Hao Ping couldn't sleep. He guessed that the reason why Hu Yi didn't want to cooperate with him was because of the unpleasantness in Xinglong Town. Of course, he also knew that the strategies given by Su Qing at that time were all instructed by Hu Yi. The reason why the third company was not surrounded and annihilated by the Japanese was that Hu Yi used a heavy machine gun to hold a hole for the third company. But the more this happened, the more unwilling he felt, but he didn't know why he was unwilling. Tianlai Novels. 』23txt. com
I always think that Gao Yidao and Hu Yi have the worst relationship, and the whole regiment recognizes it. But what Hao Ping can't understand is that if the Second Company and the Ninth Company are just chickens and duck blood, why do they always get mixed up? Including this time, they ganged up again to commit crimes. The Ninth Company asked the Second Company to help fight Li Yong, and took the initiative to go to Hu Yi to join the gang but was not accepted. Is it because of Yang Deshi's attitude? But isn't Gao Yidao's attitude worse every time he sees Hu Yi
I couldn't figure it out, but I made up my mind to get involved no matter what. At this moment, I suddenly realized that I didn't know the 9th Company at all. It was a brother unit in the same regiment, but I felt like a stranger who had been working together for a long time.
"Third Platoon Leader!"
A figure stood up hurriedly not far away, staggering for several seconds before coming out of his daze. He recognized the company commander's voice and came closer to answer, "Yes."
"Take your platoon and go to Company 9."
"ah?"
"You will follow the entire battle of the Ninth Company this time and be under the command of the Ninth Company Commander. You must follow whether he wants you to or not. Also... be careful, watch more, listen more, and come back to give me a summary."
Pan Zhuzi was not sent because Hao Ping knew that Pan Zhuzi was arrogant and afraid of bad things happening; Yang Deshi was not consulted because Yang Deshi said he was going to be transferred. Hao Ping guessed... he saw that the third company had no hope of being promoted to battalion commander, so he would rather share the joys than the sorrows!
The third company commander is still the third company commander, but the third company instructor is not the third company instructor.
…
At midnight, Ma Liang's advance reconnaissance intelligence was transmitted back to Dabeizhuang: the nearest contact with the enemy was twenty miles west of Xinghua Village, the troop strength and movement were unknown; in addition: the messenger had arrived.
Hu Yi immediately ordered the Ninth Company to end its rest and leave Dabeizhuang and march westward.
Before dawn, the 9th Company arrived at Xinghua Village. Xinghua Village had obviously been looted, and was empty except for passing rats, but it had not been burned down. It should be that the Japanese wanted to camp here once before returning, and they did it before retreating.
Ma Liang sent back reconnaissance intelligence for the second time when it reached Xinghua Village: the enemy showed signs of gathering, and their movements could be confirmed after daybreak.
Hu Yi ordered the 9th Company to stay in Xinghua Village and wait for the next intelligence gathering. At the same time, he sent someone to find a corpse in good condition, put it in a set of puppet army uniforms, put the second letter forged by Su Qing in the pocket of the corpse, and placed the corpse in a conspicuous place in Xinghua Village.
The third platoon leader of the third company led more than 30 soldiers under his command and followed Hao Ping to the ninth company. If the time of reinforcing the wine station is counted, this is the second time that the third company and the ninth company are in the same pit. People say that the nine sons of the dragon are all different. Even if the soldiers of the four companies of the independent regiment stand together, they can tell which company they belong to.
The soldiers of the third company of this platoon are quite different from those of the ninth company. The uniforms of the ninth company are homemade, the fabric is relatively new and the color is darker; the uniforms of the third company are mostly from supplies, the fabric is older and the color is lighter; the ninth company wears Shui Zhao Wu military shoes, while the third company wears black cloth shoes; the ninth company has Hu Yi, a leader who emphasizes uniformity, and there are many soldiers who like to show off. In addition, the women of Jiuzhan Village love to make blue and white armbands, and both "Eighth Route Army" armbands and "18ga" armbands are available, and soldiers can choose according to their preferences; the third company The company armbands are incomplete, but the number of patches is considerable; the Ninth Company takes the company commander as the fashion, and no matter whether it is the platoon leader or the squad leader, as long as they are not special soldiers, they all like to carry long rifles, and they all regard getting a Japanese military long raincoat as the coolest goal; the Third Company takes the instructor as an idol, and since he is a cadre, he only carries a pistol. It is a pity that not everyone can wear glasses, and not everyone can use a fountain pen; as for equipment and weapons and ammunition, it is better not to say. After all, some soldiers in the Ninth Company no longer regard the steel helmets as a burden, and they are worried about how to grind off the annoying yellow star.
Frugality is a virtue, but it has nothing to do with combat effectiveness. When standing with the Ninth Company, the soldiers of the Third Company could only look down on the Ninth Company with a frugal mentality, but those bastards of the Ninth Company still looked down on them coldly, like passers-by.
The third platoon leader of the third company did not understand why the company commander insisted on sending him to the ninth company. This assignment was simply a torture. In order not to lose morale, he could only focus on details, such as standing in line with chests high, but the ninth company was still whispering to each other; he emphasized the pace on the march, but the ninth company was as lax as ever; he feared this most, that the other side did not fight with him, but made his soldiers more restrained. Finally, he remembered that a general leads like his soldiers. Although the ninth company commander was known as a fierce star, he was different from Gao Yidao. There was a difference between coldness and arrogance.
The platoon leader of the third company, who realized it belatedly, was sweating with worry and finally decided to put down his airs and sit for a while against the wall. However, the commander of the ninth company, who was walking with a cold wind, came up to him.
"Are you sure you want to join the battle?"
The third platoon leader felt nervous for some reason and nodded subconsciously: "Yes. Confirmed."
"Are you not afraid that I will use you as cannon fodder?"
Unexpectedly, the ninth company commander spoke so directly. He was quite unaccustomed to it. The third platoon leader stood up straight and answered seriously, "No, I'm not afraid. Because... when Xinglong Town broke out, I was there alone. At that time... weren't you also cannon fodder?"
The captain of the ninth company did not seem to have any change in expression. His eyes were still dark under his curly hat brim, but he paused for a few seconds before continuing: "In that case... I will divide your people into two, half of them will be temporarily assigned to my first platoon, and the other half will be assigned to my second platoon. As for you... go to the third platoon."
…
The brighter the morning glow, the more the sun will jump out of the eastern mountain. At the westernmost end of Xinghua Village, under a low horizontal earth wall, there are more than ten people sitting or leaning. The third platoon of the ninth company are all huddled under the wall, waiting to bask in the morning sun.
A bear was sitting at the foot of the wall, leaning lazily against a broken basket, with a newly maintained Czech light machine gun erected beside him. He twitched his eyebrows and asked, "What's your name?"
"The King's Treasury."
"My grandma... How poor are your parents?"
Wang Baoku was the new platoon leader of the third company. He sweated more when facing this rude bear than when facing the captain of the ninth company. He thought to himself, how much better are you than me
The bear curled his lips and said, "Since you are also a platoon leader, then I will let you be the platoon leader?"
This was considered a show of force. Wang Baoku's face turned red with displeasure: "I... am not here to be a platoon leader."
"Oh. That makes me feel relieved." The bear rolled his eyes and said, "You have a lot of platoon leaders in the third company, but don't feel wronged. Ah, who is the number one platoon leader in our entire regiment? Do you know? Tell me."
Wang Baoku thought, what kind of question is this? Considering the heavy responsibility on his shoulders, he had to endure no matter how unpleasant it was, and answer no matter how boring the question was: "It should be... Guard Platoon Leader, Xiao Bing."
"You're so blind!" Xiong was unhappy: "What can you see with your eyes? And Xiao Bing, he's not as good as Tiedan and Ma Liang! Let me ask you again, if the situation is reversed, who is the worst platoon leader in our entire regiment?"
Revenge! This question is definitely revenge! Wang Baoku thought, are you asking me to scold Sanlian myself? Scold myself? If I don’t talk about Sanlian, who should I talk about? Who offended whom? I won’t answer this question even if you beat me to death! Silence!
"Mule, I think you're almost there!" Little Hongying on the other side of the wall suddenly stretched and said, "You're stupid too! You can't even answer such a simple question? Who are you showing off to? Can't you ask back?" Then she turned to the bear and said, "Well... Okay, tell me your answer now. Who is it? I'm curious too."
The smug bear raised his face and said, "Tian Sanqi!"
Xiao Hongying suddenly flashed a strange and sinister smile: "I told you that you would be there soon!"
Then the bear was suddenly kicked hard on the back. The familiar force and touch made the bear feel ecstatic and fall down on the spot.
Hu Yi's voice then rang out: "Ma Liang's message has arrived. The Japanese are retreating eastwards. The first squadron will arrive soon, and the main force is not far behind. Prepare to fight."
Wang Baoku was panicked when he heard this. Are they going to start fighting here? Isn't it just to attract? Seeing that the guys nearby had already found their own fighting positions, he had to swallow the question that was about to come out of his mouth; he thought to himself that it was probably a row of guns retreating, so why did they have to fight at the top of Xicun
Seeing the bear crawling up with bared teeth, Wang Baoku suddenly realized that the bear didn't seem to be targeting him. The people of the Ninth Company were actually not polite to each other. The people of the Ninth Company... were very strange!
