Chapter XVI: Evacuation
Back in the dormitory, Zhang Xiaofan, who had been tired all day, was just about to go to bed to rest, when an annoying knock on the door woke him up again, and Zhang Xiaofan opened the door with some irritability.
Looking at the cowering appearance of the group of people in front of him, and listening to Zhang Daguang's incessant chatter on the side, Zhang Xiaofan's head also had a faint pain.
These people are not wanted by other squads, and they are also engaged in non-combat work from the beginning, although they will also have various military skills, but they are far from being compared with the soldiers who have been fighting on the front line for a long time, plus some of them rely on the special relationship with some leaders in the regiment to inevitably make things difficult for these soldiers, and now that the catastrophe is coming, it is strange that those soldiers can give them a good face.
But Zhang Xiaofan's previous cruel words have been released, and it is not appropriate to force these people into anyone. It's not good to let them fend for themselves, they are comrades-in-arms of a group, and they can be regarded as having a skill, and these people are indispensable for the development of his power in the future.
After thinking for a while, Zhang Xiaofan said; "Let's do it, I still have a few trucks that were originally used to pull weapons and ammunition, so I'll give you a few first."
Hearing Zhang Xiaofan's words, the lowered heads of these people in front of them immediately raised their heads, and their eyes exuded excitement.
"However, from now on, you must also participate in training on time, and at critical moments, only you can protect you," Zhang Xiaofan said.
"Got it. In the future, we will definitely pay close attention to training and never delay the fighters. A group of people said babbling.
"Also," Zhang Xiaofan added; "Be polite to the grassroots soldiers in the future, you have to rely on them to save your life at critical moments, now you know?"
A curse in the crowd swore: "Certainly, definitely, in the future, we will treat the grassroots soldiers badly again, and there will be five thunderstorms in the sky." ”
"Alright, alright," Zhang Xiaofan shook his head helplessly; "This group of people see the wind and the ability to steer the rudder, which is called a perfect fire."
Zhang Xiaofan continued; "If it's nothing, you guys just go out first, hurry up and train more, maybe you can use it at a critical moment."
After sending this group of people away, Zhang Xiaofan shook his head tiredly, lay on the bed and hurried to catch up on sleep.
……
A month has passed in the blink of an eye, and the time to come back sooner or later.
As soon as it was dawn that day, a terrible whistle sounded and the soldiers of the 115th Regiment cried out of their sleep.
Because of their psychological preparation in advance, the soldiers of the 115th Regiment appeared to be in an orderly manner, and everyone packed their belongings.
Maybe I was a little worried about the road ahead, so the atmosphere was a little dull, and no one said much.
So people packed up their belongings, everyone lined up on the playground and stood up, and after a solemn oath, the regimental flag of the 115th Regiment was slowly lowered.
Zhang Xiaofan looked at everything in front of him, this is where he has been fighting for three years, it is impossible to say that there is no emotion, but in terms of the unknown future, everything is so insignificant.
All the actions have been rehearsed countless times, first of all, the people of the front guard go first, and after half an hour, the people of the rear guard go again,
As for why it was half an hour apart, according to the deputy head of the regiment Meng Jianguo, it was to prevent getting too close, you chased after me, and the two sides got mixed up.
However, what neither Zhang Xiaofan nor Wang Gui knew was that the entire northern defense line had begun a large-scale withdrawal of troops half a month earlier, and now the roads behind the northern defense line have long been obscured, and vehicles are one after another, day and night, and the river is endless.
Zhang Xiaofan's 115th Regiment was the last to retreat from the entire 28th Division, while the 28th Division was the last to retreat from the entire 13th Group Army, and the 13th Group Army was ranked at the bottom of the entire northern defense line retreat sequence.
So when Zhang Xiaofan and the others retreated, the entire northern defense line already had a large section of no man's land, and an astonishing number of armor beasts had also swarmed in from these places. Whether they left half an hour earlier or half an hour late, it was unlikely that they would evacuate to their destination safely.
After the people of the avant-garde team were gone, Zhang Xiaofan waited for a while, and only after about the time was about the same, he shouted and set off, and the entire rearguard set off immediately, and for a while, the roar of various vehicles shook the sky, so it was not lively.
Zhang Xiaofan sat on the off-road vehicle given to him by Dong Sanchuan, and five large trucks lined up behind him, followed by a full 500 motorcycles. In the end, five more cars were broken. Everything was well arranged and well organized.
Because it was the dreadmill that traded with Dong Sanchuan, all Zhang Xiaofan's car-for-car plan was not implemented. These ten big trucks are still in Zhang Xiaofan's hands. However, Zhang Xiaofan did not let them be idle, the fuel, weapons and ammunition were full of oil, weapons and ammunition, and Zhang Daguang and other non-combatants were also in the car. As for the armored car, Zhang Xiaofan thought that he was spending gas, and he had already returned it to Wang Gui and them.
Zhang Xiaofan's destination is Weizhou City, which coincides with Dong Sanchuan's place.
The whole convoy walked on the desolate next door, and because of the need to maintain the formation, they did not move very fast, about 40 kilometers per hour.
At this rate, they can reach Weizhou City in just one day, but Zhang Xiaofan also knows that it is impossible. So he carried enough supplies to last for three days.
What he didn't expect was that the team had to stop just a short time after driving.
It turned out that he was stopped, and the person who intercepted him, Zhang Xiaofan, also knew that it was Zhou Wei's father and daughter.
Since Zhang Xiaofan reminded him several times last time, Zhou Wei also wanted to leave as soon as possible, but in those days, Zhou Wei had more and more work in his hands, and the money he earned was several times that of usual.
Two days ago, I was busy with the work in my hand and was just about to leave, when I met a group of soldiers who couldn't help but say that they had looted his family's vehicle and all valuable things. Not only have they worked hard for a few days, but even the vehicles that escaped for their lives have been robbed.
Just when the family was in despair, Zhou Qian suddenly thought that Zhang Xiaofan had told her that she could go to him as a last resort, so she rushed over in a panic.
Looking at the money-hungry father and daughter, Zhang Xiaofan was angry and funny, opened the car door and let the two of them in, and then continued to hurry.
What Zhang Xiaofan didn't expect was that it was the people of the 115th Regiment who robbed him, and those people were members of the avant-garde. It turned out that Wang Gui finally couldn't hold on in the face of the increasingly tense situation, so he had to make this decision, and went to Liusha Town to grab it in the name of army recruitment, and finally got the required vehicles.
Ignoring this little episode, Zhang Xiaofan's convoy continued on the road, and at noon, Zhang Xiaofan ordered everyone to rest, eat by the way, and refuel the vehicle to make it all in a full state.
Just as everyone was about to continue on their way, a fierce gunfire suddenly came from afar. After a while, a man ran over panting.
The person who came was really Wang Gui's correspondent, named Zhang Qiang. When he saw Zhang Xiaofan, he panted; "Deputy Commander Zhang, our regiment is surrounded. He also asked Deputy Regiment Commander Zhang to send troops to rescue him as soon as possible. ”
Zhang Xiaofan said; "How many dreadmongers are there?"
Zhang Qiang said; "All over the mountains, a lot."
Zhang Xiaofan immediately said; "One battalion will follow me, and the others will stand by."
When Zhang Xiaofan led the first battalion to feel it, the scene in front of him almost didn't make Zhang Xiaofan angry.
