"Do we have to keep retreating? The rest of the regiment is still in Shanghai, so can we count this as an escape? It's too easy to clean up a little trash like us. As soon as Xie Bo started, Liu Goat interrupted him. Although Xie Bo chose to retreat to Suzhou for the sake of the remaining brothers of the Second Company, those big men in the army didn't know what to do, and if those old men with fat stomachs were broken, it would be easy to clean up a crippled Xie Bo.

Xie Bo values Tang Cheng, and Tang Cheng also has some skills, but this is a matter related to the entire Second Company, Xie Bo can only ask Liu Goat to discuss this matter privately, so no matter what Liu Goat's reaction is, this matter will not be known and mentioned by the third person. "Regiment headquarters?" Listening to Liu Goat's mention of the regiment headquarters, Xie Bo sneered twice, why would the second company fight like this with the Japanese army, if it weren't for someone in the regiment secretly making it bad, would the second company fight alone when fighting to the death with the Japanese army? Moreover, the second company was ordered to retreat to Qiandeng Town, and the regiment did not even allocate a radio station to the second company, which is not an obvious attempt to make the second company lose contact with the regimental headquarters.

"Let's wait a little longer, haven't they come back yet, wait for them to answer and ask about the situation, our second company number is still there, and the regiment headquarters won't leave us people aside." Although he probably knew what Xie Bo was thinking, Liu Goat would not say it. Liu Goat, who has been in the army for many years, knows the difference between a protégé of the Son of Heaven and an ordinary low-level officer, he Liu Goat is just a second lieutenant platoon commander, and military affairs will be engaged in military law, and he does not have the courage to do so.

Liu Goat's inability to make a decision on the spot disappointed Xie Bo, which was also the reason why he chose to let Tang Cheng stay in Erlian. Tang Cheng's battlefield experience is not as good as Liu Goat, but Tang Cheng's speed of learning things is very fast, and Tang Cheng's brain is very fast, but the way of dealing with people and dealing with things is incomparable to Liu Goat. Liu Goat is still the same as ordinary people in his bones, he is very good at tossing in the second company, and when facing an officer who is slightly higher than his rank, Liu Goat's little cleverness will not work.

"Isn't everything clear, it's been five days since we arrived in this Qiandeng Town, and there is no news from the regiment headquarters and division headquarters, since the day before yesterday, the number of defeated troops withdrawn from the front has begun to increase, since the above already has the idea of retreating from Shanghai, I think our 88th Division should be the first batch of troops to retreat." Xie Bo lost an arm and an eye, but his brain was not broken, as long as he carefully analyzed the news that he already knew the Dao, Xie Bo could come up with the answer.

"You are the company commander, you have the final say, I will go out to see if they have come back." Seeing that Xie Bo was not easy to convince, Liu Shanyang had no choice but to retreat and choose to go out to find out the news. The relationship between Liu Goat and Xie Bo is very good, they are all about saying whatever they want, although neither of them can convince each other, but they are not angry, Liu Goat took the initiative to retreat but eased the embarrassing atmosphere in the room.

"Leaving?" Tang Cheng, who had nothing to do, was dragged by Liu Goat to the checkpoint at the entrance of the town to wait for the grinder, and Liu Goat, who waved his whip to drive the cart, couldn't hold back for a while, so he told Tang Cheng that Xie Bo planned to continue and retreat to Suzhou. Compared with Liu Goat, Tang Cheng, who is half the age less than Liu Goat, is much calmer, Tang Cheng, who has no intention of staying in Erlian, definitely supports the retreat, he is now a rich man, and the gold bars on his body are enough for him to live carefree anywhere for several years, and he can't afford to be worried about it all day long when he is mixed with Erlian.

"But Suzhou may not be safe, wasn't that Japanese spy caught me outside Suzhou, I guess Suzhou should also be the target of the Japanese, and it should be Suzhou's turn to conquer Shanghai." Tang Cheng thought for a while, sighed as if worried, and then lay on his back in the cart, looking at the sky with his eyes and wondering what Lu Dao was thinking. Tang Cheng secretly squinted at Liu Goat, who was concentrating on driving the car, he knew that Liu Goat would definitely continue to ask questions, what Tang Cheng had to do now was to pretend to be indifferent, only in this way, Liu Goat would not think that he was a lobbyist who spoke for Xie Bo.

"I don't know what to do, it's good to take one step at a time, anyway, I have a gun in my hand, and the Japanese soldiers will fight when they come, and if they can't fight, they will run." Liu Goat really couldn't be idle, and when he saw Tang Cheng lying in the cart in a daze, he re-energized the topic of whether Tang Cheng would continue to stay in Erlian. In fact, it is in vain to ask, Tang Cheng can't leave the second company now, whether it is in the courtyard where the second company is resting now, or going out in the town, Tang Cheng will always have people from the second company by his side, as long as he dares to run, the people who follow him will definitely catch him back.

"Don't think about it, you kid, our company commander means that you follow the second company, in these chaotic years, where can you go by yourself as a hairy child, anyway, we are also a regular army, it is better for you to follow us than to wander around." Tang Cheng, who was exposed to the warm sun, squinted his eyes, and at the same time, he also deeply stimulated Liu Goat. Why is this kid like a comfortable old man, but he, the second lieutenant platoon commander, has to catch the car, so Liu Goat couldn't help but stimulate Tang Cheng with his words.

Sure enough, Tang Cheng, who was still basking in the sun leisurely a moment ago, was not calm at the moment, "It's not that I have to follow you, Lian Commander Xie said at that meeting, I can leave the second company at any time, as long as I want to leave, he will definitely not stop me, I don't believe you go back and ask him if he said this." Tang Cheng didn't hear that this was Liu Goat making fun of himself, so he turned over and sat up. Robert has instilled in him the Western way of thinking since he was a child, and Tang Cheng himself yearns for that kind of free life, leaving the second company is what he wants to do most now, although he is still wearing the uniform of the national army.

Seeing that Tang Cheng was a little anxious, Liu Goat was happy, "You kid is a donkey, just a few jokes, you are anxious, that is, Lao Tzu has a good temper, if you meet those snobbish guys in the regiment headquarters, you must not be directly sent into the confinement room to exude temperament." Although Tang Cheng performed well, Liu Goat, who has been in the army for more than 10 years, still treats him as just a big child, but it is necessary to give Tang Cheng a proper reminder, and Tang Cheng in the province has no brains to offend those who should not be offended.

The checkpoint at the entrance of the town had already been canceled because of the appearance of a large number of routs, and the regiments who had been temporarily recruited by the second company were also disbanded, but the mayor of the town gathered these regiments who had received several days of training together, and the town prepared some water and food at the checkpoint for the refugees and the rout, and these regiments were responsible for maintaining order at the checkpoint. When Liu Goat and Tang Cheng drove the fat man's cart to the checkpoint, they happened to encounter a wave of routs that had just withdrawn from the direction of Shanghai, but these routs made Liu Goat angry.

It's not that Liu Goat can't see the defeated soldiers, but the bodies of this group of defeated soldiers are so clean that their rifles don't even smell of gunpowder left after shooting, if Liu Goat hadn't knocked on one of the routs, he would almost have decided that this guy was an infiltration force sent by the Japanese army to blend in with the rout. "Yu Fatzi, did you guys and the Japanese exchange fire? How can Lao Tzu look at your bastard subordinates cleanly, don't you nod and run away when you hear the footsteps of the Japanese soldiers. ”

The fat man who was recognized by Liu Goat was surnamed Yu, he was a small quartermaster, the medicine that Xie Bo needed to be treated after he was injured, Liu Goat's search for medicine in the world, and he dealt with this guy who was angry that day, but the quartermaster surnamed Yu seems to be the 19th Division of the Hunan Army, this division should be stationed in Dachang, how could someone from the 19th Division suddenly come to Qiandeng Town. Liu Goat came to the checkpoint not only to wait for them, but also to get news related to Shanghai from the rout, and he was also afraid that the Japanese army would make dumplings in Qiandeng Town.

The fat man's body was clean, but everyone's face was very bad, especially the fat man's bloodshot eyes, as if he hadn't slept well for several days. "Uncle Liu, don't ask, I saw grinding them." Liu Goat also wanted to have a few words with the quartermaster surnamed Yu, but was interrupted by Tang Cheng, who was standing on the cart.

"Go back and say, this is not a place, there are many people." When Nian Zi took people back to find the regiment headquarters, Xie Bo gave the gun and money, but after the Nian Zi and Liu Goat converged, the sharp-eyed Tang Cheng found that the holsters on the Grinders and their bodies were empty, and the shell guns issued to them by Xie Bo were missing. The old Liu Goat didn't ask much, but just let the tired mills and them all get into the cart, and then drove the cart back to the yard of the second company.

The rest of the people in the second company were in the courtyard and craned their necks to stare at the door, outside the door were people who were eager to know the news, inside the door were Xie Bo, Liu Goat and those who were ordered to go to Shanghai to find out the news, Tang Cheng guarded the gate alone to prevent outsiders from breaking in. "Tell everyone to pack up their things and go refuel the truck, we're getting out of here, let's go right away." Liu Goat's face was extremely bad when he came out of the room, and so did the mill, no one rushed over to continue the topic he wanted to know, and they all packed up their things and prepared to leave according to Liu Goat's orders.

"You go to the company commander's house to help put things in place, and we'll get out of here in a while." Seeing that Liu Goat's face was not good, Tang Cheng just pouted and entered Xie Bo's house to help pack up his things. Tang Cheng, who had already seen some signs, didn't bother to ask Xie Bo, looking at their cautious appearance just now, he knew that something was wrong, otherwise Xie Bo would not suddenly order to leave Qiandeng Town, and Liu Goat only said that he would leave Qiandeng Town, and did not say where he was going.
