Chapter 22: Hibernation

"There is nothing serious about him. The bullet did not hit his vitals. Besides, he is in good health and can get out of bed after half a month's rest." Tangcheng invited all the famous doctors in Macheng to come to Cyclamen. Whether they are Western medicine or Chinese medicine, as long as they

If he can cure a nine-pound injury, Tang Cheng will give him a hefty reward. The doctor's final diagnosis finally put an expression of relief on Tang Cheng's face, and his tense heart finally fell to the ground. He was shot twice.

The nine kilograms were not in danger of life, and Tang Cheng, who was physically and mentally exhausted, finally fell asleep.

"Starting from today, each of you must learn to ride a horse, and the horses in the backyard must be taken good care of. They will be our means of transportation from Macheng to Sichuan." The first thing Tang Cheng did after waking up from a comatose night was to ride.

Niu Laogui and the others went to practice horseback riding. Niu Laogui, a native Sichuanese, had already told Tangcheng about the road conditions into Sichuan. It was indeed a good idea to abandon the cumbersome truck. However, because Niu Laogui and the others could not ride horses, they became Tangcheng's indispensable faces.

The biggest problem is right.

"Company Commander Tang, this is what our master asked us to deliver. Please take it." After breakfast, the rosy-faced Butler Huang came to Cyclamen, and also brought a little baby that Captain Huang had sent to Tangcheng.

Box. Tang Cheng, who was not sure what was going on, opened the small box at the instruction of Butler Huang. There were three gold bars and some oceans in the box. Tang Cheng looked at Butler Huang who was sitting opposite him with some confusion. If it was just

According to the spoils division agreed upon with Captain Huang early in the morning, the money was obviously too much.

"Boss Hu's shop has been closed down by my husband. Boss Hu's crime of being a bandit is also iron-clad. These gold bars were taken from Boss Hu's house. Dayang calculated the price of Boss Hu's tavern. According to you and

The agreement my master made earlier, here is the 30% you deserve." After listening to Butler Huang's explanation, Tang Cheng, who was confused, understood the whole story, but he was not impressed by Boss Hu's ability to save money.

Quite a surprise.

"My wife also specially asked me to bring half a fan of pork and some chickens and ducks, saying that it would be a good refreshment for you, Captain Tang, and your brothers." After polite greetings with Tang Cheng for a while, Huang said the matter was settled.

The butler said goodbye and left, but the things he brought were filled with several tables. The broken soldiers Niu Laogui had found have now moved into Cyclamen, and the murderous guys in Tangcheng are almost going to kill them.

Cyclamen was booked. Under Tangcheng's silver bullet offensive, the shopkeeper here promised that Cyclamen would not be open to the public from now on.

It is nothing new in Macheng to follow Captain Huang to have meat. The soldiers of the garrison who participated in the bandit suppression operation all received a share of money. Although they are not like the old Northeast, each of them has 10 yuan, but Captain Huang

The money distributed was enough for them to find a tavern and live like rich people for a few days. Following Captain Huang to have meat to eat was the reason why Tangcheng asked the defeated soldiers to disperse deliberately and get what they wanted.

Tangcheng didn't want a large number of defeated troops to come to cyclists to make trouble for them, so it was the best way to lure them to the garrison.

Now Captain Huang is in pain and happiness. His garrison has become famous after successfully suppressing the bandits. It has expanded from 0 people to more than 500 people now. If it weren't for Captain Huang who has no ambition and money,

Due to the tight situation, Mrs. Huang might take all the defeated troops in Macheng into her pocket. The bandits captured alive in Sandaoling have been shot in public. As the person who helped the bandits sell their stolen goods and provided information, Boss Hu's house was confiscated

After that, he was thrown into prison and died in prison within a few days. The only people who benefited from it from beginning to end were Tang Cheng and Captain Huang.

Macheng returned to peace. Apart from going out to ride horses from time to time, the Tangcheng group who had no trivial matters now only stayed in the cyclamen to recover from their injuries. "Company Commander Tang, my master invites you to come over and have a talk." I haven't seen you for two days.

Butler Huang, who used to walk with a stooped posture, is now full of energy. Not only is he wearing his military uniform properly, but he also has an extra shell gun in his waist. The leisurely and contented Tang Cheng has been looking through Xie Bo's leftovers for the past two days.

Although he couldn't guess why Captain Huang called him over in the notebook, Tang Cheng still took Liu Shitou to Huang's house.

"I sent some people to inquire around. There is Niutou Mountain 80 miles north of the county. There is a group of bandits on the mountain. I heard that they specialize in spreading smoke and soil. Should we pull the garrison out and fight again?" The troop strength has been expanded to 500.

Captain Huang was confident when he spoke, but his reason made Tang Cheng dumbfounded. On the way here, Tang Cheng had been speculating on the reason why Captain Huang asked him to come. If he knew that Huang

The group leader is plotting against bandits again, so he will definitely not come.

Money moved people's hearts. It was clear that Captain Huang in front of him was not just trying to drag the garrison out to compete with the bandits. Tang Cheng knew that Captain Huang was more interested in the cigarettes or money in the hands of the bandits. If it were the former one,

Tang Cheng might still despise Captain Huang in his heart, but after experiencing Nanjing and Mengcheng, and under Liu Yangyang's subtle influence, Tang Cheng knew that in this troubled world, only having a full stomach was important.

"Captain Huang, I think you also know what the situation is like over there right now. Besides, your garrison is so strong now that you don't need my help at all. If you want to deal with those bandits, use a few veterans who have fought in the war to lead them."

Just go ahead, newbies, I can lend you the machine gun." Tangcheng's only purpose now is to recover from his injuries as soon as possible. He takes the garrison to fight the bandits just to get enough horses for himself with the help of the garrison. In this way

Just do it once. Tangcheng doesn't want another bedridden Jiu Jin to appear in Cyclamen.

Commander Huang repeatedly tried to persuade him to no avail, so he had no choice but to let Tang Cheng leave the Huang Mansion. However, when Tang Cheng arrived, he promised to lend the machine gun to the garrison to fight the bandits. "Which of you wants to go? If anyone wants to go with the garrison.

Yes, I will tell Butler Huang." During dinner, Tang Cheng mentioned this matter in front of everyone. It is another opportunity to make money. Heizi and the others don't care, but it doesn't mean that Lao Dongbei and Niu Laogui don't care, let alone

Captain Huang has always been very generous.

There is no shortage of people in Tangcheng now. The incident at Sandaoling made Tangcheng realize the insufficiency of his ability. Commanding a company in Mengcheng was forced by Liu Yangyang to add fuel to the flames. The battle at Beishan Pass actually proved the insufficiency of Tangcheng's ability.

If Tangcheng hadn't been overwhelmed by the death of Liu Yangyang when they evacuated Mengcheng, if it hadn't been for the help of Zhang Zhan and his defeated troops of the 173rd Division, and if it hadn't been that the rice field squadron they encountered were just student soldiers, maybe Tangcheng

Cheng's confidence will not be as high as it was when he first came to Macheng.

What Tangcheng faced at Sandaoling was just a group of bandits, and they were bandits with neither equipment nor numbers. Even so, Tangcheng's carefully prepared layout was almost broken by the bandits. There was a garrison group with low combat effectiveness.

factors, as well as terrain factors, but to a large extent it was the fault of the commander Tang Cheng. Tang Cheng mistakenly underestimated the insight and reaction ability of the bandits, and also overestimated the power of the machine gun. If it were not for Niu Ni

Lao Gui and the other veterans are holding on to the table. Maybe Tangcheng will not be able to annihilate all the bandits on Sandao Ridge this time, but will also cause heavy casualties to the garrison.

On the second day after returning to Macheng, Tang Cheng, who had regained his energy, was reflecting on himself. All the scenes since leaving Shanghai flashed in his mind. Thinking about it carefully, Tang Cheng found that he did not seem to have what Xie Bo said.

With that kind of commanding ability, Tang Cheng also imagined that he could command the Second Company to fight fiercely with the Japanese army like Liu Yangyang, but this was not the case. Tang Cheng had already discovered his shortcomings in ability, commanding a 15-man infantry squad or

There is no problem with an infantry platoon of 48 people, but once the number exceeds 50, Tangcheng's shortcomings will immediately become apparent.

Already aware of his shortcomings, Tang Cheng, who was free, began to look through the notebook left by Xie Bo, trying to find a solution. It was for this reason that Tang Cheng refused to continue to participate in the bandit suppression.

My suggestion is that instead of causing more casualties due to my own lack of ability, I would rather use this time to consult with veterans like Niu Laogui.

If Tangcheng didn't stop Niu Laogui and the others from going to suppress the bandits with the garrison, they should be much better than those newly recruited by Captain Huang after having already dealt with the bandits. "You really don't want to go?" Tangcheng was a little worried.

I looked at Niu Laogui and Lao Dongbei unexpectedly. It stands to reason that Niu Laogui, who wants to return home in glory, should join the bandit suppression. This is a good opportunity to make money. It will be far away to go home with enough money.

There are more scenes than going home empty-handed.

"He is a man who cherishes his life. If you ask around the county, you will know that he only wants to go home and will not go where guns are flying." Before Niu Laogui could say anything, Lao Dongbei, who stayed with him,

I joked first. The days of wine and meat made Lao Dongbei reluctant to miss Shu. He couldn't save money and didn't have much thought about money. At worst, he would find another place to live in Tangcheng if he couldn't survive. I miss him.

Such machine gunners are a type of service that many troops lack.

Niu Laogui was a little embarrassed by what Lao Dongbei said. In fact, he was indeed a person who cherished his life. If he hadn't been absolutely sure, he would never have been the first one when Sandaoling surrounded and annihilated the bandits.

"Well, since you two don't want to go, then you should hurry up and learn to ride a horse. When Jiu Jin can get out of bed, we will leave Macheng." After getting along with Captain Huang, Tang Cheng got it from Mrs. Huang.

I got a few newspapers from a month ago. Judging from the reports in the newspapers, the situation is very bad now. Tang Cheng doesn't know what the current war situation is, but he knows that getting to Sichuan as soon as possible is the most urgent thing.
