The New Fourth Army quickly swept the battlefield.
Company Commander Gong found Zhang Hu and Feng Ying in the first battalion. Zhang Hu kept asking about the situation of his master. Feng Ying asked with concern: "How is the situation over there?"
"We are under the command of Brigadier Jiang over there, so we can have strong troops and horses, but we are worried that we will not be able to defend here." Captain Gong replied.
Feng Ying said dissatisfied: "Don't forget your own identity and only have the ambition of others!"
"How could I forget? They are all our own people." Company Commander Gong smiled and handed a small bag to Zhang Hu and said: "There is a German shell gun and a hundred rounds of ammunition in it. Brigadier Jiang gave it to you and told you to protect Feng Hu.
Instructor safety.”
Zhang Hu made a military salute with his left hand and said, "Please tell Master that I promise to complete the mission!" He took the things with a smile.
Feng Ying blushed and said: "It is his turn to blindly command our troops. What tasks do you want you to guarantee to complete!"
Zhang Hu said seriously: "Master's officer is higher than Commander Sun, and he has given so much support to our troops. Now when it comes to the united front, of course I have to listen to him."
Company Commander Gong said goodbye to Commander Sun, who said: "Please tell Brigadier Jiang to thank him for his strong assistance. Even if the New Fourth Army fights to the last man, it will hold the line of defense."
"Brigade Commander Jiang wants me to tell you that if you really can't stand it anymore, you can retreat to the Independent Brigade position, and he will send troops to respond." Company Commander Gong said.
Commander Sun said to the commanders around him: "Comrades, we have enough ammunition now. Do we need to retreat to the national army positions?"
"No, don't underestimate the New Fourth Army!" the battalion commanders responded in unison with confidence.
On the way back, Company Commander Gong asked a veteran in the transport team: "Lao Wang, why didn't you sign up to join the New Fourth Army?"
Lao Wang laughed a few times and shook his head silently. He was previously a platoon leader in the Imperial Alliance Army.
"But it doesn't matter if you say it, it doesn't matter if you say it wrong." Company Commander Gong urged.
Only then did Lao Wang speak: "Sir, to be honest, the New Fourth Army is good. What they say is pleasing to the ear, and I am moved by it. Why do we poor people join the army? Is it just to make a living and make some money to support our families? Otherwise, who did it in the first place?
My mother wanted to be a Huang Xiejun, but the common people pointed at her vest and scolded her. I heard that the New Fourth Army did not pay military personnel, and I saw that Captain Sun’s clothes still had patches.
Life must be hard and I'm afraid I won't be able to get used to it. My brothers and I made a plan to join the Independence Brigade when we got back. Your weapons are no worse than those of the Japanese, and you won't be able to fight. You're treated better than I was in the Imperial Alliance Army, and you're a good person.
Although you are a little bit arrogant towards us, it’s because I’m doing transportation now! Well, if you become a soldier and earn your living based on your ability, no one is afraid of you, maybe we can also work as a small official.”
Captain Gong pointed at him and laughed and scolded: "You are a veteran, you are quite scheming. Well, I welcome you on behalf of the Independent Brigade. If I see that you are really capable, I will personally recommend you to be reinstated and serve as your platoon leader!"
The troops of the Independent Brigade all shrunk to the mountainside defense line. There are solid fortifications and a large number of bunker groups here. There are many mines buried on the mountain roads. When the Japanese attack the mountainside position, they are within the range of the heavy artillery on the mountain. Jiang Hailong can rest assured.
The troops were put under the command of Li Ming, who went to the hospital from time to time to perform surgeries in his old profession.
More than 300 wounded people were added to the hospital and it was overcrowded. A tent was set up in the open space of the yard, where the lightly wounded were treated. A heavily armed German weapons company and a special agent company were on duty to guard the surrounding area and maintain order.
Wang Dali was patrolling the yard. Nurse He Yan was working the night shift today. The hospital was overwhelmed and took the initiative to help in the afternoon. When she saw him, she went up to him and said, "Battle Commander Wang, it's freezing cold. Come to the house to rest and have a cup of heat."
Tea bar."
"Thank you. My brothers are all outside. How can I go inside and be lazy? Others like to call me company commander, but you call me battalion commander." Wang Dali said.
"You are originally the battalion commander directly under your command. Others call you that because the secret service company is famous." He Yan explained.
Wang Dali puffed up his chest and said bluntly: "That's true."
He Yan chuckled and said, "You are a very down-to-earth person and not modest at all."
Wang Dali rubbed his head and said, "I am straight-tempered and I don't know how to turn around when I speak."
He Yan looked him up and down with a smile and said, "Your dress is torn on the chest, let me mend it for you."
Wang Dali hurriedly declined, "It doesn't matter, it's just a small hole, I won't bother you anymore."
He Yan said persistently: "If the small hole is not repaired, it will be rotten to a foot and a half. The battalion commander, please pay attention to your military appearance. Don't move, I will be fine in a moment." He couldn't help but ran into the hospital, and after a while, he jumped up and down to get it.
Here comes the stool and needlework.
Wang Dali had no choice but to sit on the stool and let her do the work. It was cold, so He Yan didn't let him take off his clothes.
He Yan carefully mended the tear and said in a low voice: "A tear in clothes is easy to mend. You have to be careful when fighting. Guns have no eyes. Be careful not to get hurt."
Wang Dali said coaxingly: "I have gone through hundreds of battles, and I don't even have a scar. The captain said that my two brothers are evil stars descended from heaven, and we must take a detour when bullets encounter them!"
He Yan glared at him and said, "You have to be careful, don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case." His eyes were full of concern and reproach.
Wang Dali felt strange, and felt that the glare made him feel so comfortable.
He Yan finished sewing the clothes, stretched her head to Wang Dali's chest, and bit off the sutures. Her hair tickled Wang Dali's face, and the delicious woman's breath made his heart beat fast. He Yan leaned her head against his generous chest.
I feel a sense of solidity and security in my chest, and I don’t want to leave for a long time. The posture of the two of them looks very affectionate and ambiguous.
After the operation, Jiang Hailong, who wanted to exercise outdoors, happened to walk into the yard and coughed twice.
He Yan raised her head in a hurry and hit Wang Dali on the chin with the back of her head. She quickly said sorry and explained to Jiang Hailong that I, I was sewing clothes for him.
Jiang Hailong joked: "Oh, I thought Dali bullied you and you bit him. There is a children's song in our hometown, Wang Lao Wu, Wang Lao Wu, no one can mend your clothes when they are torn. Haha, it seems that our Wang Lao Wu is not Wang Lao Wu.
five!"
Wang Dali grinned stupidly, and He Yan realized the meaning of his words and blushed to the roots of his ears.
Jiang Hailong was still excited and said: "When I saw the silhouettes of the two of you together, one is a big-backed man and the other is petite and delicate, it really looks like the title of a novel."
Wang Dali puffed up his chest and tightened his abdomen and asked: "What novel? Is it a story about anti-Japanese heroes?"
"Wrong, the book is called Beauty and the Beast!" Jiang Hailong laughed.
Wang Dali was dissatisfied and said: "Captain, I don't want to bring someone to ruin my brothers like this."
He Yan was filled with joy when she heard someone call herself a beauty in front of Wang Dali. Thinking of the scene where she and him were stuck together and being spied on, she felt a little embarrassed and said, "You guys talk, I went to the hospital to help.
"Leave quickly.
Wang Dali called after her: "Thank you, nurse Xiao He. Your workmanship is so good, you can't even tell that the clothes have been mended." He Yan felt very happy, but the next words made her feel ashamed.
"Ouch," Wang Dali suddenly screamed strangely, "Why did you leave the needle on my clothes!"
