Ren Laifeng stayed at the headquarters of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region for one night, formed a friendship with the commander, and got a group photo with the inscription of Commander Nie as he wished.

Ren Laifeng was just passing by, he still had to go back to the northeast, Qinggang County still had his troops, and his guerrillas. To put it mildly, there are still hundreds of thousands of Kwantung Army in the Northeast waiting for him to fight!

Commander Nie also knew that it was impossible for Ren Laifeng to stay in Jinchaji for a long time. After staying for one night, the next morning, he told Ren Laifeng that the Chongqing side had been informed about his plane crash and his safe landing in Jinchaji. If Ren Laifeng wanted to leave, Commander Nie could send troops to escort him out of the Great Wall at any time!

The Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei border region includes Hebei, Shanxi, and Chahar, of which most of Chahar Province is connected to Outer Mongolia outside the Great Wall. Commander Nie sent troops to escort Ren Laifeng, and the people were also operating in their own jurisdiction.

Originally, Commander Nie wanted to send someone to escort Ren Laifeng to Heilongjiang Province all the time, but Ren Laifeng politely refused. The pressure of the Japanese invaders faced by the Jinchaji is not small, and there is no need to increase the burden on others. Ren Laifeng only asked the Eighth Route Army to send him across the Great Wall, no matter which way he went, as long as he crossed the Great Wall, he could walk the rest of the way by himself.

Since Ren Laifeng said so, Commander Nie was not reluctant. A company of soldiers was called over as an escort force, and Ren Laifeng and his party were escorted to the Great Wall along the way. The company commander's surname is Chu, and he has been a soldier for ten years, and he is an old Eighth Road.

The co-pilot of the crashed plane was left in Jinchaji because of his serious injuries, and Commander Nie promised to send the best doctor to treat this person. Although Dr. Bethune passed away, the assistants and nurses who followed him back then have all grown into experts who can take charge of their own affairs.

In fact, even if Ren Laifeng didn't say anything, Commander Nie would go all out to save this pilot. Pilots, this is a high-end talent! If there are no planes in the base area now, who can guarantee that there will be no in the future? It is serious to prepare talents for a rainy day, and when there is a plane in the future, it will not only be used as an ornament.

As for the two flight attendants, they followed the troops out of the customs and went to the northeast. Ren Laifeng found that Huang Tian and Yao Wenlong and several young cadres love to make do with these two beautiful girls when they have nothing to do. No matter who he can do in the end, anyway, the fat and water don't flow into the fields of outsiders, and beautiful women are also resources, of course he won't throw these two girls halfway.

The two flight attendants have no position, so let them follow them, where do they dare not follow? He's a general. From the moment they got on the plane, the fate of the two of them was inseparable from the anti-Japanese guerrillas in the Northeast.

Ren Laifeng was quite safe on the way north, except for rushing and resting, he had not been in contact with the enemy once for several days. Whether it's a devil or a puppet army, they haven't ever met it.

Company Commander Chu was quite familiar with the terrain in this area, and he knew where it was safe and where there was a water source. Where the troops stopped to rest, there were either small rivers or villages not far away. It is very convenient to drink water and eat.

The shadow of the Great Wall appeared on the mountain beam in front of him, and Ren Laifeng knew that he had reached the foot of the Great Wall!

The exit route chosen by Commander Chu is not the first time Ren Laifeng has gone out of the Great Wall, but it is also a sparsely populated place. Didn't Ren Laifeng say it, as long as he was escorted out of the Great Wall, the Eighth Route Army strictly abided by its promise.

After crossing the Great Wall, Company Commander Chu asked Ren Laifeng: "General Ren, do you want us to continue to escort forward?" Commander Nie has orders, as long as you need it, we will obey the order at any time. Wherever you let us go, we'll escort you! ”

Sure enough, he is a well-known and kind person! Ren Laifeng has a new understanding of the general's kindness, but he doesn't intend to receive Commander Nie's favor. While it's certainly a little better to have an escort in terms of security, it also adds an extra layer of restraint. Besides, people are familiar with the south side of the Great Wall, and they are also familiar with the north side of the Great Wall?

If you don't have familiarity with the terrain, it's better to have more people than to have fewer people, and it's convenient to have fewer people. When Ren Laifeng enters the customs, he can swagger through the Shanhaiguan, which is the advantage of fewer people. If there is one more company of soldiers of the Eighth Route Army, it is estimated that he has not yet approached Shanhaiguan, and the devil will surround him halfway!

"I understand Company Commander Chu's kindness, let's just walk the rest of the way ourselves. I will not forget Commander Nie's kindness, and I will trouble Company Commander Chu to go back and tell the commander, saying that I Ren Laifeng remembers his favor. Let him take care of his health and win more battles! ”

"Salute!" With the command of Company Commander Chu, more than 100 officers and soldiers of the Eighth Route Army escort company saluted at the same time. Ren Laifeng and the officers and men of the Northeast Guerrilla Force raised their hands in return.

Seeing the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army walking farther and farther, Ren Laifeng turned to look at the north, "Let's go!" In Qinggang County, far north, there are countless comrades-in-arms waiting for his early return.

When you go south, you can still ride a horse, but when you go north, you don't even have a horse. Originally, the Military Commission meant to let the First Theater solve the problem of transportation, but didn't the plane fall halfway to the Jinchaji base area of the Eighth Route Army? General Nie has already helped him, and Ren Laifeng is naturally not good at asking for horses again.

The conditions of the Eighth Route Army are not good, this is known to everyone. You want dozens of horses, in case no one else has them, isn't it a net embarrassment for Commander Nie. Let's go, let's see what means of transportation we can use, and if not, we can use two legs. If you are a soldier, are you not afraid of death or walking?

When passing through the town, I bought two small donkeys, and bought two carts and two donkey carts. Although Ren Laifeng is rich, the town is too small, and these two donkeys were rescued from the chef of the donkey meat restaurant. He wanted to buy two big mules, and he had to sell them.

The luggage was put on the donkey cart, and it was much easier to walk. Just those two flight attendants couldn't do it, they had blisters on their feet before they crossed the Great Wall, and they walked with a limp. Now that there is a donkey cart, Ren Laifeng let the two of them squeeze into a donkey cart without saying a word. Without these two oil bottles with weak legs, the speed of walking is much faster.

Donkeys are easy to buy, but you can't buy too much. If you form a team, it will look just as dazzling. Besides, the speed of the donkey cart is also slow, and it is estimated that it will take a month to take this to Qinggang County, right? Ren Laifeng wanted to find a faster means of transportation. Animal-powered vehicles are not good, and it is better to replace them with motor vehicles.

With this thought in mind, Ren Laifeng began to pay attention to the rut marks on the road. There are almost no car wheel prints on this road, and most of them are animal-powered vehicles such as donkey carts and horse-drawn carts. I heard that the front is Jianping County, and Ren Laifeng is full of hope for this county seat in the north.
