War of Resistance

Chapter 1288 Don't allow the world to see white heads

Cold meals are probably not very tasty, and it may also have something to do with Zhang Tianhai's current mood.

As the former commander-in-chief who presided over the overall work of the Ninth Theater's security forces, to be honest, he didn't want to expand the military strength of the troops, that's a lie.

As Sun Tzu said in The Art of War, soldiers, the great affairs of the country, the place of life and death, and the way of survival must be observed.

Zhang Tianhai wanted to increase the strength of the Ninth War Zone's security force, not for promotion or to get rich, but just for the possibility of surviving the Japanese army in the future and defeating the enemy.

As an officer who presides over the overall work of the entire army, using weapons and ordnance to make money is not to enrich his own pockets. He must have the next step.

"The ordnance of the 74th Army..." Zhang Tianhai finally muttered softly, as if in a daze...

……

It was a day, with green mountains and green waters, and drops of clear water dripping from the ancient tile eaves.

This is the outskirts of Changsha after a heavy rain. The weather in June and July is like a child's face. It changes at any time. Zhang Tianhai and all the officers and soldiers who were going to the countryside for inspection were soaked by a sudden rainstorm. .

After seeing that the rain had slowly stopped, Zhang Tianhai took the start to a small mountain village about fifteen kilometers away from Changsha City.

Fifteen kilometers away, whether it is far or near, in order to hurry, Zhang Tianhai chose to go to the countryside with the officers and soldiers of the first company of the cavalry battalion.

Since what happened last time, not only Zhang Tianhai dared not go out without guards, but his wife Zheng Man and adjutant Xu Xun also expressed strong opposition. After all, if something happened to Zhang Tianhai, the next Day, that was definitely fun.

After all, life is precious, so Zhang Tianhai accepted this suggestion very happily.

Ever since, Zhang Tianhai took his own cavalry company, almost "showing off" all the way to the countryside.

It is summer at this time, and the straw in the paddy field is green. Because it is not close to autumn and the rice grains on the top of the rice leaves have not yet grown, naturally people will not feel that the ripe straw is pressing on the top.

In this regard, Zhang Tianhai just smiled, watching the scenes of the long-lost reunion around him, and he had the wonderful illusion of "the spring breeze is proud of the horseshoe disease, and I can see all the flowers in Chang'an in one day".

"Xiao Xu, tell me how long it will take before we can fully enjoy this beautiful harvest season." Zhang Tianhai asked a question that was almost useless with a smile on his face.

Yes, it just doesn't work.

As a time traveler, how could Zhang Tianhai not know the course of history?

"Probably... we can only wait until the end of the Anti-Japanese War." Xu Xun replied after a moment of hesitation.

"Then how long do you think it will take for us to win this war of resistance?" Zhang Tianhai asked with a smile. He wanted to hear Xu Xun's opinion. He was afraid that his identity as a time traveler and the height of his thinking would affect his thoughts. Standing, and then lost oneself in the sound of "God of War".

As the ancient poem says, beauty is like a famous general since ancient times, and the world is not allowed to see gray hair.

Zhang Tianhai never regarded himself as a "famous player", but he also knew that he couldn't afford to lose.As long as he loses once, all his efforts will be wiped out in an instant-whether it is his home, or his brother Pao Ze, or his current position as the former enemy commander-in-chief of the Ninth War Zone Security Force, as long as he loses Once, that's enough.

"Commander, as far as I am concerned, if we can win a few more victories like the Battle of Xuzhou, or if there are more excellent generals like you in our national army, I believe that, at most five In this year, we will be able to win." Xu Xun grinned.

"Remove the words "to flatter me, to be honest, according to your estimation." Zhang Tianhai deliberately put on a hard face, but there was not much anger in it.

I saw Xu Xun's face straightened, and said: "Actually, according to my humble opinion, if we continue to fight at the current pace, we estimate that we will fight for 15 or 20 years. The momentum has slowed down a lot, but it is undeniable that the little devil's combat effectiveness is quite strong. Especially in the north, it is a large plain, and the advantages of the Japanese mechanized troops can be said to be obvious, if not for the mountains and rivers as barriers , the Japanese army may have already driven straight in."

When Zhang Tianhai heard it, he also knew that what Xu Xun said was not false, but from the heart, so he nodded and said, "Then let's work hard for this day to come as soon as possible!"

"I believe it will, Commander-in-Chief, I want to follow behind you to see how we can win this war." Xu Xun said confidently.

As Zhang Tianhai's adjutant, Xu Xun has undoubtedly grown rapidly under Zhang Tianhai's precepts and deeds. He is no longer a small staff officer who only knew how to draw pictures on the Xuzhou battlefield. The commander-in-chief looked down at the progress of the battle.

"Xiao Xu, you've grown up very fast." Zhang Tianhai praised Xu Xun in a rare way. You know, he didn't say this lightly.

"It's all taught well by the chief. Without you, I would still be an ordinary staff officer." Xu Xun was neither proud nor complacent, nor underestimated himself, but just responded lightly.

"Very good." Zhang Tianhai nodded.

……

As Zhang Tianhai's adjutant, Xu Xun naturally arranged the specific matters in advance before Zhang Tianhai set off from Changsha.

No, as soon as he arrived at the entrance of the village, Zhang Tianhai saw the villagers and elders who came to greet him.

That's right, it is indeed the folks and elders. They are about 60 to [-] people, including farmers, gentry, and young people who look like scholars.

As soon as the folks and elders saw Zhang Tianhai's team coming, they immediately cheered. Some were called "Anti-Japanese Heroes", some were called "General Zhang", and some were called "Wan Shengjun". One obvious feature is that they are all very enthusiastic.

Obviously, Xu Xun has done a good job in publicity work, at least when he sent people here, he had already done a good job in publicity work and communication work.

"If this kid follows me in later generations, I have to let him work as an officer in the propaganda department. Isn't this talent?" Zhang Tianhai muttered to himself, and when he looked at Xu Xun, his eyes were full of admiration .

Not bad, just full of appreciation.
