Chapter 9: See also the garrison

Dragging a long stretch of yellow dust, the truck drove on the dirt road, and the undulating dirt road made Tang Cheng and Jiujin in the cab suffer a serious crime, especially the injuries on Tang Cheng's chest began to worsen more and more. Tang Cheng, who was speeding along the dirt road, didn't know what this place was, but he planned to stay here for a day and find a doctor to check his injuries.

There were wooden horses at the city gate, and the two guys with rifles may have seen the appearance of the truck, and they hurriedly ran back to the city, and Tang Cheng also saw a few muzzles exposed from the city through the telescope, which was completely the reaction of the enemy coming. "You guys are just waiting here, watch our truck, sunspots and rocks come with me." Tang Cheng looked at the city again with his online banking card, and said to Jiujin and the others, "There are woods here, which is conducive to concealment, and if you go further, it will be bare, and there is not even a hiding place." ”

"Then you have to be careful." Jiujin reminded Tang Cheng with some worry, but it attracted the angry eyes of Heizi and Liu Shishi, and the feelings of Jiujin were only worried about Tang Cheng alone, and the two of them were not in Jiujin's consideration at all. Jiujin's worries are not unnecessary, just yesterday, they met a national army unit in the middle of the road, and the commander of the team was only a company commander, so they wanted to detain Tang Cheng and the truck, if Tang Cheng hadn't taken control of the company commander first, they would have been afraid that they would still be eating dirt and swallowing ashes on the middle of the road.

"Don't worry." Tang Cheng handed the binoculars in his hand to Jiujin, and patted him lightly on the shoulder, "You forgot that we have a pass in our hands, although that thing doesn't work for all levels, but we are still wearing the uniforms of the national army, I don't believe that a few guys from the militia will dare to do anything to me." After saying this, Tang Cheng turned around and strode towards the city gate, followed by Heizi and Liu Shishi and Jiujin's concerned eyes.

The people standing next to the rejection horse at the city gate were not the militia that Tang Cheng thought, but the soldiers of the national army, these two guys standing guard at the city gate had never seen the world as a truck when they were so old, so the moment they appeared in Tang Cheng, the first reaction of these two guys was to hide back in the city. When Tang Cheng only appeared in their sight with Heizi and Liu Shishi Shi Shiran, the dozens of national soldiers who were waiting at the head of the city found that they were making a fuss.

Not all of them would hide when they saw Tang Cheng and their trucks, but there were also those people who gathered outside the city gate in twos and threes and looked at Tang Cheng and the three of them who came over with great curiosity. The so-called national army sticking to this small county town is actually the temporary national army unit after the local militia group has been reorganized, except for a few officers who are members of the national army, the rest of the soldiers are completely from the former militia group, like Tangcheng They have neat uniforms and steel helmets wearing national troops, the people in the city have never seen it.

At the gate of the city, the two guys who had just hid and now reappeared were shouting and shouting, one was smiling and rubbing the people's oil, and the other was scolding and kicking others from time to time. The people who entered and exited the city gate dared not speak out, and those who were robbed and kicked could only mumble two words at most, and they just wanted to get out of here as soon as possible.

Tang Cheng had already noticed that the kicking guy was peeking at him, and pretended to unintentionally look up at the muzzle of the gun exposed on the city's head, and Tang Cheng opened the cover of the gun on his waist with his backhand, so that he could save some time when he pulled out the gun. When the three of Tang Cheng walked to the wooden horse, the soldier who kicked the man raised his hand to block it with the rifle in his hand, and asked loudly, "Stop, what are you doing?" Pat-down. ”

"Slap" Tang Cheng raised his hand and slapped it over, and then scolded fiercely, "What are you that dare to block Lao Tzu's way, call your commander here to come out, you are a broken county, Lao Tzu is not rare to enter at all." The guy who was slapped in the face glared and was about to pull the bolt, but the black man who came up close to him pressed his neck with a short knife in his sleeve, and Liu Shishi, who was a little slower, could only put the barge gun that had already wrenched the hammer on the guy's head.

The guy who was looting from the people in the past was obviously an old oilman, and when he saw this scene, he was so frightened that he hurriedly came over and said good things while nodding at Tang Cheng, "Officer, you raise your noble hand, he is a new soldier, he doesn't understand anything, you raise your noble hand, raise your noble hand." As he spoke, this guy took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and took out one and handed it to Tang Cheng, Tang Cheng didn't reach out to take the cigarette he handed over, because Tang Cheng smelled a conspiracy from this guy's body.

didn't reach out to pick up the cigarette, Tang Cheng just stared at him coldly for a while, and then eased his expression and reached out to take the cigarette he handed over, "We are the troops of the 88th Division of the National Army that were scattered in Nanjing, and we came to your place after the troops of Mengcheng and the 173rd Division intercepted the Japanese army and were dispersed, please call your commander out, I have the pass issued by the Fuyang Garrison Command here." Tang Cheng didn't light the cigarette, and politely took out the pass issued by the Fuyang Garrison Command from his pocket.

"Chief, why don't you go into the city with me, our head of the regiment will not be here, you want to find him to enter the city." Taking the pass handed by Tang Cheng and looking at it randomly, this obviously illiterate guy was in trouble, but he recognized the big blue sky and white sun flag on the pass. Seeing that Tang Cheng took back the pass, this guy who was already oozing cold sweat kicked his companion and scolded indiscriminately, "Zhao Laosan, your fucking eyes are used to eat shit, even the official bar dares to stop you, I think you are the old monk's wooden fish, born to be beaten!" ”

Zhao Laosan, who had been kicked on the buttocks, hurriedly followed the example of his companion and nodded at Tang Cheng, no, this time it made Heizi and Liu Shishi have a bad seizure, so they could only withdraw their knives and guns stupidly. Tang Cheng squinted at the guy who was smiling with him in some surprise, this was a long-eyed one, only kicked lightly, but rescued the companion who was held by the sunspot with a knife, this line has a bit of Liu goat's taste and style.

"Chief, come with me." The old oilman, who called himself Niu Laogui, motioned for Tang Cheng and the three of them to follow him into the city, and waved his arms a few times towards the city, and the muzzles that had been locked by Tang Cheng with the corner of his eyes disappeared immediately. This is a personal essence, Tang Cheng made up his mind to Niu Laogui, if he wanted to ask for information from such a guy's mouth, it was simply Lang who spent time and energy, so Tang Cheng, who was following Niu Laogui, didn't say a word, but confused Niu Laogui.

Maybe it's because the Japanese army hasn't hit here yet, but the county town is a little lively, and the three of Tang Cheng entered the city and followed Niu Laogui in the direction of the station he said, and they were greeted by pedestrians and soldiers in variegated military uniforms. There are many shops and stalls on the street leading to the city gate, and there are many pedestrians on the street. Some of the traders and civilians looked around with panicked looks, for fear that they would run into the motley soldiers who were rampaging through the streets.

"Squad Leader, have you always been like this here? These soldiers just wander around the bazaar with guns? Tang Cheng stopped Niu Laogui, who was leading the way in front, and pointed to a few drunken soldiers who had just come out of the restaurant and were walking staggeringly, all of them were carrying firearms without exception, and Tang Cheng even saw a grenade on one of the guys. When Tang Cheng called Niu Laogui to stop, a few drunken motley soldiers shook out of the restaurant, and the pedestrians on the street avoided these rampaging guys.

Niu Laogui just squinted at Tang Cheng's fingers, and then said with a smile, "Commander, these are not the people of our garrison regiment, they seem to have been withdrawn from the front like you, Commander, and we don't know the specific number of the troops, anyway, there are dozens of such people in the county seat." Seeing Niu Laogui's smiling or not, Tang Cheng couldn't help frowning, following Liu Goat for so long, Tang Cheng had long been accustomed to the cynicism of others, but he was not used to being compared.

"Company commander, they also have a garrison here?" Tang Cheng didn't speak, but Liu Shishi, who was following him, came up and whispered a few words to Tang Cheng. Niu Laogui did mention the garrison just now, but Tang Cheng didn't pay attention, and Liu Shishi, who had been staring at Niu Laogui, didn't let go of every word in his words. Tang Cheng just glanced at Liu Shishi, but did not speak, how rare, the garrison regiment is not a regular army of the national army, just a person like Ge Kunshan can ask for a garrison regiment to come back.

Tang Cheng, who was following Niu Laogui, was silent again, which doubled the pressure on Niu Laogui, who led the way for them, Tang Cheng didn't point to ask for news from Niu Laogui's mouth, but Niu Laogui wanted to say something from Tang Cheng's mouth as a doll official, but Tang Cheng didn't speak first, Niu Laogui didn't dare to speak. The four of them walked through the street in silence, and Niu Laogui, who led the way in front, pondered Tang Cheng behind him, but Tang Cheng, like the sunspots, looked east and west at the pedestrians on the street and those shops.

The sunspot who was born as a bandit is purely a conditioned reflex, as long as he goes to a place with a lot of people, the sunspot will unconsciously be wary of everyone. Liu Shishi was watching the excitement, although it was not as lively as Mengcheng, it was more exciting than their boring marching life in the past few days, especially the food on those stalls made Liu Shishi unable to take his eyes off. Compared with Heizi and Liu Shishi, Tang Cheng is much calmer, he mainly looks at the shops on both sides of the street, not all of them are open, Tang Cheng is looking for pharmacies and clinics.
