Throwing off the big stride and going out for a few hundred steps, he couldn't see anyone anymore when he turned around, and Ren Laifeng breathed a sigh of relief. put down the shelf, and returned to the barracks with a relaxed pace and Huang Tian talking and laughing.

Zhou Lin had already been discharged from the hospital ahead of schedule, and Ren Laifeng naturally praised and encouraged the battalion staff officer who had been rescued from the ghost gate again. With Zhou Lin's age, experience and education, it is quite rare to be able to show no weakness and never compromise in the face of the Japanese bayonets, which fully meets the criteria of being a warrior of the Anti-Japanese War. Ren Laifeng made no secret of his admiration and admiration for Zhou Lin.

Listening to Zhou Lin tell the experience of the bloody battle in Jining again, Ren Laifeng added a little more understanding of the situation of the Japanese puppet army in Jining. Next, the battalion commander Ren ordered all officers and soldiers of the Flying Tiger Battalion to stop all vacations, and the troops entered a state of emergency mobilization.

Go to the logistics department of the group army to receive food, ammunition, supplies and equipment, and notify the soldiers who have been on leave to return to the team. As for those who are wounded, sick, and have difficulty moving, then they can only be unfortunately excluded from the list of battles. Ren Laifeng organized the troops to hold a pre-war mobilization meeting, educated the troops with bloody facts, and fully mobilized the hatred of the officers and men of the battalion for the Japanese invaders and their yearning for battle.

It's all done in one day. Ren Laifeng returned to the army on the 11th, and on the 12th, the Flying Tiger Battalion drove to the bank of the canal and prepared to cross the canal eastward.

On February 12, 1938, Ren Laifeng met the commander of the 22nd Division of the 12th Army west of the canal. The 22nd Division was ordered by Sun Tongxuan to send reinforcements to the Flying Tiger Battalion, and at the same time, they were also the main force of the Third Army to attack Jining City.

Ren Laifeng is a young officer raised by Sun Tongxuan, and Shi Tongran is a fierce general under Commander-in-Chief Sun, and the meeting between the two can be said to be a meeting between the new lineage and the old lineage. This was the first time they met, and Shi Tongran was certainly surprised by Ren Laifeng's youth, and Ren Laifeng was also surprised by Shi Tongran's toughness.

"The commander of the time has a good demeanor, and the lowly Flying Tiger Battalion is allowed to see the wind." Ren Laifeng stood up and saluted, with a solemn expression.

"Ren Battalion Commander is so young that he can lead the elite Flying Tiger Battalion to win many victories, and he is worthy of being the rising star of the Third Army, and our Northwest Army also has successors. Mr. Sun really has good eyesight! This complimentary praised Sun Tongxuan as well, so that Ren Laifeng couldn't open his mouth if he wanted to say something modest.

"Hehe, you don't have to be restrained as the battalion commander, I was a straight gut when I was old, and I always liked to speak straight, if you don't get used to hearing any sentence, I didn't say it!" Shi Tongran blinked a pair of small eyes and looked at Ren Laifeng with a sly expression.

Can you say that this kind of two-ended blockage is still a straight rectum? What if it's not a rectum? Ren Laifeng was quite unimpressed by Shi Tongran's words. He knew that there was no one who could mix with the division commander level in these years, and at this time, if he really did what he said, he would be able to be an infantry company commander at most.

"Commander Shi is quick to speak, worthy of being the backbone general of our Northwest Army, and his humble position is full of comfort today." After flattering indiscriminately, Ren Laifeng hurriedly went down to business, "This time, on the orders of General Sun, he led the Flying Tiger Battalion to attack Jining, in fact, to make up for the mistake of the last time and rescue a batch of medicines that are extremely important to the group army. ”

"The last time it happened was half a month ago, and in such a short period of time, I'm afraid the Japanese in the city won't let their guard down. If I take advantage of the Japanese invaders to launch a surprise attack and forcibly retrieve the medicine, I am afraid that I will face a heavy encirclement by the Japanese invaders. Therefore, the key to this battle depends on whether the division commander can lead his troops to launch a siege campaign in a timely manner. ”

"This point can be relieved by the battalion commander, I don't dare to guarantee anything else, I have never missed a mistake in answering friendly troops on time and on time! Rest assured, how many devils can there be in the little Jining? Your Flying Tiger Battalion disrupted the Japanese army's defense with the front foot, and I led the whole division to launch a general attack with the back foot to ensure that the Flying Tiger Battalion would not be surrounded by devils into the city. Hehe, maybe our brothers and sons will work harder, and it is possible to take Jining down! ”

"That's a good idea! At that time, the division commander will be the hero of the Anti-Japanese War who regained the lost territory, and the people of the whole country will rejoice in the division commander's feat! ”

"If you really want to come to that time, will you be the battalion commander and a well-known hero of the Anti-Japanese War? Hahaha, with your Flying Tiger Camp here, let's do a good job of him in Jining! ”

The two of them praised each other for a while, and together they made a bold statement, and they promised that the 22nd Division would cross the river at 11 o'clock this evening, and strive to reach the city of Jining tomorrow. Ren Laifeng saluted and bid farewell, and led the 500 officers and men of the Flying Tiger Battalion to cross the canal from Dachanggou at 1 p.m. on the afternoon of the 12th.

Because I don't know if the devil has transferred or destroyed the batch of medicines, and he is worried about the life and death of the smoking gun, so after the troops crossed the canal, Ren Laifeng urged the troops to speed up the march! Theoretically, if you can reach Jining one step earlier, there will be more hope for the safety of smoking guns and medicines. Just for this faint hope, Ren Laifeng is willing to run no matter how tired he is.

"Battalion commander, don't you go with you, right?" While no one was paying attention, Huang Tian whispered to persuade Ren Laifeng.

"What are these words? Did you tell me to give up command and let the troops run to Jining on their own? Ren Laifeng glared at his guard and reprimanded his guard loudly.

Huang Tian was not afraid of his glare, "Don't forget your ankle, if you sprain again after walking too much, you will have to sit on a stretcher and command when you arrive in Jining." "Although in terms of position, one is a battalion commander and the other is a guard, and the status is very different. But on the other hand, Huang Tian is a doctor, Ren Laifeng is a sick number, isn't it natural for a doctor to teach a sick number?

In the face of the doctor who treats himself, I'm afraid that most people have to tolerate three points, right? But the wind is not biased! Don't forget the homonym of his name, people are crazy! Seeing that because of the high note he had just made, many officers and soldiers beside him were already looking this way, and Ren Laifeng suddenly became energetic. With his small waist straightened and his face raised, he put on a posture that I was not afraid of when the king of heaven came, and began to compete with his own guards.

"What ankle? A sprained ankle is also called an injury? It's just that if you lose a leg, Lao Tzu can still be a lame general! "When he said this, Ren Laifeng also forgot that he is only a battalion commander now, and he is still far from the general." Anti-Japanese devils, hum! I've never been left behind! No one wants me to leave my army, I want to be with my brethren at all times! ”

"Good! Well said the battalion commander! We will always be with the battalion commander! "There are speeches, and of course there are heckles. As soon as Ren Laifeng's words fell, a cheer sounded around him. Qin Junbao, the commander of the third company, took the lead in applauding, and the surrounding soldiers responded one after another. Ren Laifeng waved his hand even more proudly, as if he had become a general commanding thousands of troops.
