Chapter Seven: Man Jianghong (2b)

For a whole morning, Zhang Songling didn't have a chance to sleep. Many soldiers of the second company, including veterans of several special service regiments, tacitly ran to his hiding bunker one after another, either with a smile on his face to ask him about when he would evacuate, or like the company commander Liao Wenhua, he took out a few pieces of white and yellow paper with body temperature from his pocket and asked him to write a few auspicious words, as if those words really had the magic power to make bullets go around.

This made Zhang Songling feel depressed, not only for the superstition of the brothers, but also for the deep fear in the eyes of the brothers. They were afraid, they didn't have any confidence in defeating or destroying the little devils in front of them. Although each of them knows that at the moment the number of Chinese troops near Niangzi Pass is six times that of the Japanese devils, and there are reinforcements constantly rushing here from Taiyuan, from Henan, and even from Sichuan.

"You're afraid of a ball!" When Han Jinjin, the leader of the second platoon, took advantage of the convenience of the building near the water and quietly spread out a ball of "riding cloth" in front of him, Zhang Songling's patience finally reached the limit, grabbed the soft object and threw it out of the trench, "You are a soldier, what can protect you is the rifle and big knife in your hand, not this rotten thing." If this thing can work, our ancestors will put one on each person's head at that time, and the Manchurian cavalry will not be able to enter the Central Plains! Get out of here, if you dare to bring this kind of thing to bother me, I'll just withdraw you! ”

"Withdraw, withdraw, who is rare!" I didn't expect the usually amiable deputy company commander to be angry, Han Jinjin was stunned, the cat bent down and turned around and walked out, muttering in his mouth as he walked, "Who do you think loves to be this big-headed platoon leader?!" I can't get a few more dollars in salary, and I have to put my head on the belt of my pants every time I charge......"

"You stop me, what do you say, you will say it again!" When Zhang Songling heard this, he became more and more angry, bent down to chase out of the cover, and reached out to pull the other party's neck collar.

Han Jinjin obviously didn't have enough respect for his deputy company commander, so he quickly turned around, making Zhang Songling's big hand fall short. Then he grabbed his steel helmet and slammed it on the ground, "I can't say that this big head platoon is long, who wants to be whom!" Why is it that every time you are promoted and rewarded, it is you who have backers behind you who come first. Together, I should be a stepping stone for you! What's so great about reading a lot and reading a lot? If I hadn't been poor when I was a child, I would have gone to the Central Military Academy, and this time around, I would be scolding, and you should listen to it! ”

"You, you ......" Zhang Songling's eyes turned black with anger, and he reached out to touch the box cannon on his waist. Several other platoon commanders and squad leaders who were alarmed saw it, and hurriedly rushed forward and hugged his shoulders tightly, "Company commander, company commander, you dissipate your anger, dissipate your anger, don't be like Lao Han." He is a good person, but he has a donkey mouth and is talking nonsense all day long. If he could control that mouth, he would be more than a platoon commander by now! ”

After persuading Zhang Songling, everyone hurriedly persuaded Han to progress, "Old Han, don't apologize to Company Commander Zhang soon." The credit of our company commander Zhang is all exchanged for his head, and everyone sees it in their eyes. If you're not convinced, try killing a little devil squadron leader another day, if you don't have that ability, don't pretend to be a big-tailed eagle here! ”

The moment he saw Zhang Songling stretching out his hand to touch the gun, Han Jinjin already regretted it. Although there is no such thing as being shot for confronting his boss in the military law, if Zhang Xiaopang gives himself a shuttle for the crime of disturbing the morale of the army, I am afraid that no one will investigate this person's fault in the future. But to give in to Zhang Xiaopang in front of so many brothers, Han Jinjin felt a little unable to get off the stage, after all, this conflict was provoked by the other party first, and he just begged him for a few words like others, if he didn't want to write, he would just refuse directly, why should he put an officer so that he couldn't get off the stage?!

"Old Han, old Han!" Seeing that there were more and more people around, Feng Baoshan, the deputy of the second platoon, hurriedly increased his persuasion, "Is it so difficult to apologize!" You also met our company commander Zhang, he has a lot of adults, and he will definitely not bother with you. If someone else is replaced and a shot hits you, can you still have a place to shout grievances?! Don't be stubborn, apologize quickly! Do you think our second platoon is not eye-catching enough, so we have to alarm the battalion commander and regiment commander? ”

Hearing Feng Baoshan mention the battalion commander Gong Ziqiang and the regiment commander Lao Gou, Han Jinjin finally lowered his head unwillingly. Zhang Xiaopang is young and has little qualifications, and he is only a company deputy, so it doesn't matter if he offends him, maybe he will be appreciated by Company Commander Liao because of this. But if you recruit both the battalion commander and the head of the Gou regiment, it will be worth the loss. Those two people can appreciate the little fat man very much, especially the head of the group, who simply protects the little fat man as his own son.

"I'm sorry, it's my cheap mouth, company commander, you have a lot, forgive me once!" With a gnat-like voice, Han Jinjin apologized to Zhang Songling, and then quickly found a reason for his own behavior, "I actually don't believe in that thing very much, I just think that it is better to have one more insurance than one less." Besides, from Peking to the present, our Chinese side has not won a single victory. Even if you occasionally take a small advantage, you will soon have to spit it back to the Japanese! ”

This is the crux of everyone's fear. They are not afraid of death, but they are afraid of being worthless. From the moment of the 77 Incident, in almost every battle, the Chinese side has an absolute advantage in numbers, but the little devils have been marching all the way, defeating the legendary 29th Army that is brave and good at fighting, and defeating the 52nd Army that is fully equipped with German weapons.

Zhang Songling could not explain to everyone the difficult problem of why the Chinese army always lost battles, and he did not have the cheekiness to describe repeated defeats as a smooth transition and lure the enemy into depth. At this moment, concrete actions are better than any rhetoric. Breaking the arm that was wrapped around his body, he slowly took out a box cannon, buckled the insurance, and pressed it into Han Jinjin's hand, "I don't believe that a few words written on a woman's riding cloth can give you one more chance to live." If you think that will give you peace of mind, I can write it to you! ....... any of you"

Turning his face suddenly, he swept his gaze over each of the brothers who came to see the excitement, "If you think that if I can write a few words so that a bullet can't hit you, I can write it for you." Don't hide it, while the little devil hasn't come up yet, I'll openly set up a stall here to write for you! ”

"But I believe in this thing more!" Pointing to the box cannon in Han Jinjin's hand, he continued to add loudly, "Platoon Commander Han is tired from fighting, and he will supervise the battle in the back later." In this battle, I will directly lead our second platoon to fight. When it was time to fight a counter-charge, I was the first to go up. When it was time to retreat towards the second line of trenches, I was the last to go. If I can't do it, Platoon Commander Han will use this box cannon to bang me. Everyone will testify to him when the time comes, I asked him to do it! If he was scolded because he was greedy for life and afraid of death, I would never complain! ”

"Company commander!" Han Jinjin finally sensed that the box cannon was hot, and handed it back with a red face, "I was wrong, I really know that I was wrong." I was cheap just now, but I can't talk brains, you have a lot of adults, spare me this time, I am sure that I will never dare to contradict you again! ”

"Don't forgive!" Zhang Songling shook his head with a smile, "There's nothing wrong with you." I was promoted too quickly. Not as old as any of you! So I'm going to be a platoon commander for you this time, and let everyone see with their eyes whether I, the company deputy, was rewarded by the top or earned it myself. ”

"I know it's wrong, I really know it's wrong, can't I do it for you?!" Han Jinjin was afraid and regretful, holding the box cannon, and gave it up again and again. "If the battalion commander knew that I had usurped your power, he wouldn't have beaten me to death! Don't be like me, I ......."

"I mean really, I'm going to take a soldier for you. As for you, you will honestly supervise the battle for me. This is what I forced you to do, Sensei said the battalion commander, the regiment commander knows, and I can't blame you! Zhang Songling smiled and continued to shake his head. That's it, if you really convince me, the deputy company commander, don't disobey my orders again! ”

After that, regardless of Han Jinjin, who was flushed, he turned around and walked back into the bunker, picked up the 38 big gayer and began to familiarize himself with the gun. The platoon commanders and squad leaders who left the second platoon looked at each other around Han Jinjin, and no one knew what to do.

After being embarrassed for a while, the deputy platoon commander Feng Bao proposed in a low voice: "Since Company Commander Zhang has said everything about this, let's stop being hypocritical!" Old Han, you will supervise the battle with a box cannon, and if anyone is greedy for life and afraid of death and embarrass our second platoon later, you will directly kill him. Lao Wang, your squad will follow the company commander, and you would rather take all the brothers in the class than let the little devil hurt our company commander! ”

"Hmm!" Everyone agreed in a low voice, and finally felt in their hearts that Company Commander Zhang, a scholar, really had a little bit of a different temperament from other readers.

The brothers who were in the excitement around saw everything that had just happened in their eyes, and they also had some admiration for the young Company Commander Zhang in their hearts. They originally respected Zhang Songling, to a large extent, because they respected the ink in Zhang Songling's stomach. After all, in this era, those who can finish high school are talents in the eyes of everyone, and high school graduates are really rare. But now, they began to respect Company Commander Zhang's bravery and decisiveness, and began to really associate him with the legendary hero who followed Lao Gou's regiment commander to attack the devil's artillery position and killed several devil officers with his own hands.

When the first round of bombs fell from the sky, everyone firmly believed that the legends about Xiao Zhang's company commander were not deliberately made up in order to create opportunities for him to be promoted and make a fortune. The entire walnut orchard trembled with the roar of the plane's engine and the explosion of the bomb, but Company Commander Xiao Zhang squatted quietly in the bunker, neither frightened to lie on the ground and dare not move, nor desperately covered his ears. It was as if he had been blown up many times, and he was as steady as Mount Tai in the face of imminent death.
