Chen Shichang took the telegram and looked at it. His expression became a little agitated. After the annihilation of the Second Air Regiment in Anqing, the Japanese Yangtze River Fleet became the biggest threat to Madang Fortress. Ouyang Yun's previous plan was to show the enemy weakness in the early stage, so in the face of the provocation of the Yangtze River fleet, the fortress artillery and the heavy artillery concentrated by the corps showed restraint. The restraint of the defenders made the devils of the Yangtze River Fleet mistakenly believe that the artillery bombardment had achieved results, so they behaved more and more arrogantly during this time, and the closest time they were to the fortress, they actually broke through within five kilometers. The rampant operation of the Yangtze River Fleet made the artillerymen very indignant, they did not know the plan of the command headquarters, and they were very puzzled by the fact that they were afraid of the enemy and avoided the battle despite their own ability to fight back, and they had already made trouble with Chen Shichang more than once. Chen Shichang handed the telegram back to Huang Hua, and then said excitedly: "Brigade Commander Zhang complained to me some time ago, saying that the brothers below are in a great mood, and now, it's time to give the little devil a little color!" ”

Ouyang Yun took a sip of tea and said coldly: "If you don't fight, it's enough, if you want to fight, you will completely hurt them." By the way, Qi Yonghui, how are they doing recently, I'll go and see them after lunch. ”

Qi Yonghui is the leader of the torpedo group and a blasting expert of the Wolf Tooth Special Brigade.

He also has a lot of opinions, saying that he knew that Lu Dao had no task, so it was better to follow Xiao Yi to go out on a mission. Commander-in-Chief, do you have time now? ”

"Huh?"

"There's something I'd like to talk to you about."

Looking at Chen Shichang's serious appearance, Ouyang Yun was slightly surprised, and then, he noticed that Chen Shichang's gaze swept over Takahashi Yoshiko intentionally or unintentionally, understood, and said, "Okay, then let's go outside." ”

As for the Guangzhou branch of the Anti-War League, there were many people who opposed it within the Cadet Army. Perhaps because Ouyang Yun himself was extremely hostile to Japan, there were many anti-Japanese elements in the Cadet Army, and it was precisely because of the spread of this sentiment that they always maintained a suspicious attitude towards anti-war activists from Japan such as Takahashi. In this way, it is not difficult to understand that they are opposed to this matter.

Ouyang Yun and Chen Shichang walked out of the headquarters one after the other, and stood under a crooked-necked cedar tree, Ouyang Yun asked, "Shichang, what's the matter?" You look very serious. ”

"It's about Miss Ryoko, many people in the command feel that there is a risk of leaking secrets by letting her stay in the headquarters, and they don't dare to think about your proposal in person, so they found me."

This problem was realized by Ouyang Yun from the first time Takahashi entered the command headquarters, so he didn't care what Takahashi himself thought, he immediately selected two capable female soldiers from the Niangzi Yunwei Regiment and placed them beside her in the name of protection.

Under the training of the water red sleeves and white tassels, the Niangzi Yunwei Regiment is not what it used to be, and its combat effectiveness and business ability have been greatly improved. Considering their status as women, Shui Hongsleeves made a special request to make a batch of glorious bullets in case they might be captured and used to kill themselves.

When Shui Hongsleeve first submitted this plan, Ouyang Yun was extremely opposed. Although he came from later generations, he was far more enlightened than the people of the present era, but in fact, he was still very macho in his heart. He stubbornly believed that women, as weak people, should be protected and should stay away from war. So for the first time, he vetoed the proposal without consulting anyone at all. The original intention of the establishment of the Women's Army was just to solve the livelihood of the "female bandits" who came down from Eagle Cliff Mountain, but what he didn't expect was that the Women's Army actually had such a good soil for growth, and her development soon departed from this original intention. As for the addition of Bai Tassel, he later replaced Liu Kui and their position and became Ouyang Yun's guard unit.

He said to the water red sleeves and the white tassels at that time: "Letting you women go to the battlefield is already the limit of what I can accept, how can I accept such a cruel proposal now?" Don't even think about it, don't worry, you won't be in this situation! The men of the Cadet Army are not dead yet! ”

He said this as a matter of course, but he did not expect to be strongly protested by the military and political women representatives of the student army led by Shui Hongsleeves and Mei Lanshu, thinking that he was discriminating against women. Because of Mei Lanshu's participation, Shui Hongsleeves even produced a "volunteer letter" signed by all female soldiers, officially requiring that for the sake of their dignity, they must be allowed to equip glorious bullets to avoid being insulted.

In the end, Jiang Shuren came out to make peace and explained to Ouyang Yun, saying that it was just the commander-in-chief's kindness to care for female compatriots, not discriminating against them, so the matter was finally revealed.

Takahashi also had the Japanese accompanying the Guangzhou branch of the Anti-War League, which had already caused a bad influence in the minds of the officers and men of the Beishang Legion. Chen Shichang said very tactfully, and did not truthfully reflect the following situation, and if he relayed it truthfully, it was estimated that Ouyang Yun would definitely jump three feet high now.

Gao Qiao and the others accompanied the army, and they could play some irreplaceable roles in the deliberations of Ouyang Yun and the high-level of the Xuebing Army, but in the minds of the officers and soldiers at the middle and low levels, they thought that this was a decision made by the commander-in-chief in order to satisfy their own selfish desires. After all, the affair between the commander-in-chief and the Japanese woman was spread all over the city. The two sides consider the problem at different points of entry, and it is natural that misunderstandings will inevitably arise.

Chen Shichang said vaguely, Ouyang Yun has been staying in the headquarters these days, and he hasn't gone down, so he doesn't know, so he said to Chen Shichang on a case-by-case basis: "Don't worry about this, I have already arranged the women's army by her side." Even if she was really a Japanese spy, she would not have had a chance to send intelligence. Well, have these guys been idle lately and started to be full of nonsense? You go back and tell them that it is better to sleep more if you have this spare time, and then there will be a vicious battle. Well, I haven't gone down for a long time, it seems that these guys have itchy skin, and they don't want to think about it, are the people in our command all eating dry food? What they can think of, we can't think of? ”

Chen Shichang smiled bitterly, he couldn't resist the enthusiasm of his brothers, and when he agreed to come to the commander-in-chief for advice, he actually expected such an ending. However, even if it was just to help the Commander-in-Chief dispel the negative impression in the minds of his brothers, he felt that he had an obligation to find out the matter with the Commander-in-Chief. Zhilu Dao may have been unable to understand what he said just now, he thought for a while and said: "Commander-in-chief, people are terrible, I think it is better to keep a distance from Miss Liangzi under the current situation." After all, he was not a staff member of the command. ”

Ouyang Yun really didn't take this question seriously at first, but now, when he realized that Chen Shichang had something to say, he decided that it would be better to ask clearly. He asked, "What's going on?" Make it clear. ”

It's hard to say this, otherwise Chen Shichang wouldn't have talked about him at first. He grinned and said: "When I was in Guangzhou, originally, there were some bad and bad rumors about you and Miss Liangzi, in fact, everyone is also thinking about the commander-in-chief, they, they are afraid that you will be tempted by Miss Liangzi!" ”

"Ha Lu Ha!" Ouyang Yun laughed and laughed twice, he suddenly realized that things might not be as simple as he imagined, frowned and asked, "You tell me honestly, are there many people who have this kind of thinking?" ”

Chen Shichang nodded lightly.

Ouyang Yun raised his head and looked into the distance, where there were originally lush mountains and forests, but after the indiscriminate bombardment of the Japanese Yangtze River Fleet in the past few days, many places had turned gray and black. Wars between human beings hurt not only human beings, but also innocent nature. It's my own negligence, alas, why haven't I realized it yet, now, I'm the commander-in-chief of the student army, and I'm carrying the expectations of tens of millions of people, well, it seems that I really have to review it - I haven't put myself in the right position! As he thought about it, his heart grew heavy. He closed his eyes and thought for a while, then turned to Chen Shichang and said, "In the handling of this matter, I mishandled it. You go back and tell your brothers, just say that I have realized my mistake, Xie Lu, thank you for your reminder, I will pay attention to it in the future. ”

The larger the size of the Scholar Army, the more powerful Ouyang Yun became, even if he himself felt the same as before, but in the minds of others, he no longer dared to have such thoughts. Fortunately, there is also a hardcore cloud party like Chen Shichang, who wants to protect him from the bottom of his heart. Regardless of the legends outside, the old men of the Cadet Army who have been staying by his side and almost watching him grow up, in their minds, Ouyang Yun has not changed much. After all, they have had the experience of living and dying together, after all, Xuebing Jun is their child, just from these two points, they are also willing to loyally protect Ouyang Yun.

Chen Shichang "snapped" upright, saluted the military salute, and then presented a sycophant without a trace: "I'll just say, the commander-in-chief is not this kind of person, and those guys still don't believe it." Hehe, Commander-in-Chief, I'm completely relaxed now. ”

"Huh?"

"I was afraid you would be angry! Hey! ”

"You guy—itchy skin, huh?"

Ouyang Yun and Chen Shichang returned to the headquarters with a smile and a smile, and the staff in the headquarters glanced at each other, and the tense faces of many young staff officers finally relaxed. No matter what Ouyang Yun thought, they were doing confidential discussions under the attention of a Japanese woman, and that awkward feeling made them always suppress their true emotions and dare not express their opinions and argue too loudly, which undoubtedly affected their thinking ability and breadth.

Takahashi is a smart woman, she is very sensitive, so, although the young staff officers are very reserved, she still feels it. When Ouyang Yun and Chen Shichang walked in side by side, she knew that she wouldn't stay here for too long. Perhaps, it's time to find something to do - since you believe that this will help the country, then, no matter what others think, you have to go on bravely, even if it costs a lot - the Japanese woman thought to herself, biting her lip lightly, and soon made a decision.
