Chapter 233: It's Better to Send Charcoal in the Snow
Chapter 233 It's better to send charcoal in the snow
At dawn the next day, with a rare absence of rain, the partisan detachment began to march westward.
The men sent out yesterday afternoon brought back two mutilated bodies, and identified them as members of the teaching team by their uniforms and equipment.
Write a tombstone and mark it on the map, the number sixteen.
This is the number of people who left this world yesterday, and if there is a chance, they will inevitably return here to take their bones.
After crossing the three strips of drinking, the guerrilla detachment finally caught up with the tail troops of the new 22nd Division before dark.
"Order, camp on the spot."
Because the brethren of the guerrilla detachment marched far beyond the New 22nd Division, because the guerrilla detachment was not only physically stronger than the New 22nd Division, but also had less baggage than the New 22nd Division.
A large radio station alone had to be carried by a company in turn, and the food of the new 22nd Division was far inferior to that of the guerrilla detachment, which made the difference even greater.
At night, the temperature immediately dropped, and the command headquarters ushered in a staff officer of the new 22nd Division.
As soon as he came, he said, "Commander Zhang, how are you doing?"
This person Zhang Ziwen knows, when he was in Kunlun Pass, this guy was still a follower behind Liao Yaoxiang, and now he is a colonel, and this official has been promoted quite quickly.
"Staff Officer Li, sit down and talk."
The orderlies of the command immediately brought a tree stump, and as for the chair, I don't know where it was washed away.
"It's been a hard time lately, the brother with low hands can't even eat, so the brother is desperately chasing after you."
Speaking of this, Zhang Ziwen showed a little unspeakable feeling, and when Staff Officer Li saw it, he asked, "Is there anything difficult about Commander Zhang?"
Waiting for this sentence, Zhang Ziwen seemed to grit his teeth and asked: "I am chasing you hard for my brother just to borrow some food, I don't know if you still have it, can you share a little with me?"
Staff Officer Li was speechless for a while, he came precisely for this matter, but he did not expect that the guerrilla detachment did not have much food, so if he could not borrow it, he should not put his own grain into it.
"Commander Zhang, my new 22nd Division is also difficult to protect itself, it's not because there is not enough food to ask if your guerrilla detachment has too many ......?"
"Hmph, your new 22nd Division was in front of us before retreating, and you took all the food away, and now you are here."
As soon as Zhang Ziwen's words came out, Staff Officer Li felt a little surprised, the script is not like this, but although he is the same colonel, the gold content in it is different, and only with soldiers in his hands can he have confidence, he didn't dare to make a face to Zhang Ziwen, so he could only say aggrievedly: "I didn't get much from the new 22nd Division, there are several divisions in front, and when we arrived at the warehouse, there was already a little left, so we had to take them all away."
Zhang Ziwen slapped the table directly and walked out of the command headquarters, and after singing with a black face, he changed his face to red.
"Staff Officer Li, don't mind, our commander has been angry several times over the matter of food, and we have been scolded many times."
When Staff Officer Li saw Rao Xiangyun say this, he had no choice but to bring back what he hadn't said yet.
Zhang Ziwen watched Staff Officer Li walk away, and then returned to the headquarters.
As soon as he came back, Rao Xiangyun immediately came up and asked, "Commander, will we make trouble with the new 22nd Division?"
Zhang Ziwen said with a smile: "No, that old guy Liao Yaoxiang must know that I am acting, but this Staff Officer Li is only afraid that it will be uncomfortable."
Rao Xiangyun then asked: "Commander, our food is enough to last for two days, plus the old British can last for twenty days, plus the various prey caught can last for forty days, why don't you give them a little."
Zhang Ziwen replied: "Their food is at least enough for half a month, and if you look at the places you pass by, they don't even pick the fruits that you can reach, which shows that they are not short of food."
Rao Xiangyun understands a little, they are not in a hurry, and they don't have to be in a hurry.
"Then we've been behind them, and when they run out of food, don't we have to give them food?"
Zhang Ziwen glanced up at the map, and now he has only walked less than a quarter of the way, and the problem of food cannot be solved by himself, and it is a problem whether to give it or not.
"When the time comes, it's better to send charcoal in the snow than to put the icing on the cake. The order was to halve the rations, give me more jerky, and at the same time not reveal to the new 22nd Division how much food we have. ”
After Staff Officer Li came out of the command of the guerrilla detachment, he felt that something was more and more wrong, and it stands to reason that Zhang Ziwen would entertain him no matter what, and according to the fact that he got along at Kunlun Pass, Zhang Ziwen was not a stingy person, and it can be said that this is an anomaly today.
Is it really because of the food issue that he plans to fight with the new 22nd Division? Aren't you afraid of Qiu Qingquan's reprimand?
Thinking that he saw that the guerrilla detachments were all strong and strong, and there was no trace of vegetables on their faces, which was even better than the complexion of the new 22nd Division that got the grain, he slapped his thigh.
"Ma De, Lao Tzu was deceived by Zhang Ziwen, how can I explain it this time."
The guards on the side were confused for a while, but the chief's affairs would be handled by himself, and he just needed to be a good guard.
Scolding all the way, Staff Officer Li still returned to the headquarters of the new 22nd Division.
As soon as you enter the command, you will immediately make a report.
"I'm back, what did Zhang Ziwen say."
In the face of this acting division commander, this person who promoted himself, he really couldn't say that he had been deceived.
I had to sort it out and say: "Tell the division, Commander Zhang said that we robbed all the food, so he lost his temper, and his subordinates had no choice but to come back."
Liao Yaoxiang didn't raise his head, continued to look at the map and said, "Then you didn't even say the word borrowing food, did you?"
Staff Officer Li sweated profusely, and Liao Yaoxiang could promote himself and find a reason to let himself go to the cooking class.
But this is the case, and I can only honestly say: "Yes......"
Liao Yaoxiang threw away the pencil in his hand and asked, "Have you observed how their food is?"
Staff Officer Li bowed his head and replied, "No, but none of their brothers seem to be undernourished?"
Liao Yaoxiang said with a smile: "This kid, the good ones don't learn, but the bad ones are almost learned." But it's his business that he doesn't give it to Zhang Ziwen, but it's your business if you don't say it, lock him up for me......"
As soon as the guard was about to make a move, one of the guards ran over and reported: "Division, there is a guerrilla detachment outside and Captain Luo has asked to see you."
Liao Yaoxiang asked the guard to stop and ordered, "Let him come close."
A pitch-black man walked into the command headquarters, saluted as soon as he came, and then put down his backpack.
Put the things in the backpack on the ground one by one, and salute directly after placing them and walk out of Liao Yaoxiang's headquarters.
Liao Yaoxiang looked at Captain Luo who went out and said, "That's it, let's be a fruit farmer, send people to collect these things, mix the grain and distribute it to the brothers."
