Chapter 5: Blood and Fire (1)

"This Qin Zhenyuan is really bad!" Mrs. Zhou looked at Mo Di's manuscript and whispered: "When we were in Qianshan, we often saw this Qin Zhenyuan, and I don't know what happened to him. It was late autumn, the breeze was blowing the coolness of autumn, and in the small yard, the vegetables had changed again, and Mrs. Zhou sat on the steps, draped in a woolen shawl, and the setting sun sprinkled the golden light on her body, reflecting the slightly rich face red.

After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, he returned to Guangxi and continued his position as the commander of the militia. After the mainland changed banners, there was no news of him, and it was estimated that his level was too low to reach the talk of idlers. Mo Di said that he stood in the vegetable garden with his trousers and bare feet, tending to his side dishes, and a hoe in his hand made him more and more skillful, and flew in the furrow, and in a short time a small pile of weeds gathered on the ground. After a few days of exposure, these weeds are burned into plant ash, which becomes the most primitive farm fertilizer in the vegetable field.

"He's lost such a big battle, it's time to scold him." Mrs. Zhou asked.

"No, he was rewarded from above." The hoe in Mo Di's hand hoeed a weed at the root of the wall, this weed has been hoeed several times, and it has grown out again in a short time.

"How so!" Mrs. Zhou asked a little surprised.

Mo Di didn't speak, stopped the hoe, took out a cigarette from his trouser pocket, lit one, took a deep breath, a trace of bitterness came out of his mouth, and a trace of bitterness was wiped in his heart.

The Qutian Infantry Brigade returned to Anji, and Qin Zhenyuan, who had escaped death, sat on the ground for a long time, and finally came back to his senses, found Zhang Qingzhu's body, cried a few times, turned around and scolded Chen Zhengxin, thinking that it was because he did not take the initiative to attack that Zhang Qingzhu's martyrdom was caused, and he wanted to report to Shangfeng and severely punish Chen Zhengxin.

Chen Zhengxin was scolded in a daze, or the second battalion commander Lan Daigang saw that the opportunity was wrong, took away Qin Zhenyuan, who was weak, and in the baggage team, he took out a pack horse, let Qin Zhenyuan ride on, buried the sacrificed martyrs on the spot, and slowly retreated to Lin'an with his injured comrades.

Chen Zhengxin took the initiative to let Lan Daigang accompany the head of the group to go first, not wanting to take too many pictures, he knew that the head of the group did not want to see him.

was scolded inexplicably, the more Chen Zhengxin thought about it, the more uncomfortable he became, and his feet became slower and slower, and the three company commanders under his command also knew that their battalion commanders were in a bad mood, so they also restrained the troops and slowly accompanied him.

Not long after, Huang Bamei and Xu Le happily rushed up with a group of loyal and righteous national salvation troops, and this time they got more than 50 sets of equipment and more than 5,000 rounds of ammunition, which was enough to supplement the loss in the battle, there were no dead people, let alone losses, and they were very satisfied. Along the way, after repeated invitations from Liu Keji and Huang Bamei, Xu Le has agreed to join the Loyal and Righteous National Salvation Army and serve as the captain of the special agent of the Jiangnan Advance Brigade of the Military Unification Bureau.

Hearing Xu Le's words, Chen Zhengxin, who was walking on the side, said: "Xu Le, if you really want to leave, I will go to pick up your position as the commander of the spear company, under Qin Zhenyuan, I have had enough." ”

Xu Le laughed: "I believe you are joking, you are a dignified battalion commander, and you will deign to be a small company commander!" ”

"Nonsense!" Chen Zhengxin said with a smile: "Who doesn't know that your spear company belongs to the brigade headquarters, your company commander is a major, and I am only a major, I can't do this company commander." ”

"Brother Xu's rank is major?" Huang Bamei looked at Xu Le in surprise.

Xu Le nodded and said, "Our brothers, the commander of the artillery company Li and the commander of the engineer company Wei, are both with the rank of major. ”

"Ouch, I asked people to report that you were the captain of the major, and I thought that I had promoted your rank, but who knew that it was just a level." Huang Bamei said remorsefully.

"What is this, I don't care, Sister Huang, I don't understand a little, why doesn't our loyal and righteous National Salvation Army belong to the military department, how come it belongs to the military command, what is this military command?" Xu Le asked.

"I don't really understand." Huang Bamei said: "Listen to Zhu Jinkui, there is a story here, many years ago, there was an Italian country in the West, and there was a blackshirt party in the country, and there was a group of people in our Central Party Department who set up a blue-clothed society according to the scoop and painted a gourd, and the blue-clothed society had a special service department, and the director was called Dai Li, who was a Huangpu protégé of Chairman Jiang. When the Japanese fought in Shanghai, the General Staff Headquarters of the Military Commission found that the Japanese were even more familiar with fighting on their own soil than we did, and they did not understand anything about the situation. In December last year, on the basis of the special service of the Blue Coat Society, the Investigation and Statistics Bureau of the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government was established, and the director of the bureau was still Dai Li, who was fully responsible for military intelligence and was directly responsible to Chairman Chiang. Zhu Jinkui said that on the land north of the Qiantang River, except for Director Dai, we can not sell anyone's face. ”

Huang Bamei talked for a long time, Xu Le still didn't understand, he was really a little out of line with politics, but he recognized one point, instead of fighting hard with the Japanese on the frontal battlefield, it was better to live a peaceful and stable life with Huang Bamei, the local snakes.

"Zhengxin, you really want to pick up my position, aren't you kidding?" Xu Le asked.

Chen Zhengxin nodded, and said a little angrily: "It is estimated that as soon as I return to Lin'an, what I will face is to be reported and punished by our head Qin. Xu Le, you are the boss who brought to Yishan from Guilin, Qin Zhenyuan never dared to look at you differently, we are natives of Yishan, outsiders look like Qin Tuan's old subordinates when he was in the militia, but in fact it is not the same thing at all. If you don't believe it, when you go back to Lin'an, he will put the responsibility for Zhang Qingzhu's death on me, thinking that it was because I didn't take the initiative to attack that caused Zhang Qingzhu's death, and at the same time, because I didn't take the initiative to attack, I lost the opportunity and couldn't annihilate the Qutian Infantry Brigade in one fell swoop. I've thought about it, if I stay in the 1055th regiment, I won't have a good life, it's better to follow Boss Mo, and I can still fight some good battles. ”

"You have a point, I'll help you." Xu Le said: "With you to take my hand, I can go with peace of mind." ”

Huang Bamei interjected and said: "After I go back, I will ask Zhu Jinkui to report the actual situation of your battle to the military commander, hoping that the above can learn the truth from another channel, so as not to listen to and believe partially, so that Battalion Commander Chen will be wronged." I really can't stay in the army, and the door is open for me to work together. ”

"Thank you, Sister Huang!" Chen Zhengxin arched his hand to Huang Bamei, and at this time, his depression was truly resolved, the so-called no one is left here, there is a place to stay, and it is not that Qin Zhenyuan can't live without him.

Laughing happily all the way, the road also went fast, and returned to Lin'an in the evening. Sure enough, as Chen Zhengxin expected, the telegram from the 176th Division of Huizhou had arrived in Lin'an, and Chen Zhengxin was dismissed from his post as commander of the first battalion of the 1055th Regiment, guarded by the guard platoon of the 1055th Regiment, and handed over to the military court in Huizhou for handling.

At the same time, Mo Wei received a telegram from the 526th Brigade, asking him to lead his troops to withdraw to Huizhou early tomorrow morning.

Li Benyi also received a telegram from the 171st Division, ordering him to withdraw to Huizhou with the Mo Enemy Division and reorganize.

Huang Bamei asked Xie Yousheng to set up a table of send-off wine and celebration wine in Lin'an early, invited Mo Di and Huang Tianhua to the banquet, and invited the Xu brothers to accompany him, as for the main family, the husband and wife who accompanied Xie Yousheng were Zhu Jinkui.

At the banquet, Huang Bamei formally proposed to Mo Di that Xu Le should stay in Lin'an to help her, her reason was very good, as soon as the national army left, leaving Lin'an Huzhou as a blank area, the top priority was to quickly expand the Jiangnan Advance Brigade of the Loyal and Righteous National Salvation Army, and deal with the Japanese on this land.

Mo Di smiled and said, "As long as Xu Le agrees, he has no opinion." ”

The old cat's Xie Yousheng said with a smile: "Mo Tuanzuo still sent a sentence, Xu Le came out with you, even if he has this intention, he can't open this mouth." ”

Mo Di smiled: "Deputy Commander Huang is really a master, he just went out with Xu Le for three days, and then he kidnapped people." ”

"That's what I thought." Huang Bamei also said with a smile: "The two brothers of the Xu family are working together in your group, which is not appropriate. Although it is said that fighting tiger brothers and going into battle is father and son, but it is still a sentence, eggs cannot be put in the same basket, Sir Mo, don't you say? ”

When Mo Di heard this, he nodded very seriously and said: "It's that I didn't think it through, in fact, China has had this rule since ancient times, two out of one, I will take you two brothers out to be soldiers, strictly speaking, it's not right." Deputy Commander Huang is right, I agree that Xu Le will create another world with you. Don't underestimate Xu Le, he is not only good at fighting, but also a treasure, your loyal and righteous National Salvation Army can use Xu Le to get in touch with Huang Shaohong, chairman of Zhejiang Province, everyone is in the same vein of Guangxi, and Chairman Huang will look at you differently. ”

Huang Bamei and Xie Yousheng glanced at each other, they didn't expect that Huang Shaohong, chairman of Zhejiang Province, was from Guangxi, they knew, but they didn't expect that the hometown concept of Guangxi people was so strong, no wonder the Gui family could be its own system, so it was.

"I have to find a reason, how can I put Xu Le here?" Mo Di said to himself.

"It's easy." Xu Le on the side couldn't help but interject and said: "Let's just say that I was injured in the battle and can't be transferred with the army, so I can only stay here to recuperate and temporarily leave the army, as for what to do after recuperating from my injuries, that's another matter." When the time comes, let the military commander ask for someone from the 21st Group Army, I don't believe that Li Pinxian will not give it. ”

"Hehehehehe!" Mo Di laughed and said, "It seems that the intention to leave has been made up for a long time, and even the reason is so sufficient." ”

The crowd laughed.

Zhu Jinkui was the last to come to the banquet, and as soon as he came in, he handed Huang Bamei a telegram draft, Huang Bamei smiled when she saw it, and said to Xu Le: "Shangfeng called, saying that they were going to find a way to transfer Battalion Commander Chen Zhengxin to us." ”

Mo Di hurriedly asked what was going on, Xu Lecai told Mo Di about Chen Zhengxin, and put forward his own opinion, and asked Chen Zhengxin to replace him as the commander of the spear company, Mo Di shook his head and said: "This Qin Zhenyuan, knowing that he can't fight, really didn't know that he was so good at playing with his heart." After a pause, she said to Huang Bamei: "Don't get Long Wangshu, if you get Xu Le, you should be satisfied, this Chen Zhengxin, let him go to the brigade commander's gun company as a company commander." ”

Xu Le smiled and glanced at Huang Bamei without anyone noticing, Huang Bamei couldn't hide the smugness on her face, raised her wine glass to Zhu Jinkui, and pretended to punish the latecomer with three glasses.

On the contrary, Xu Ping saw the abnormality of the three of them, and gently asked Xu Le what he was proud of. Xu Le whispered to Xu Ping that there was no matter of Zhu Jinkui's telegram report at all, and he just said it specifically for Mo Di, the purpose was to let Mo Di get Chen Zhengxin over, which was designed by Chen Zhengxin and the two of them on the way back to Lin'an. Xu Ping laughed and said, this Chen Zhengxin should be placed in the Loyal and Righteous National Salvation Army, with you three stinkers, definitely more than Zhuge Liang, you can go, even the boss dares to fool.

After listening to Xu Ping's words, Xu Le was dumbfounded, yes, if he could keep Chen Zhengxin, it would really be like a tiger. was wrong, wrong, fell for Chen Zhengxin, and gave him a gun for nothing, but he didn't make a penny cheap.
