War of Resistance

Chapter 744
This monstrous flood was naturally the surging water of the Yellow River.

There are flowing floods everywhere, and the flood is dark yellow. You don't need to look to know that it is the water of the Yellow River.

The water of the Yellow River is flowing, flooding the farmland and crops all over the place, and countless people soaked in the water are following the flow of the water.

They were crying helplessly, but this cry could not bring them the slightest help, only screaming at the top of their lungs.

From Zhang Tianhai's visual point of view, he seems to be like a moving drone, overlooking this vast and desolate land.

However, it was discovered that the entire land was as terrifying as purgatory, and the screams and cries were one after another.

Suddenly, Zhang Tianhai woke up from the dream. He wanted to continue sleeping, but found that he no longer felt sleepy.

Thinking that he was in this state, Zhang Tianhai couldn't help laughing bitterly: Is he in a daze?How could this be so?
After getting up and washing his face, Zhang Tianhai looked at the dark circles on his face, thought about it, and went back to sleep.

After a while, Zhang Tianhai fell into a deep sleep.

But not long after Zhang Tianhai fell asleep, a sudden knock on the door woke him up.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk..."

To be honest, Zhang Tianhai was obviously in a bad mood when he was woken up by such a sudden knock on the door. After all, he had just fallen asleep.

"What's the matter?" Zhang Tianhai's tone was inevitably irritated.

"Report to the regiment, the military department will transfer the urgent call to the command headquarters!" The voice outside the door did not hesitate, and directly explained the reason.

"Okay! Wait a minute!" After hearing the call from the command headquarters, Zhang Tianhai woke up suddenly—an urgent call from the command headquarters?Isn't that Chiang Kai-shek? !
Thinking of this, Zhang Tianhai hurriedly got out of bed without the slightest hesitation.

"Acridine~"

The door opened all of a sudden, and Zhang Tianhai came out from inside, looking disheveled, and his jacket was put on temporarily.

"Team, telegram!" Xu Xun, the combat staff officer, handed the telegram directly to Zhang Tianhai.

Zhang Tianhai rubbed his eyes, then took the telegram.

I see it says-

"The third war zone is directly under Zhang Tianhai, the head of the first regiment. After seeing this order, you will immediately lead the No. 70 First Army to temporarily advance to Qi County. The first regiment directly under the theater went to Zhengzhou, and the commander took the train to Wuhan. The command of the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government sent an urgent telegram on the morning of May 27th, 29th year of the Republic of China!"

After seeing this telegram, Zhang Tianhai couldn't help but a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, and he kept muttering: "Go to Wuhan, go to Wuhan. What will happen next?"

Until this moment, Zhang Tianhai once again felt very deeply what it means to be "a person who is in the rivers and lakes and cannot help himself".

Now that he has come to this era and has integrated into this era, his own destiny is no longer in the hands of individuals—it is decided by the officials at the top of the pyramid.

"Let's pass on the order! Let everyone assemble." Zhang Tianhai said softly, this was an order to Xu Xun.

"Yes! Group seat!" Xu Xun stood at attention and saluted.

"Da da da~ da da da~"

The melodious assembly call began to sound, and all the officers and soldiers of No. 70 First Army's temporary advancing troops immediately gathered in the open area.

This was carried out in accordance with a predetermined program of military operations.

That's right, it's the No. [-] action plan.

According to the No. [-] action plan, these troops were to withdraw from Lanfeng as quickly as possible.

When they heard the rallying numbers, the officers of the No.70 First Army Regiment were almost a little dazed—especially Zhou Fangjie, the head of the No.70 First Army Regiment, who obviously had a relationship with Zhang Tianhai was in the same state and was woken up.

It's just that Zhang Tianhai was woken up by the knock on the door, and Zhou Fangjie was woken up by the sound of the rallying horn. The process is different, and the tension is naturally different.

"Zhang Yulin, what's going on? Is there another emergency order?" Zhou Fangjie walked up to Zhang Tianhai wearing only a shirt and asked.

Zhang Tianhai nodded noncommittally, and said seriously: "Yes, there is an emergency order, and it is an emergency order from the command headquarters. In view of the current emergency situation on the frontline battlefield, we must hurry up and retreat."

"Then where are we going to retreat?" Zhou Fangjie asked anxiously.

"You evacuated to Qi County, and I will evacuate to Wuhan." After speaking, Zhang Tianhai directly handed the original text of the telegram to Zhou Fangjie for reading.

"Huh?" After hearing the news, Zhou Fangjie couldn't help but frowned slightly, then he took the telegram and read it carefully.

Not long after, Zhou Fangjie put down the telegram and said with a long sigh: "Old Zhang, going to Wuhan this time will be a good opportunity for you, you have to seize it."

"If there is no chance, it would probably be good to go back to Wuhan to have a look." Zhang Tianhai sighed. After all, for Wuhan, this is his home in this life.

Not only the small family composed of him and Zheng Man, but also the big family composed of his father Zhang Fuhan and mother Yu Zhiyun in this life.

No matter what it looked like, Zhang Tianhai always wanted to meet, take a look, and see what his life's home was like, and then see what his father-in-law and mother-in-law were like.

Regarding the family, Zheng Man hardly mentioned anything to Zhang Tianhai, as if he was afraid that he would feel unconfident about himself.

No matter what, Zhang Yulin had to face these things himself, and no one could help him.

You know, some things must be endured by one person, and the word empathy has never existed, just like Zhang Tianhai, he will never tell the secret that he comes from a later life.

"Then I wish you good luck! Zheng Man's parents, have you thought about what to prepare?" Zhou Fangjie poked Zhang Tianhai with a smirk and asked.

I saw that Zhang Tianhai was full of frowns, and said: "You also know that I don't understand anything, and I only understand a little bit in terms of worldly sophistication. At that time... I will catch a bastard if I am the best!"

This is really Zhang Tianhai's weakness. As for his home, he no longer remembers where it is. He only remembers that it was a cozy courtyard and what his parents looked like in this life.

"Okay, then let's not gossip. Regarding Zhiyituan, how do you plan to develop in the future?" Zhou Fangjie asked directly to the topic.

"How can you plan to develop? That is, to replenish the troops, that is a great achievement." Zhang Tianhai said with a frown.

Seeing Zhang Tianhai's frowning face, Zhou Fangjie couldn't help but get angry: "Ahem, you boy, don't say it so seriously. It seems that you are hurting you. Replenish the troops. Finished, then you have a full five battalions of infantry main combat troops. Add an artillery battalion, a cavalry battalion, the regiment directly under the headquarters, etc., and you have eight battalions in total. These eight battalions, sealed It is not an exaggeration for you to be a brigade commander, so you should give Lao Tzu a cheap and good manner."

"But, that's Wuhan... Even if we want to hold eight battalions, can the headmaster agree? Our Central Army's troops are not too small. Out of consideration for other people's feelings, the headmaster probably won't agree. right?" Zhang Tianhai said.

"Don't talk about it. What time is it now, but when the Anti-Japanese War was at its worst, how many people were killed and injured, and what was the situation on the front line? You don't want to look at it? I, Zhou Fangjie, don't dare Said, but as long as you can fight, the principal will dare to give soldiers to the army, I am convinced of this." Zhou Fangjie said, patting his chest, as if he was full of confidence.

"Old Zhou, stop praising me. If you praise me again, I'm afraid I'm going to heaven." Zhang Tianhai said with a wry smile.

"I'm serious with you." Zhou Fangjie said very seriously, "I dare not tell others. Look at you, how many victories have you won? Even if you get into trouble in Lanfeng, you will definitely not be stuck in army building, and even It is possible to add troops to you, believe it or not."

"What do you think?" Zhang Tianhai asked carefully, after all, this question is of personal interest to him.

"Look, we have so many troops on the front line, and so many officers, how many Huangpu students may win the battle if they are caught by a handful? It's not that I look down on them, they really can't do it." Zhou Fangjie said bluntly.

Before Zhang Tianhai could speak, Zhou Fangjie continued: "People who can fight are not promoted, but those who can't fight are promoted all the way. What kind of reasoning is this? It doesn't make sense, so just don't worry! You People from our Whampoa are much better than those from other military academies. You won't be promoted this time, but you must be subsidized in other respects."

"Oh? Subsidy?" Zhang Tianhai's ears started talking.

"Yes. Apart from subsidizing the troops, I really didn't think of any other better subsidy method. Your regiment is now close to a brigade. If you expand it, it will already be a brigade in essence. As for the title, it's a hammer." Zhou Fangjie said disdainfully, in his opinion, that's it.

In this era when someone with a gun is the grass head king, it is the most affordable to have someone with a gun. For example, if you only have twenty people, if you don’t give people or guns, even if you are given a division number, that is also a scumbag no?

"It makes sense." Zhang Tianhai nodded, his thoughts suddenly cleared up, "By the way, what about your regiment? How do you plan to develop?"

"Our regiment? Is it my turn to talk about the development of our regiment? Don't think about it, that's what the military seat should think about, my regiment. Don't look at it, there are already two thousand people, but, in terms of combat power... hey , Don't talk about it, I don't have a solid mentality myself." Zhou Fangjie sighed, his face full of sadness.

"Then train, how can there be a good unit that cannot be trained? All that is needed is some time." Zhang Tianhai said bluntly.

"Indeed, what we lack is time. Besides, our regiment's equipment is not as good as yours. Your regiment is a serious German army, a reinforced regiment, and a lean camel is bigger than a horse. When you recover your combat effectiveness, you can I know that you are strong. We have limited development prospects. And the number of the war zone has always been linked to the regiment, and there are priority replenishment conditions in various aspects such as supplies. But we are different, our direct regiment is linked to the The designation of the military department is naturally different." Zhou Fangjie gritted his teeth and said.

Sometimes, we have to admit the strength of others.

"Give more confidence in yourself. You were born in the teaching corps and served as the deputy head of the strengthening group. Now I let you be the head of the group directly under it. It's just to hone you. With your skills, old Zhou Isn't it a matter of minutes to be promoted to brigade commander or division commander?" Zhang Tianhai said with a chuckle, he was not joking, but speaking from his heart.

Zhou Fangjie is a very capable person, and this cannot be faked. It is only because Zhang Yulin's existence is too dazzling that he blocks Zhou's light.

On a stage, the brightest spotlight can only be on the lead actor, nothing more.

"Look! When my old Zhou can be as decisive as your old Zhang, it may be the time when I will be promoted to brigade commander." Zhou Fangjie smiled and said with a lot of helplessness in his smile.

If there is a choice between the deputy commander of the first regiment directly under the third theater and the commander of the No.70 first army regiment, Zhou Fangjie must choose the former.

It doesn't mean that he must be the head of the chicken rather than the tail of the phoenix. Zhou Fangjie always thinks that no matter what position he is in, as long as he can win the battle, it will be fine.

Winning the battle is naturally very enjoyable, and, with the strength of the regiment directly under the [-]st regiment in the [-]rd war zone—if you let go of the fight, it can be said that it is one-on-one, and it is impossible to wipe out a single regiment of the Japanese army. questionable.

Moreover, in Zhou Fangjie's view, the Zhiyi Regiment is not just an ordinary regiment, it can even be called a brigade with a changed organization.

The de facto deputy brigade commander with real power is naturally different from the head of an ordinary combat regiment.

"Look at you, now it's your turn to flatter me. It's not easy for us two brothers to meet each other, and it's even more difficult to become confidantes. No matter what, our brotherhood remains the same, even if you and I are promoted No matter how high an official is, he can't forget this brotherhood." Zhang Tianhai said in a deep voice.

"I understand what you mean. You and I, just be honest with each other." Zhou Fangjie patted Zhang Tianhai on the shoulder and said.

"Then let's evacuate first! Everything will be discussed in Qi County!" Zhang Tianhai said.

"Okay, no problem." Zhou Fangjie nodded.

It didn't take long for the No. 70 First Army's temporary advance force, which was a temporary force, to begin to retreat. The speed of the retreat was almost dizzying.

Less than an hour after receiving the order to retreat, the troops were completely withdrawn.Rang Youshi was a little caught off guard.
