Chapter 157: The Art of War (2)
Zhang Jiatian led his troops to rush back, and when he arrived halfway, he learned that his base camp had been attacked by Lei Yiming's army.
His team is currently divided, he has a part with him, and a part is stationed in the base camp. The part of the garrison was attacked at night, and was beaten by the mine-level soldiers and scattered and fled.
Although Man Shanhong has been on the battlefield several times in Suiyuan and seen the world a few times, he is still young after all, and at this time, he is so angry that he wants to lead the troops to kill the generals. Zhang Jiatian grabbed her back collar as usual - since he took Man Shanhong to Suiyuan, every time he fought, he had to drag Man Shanhong's back collar two or three times. Otherwise, her legs were too fast for him to take care of, and she might have run to kill somewhere.
Zhang Jiatian bypassed the base camp and went straight to the arsenal ten miles away from the base camp - his grain, grass and weapons were left in the base camp, and some of them were also left in the arsenal, just to prevent the base camp from suddenly being attacked and falling. Now it was good that his preparations were not in vain, the cavalry got on their horses, the infantry spread their legs, and they galloped through the night, running like mad to the arsenal.
When they arrived at the area of the arsenal, they stabilized their spirits, the sappers began to dig trenches to arrange the defense line, and the rest of the people were anxious to rest and eat, and the heavy machine guns and howitzers stored in the arsenal were all pushed out, Zhang Jiatian was about to counterattack, and a group of soldiers suddenly ran on the front position, and he looked at them and found that they were actually his telegraph squad.
The soldiers of the telegraph squad did not have to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, and last night when they saw that the situation was not good, they immediately fled with radio and other objects
out. Now that they heard that Zhang Jiatian, the deputy commander-in-chief, had regained a foothold in this place, they hurried over - the escape did not delay their work, they received a telegram from Suiyuan in the middle of the night, and when they saw Zhang Jiatian, they handed the telegram first: "Report to the deputy commander-in-chief, this is an urgent telegram sent to you by the commander-in-chief." β
Zhang Jiatian took the translated telegram and lowered his head to read it. Man Shanhong came over, because he didn't know a few big characters, so he asked him, "What did it say?"
Zhang Jiatian replied: "He asked us not to have a head-on conflict with Lei Yiming first, his side is almost over, and he will come over soon." β
"When he comes, let's beat the thunder again?"
Zhang Jiatian shook his head: "Then he didn't say it." Then he lowered his voice and told Man Shanhong: "He was not idle in Suiyuan, he recruited a lot of soldiers, and he must have gotten a lot of good things." When he arrived, I thought I'd talk to him. β
Man Shanhong said again: "But we have already fired, and his telegram is too late!"
Zhang Jiatian thought for a while, didn't answer again, but walked to the soldiers of the telegraph squad and asked them to quickly set up the machine and send a reply message to Hong Xiaojiu for himself.
In the afternoon of the same day, Zhang Jiatian sent a staff officer of his subordinates.
The staff officer set off on horseback, walked all the way through ten miles of country roads, and came to Lei Yiming.
Lei Yiming occupied Zhang Jiatian's base camp, and the staff officer walked into the headquarters with ease under the aim of several pistols, and then through a large table, he saw Lei Yiming.
Lei Yiming sat on a hardwood chair, which was the whole seat
The most decent and sturdy chair in the barracks was previously used exclusively by Zhang Jiatian. In order to show respect for the deputy commander-in-chief, the orderly put a new straw cushion on top of the chair. Zhang Jiatian doesn't have a hobby of lying down from morning to night, and sits on this chair every day to deal with military affairs, so although the color of the cushion is quite new, it has been sat out of two dimples on his buttocks. Now that Lei Yiming came, he also sat on the chair, looked up at the staff officer, and he spoke: "What is the matter with Zhang Jiatian looking for me?"
The staff officer replied: "Our deputy commander-in-chief wants to make peace with you. β
Lei Yiming sat on the straw mat, his two buttocks pressed into the two pits, and sat "tightly", which made him feel a little disgusted for no reason, so he couldn't help but move: "Bomb my special train into scrap metal, and don't see him to make peace; That's what your deputy commander-in-chief did?"
The staff officer was silent for a moment, and then continued: "Marshal Lei entered Henan this time, and as far as we know, he only brought less than two divisions, which is about the same as our current strength. If you keep fighting, we'll run away, and you won't be able to chase us to the edge of the sky. β
Lei Yiming nodded: "Yes, so what?"
"To tell you the truth, our deputy commander-in-chief hasn't seen the military salary for two months in a row, and our money is ...... It's all sent down from Nanjing, and if we run away as soon as we go to the battlefield, then no one will pay us military salaries in the future, but if we fight, we can't afford to fight......"
The staff officer said it in a rambling manner, but what he said was indeed the truth, so Lei Yiming
I examined him carefully for a long time, but I didn't see any flaws.
"So, what our deputy commander-in-chief means, you don't fight, we won't fight either, let's stop fighting first!"
Lei Yiming asked: "Then until when will the war be stopped? Stop until you are going to come with military salaries, eat and drink enough, and beat us to death, and then fight?"
"No, no, that's definitely not, our deputy commander-in-chief doesn't mean that, he's ......"
Lei Yiming leaned over and pulled out the straw mat under his buttocks and threw it aside, and then sat down again: "You go back, let your deputy commander understand the lie, and then come and tell me." β
The staff officer hurried back to Zhang Jiatian at night and made a report.
The next day, the staff officer rode off again, this time standing in front of Lei Yiming, and he said: "Our deputy commander-in-chief said that he wants to meet with you. β
Lei Yiming shook his head directly: "No." β
The staff officer hit a nail and had to retreat. He left, and Lei Yiming sat in the command headquarters, waiting for news from the scouts in front. Zhang Jiatian is still too young, playing tricks and tricks, like a child lying hard, so that adults can see it, be angry and laugh. Anyone in this world, including Hong Xiaojiu, could sit down and negotiate with him, but Zhang Jiatian couldn't, because he killed him twice. This kid didn't die, it was his life that was great, not his own mercy.
Therefore, Zhang Jiatian sent people over to "make peace" with him in such a fake way, and he was really naΓ―ve to get home. He suspected that Zhang Jiatian was planning another surprise attack, wanting to take advantage of his unpreparedness and fight a ruthless battle. But as the staff officer he sent said, both sides
The strength is evenly matched, and if there is a real fight, it is impossible to talk about who is afraid of whom.
Pushing Zhang Jiatian out of his heart, Lei Yiming turned his head to look at the blue sky outside the window, and simply didn't think of the red mountains. The weather is really good, you should go out for a walk, take a walk, it is good for your health, health must be taken seriously, he can't die, whoever dies he can't die, he's afraid. Since Ye Chunhao was pregnant with his child, he was even more afraid, the more beautiful the world was, the more terrible death was.
Just when he was out of his mind, Su Bingjun walked in: "Report." β
Lei Yiming turned his gaze to him.
Su Bingjun looked a little hesitant: "Handsome, ......"
Lei Yiming didn't speak, and waited patiently for his next step.
Su Bingjun continued: "There's a child out there who wants to see you." β
Lei Yiming was stunned: "Child?
Su Bingjun was inexplicably asked by his words: "Whose child ...... That doesn't know. β
"Then what are you looking for me for?"
Su Bingjun reacted, and he wanted to laugh a little: "Dashuai, it's strange that he didn't make his words clear." There was a man outside, who looked like he was still a child, and he said that he was the younger brother of his wife, and that he wanted to see you when he heard that you were here. The guards outside heard that he didn't seem to be able to make up ordinary children, so they detained him. I'm here to ask the commander to show me, do you want to see him in person?"
Lei Yiming pressed his hands on the table, recalled, and finally remembered: Ye Chunhao has a half-brother, and he is also a little brother.
So he spoke: "Bring the boy in, and I'll see him." β
Su Bingjun took the order and left, and within a moment, put it
Hanako was brought into the headquarters.
Lei Yiming was waiting with great interest, but now when he saw this little Hanako, he subconsciously dodged back - this little Hanako was dressed in a tattered shirt, the sleeves and trousers were scattered into strips of cloth, and the exposed arms were purely two dry bones, and the bones were covered with a layer of black skin, connected with two big hands like claws. The arms are dry bones, the legs are about the same thickness as the reed sticks, there are no shoes, and the bare feet are dirty and the toes cannot be distinguished. Lei Yiming looked up and looked at his face again - no face, all covered by long hair.
Such a living thing, no human appearance, no expression, no eyes, just stood trembling in front of Lei Yiming, thanks to his two reed stick-like legs that could still support his body and head. Lei Yiming took out a handkerchief from his trouser pocket, blocked his nose, and said to Su Bingjun angrily: "Take him out to wash it, and let him come to see me when it's clean." β
Su Bingjun agreed and led the living creature out. Lei Yiming waited for more than half an hour, and Su Bingjun came back, this time, he brought Lei Yiming a bald soldier - the long hair of the living creature was really incorrigible, so Su Bingjun simply asked people to shave his hair to the roots. Then he brought out soap and hot water, and he didn't care whether this thing was alive or dead, so he called a few soldiers to roll up his sleeves and throw him into the bucket, and rubbed him without saying anything. After rubbing and looking, Su Bingjun found that his judgment was good, this person was indeed a child, but he was already at the end of his childhood, because of his slender body, he had grown up in the direction of a young man.
A few buckets of cold water poured down,
The soldiers washed the boy clean and put on a military uniform and cloth shoes. Su Bingjun sent him to Lei Yiming, and then retreated to the door very familiarly. Lei Yiming finally saw his face clearly this time - at first sight, he was taken aback, because although this child is thin and has sharp beak monkey cheeks, just looking at his eyebrows and eyes, his eyebrows are clear and beautiful, and he really looks like Ye Chunhao.
This kid has no rules, and he doesn't salute when he sees him, so he just stands with his head hanging down, with no expression on his face, as if he is waiting to die. So Lei Yiming opened his mouth first: "You say, you are my wife's younger brother?"
The boy nodded deeply.
Lei Yiming asked again: "Tell me first, what's your name?"
The child made a mosquito-like sound: "Ye Wenjian." β
"What's your sister's name?"
"Ye Chun is good. β
"Who am I?"
The child's voice became lower and lower, obviously afraid: "Lei Dashuai." β
Lei Duli looked at him suspiciously: "Your sister's maiden family, isn't there no one?"
Ye Wenjian lowered his head and stopped talking, and after a long while, he muttered, "I'm the only one left." β
