Chapter 47
Zhao Zhiguo first found Gao Cang and Zhao Ziming and told them what the teacher had said.
"It seems that the Jinsui Army did not take us in for free. It turns out that we are the bargaining chips in their hands!"
Gao Cang was a little unhappy when he heard the news. It was obvious that they were being taken advantage of.
"What's wrong? You got scared when you heard that you were going to fight with the Japs?" Zhao Zhiguo said sharply.
In fact, Zhao Zhiguo wanted to laugh when Gao Cang complained. It was always subordinates who complained to superiors. He had never seen superiors complain in front of subordinates.
Superiors should always show their composure in front of their subordinates like "Taishan collapses in front but remains unchanged; elk thrives on the left but does not blink". Unexpectedly, in order to stabilize morale, Zhao Zhiguo also learned this trick.
"Company Commander, you know that's not what I meant. I was afraid of being used as cannon fodder by others and dying in an unknown way."
They went to the Hutong area, obviously to block the bullets of the Jinsui Army. They were working hard in the front, while the Jinsui Army was living and drinking in the back.
"Tell the brothers, I, Zhao Zhiguo, will not embarrass them. If you don't want to leave, come to me to sign up. I, Zhao Zhiguo, guarantee with my military honor that I will never embarrass them."
After arriving in the Hutong area, the situation the troops will face will be very complicated. Zhao Zhiguo will never want those who are not determined.
Once a war breaks out, those who are not determined will most likely become deserters. It is better to send them off at this time than to become deserters when the war breaks out.
"Company Commander, brothers are already good enough. Without you, we would have lost our lives so many times. Brothers are definitely not cowards."
Dianhou is determined to follow Zhao Zhiguo. As long as Zhao Zhiguo doesn't work as a lackey for the Japs, he will definitely follow Zhao Zhiguo all the way to the dark side.
Tao Xueyi also learned that Zhao Zhiguo and the others were about to leave, and quickly drove to the northwest army's station.
"Let's go out and meet. There's a lot of war. I don't know when the next meeting will be." Zhao Ziming persuaded Zhao Zhiguo.
Zhao Zhiguo nodded and decided to meet Tao Xue.
"Get out of the way and let him in."
When the soldiers on guard saw Zhao Zhiguo coming, they were still hesitating whether to let him go. After all, the division commander's order had not been lifted.
"Don't worry, I will bear the blame if the division commander blames you." Zhao Zhiguo saw the soldier's worry.
"It seems that Brother Zhao doesn't want to leave with us?"
He hadn't even seen Zhao Zhiguo for so many days. It was obvious that Zhao Zhiguo didn't want to see him.
If Zhao Zhiguo really wanted to see him, with his ability to surprise the Japanese headquarters, the guards would not be able to stop him.
Zhao Zhiguo did not directly answer Tao Xueyi: "The troops will leave in the next few days, and we will go to the Hutong area."
"I heard that it won't be long before we leave. I don't know when we can see each other again in the future."
The Central Army also received orders. They would soon have combat missions, but they would not go north, but south. There were no Japanese troops in the south.
"We will definitely meet again." Zhao Zhiguo said with a smile, "Brother Tao has been promoted to lieutenant colonel at such a young age, and his future in the Central Military Army is bright."
Zhao Zhiguo certainly doesn't need to worry about Tao Xueyi's future. Even if he doesn't go to the battlefield, the people behind him will push him to a high position.
"By the way, I'll give you this gun!" Tao Xueyi took out a pistol.
"Good guy, Browning M1911, this gun is not cheap. I don't dare to accept it."
Zhao Zhiguo recognized the pistol in Tao Xueyi's hand at a glance.
"Sometimes I really wonder if you are just an ordinary private, do you know me here?"
Although this gun is produced in large quantities, in today's China, it is only bought by wealthy people themselves. Ordinary soldiers will not recognize the model of this gun at a glance.
"There was someone like you who doubted whether I was a private at first, but finally he accepted the reality."
"This gun is very powerful. If it hits the arm with one shot, it can take away half of the kid's shoulder." Tao Xueyi said, "Take it, this means I have taken advantage of you. I'll give it to you."
In return.”
"Then I'd rather be respectful than obey. I don't have anything to give you." Zhao Zhiguo said and took out the pistol seized from the little Japanese lieutenant colonel. "This is the gun of the little Japanese commander."
"Si Ye Dacheng? Yes, that's the name of that little Japanese captain." Tao Xueyi had already learned from their intelligence system the name of the Japanese captain Zhao Zhiguo killed, and his name was also engraved on the pistol. "
Are you willing to give me this gun?"
Although this gun is just an ordinary bastard box, it contains huge glory.
"I don't like this gun. Don't go to the battlefield with it. The firing pin of the kid's pistol is unstable and easy to jam. It is difficult to commit suicide. I suspect that the kid likes to use a knife to cut his belly. It is too scary to commit suicide with this gun.
, fire a shot without making a sound, fire a shot without making a sound, it is easy to scare yourself to death."
"Hahaha, Brother Zhao, you are so good at joking."
Since Zhao Zhiguo was willing to give it to him, Tao Xueyi was also happy to accept it.
Both of them are upright soldiers, so it is natural to talk about military matters when they meet.
When Zhao Zhiguo asked Tao Xueyi where his troops were going, Tao Xueyi kept silent. Zhao Zhiguo also had a rough guess.
"The international situation is complicated, and the country is suffering from internal and external troubles." Tao Xueyi sighed, "Are you really not going to follow me?"
"I, Zhao Zhiguo, have my gun pointed at the Japs. Go to the north and there will be Japs to fight."
"Hahaha, you are a smart man. I also want to go north, but military orders cannot be violated, so let's leave here."
Tao Xueyi also knew that Zhao Ziming had guessed where he was going, and he used laughter to cover up his dissatisfaction. There was nothing he could do.
Later, Tao Xueyi, who was in the south, really regretted that he should have followed Zhao Zhiguo to the north when he was in the Jinyang area, even if he was no longer the leader.
Not long after Tao Xueyi left, the school officials who had been drinking with Zhao Zhiguo at the beginning also came to see Zhao Zhiguo. They did not persuade Zhao Zhiguo to stay, but they brought him a lot of food and supplies.
"Brothers, thank you, but you've made me feel like I'm a live-in son-in-law, and I'm a little embarrassed."
"You call us brother, but we still have to give you a few good things. But the third child is stingy. He also has a good gun hidden there and refuses to take it out." An officer joked.
"A gentleman does not take away people's love. I am very happy that you gave me these things. Thank you brothers. When I finish beating the little devil one day, I will definitely set a good table and let's have a good time until we get drunk."
The friends Tao Xueyi made are really good. Regardless of their military abilities, at least there is no discrimination between the central army and local warlords, and they are all treated equally.
Zhao Zhiguo also recognized these friends from the bottom of his heart, but in the blink of an eye, they were about to go their separate ways. Zhao Zhiguo also sincerely thanked them for taking care of them these days.
"gather!"
