Chapter 172: Ambiguity
That night, Division Commander Liu also returned to Heshun County overnight with the division headquarters and several other regiments. Although Xiyang was also recovered, it was too close to the enemy-occupied area, and only a small number of vigilant troops remained.
The next day, the officers and men of the two armies began to have a party together. However, there were no entertainment programs in those days, just watching the performances of the Eighth Route Army Battlefield Art Troupe, as well as some local folk dramas performed by the local people.
Zheng Weiguo watched it for a while, then sneaked out and ran to the river for a walk. He had just walked a short distance when he heard a burst of laughter like a silver bell in front of him. When I looked up, it turned out to be the nurses of the field hospital washing clothes. One by one, they talked and laughed, and they seemed so unhappy.
The youngest of these female nurses is only sixteen or seventeen years old, and the oldest is less than twenty, which is the age of flowers. Although they are in the era of war, they do not see much sorrow, or rather, they are used to it, and they have taken it as a part of their lives.
"Ah, sisters, look, there's someone over there!" A sharp-eyed girl suddenly discovered Zheng Weiguo.
"It seems to be the division commander!"
"Look, it's really a teacher!"
"Ha, I must be looking for Sister Manxia!"
"Definitely, Manxia, hurry up! What are you doing stupidly? The spicy girl also pushed Manxia, and the other girls laughed along with her.
Yu Manxia's face was flushed with shame, and she turned around and started a fight with the girl next to her. However, the most reckless still walked forward to greet Zheng Weiguo and said, "Commander, why are you here?" ”
Zheng Weiguo said: "Oh, it's Manxia! It's fine. I'm just walking around. Why didn't you go to the theater? ”
Yu Manxia pouted and said, "Where can you be busy!" You see, so many wounded people have clothes to wash, and bandages and whatever, and they are almost piled up into a small mountain! ”
Zheng Weiguo took a look and saw that there were indeed a lot of clothes to be washed. Mainly, the wounded of the two armies and some of the wounded civilians who were sheltered were all sent to the field hospital, and the medical staff were a little too busy.
He thought for a moment and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go and transfer a company to help!" ”
Yu Manxia hurriedly stopped him and said, "No need, those male soldiers are clumsy." There is only foolery here. A few male soldiers had come earlier. They were all driven away by the sisters! He pursed his lips and laughed as he spoke.
Zheng Weiguo also laughed. Since there were female soldiers in the army, male soldiers often came to join in the fun, and some of the brave ones even made some strange toys to please the female soldiers.
For example, Brigade Commander Duan Shuanghu saved his allowance to buy some fat powder, small combs, small mirrors and the like for a female soldier, so that the brothers almost died of laughter after finding out. It's human nature. As long as it's not out of line. Zheng Weiguo also ignored it.
It's windy by the river. Blowing Yu Manxia's hair out of order, she hurriedly brushed the hair in her ears with her hand. Zheng Weiguo took a look and found that this little girl was really beautiful. No wonder that Wei Laocai had a lustful heart.
Yu Manxia found that Zheng Weiguo was looking at her, her face flushed slightly, she wanted to say something, she opened her mouth, but she didn't say anything, just moved closer to Zheng Weiguo's side. From a distance, the two look like a couple, looking a little charming.
Zheng Weiguo felt that the atmosphere was a little ambiguous and wanted to leave, but seeing Yu Manxia's happy face, he was afraid of hurting her. After all, he still has a good impression of this rather chivalrous girl.
After walking along the river, I suddenly ran from the direction of the county seat. This is an Oriental horse with a white forehead and long ears, and it looks particularly majestic. On horseback, a man wearing a black leather coat, a pair of small glasses, and a camera around his neck was the proud brigade commander Chen.
Click! Brigade Commander Chen was quick-eyed, and before Zheng Weiguo and the others could react, he snapped a photo, and said with a wicked smile: "Yo ho, I said why did you sneak away, it turned out that you were hiding here to fall in love!" Yu Manxia was relatively bold, but after all, she was still a girl who hadn't left the cabinet, so she turned her head and ran away in shame.
Zheng Weiguo flew up and scolded: "Don't talk nonsense, that girl is not married yet!" "There is a lot of fate between him and Yu Manxia. At the beginning, Zheng Weiguo led people to attack Weijiabao and happened to save her. Later, this stupid girl was instigated to go to Zheng Weiguo's room to "repay her kindness", and there were a lot of misunderstandings, so that Zheng Weiguo still can't speak clearly.
However, we don't have to come together because of this! Zheng Weiguo feels that the generation gap with people in this era is too big, and he regards Yu Manxia more as a friend in his heart, but unfortunately everyone in this era does not seem to believe in the theory of friends of the opposite sex.
Brigadier Chen obviously didn't believe it and said, "Cut! If you dare to mess around when you get married, be careful to dip your pig cage. He smiled again: "Hey, you're really anxious!" The actors worked so stage, you were good, you slipped away without saying hello. ”
Zheng Weiguo smiled bitterly: "The program performed by your art troupe is too dull, I want to sleep when I watch it." "There is really nothing to see in the theatrical programs of this era, there are no costumes, sound effects, stage backgrounds, lighting, etc. Especially the drama of the Art Troupe, the whole story is boring dialogue, which is absolutely sleepy, and even the Eighth Route Army himself doesn't like to watch it.
Brigadier Chen said: "Pull it down, just you are a dirt bun, and you have seen a more exciting show than here?" ”
Zheng Weiguo almost died of anger and said, "My soil? At least a hundred times more foreign than you. Let's go back and see what a real theatrical performance is! ”
Brigadier Chen smiled and said, "Then I'll wait and see!" "At that time, the national army did not have a special art troupe, but only occasionally organized some artists to work in the army, and the performances were also soft. Relatively speaking, it is still the literary and artistic work of the Eighth Road that has done better.
Some enlightened generals of the national army often come to learn from experience, such as Wei Lihuang, who copied a literary troupe, and the routine was completely learned from the Eighth Road. Because of this, Brigadier Chen absolutely did not believe that the national army could come up with better literary and artistic programs.
Zheng Weiguo said: "I'll talk about it when this busy period is over!" By the way, what's the matter with you looking for me in such a hurry? ”
Brigade Commander Chen said: "I almost forgot, the division commander said that he wanted to hold a celebration of the victory and commendation of the anti-encirclement and suppression in southeast Shanxi, and wanted to hear your opinion." Also, hehe, it's a matter of the distribution of seized materials! ”
Zheng Weiguo said: "Well, this conference should be more solemn, take advantage of this big victory to boost morale, and strengthen the belief that the national war of resistance will be won." I won't interfere in the specific matters, please ask Professor Yang to talk about it! ”
He paused and asked, "Is there anything wrong with that seizure?" Whoever catches it will be whomever it is! ”
Brigadier Chen explained: "Some of them were seized unilaterally, so naturally there is no problem. But some of the things that were collected after the war, because the war was urgent, were not distributed, but just piled up! ”
Zheng Weiguo nodded and said, "Oh, just let Chief of Staff Zhou talk about this!" ”
Brigadier Chen said: "Dare to love you, you are now a hands-off shopkeeper!" ”
Zheng Weiguo said with a smile: "Almost, make the best use of it!" Do everything by yourself, want to learn from Zhuge Liang? Then he asked, "What are you going to do with the seizures of this battle?" Do you want me to help? ”
Brigadier Chen smiled and said, "What do you want to help you with?" The division commander said that he planned to use these weapons to form three more regiments, one of which would be assigned to our brigade. Hehe, when the time comes, brother, I will also have a large army with four main regiments! ”
The 386 Brigade originally had only the 771st Regiment and the 772nd Regiment, and later a supplementary regiment was formed. If a new regiment were formed, there would be four regiments. In terms of structure, it is already equivalent to a division of the national army, no wonder Brigadier Chen is so happy.
Zheng Weiguo explained: "I don't want your good weapons, but those that are damaged, as well as the prisoners of the Japanese army, the higher the rank, the better!" ”
Brigadier Chen said curiously: "What do you want these things for?" ”
Zheng Weiguo smiled and said, "The secret of heaven must not be revealed, so you can say that you don't agree!" ”
Brigade Commander Chen suddenly realized and said, "I understand, is it sold to the national army?" How much can I pay? ”
Zheng Weiguo saw that his eyes lit up, and he despised him fiercely, and said, "Look at you who are obsessed with money!" ”
Brigade Commander Chen said: "I can't compare with you, you have a guard chief on you, just take a telegram if you want." If I want to order something, I can only force myself with the devil, and if I don't use it carefully, the brothers will have to drink the northwest wind! ”
Zheng Weiguo smiled: "Don't be so pitiful, Chief Wei has not treated you badly. ”
Brigadier Chen said: "Chief Wei is not bad, if he hadn't dialed a million rounds of bullets this time, the division commander wouldn't have dared to fight the devils in Changle Village!" ”
He also said, "What you just said is unreliable?" If it's reliable, I'll hand over all the things of the whole division to you to deal with, and when the time comes, we'll add five to two, and half of the money we earn! ”
Zheng Weiguo said: "So generous? "Don't look at it as just some broken copper and iron, and there are some lower-level officers and non-commissioned officers of the Japanese army, but in terms of the national army, they are absolutely strange goods. Removing some of the costs of opening joints, you can also save a lot of wealth, and you can also exchange for a large number of weapons and equipment. Historically, the Eighth Route has not used these things for supplies.
Brigade Commander Chen smiled: "It's not much use for us to keep it in our hands, so it's better to come back with something that is in use." Now that your line is reliable, of course, you have to give a little more hard-earned money. ”
Zheng Weiguo smiled: "You have a little conscience!" Then he asked, "What do you want to get back?" You make a list, and I'll try to get it according to your requirements! ”
Brigadier Chen thought for a moment and said, "Hehe, the right to make information you said last night, I think it's really a bit interesting. Can you help me get a whole set of equipment back? ”
Zheng Weiguo said briskly: "Okay, I'll figure out a way for this!" But I don't dare to say it too much, after all, these devices are lacking everywhere! ”
When Brigadier Chen heard this, he happily even showed his back molars, and said repeatedly: "Good, good! If the thing is done, please drink sweet potato roast! ”
While the two were talking happily, a cavalry messenger came running on horseback and shouted from afar: "Division, the commander of the guard has called back!" (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
