Not far from the defense line of Wu Qi's 17th Army, in the garrison of the 36th Army of the Kuomintang, which participated in the task of encircling and suppressing the New Fourth Army, telegraphs rang incessantly, and there was a hectic scene everywhere.

Within a circle of the headquarters of the 36th Army, there were officers and soldiers who hurriedly walked with their heads bowed. They didn't even have time to say a word to each other, and they quickly went to do their own jobs.

"What? You repeat? What did Wu Qi do? In the headquarters of the 36th Army, Kong Sen, the commander of the 36th Army, who was deploying troops to surround the independent brigade from the flank, raised his head sharply and looked at the adjutant who came to report in disbelief.

"Command, I just received news that the 17th Army and the Separate Brigade have ceased fire. Gao Dong, the captain of the Independent Brigade, only brought less than a hundred people to the front of the 17th Army, but not a single person from the 17th Army opened fire. Wu Qi and Wang Wei had already rushed to the front of the position and secretly conspired with Gao Dong about something. The adjutant had the face of a villain and reported in a deep voice.

"It's just so presumptuous!" Kong Sen slapped the table angrily, and the officers gathered around the table immediately stood up straight.

"Wu Qi, Wang Wei, I have long regarded these two bastards as red bandits. At the moment of the great enemy, not to mention destroying the other party, but still fornicating with the enemy in front of the battle! Daring, bold! Kong Sen walked back and forth irritably.

Although Kong Sen was not a descendant of Chiang Kai-shek, he was also born in the Baoding Military Academy and belonged to the old Kuomintang-Party officers. He was bent on getting closer to the Central Army, and he was also very ideologically rejecting communism.

This time, he was ordered to come to encircle and suppress the New Fourth Army, and he was ready to be an executioner and a vanguard. After careful deployment, he was ready to encircle the main force of the independent brigade from the flank, and with nearly 40,000 troops under his command, this battle could be a miracle. He believed that if he could eliminate the Independent Brigade, even if it was just to consume their living force, he would become famous in an instant.

"Throne, what now? Do you want to be convicted of collaborating with the enemy......" said the adjutant treacherously.

"No!" Kong Sen, who calmed down, waved his hand: "Wu Qi and Wang Wei's army has followed them for many years, if we appear rashly at this time, we will definitely not be able to get benefits, and maybe we will provoke a mutiny!" ”

"Then just watch them go and talk to Gao Dong alone?" The adjutant continued to encourage Kong Sen: "Military seat, if there is no 17th Army, we will definitely be alone." The name of the independent brigade is so big, and its strength will definitely not be weak. I'm afraid that when the time comes, we will not annihilate their capital, but will be bitten back. Your big plan ......"

"That's it!" Kong Sen's face changed slightly, and the adjutant's words hit him by seven inches. This time, he is imperative, he must make great contributions here, and he must not fall short because of a sudden flaw.

"Immediately notify the artillerymen, turn the muzzles, and give me aim where they are now. Listen to my orders, and if they make any moves, fire immediately! Kong Sen said gloomily, his eyes full of murderous intent.

"Yes!" The adjutant turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait!" Kong Sen's face showed hesitation, and he was silent for a moment and said: "You must not be so hasty, you can take the troops with me to see what they are talking about!" After all, Wu Qi is the commander of the army, and Wang Wei is also a powerful figure in the Sichuan army. If I bombard these two people without any evidence, I'm afraid I'll go back in the future, and I won't be able to explain it to the above. ”

The adjutant wanted to say something, but Kong Sen had already made up his mind, and shouted loudly: "Prepare the car immediately, follow me to the front line to have a look, and see what they are talking about!" ”

In front of the position of the 17th Army, Gao Dong looked calm, and he was not afraid of Rulin's gun. In the cold wind, he stood proudly in the white snow, as if the scene of going to the meeting alone was repeated after a thousand years.

The 17th Army's position was silent, and the soldiers were all shocked by Gao Dong's courage. Those soldiers who knew Gao Dong even stood up straight to express their reverence for Gao Dong.

"Captain, we've been standing for so long, but there's no reaction from the other side. You treat them as friends, but they don't necessarily think of us as brothers. Now that you've figured it out, it's still too late to go! Lin Fan reminded in a whisper behind Gao Dong.

He didn't believe that there were so many friendships, and an intuitive and calm special forces should not have any feelings, which was also what Gao Dong taught him when he entered the Heavenly Wolf. It is necessary to crush the enemy ruthlessly with thunderous means and not give the enemy any chance to turn over, which is the real special forces.

But the person who taught him all this now showed a side in front of him that special forces should not have, and actually ventured to the front of the enemy's position, which Lin Fan couldn't accept anyway.

But Gao Dong didn't speak, and there was always a confident smile on the corner of his mouth. After coming to this era, the bloody war and the friendship between the wars taught him many things, and it was a thing that was lost in his time.

This kind of thing is called trust, and it is a common thing that can only be possessed in this era. They exist in those whose countries are ruined, they exist in those who are iron-blooded soldiers, and they exist in those who have the ambition to serve the country.

Gao Dong believes that this kind of thing also exists in Wu Qi and Wang Wei. On the bank of the Huai River, in the dilapidated city walls of the fortified city. The kind of fearless spirit of defending the country and spilling blood is definitely not pretended, Wu Qi and Wang Wei are not even afraid of death, are they still afraid to see him, an old man? Gao Dong believes that they will definitely come.

At this moment, the positions of the 17th Army suddenly split a passage. Wu Qi and Wang Wei hurriedly walked towards Gao Dong with a guard of less than ten people, and the speed of the two of them was very fast, almost trotting.

"How? Sometimes, believing in a friend from the past is the same as believing in yourself! Gao Dong turned his head slightly and smiled faintly at Lin Fan.

Lin Fan rolled his eyes at him: "Even if they come, can you still make them retreat and give up this mission?" Anyway, I don't believe it! ”

"Things are man-made, and sometimes, it's things that you don't believe in, done by people you don't trust. All they need is a reason to get it done. Gao Dong stopped talking nonsense and quietly waited for the arrival of Wu Qi and Wang Wei.

Five meters apart, Wu Qi and Wang Wei stood in unison. I haven't seen each other for many years, but when we meet again, they are on the battlefield, and both of them have received Gao Dong's life-saving grace, and they can't help but smile awkwardly at this time.

"The two old brothers are not harmed, and their demeanor is better than before! It seems that what I said at the beginning has really come true, but I didn't expect to meet again, and we have become enemies. Gao Dong didn't have the slightest fluctuation in his expression, and looked at the two calmly.

Wang Wei's face turned red, and he hurriedly waved his hand: "Brother Gao, I will remember what Wang Wei said for the rest of my life." Rest assured, we will never be enemies! ”

"Yes, Brother Gao, although we have different positions and different belongings. But you will always be my brother. I, Wu Qi, am still a man who stands up to the sky, and I will never do anything unkind or unjust. Wu Qi also immediately expressed his position.

Gao Dong sneered, pointed to the position behind them, and said, "Your tens of thousands of troops are silently marching into our defense area, and you are also encircling and suppressing our main force. And according to my intelligence, you have set up a net of heaven and earth, aren't you just waiting for me to cast a net from me? ”

Wang Wei and Wu Qi's old faces turned even redder, and they couldn't deny the fact that Gao Dong said. Around Jing County, there is indeed a net waiting for the arrival of the independent brigade. And among the precise orders they received when they came, there was also a clause to eliminate the independent brigade.

Wang Wei stomped his foot violently and shouted, "-! The turtle's son, Lao Tzu said that he would not come, but he had to give an order to let Lao Tzu come. ”

Wu Qi looked at Gao Dong helplessly, sighed and said, "Brother Gao, you also know that we are under orders. We are all soldiers, and the duty of a soldier is to obey orders, and so are we..."

"So you're going to lead tens of thousands of troops to slaughter your own people?" Gao Dong suddenly spoke violently, and the hundreds of Heavenly Wolf members behind him took a step forward in unison, the ferocious momentum was like a flood about to burst the embankment, and the murderous aura exploded like a cannonball, so frightened that the guards who followed Wu Qi and Wang Wei retreated several steps in a row.

"Kill your own compatriots, they are all predators who fight side by side with you and fight against Japan on the land of our motherland!" Gao Dong's roar was full of grief and indignation: "Just for the sake of your leader's own interests, are you going to fight for the tiger?" We're playing here in full swing, who is watching the joke? Aren't you a little devil yet? ”

"You are all my respected eldest brother, by the Huai River, in Gucheng, where did your blood go? You weren't like this at the beginning, in order to protect my rivers and mountains, you didn't even want your life, why now you can't even tell the simplest right from wrong? Gao Dong pointed to the mountains and forests not far behind him hatefully: "You go and see, how many anti-Japanese fighters died in that mountain forest, they originally wanted to drive away the little devils and see the day when our motherland is prosperous." But what now? Not to mention that they can't see the day coming, they can't even die in a dignified way on the battlefield of resistance against Japan. What will posterity say about them? It would be said that they are just a bunch of scapegoats who died under the interests of profit, and we, all of us, are sinners! ”

"The Chinese do not fight the Chinese! We Chinese are just because we are like a plate of scattered sand, and we have not been united for many years, so we will bully the little Japan in the land of projectiles! ”

"But as long as we can have a little backbone and hold together and guard one heart, will the few widows dare to face up to my Chinese land? They can only kneel on the ground forever and look at us with a posture of looking up! ”

Gao Dong was so angry that he almost pointed at the noses of the two and scolded. Wu Qi and Wang Wei were speechless when they were scolded, and their old faces were red!

"Brother Gao, don't say anything, I, Wang Wei, won't fight, I'll ........."

At this moment, the sound of sharp brakes in the distance was suddenly heard. Everyone's woodpipes involuntarily turned around, and they saw three military vehicles speeding towards this place at a rapid pace.
