48. To Nanjing
"Where did Camp Chief Chen know?"
Chen Xiu opened his mouth, is it really that Zhou Wen? No, shouldn't it be called Zhou Weiguo? Then smiled bitterly, "I'm sorry, I just heard from a friend, I don't know, does Camp Chief Zhou have a fiancΓ©e in Nanjing Girls' School?" β
At this time, Zhou Wen's face had completely sunk, he didn't expect that his details would be investigated so clearly, "Are you a member of the military commander?" β
"No, no, no, Camp Commander Zhou, don't get me wrong." Chen Xiu hurriedly shook his head, "Camp Commander Zhou, take a step to speak." Chen Xiu just wanted to confirm whether this person was the person he thought.
Zhou Wen nodded, and then followed Chen Xiu to the side.
"Camp Chief Zhou, I can't hide it, I just heard from a friend that he had a contemporary, excellent grades, and later went to Germany to study, and then had a fiancΓ©e in Nanjing." Chen Xiu hurriedly explained, "So, this is why I am so reckless, please forgive me." β
Zhou Wen nodded, his face looked better.
"However, I want to give Camp Chief Zhou a suggestion, Nanjing can't hold it, Camp Chief Zhou must prepare early, devils, maybe he will slaughter the city, even if he doesn't slaughter the city, a girl in the occupied area will not be pleased." Chen Xiu really didn't want to see a tragedy happen.
"What did Battalion Commander Chen say, Nanjing has our party-state army, how can it not be held?" Zhou Wen said coldly.
Chen Xiu didn't know what to say, "Shanghai, do we have 800,000 troops?" Isn't it the same and didn't hold it? What's more, Nanjing is the national capital, and the Japanese have to fight it. I just don't want accidents to happen, so I have this suggestion, which is also a good intention. β
Zhou Wen nodded, was silent for a while, and felt that Chen Xiu's words made some sense, "Thank you Camp Commander Chen." β
"Eh, you're welcome." Chen Xiu hurriedly spoke, "Camp Commander Zhou, you and I hit it off at first sight, if you don't dislike it, how about you and my brothers?" β
Zhou Wen had a smile on his face, "Okay, I'm 24 this year." β
"I'm 18 years old." Chen Xiu silently exploded his age, "Brother Zhou! β
"Hahaha!" Zhou Wen laughed, "Brother Chen! "At this time, this brother word is just a kind word, and Zhou Wen can't be called Brother Chen Xiu.
Chen Xiu was happy, "Please!" β
"Let's go!"
So, the two of them returned to the place where the main army was located.
At this time, Yao Cannon and they also returned with loot.
"Artillery, half of the spoils of war are given to the brothers of the separate battalion." Chen Xiu opened his mouth, this battle, after all, was not fought by their Tiger Camp alone.
"Huh? All right. Looking at Chen Xiu's eyes, Yao Cannon gave in.
Zhou Wen naturally took it without politeness, and then the two troops went north together, and for this reason, Tang Hu also ordered someone to free a horse to come out for Zhou Wen.
The baggage of a brigade still needs to be transported by horses.
Zhou Wen is not polite, he is not the kind of person who is too pedantic.
The more Chen Xiu chatted with Zhou Wen, the more he felt that this was different from the Zhou Wen he knew, was it just a coincidence? Chen Xiu could only guess so.
However, even if it is a coincidence, it is indeed too coincidental.
In Songhu, the 87th Division suffered heavy casualties, and although the troops would be repaired after arriving in Nanjing, their combat effectiveness would be somewhat reduced. From Zhou Wen's conversation, I learned that he was originally a battalion under a regiment, but as a result, their regiment was all wiped out, so they had their independent battalion.
"Brother Zhou can speak Japanese?" Chen Xiu was surprised, is it really?
"Not bad! When I was in middle school, my father wanted to send me to study in Japan, and then I studied for a while. Who expected the outbreak of the 918 incident, and then did not go. Zhou Wen nodded.
Chen Xiu also nodded, which made him sure that this person was not the Zhou Wen he imagined, but really a coincidence.
"Brother Chen studied in Japan, and his views on Japan should be very unique, I wonder if I can listen to Gao Zhi?"
"Don't dare to be high!" Chen Xiu spoke, "It's just that Japan is very small, at most there is a province of China, it is an island country, disasters are frequent, and it was knocked on the door by Britain and the United States in the last century, so the Meiji Restoration was carried out. However, the reform was not thorough, which led to the expansion of the Japanese military and national sovereignty, and the internal contradictions could not be reconciled, so they had to seek ways to expand outward. Moreover, the education of the Japanese people is mainly based on the emperor, and every Japanese citizen must be able to dedicate himself to the emperor! Moreover, at this time, the Japanese invaded our China, most of the soldiers were veterans, and their fighting quality was extremely high, just like the squadron just now, but more than 100 people, under the siege of nearly 1,000 people in our two battalions, only 70 or 80 corpses were left behind. Brother Zhou imagined how our army would react if it was ambushed by the Japanese like this. β
Zhou Wen nodded, "It's really terrifying, we can't compare, but we're not afraid either, because there are so many of us." β
"Therefore, the population, land, and resources of the devils are all factors restricting their development." Chen Xiu continued, and then discussed a lot with Zhou Wen.
It is also rare for him to meet a friend who is similar to a confidant, and the more they chat, the happier and more sympathetic they are.
β¦β¦
On November 11, the troops arrived in Suzhou.
On November 15, the troops arrived in Nanjing.
"Brother Chen, don't say goodbye! I need to go back and hand in the order first! Zhou Wen arched his hand at Chen Xiu.
"Brother Zhou, don't forget my advice to you! Move people as soon as possible! "Chen Xiu also gave up, Nanjing, it really can't be held.
"Okay, you stay quiet, I'll go and give orders." Tang Hu told some Di Feng and Chen Xiu about them, and then left with the guard battalion.
At this time, although the atmosphere in Nanjing was a little more serious, the people were still more optimistic, because Nanjing was the national capital, and in their opinion, the national army would not let their national capital fall, otherwise, what difference would it be from the death of the country?
What's more, Nanjing is the rich capital of the south. In ancient times, it was called Jinling and was one of the ancient capitals.
And Chen Xiu and the others also breathed a sigh of relief, and they could be regarded as a safe area.
β¦β¦
"The commander of the 15th Brigade of Du, Tang Hu has come to give the order! Our department has arrived in Nanjing today! β
"Hello sir!" The clerk saluted Tang Hu.
Tang Hu nodded, not knowing what his next appointment to the brigade would be.
"The Nanjing Garrison Headquarters ordered your department, and immediately cooperate with Chen Xiu, the commander of the Huben Battalion, to select a site to build a steel plant and an arsenal after resting!"
"What!" Tang Hu couldn't believe his ears, what the hell was this order! "Show me!"
Tang Hu snatched the document, and after reading it, his face was gloomy, "What is this little bastard doing!" β
As a soldier, Tang Hu is proud to be on the battlefield! What's more, in this battle, the performance of their independent brigade is remarkable, and there is no reason for them to be transferred to the rear! Moreover, the state is like this, is it possible to let their separate brigades retreat?
That's impossible!
"Little brother, I took this document, I'll go find our commander!"
"Sir, please!"
Afterwards, Tang Hu quickly went to find Chen Xiu, "You little bastard, what are you doing!" Tang Hu threw a piece of paper on Chen Xiu's face.
Chen Xiu didn't know why, took the document, then looked at it, his eyes widened, he just wanted to say,, this speed is so fast! This is going to let him build an arsenal? The equipment hasn't arrived yet!
Looking at Tang Hu's expression, Chen Xiu knew why Tang Hu was angry, as a soldier, Tang Hu was qualified, at least, he was never afraid to fight.
Now, let Tang Hu take his men to the rear to build an arsenal? How can he Tang Hu stand this!
"Brigade seat, this is, the order of the command, you look for me, I can't help it." Chen Xiu looked at the seal and said helplessly, he didn't expect that Chen Yifu would get things done so quickly. However, looking at this order, Leo must have agreed to his conditions, then, he only has to wait for equipment and people.
But equipment and people can't wait, there must be a house, there is no house, there is no factory to let the equipment go, where do people live?
"You!" Tang Hu was really angry and wanted to go crazy, "Thinking of me Tang Laohu, it can be regarded as a prestige, but it was planted in the hands of your little child!" β
"Father-in-law, the military industry of a country is far more important than this 15th Brigade!" Chen Xiu opened his mouth and was scolded by Tang Hu, he was not happy, and it was not his order!
