Section 5 The Great War is coming

"Stone, in my opinion, there should not be any cavalry company at all, listen to the chief of staff, a livestock can eat better than us in a day, in addition to forage, in order to ensure the physical strength of the war horse, you have to feed the beans, it took so much effort to exchange for a knife to chop a round of salvo, there is a fart, and the horse itself is high, people riding on it have become a target, the devil's machine gun burst out, even the people and horses have to be finished." After the officers left, only Liu Wenfeng and Shi were left here, and the life and death of more than a year have made them have a tacit understanding unimaginable between them, and the difference in their identities has become minimal.

Listening to Liu Wenfeng's words, Shi thought of the bloody battle in Sanyi Village, and thought of the shocking momentum when the Japanese cavalry pounced in front of him, the kind of overwhelming momentum, which made him have no power to fight back at all, and destroyed their morale in one fell swoop, if the 306th Regiment did not arrive in time to support, obviously, not only their 302nd Regiment, but also the 305th Regiment commanded by Commander Zhang could not escape the consequences of the annihilation of the whole army.

The war horse charge that has been accelerated to the extreme is really too terrible, it was the first time that the stone fell into a situation where his fate could not be grasped at all, and gave him a hard blow to the weakest part of his heart, therefore, he couldn't help but think of the cavalry counterattack encountered in the inner Yellow City, the heads of his comrades flying under the waving of the saber, that kind of blood and shock, made the stone like crazy in the bottom of his heart a thought, cavalry, he must form a cavalry unit, The pain inflicted on them by the enemy must be completely returned to the devil.

"Stones, I can't afford to raise them!" Liu Wenfeng looked at the stone's indifferent appearance, and couldn't help but say louder: "Friendly troops use war horses as trophies, just to equip them for scouts, in order to facilitate reconnaissance of the enemy situation and convey orders, they are not used for war at all, you are good, take the light and heavy machine guns collected to change the war horses, do you know, those battalion commanders and regiment commanders all smiled when they heard this, this is a good thing that pie fell from the sky and smashed into the mouth!" Although this horse is running fast, what can we raise when we can't even fill our stomachs? It's been two months, and the little money we've saved up from so many battles has all been put into it. ”

Liu Wenfeng became more and more angry the more he talked, and in the end he scolded the stone unceremoniously, without any sense of concept and consciousness of superiors and subordinates.

After Shi finished speaking, he said lightly: "We have fought so many battles with devils, how many battles have we won?" If you want to talk about weapons, there are more allies stronger than us, why are you still losing all the way? Can you win with more guns? If this is the case, wouldn't the Kyoto garrison be invincible on the battlefield with one * in hand? ”

Liu Wenfeng looked at the stone in astonishment, not knowing what he meant by this, but he could obviously feel that the stone in front of him seemed to be a little different from a few months ago, but he couldn't say what was the difference.

"Crazy, go get busy, I'll be alone and tell the monkey, Yidao, Cheng Chong and their company commanders, ready to participate in the war at any time, sometimes don't think so long-term, the next battle, maybe they will all be finished, what are you thinking about so much?" After speaking, the stone tried hard to squeeze out a smile at Liu Wenfeng, but the burden on him was too heavy, it seemed that he had forgotten how to laugh, and the smile looked in Liu Wenfeng's eyes, as bitter as he wanted, which made Liu Wenfeng's heart soft, and he couldn't help but think that the stone was just in his early 20s, and a year ago he was an idiot who didn't know anything, and suddenly he had to shoulder the burden of life and death of two or three thousand brothers, which was really a little overwhelming.

"Stone, have time to rest for a while, there are too many things, you can never be busy, if you are tired and lie down, our group will be finished." After Liu Wenfeng thought about it, he finally slowed down his voice and said with concern, and left in great strides, leaving only a stone and a single figure standing in the originally lively woods.

Shi looked at Liu Wenfeng's figure leaving and was speechless for a long time, and his originally upright body seemed to be bent a lot at this moment.

On the day of the erection, the 302nd Regiment received the news from the brigade headquarters that the Japanese Taiwan Infantry Brigade arrived on the shore of Poyang Lake, and under the cover of naval guns, landed in the pass area south of Xingzikou, opening up a third battlefield, and the 153rd Brigade had already galloped to the front line to participate in the battle, wanting to build a position at the pass before the Japanese army and arrive at the enemy's attack.

If yesterday's meeting only made them feel that they were about to enter the war, today's news clearly told them that the current situation has reached the point where they need to participate in the war at any time, and the difficulty of resisting the attack of an infantry brigade of the Japanese army with the 153 Brigade can be imagined, and the greatest possibility is that they will be put into the front of the Eastern Front as a reserve.

Their slightly excited anticipation only lasted for half a day before it came to an abrupt end, and the news came from the Eastern Front that the 153rd Brigade had fought bloodily for half a day, repelled the Japanese attack, the battle line had stabilized, and the Japanese army's move to open up a third battlefield did not achieve much results.

Just when everyone was in doubt, on May 24, Zhou Zhidao, the commander of the 151st Brigade, rushed to the hill where the headquarters of the 302nd Regiment was located with a cadre of officers.

Shi saw Zhou Zhidao again, the rank of major general on the collar of the brigade commander shone with a stunning light, which made him involuntarily nervous, after receiving the news, he immediately summoned the main officers of the 302nd Regiment to usher in the joint meeting, accompanied by the long distance, he shouted loudly: "Salute!" ”

More than ten officers in a platoon straightened their bodies one by one and held their right hands, looking respectfully at the brigade commander who came over, even the second battalion commander Hu Liqun did not dare to make the slightest mistake, he could put his qualifications in front of the stones, but in the face of Zhou Zhidao, who participated in the Northern Expedition in 1926, his "qualifications" were really not worth it, and there was no comparison at all.

"Stone, what are you kid hiding in this mountain nest all day long, tinkering with something?" Zhou Zhidao had a warm smile on his face, his pace was steady, his demeanor was calm, and he couldn't see the eagerness and uneasiness that the big war had begun, and in the face of the 302nd regiment officers' welcome in formation, he raised his hand to return the salute while staring at the stone and smiled.

This is in stark contrast to the situation when he saw the stone for the first time and barely looked at him, unconsciously, this "idiot" is already the head of a group, a fierce general appointed by the division himself, even if he is still a long distance away from him, but who can guarantee that he will not rise in a short time? This made Zhou Zhidao also quite intimate and joked with the stone, deliberately getting closer to each other.

Shi immediately said nervously: "Brigade seat, my subordinates have been busy reorganizing the army recently, and they have not gone to the brigade headquarters to listen to orders, and they are willing to be punished for their inappropriate behavior." ”

"Haha, you kid is scolding me for not distinguishing right from wrong, and bullying others! If we also have to be punished for training with peace of mind, then wouldn't those of us who eat dry food all day be pulled out and shot? Zhou Zhidao laughed, and immediately made all the officers around him laugh.

This made Shi even more uneasy, and he said more and more respectfully: "This is not what the subordinates mean, the brigade is busy with military affairs, and is concerned about the life and death of five or six thousand soldiers in the first brigade, and the ministers and officials work all day long, and they are also models and examples for us. ”

"What subordinates are not subordinates, how many times have I said it before, I am obsessed with how old you are, just shout my brother, serve the party and the state, fight for the survival of the nation, such a life, it is really unnecessary, you must know that we people may sacrifice their lives for the country one day, what official positions and military ranks are just false names, what is the use." Zhou Zhidao still said with a flat smile, every word made people feel like a spring breeze, and he couldn't help but become more and more respectful.

"Brigade seat ......" Shi Shi's heart tightened, and the two words couldn't help blurting out, but he saw Zhou Zhidao waving his hand at him and interrupting his words.

"Also, you are now the commander of a regiment, the head of three thousand soldiers, and these staff adjutants at the brigade headquarters must also obey your dispatch command, so don't shout anything like that, you want to let them die." Brigade Commander Zhou said another word of concern to him, and immediately made the staff adjutants on the side salute again to show respect.

Seeing that Shi returned the salute with great respect, Zhou Zhidao nodded with a smile, and at the same time said to everyone: "You guys go and rest first, I have something to discuss with Head Shi." ”

After persuading everyone to retreat, seeing that the woods within a radius of dozens of steps were already empty, Zhou Zhidao couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction, looking at the stone still respectfully waiting for him to speak, he couldn't help but smile and said: "Brother Shi, take it easy, you are now the head of the regiment, the pillar of the party and the state, naturally you must have the consciousness and style of the official, otherwise the people below will not know how many catties and taels they weigh." ”

The stone was startled, and suddenly thought of Hu Liqun's incident two days ago, which reached the ears of the brigade so quickly? Immediately, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, Brigade Commander Zhou is high, the commander of the first brigade, how can there be a lack of people who drill the camp below, and I am afraid that any movement here will not be able to hide from the brigade.

Just when he was thinking like this, Zhou Zhidao suddenly sighed and said: "Stone, Ruichang is lost, the division orders our 151st Brigade to immediately launch a counterattack and take Ruichang back, this time I came to you just to hear your opinion." ”

"What? Ruichang is lost? How can it be? Where did the devil come from? Shi was still thinking about the things here in the regiment, and he was suddenly startled by the words of the brigade commander, and immediately shouted incredulously.
