Chapter 544: Telling the Secret

Zhao Zhiguo has never praised an army. He has never praised even the little Japanese army for having such a strong combat effectiveness.

"Really?" Zhao Zhiguo smiled awkwardly.

"If we find them, how will we get along with them?"

Tian Kezhi has been worried about their future.

Obviously, it was impossible for Zhao Zhiguo to take them back to the Jinsui Army.

The Central Army may not be able to accommodate them either.

Although Zhao Zhiguo arranged for Gao Cang to contact Commander Zhang, Zhao Zhiguo has never mentioned going to the Northwest Army after coming to Anyang Town for such a long time.

Zhao Zhiguo sat up, put on his coat, and leaned his back against the wall.

"What do you think?"

Zhao Zhiguo asked Tian Kezhi.

The twenty years of education Zhao Zhiguo received from childhood cannot be changed just because he spent two years in the Jinsui Army.

He had already sworn an oath in front of that flag, and there was no way he could break his oath!

But that era was different from this era, and his low-handed soldiers had no contact at all.

In the propaganda of the Central Army, those people were portrayed in an unflattering light, and they even deliberately exaggerated and said some sensational things.

This also indirectly affected soldiers under other warlords, including some officers and soldiers under Zhao Zhiguo.

If Zhao Zhiguo really changes his camp with his troops, some officers and soldiers may find it hard to accept it.

When ideas and reality collide, it is also when conflicts intensify. This is how conflicts between roommates appear.

Zhao Zhiguo didn't want to see his brothers killing each other. That scene would become his nightmare.

"Me? What do I have in mind!" Tian Kezhi smiled bitterly, "When I rescued you, the furthest step I thought about was to get to Anyang Town."

Although there were endless things to deal with every day, Tian Kezhi also began to feel confused.

Unlike other officers and soldiers, Tian Kezhi is an intellectual, and his ability to think independently is stronger than most people.

For example, when Yao Pengju identifies with Zhao Zhiguo, he doesn't care what camp he is in, as long as he follows Zhao Zhiguo and goes up the mountain to become the king of the mountain.

Gao Cang might think twice about it, but as Commander Zhang's former guard company commander, Gao Cang would be taken in if he went to join Commander Zhang.

"You are not without ideas! With your knowledge and current combat experience, if you are placed in any regiment of the Jinsui Army, you can at least be a battalion commander."

In an era when most people are illiterate, Tian Kezhi, who is proficient in Japanese, highly educated, and has experience in leading troops in war, has a bright future.

But just before the light arrived, he lived in a remote town, and it seemed that he would never see the light again.

"I..." Tian Kezhi paused for a long time. He seemed to be thinking of his past and his current situation.

Zhao Zhiguo also kept looking at him, waiting for Tian Kezhi to say what was in his heart.

"I want to lead the troops back to my hometown," Tian Kezhi finally said, "but... now it seems that the Jinsui Army has retreated so badly that the Central Army has been unable to resist. It seems that this has become a dream."

Tian Kezhi saw things clearly on the front line.

With the current combat effectiveness of the Chinese army, it is really a fantasy for Tian Kezhi to lead his troops to fight back to the Dongsi Province.

"To be honest, I see hope in our army. With the regiment commander here, everyone is united. The combat effectiveness of our regiment also gives the Japanese army a headache, but...but..."

"It's hard to support a lonely tree!" Zhao Zhiguo added.

"Yes, even if it is a lonely tree, it is difficult to support it. Even though you have worked hard all your life, you can't change it. It's hopeless!"

"I understand how you feel."

Zhao Zhiguo's troops are in danger of being destroyed by the Jinsui Army at any time, and everything may be wiped out.

"Captain, after I deal with things every day, I can't even make a plan for the next step, even if there is a direction!"

Zhao Zhiguo felt the confusion deep in Tian Kezhi's heart.

"If I told you that as long as you do every little thing well, we will attack your hometown and take back the fourth eastern province, would you believe it?"

Zhao Zhiguo also knows that many things in this world have changed because of his arrival, just like the butterfly effect.

In later generations, before the Japs surrendered unconditionally, the Chinese regular army did not regain much lost ground.

Tian Kezhi looked at Zhao Zhiguo with confused eyes: "Really?"

Zhao Zhiguo frowned, he knew whether he should tell this white lie.

"Forget it, I know this is too difficult, and we can't solve the current problem."

Tian Kezhi also saw Zhao Zhiguo's hesitation and did not wait for Zhao Zhiguo to continue.

"Tian Kezhi, you are my brother, and you are also a thoughtful soldier. I don't want to hide it. In fact, I..."

This time it was Zhao Zhiguo's turn and he couldn't speak. He wanted to tell the truth to his brothers who had been with him through life and death, but when the words came to his mouth, his throat felt like he was being choked.

"Actually, I...I'm from over there!"

After saying this, Zhao Zhiguo breathed in the fresh air quickly.

He didn't know what the consequences would be after saying this, maybe Tian Kezhi's landslide and tsunami.

The room was deathly quiet, and Zhao Zhiguo could even hear the crackling sound of the burning oil lamp.

He was waiting for Tian Kezhi to react.

Tian Kezhi's mouth was wide open, and his mind was blank. He didn't know how to respond to Zhao Zhiguo, or he forgot to respond.

"I want to wait until the time is right to tell you! But the secrets buried deep in a person's heart are the hardest to tell."

Zhao Zhi explained incoherently in Chinese.

"Are you really one of theirs?"

"Yes, but... there is no evidence to prove it, but I know their past history, even the place and time of the meeting, and which important people participated."

In this world, indeed no one can prove Zhao Zhiguo's identity.

But those important histories have been engraved in Zhao Zhiguo's mind.

"Captain, I know there is no need for you to fabricate such an identity to deceive me, after all..." Tian Kezhi believed Zhao Zhiguo.

Nowadays, red forces are not favored in China, and Zhao Zhiguo still dares to reveal his identity at this time. Either he really is, or he is crazy.

"Thank you for your trust! If you want to leave Anyang Town, I won't stop you."

People with different beliefs will not be sweet even if they are strong-willed.

"Commander Gao, do they all know about Yao Pengju?"

"I only told you one person, because you are the only one thinking about the further future..."

One thing that makes Tian Kezhi very different from others is that he is planning and creating the future.

Talents like Tian Kezhi will shine no matter which force they are placed in.

"In other words, Commander, are you going to take us to join them?"

"This is what I think! You also know that we are alone, and I have to find a real place for my brothers to live."
