Tang Cheng, who was coaxed into the car, didn't know where he was being pulled. When he got out of the car, he realized that he had arrived in the suburbs. After carefully looking at the surrounding terrain, he realized that he had arrived at Yangshupu. The 88th Division acted as a *
*The elite troops are truly regarded as the direct descendants of the Tigers by Chairman Chiang Kai-shek. The number of the entire division has reached more than 14,000. It is impossible for a large-scale mobilization of such a number of troops to avoid Japanese spies, so
Xie Bo's 1st Battalion was the first group of vanguard troops to enter the Shanghai attack station in advance. The follow-up troops of the 88th Division would not be able to arrive here until night.
Xie Bo, who rushed back to the camp, didn't stop much and went to the battalion commander to report the investigation results. Tang Cheng, who was looking at the new things everywhere, was taken to their newly dug trench by Liu Yangyang. "Old Yangyang, what does this kid do? You
Why did you bring him into our trench? Be careful, the commander will punish you to dig holes if he sees it." Xie Laoliu, a veteran in the same row with Liu Yangyang, looked at Tangcheng dressed as a student, and turned to look at Liu Yangyang's
Their eyes were full of doubts. Like other veterans, they rarely talk to new guys, especially Liu Yangyang. If such a boy was suddenly brought back, could Liu Yangyang like that tone?
"What are you fucking thinking about? This guy is our little brother whom Lian Zuo recognized. He helped us a lot today. He was brought back by Lian Zuo. He has nothing to do with me." Xie Laoliu said with a look in his eyes.
The hidden meaning was clearly revealed to Liu Yangyang. The tense-faced Liu Yangyang spat, and took Tang Cheng, who was looking around like a curious baby, to Xie Bo's headquarters.
"Company Commander Xie lives in a place like this. Can people live here?" Xie Bo is just a small company commander. Even though he is a disciple of the Emperor and was born in Huangpu, there are many officers from Huangpu in the 88th Division. He can have
A headquarters is already very good. After the main force of the division arrives, other company commanders will not have this treatment. "Can't we requisition private houses? Why doesn't Captain Xie take you to live in a house? Why do you have to sleep in it?"
Isn’t it cold at night in this trench?”
Liu Yangyang finally understood Tang Cheng's incessant nagging. He had never listened to Tang Cheng's words since he entered the trenches. He asked Liu Yangyang if he wished he could strangle this kid alive. After all, he was able to talk Tang Cheng off with a few words.
However, Tang Cheng became interested in Xie Bo's military uniform hanging in the headquarters. If Liu Yangyang hadn't been so keen on it, he would have worn it on himself to try out the addiction of being an officer.
"I said, you kid, can't you just calm down for a while? Does this officer touch his things casually? Be careful that he will come back and skin you after a while." Liu Yangyang couldn't control the energetic Tang Cheng anymore, so he had to use his words to threaten him.
He also moved Xie Bo out. In the end, Liu Yangyang unloaded his shell gun and threw it to Tang Cheng to play with, and then he comforted Tang Cheng, "Oh, what evil did I do in my last life?
I just brought back a young man like you."
"What are you complaining about? I heard it all the way outside." Before Xie Bo's people entered the headquarters, the voice came in first, which can make a veteran like Liu Yangyang yell at someone with a headache.
It's not easy. After the report, Xie Bo looked much better. "How is it? Little brother, is it fun here?" As soon as Xie Bo stepped into his headquarters, he saw Tang Cheng playing with the shell gun. He received a message from Liu
After the suggestive look from the goat, Xie Bo felt relieved and gave the kid the shell gun to play with as a toy. Fortunately, Liu Yang could figure it out.
"Hello, sir, my name is Tang Cheng, you can also call me Hutou." Seeing Xie Bo's return, Tang Cheng stood up in a hurry, put down the shell gun in his hand and gave Xie Bo a military salute, but the posture looked a bit awkward.
Seeing Liu Yangyang looking like he wanted to laugh immediately, Tang Cheng explained with a dark face, "The priest who adopted me was a soldier before. He said that this is how the American army salutes. I have never seen your military salute."
.”
"Well, you are right. Military salutes vary from country to country, but do you know the origin of military salutes?" Xie Bo smiled and gestured for Tang Cheng to sit down and talk, and then continued, "Our Chinese military salutes originated from the Western Zhou Dynasty.
One of the West Friday rituals is a ritual used in conquests and military activities. There are many kinds of military rituals we use now. The one you just used is the daily raising of hands. The regulations stipulate that when wearing military uniforms, wearing military caps or not
Wearing a military cap, we usually perform a hand-raising salute. However, our traditional hand-raising salute should be to raise the right hand from the chest, the right arm is at the same height as the shoulder, the forearm and the palm are in a straight line, the five fingers are close together, and the palm is slightly turned outwards.
Ten degrees. When wearing a hat, the middle finger of the right hand should be placed 2 centimeters outside the brim of the hat. When saluting without a hat, the middle finger should be slightly placed against the temple."
Liu Yangyang didn't know what Xie Bo meant by talking about military salutes to Tang Chuan, but Tang Chuan was listening attentively. As Xie Bo described it, Tang Cheng couldn't help but repeat the salute action. "Yes, the arms and shoulders are the same.
High, the five fingers should be close together." Xie Bo carefully corrected Tang Cheng's movements, and also took his military hat and put it on Tang Cheng's head, and compared with Tang Cheng where the 2 centimeters outside the brim of the hat were.
"Little brother, is it fun for us here? Why don't you go back to your church and stay here with us? We will teach you more things after joining together. He graduated from Huangpu and knows a lot.
Went." Seeing that Tang Cheng was having fun, Liu Yangyang, who was sitting on the side cleaning his gun, tentatively asked. What Xie Bo is now teaching Tang Cheng, the recruits of the supplementary regiment will have to learn for several days. When they meet such a bright-minded person,
A good young man, Liu Yangyang insisted on keeping Tangcheng no matter what.
"A good man should not be a soldier, and a good man should not make nails. From the very beginning when you brought me here, I knew something was wrong." Tang Cheng pouted at Liu Yangyang, "The priest has adopted me for so many years, and I want to provide for him in his old age.
It's not impossible for those who are dying to join you as soldiers to eat food, but we have to wait until the priest goes to heaven, not now." Tang Cheng kept shaking his head, and there was a hint of warmth in his expression. To say that Tang Cheng, an orphan, is here.
If there is anything else I care about in the world, it is Father Robles in the church. Although the bearded priest has yellow hair and blue eyes, Tangcheng still treats him as a relative.
"How old is your priest?" Tang Cheng's refusal did not go beyond Liu Yangyang's expectation, but Tang Cheng said that he would wait until the priest died before considering joining the army. If the priest was an old man who was about to die, this matter would
There is still room for negotiation.
"Wait a minute, let me first calculate how old Father Robert is this year." Tang Cheng counted carefully with his fingers, and then replied, "Father Robert said he came to China years ago. The priest said he came to China.
He was already 25 years old when he was born. Adding 25 means that Father Robert is at least 45 years old this year. I think it may take many years before he can see God."
Looking at Tang Cheng winking at Xie Bo, how could Liu Yangyang not know that he was being teased by Tang Cheng, but Xie Bo was still here, and he couldn't do anything to Tang Cheng, so he could only wipe his own face desperately.
"Tang Cheng, but what Uncle Goat said is right. Since Father Robert is now in his prime, there is no need for you to talk about it."
As for the matter of retirement and retirement, why don't you join us as a soldier, contribute to the country, drive the Japanese out of China as soon as possible, and the people will be able to live a good life one day earlier." Xie Bo looked at Tangcheng quietly,
Waiting for Tangcheng's answer.
Xie Bo has a good impression of Tang Cheng, but that doesn't mean he must get Tang Cheng into the army, especially when Tang Cheng and he only have a one-time relationship. However, while wandering around the Japanese Concession during the day, Xie Bo discovered that Tang Cheng actually
He can speak Japanese and understand Japanese signs. From the fact that Tangcheng is very interested in military matters, it is not difficult to see that this boy is very yearning to serve as a soldier. It would be too wasteful for him to be buried in the bustling city. Thank you
Bo is planning to bring Tang Cheng into his company. If there is someone in his company who can speak and write Japanese, Xie Bo will naturally know what this means.
Faced with Xie Bo's gaze, Tang Cheng was a little shaken, but in the end he shook his head, "Sir Xie, I'm not being pretentious in Tang Cheng. Being a soldier is a big deal. Father Robert raised me so big. It's natural for me to go back for such a big thing.
It can only be decided after discussing with him. I can't give you an answer now." Although Tang Cheng was very interested in military matters, especially the military uniform Xie Bo hung in the headquarters and the military rank mark on the collar made Tang Cheng
Tang Cheng could hardly pull out the eyes, and there was still the shell gun in Liu Yangyang's hand, but Tang Cheng really wanted to discuss this matter with Robert, otherwise he would be too ruthless.
Xie Bo also knew that based on his one-day friendship with Tang Cheng, he would not be able to rush to join the army with just a few words to himself. Looking at Tang Cheng's clothes, he knew that this boy had no worries about food and clothing. The army was a slut.
A place where sweating and bleeding can even lead to loss of life. Although Tangcheng is much stronger than the recruits in the replenishment regiment, saluting and standing at attention alone are not enough to judge that Tangcheng is suitable to be a soldier. Besides, there is also a big problem like an American priest.
If Tang Cheng is really kept in his second company by force and waits for the American priest to come to his door, the whole 524th regiment will be in trouble.
"Okay, let's go, let's go eat first. After dinner, I'll ask someone to take you back. I'll let you eat the food in the army today. Your student friends don't have this opportunity." Xie Bo winked.
Liu Yangyang, the latter had no choice but to go out angrily to ask the cooks in the company to bring over the food. After filling up with steamed buns and vegetable soup, Tang Cheng also imitated Xie Bo and Liu Yangyang and drank the vegetable soup, and opened his mouth to Xie Bo specially.
Liu Yangyang turned a blind eye to the canned beef, which actually made Liu Yangyang secretly praise him in his heart.
