In the early morning of the 25th, after crossing the pass of Mt. Anjura, there was no need to climb the mountain for the rest of the journey to Lingzhi.

The lack of oxygen at high altitudes not only causes altitude sickness, but also overwhelms today's engines without a supercharger.

At an altitude of more than 4,000 meters, the engine power can theoretically drop by as much as three or four percent, and the car gives the driver the feeling of weakness and weakness.

When he stopped at the foot of the mountain to rest, Xie Wancheng sighed: "It's a lot of effort again, and then I can finally rush to Lingzhi in one bite." ”

"I think I have arranged the march very evenly, not fast or slow." Zhou Changfeng casually took the map and gestured with it, "There are still seven hundred miles left, and I can just arrive at noon tomorrow." ”

"Indeed, worthy of being a battalion commander."

Later, a signal corpsman came to report, saying that the follow-up troops had completed the emergency repair of the Nujiang steel cable suspension bridge and were now continuing on the road.

Originally, the distance between the large army and the battalion as the leading unit was only half a day's journey, but because of the delay caused by the attack on the drawbridge, the distance between the two has now been stretched to about 700 miles, that is, a day and a half of a journey.

"Call back, the ministry will follow the order of the Governor's Mansion and arrive in Lingzhi on time."

"There are mountains and mountains between Lingzhi and Baimagang, and when you arrive, the battle may be over." Liu Wanyun, who was on the side, said slowly.

"Then we have to go." Zhou Changfeng replied to her dryly.

He had never let his guard down on this woman, and no matter how obedient she was and how fanciful she was, he must not take it lightly.

Someone who catches a crab may be able to get their fingers pinched without paying attention, let alone this kind of professionally trained spies.

Before, Zhou Changfeng asked her if she should send a report if the sneak attack was successful, and the latter said yes. However, Zhou Changfeng still did not agree to let her generate electricity in the end, after all, there were no professionals in this area among the people, and it was likely that she would take advantage of the loophole.

For example, the code word for a successful sneak attack should have been "the grape trellis has fallen", if she lied that "the apple fell to the ground" was a code word for the success of the sneak attack, wouldn't it make the other party suspicious? What's more, she may also be secretly doing tricks in the process of encoding code words through the codebook.

Liu Wanyun leaned over to Zhou Changfeng's side and complained softly: "That blanket is not warm, I woke up cold several times when I went to bed last night." ”

Seeing her sticking so close, Xiao Li on the side reached out vigilantly and put his hand on the safety of the gun.

The smiling Zhou Changfeng stared at her and said jokingly: "It's okay to add a blanket, but it's not okay to ask someone to sleep with you." ”

The latter's cheeks were slightly red, and he muttered for a few seconds before whispering back, "You're thinking too much......"

Xie Wancheng, who walked over to report on the supply situation, heard the conversation between the two and stopped.

To be honest, he thinks it's really nothing to play with a female fine work, set up a tent, spread a blanket, and divide it by two, which is also a taste, after all, female fine work is not something that can be met casually.

However, it seems that his commander doesn't seem to mean that, which makes Xie Wancheng a little confused, you must know that the reason why Zhou Changfeng is very famous in the mixed third brigade is that he has excellent military quality, and secondly, he has always been romantic and likes to mess with flowers.

So when Zhou Changfeng threw the gun to Xia Xiaoshi when he was leaving the train station a few days ago, Xie Wancheng still felt that he was teasing the little girl again.

But now he doesn't seem to be interested in this female work at all? It's weird.

People who are used to eating meat dishes will suddenly switch to vegetarianism? Xie Wancheng didn't believe it.

Due to the good reports on the battle situation at the front in the past two days, it can be said that good news has been reported frequently, so the whole army has also relaxed a lot, and the tight string in their hearts has also loosened a lot.

So now Xie Wancheng dared to bring up other topics, "By the way, battalion commander, don't you have any plans to get married?" After I wait for this class teacher, I will take a long leave and go back to my hometown to marry. ”

Zhou Changfeng didn't hear the first half of the sentence, but said calmly: "It's good, I'll prepare money for you when the time comes." ”

Seeing that he deliberately avoided the key question, Xie Wancheng simply asked, "What about you, battalion commander?" Among all the officers of the Third Brigade, you are the only one left who has not married. ”

"This may not be very important, let's talk about it later." Zhou Changfeng directly prevaricated vaguely.

He has now figured out what kind of character the original "Zhou Changfeng" is, although he is generally similar to himself, but his hobby of flowers and grass is really ......

As for the marriage, before the crossing, his plan was to wait for the thirty-year-old to retire and change jobs before going on a blind date, but his parents asked him to demobilize early and disrupted the plan, for which he also suffered a punishment, which can be described as extremely depressed.

And now, "Zhou Changfeng" is a family of four, and his father was an artillery officer of the New Army that year, and he was martyred in a border conflict with Tsarist Russia, when "Zhou Changfeng" was only a few years old. After that, only the mother was left as the backbone of the family, although he lost his husband early, but because the amount of pension was not low, he also survived the most difficult years.

Because of the loss of her husband, her mother has always opposed her son's re-enlistment in the army, for fear of repeating the mistakes of the past, and "Zhou Changfeng" has a bad relationship with her, which can be described as very rebellious. Fortunately, there was a sister as an intermediary to reconcile, and in the end, it also went along with his wishes.

However, two years ago, "Zhou Changfeng" studied mobile unit tactics at the French Saumir Cavalry School, and then went to the Third Cavalry Division of the French Army for exchange and study.

Thinking of this, Zhou Changfeng added, "Besides, I haven't been worried about it yet, so don't think about it." ”

It has been a tradition since ancient times that people need to mourn after the death of their parents, and to rule the world with filial piety, civil officials usually serve three or twenty-seven months of mourning, while military attaches only give 100 days of leave.

However, in order to adapt to the fast-paced industrial society, this tradition has been greatly changed - the mourning leave is unified to 100 days, after which he will be reinstated, but no weddings, celebrations, or feasts are allowed for 27 months.

On this day, when the first battalion was still rushing to Lingzhi in a hurry, the Ming army on the Assam front had already noticed the abnormality.

The 3rd Battalion of the 105th Regiment of the 34th Division ran into the Anglo-Indian troops who were in full position in the early hours of the morning, and organized several attacks in succession without success; After the arrival of the main force of the regiment, the tentative attack and the formal attack continued until the evening of the same day, but the breakthrough was not reached, so the offensive was aborted.

Not only the 105th Regiment, but several units on the entire front encountered the same situation - the enemy army, which had been repeatedly defeated and constantly retreated, stabilized its position?

Should we look for weak joints in the enemy line to continue the offensive, or should we stop the offensive and start a standoff?

Tan Xuan, commander of the 34th Division, ordered the offensive to be stopped, and all units turned to defense on the spot, and only small reconnaissance detachments or patrols were allowed to be dispatched; At the same time, this situation was immediately telegraphed to Lingzhi's rear command.
