Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Transition to Shanghai (4)
Xu Yongchang saw that the atmosphere was a little sluggish, and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, my soldiers on the battlefield of Beijing and Tianjin should thank you very much, if you hadn't learned in advance of the Japanese army's attempt to electrify the whole army, and annihilated the Japanese army in Taihang, I don't know what will become worse in this battle, and how many more people will die on the battlefield." ”
Bai Fei said politely: "General Xu's words are serious, the cause of resistance against Japan, the Chinese people are everyone's responsibility, I just did something I could, and the battle of Taihang Mountain to annihilate the Japanese army, thanks to the cooperation of the 691st Regiment and the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army, we are just doing our best." ”
Xu Yongchang said with a smile: "You don't have to be humble, I still know a little about the actual situation." He paused, "By the way, I heard that you are preparing to go south to fight?" ”
Bai Fei nodded and said: "Yes, I heard that the situation in Shanghai is dangerous, and the special command department is ready to go to the war, but this place is more than 2,000 miles away from Shanghai, if you don't take the train, I am afraid that you will not be able to arrive as soon as possible, and you are currently having a headache about boarding the train..."
Xu Yongchang showed a slightly regretful expression on his face, and he said, "Originally, I wanted to treat you to a meal and thank you... Since you're going to Shanghai to fight, don't hesitate... The cause of the Anti-Japanese War has a long way to go, and I hope you will go to Shanghai to take care of yourself, stay useful, and make more contributions to the Anti-Japanese War. ”
"Thank you General Xu for your concern and encouragement, the matter of eating, I will personally feast the general next time we meet, now the situation is urgent, if it is not appropriate to eat and drink at this time, won't it become 'tight in front, tight in the rear'." Bai Fei could feel Xu Yongchang's love for him, so he also joked.
Xu Yongchang laughed: "I didn't expect you Bai Fei to be so powerful in addition to fighting." Forget it, I'd better send you away quickly, and stay any longer, I don't know what you're going to be arranged..."
Xu Yongchang acted vigorously and immediately ordered an adjutant to handle the matters of all the 001st Regiment of the National Protector Army boarding the car and heading south. Bai Fei was not idle, and ordered Li Hu to go back and inform the troops to enter the city and go to the railway station. After a while, the adjutant came back to report that the matter was done and that he was ready to board the car. At this time, Wang Weiguo and others also entered the city with the team, and Bai Fei resigned to Xu Yongchang.
"Thank you General Xu for your help, if we meet next time, I will definitely have a good banquet for the general, as an atonement."
Xu Yongchang said: "You go, take care, I'm waiting to eat your atonement banquet." ”
Bai Fei thought for a while and said: "General Xu, if Hebei can't hold it, it's better to negotiate with the rear as soon as possible and strive to withdraw the army to Xuzhou, don't pin your hopes on Han Fuyu." ”
When Xu Yongchang heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, and he looked thoughtful, not knowing what he was thinking.
……
Let's say that Bai Fei went down the city wall to catch up with the troops, and found that there were many more people in the team. Wang Weiguo stepped forward and said: "Tuanzao, just now we only recruited more than 200 people due to time urgency, and now we have a total of more than 400 people. ”
Bai Fei said: "That's all for the time being, let's wait until we get to Shanghai." ”
The group quickly got on the train, and with the rumbling sound of the train, they embarked on the journey south.
It's not just a day. During this period, Bai Fei will just recruit the ' The recruits were reorganized, of which the sniper team was expanded to 30 people, the special combat team was expanded to 50 people, the dumb man was officially appointed as a quartermaster, responsible for distributing weapons and ammunition through Bai Fei's orders, etc., Bai Fei also transferred 20 to him from the old man as his assistants and subordinates, and the rest of the personnel were assigned to Wang Weiguo and Li Shuyang's squads, because the number was sufficient, the two squads were each changed to companies, and platoons were set up below the company, and squads were set up below the platoon.
In addition to restoring the regularity of the establishment, Bai Fei also changed the uniforms of the units of various units.
First of all, the "Pearl" grenade, 4 tubes per person in the whole army were enough. Individual weapons, new recruits to the sniper team are each given an SVD plus 100 rounds of ammunition. The recruits of the special operations team were issued with additional AK47s and 300 rounds of ammunition, while the other two companies were not issued with individual weapons. It's not that he is unwilling, but he calculates that the consumption of merit is too large, so he postpones the allocation of weapons for their individual soldiers. But at the same time, he also strengthened the firepower of the two companies, and each of them was issued with 10 RPGs and a Gatling M134 machine gun.
As for the dozens of people who had previously used RPG-7 in the Taihang Mountain battlefield, they were separately deployed as artillery and could be used as fire support in wartime.
On this day, the train traveled to Zheng County (Zhengzhou), where the Protector Army got off the train and transferred to the eastbound train to continue to Shanghai, while Zhang Yueqing and Mr. Song, as well as more than a dozen people who had been on the mountain and a few soldiers who had not recovered from their wounds, were left behind. I went to Shanghai to fight hard with the devils, so it was naturally inconvenient to walk with them.
Zhang Yueqing was naturally reluctant in every way, and Bai Fei stayed with her alone for a long time, so he appeased her.
Previously, a batch of valuable gold and silver dollars from the Japanese army was seized in the Taihang Mountain, and Bai Fei ordered people to take out 10,000 silver dollars from them and carry them with the army for emergency purposes, and the rest were all handed over to Mr. Song for safekeeping. In order to avoid accidents, Bai Fei equipped the more than 20 people left behind with Toms submachine guns and enough bullets and grenades to ensure the safety of them and Jin.
Before leaving, Bai Fei handed Mr. Song a list, all of which were the names of the Protector Army soldiers who died in the battle of Taihang Mountain, Bai Fei said: "These sacrificed people, their families are all in the vicinity of Zheng County, Henan, I promised them to send the pension to their relatives, please be sure to help me do this here." ”
Mr. Song nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely handle this matter." ”
Bai Fei said again: "After the matter is done, you can go directly to Wuhan and wait for me to find you there." ”
The Protector Army transferred from Zhengzhou to the east, turned south through Xuzhou, passed through Nanjing, Zhenjiang, Wuxi, Suzhou, and finally stopped at Nanxiang Station on the outskirts of Shanghai. At this time, the smell of blood in the air was strong and suffocating, and the station was busy inside and outside, groups of troops coming from all directions were loaded and pulled to the front line, and another car was loaded and dragged to the front line, and another car was carried to the rear of the wounded officers and soldiers of the Manchurian Army, and those who helped carry the wounded were all fifteen or sixteen-year-old girls in Shanghai.
Bai Fei took people out of the car, and as soon as his feet stepped on the ground, an electronic voice suddenly sounded in his head: "The host completes the task and rewards 7,000 merits, please keep up the host." ”
Today, October 1st, arrive four days early, reward 5,000 plus an additional 500 per day, a total of 7,000 merits.
"Please note that the system task is posted! Please note that the system task is posted! ”
Bai Fei was stunned, there is another task?
But he listened to the electronic voice and continued: "Taking November 5th as the timeline, if the host stays in Shanghai for one more day, the host will receive an additional reward of 10,000 meritorious points every day. If the host withdraws from Shanghai before November 5, the system will be closed for three months, and 100,000 merit points will be deducted. ”
Bai Fei is no longer able to complain about the unfair punishment of the system. It's just that he didn't understand why the system set the deadline of November 5th, and while racking his brains, he suddenly heard someone on the other side shouting: "Which part of you are from?" ”
