Chapter 22 Zhenjiang

"Zhang Ziwen, are you crazy? Seeing that you are about to reach Zhenjiang, you still continue to march rapidly? ”

Wu Fatzi ran over to question Zhang Ziwen, because his horses were out of breath.

"You didn't see it on the road? It is estimated that the devil has already laid Danyang. ”

When passing by the Danyang line on the road, the villages along the way were robbed, and Zhang Ziwen saw three cases of slaughtering the village, and hastily buried the villagers, and then rushed to Zhenjiang.

"Then you don't have to rush like this, the beasts can't stand it, let alone people."

Zhang Ziwen looked at the brothers in the team, and no one had fallen yet, but they were all tired.

"It's only ten miles away, now it's a quarter past five, take a rest, you must set off at five thirty, and you must arrive at Zhenjiang City before dark."

It's not that Zhang Ziwen is in a hurry, but Danyang has fallen, and the battle of Zhenjiang is imminent, and these four or five hundred people have no ammunition and no rest, and there is only one word in the real fight, death. Only when we rush to Zhenjiang and everyone can rest and replenish ammunition and supplies, and after resting, will they be a good man again.

"Okay, let's leave on time at half-past five."

Wu Fatzi went over to stop the carriage, and Zhang Ziwen also stopped.

"Sun Liang, go tell everyone to rest for a quarter of an hour, and then set off."

"Yes, company commander."

With this orderly, Zhang Ziwen no longer has to shout by himself.

"Company Commander Zhang, I'm going to Zhenjiang soon, it's not good to go with you directly in front of the people of the 112th Division in a while."

Ma Qi touched it from behind, and Zhang Ziwen thought for a while before coming up with a solution.

"In this way, you go back and say that you go to the front to investigate, and then take the brothers who are willing to come to the front, enter the city in advance, wait for me at the city gate, and when our brothers from the 103rd Division enter the city, they will go with us, and I will drag the people of the 112th Division."

It was already dark when they entered the city, and they must go back to their respective homes to find their own mothers, Zhang Ziwen took the opportunity to delay the people of the 112th Division, as long as they were not intentional, no one would notice Ma Qi and them in the future.

"Okay, then I'll go back."

March quietly went back again, led the team out, rested for a while, and the brothers also eased up and began to get back on the road, Zhang Ziwen deliberately slowed everyone down on the way, so that March had enough time.

"Brother Wen, there is a sentry in front."

Xiaobao saw the team coming and hurriedly told Zhang Ziwen.

"Did you ask the commander if they arrived?"

Dai Zhiqi and the others should have arrived earlier than Zhang Ziwen, because Zhang Ziwen's march with these people was really slow.

"I asked, the division commander and they rushed to Zhenjiang at noon, and the specific location is not clear."

"March, did they go in?"

Zhang Ziwen asked quietly, Xiaobao gave him a gesture and said to go in, and Zhang Ziwen relaxed a little.

"Let's go, let's go into town."

"Stop, that unit."

When they reached the sentry, they were stopped, and the sentry soldiers shouted.

"Lieutenant Acting Company Commander of the Ninth Company of the 103rd Regiment of the 613th Division, now you are going to enter the city, please open the barricades."

After Zhang Ziwen finished speaking, he took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it to them, generally taking the cigarette means letting them go.

"Company Commander Zhang, you don't want a company to look like a battalion."

A lieutenant came out of the sentry box, and he didn't look like he had been on the battlefield no matter how he looked.

"What do you call this brother?"

"Muzi Lee"

The lieutenant in front of Zhang Ziwen said coldly and continued to look at the team.

"Brother Li, to be honest, there is also a transport company of our regiment in the team, two hundred brothers from our division who have been scattered, and another hundred brothers from the 112th division."

Only tell the truth, otherwise he would not let Zhang Ziwen in, after all, Danyang has fallen, who knows if Zhang Ziwen is a devil or a puppet army pretending, and another reason is that Zhang Ziwen has no money for this Lieutenant Li.

"Oh, that's what happened, then I'll ask."

Made, if you don't give money, you won't be allowed to enter, right, it's all to blame on Wu Fatzi, it's strange that the lieutenant of such a large convoy doesn't want to make some oil and water.

"This brother, you don't believe you can call back and ask."

Seeing that Zhang Ziwen was blocked, Wu Fatzi came up and handed something to Lieutenant Li.

"I'll call back and ask"

After speaking, he walked to the sentry box, and then stretched out his head and said.

"It's your own people, let the brothers go."

Zhang Ziwen saw it clearly, and he didn't make a phone call, so he directly asked the team to pass, afraid that he was anxious to see what benefits Wu Fatzi gave.

"Go" Zhang Ziwen didn't bother to care,

Anyway, it's not my own money, and I can't do anything about this kind of snake.

There was a two-mile place to get to the city gate, and when he arrived at the city gate, there was a sentry post, and Zhang Ziwen had a headache.

"The part?"

Far away, the soldiers at the sentry shouted.

"...... of the 103rd Division"

Before Zhang Ziwen finished speaking, he heard a sentence of release, which could only be attributed to Wu Zijian.

"Brother, where is the 103rd Division stationed?"

Zhang Ziwen handed the sentry a cigarette, and then inquired about the headquarters of the 103rd Division.

"The 103rd Division is stationed in the eastern part of the city."

The sentry took a deep breath of his cigarette and told Zhang Ziwen where the headquarters of the 103rd Division was stationed.

"Thanks, brother."

After speaking, Zhang Ziwen took a look at the team that was entering the city, and the brothers of the 103rd Division had almost all entered the city, and now they had to drag the people of the 112th Division.

"Brother of the 112th Division, your 112th Division is also in the city, you can ask this brother for the specific station."

Zhang Ziwen shouted to the people of the 112th Division behind him, and after speaking, he followed the brothers of the 103rd Division into the city, and the people of the 112th Division will not follow us now, so naturally they will not find March.

"Xiaobao, take someone to find the division headquarters and the regiment headquarters. I'll bring someone here to wait for you. ”

Zhang Ziwen took the brothers of the 103rd Division to the east of the city, but they were not found. I was afraid that my brothers would be separated, and no one would know who would do what the hungry and cold brothers would do, so I waited with my brothers.

"Brother Wen, I've found the division headquarters."

It took more than ten minutes for Ma Xiaobao to run back, and the 103rd Division's station was in a residential area east of the city.

"Brothers, follow me to the division."

They were overjoyed to hear that they had found the brothers in the team. When I arrived at the division headquarters, I found that several commanders had gone to the headquarters for a meeting, and the rest could not be the masters, Zhang Ziwen and hundreds of brothers had to wait for Deputy Division Commander Dai to come back.

"Zhang Ziwen, it's not a way to wait like this, from noon to now, everyone hasn't eaten yet."

The old pole reminded Zhang Ziwen to solve the basic problems first, Zhang Ziwen himself was hungry, let alone the brothers.

"Go find the division headquarters cooking class to borrow a place to cook."

Zhang Ziwen went to find a room with someone, Zhang Ziwen can't take it with him, otherwise who in the division will give face to these big-headed soldiers, and Zhang Ziwen has been in the division headquarters, although He Zhizhong ran away with people, but Zhang Ziwen still has brothers.

"Old Shen"

Zhang Ziwen ran to the staff office, and sure enough, his brother did not run with He Zhizhong. Shen Qiyu is a native of Duyun, Guizhou, the son of Zhang Ziwen's father and friend, Zhang Ziwen's ability to enter 103 is the thread he pulled, but Shen Qiyu graduated from Chongwu Military Academy and served as a captain and staff officer of the division headquarters.

"Xiao Zhang, you're okay, it was too chaotic that day, and I haven't heard from you when I arrived in Zhenjiang, so I thought something happened to you."

This guy is blaming Zhang Ziwen for not coming over to report his safety first, just now Zhang Ziwen went to Deputy Division Commander Dai and several staff officers knew that they must have told Zhang Ziwen the news of his return.

"Alright, let's get down to business."

Zhang Ziwen told Shen Qiyu about borrowing the room, and Shen Qiyu asked a brother brought by a guard to go to the room.

"You see that now I am the acting company commander, and I will be a captain in a short time, and I will catch up with my brother."

"That's comparable to you, my little brother almost died several times. By the way, how is the situation in the division? ”

"Alas, there are only more than 2,000 people who have withdrawn, and your 613 regiment, 618 regiment have lost as much as four-fifths, and 615 regiment has only half of them. And the 200 or so you brought back are less than 3,000. ”

Shen Qiyu already knew that Zhang Ziwen was back, and he also knew how many people Zhang Ziwen had brought back.

"What is the division going to do? If this continues, my 103rd Division will not even be able to defeat the formation. ”

"I came back at noon today to rest and recuperate, and the division commander took Wang Shuhuai and a few of their school officials to a meeting, and I didn't know until I came back."

It will take at least half an hour for the meal to be ready, and Zhang Ziwen chatted with Lao Shen about the current situation.
