Chapter 11 Return to Training

"No, I don't agree." While eating, Tang Hongyi suddenly put down the dishes and chopsticks, and held back his anger to ask the mother-in-law at home to take Huang Duoduo and Huang Xiaohu out to play, and then roared at the innocent Huang Hanju and Tang Cheng. "Why do you have to go to the 60th Army in a small town? He didn't go anywhere, just do this stationmaster, I look at it is good, you don't know that his injury has not been long after, so it is good to let him stay in Dabanqiao. Tang Hongyi's unprovoked anger made Huang Hanju and Tang Cheng speechless, originally this topic was brought up by the two of them, which is not to blame others.

Huang Hanju said that he wanted Tangcheng to try his best to collect the rout in order to prepare for a rainy day, but in September, the activities of the Japanese army in Vietnam became more and more frequent, and Long Yun had to write to Chiang Kai-shek, requesting that the two units of the 58th Army and the 60th Army that were deployed on the front line of Changsha be transferred back to guard the Japanese army in Hanoi. Chiang Kai-shek did not fully agree to Long Yun's request, but he did not completely refuse, and finally only agreed to let the 60th Army, which suffered heavy casualties, return to Yunnan for defense.

But Huang Hanju didn't want to give up just like that, although the 60th Army said that it returned to Yunnan, the 60th Army also suffered heavy casualties, and a veteran like Tang Cheng who had fought and could fight was urgently needed by the 60th Army, as long as Tang Cheng was willing to enter the 60th Army, Huang Hanju had a way to let Tang Cheng command a battalion of troops alone. "Xiaocheng is already an adult, you can't let him be a small stationmaster like this for the rest of his life, this is an opportunity, maybe he can command a battalion alone." Huang Hanju defended himself in a low voice, but it attracted Tang Hongyi's angry eyes.

"No, I said, even if he becomes a fool in the future, then I'm happy." Tang Hongyi's words made Huang Hanju completely out of luck, so he had to turn his head to look at Tang Cheng, who couldn't cry or laugh. "Don't look at him, it's useless to look at him, I'm happy to raise a gentleman, you can't control it, and besides, Xiaocheng's own money is enough for him to be a gentleman." Huang Hanju and Tang Cheng were speechless, and Tang Hongyi, who was proud, picked up the bowl again and concentrated on dealing with his favorite sweet and sour fish.

Tang Cheng was actually not very interested in entering the 60th Army, although the Dian Army was brave in battle, but just like Tang Hongyi feared, the Dian Army was in a group, and it was difficult for him to integrate into them if he was not from Yunnan. Even if Huang Hanju made a contribution behind his back to make himself an officer in the 60th Army, the soldiers of the Yunnan Army under his command would not be convinced by his half-old child officer, thinking about it left and right, Tang Cheng still decided to obey the decision of the Tang Conference, and only did this station chief.

With the return of the 60th Army, the battle on the front line gradually became known to the people of Yunnan, and what was more known to the people of Yunnan was the heavy casualties of the Yunnan army. There were also many more wounded soldiers in the shelters in Tangcheng, and the hospitals in the city were not enough, so the wounded could only be shunted to more than a dozen such shelters for treatment and recuperation. Last time, Tang Hongyi vetoed Tang Cheng's entry into the 60th Army, and the Administration sent a very capable deputy station commander to Tang Cheng, so Tang Cheng is now completely an idler with nothing to do.

"Training starts tomorrow, and you boys will go to bed early at night." At dinner, Tang Cheng threw out a decision that Liu Shishi and the others could barely swallow. Since they came to Kunming, Liu Shishi's daily training has already stopped, except for the maintenance of their firearms from time to time, Liu Shishi and others have already forgotten about training, and suddenly heard Tang Cheng say that he wanted to resume training, Liu Shishi was immediately shocked.

"You kid see what I'm doing, didn't hear what I just said, I said that from tomorrow, a few of you will resume training, and I will participate this time." Tang Cheng looked at Liu Shishi, who had a bitter face, repeating what he had just said word by word, his decision made Liu Shishi completely cry without tears, and then looked at Tan Fei but he didn't care, Zhang Xiaobao and the two soldiers of the Yunnan army were already full of pleading.

Tang Cheng didn't care about this, he got up early the next day, woke up all the Liu Shishi in his sleep, and didn't let them wash their faces and brush their teeth, so he dragged people around the courtyard of the shelter for no less than a dozen laps. The courtyard of the containment station is not small now, and it is seven or eight miles after more than a dozen laps, even if Liu Shishi and the others have been forced by Tang Cheng to conduct training on foot marching, they are still tired and out of breath and almost collapse to the ground.

"Isn't that tiring? They all got up, and the wounded soldiers in other people's yards saw our jokes. Tang Cheng himself was not lightly tired, but he still tried his best to stand up straight, although he himself was panting heavily, but he still hardened his heart and forced Liu Shishi, who collapsed to the ground, and a few of them stood up and lined up to return to the camp. The stationmaster, who has always been lazy, suddenly took someone to run the morning exercise, and the wounded soldiers in the shelter were greatly surprised, and the wounded soldiers who were familiar with Liu Shishi knew that these little guys were the people around the stationmaster, and the unfamiliar ones thought that the stationmaster was idle and had nothing to do, and took a few little guys to play with them.

The surprised eyes of the wounded soldiers made Liu Shishi and the others, who were already upset, very uncomfortable, and naturally some people responded angrily, "What's wrong with people looking at you?" Could it be that you are all small jasper who can't see people? Zhao Shuisheng, who glared at the wounded soldiers, was severely reprimanded by Tang Cheng, this small soldier of the Yunnan Army who was taken in by Tang Cheng in Gujiao Town had been completely integrated into the small collective of Tang Cheng, and after being reprimanded by Tang Cheng, he could only shrink his neck like Liu Shi and quietly hide behind Tan Fei.

Seeing that Zhao Shuisheng was reprimanded by Tang Cheng, Liu Shishi and the others all laughed secretly, and secretly squeezed their eyes with Zhao Shuisheng, who could only dare to ignore Liu Shishi's deliberate provocation in anger because Tang Cheng was still there. The provocation between the few little guys has long been seen by Tang Cheng, but he ignored it, maybe in the eyes of outsiders, these little guys are disobedient, but Tang Cheng thinks this is very good, and the good-natured joke will only enhance the friendship between several people rather than antagonism.

Tang Cheng's injuries had already recovered, but running in the morning was not all his training, so Liu Shishi and the others had a hasty breakfast and were taken by Tang Cheng to the warehouse where the supplies were stored. "Pick your own equipment, two guns, one long and one short, 60 pistol rounds, 100 rifle rounds, and 4 grenades. There will be no shortage of steel helmets, water bottles, and bayonets, and I will give you ten minutes, and those who come out after that time will have their lunch halved. Tang Cheng rarely spoke in such an indifferent tone and with great affection, so Liu Shishi and the others were a little stunned, and when they came back to their senses, Tang Cheng had already carried his things out of the warehouse.

"Hurry up and find your own things, the company commander's words will never be discounted, saying that whoever you clean up will definitely scare your hands to death." Liu Shishi and Tan Fei rushed to the long box in front of them one after another, followed by Zhang Xiaobao, Zhao Shuisheng and Mu Chun, who were left last. The things Tang Cheng said were all classified and packed in long boxes, and as long as Liu Shi stretched out their hands, they could get them, so the time left by Tang Cheng for them was completely enough, although several people were a little dragged over, they still left the warehouse within the time specified by Tang Cheng.

"From today onwards, these things you find will always follow you, weapons are the life of soldiers, I hope you can take care of them, you must remember to maintain your weapons after training every day, if I find that you can't do it, the dinner of the day will be halved." It was not suitable to continue training just after breakfast, so Tang Cheng took Liu Shi and the others back to the small courtyard, and sat in the courtyard to maintain and inspect their respective weapons and equipment.

"I think you're an idle person, if you can't be idle, you can go up the mountain with me to collect medicine, and you can't afford to take stones and they practice playing." Mu Lianshan always likes to contradict Tang Cheng, although he doesn't know what Tang Cheng means by retraining Liu Shishi, but he likes to see Tang Cheng's aggrieved appearance, so he doesn't forget to damage Tang Cheng when he finds the opportunity.

"What do you know" Tang Cheng turned his face to look at Mu Lianshan, "The Japanese have already entered Vietnam, and Yunnan is next to Vietnam, so it is difficult to guarantee that the Japanese do not want to enter Vietnam from Vietnam." Yunnan's current military strength is insufficient, and it is not good to say that one day we will be conscripted into the Yunnan army, do you want to watch the stones and they die on the battlefield before you are willing? "The news that the Japanese army might attack Burma has not been confirmed, and Tang Cheng did not dare to mention it, so he had to use Vietnam as an excuse, which is a fact that many people already know.

"I know that you are always a reason, forget it, I mean you can't do it, you are busy, I will take Yingzi up the mountain to collect medicine." Although Mu Lianshan said that he liked to raise the bar with Tang Cheng, he also knew that if what Tang Cheng said was correct, what Tang Cheng was doing now would only be good for Liu Shi and not harmful. Tangcheng's shelter is under the direct control of the administrative department, although the medicine issued is enough, but Mu Lianshan is used to living a hard life, some headaches and brain fever minor diseases can use some herbs, so in order to save the consumption of medicines, Mu Lianshan will always go up the mountain from time to time to pick herbs and come back.

"Little brother, can you also take those soldiers who have recovered to practice? These people have fought and only need to train for a while before they can return to the army, and what the Dian army lacks now is soldiers who can fight immediately with guns. Knowing that Tang Cheng's side had begun to resume daily training, Huang Hanju immediately rushed from the city. But what he didn't want to see was that Tang Cheng was only followed by Liu Shi and a few of their little guys, and Huang Hanju wanted to persuade Tang Cheng to help with the training of those defeated soldiers in the containment station.

"Brother-in-law, don't embarrass me, they are all arrogant soldiers, but they don't look down on me as a little captain, it's good to see them don't make trouble with me, don't expect me to train them." Tang Cheng directly rejected Huang Hanju's suggestion, and the routs in the shelter were different from the routs he encountered along the way. Huang Chengzhong and they had no way to survive at that time, so it would be easy to follow Tang Cheng, and these defeated soldiers in the shelter were already in the rear, so they naturally would not condescend to Tang Cheng's command, after all, Tang Cheng's official position and age were too young.
