"Baby, are you really going?" Seeing Sai Hongfu packing up, Xu Rui couldn't help but persuade, "Your pregnancy reaction is so strong, I think it's better not to go, right?" ”

Since Sai Hongfu became pregnant, Xu Rui is really precious to her.

Even the title was changed, no longer calling Sai Hongfu Xiaobai, and began to call her baby very sensually.

Xiao Taohong helped Sai Hong to pack up, and at the same time followed the persuasion: "Sister, my uncle is right, you vomit when you eat now, you vomit when you eat, you have no strength all over, and you are tired even in the aisles. ”

Sai Hongfu shook her head and said, "Silly girl, sister is not going anywhere, I have to go." ”

Sai Hongfu knows her family's affairs, she is now the de facto head of the independent regiment, she doesn't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at her, if she doesn't go, others will definitely have to play right and wrong behind her back.

"Why do you have to go?" Little Pink immediately puffed out her cheeks and said, "I'll see who dares to chew the root of the tongue." ”

"Can you control the heavens and the earth and still control other people's mouths?" Saihong glanced at Xiao Taohong, and she didn't have a good airway.

"I'm ...... me" Xiao Taohong immediately became anxious, and said angrily, "Whoever dares to talk nonsense, I will let my uncle punish him." ”

"Yes, I'll punish him." Xu Rui said helpfully, "Who the hell dares to blow up with Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will lock him up." ”

When Sai Hongfu heard this, he immediately glanced at Xu Rui fiercely, and Xu Rui quickly slapped himself in the mouth and said, "Prenatal education, I burst into foul language again." ”

After speaking, Xu Rui came to Sai Hongfu again, gently rubbed Sai Hongfu's little belly that had not yet bulged, and said, "I'm sorry, little baby, Dad is foul again, palm mouth." ”

Seeing Xu Rui slapping his mouth there against his stomach, the corners of Sai Hongfu's mouth couldn't help but bloom with a sweet smile, the little peach on the side saw it, and the bun also showed a satisfied smile on his face, this pretty girl and Sai Hongfu are like sisters, for her, what Sai Hongfu has is what she has, there is no difference.

After the warmth and sweetness, it is time to go or to go, as the wife of the head of the regiment, she is especially able to lead by example.

Sai Hongfu then packed up, in fact, there is nothing to pack, just a pair of bows, a few changes of clothes, and some cosmetics or something, women are women, and they don't forget to dress up beautifully at any time, but then again, a naturally beautiful woman like Sai Hongfu is just as beautiful as she is not dressed up.

Almost at the same time, Erya was also silently packing up for Han Feng.

While cleaning up, tears fell from Erya's face.

Aunt Han walked in with breakfast and saw that the second girl was shedding tears, so she hurriedly came over to persuade her: "Don't cry, girl, be good, you can take your body with you now, don't cry." ”

The old people are still a little superstitious, thinking that if a woman cries all the time during pregnancy, the child born will have a bitter life, because it is soaked in tears, can she not die?

Erya quickly wiped away the tears on her cheeks, but she couldn't stop sobbing.

Seeing Erya sobbing silently there, Han Feng couldn't help but feel a little guilty, since Erya was pregnant, he had never been with her well, and he often heard the head of the regiment say there that pregnant women are the most fragile and need men to accompany them the most, but he really can't spare time to accompany her, all plus a piece, maybe three whole days.

At that moment, Han Feng said: "Erya, when this battle is over, I will definitely ask the captain for leave and stay at home with you until our little baby is born, okay?" ”

Erya sobbed and said, "Every time you say that, but every time you talk doesn't count." ”

"This time it's true." Han Feng said, "This time I must be a talker, definitely." ”

"Really?" Erya asked with a look of hope.

"Really." Han Feng replied seriously.

Erya burst into tears and laughed, and then while packing up for Han Feng, she began to look forward to the scene of Han Feng at home, in her heart, Erya's request was not too much at all, and it was even very humble, but for a military wife, even such a humble request could not be satisfied.

When Han Feng walked out of the courtyard with his bags on his back, "Bloodstained Style" was playing on the radio in the compound.

With the arrival of a large number of intellectuals, all the work in the base area began to be carried out rapidly, including the propaganda work of battlefield literature and art, and the poem "Blood-stained Style" that Xu Rui read on the battlefield radio during the last battle to defend Feicheng has been adapted into a song by the students of the Propaganda Department.

Every time a unit goes out, Liang Yixiao, an officer of the Propaganda Department, sings this song on the radio.

Liang Yixiao's voice is very beautiful, which makes this already touching song particularly touching.

Listening to the singing on the radio, and then thinking of the old mother and the complaining eyes of his wife when he left the house just now, Han Feng's nose was sour for no reason, and two lines of male tears fell.

At that moment, Han Feng also hummed softly.

Maybe I say goodbye and will never come back.

Do you understand? Do you understand?

Maybe I fell down and couldn't get up again.

Do you still want to look forward to it forever?

If so, don't be sad.

On the fluttering military flag, our blood-stained demeanor.

Maybe my eyes will never be able to open again.

Do you understand my silent feelings?

Maybe I'll sleep and never wake up again.

Do you believe that I have become a mountain?

If so, don't be sad.

In the soil of the motherland, there is our sincere love.

Until he disappeared at the end of the road, Han Feng didn't look back at his old mother and beloved wife.

At the gate of the small courtyard, Er Ya rubbed her bulging belly and said quietly: "Baby, when you grow up, you will also be a soldier, a good soldier like your father, and a man who stands up to the sky." ”

"Yes, be a soldier." Aunt Han continued, "Let's fight devils." ”

(Dividing Line)

When Xu Rui arrived at the station of the Independent Regiment, the 2nd Battalion, the 3rd Battalion, the Cavalry Battalion, the Engineer Battalion, and the 8 Reserve Battalions, with a total of 12 battalions of more than 6,000 people, had all been assembled.

In the darkness of the night, I saw more than 6,000 officers and soldiers standing solemnly on the playground, silent.

Although the night is dark, but by the light of the camp and the street lamp, Xu Rui can still clearly see the strict queue on the large playground, Xu Rui must admit that the combat effectiveness of the engineer battalion and the ten reserve battalions may not be very good, but the queue is still quite well drilled.

It has been nearly two months since the expansion of the independent regiment, but the battalions have always been scattered and trained separately before, and they have never gathered together, and the twelve battalions gathered together tonight is the first time that the independent regiment has assembled on such a large scale since the expansion, Xu Rui couldn't help but be a little excited after watching this battle.

In the blink of an eye, the old hen turned into a duck, and in the blink of an eye, the troops under his command had expanded to 10,000 people!

According to the establishment of the National Revolutionary Army, he Xu is now a proper division commander, and he is also a division of the three brigades and nine regiments, the same as the Central Military Academy Teaching Corps, of course, he is still a regiment commander in name, to paraphrase the words of the head of the military department, he is to expand the army to 100 battalions, and he is still the regiment commander.

Tonight is not a formal expedition, but just a move of defense, so Xu Rui did not plan to do any pre-war mobilization, just said a few words, and announced the start of the march, and the battalions immediately followed the predetermined order, one by one, Xu Rui and the direct team of the regiment headquarters and the wolf's tooth squadron finally pulled.

Until the last moment before the pull, Leng Tiefeng was still thinking about David.

"Lao Xu, when did David come back last time he called?" Leng Tiefeng asked.

Xu Rui said: "I have forgotten the exact date, but I remember that it was the end of July. ”

"It's over, this kid probably doesn't plan to come back." Leng Tiefeng said hesitantly, "What did I say, you shouldn't have brought him the one hundred taels of gold last time, this kid must have returned to the United States with gold." ”

David went to Shanghai in early May and took 30 taels of gold with him as a purchase fund before leaving.

This went for more than two months, and just when Xu Rui doubted whether David ran away with the gold, David finally consigned a batch of weapons and equipment from Shanghai, a total of 30 Mauser 98K carbines, with quadruple scopes, which was already an excellent sniper rifle at that time.

This batch of equipment was transported back to Dameishan through the CCP's underground communication line, because it had to pass through the territory of the four detachments in the middle, and as a result, Gao Hanting deducted ten branches.

After that, David sent a telegram asking Xu Rui to transport another batch of gold.

Because the 30 taels of gold that Xu Rui gave David before were left after buying 30 Mauser 98K carbines, if you want to buy a Gatling machine gun, you have to send money over.

Xu Rui passed through the CCP's underground communication line, and a guy brought 300 taels of gold to David!

According to the price of gold at that time, 300 taels of gold was equivalent to 10,000 US dollars, which was a huge amount of money.

As for the use of this batch of gold, Xu Rui asked David to hire an additional engineer who knows how to make steel in addition to still purchasing 30 Gatling machine guns, as long as David can find an engineer who knows how to make steel, then the remaining money after purchasing 30 Gatling machine guns will be all his payment.

Xu Rui is planning to build a steel mill in the Dameishan base area.

The Yankee soon sent a telegram back saying that he had found an engineer who knew how to make steel, an American, or a high-achieving student who graduated from MIT, but asked for a monthly salary of $100.

A monthly salary of $100 was definitely a lot of money at the time.

However, Xu Rui didn't think about it, he agreed to come down in one bite, and asked David to advance 3 taels from the 100 taels of gold, which was considered a deposit for the American engineer, and then two days later, David sent a telegram again, saying that the American had agreed, and the two had left to return to Dameishan, and they would arrive with the equipment at the end of July.

But now it's the beginning of August, and David still hasn't seen a shadow.
