A burly general of the General Headquarters of the Fifth Theater of Operations in Laohekou, Hubei Province, woke up his guards after a night of sleep, and then the two of them took off their military uniforms, changed into the clothes of ordinary people, and walked out of the headquarters at the dawn of the day, their goal was Taihang Mountain. Ｅ『．┡

As the supreme commander of the Fifth War Zone, Li Zongren was of course aware of the little devil's recent unusual moves. As the forefront of the anti-Japanese resistance, the Fifth War Zone can threaten the control of the little devil in Wuhan at any time, and the little devil certainly does not want to have Chinese sleeping soundly on the edge of his bed.

Li Zongren, who changed into the clothes of the common people and left the command headquarters, rode his war horse all the way to the north, and when he reached the edge of his defense area, he handed over the war horse to the local troops who were stationed, of course, they also recognized the people on horseback who were doing their business as their supreme commander, but Li Zongren did not come to inspect the troops, so he did not make a noise, and his travel was only known to people in a small area. At present, the scouts of the Japanese army are rampant, and if the Japanese know that Li Zongren is changing clothes and traveling, they will inevitably block all intersections and chase and intercept him.

The destination of Li Zongren's trip was the Taihang Mountain in the north, and the Taihang Mountain was an enemy-occupied area from their defense area, and if he rode a war horse, he would inevitably attract the attention of the Japanese army, so Li Zongren only brought an ordinary guard to follow him.

Of course, Liao Fan didn't know that when he was sending Fu Hongyu back to the hospital, a first-class general was passing through the enemy-occupied area for hundreds of miles, just to meet him. Gangcun Ningci didn't expect Li Zongren to be so bold and go to Taihang Mountain alone.

The sun was rising, and the shrill sound of the wake-up whistle reached the ears of the sleeping soldiers, who were tired from the daily training, but they knew that they sweated more in peacetime and bleed less in wartime. So when the whistle was heard, each fighter got up and gathered as quickly as possible to start the busy day.

There are not many troops stationed in Liao Fan's division headquarters, and the troops that are being trained are all recruits just recruited by the logistics department, and after the training of these recruits is completed, they will be divided into various units according to the results of the training, and of course the logistics department must also leave a part. Although the four regiments can recruit new recruits on their own, the soldiers recruited by the logistics department are only to prevent special incidents, and in case one of the four regiments has too many casualties and it is difficult to recruit soldiers, the recruits trained by the logistics department will come in handy.

An hour after getting up, the soldiers had to run and drill, and then have breakfast, and before Liao Fan returned to the headquarters, a loud slogan was remembered on the training ground. The instructors of these recruits are all veterans who came down from the battlefield, they were seriously injured on the field, and there is no way to return to the army, but the troops can't ignore them, according to the principle that the army does not raise idlers, Liao Fan has to use them to train soldiers, as long as they can walk and talk, these veterans can train recruits is more than enough.

Of course, these veterans are also aware of the difficulties of the troops, who are only able to receive one-third of their original salaries, except for their three meals a day and basic living expenses. Liao Fan also didn't want to watch the veterans who lost part of their bodies to protect Taihang Mountain do nothing, which can be regarded as a profession.

Liao Fan stood on the training ground and watched the soldiers run past him, the army has rules that soldiers who are training and performing tasks do not need to salute their superior officers. Liao Fan is just full of food and comes out for a walk, after all, he has no clue in the command headquarters.

As the sun gradually baked the earth, the temperature began to become hot, and twenty-one war horses roared past, causing the soldiers who were about to go to dinner to stop. These twenty-one war horses are Chu Pengtian's spy squad, he went to inspect the troops in place of Liao Fan, and he just came back today.

Seeing that Liao Fan was on the training ground, Chu Pengtian rode a war horse and came over directly.

"Go and return all the horses." Chu Pengtian, who jumped off the war horse, commanded the warriors behind him.

"The squad leader of Chu University is more majestic than me, the head of the first division." Liao Fan looked at Chu Pengtian's equipment, and he didn't know where he got it from, even the very rare horse whips of the 33rd Independent Division looked like high-end goods, and Liao Fan had never seen them.

"Hehe, don't I rely on Brother Fan, if I don't have Brother Fan, where would I get my majesty, and now I'm not a Jiangyang thief outside." Chu Pengtian's spy squad rode a war horse instead of Liao Fan to inspect the troops, of course, it was not majestic, and it also made Chu Pengtian addicted. Although he slept outside for a few days, it was still good overall, and Chu Pengtian liked this feeling.

As for the horse whip in his hand, it was given to him by Li Weimin, when he went to the second regiment, because Li Weimin still had nearly 600 war horses in his hands, so the second regiment was recently forming a cavalry battalion, when Chu Pengtian replaced Liao Fan to inspect the cavalry battalion, he saw the majestic cavalry on the training ground, of course, he took the opportunity to blackmail Li Weimin and asked for a complete set of horse harness.

"Don't be complacent, this time you are not going to inspect the troops, but to let you see with your eyes and learn with your heart, you tell me what you learned this time." Liao Fan began to walk towards the headquarters, followed by Chu Pengtian.

"That ......" Chu Pengtian followed behind Liao Fan, where would he have thought that this time he would go out to study, and he only knew how to show off his majesty and show off the mount of their spy class.

Chu Pengtian followed behind Liao Fan, thinking about what he had seen and heard in various units during this period of time: "Actually, there is nothing special, each battalion commander has a method for each battalion commander to lead the troops, but the training of the soldiers of our independent 33rd Division is really hard, but of course it is still not as good as our special squad." ”

Liao Fan lowered his head and kept walking forward: "What else?" ”

"What else?" Chu Pengtian couldn't think of anything else to gain, he was training every day at the station some time ago, and he was supervised by Liao Fan, so he finally had such a chance to go out, without Liao Fan's constraints, Chu Pengtian of course wanted to relax and look at the scenery of Taihang Mountain.

"I didn't learn anything from you on a trip, except for playing prestige, it was to put gold on the face of the spy squad, it seems that you can only be a squad leader, I originally wanted to increase the spie squad by fifty people." Liao Fan said unintentionally that he didn't have much hope for Chu Pengtian on this trip.

However, Liao Fan's unintentional remarks were shocking to Chu Pengtian, it turned out that Liao Fan gave him the opportunity to go out to inspect this time, which was an opportunity for promotion. Chu Pengtian is an official fan, of course, most of this comes from wanting to take revenge on Lu Liming. But seeing that this opportunity for promotion was ruined.

Chu Pengtian's regretful intestines were already green at this time, but what could he do, he only remembered where the scenery was good on the way, and as for the things in the army, he did go to see it, but for him, a person who doesn't know much about military affairs, he can see what he can see about how to train the troops and how to lead the troops. As the saying goes, insiders look at the doorway, laymen look at the excitement, Chu Pengtian is an out-and-out layman, for the training of the troops, he has only led twenty people, and his command ability is even more than ten tricks through nine tricks, and there is still one thing left that he doesn't understand.

Liao Fan gradually walked away, Chu Pengtian also woke up from his stunned state, and hurriedly trotted all the way to catch up with Liao Fan, who had already arrived at the gate of the headquarters, and then pretended to be pitiful as much as possible.

"Brother Fan, is it true that you just said that I should bring fifty people?"

As if he hadn't heard Chu Pengtian's words, Liao Fan strode into the headquarters, then sat down at his desk and flipped through the map in front of him.

Chu Pengtian was on the other side of the desk and looked at Liao Fan directly: "Brother Fan, let's discuss this matter again." ”

At this time, Liao Fan finally raised his head and glanced at Chu Pengtian: "What are you discussing?" Let an unlearned guy lead the troops to fight the little devils, I dislike the short lives of the brothers, and throw them to the little devils! ”

In the face of the criticism in Liao Fan's words, Chu Pengtian did not flinch in the slightest. His face is as thick as the city wall, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to kill Jiang Yang's thieves before.

"Brother Fan, I will study hard in the future, and if I go up every day, you will hand over the soldiers to me."

"Chu Pengtian, let me tell you, there are never idlers in the army, if you continue like this, you are ready to prepare, roll up the bed and roll back to continue your old job, without you in the army, the War of Resistance against Japan will not be postponed for a few years, the 33rd Independent Division will not hand over the soldiers to a commander who can only show off his might, if I hand over the soldiers to you, it will be tantamount to killing them." Liao Fan's face became serious, and he stared at Chu Pengtian deadly.

Chu Pengtian was covered with goosebumps when Liao Fan saw it, and he knew that Liao Fan was angry. Chu Pengtian was as timid as a primary school student, standing timidly in front of Liao Fan's desk, waiting for Liao Fan's criticism with his head and face.

But things didn't go as Chu Pengtian thought, Liao Fan was just looking at the map seriously. Chu Pengtian finally understood that he was completely finished, and he had a lot of fun during this inspection, and he also played with Liao Fan's trust in him.

Standing in front of the desk for a while, Chu Pengtian watched Liao Fan put all his thoughts on the map, and he had no choice but to walk out of the headquarters silently.

Chu Pengtian, who was standing at the door of the headquarters, was no longer so blue, the clouds were no longer so white, the leaves were no longer so green, and his life had lost all its brilliance and had become dim. It's a pity that his military career has just begun, is this the end of it? Do you really want to go back to being a Jiangyang thief and live a lifetime by stealing? But from the bottom of his heart, Chu Pengtian really likes the stable life of Taihang Mountain.

Chu Pengtian didn't know how to walk back to his dormitory, he sat on the bed in a daze, and the soldiers of his special service squad asked him if he had a training mission today, but he didn't answer. Seeing that their squad leader was like losing his soul, they couldn't bother Chu Pengtian, so they had to wait for Chu Pengtian's order outside.

"Lao Lu arranged for a warrior to keep an eye on Chu Pengtian, I want to see what he does next!" Liao Fan's face was serious, and he told Lu Liming.
