Li Shun took Li Linge's name card to the barracks of the garrison regiment, but unfortunately he pounced again, and half an hour before he arrived at the barracks, Liu Goat, who had just returned from training outside the city, was called to the county government by Ge Kunshan." The men of the 173rd Division will arrive the day after tomorrow, and we need to vacate the barracks for them? What about me? Sleeping in the wilderness? Liu Goat, who was in a good mood, did not turn his face with Ge Kunshan immediately, but asked a series of questions.

Liu Goat's good temper makes Ge Kunshan very face-saving, and when he talks to Liu Goat, he naturally seems much more intimate, "Isn't there a police station in the county, I'll give you that police station as a headquarters." The school in the county is no longer open, so how about the school as a barracks for you? Anyway, you have to arrange a company to guard those two checkpoints every day, and I will ask the people to build you more houses in the school, and there will be no problem at all for a few hundred people. ”

"But what will happen to my people during the time when the house is built?" The school place that Ge Kunshan said is quite large, and Liu Goat also likes that place, but it is obviously impossible for the school's current houses to accommodate all 800 people of the garrison regiment. The garrison regiment now has five companies with a total of 800 people, and one company has to be dispatched every day to guard the two checkpoints on the periphery of Mengcheng, and Liu Shanyang can still not transfer another company to serve as a 24-hour defense and patrol of the county, but the remaining three companies have at least more than 500 people, and the current school cannot accommodate 500 people at all.

"Don't worry, the 173rd Division that came the day after tomorrow is not all, they are just the front troops of a company first, and the large army may not be able to come over for half a month, which is enough to build a house for you." Ge Kunshan's explanation finally reassured Liu Shanyang, as long as there was enough time and things, those people in the garrison group could build houses by themselves. "But when the time comes, don't clash with the 713th Division, our Mengcheng can still point to your garrison." Ge Kunshan had already classified Liu Goat among the locals of Mengcheng, and Liu Goat, who listened to it, couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

"Do you want us to change places? And to give this place to the people of the 173rd Division? Like Liu Goat, Lao Xu and Jiujin were very surprised when they heard the news. When I first came into this barracks, it was just a place where the militia made a miasma of smoke and even a dog, and if it wasn't for their repair and maintenance, I am afraid that this place would have been rotten and uninhabitable. Compared with Liu Goat's indifference, Jiujin, who has not seen much of the world, reacted more intensely, this honest farmer's child has already regarded this military camp as his own home, and let others live here, Jiujin is really unwilling.

"You should also talk about it" Lao Xu quietly kicked Tang Cheng who was speechless with his foot, in his opinion, it seemed that only Tang Cheng's words could make Liu Goat change his mind. After getting along with Liu Goat for a long time, Lao Xu no longer has the nervousness and anxiety that Liu Goat and Tang Cheng had when they were kidnapped, but instead has familiarity and trust. He was almost ten years older than Tang Cheng, and he knew that this young guy was a kid with a lot of things inside, maybe at this time, only Tang Cheng's words would work.

Lao Xu's self-conscious secret movements were watched by Liu Goat, and Liu Goat, who was holding back his smile, turned his gaze to Tang Cheng, who had not spoken, and waited for Tang Cheng to react. Two of the four people focused on themselves, which made Tang Cheng a little proud, but on the matter of giving up the barracks, Tang Cheng rarely agreed with Liu Goat.

"My opinion is also to agree to the request of the county government to give this place to the people of the 173rd Division." didn't even wait for Tang Cheng to finish speaking, Lao Xu and Jiujin jumped up, especially Jiujin's gaze made Tang Cheng feel like he was sitting on the fire. Striking a match and lighting the cigarette that had been in his mouth for a while, Tang Cheng, who was slowly smoking, waited for Lao Xu and Jiujin to stop glaring at him, and then said slowly, "We are just a garrison regiment, and the 173rd Division is a regular unit of the national army, and besides, they were ordered by the Fifth War Zone to come and enter Mengcheng, is it necessary to do this with them?" ”

In fact, Tang Cheng was worried that the garrison regiment would be used as cannon fodder by the 173rd Division to block the front, when he was in Nanjing, Tang Cheng had already learned such a thing, and this time, he didn't want to be cannon fodder again. "Now it is the county magistrate himself who made this request, if we don't agree, we will offend both the county magistrate and the 173rd Division at the same time, and our garrison regiment of only 800 people seems to have nothing to be equal to others, can't you see it?"

"Isn't it just a military camp, I've also been to the school, that place is about the same size as here, not to mention that the county will build us a new house. It's also a good thing for us to stay here in Mengcheng, at least when we find a conflict with the people of the 173rd Division, the county magistrate will not listen to the 173rd Division. Liu Goat looked at Tang Cheng with a smile, this kid is learning from Xie Bo, a typical slap to feed a date to eat, for such a routine, Liu Goat, who has been with Xie Bo for more than 4 years, is too familiar with it.

Liu Goat guessed right, Tang Cheng who said these words was indeed learning Xie Bo's routine, Tang Cheng was looking through the notebook left by Xie Bo these days, and what was recorded in the note was not faint but only about marching and fighting, as well as some of Xie Bo's experience in dealing with people after graduating from the Whampoa Military Academy and entering the 88th Division these years. Figuring out a person's psychology and personality can play a helpful role in getting along in the future, this is a sentence in Xie Bo's notes, and it is precisely because of the character of Lao Xu and Jiujin that Tang Cheng will say those words just now.

Lao Xu didn't know Liu Goat before they were a traveling doctor who walked the streets and alleys, and wherever he went, where he stayed, the nine catties that were abducted from Tangcheng from a small village were also homeless. After staying in Mengcheng for several months, these two guys have faintly regarded this military camp as their home, and when they heard Liu Goat say that they wanted to give this place to others, their hearts would naturally be uncomfortable, but this does not mean that they are unreasonable people, as long as they can smooth the breath in their hearts, Lao Xu and Jiujin will definitely not be angry in this matter.

The school Ge Kunshan said, in fact, Tang Cheng had never been to it at all, and he hadn't even heard of the existence of a school in the county, and the reason why he said that was just to make Lao Xu and Jiujin feel at ease. Sure enough, after hearing Tang Cheng say that the county government would give them a school to serve as a military camp, and the size of the school was about the same as here, Lao Xu was the first to stop worrying about this matter. "Are you serious? Is the school really the same size as ours? Do we have a place for our supplies and horses? "Compared with the two of living and stacking materials, Lao Xu, who is in charge of the logistics supply of the garrison regiment, will always only think of those materials first.

"The police station in Gekunshan county also serves as a command post for me, and I thought that you had no place to pile up those things, so I also brought the county prison to you, and just took it for you to use as a warehouse." Liu Goat, who was secretly holding back a smile, interjected at the right time and directly solved the warehouse that Lao Xu needed. "The prison in the county has a high wall and a thick door, so it's perfect to use it as a warehouse, I'm transferring the stone company to the prison to garrison, and you don't even have to watch the gate."

"Oh, that's good, that's good." Lao Xu, who had gained a big benefit, kept rubbing his hands happily, and Tang Cheng, who was watching, despised this guy who had no idea. Wasn't it quite loud just now, a prison that was about to be abandoned made him so happy, if he was given a real army treasury, I don't know how happy this person would be.

"Can you really build us a new house? Is it good that the house built can have this side? Compared with Lao Xu, Jiujin is much more stuffy, and all his thoughts are focused on the house. Like all ordinary people in China, Jiujin, who was born in a peasant family, values houses and fields the most, and in his world, fields are the guarantee of life, and only by living in people's houses can he feel at home.

"Now I know it, it's not a bad thing to give up the barracks, we have to go out of the city every day to train, the barracks is just a place to eat and sleep, as long as the house on the other side of the school is built, sleeping and eating over there is no different from here." After obtaining Liu Goat's assurance, Tang Cheng ended his coaxing, and Lao Xu and Jiujin were already smiling and no longer glaring at Liu Goat and Tang Cheng.

"There is one more thing I want to tell you first" When Lao Xu and Jiujin were no longer excited, Liu Goat continued to speak, "The people of the 173rd Division will rush to Mengcheng the day after tomorrow, but they will not come with a whole group, but a vanguard company that set off in advance. According to the regular establishment of the national army, the number of people in this company they came over is about 140, and I want you to remember that before we move to school, it is best not to conflict with them, and to endure anything first. ”

"Why do you want us to put up with them, this is Mengcheng, we are the Mengcheng garrison, they are from outside, it should be that they are always a little bit." The army is a big dye vat, which is full of all kinds of people, Tang Cheng, who has experienced battles and faced the Japanese soldiers alone, is a guy who can't rub sand in his eyes, and in the face of the 173rd Division that doesn't know the details, Liu Goat is most worried that Tang Cheng will suddenly come out. Summoning Lao Xu and Jiujin to come over, Liu Goat just wanted to give Tang Cheng a preventive shot in front of them, and the province would be disgusted by the people of the 173rd Division because of Tang Cheng.

To Liu Goat's surprise, it was not Tang Cheng's kid who was the first to express his disdain, but the always honest nine catties, which made him somewhat surprised and unbelievable. Liu Goat has been worried about Tang Cheng, a guy with a fast brain, this kid dares to shoot and hurt people in front of Li Linge, Liu Goat is worried that this scene will be staged on those people in the 173rd Division, but he didn't expect that the first person who was hostile to the 173rd Division was Jiujin.
