Unlike Wu Yan's First Company and Gao Yidao's Second Company, they are not from the same regiment after all. Although the Ninth Platoon is only a platoon-level unit, Captain Wang and his men still seemed very restrained after entering the wine station, not to mention that they had had awkward interactions with the Ninth Squad in the past.

They sat in the shade under the trees, still maintaining their formation. No one was making any loud noise. They just watched quietly as the people in the ninth row were swimming and playing in the river, or busy building houses. The soldiers on patrol duty were all equipped with both long and short rifles, and had bayonets. Their bullet belts were bulging, and you could tell they were filled with real bullets, not just grass or wooden sticks for show.

Some soldiers lowered their heads, looked at their bullet belts, and quietly tightened the ropes to avoid the stuffing inside from showing. If it was compared in terms of the number of soldiers, the independent regiment was far behind. It was precisely because their regiment had more people and more soldiers that they had fewer guns and even fewer bullets, and they dared not even think about the Type 38 rifles with bayonets. However, most of the 18 or 19 people in the ninth row in front of them were wearing Type 38 rifles, which made Captain Wang, who was already restrained, even more reluctant to talk. They just licked their lips quietly in the heat.

The commander, Hu Yi, was not at home, and the four deputy commanders, Ma Liang, Liu Jianqiang, Shi Cheng and Luo Fugui, were in charge. Liu Jianqiang was not good at receiving friendly troops, he could only stand there like a wooden man, and wherever he stood, he looked like a sentry; Shi Cheng was also useless, he could only give the other party a sincere smile, and then he didn't know what to say; Luo Fugui didn't show up at all, and slept in the bunker under the pretext of being on duty, and the bunker would hold up the sky if it fell.

The only one who can come on stage is Ma Liang, but there is a problem. Ma Liang is just a squad leader, and he is a company commander. There is a big difference in rank. This is different from Gao Yidao or Wu Yan, and he can't say anything casually.

"I'm going to organize the training." Liu Jianqiang said this to someone unknown, then turned around and left.

"Uh... I'll go check out the work on the construction site." Shi Cheng scratched his head and walked in another direction with an embarrassed look on his face.

Ma Liang was so angry. Even if I was accompanying Captain Wang, someone should have gone to take care of the soldiers he brought with him, right? Do I know how to clone myself? They are all careless!

Xiao Hongying suddenly spoke up: "Captain Wang, come on, I'll take you to our platoon leader's room. He has a map that he seized from the Japanese!"

"Oh? Haha, I have to take a look at this." Although he heard that Platoon Leader Hu Yi was not there, Captain Wang's embarrassment was not relieved much. It was a rare opportunity for him to have something to say, so of course he was happy to take over the conversation.

Ma Liang finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although the girl was a soldier, she was young, so she was not restricted by rank. It was a natural advantage. He just didn't expect her to take the initiative to talk to Captain Wang. So Ma Liang turned to the dozen soldiers Captain Wang brought with him and said to them, "It's rare to come to the river. It's a pity not to go into the water to cool off. Let's go to the beach." Then he shouted to the other side, "Li Xiang, tell the third squad to go to the west bank to catch fish, and tell Sister Sun to make more dinner and stew fish soup!"

Xiao Hongying enthusiastically led Captain Wang to sit beside Hu Yi's bed, took out Hu Yi's map and spread it on the bed for Captain Wang to look at, then busied herself pouring water and placing it on the broken wooden table in the room. Finally, she brought a wooden stool to the table, sat down on it, and continued talking.

"Hey, Captain Wang, what's your name?"

Just as Ma Liang thought, no matter how the little girl acted in front of Captain Wang, it was fine. Captain Wang smiled, and it was not a polite smile, but a heartfelt smile. Facing this little girl, he suddenly didn't feel like a captain, or even a soldier: "Wang Peng, a friend's friend."

"My name is Chang Hongying."

"I've heard of your name, the most special warrior of the Independent Regiment."

"Hehe, everyone thinks I'm too young, they look down on me because I'm a girl, they always make fun of me, how can I not be famous?"

Captain Wang couldn't help laughing again: "If I were in your regiment, I wouldn't want you to join the army either."

"No matter who you are, I don't want to hear it! Hey, Captain Wang, can I call you Wang Peng? It's too troublesome to call you Captain Wang!" Her beautiful big eyes blinked clearly, and people didn't feel that she was being flattering at all.

"OK."

Company-level cadres are always the same level as Xiao Hongying in her eyes. Captain Wang had no idea that this naughty kid had this problem. However, being able to call her by her name directly made him feel like a friend, especially when being called directly by this little girl, which made Captain Wang very happy. At the same time, this also made Captain Wang realize that Xiao Hongying was indeed different, because she chose to call her by her name directly, instead of calling her brother like other people of the same age, which was very interesting.

As the two chatted, they gradually discovered that although the little girl looked proud, she was not arrogant. Her pride was not the floating clouds in the sky, but the red flowers blooming in the soil; her pride was not because of the bright color, but came from the blooming of life.

“… I’ve seen your captain before. He’s an alcoholic, but he has a good temper. He’s much better than my captain, who only knows how to bully people by showing off his power!” When Xiao Hongying mentioned Captain Lu, a look of disappointment appeared on her face.

"..." Captain Wang was speechless. How dare you talk about the leader's affairs? But I didn't dare to respond!

"Oh, by the way, when you leave, I'll get you a jar of wine. You can take it back to your regiment commander. Maybe he'll get drunk and be so happy that he'll promote you to battalion commander!"

"… "

"Hey, but you can't say you took it from me. Just say you seized it."

"Why is that?" Captain Wang was almost confused by the chattering little girl.

"We are not from the same group, so I'm afraid you will know this. When we were fighting in Sanjia Market, I secretly withheld the wine. If your group leader meets my group leader in the future and he mentions that you gave him the wine from me, I will be criticized to death by our group leader! Do you understand now?"

“Uh… um… I see. I see.” Captain Wang gave a helpless smile.

"… Fox doesn't like too many bullets, so the bullets used by our ninth platoon are mainly rifle bullets for Type 38 rifles and Czech machine guns. We don't keep those guns that are not universal. We do have some bullets accumulated. I see that some of the guns your people brought can be used. I will secretly bring some for you when you leave."

"..." Captain Wang was speechless again. Is this possible? How powerful is this little girl? This friend... I have nothing to say.

The little girl didn't pay attention to Captain Wang's expression. She looked at the beam with her eyes wide open and pondered for a while. Then she continued to say to Captain Wang, "I'll give you 500 rounds. I'll have someone count them out later."

Cough—cough cough, Company Commander Wang, who had just picked up the cup of water, choked.

At this time, Xiao Ya sighed deeply: "Alas - actually there is nothing we can do. You can see that we are only a dozen people. It's not that we have many guns and bullets, but there are too few people. This is really poor! Staying in this uninhabited place, let alone fighting, it's hard to patrol. We can't do anything."

Captain Wang finally recovered and looked at the little girl, thinking there seemed to be something else going on.

A pair of beautiful big eyes blinked, and suddenly a flash came: "How many people are there in your team now?"

"One hundred and fifty-two." Captain Wang answered, staring blankly at those beautiful big eyes, sensing a turning point.

"Can you give us a class?" The gaze began to become clear and innocent.

Bang! Captain Wang didn't hold the broken teacup tightly in his hand, and it dropped to the ground accidentally, spilling half the teacup of cold boiled water.

"Hmm? Hello? What's wrong? Say something?" The shameless little girl raised one hand and gestured in front of Captain Wang's dull eyes.

"What... did I say?"

"Give us a class, okay?"

"Can you give this to me? This? Can you give it to me?" Captain Wang's expression was as dumb as it could be.

"Why not? Just say that we are here to support our friendly forces, and temporarily loan a squad to help us. After we overcome the difficulties, we can let them go back. Um, oh... Yes, yes, I said it wrong. It's not giving, it's borrowing, it's borrowing, lending us a squad. There must be no problem with that, right?"

Captain Wang, with a frown on his face, was thinking: Some of the rumors are true, but now I finally realize that other rumors are also true. All the rumors about her are true.

Outside the east gate of Meixian County, the Lin family hall.

Lin Xiu grabbed the gift boxes on the table and threw them towards the yard. One by one, they were thrown out from the open door of the hall and fell all over the floor with a crackling sound.

Shopkeeper Lin, who was sitting in the main seat, slammed the table and said, "That's enough! Can you please save your energy and stop going crazy?"

"I would rather die than be his second wife!" Lin Xiu said angrily.

"He is an official, and I am a businessman. Is this something you are willing to do or not? We can't afford to offend him, do you understand?"

"What kind of official is he? He's just a traitor, a dog, and a scum!" Lin Xiu rushed into the yard angrily and stomped on the things she threw out.

"Shut up! I shouldn't have sent you to some girls' school in the provincial capital. You learned nothing but nonsense." Shopkeeper Lin was so angry at his daughter's throwing a tantrum that his face turned red. He stood up angrily and shouted at the housekeeper, "From today on, she is not allowed to go out again." Then he left the hall, no longer paying attention to his daughter who was still going crazy in the yard, and prepared the car to go out the gate into the city.

Li Youcai came to the gate of Lin's family for the second time. He felt so angry when he thought of the last behavior. He secretly swore that he would be decisive this time and he would definitely convince others with his intimidation!

He brushed off his trousers, shook his collar, and deliberately hung the box gun on his back in front of him. He adjusted his greasy hair that looked like a traitor's hair was licked by a dog, stood with his legs apart, his hands on his hips, and looked very unhappy. He shouted at the door with full energy: "The plainclothes team is investigating the case. Open the door for me!"

Soon, a crack appeared in the door and the person inside stuck his head out. Oh, it was this person again. Last time, he was bitten to pieces by a dog, and this time, he was licked to pieces by a dog.

"What the hell are you looking at! Open the door, I'm investigating a case!" Li Youcai walked towards the steps of the gate.

The gatekeeper wanted to close the door, but he didn't dare to, so he turned around and ran into the yard: "Miss, he's here again."

"Who's here?" Lin Xiu, who was gasping for breath in the yard, asked the question when he saw the door being pushed open and a typical traitor walking in with a majestic look.

The moment he saw the beautiful figure in the courtyard, Li Youcai's determination at the gate immediately vanished. He originally wanted to rush into the hall, but ended up stopping at the gate. His unhappy expression unconsciously turned into an awkward and unnatural one.

"Ahem, Lin Xiu, do you know that I am..."

"Traitor dog!"

"Well... I'm telling you, if you don't explain it clearly today, don't blame me..."

"roll!"

"Oh, you are so rebellious, believe it or not..."

There was a sound of breaking wind, and something crushed by something flew towards him. Li Youcai was so frightened that he bent down in panic, and with a snap, something on the door was smashed.

When she looked up in panic, the second object had arrived. Lin Xiu's skirt fluttered, and her beautiful long braids danced angrily. She was picking up everything she could pick up and throwing everything she could throw, turning her grief and anger into fighting the traitors!

One dodged, two missed, three blocked it, and the fourth finally hit the traitor, followed by the fifth, the sixth, and finally even a brick flew over.

The unlucky Li Youcai was finally beaten like a dog...
