Chapter 117: Avoiding Disaster
With the continuous sound of explosions in the direction of Xiangshi Port, Xie Dong took two guards to the position of the first company.
The position of the first company was on a small hill, the longitudinal length was only about 150 meters, and at this time the top of the small hill was already full of trenches.
In an anti-artillery hole in the trench, Xie Dong found Liu Erga, the commander of a company.
"Battalion commander, why are you here?"
Xie Dong said in a deep voice: "News has just come from the regiment that the Fourteenth Army of the Silver Wolf Empire should land directly from Xiangshi Port.
The position of our battalion was located in the first line of defense to the east, just in the direction of Xiangshi Harbor. ”
Liu Erga said indifferently: "Battalion commander, it's not like we haven't done anything with the wolf clansmen, as long as the large-caliber shells of their warships can't fall on our positions, I'm not afraid of them!" ”
Xie Dong said: "We are more than ten kilometers away from the shore and in the nearest direction, and with the current shooting accuracy of large-caliber naval guns, we should not be able to eat the shells of large-caliber naval guns."
However, I heard that the 14th Army of the Silver Wolf Empire is equipped with a lot of large-caliber howitzers, so you have to be mentally prepared for this.
In addition, there are many recruits in your company, facing a full group army of the Silver Wolf Empire, this battle will definitely be very hard, if there are deserters, you must not be soft! ”
Liu Erga hesitated for a moment before nodding firmly, "I understand, and I have made it clear to my brothers."
If we really have brothers who escape, don't blame me for Liu Erga's black hands. ”
"The position that our battalion is responsible for defending this time is mainly on this small hill defended by your company, and this small hill is also a commanding height, and it is likely to be attacked by the enemy.
The third company will act as a reserve for your company, and there is no order to retreat, even if there is one person left in the position, you have to hold this small hill. ”
"Yes, Battalion Commander!"
"This time, the regiment gave our battalion some more machine guns, and I will ask the guard platoon to send you two heavy machine guns and four light machine guns for a company later.
In addition, two infantry squads will be drawn from the guard platoon and directly reinforced to your company. ”
In the Zhou family's army, the heavy machine gun refers to the German-34 general-purpose machine gun, and the light machine gun refers to the Czech ZB-26 light machine gun.
Liu Erga couldn't help but smile when he heard this, and said: "It's still the battalion commander's atmosphere!" We will never disgrace the battalion commander in a row! ”
"You can't lose the face of our Zhou Jiajun!"
"Yes! We will never lose the face of the Zhou family! ”
Xie Dong slapped Liu Erga's chest with his fist, "Erga, when you fight, be careful yourself, don't be stupid."
When you return to Ganyang City, Lao Tzu will invite you to Wanhualou to be chic! ”
Liu Erga said with a smile: "Don't worry, battalion commander, my life is big!"
What's more, I have become a company commander, and I have to live well for the military salary of 70 silver coins per month, as well as the battalion commander's meal of flower wine. ”
"Remember! To live! ”
Just when the 12 all-main gun battleships and 13 all-steel battleships of the Silver Wolf Imperial Navy began to shell Xiangshi Port with their main guns, Zhou Rui said to Liu Yiqiu with a wry smile: "Why did you come to Jingsheng City at this time?" ”
Liu Yiqiu smiled faintly, "Although you haven't used the eight-lift sedan chair to marry me, but since you have been engaged, I, Liu Yiqiu, am already the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family."
I felt that I should be by your side at this time, so I came over. ”
Originally, according to the agreement of the Zhou and Liu families, the day after tomorrow, that is, on February 28, the wedding of Zhou Rui and Liu Yiqiu would be held, but because of the war with the Silver Wolf Empire, the wedding date of Zhou Rui and Liu Yiqiu could only be postponed.
The outside world did not know that Zhou Rui had given the Zhou family's coastal defense fleet a new arsenal of 12 battleships with full main guns, 4 battle cruisers and 12 light cruisers in one go, which was equivalent to adding a hole card to the Zhou family that could turn the entire battle around.
Therefore, the newspapers in various parts of the Han and Tang Empires basically had a pessimistic view of the Zhou family's expeditionary force facing the Silver Wolf Empire this time.
And this pessimistic view has also affected many people, even the people around Zhou Rui.
Zhao Yan, a movie actress who was accepted as a concubine by Zhou Rui, learned that the Silver Wolf Empire had sent an expeditionary force to crusade against the Zhou family, and immediately left Ganyang City in a hurry in the name of filming a movie and rushed to Tiansheng City, the capital of the Han and Tang Empires.
However, according to the investigation of "Ghost Shadow", Zhao Yan has not received any good scripts and roles recently, and this time she went to Tiansheng City just to make a cameo appearance in a movie.
Obviously, Zhao Yan went to Tiansheng City this time more to "avoid trouble".
When Zhao Yan left Ganyang City, the Golden Lion Empire and the Red Tiger Empire had not yet forced the Silver Wolf Empire to agree not to attack Ganyang City, perhaps Zhao Yan thought it was not safe to stay in Ganyang City.
Husband and wife were originally birds of the same forest, and they flew separately when disaster came.
Zhou Rui didn't expect that one day this sentence would fall on his head.
In fact, for Zhao Yan, a movie actress who took the initiative to send to the door, Zhou Rui was more obsessed with her appearance and body.
If you want to talk about feelings, you can't say that there is none, after all, you will have feelings over time.
This time Zhao Yan chose to leave Ganyang City alone, Zhou Rui must have felt uncomfortable, but it was just uncomfortable.
Women, even stunning beauties, for the current Zhou Rui, as long as they want, they are almost at their fingertips.
Even if Zhao Yan wanted to leave him completely, Zhou Rui wouldn't care too much.
Of course, because Zhao Yan has been accepted as a concubine, it is impossible for Zhou Rui to ignore Zhao Yan.
Zhou Rui had already ordered the "ghost shadow" to monitor Zhao Yan's whereabouts twenty-four hours a day, and immediately brought Zhao Yan back to Ganyang City after ending this war with the Silver Wolf Empire.
If you want to leave the Zhou family, you can.
But you have to take the letter of resignation and leave!
As for Chu Yingying, another concubine from a movie star, she honestly stayed in the Zhou Mansion to continue to raise a baby.
After Chinese New Year's Eve, Chu Yingying was found to be pregnant.
According to the "Ghost Shadow" report, before Zhao Yan left, she tried to persuade Chu Yingying to go to Tiansheng City to live for a while, but Chu Yingying refused Zhao Yan on the grounds that she was pregnant and should not stay away.
Zhou Rui shook his head and said: "Others can't wait to stay away from our Zhou family now, it's good for you to take the initiative to run to Jingsheng City."
Jingsheng City will soon become a battlefield, don't you know how dangerous it is to come to Jingsheng City at this time? ”
Liu Yiqiu's mouth outlined a beautiful arc, "Marry a chicken with a chicken, marry a dog with a dog, it is precisely because Jingsheng City is about to become a battlefield that I came to accompany you."
Anyway, if you want to die, you will die together, and I don't want to live the rest of my life under the name of a 'widow'. ”
If it weren't for the fact that there were bodyguards such as Xiong Da, Niu Ben, and Xiang Tao in the room, Zhou Rui couldn't wait to immediately take Liu Yiqiu into his arms.
It is a blessing for a man to have a woman who is willing to live and die with you!
Only a woman like Liu Yiqiu is worthy of being the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family in Ganyang!
"Yiqiu, don't worry, an expeditionary force of the Silver Wolf Empire can't help my Ganyang Zhou family!"
Then Zhou Rui told Liu Yiqiu about adding 12 battleships with all main guns, 4 battle cruisers and 12 light cruisers to the coastal defense fleet.
"At present, the coastal defense fleet has as many as 18 battleships with all main guns and 7 battlecruisers, and if it can seize the fighters, it may not be without hope of winning the naval battle.
As long as the naval battle can be won, the Fourteenth Army of the Silver Wolf Empire will not have to worry. ”
Liu Yiqiu asked with some surprise: "I really want to know, where did you get so many warships, especially the battleships with all main guns?" ”
"Hehe, I'll tell you when I get into the bed at night."
Liu Yiqiu couldn't help but roll her eyes, "I'll tell you, we haven't visited the church yet!" You can't mess around! ”
Then Liu Yiqiu hesitated for a moment and asked, "If we can really defeat the expeditionary force of the Silver Wolf Empire, will the Silver Wolf Empire send a second expeditionary force over?" ”
Zhou Rui said with relief: "As long as our Zhou family can show strong strength, presumably the Silver Wolf Empire will not really fight our Zhou family to the end, after all, the Silver Wolf Empire still has to take into account the threat of other beast countries." ”
In fact, Zhou Rui was just comforting Liu Yiqiu with these words, and even Zhou Rui himself didn't know how far this war with the Silver Wolf Empire would develop.
If the Silver Wolf Empire really has to destroy the Zhou family, then Zhou Rui can only give everything he has and fight with the Silver Wolf Empire to the end.
"For Zhao Yan, what are you going to do?"
"The Silver Wolf Empire Expeditionary Force has arrived in the waters outside Xiangshi Harbor, and the battle to defend Xiangshi Island is about to begin, and I don't have the energy to think about her little now.
It's going to rain, my mother is going to get married, let her go! ”
"Ahh
Zhao Yan, who was sitting on the sofa in the luxury suite of the hotel, suddenly sneezed, and Zhao Yan was staying in a hotel in Xiushui City, Fengwu Town.
"Miss, do you have a cold? Do you need to see a doctor? A chubby middle-aged woman asked Zhao Yan respectfully.
The chubby middle-aged woman's name was Zou Dan and she was Zhao Yan's work assistant.
Zhao Yan sighed and asked, "Sister Dan, you said that I left Ganyang City at this time, is it really good?" ”
"Miss, the Ganyang Zhou family is facing the Silver Wolf Empire this time, even if the Ganyang Zhou family now captures Linxing City and Tonghui City in Zhenwei Town, it will be difficult to escape the fate of destruction in the end.
If the young lady continues to stay in Ganyang City, she is just one more martyr, and it will not help at all. ”
"But after all, I have committed myself to Zhou Rui, and when I left at this time, I always felt sorry for him in my heart."
"Miss, why don't you go and beg the master after returning to the Heavenly Saint City this time.
Maybe with the power of the embroidery table, Zhou Rui's life can be saved in the end. ”
Zhao Yan's face showed a trace of bitterness, "Sister Dan, it's not like you don't know how bad the relationship between me and my father is.
He has long since severed the father-daughter relationship with me because of my filming.
Besides, he only has the royal family in his heart, and the wise emperor, His Majesty, it is impossible to expect him to use the power of the embroidery table to save Zhou Rui in private. ”
Zou Dan hesitated for a moment and said, "Miss, the master actually cares about you very much."
This time, the old man also sent someone to send a message to ask the young lady to leave Ganyang City as soon as possible. ”
Zhao Yan was stunned for a moment, and then asked with some surprise: "Sister Dan, you didn't lie to me?"
Did my father really send a message to let me leave Ganyang City? ”
"Miss, you also know that I also have a position at the embroidery table.
The lord gave me an order through the embroidery desk branch in Ganyang City, asking me to persuade the young lady to leave Ganyang City as soon as possible. ”
"Sister Dan, inform me, we will continue to set off tomorrow, and I will rush back to Heavenly Saint City as soon as possible."
