Chapter 143: Battle Flag
"Drip, drip, drip......"
The sound of a transmitter typing sounded in the silent room, and it sounded crisp and loud. After Sun Tingting typed the last password and sent out this message, she sighed heavily and said to herself: "Brother Zhang, I hope you don't blame me, as a military commander agent, I have my duties, and I have no choice but to do it." After sending the telegram, Sun Tingting did not hide the transmitter again, but sat at the table and waited for a response. In fact, as early as half a month ago, Liu Bocheng led the troops to Peng County, since Zhang Dongbei decided to join the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army, she has been hesitant to report the news to Dai Li, if it was before, if it was another person, she would not hesitate to tell Dai Li the news as soon as possible, but in the face of Zhang Dongbei, she really didn't want to do this, because she could imagine how Dai Li would react if she got the news that Zhang Dongbei had joined the Eighth Route Army. He will definitely order himself to get rid of Zhang Dongbei as soon as possible. But she really didn't want this result, although she kept telling herself in her heart that she couldn't have any feelings as an agent, but the more she thought about it in her heart, the more she would find out her affection for Zhang Dongbei, the more she wanted to deny that she was already emotional, but in the end, she found that she was getting deeper and deeper. Even at this moment, her heart is still suffering, she hopes that her boss Dai will suddenly change his mind and no longer embarrass Zhang Dongbei, but she herself thinks this idea is ridiculous.
Waiting is a long time, as if waiting for something that you know the outcome but can't change but can't change in your heart, which is a painful torture for anyone who has feelings. Sun Tingting stared at the transmitter in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Di......" A short voice sounded from the sound of the report, Sun Tingting knew that the news she was waiting for was coming, so she quickly put on the headphones, and the pencil in her hand was written on the paper, and the numbers jumped on the paper. In just a few tens of seconds, Sun Tingting took off her headphones, this time the content of the telegram was very short, Sun Tingting picked up the paper on the table and looked at it seriously, when a scurrying number was churning in her mind and converted into words, a miserable and helpless smile appeared on her face.
"Sure enough, alas, why does fate play such tricks on people, why does it make me emotionally attracted to him, why does he join [***], and why do I have to kill the first man I fell in love with?" Sun Tingting sat at the table and muttered to herself, like a dream.
Get rid of it as soon as possible!
Dai Li's reply was only four short and cold words. Sun Tingting really wanted to send another telegram to question him, now is an important period for the KMT and the Communist Party to cooperate and fight together, why do you want to do this, is it so a practice of sabotaging the united front, is the so-called KMT-CCP cooperation all fake? But she knew that she couldn't send it and didn't have to send it, because Dai Lia wouldn't answer her question, and if she did, then there would be only one result for herself, that is, Dai Lia no longer trusted herself, and for a tool that she no longer trusted, Dai Li would never let this tool appear in this world again.
Since it has to be done, then it can only assassinate Liu Bocheng, as long as Liu Bocheng dies in Peng County, then [***] will definitely suspect Zhang Dongbei, then Zhang Dongbei will no longer be able to join [***] side, and then Zhang Dongbei can only go to the Kuomintang side. Under the cranky thoughts, Sun Tingting thought of this terrible plan to kill Liu Bocheng. Although there is no military rank system in the Eighth Route Army, it is undeniable that Liu Bocheng's status in the Eighth Route Army is no less than that of any general in the Kuomintang. If a [***] high-ranking general dies in Peng County, even if [***] knows that it was not Zhang Dongbei who did it, the charge of poor protection will prevent him from integrating into [***]'s troops.
With a plan in mind, she no longer had any worries, but put away the transmitter and began to think about the planning process of killing. And just as she was thinking, Zhang Dongbei suddenly came.
"Uncle Sun, Tingting, are you at home?" Zhang Dongbei shouted in the courtyard.
Sun Tingting came out of the room, walked up to Zhang Dongbei and asked, "Brother Zhang, my father is upstairs, are you okay?" Seeing that Zhang Dongbei seemed to be a little anxious, Sun Tingting knew that something had happened.
Zhang Dongbei said with a smile: "There is nothing else, I just came to tell you that the 129th Division received the order and was about to set off for the battlefield, and I will also set off with the team." So I'm here to tell you, and I hope you'll come with me too. ”
Sun Tingting exclaimed: "Are you leaving?" So anxious? She didn't mean Zhang Dongbei, but Liu Bocheng, she had just made a killing plan in her heart, but she didn't expect Liu Bocheng to leave Peng County. However, although she thought so, Zhang Dongbei didn't know.
Zhang Dongbei said with a smile: "Well, Chiang Kai-shek has officially launched a war against the little devil and fired the first shot, and the task of the Eighth Route Army is to fully cooperate with Chiang Kai-shek's Xuzhou Battle this time, so as to give Xiao Yueben the heaviest blow." ”
Sun Tingting sighed and said, "Do you want to go together?" Don't you protect the people of Peng County? Although she knew from the beginning that Peng County would not be able to keep Zhang Dongbei, she still felt a sense of loss when she heard that Zhang Dongbei was leaving here at this moment.
Zhang Dongbei said: "The boss has made proper arrangements for Peng County, and now the battle of Xuzhou is imminent, and the little devil has no time to take care of it, so Peng County is safe now." And although I am going to go with the team, I will still protect the people of Peng County, after all, this is the first city I captured, and there are many good memories here. ”
Sun Tingting said: "But you are gone, how can you protect Peng County, is it possible that you want to leave the Wolf Tooth Special Combat Team in Peng County?" The Wolf Tooth Special Combat Team has long been renamed the Wolf Tooth Special Combat Brigade, but Sun Tingting still hasn't changed her words, not because she doesn't know, but because she doesn't want to change her words, because once she changes her words, it will be to admit that Zhang Dongbei has joined the [***] team, although this is already a fact, but Sun Tingting is unwilling to admit this fact.
Zhang Dongbei said: "I must take the Wolf Tooth Special Combat Brigade away, but I will leave the battle flag of the Wolf Tooth Special Combat Brigade at the head of Peng County, and use it to tell anyone who wants to fight Peng County again that this city belongs to my Wolf Tooth Special Combat Brigade, and if anyone dares to invade, then I will definitely rush back and destroy him as soon as possible." Zhang Dongbei said this crazy enough, but Sun Tingting didn't think he was arrogant at all, but felt that it was a matter of course. Zhang Dongbei has done too many incredible things.
At this time, Sun Chuanfang also came down from the stairs, and said as he walked: "Northeast, come to me for something?" Or is it just to find Tingting? One sentence made the two people who were originally fine blush.
Zhang Dongbei said with a smile: "Uncle Sun, I'm here to tell you that the 129th Division will set off in a while, and I will also go with the team, I came to let you go with me." ”
Sun Chuanfang frowned and said, "Is it so urgent?" Is something happening? ”
Zhang Dongbei then told Sun Chuanfang about Chiang Kai-shek's plan for the Battle of Xuzhou. Now that Chiang Kai-shek has fired the first shot, the Battle of Xuzhou can no longer be considered a secret, and Sun Chuanfang is also a patriotic person, and Sun Tingting is a military commander, even if this matter has not been made public, it is okay to tell the two of them.
Sun Chuanfang nodded and said, "Chiang Kai-shek has finally made another correct decision, which is a good thing." Northeast, I have long known that the small county town of Peng County will not be able to keep you. Now that you have joined the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army, it can be said that you have taken the first step in your ambitions, you must work hard, but don't let me, an old man, down. As for going out with you, I don't think it's necessary, my old bones can't stand the toss. I'll stay in Peng County. ”
Zhang Dongbei said: "No. Uncle Sun, do you remember what Ichiro Kameda said before he died? Although I have been safe and sound until now, I have done everything I can, and since they have received the news that you are still alive in the world, they will definitely find a way to disadvantage you. I promised you before that I would protect you, so I can't leave you alone. If you don't leave, Uncle Sun, then I won't leave either. ”
Sun Chuanfang and Sun Tingting were both shocked, and there was a trace of complex feelings in their eyes, but the feelings in their eyes were completely different, Sun Chuanfang felt that Zhang Dongbei was honest and credible, and he was a trustworthy person who did what he said, but Sun Tingting's eyes were full of affection for Zhang Dongbei, in her heart, her father's safety was always the first, and now the man in front of him wanted to give up the opportunity to go out with the army for his father, for a soldier and a soldier, It is a glorious mission and an honor to be able to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, but the man in front of him can give up these for the sake of his family, Sun Tingting was sincerely moved in her heart, if it weren't for her scruples about her father standing next to her, she really wanted to throw herself into Zhang Dongbei's arms and say thank you to him.
Sun Chuanfang sighed: "Northeast, I know that you are a man who relieves promises, but my old bones are not worth it." If Xiao Yue really wants my surname, I'll just give them to them. In my opinion, these two years have been earned. ”
"No! If you don't go, I won't go. Zhang Dongbei and Sun Tingting actually said the same sentence in unison. The two glanced at each other, Zhang Dongbei smiled and nodded to Sun Tingting, and told her with his eyes, reassuring her that he would definitely persuade Sun Chuanfang to go with him.
Zhang Dongbei said: "Uncle Sun, you just said that my joining the Eighth Route Army is the first step I took to develop my ambitions, do you want to take back this step again?" ”
Sun Tingting also persuaded on the side: "Dad, since Brother Zhang has said so, then let's follow him on the expedition, with Brother Zhang and his wolf tooth special combat team, we will definitely be able to protect Dad's safety." ”
Sun Chuanfang raised his head and sighed: "My Sun Chuanfang has been fighting horses all my life, but I didn't expect that when I was old, I would have to flee everywhere in order to avoid Xiao Yueben's pursuit. ”
Zhang Dongbei said: "Uncle Sun, we can't call it a fugitive, we are going to the battlefield, we are going to fight the little devil head-on, your old family is old and strong, and then show their strength." ”
Sun Chuanfang scolded with a smile: "You kid can't spit out ivory in his mouth, what is old and strong, and then show his majesty." My daughter is still standing here. ”
Zhang Dongbei was stunned for a moment, and shouted in his heart, you yourself want to be crooked, okay, what I said didn't mean to be obscene. looked at Sun Tingting and found that she was blushing and looking at her father with a strange face, and the two pale reds on her cheeks were as delicate as the moon flowers in May.
Zhang Dongbei smiled: "Uncle Sun, you can set off with the team with me." Otherwise, Tingting and I will have to stay with you. ”
Sun Chuanfang glanced at the two of them, thought for a while, and then said, "Okay." I'll go with you. ”
"Great, then I'll help you pack your things now, and then everyone will go to the East City Gate to gather." Zhang Dongbei smiled.
After packing up some necessary things, the group headed for the east gate.
When the people in the city heard that Zhang Dongbei was going to leave Peng County with the Eighth Route Army, all the people came to the city gate, and they wanted to keep Zhang Dongbei, because in their hearts, only Zhang Dongbei was in Peng County, they could live with peace of mind.
"City Lord Captain, are you really leaving? Are you no longer protecting us? An old man over half a hundred years old ran up to Zhang Dongbei's body and asked with a gloomy expression.
"Yes, City Lord Captain, you're gone, what should we do, you're not in Peng County, what if the little devil calls again?"
"City Lord Captain, you just stay, we can't live without you in Peng County."
……
For a while, all the ordinary people opened their mouths and said to Zhang Dongdong.
Looking at the affection of these simple villagers in front of him, Zhang Dongbei's nose was sour, and some of the words he had thought of choked in his throat and couldn't be said anymore.
"What are you doing here, Captain Zhang has now joined the Eighth Route Army, the reason why he left Peng County is to drive all the devils in other parts of China back to their own country, when the time comes, when all the little devils are driven away, then our words will really get better, at that time there is no need to fight, we don't have to worry about it all day long, if Captain Zhang has been staying in our Peng County, we are now at ease, but what about the people in other places, Are we going to watch them suffer there and ignore them? An old man suddenly walked out of the crowd and said loudly to the ordinary people who were trying to keep Zhang Dongbei.
Zhang Dongbei looked fixedly, this person was none other than Xiao Ke's father, Daddy Xiao. Under Daddy Xiao's rhetoric, the villagers also bowed their heads and stopped talking, Daddy Xiao was right, we can't just think about ourselves, but also think about others.
Seeing that the villagers stopped talking, Zhang Dongbei cast a grateful look at Daddy Xiao, these words were said by him, and the villagers would definitely listen, but if he said it himself, the effect might be counterproductive.
Zhang Dongbei walked into the team of the wolf's tooth special operations brigade, took a piece of red cloth from Zhao Ruzhi's hand and unfolded it, only to see that this red cloth was a flag, and a crescent-shaped pattern was cut with a yellow line in the middle of the red flag, which was the party flag symbol of [***], and under the crescent-shaped figure was a grinning wolf's head embroidered with white thread, and a few big characters were embroidered under the wolf's head: The Wolf's Tooth Special Operations Brigade of the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army.
Zhang Dongbei handed over the flag in his hand to Father Xiao's hands, and then turned to the villagers and said: "Folks, although I, Zhang Dongbei, am now going to go out with the team to fight more little devils, but I will leave the flag of the Wolf Tooth Special Combat Brigade here, and when the time comes, you will plant this flag in the city, this Peng County will be the city of my Eighth Route Army's Wolf Tooth Special Combat Brigade from now on, if anyone dares to invade my city, I will rush back and destroy him as soon as possible." ”
When the people saw this banner and heard Zhang Dongbei say this, they all cheered. In their hearts, Zhang Dongbei is a god, although only one flag is left, but in their opinion, this is enough.
Zhang Dongbei turned his head to the captives and said: "You have been living in Peng County for this time, and your performance is not bad, so I don't plan to take you with me when you leave this time, and I will let you continue to stay in Peng County, but if any of you think that this will be an opportunity for you to rebel, then I will definitely let you know that your ideas are wrong, and they are very wrong." You can now choose to stand on my left hand side if you want to stay, and stand on my right hand side if you want to go with me. Zhang Dongbei's eyes lit up, waiting for the decision of these captives.
Time passed minute by minute, and the captives all chose to stay in Peng County. Looking at the decision they made, Zhang Dongbei said: "Okay, since you have all decided to stay in Peng County, then I will teach you to the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army who are now responsible for guarding the security of Peng County, and I hope that you will cooperate with their work at that time." ”
Zhang Dongbei's decision was very bold, these soldiers took nearly 1,000 prisoners, and now there are only more than 1,000 people in a regiment of the Eighth Route Army responsible for guarding Peng County. However, it turned out that Zhang Dongbei's decision was right, and these prisoners of the army had been living quietly in Peng County after Zhang Dongbei left, and many of them later changed their Chinese names, married local women, and lived their lives in Peng County.
