"The division commander's order, your battalion continues to hold its position!" the communications soldier from the division headquarters told Zhao Zhiguo.

"Are you still being unreasonable? Our battalion only has half the strength left, and two-thirds of the soldiers of this half strength are injured." Dianhou was unhappy on the spot.

No one understands what they have experienced in the past half month. After experiencing a life-and-death battle, the soldiers are looking forward to having troops to replace them, and then they will retreat to the rear to rest and recuperate.

But now I have been waiting for such an order.

"Is this the intention of the division commander or the intention of the Jinsui Army?" Zhao Zhiguo asked the communications soldier.

After fighting the Japanese army for such a long time, Zhao Zhiguo did not believe that the Jinsui Army did not pay attention to their battle. Their division almost single-handedly disrupted the Japanese army's plan.

Moreover, Commander Zhang and his division have already suffered casualties of more than two-thirds of their troops. If the Japanese army invades again, the Hutong area will be handed over to the little Japanese.

The communications soldier glanced at Dian Hou, and then whispered in Zhao Zhiguo's ear: "It seems that our troops are going to be reorganized."

"What's the meaning?"

The joy of victory disappeared immediately after Zhao Zhiguo heard these words.

"It seems that our division will be merged into the Shanxi-Sui Army, and Commander Zhang will be transferred from the Northwest Army."

Commander Zhang won a victory here. The Northwest Army saw the value of Commander Zhang and could no longer leave Commander Zhang as cannon fodder in the hands of the Jinsui Army. Commander Zhang must be transferred back and put to another important use.

The Jinsui Army did not want to lose a division of cannon fodder. They also saw this battle in their eyes. Although they had no intention of reusing Commander Zhang, they could continue to let Commander Zhang block the Japanese attack for them.

The two sides finally reached an agreement, each taking a step back. The Northwest Army only had Commander Zhang, and the rest of the officers and soldiers were left to the Jinsui Army.

"I'm afraid it won't take a few days for the order to come down. The Northwest Army has already sent people to Yan Laoxi's office. As for the specific discussion, I definitely don't know." the communications soldier added.

Ever since the Japanese army retreated, Commander Zhang has been unable to get away. First, he had to go to the Shanxi-Sui Army to report on the battle situation, then he had to meet with the commander or commander of the Northwest Army, and he also faced various reviews to ensure that

Commander Zhang is still loyal to the Northwest Army.

After Commander Zhang learned the news, he also thought about staying, but the superiors continued to put pressure on him, either to let him return to the Northwest Army or to relieve him of his status as a soldier.

In the end, Mr. Zhang had to compromise, but he still wanted to take Zhao Zhiguo away.

However, the Jinsui Army and the Northwest Army reached an agreement. No matter how many people were left in the entire division, only Commander Zhang could leave, and no one was allowed to be taken away.

Two days later, when Zhao Zhiguo's soldiers were still immersed in the joy of their victory, the first order was issued to Zhao Zhiguo.

The division headquarters ordered that Zhao Zhiguo handed over the command of the position to Gao Cang and headed for Pingcheng.

Almost all the soldiers on the battlefield thought that Zhao Zhiguo was going to be promoted. After all, after such a big victory, it would not be too much to promote Zhao Zhiguo to a regimental commander. Everyone was happy for Zhao Zhiguo.

"Put away my guns." Zhao Zhiguo took off his two pistols and handed them to Yao Pengju.

Yao Pengju didn't understand why Zhao Zhiguo did this, but he just took the gun as a reflex.

"Batalion Commander..." Yao Pengju wanted to ask something.

"Dian Hou, distribute the silver coins on the position to the brothers as I said. Divide half of the weapons and ammunition we captured and hide them with the remaining silver coins. Cover them with wooden boards and fill the surface with soil. They must be hidden.

Okay." Zhao Zhiguo said to Dianhou.

"Battal Commander, why are you acting like you are explaining your funeral arrangements? We are still waiting for you to become the group leader." Dian Hou also had some Zhang Er monks who were confused as to why Zhao Zhiguo wanted to explain these things to them.

"Okay, I'll leave everything on the battlefield to you. If you have anything to discuss, please discuss it."

Pingcheng, because the Japanese army carried out countless bombings in Pingcheng before the war broke out, the burnt black ruins were crumbling, and the people on the road were walking in a hurry.

The Lunar New Year is just around the corner, but there is no Chinese New Year atmosphere in the city. There are no vendors selling goods. The occasional firecrackers set off by naughty children make the people in the city change their minds when they hear it. This is followed by adults cursing children and children crying.

Voice.

The bombing by the Japanese army has made everyone in Pingcheng panic. I am afraid that many people will not have a stable life this New Year.

As he walked further into the city, Zhao Zhiguo saw more and more displaced people, huddled in corners, shivering in the cold wind.

In this bombing, many people lost their homes, their loved ones, and everything they owned in this life. Everything was reduced to ashes with the explosion and dissipated with the cold wind.

A few beggars, with their ankles exposed in the cold wind, huddled at the foot of the wall in the sun, greedily enjoying the only warmth in the world. They kicked their hands into their arms. Hungry and cold, they could only choose one, a broken bowl.

At their feet, it was their only property, and they were afraid that it would be robbed by other beggars.

Zhao Zhiguo lowered his head, not daring to take another look. This scene was more biting than the cold wind, but what could he do?

If Zhao Zhiguo throws a dollar into a beggar's bowl, countless beggars will crowd in around him, and Zhao Zhiguo will not be allowed to leave until Zhao Zhiguo is cleaned.

However, as much as Zhao Zhiguo sympathized with them at this moment, he would sympathize with himself the next time.

The division headquarters is both familiar and unfamiliar to Zhao Zhiguo. The last time he came to the division headquarters, it was very lively. The scene of Chief of Staff Qian impressed Zhao Zhiguo and the others deeply. Dianhou often talked about this matter in front of them when he was bored. Occasionally

Use your hand to make a gesture on your chest and say something big, the chief of staff will really enjoy it.

When walking into the headquarters, the person in front of me, Zhao Zhiguo, was both familiar and unfamiliar. The person sitting in the division commander's seat was not Commander Zhang, but Lu Ziming.

Yesterday afternoon, Lu Ziming was promoted to division commander because of his outstanding military exploits. He was also the division commander of the Shanxi-Sui Army. As for how this merit came about, Lu Ziming knew very well.

Zhao Zhiguo looked at the rank of Major General on Lu Ziming's shoulder and immediately understood what it meant. It was not Master Zhang who asked him to come, but Lu Ziming who asked him to come.

"Hello, sir!" Zhao Zhiguo still saluted Lu Ziming respectfully.

"Arrest Zhao Zhiguo!"

Lu Ziming personally arranged his major general uniform and was very satisfied, and then directly ordered the surrounding soldiers to arrest Zhao Zhiguo.

"Mr. Lu, what crime did I, Zhao Zhiguo, commit, and why did you arrest me?" Zhao Zhiguo asked angrily.

"During the war, I lost contact with the troops for half a month. I have reason to suspect that you defected to the Japanese army or reached an agreement with the Japanese army and secretly communicated with the Japanese invaders!" Lu Ziming said to Zhao Zhiguo with a smile.

"What evidence do you have!"
