The old steamed bun smiled and said, "Got it." ”

At this time, a soldier from the communications office ran in and said, "Report! Division Commander, 22nd Division Commander Liao asked the division commander to provide more ammunition and supplies for the sake of old friends. ”

"Call back, the division commander is not here, and his whereabouts are unknown." Chen Fei said.

The communication warrior was stunned for a moment and immediately came back to his senses: "Yes." ”

Wang Liang took fishing gear, Sanmao carried a folding chair, and followed Chen Fei to the river.

For a while, the commanders of all units in the expeditionary force headquarters knew that Chen Fei had avoided it.

"Chief Chen, the vanguard is almost at the advance base, can you let Chen Fei give more supplies, so that we can be a little more relaxed in the next battle." A lieutenant general said to Commander Chen Cheng.

"Everyone wants to ask for more supplies, the U.S. military asked Chen Fei to distribute materials, then it will definitely be distributed according to the regulations, and now there are more people who want to fight Chen Fei's idea, can he not avoid it?" Chen Cheng said.

Seven or eight division commanders, army commanders all nodded yes, everyone is afraid of living a poor life, isn't the expeditionary force still able to eat enough and replenish weapons? On the contrary, it is the second thing to fight the little devils, and it is the same to fight there.

"Chen Fei is not a warlord, he is a soldier of the National Revolutionary Army, he has experienced a hundred battles, bloody battlefields, I don't understand any reason, don't bother him anymore, he knows better than anyone else, okay, that's it, end the meeting." After Chen Cheng finished speaking, he got up and left, and the generals saluted the commander.

As soon as Chen Cheng left the headquarters, he got into a carriage and rushed to Butterfly Valley.

Chen Fei was sitting by the river eating peanuts, and suddenly his left eye jumped, he rubbed his eyes, and thought to himself, which bastard was thinking about him again.

A few days later, the 38th Division in the Hukang River Valley area suddenly launched an attack on several strongholds of the devils on a stormy night, the first to fire was the American mountain artillery, and after 20 minutes of accurate artillery bombardment, the infantry began to advance.

Although the devil was taken by surprise, the situation was quickly stabilized, and the resistance was very tenacious, and the two regiments of the 38th Division only completed a small part of their respective goals, which surprised Master Sun.

Just as the front line was in full swing, Commander Chen Cheng rushed to Butterfly Valley.

"Division Commander, it's no good, Commander Chen is here." He Wenbin ran into the headquarters and shouted.

Chen Fei was just about to wash his feet and sleep, "Huh? Quick, quick, prepare hot food, prepare a place to sleep, go. Chen Fei got up and straightened his collar as he spoke, and went out to greet him.

"Commander!" Chen Fei immediately saluted when he saw Chen Cheng, and Chen Cheng raised his hand and said, "There are mountains of materials here, so you are not afraid of the Devil Air Force coming to attack you?" ”

"Oh, the U.S. military has set up some radars nearby, so I can know in advance that the devil is coming, and I heard that the pilots of the 14th Air Force are on duty in turn on the plane." Chen Fei said.

"Well, have all the supplies for the troops been distributed?" Chen Cheng said.

"It was distributed 24 hours a day, especially when the 38th Division carried another batch of grenades ten minutes ago." Chen Fei said.

"Okay, how many supplies are here?" Chen Cheng said.

"About three hundred tons, there are supplies coming in and going out every day, sir, please come here, go to the headquarters to rest, eat something, and report to work tomorrow." Chen Fei said.

"yes, okay." Chen Cheng replied.

Everyone entered the command headquarters, Chen Cheng waved his hand, and everyone left except Chen Fei.

"Chen Fei, the chairman of the committee asked me to bring a word, be loyal to my duties, and serve the country and the people." Chen Cheng looked at Chen Feidao.

Chen Fei smiled bitterly and replied: "Sir, I know, to be honest, I can give a little more material guarantee to the troops of the expeditionary force, but there are too many people who come to ask for it, you have more, he has more, in the end, I'm hey."

Chen Cheng smiled and immediately said: "Well, I know you understand, then I won't say more, I came to your place this time, mainly because I came to the formation, this counterattack, if I don't fight much, it will be difficult for me, the commander, to give an account to the chairman." ”

"The 38th Division attacked unfavorably, don't you know?" Chen Fei said.

"You know, I have a portable radio, Chen Fei, didn't you scout in the early stage? Our firepower is so good, Sun Liren's command ability is beyond doubt, why can't he take the Hukang River Valley area? Chen Cheng said.

"This, don't be in a hurry, this savage valley is high and dense, the devil has taken the lead, there are many light and dark bunkers, no matter how good the weapon is, it will take a few battles to play a role, and wait, Master Sun can find his way out of the battle by touching the wall a few times, don't worry, sir." Chen Fei said.

"Hey, I want you to be the first attack force, but considering that you are too hard and the resources are insufficient, but if the 38th Division attacks for a long time, it is unfavorable for you to go up, I will coordinate with the Americans, after all, the counteroffensive is a big deal, and the person in charge of this base is the United States, but it is not suitable for you, Chen Fei." Chen Cheng said.

"What about the 22nd Division?" Chen Fei asked.

"The 22nd Division followed the road construction troops to protect and remove obstacles for the engineering team, and their burden was even heavier, and the U.S. military meant that one division was not enough to increase the troops." Chen Cheng said.

"Oh," Chen Fei replied.

"Several other units were pinning down the Japanese army in all directions and supporting the 38th Division in the Hukang River valley area." Chen Cheng said again.

"Oh," Chen Fei replied.

Chen Cheng looked at Chen Fei and smiled: "If you have any ideas, just say it." ”

"I don't have any ideas" Chen Fei scratched his scalp, and just halfway through speaking, Lao Zhangtou knocked on the door and came in.

"Sir, Chief Chen, will you have something to eat?" Lao Zhangtou came in with a large pot of braised hare meat.

"Come, come, Chief Chen will eat some hot food first, and reconnoiter the hare caught by the battalion in the afternoon." Chen Fei immediately said.

Chen Cheng smiled, picked up the chopsticks, and ate them.

"Yo, yes, it's better than the chefs in Chongqing." Chen Cheng praised.

"Haha, Chief Chen, I, the head of the Quartermaster Department, am from a chef's background, and I have eaten the dishes he cooked, and I didn't say anything good." Chen Fei said with a smile.

"Hehe, sir, use it slowly." Lao Zhangtou put down his meal and went out.

"Well, yes, well, well, good." Chen Cheng said while eating. I guess I'm hungry.

The wind swept away, and a large pot of braised rabbit meat was eaten by Chen Cheng.

Chen Cheng took out a handkerchief and wiped his mouth.

"Chief Chen, if you don't take a rest first, you must be very tired from the long journey." Chen Fei said.

"Okay." Chen Cheng replied dryly.

He Wenbin came in and sent Chen Cheng to an independent military camp next to him to rest with Chen Fei. Chen Fei settled Chen Cheng and returned to the headquarters, he could feel in his heart how eager the Expeditionary Force Headquarters and the Chongqing Military Commission were to counterattack Burma, and how much they hoped for a victory.

Early the next morning, Chen Fei accompanied Chen Cheng to visit the defensive position of Butterfly Valley, and introduced Merrell and Chen Cheng to each other.

Chen Cheng stood on a hill, looked at the mountains of materials piled up in the valley, and said with emotion: "Chen Fei, how did so many materials come here?" ”

"Oh, most of them were brought in by oxen and horse-drawn carts, and some of them were airdropped." Chen Fei replied.

"Well, how do the troops get it?" Chen Cheng asked.

"With the US military's bill of lading, they are all written by the US military advisers of various units, and I will try to give as many as possible according to the required allocation, after all, they are all brother troops, and they will not see each other when they look up." Chen Fei said.

Chen Cheng nodded and said, "I also annoyed them enough before I came here, I said that Chen Fei understood in his heart, so everyone shut up." ”

"Thank you for your understanding, there are also hardships in humble positions." Chen Fei said awkwardly.

Chen Cheng shook his hand and said: "You just have a rod and scale in your heart, don't worry about anything else, with me, what are you afraid of!" ”

One sentence can be regarded as reassuring Chen Fei.

After a brief lunch at the headquarters in the afternoon, Chen Cheng proposed to go to the Hukang River Valley area.

"Huh? This is not good, sir, don't say that this road is not easy to walk, I don't know how many little devils' reconnaissance troops along the way, if something happens, I, Chen Fei, will not be able to escape the blame, sir, don't mention this matter again. Chen Fei hurriedly said.

"Haha, I, Chen Cheng, am not afraid of death." Chen Cheng laughed.

"No, no, I understand the commander's intentions, and urge the commander of the 38th Division Sun to make every effort to take the Hukang River Valley area, but this is too dangerous, and I, Chen Fei, will never be able to obey my fate." Chen Fei immediately said solemnly.

"Chen Fei, don't think that I am putting on a show, it is really the chairman of the committee who has given a death order, we must take the Hukang River Valley area, we need this victory." Chen Cheng also said seriously.

"No matter how much you need victory, you can't joke with the life of the commander, sir, it's only a matter of time before you take the Hukang River Valley area, Master Sun is a well-known fierce general, please rest assured, besides, isn't there still our independent division? When the time comes, we will take our lives to fill in the Hukang River valley area. Chen Fei replied.

Chen Cheng looked at Chen Fei, the two looked at each other, Chen Cheng nodded appreciatively, since Chen Fei had said everything about this, he couldn't insist any longer.

Chen Fei saw that Chen Cheng no longer insisted, and he also let go of his heart.

"Since I don't go to the front line, then I'll go back to India, in fact, this time, I still have a task, the chairman needs to know your current basic situation, seeing is believing, and some things are well known." Chen Cheng looked at the remade big sand table and said.

Chen Fei was shocked and said, "Sir, what is the principal to worry about?" ”

"Don't worry about it depends on how you understand, there are some questions, you can only figure it out by yourself, okay, I'm very satisfied with you, tomorrow morning, I'll go back, and next, I'll find a way to find a source of soldiers for you." Chen Cheng said.

"Then thank you so much, sir." Chen Fei stammered.

He was still confused by what Chen Cheng had just said.

This night, Chen Fei tossed and turned and never fell asleep, he thought to himself that he was desperate to kill the enemy, stationed in this barren mountain and wilderness, not for politics, no ideas, in the end the principal was still not at ease, but then he thought, no, the principal has always been good to himself, why bother to ask Chen Cheng to come on purpose.

After thinking about it, he thought that it was because of the position of base commander. Early the next morning, Chen Fei bid farewell to Chen Cheng and immediately summoned the commanders of the various units for a meeting.

As soon as everyone arrived, Chen Fei told you what Chen Cheng said yesterday.

"What do you mean? What kind of moth is Chairman Jiang coming out of again, is this distrusting us? Zhao Dadao got up and said loudly.

"Don't talk nonsense, it's not good to be heard." The old steamed bun said immediately.

"What's the matter, here are all brothers in life and death, what are you afraid of." Zhao Dadao said loudly again.

"Be careful that the wall has ears, and the trouble comes from the mouth, so you should be quiet." The old dog said immediately.

Zhao Dadao sat down, took out a cigarette, lowered his head and smoked.

"Commander, what do you think?" Zhu Guowen said.

Chen Fei smiled bitterly and said, "I really can't think of a reason, why don't you ask everyone to come over and think about it together." ”

"It's not that the chairman of the committee also takes a fancy to the supplies, or let's find a way to send some." Old Zhang Tou said.

", people will take a fancy to this thing, the Americans don't send it to us for the commission, it's just that we will deploy it." Zhao Liudao.

"Actually, I don't think it's complicated at all." Liu Xiaomei suddenly interjected.

The crowd looked at her, "Oh, really? Xiaomei, you talk about it. Chen Fei said with a smile.

"Division commander, when you received an appointment from the Americans, you didn't tell the commission, and second, you didn't get the consent of the commission, which means that you lack communication with the commission." Liu Xiaomei said.

"Yes, yes, as the saying goes, the eagle flies over and plucks the feather, this feather is a big feather, and it is enough for our division to become the best equipped division in the country, but this must be approved by the nodding of the commission, otherwise we have to secretly hide some weapons." Lao Zhangtou said immediately.

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and I want to say that this is the truth.

"Ahem, cough, cough," the old steamed bun coughed twice.

The crowd fell silent.

Although he believes that our division, including the division commander, is loyal to him, but so many materials can equip a few regiments, to be honest, any warlord will hide it privately. The main reason is that the commission doesn't want us to be bigger. The old steamed bun said.

"We are his descendants, even if we hide it privately, it will increase the strength of the commission, and no matter how strong our division is, it is only a division." Zhu Guowen said immediately.

"What you think is too simple, those in power, the troops, and politics must be absolutely controlled, but in addition to this, Chief Chen Cheng can say it, which shows that we don't have a big problem, and we will explain it when we have the opportunity, and it will be more and more descriptive to say it now." Old steamed bun said.

"Damn, I'm so fucking tired, I thought about it all night, I didn't figure it out, I was also carried away by such a big power, this position is really not a good thing, Wen Juan reminded me, hey" Chen Fei said helplessly.

"You have done a good job, but you are a little less crooked, eat a trench and grow wise, or you are a general, not a civil minister, ask Chief Chen Cheng to take a look, and it is also a reminder to you, otherwise you would have been asked to go back to Chongqing to report on your work." Old steamed bun said.

Things were basically clear, Chen Fei's mood was a terrible mess, he took out his cigarette and took a deep breath.

Everyone looked at Chen Fei, and everyone knew that this kind of thing could only be solved by the division commander himself.
