear, and they could fight wherever they wanted.

"Commander, if we walk half a day further, we will reach the territory we are most familiar with." Yao Pengju reined in his horse.

Because the war horse felt uncomfortable, it kept spinning on the spot, protesting why Yao Pengju didn't let him run forward happily.

"It's been more than three years, I didn't expect it!" Zhao Zhiguo sighed.

"Yeah, I didn't expect that we would come back with a fight. I guess even the little devil wouldn't have thought of it," Yao Pengju said.

"When I regain that position, I'm going to pay homage to my brothers who died there."

Although the soldiers who died on the highway positions were not Eighth Route Army soldiers, they also paid their most precious lives to resist the invaders.

The camps are different, but they do the same thing. At this point, there will be no difference between the camps.

"We should pay homage and tell them to let their dead souls rest in peace under the Nine Springs." Yao Pengju said.

As soon as Yao Pengju finished speaking, two war horses galloped toward Zhao Zhiguo and the others in the distance.

"You two go over to greet me!" Yao Pengju looked at the horses in the distance, which should be brothers from the reconnaissance group.

In order to protect Zhao Zhiguo's safety, Yao Pengju asked the two soldiers following him to join him first.

After picking them up, they were confirmed to be brothers from the reconnaissance group and then let them come over.

"Reporting to the commander, the commander of the second company of the first battalion of the reconnaissance regiment reports to you." The company commander saluted.

Zhao Zhiguo replied: "How is the matter of selecting observation points?"
Chapter completed!
