Chapter 62 No Punishment but Reward

The big platoon commander dragged the serious injury, staggered to Chang Endo's horse, and roared hoarsely: "Division commander, what are our crimes? Why are they firing at our own brothers? ”

Chang Endo's blood gushed upward. His temples suddenly jumped suddenly, and in the face of countless pairs of staring eyes, he was full of grief and indignation, but his throat was infarcted and he couldn't say a word.

The wound of the big platoon commander was still bleeding, and he affectionately stroked the spear that was used as a corner, and told sadly:

"Division commander, I carry this gun, my subordinates, I have been a soldier for so many years, I have followed you to the north and south, and I have never been a bad seed. But later...... Later, his old Jiang took advantage of the fire to rob, detained Zhang Shaoshuai, and transferred us here. But ...... Don't treat us as human beings! Arrears of military salaries and withholding of arms, not to mention. Even if we want to fight the devil with all our might, he Lao Jiang insisted that we fight the Eighth Route Army. Why do the Chinese fight the Chinese? Commander, what the hell do you say this is......"

Chang Endo closed his eyes weakly, ashamed and unbearable. In the middle of the night, he opened his eyes suddenly, pointed his hand forward, and shouted, "Go back to the station!" ”

"No!" The big platoon commander grabbed the reins of Chang Enduo's war horse violently and cried out in pain, "Brothers, going back is also a dead end!" I'd rather pour this jar of blood here than go back to fight the eight roads! He earnestly raised his tearful face: "Commander, you are our backbone, you want to save the brothers, can you take them to the fire pit!" With that, he slammed headfirst into a large rock on the side of the road......

Chang Endo's heart trembled, and his eyes moistened. He took off his military hat and blamed himself bitterly: "Chang Enduo, Chang Enduo, you are a man in vain, sorry for your father and brothers in your hometown, sorry for the brothers of the whole division......" He burst into tears.

He returned home with tears in his eyes, sat down on the Taishi's chair, and was stunned. Wan Yi hung a bandage, walked in with a gloomy face, and sat unceremoniously on another Taishi chair, looking at Chang Enduo.

Wan Yi finally couldn't hold it back, panting and said loudly: "Brother, I really can't figure out how you could order the withdrawal, so many brothers' blood is so wasted?" ”

Chang Enduo stomped his feet to the ground in pain and said loudly: "I know this, is it possible that the team has withdrawn, and I am willing? No, Brother Wan, you were red-eyed at that time, and you couldn't see how big the difference in strength between the two sides was, Lao Jiang was ruthless, and he would never have compassion for us in the Northeast Army! So, even if we make it through this, what can we do? Instead of letting Lao Jiang eat us, it is better to withdraw it first and then make a plan! ”

"Withdraw, will the fate of our master be better?" Wan Yi was still angry, and punched his thigh, saying, "Staying here is also a dead end!" ”

"No!" Chang Endo's eyes flashed with hope, "No, as the saying goes: 'Heaven has no endless road'!" ”

"But where is our way out?" Wan Yi sighed dejectedly.

Chang Enduo's eyes fell on the "Art of War" that Xiao Zhang had just put on the bookcase when he came out of his bag, and he took it, skillfully flipped to the place he was looking for, sent it to Wan Yi's eyes, and pointed with his fingers: "The answer is on this!" Chang Enduo said hopefully and confidently, "Little brother, over the years, you and I have shared hardships, and then we live and die together, and we are like brothers, from now on, no matter what the circumstances, we must unite in order to be invincible!" ”

"Okay!" Wan Yi replied boldly, "Brother, don't worry, I will listen to you at any time!" ”

In the old Chiang Mansion. Kai-shek slammed a page of messages on the table, furious: "It's the other way around! A few Northeast Yankees dared to rebel! Niang Xipi! Dare to disobey my orders and take the troops out. I'm going to remove them all from their posts and do it with military law!" ”

Chen Bui said cautiously: "Appoint, please be cautious, if you are too anxious, I am afraid that something will happen!" ”

Chiang Kai-shek was stunned, and his anger did not subside: "What do you mean by this? ”

Chen Bui took a few steps forward and carefully said: "Chang Enduo, Wan Yi and others are involuntary to submit to the president. This time, when they were transferred to Sulu, they were even more full of resentment. As they expected to be furious about the setbacks in this anti-Japanese war, they were likely to make them take a risk. ”

"Mother, they dare! Go on. ”

"You must know that Jiangsu Han Deqin is beyond their reach, and they are surrounded by the anti-Japanese base in Shandong. Now, the army commander Miao Chengliu is also in the field and does not talk about it, and this person has colluded with the Japanese, and he is not popular with the army, and the 57th Army is scattered and separated, in case of ......"

Chiang Kai-shek nodded knowingly: "Hmm! But the anger and hatred could not be extinguished, "So, this time I spared them?" ”

Chen Bui: "If you can't bear it, it will be difficult to achieve great things." In Ibre's opinion, it is better to turn punishment into reward and stabilize them first, so as to dispel their fear of the president. Another order Miao Chengliu to move closer there as soon as possible......"

Chiang Kai-shek: "Okay, this time I will do it according to your opinion." Send someone for a trip. However, I have to secretly order that fat brigade commander to closely monitor the movements of Chang Enduo, Wan Yi and others, and report directly to me at any time! ”

"Yes, Bray will do it immediately!"

At noon the next day, two military jeeps slowly parked on the large playground of the division headquarters, Chang Enduo led the crowd to meet them, the car door opened, and Han Deqin slowly got out of the car. Salute and shake hands with Chang Enduo and other generals who greeted him one by one. A young officer and the female officer stood there neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Chang Enduo smiled sheepishly: "Chairman Han is tired from the journey, please go to the division headquarters to rest!" ”

"If you're on official business, let's have a meeting first!" Han Deqin said and walked towards the conference hall with everyone.

Han Deqin saw everyone sitting down one after another, glanced at everyone and said, "I'll go to the bathroom first, please wait a while, everyone, please take a moment." ”

The officers who did not find a seat also found a seat and sat down.

Han Deqin came out of the bathroom, glanced at it with his eyes, and saw that the generals had already taken their seats. He picked up the tea bowl, opened the lid of the bowl, took a sip, and said with a smile: "Brother first announces an important life commendation order!" ”

The hall was silent, and the colonels straightened their backs and sat upright. Han Deqin took out an official document and read it aloud without hurrying: "Ladies and gentlemen, I hereby announce: Chang Enduo and Wan Yi, commanders of the 111th Division of the 50th Army, and other two brigade commanders have led the troops in a good way, fought the enemy bravely, and actively resisted Japan. ”

The generals applauded warmly. With a hint of doubt in his eyes, Chang Endor stood up with an arrogant sneer. Then he laughed and said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, not long ago, the president also sent a telegram to scold me for not killing the enemy with all my strength, greedy for life and afraid of death, and cowering. This time, we took the lead in demanding an all-out effort against Japan, and I think the president will definitely send us to a court-martial. The sun really came out of the west, and the president not only did not punish us, but rewarded us, which makes us really grateful! ”

Wan Yi said with a smile: "I am really touched by the magnanimity of the president. It's a pity that I'm not born to love money, and I don't have any merit. I now declare that these two thousand oceans will be distributed among the brethren of the whole brigade to-morrow! ”

When the generals and colonels in the audience heard this, they were taken aback, looked at each other, and no one was speechless.
