Chapter 4 How many shots can be fired in battle to be worthy of the emperor?
Zhou Changfeng did not think deeply about the reasons, the military is the continuation of politics, and it is indispensable to consider and weigh it comprehensively, not to mention that the military deployment that has been decided is not something that he can question and influence now.
"Leave tomorrow morning at six o'clock, right?" He asked without looking back.
"That's right, the ferries at Xiaguan Wharf are in place, and we will be the first to cross the river." Xie Wancheng replied immediately.
Walking on the road of the camp, Zhou Changfeng thought that he could feel the desolation of being about to go on an expedition, but all he heard along the way was laughter?
He stopped in front of a barracks for a few seconds, then pushed the door open, followed by Xie Wancheng hurriedly followed.
His hair was shaved, his suicide note was written, and he was still more than an hour before bedtime, so when Zhou Changfeng walked into the house, the soldiers inside were laughing and laughing and playing cards.
The packed bags were placed next to the bed, the slender rifles rested on the bed, and the slender-headed guys sat around the floor, smoking cigarettes and holding cards, and beer bottles beside them.
Under the bright yellow chandelier, the smoke was filled, and the smell of cigarettes and alcohol came to his face, and Zhou Changfeng couldn't help frowning slightly.
Seeing his sudden arrival, the soldiers reacted very quickly, spit out their cigarettes, threw their cards, and stood up with a sway.
The squad leader at the head said embarrassedly: "Battalion... Battalion commander ......"
Zhou Changfeng ignored it, just casually pointed to a soldier and asked calmly, "It's going to be pulled out immediately, how do you feel?" ”
The latter, who was a little embarrassed, hesitated for a moment, and replied loudly: "Back to the chief, the boundaries of the Celestial Empire are strictly scaled, and even if an inch of land is not allowed to be compromised, this time ......"
This is obviously what the brigade commander said at the swearing-in ceremony this morning!
Zhou Changfeng waved his hand, "I'm asking how you feel." ”
The soldier was stunned, "Uh... We all have Yingyi, and they have a head on one body, and two holes are shot with one shot, I'm afraid that he will do something and fuck him!"
"What about you?" Zhou Changfeng looked at the other person again.
"It is our duty to carry guns and eat food, and to protect the territory and the people. Yingyi's army is also second-rate, and there is nothing to fear. ”
The crisp and neat answers of the two made Zhou Changfeng laugh dumbly, he nodded with satisfaction, but suddenly had a strange question in his heart, so he asked half-jokingly: "Is it worthy of the emperor to put three shots in battle?" ”
Everyone present was collectively stunned by this inexplicable question and looked at each other.
After a while, the soldier whispered, "At least one or two enemies must be killed......
Realizing that his joke was a bit abrupt, Zhou Changfeng coughed dryly twice, waved his hand, and said while turning around: "It's okay to smoke, but it's not okay to drink, withdraw it, and drink it again tomorrow when you get on the train." ”
Don't ask for anything else, even according to the Ming army's regulations, drinking in the army is restricted, and only a few cases are allowed to drink.
Having said that, the optimism and self-confidence of the soldiers made Zhou Changfeng very satisfied - when he heard the battle, he was happy and calm, this is a strong army.
As for this disciplinary violation, which is not big or small... It is not serious in nature, and it is a special period, so there is no need to study and demand.
After completing his rounds, he returned to his room to pack his belongings.
Documents, guns, watches, compasses, binoculars...... Collecting it, he felt something hard in the pocket inside his shirt and pulled it out.
Wasn't this the young woman in the ward at the time sent it in a fit of rage?
Looking at the little jade pendant that was used as a talisman, Zhou Changfeng struggled for a moment and put it in the drawer, but took it out again after a few seconds.
Forget it, take it, maybe it really works? And in any case, it's also someone's heart.
However, he didn't even know what the woman's name was, only that he had heard that the woman was a teacher in the school, and that he had thanked her for saving her students from car accidents.
You can't give yourself a pennant or something?
Brush his teeth, wash his face, soak his feet, and there are still a few bruises and scratches on his body, Zhou Changfeng lay on the bed, but as soon as he turned over, he grinned in pain, and could only lie upright.
"Hey, it didn't hurt much before."
In fact, there is no other reason, but the effect of aspirin is almost over.
Although he was a little injured, on the first night after the crossing, Zhou Changfeng slept peacefully and deeply, and he didn't even have a dream.
In the early hours of the next morning, the dark night had not yet completely faded, and the eastern sky had just revealed the whiteness of the fish's belly, but the whole camp was already lively.
The cooks and men in the canteen were busy as early as halfway through the day, and a large pile of steamed buns and fried dough sticks were steaming, and everyone could eat breakfast immediately after getting up.
When Zhou Changfeng arrived, everyone had been waiting for a long time, and Xie Wancheng, who was dressed neatly, saluted with his fists and reported: "Battalion commander, as of now, five people have not healed, six people have not recovered from their injuries, and the rest of the eight hundred and five officers and soldiers have all arrived. ”
"Let's go!" Zhou Changfeng spat out two words very succinctly.
In addition to the lack of ammunition, the soldiers were now fully armed, with steel helmets on their heads, rifles on their shoulders, and personal equipment such as water bottles, bayonets, shovels, and gas masks on their waists.
Trucks full of soldiers drove out of the barracks, followed by trucks carrying communications equipment, towing artillery of various types, and carrying field medical equipment......
Unlike the bustling urban area, the station located in the southwest of Jiangdongmen is a suburb of the city, adjacent to the Yangtze River, and is relatively deserted.
The long convoy of cars on the outskirts of the city marched through the streets of the suburbs, and the midsummer morning, when there was only the sound of cicadas, made a big commotion because of it.
In the vicinity of Shimonoseki Wharf, there were more pedestrians and civilian vehicles along the way, and it was now approaching morning, and the huge Jingshi had already woken up from a night's sleep.
Beijing has a railway station on both sides of the Yangtze River, at this time there is no Yangtze River bridge, the train wants to cross the river, then it has to be transported through a special train ferry to the front and carriage section by section.
Naturally, the army would not do anything more, so they first crossed the river by boat and then got on the train.
At this moment, in the Jiangbei Railway Station, the two platforms were specially separated and put on the cordon; Eight long trains are waiting in a silent line, with roaring cranes and pumps filling them with coal and water.
A slender figure hurried into the waiting hall, and instead of buying a ticket or taking the train, she looked left and right and found a nearby railway policeman from the inspection department.
"Mr. Officer, where is the army coming to stop?"
"I specially opened the road behind the delivery for them......" The iron policeman replied casually, and then said in surprise: "What do you do with this?" ”
"Hmm...... There's an official inside who took my stuff by mistake, and I... I'm going to get it back. ”
The iron police couldn't help but want to laugh when he heard this, and he replied patiently: "Pansy, you Ergolang, go and ask for something from the Qiu Ba who are going to be promoted?" It's not fun to talk about yourself. When he finished speaking, he waved her hand and told her to hurry away.
