"Brigade commander, just let the division commander know the itinerary, and in the middle of the night, we sent a telegram to the division commander, saying that our camp was attacked by a large number of bandits." Man Liang said.

When several regiment commanders heard this, their eyes also lit up.

One of the regiment commanders said: "In this way, we will be able to arrive in Qinghe County a few days late, and Division Commander Zeng will not be able to blame us." ”

"When the time comes, as soon as Senior Commander Zeng asks why the bandits are attacking us, we will say that the devil may have bought the bandits in advance.

Let them intercept us, so that we can't rush to Qinghe County in time to help. Another regiment leader also laughed.

"And a few days later, Qinghe County was lost, and we were sending a telegram saying that in order to avenge the defenders of Qinghe County, we deliberately exterminated all the bandits, so that we not only passed, but also meritorious." Man Liang said with a smile.

In this way, it is difficult for Master Zeng to trouble them.

After all, a large number of bandits attacked them and delayed their support, and they could not be blamed for it.

On the contrary, they exterminated the bandits and avenged the defenders of Qinghe County, and it stands to reason that Commander Zeng had to reward them.

"Hahaha......... You guys, you don't have any good stuff. Zhao Kun laughed.

"It's all taught by the brigade commander." Man Liang and several regiment leaders also laughed.

"Then what are you waiting for, let the correspondent send a telegram."

"Yes!"

………

At night, around eight o'clock, Baoding City Headquarters.

Division Commander Zeng looked at Zhao Kun's intelligence and breathed a sigh of relief, "There is still one day to rush to Qinghe County, it seems that my threat is also somewhat useful." ”

"Commander, I think this Zhao Kun may not have a good heart." Said a middle-aged man in his forties, who is the chief of staff.

"Oh? Zhao Kundu is almost in Qinghe County, he won't play tricks, right? Master Zeng wondered.

"I can't say for sure, although you have already spoken, but it's hard to guarantee that Zhao Kun won't think of other ways to delay.

When the time came, Zhao Kun found an excuse to delay for a few days, and Regiment Leader Feng estimated that he would have died early. The chief of staff said.

Now the situation in Qinghe County is critical, and a delay of a day may cause huge losses, let alone a few days.

"But the problem is, Zhao Kun shouldn't be able to find an excuse." Senior Commander Zeng frowned, he thought that Zhao Kun had other ways to delay time.

"I don't know, but I always feel that Zhao Kun won't be so happy to support Qinghe County." said the chief of staff.

It's not that he wants to suspect Zhao Kun, but that Zhao Kun is not trustworthy at all, after all, Zhao Kun is secretly someone else's subordinate.

"Now there is no other way than to believe in Zhao Kun, we are too far away from Qinghe County, and it is completely too late in time." Master Zeng said.

If he could quickly support Qinghe County, he would not send Zhao Kun, after all, Zhao Kun was always an outsider.

"That's what I said, now it's best to hope that Zhao Kun will find out his conscience and go to support Qinghe County as soon as possible, otherwise, Captain Feng, it's dangerous." said the chief of staff.

Master Zeng lit a cigarette and looked irritable.

"Senior Commander Zeng, can't you let Regiment Commander Feng retreat? It doesn't make much sense to stick to Qinghe County. The chief of staff said.

In his opinion, Qinghe County is lost if it is lost, it is just a small county town, and there is no need to put his life on the line.

"I also want him to retreat, but you don't know his temper, let him give up the county town to the devil, he would rather die

Moreover, Feng Shao sent a telegram today that the people of Qinghe County have begun to retreat, and it is expected that they will all be evacuated tomorrow afternoon.

It is even more impossible for him to retreat, once he retreats, if the devil catches up with the people of Qinghe County, it will be another massacre.

Feng Shao would not watch the people die in front of him. Master Zeng shook his head.

"Alas, Regiment Commander Feng is a real soldier." The chief of staff sighed lightly.

"Forget it, I'll tell him the news that Zhao Kun is about to arrive in Qinghe County." As he spoke, Division Commander Zeng called the signal soldiers to come in and asked the signal soldiers to send a telegram to Feng Shao.

After the communication soldiers left, Division Commander Zeng said: "You go back to rest first, just leave it to me here, I feel that Zhao Kun may send a telegram tonight, I want to see what tricks he wants to play!" ”

"Teacher, it's better for you to go and rest, my body can still bear it." said the chief of staff.

"Needless to say, hurry back." Division Commander Zeng waved his hand and asked the chief of staff to leave.

………

Qinghe County, Command Building.

Feng Shao looked at Commander Zeng's telegram and fell into deep thought.

The above content is actually that Zhao Kun will arrive in Qinghe County one day.

"Could it be that I blamed Zhao Kun by mistake? In fact, Zhao Kun still has a bit of national righteousness in his heart? Feng Shao muttered.

After a while, he denied this idea again, he always felt that Zhao Kun would not come, how could a person like Zhao Kun who was greedy for life and afraid of death come to die.

National righteousness? Maybe in Zhao Kun's eyes, national righteousness is not as important as money.

"Regardless of whether Zhao Kun comes or not, the most important thing I should do now is to deal with the situation in the city." Feng Shao said.

If Zhao Kun comes, it will be easy to do, if Zhao Kun does not come, then he has no choice but to defend Qinghe County.

At this moment, Chief of Staff Sun entered the office at the time.

"Commander, most of the grain in the city has been purchased from the people and piled up in the warehouse." Staff Officer Sun said.

In these years, many people will store food at home, just in case.

And the people of Qinghe County were no exception, the people retreated, and the grain could not be taken away, so Feng Shao had to pay for the grain to buy it and pile it up in the warehouse.

"Well, it's good, after the people have retreated, they will burn the grain! Can't be left to the little devils! Feng Shao's eyes lit up and said.

Qinghe County can't hold it, but the grain, the devil doesn't want to get a grain!

"Understood!" Chief of Staff Sun nodded.

"Let's go and rest first, get up early tomorrow, and continue to organize the people to retreat." Feng Shao asked Chief of Staff Sun to rest.

After all, Chief of Staff Sun has also been very tired in the past two days, and he doesn't want the devil to come yet, and the chief of staff will be tired first.

………

At night, around twelve o'clock, at the foot of the flat-topped mountain.

In the tent.

Zhao Kun and several regiment leaders were playing mahjong.

"Thirty thousand."

"Bump!"

"Two cylinders."

"It's confused, hahaha, give money and give money, don't talk nonsense." Zhao Kun laughed.

"Brigade commander, your luck is too good, you have won several times in a row." Man Liang said with a smile.

Several other regiment leaders were also complimenting Zhao Kun.

"Come on, come on, take advantage of the hour to play a few handfuls." Zhao Kun said with a smile.

"Regiment Commander, it's already twelve o'clock, it's not early, we should send a telegram to Senior Commander Zeng." Man Liang reminded.

When Zhao Kun heard this, he hurriedly looked at his watch, patted his head, and said, "It's twelve o'clock so soon?" Hurry up and have someone send a telegram to Commander Zeng. ”

"Yes."
