under fire

Chapter 655
I have to say that the national army is indeed well-equipped. After entering the village, I saw a submachine gun hanging around the neck along the way.

Dozens of mountain cannons were lined up in camouflage.

More than a dozen military vehicles entangled with branches stopped at the entrance of the village.

The pack horses of the brigade neighed occasionally.

Accompanied by people coming and going, it is more lively than going to the market.

A Jimmy ten-wheel truck steel monster under maintenance, the whining roar directly made the girl dumbfounded.

Half an hour had passed since the friendly soldiers who followed the reception arrived at the broken yard, and no one came to ask any more.

Twenty or thirty heads are popping out of the courtyard wall, looking excitedly at the cannons and cars at the entrance of the village.

The military police of the national army who came on patrol occasionally looked suspiciously at the people on the wall, greeted the guards at the door, and after clarifying the situation, they began to yell at the soldiers walking around the village to observe discipline, so that the bumpkins would open their eyes. What is a regular army!
The two guards guarding the door looked at the bumpkins who had never seen the world on the wall, and one of them shook his head: "Balu blows cowhide all day long, I didn't expect to be so virtuous."

The other lowered his voice: "Hey, didn't you call them bandits before?"

"Look at their bears, they probably pee their pants when they see the devils!"

"The staff officer asked us to entertain them well. If they want to go out, what should we do?" Among them rolled their eyes and raised their voice deliberately.

The other immediately understood and said loudly: "Hehe, if they want to go out, we just don't have to guard this broken yard, and take the opportunity to move around."

There was no movement for a long time, and one of the guards who wanted to show off was puzzled: "Why are they lying on the wall and not moving?"

In the yard, the girl who had been listening to the guard's conversation with her ears perked up said, "Big dog, let's go out for a stroll!"

"What the hell is there to be a fart, they will deliver food in a while, how comfortable it is to stay here with someone serving you." The big dog who was snoring and snoring next to the kennel at the door didn't even open his eyes. Not interested.

The girl turned to look at the big man lying on the wall: "Li Huanzhang, let's go out and have a look?"

The man on the wall didn't even look back: "Isn't that good? Will they say we spy on the military?"

"Let the two at the door take it, isn't it considered spying on the military situation?"

"Do you want to ask Hu Lian, Staff Officer Hu first?"

"Coward!" The girl turned around and jumped into the room after she finished speaking.

Hu Yi was sitting at the broken table discussing the details of the upcoming exchange with Minister Zhang who was pretending to be an instructor.

Footsteps came from the door, and a loud voice said, "Fox, I want to go out and have a look."

Minister Zhang who was sitting in the room was stunned for a moment, then turned his black face: "It's not big or small, call it the staff officer!"

The girl quickly shrank her neck: "Report. That trainer, hehe, I'm used to it!"

"Aren't there guards standing guard? Can you go out?"

"I heard from the two guards that they wish we could go out."

Hu Yi shook his head: "It's a big taboo to spy on other people's military situation. I think it's better to wait!"

"You make sense." Minister Zhang nodded, and then turned his head seriously: "Comrade Hongying, stay in the yard well and don't tarnish the face of our Eighth Route Army!"

Not long after, there was a sound of footsteps outside the yard.

A tall man with the rank of major general came to the gate of the yard, but before he arrived, he rushed into the yard with a loud voice: "Please inform Staff Officer Hu, Li Zhenqing is here to pay a special visit, my brother is far away, and I hope Haihan!"

During the speech, the etiquette was thoughtful, let someone inform you first, and then you stood at the gate of the yard with the guards.

This loud voice directly knocked down the crowd of two hundred and five climbing the wall.

Could it be that the person who just came here is the head of the national army who came to meet him?
Could it be that the two collar badges on his neck are the legendary military ranks?

What level is a three-pointed star?
The big dog at the door was awakened, its eyes widened and it was about to curse, but suddenly saw the star of the major general, stood up quickly, and saluted subconsciously: "Hello, sir!"

The people who came noticed that there was still a person nestled at the door, so they quickly turned their heads to look at this person, feeling a little surprised in their hearts, the patched and broken military uniform, didn't the eight roads say that the chief is okay?
I wondered: what is the origin of this person?
Could it be that for the sake of this exchange, Eight Roads even told them how to call them?

Well, Balu still attaches great importance to this exchange, and immediately has a good impression in his heart, and he smiled and raised his hand in return: "Hello!"

Hearing the sound of footsteps, he turned his head to look at the house in the yard, and two people were coming out. Not surprisingly, these two were the right ones.

Everyone who fell off the wall, seeing this guy saluting back to the big dog, hurriedly followed the salute, but no one saw it.
"Hu Yi, the staff officer of the Independent Regiment, was ordered to communicate with your ministry, please give me instructions!" The Eighth Route Army has no military rank, and Hu Yi saw that the person who came was actually a major general!A little shocked in my heart, I immediately stood at attention, the standard of military etiquette, neither humble nor overbearing.

"Brother, Commander of the [-]th Division, Li Zhenqing, you have come from a long way, you have worked hard." Looking at the gray and old military uniform in front of him, the broken military cap bent into an arc, and the narrow eyes showing the cold air, the person in front of him fell down. He looked upright and stern, and looked like he must have fought through mountains of corpses and seas of blood. He was quite different from the eight roads he had seen before, so he couldn't help secretly praising him for being a good man.

"Mr. Li, you are welcome! In the room, please!" Hu Yi was a little excited. It had been five years, and he had once again met an officer of the national army that he was familiar with before. Itchy, quickly adjust your breathing and return to calm.

"Brother prepare a little wine, please give me a favor from Staff Officer Hu!" Master Li didn't move, and stretched out his hand with a smile as a gesture of invitation.

Minister Zhang next to him was familiar: "Hello, Chief Li. I am the instructor of the Independent Regiment. My surname is Zhang. I have admired Master Li's name for a long time, and my ears are like thunder!"

"Instructor Zhang, hello, I have long heard that eight-way fighters are not afraid of violence or death, defending your home and country, and you are all good!" , naturally became defensive.

"This time, I have caused trouble for you!" Minister Zhang smiled heartily. With many years of experience in political work, he immediately saw through the intention of the person opposite him: it's not easy to deal with.

Commander Li was about to greet, when a tender female voice suddenly appeared next to him: "Hello, Commander Li, I'm Chang Hongying, captain of the militia!"

Li Zhenqing quickly turned his head and looked behind Staff Hu. The man squeezed out between the two of them. He saw that this man was not much taller than a rifle. He was wrapped in a thin military uniform and looked at him with big clear eyes. The daughter is not much younger!
"Captain Chang Hongying, right? Hello!" There are also female soldiers in the national army, usually radio operators, and female soldiers have to serve the telegraph machine. Maybe Balu has a radio station, but now we are going to treat guests to dinner. Would you please?
I couldn't help but hesitate for a moment, women don't give in to men, since they are all anti-Japanese teams: "Three, the banquet is ready, please?"

Turning around on his own, as soon as he arrived at the door, a big and thick bear stepped forward and saluted: "Luo Fugui, commander of the third company of the Ninth Battalion, met Mr. Li!"

Hearing that there was a banquet, this one couldn't sit still.

Master Li hurriedly turned his head: "It's such a big bear, if it's carrying a mortar, I don't even need to withdraw the hoe!"

Ten minutes later, Commander Li, who originally only invited Staff Officer Hu, had to invite all the eight parties to communicate with him to his division headquarters.

The kitchen keeps delivering food. Is it the Chinese New Year?
The two hundred and five were sitting upright, dazzled. Is this still a field army?

The table is full of "meat": chickens, ducks, fish, pigs, beef and sheep, all of which are not lacking.
Fancy platters, cold dishes in winter, soups, braised, fried, stewed, steamed.
The key is wine.
