The night attack of the Japanese army caused another heavy casualty to our first battalion, and the first battalion became the most unfortunate unit in this reinforcement operation across the river.

The second battalion and the third battalion almost did not lose a single soldier, while our first battalion lost nearly 100 men in two battles. This is a huge casualty, and there is no excuse for it, it is the commander's dereliction of duty.

On the third day, our whole regiment received an order to withdraw to the east bank, not because we were unwilling to add another army to the west bank, but because it was too difficult to supply supplies.

Because the Chinese army is not the only one on the west bank, the supply of materials is often intercepted and snatched by the Japanese army, and it is difficult to supply the 17th Division alone, and if the last regiment is added, the supply will inevitably be even more unsustainable. Rather than this, it is better to withdraw us to the east coast.

We retreated to the East Coast, for it was a triumphant victory, and commendation was indispensable. Huang Wenlie was awarded the Order of Baoding of the First Class, and the officers and soldiers of the other departments were rewarded.

Although Huang Wenlie explained to Shangfeng that the first battalion was defeated because of the fierce attack by the Japanese army, Shangfeng still accepted Wang Tingyue's report and believed that my improper command was the main cause of this casualty.

At the regiment headquarters meeting, Wang Tingyue read out the appointment and dismissal order of Shangfeng: "In view of the fact that An Sihu, the commander of the first battalion, was frightened by the battle and his command was improper, it is not appropriate to serve as the commander of the first battalion again. From now on, An Sihu was dismissed from the post of battalion commander and his rank was demoted to captain. The commander of the first battalion is temporarily held by Zhou Dalei. ”

Wang Tingyue finished reading out the appointment and dismissal order, and said: "I hope that all ministries will take this as a warning, and this kind of thing must not happen again. ”

Wang Tingyue This is a satire on me shooting Zhai Li in battle at that time, I smiled bitterly in my heart, and I fucking slashed Ma Jian with tears! Even if Zhai Li is a Ma Yan, where am I worthy of being Zhuge Liang?

Huang Wenlie actually knows in his heart, of course he knows that I will not be dismissed when it comes to responsibility, but at this point, he has no choice.

I am now the captain and deputy of the battalion, and Zhou Dalei is the battalion commander.

I smiled and said, "That's good, it's back to the time before, and you still lead me." ”

Zhou Dalei scratched his head and said: "It's okay for me to lead a company, but I have no experience with a battalion, no, I have to go to the regiment commander and ask him to choose another master!" ”

Me: "If you ask the head of the regiment to find another master, Wang Tingyue will be able to send his cronies over in a few days, and I will have no place to stand at that time." Battalion Commander Zhou, for the sake of your brothers, you should be the battalion commander well. ”

Zhou Dalei knew the contradiction between me and Wang Tingyue, so he no longer insisted. In fact, Zhou Dalei is only modest and modest, his level is more than enough to be a battalion commander, if it weren't for the fact that his interpersonal relationships did not keep up with his exploits, Zhou Dalei should at least be a regiment commander now.

No longer serving as the commander-in-chief, in fact, for me, I feel that I have unloaded a heavy burden, and it is very laborious to carry a battalion of people forward, and it is relatively easy to be a deputy position.

For example, in the past, I only went back to Linmeng almost once every two months, but now it is different, I can go back three or twice a month, because the battalion deputy actually has no substantive work to do, just an auxiliary commander's position, and in many units the power of the battalion deputy is even inferior to that of a company commander.

As I walked on Linmeng Street, I felt a sense of rebirth, and those who had just come out of the fire would cherish the time of peace and tranquility.

"Dad, I'm back." I stood in the courtyard of my father's house, watching my father and An Xixin, an old man and a young man, studying what insects on the ground, in my eyes it was a pair of children of different ages.

"It's good to be back. Wash your heart, and don't go to say hello yet. "My father taught me by word and deed, and I also taught An Xixin to be the same template as when I was a child.

"Dad, I'm sorry for you." The little guy knelt at my feet and kowtowed three times.

I hugged An Xixin and smiled: "Don't kowtow so hard, just mean it, if you break your head, you have to go to the doctor, but it's troublesome, isn't it?" ”

My father said, "Wash your heart, don't listen to your father, just listen to your grandfather." ”

I laughed, and although I didn't know why I was laughing, he laughed with me, and then my father turned around and went into the living room with a smile on his lips.

It's joy, it's the happiness that haunts me, and if I can, I just want to be in it, forever.

After dinner, I'm going to see Tan Qinrou, the wife who makes me feel deeply guilty. I went with him, and my father was kind enough to keep him.

I came to the gate of the Tan family, and the steward at the door saw that it was me, and said in surprise: "Uncle, you are back, Miss heard that your group has returned to the east coast, and you have to ask us seven or eight times every day in the past few days to see if you have come." ”

When a little maid heard me talking to the steward, she immediately ran in, shouting as she ran, "Miss, miss! ”

After a while, Tan Qinrou's disgusted voice came out: "Xiaocui, you are a dead girl, what is the name of the ghost, it is so noisy that I haven't slept well at noon!" ”

"Miss, what are you still sleeping on, my uncle is back!"

"Huh?"

Tan Qinrou almost synchronized with Xiaocui's voice, ran out of the room in a hurry, and then stood at the door in front of the court, looking at me in a daze.

I laughed and said, "Why, you didn't recognize me so soon?" ”

Tan Qinrou suddenly rushed up and threw herself into my arms, tears falling down in pairs: "My heart is going to break when I shoot guns on the other side of the river." An Sihu, you hurt me not to eat and sleep well, you have to compensate me! ”

I rushed to kill on the West Bank, and she couldn't sleep all night on the East Bank, and her thoughts and worries can also promote growth. Tan Qinrou has gone from a big lady running around like crazy to now a pear blossom with rain.

The more she talked, the more sad she became, and she simply lay on my shoulder and wept loudly, causing the maids and servants around her to cry too.

"Hey, hey, what's the stubble, I'm coming back with all my beards and tails, and I'm not missing arms or legs, why are you crying?"

"Say it again!" Tan Qinrou opened her mouth and bit me the shoulder, and then said proudly in my exaggerated scream: "Let you remember it for a long time, I'm sad and sad, and you still say cool things!" ”

"I remember you were a cat, why did you suddenly become a dog?"

"You're angry with me, I'm a dog! …… Where am I a cat! ”

Tan Qinrou burst into tears and laughed, beating me, and the people around me were all happy and sad with their eldest lady.

"I said, will you come down first? Let's do this in public...... It's ...... to be immoral."

I reminded me like this, and Tan Qinrou realized that she had forgotten her form, so she hugged me in the yard of their house. She blushed, but ignored it, and muttered in a low voice: "What is offensive, we are husband and wife, what does it matter." ”

But at last he fell on my shoulder and shouted, "You are not allowed to look, all go away, all go away." ”

The maids and servants hid in the dark with a snicker, many of them either grew up watching Tan Qinrou grow up, or followed Tan Qinrou's childhood playmates, and their feelings for her were not the same as those of ordinary masters and servants, which is why Tan Qinrou did not deliberately avoid them at all.

"Ahem!" A cough rang out in the doorway.

Tan Qinrou was still waving her hand: "I said I walked away!" ”
