Sword life

Chapter 45 Empty Gloves White Wolf

Zhao Gang hurriedly called the second battalion commander and the third battalion commander over: "Be honest, where did the brigade commander go?"

"Political Commissar Zhao, the brigade commander said that there is no oil or water here in Yangquan, so he wants to go farther, walk a few more miles, and get more oil and water!"

Zhang Gang looked at Xu Changsheng with a serious expression: "Comrade Xu Changsheng, you have to tell the truth, where did the brigade commander go?"

Xu Changsheng was taken aback: "The political commissar, the brigade commander said, go to Nanjing and see if there is a chance to make some extra money!"

What, Nanjing!Zhao Gang's mind buzzed for a moment. He thought he had escaped from Yangquan, but he didn't expect that this guy was so courageous that he crossed half of North China and rushed to Nanjing.

"Nonsense, how many people did he bring? The little devil has 10,000+ people rushing to Nanjing. His small number of troops is not even enough to serve as snacks for the little devil. This is killing his life!" Zhao Gang was extremely angry.

Not long after, a telegram from Zhao Gang reached the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army.

"He dared to go to Nanjing with more than 100 people. This Zhang Gang is really daring."

"Not to mention anything else, the little devil has four blockades in Shanxi, and he was able to break through silently without even our comrades noticing. This lurking ability is really remarkable."

"That can't be used to it. He is the brigade commander now. It's not what he should do if he is alone in danger."

At this time, Zhang Gang had arrived in Jinan with the commando.

After marching six hundred miles in five days, although Wei Dayong and others were physically strong, they were also showing signs of fatigue.

"Brigade Commander, if we go out like this, the political commissar won't be angry."

"If you are angry, you must be angry, so this time we have to make a lot of money, and the guarantee is also a group, otherwise, the political commissar will not be able to get rid of this anger." Zhang Gang didn't care.

Zhao Gang is a principled person who puts the overall situation first. If he manages the overall situation, he will not be angry.

"When we arrive in Jinan, let's take the train to Nanjing directly, and we can arrive a week in advance, so let's wait for a big piece of meat."

Everyone laughed, and the laughter attracted the attention of the city gate defenders. The battle of Dezhou had just ended, and the little devils might attack Jinan at any time, so the defenders naturally raised their vigilance.

These people have strong bodies and thick joints in their hands and feet. They are not good at first glance.

"What are you doing?" A group of soldiers aimed their guns at Zhang Gang and the others.

"What are you doing, you beat devils!" Wei Dayong squinted at these soldiers with guns, his face full of arrogance.

"Hehe, the tone is quite loud, from that unit? How many devils have been killed!"

"The members of the Ninth Independent Brigade killed more than 4000 devils. How about it? Is there enough?" After Wei Dayong finished speaking, he took out a Zuoguan knife and showed it off in front of the city guards.

"Really or not?" The guards put down their guns. After checking for a while, they didn't see what was going on, so they sent them to the top for testing.

Not long after, a jeep drove over from the city, and a colonel jumped out of the car, walked up to Zhang Gang in a few steps, and saluted: "Hello, General Zhang! My name is Liu Fang, the staff officer of the Third Army Command. "

Zhang Gang replied: "I'm Zhang Gang, the acting brigade commander of the Ninth Independent Brigade, and I'm just a major. Are you mistaken?"

"I'm not mistaken, the telegram sent by the government a few days ago promoted you to major general. General Zhang, you are really admirable for attacking the little devil's headquarters at night and killing the enemy chief." Liu Fang said enthusiastically.

"It's all about the soldiers working hard, the right time, the right place, and the right people, so they are lucky enough to succeed." Zhang Gang said politely.

"General Zhang, the Japanese invaders captured Dezhou the day before yesterday, Bingfeng was only a hundred miles away from Jinan, and you came to Jinan by such a coincidence, didn't you?" Liu Fang said here, his eyes burning.

If the well-known national hero can fight against the Japanese invaders here, the possibility of defending the Jinan-Taishan line of defense will be a little higher.

"The little devil hoarded a lot of troops in the north and south, and there was not enough troops to launch a campaign against Jinan in the short term. Chairman Han went south to fight in the north. It is not a big problem to resist the little devil's attack in the past few weeks."

Liu Fang was a little disappointed. If Zhang Gang was willing to stay, with Chairman Han's character, a brigade commander wouldn't be able to escape, and there might be a division commander.

But now that Nanjing has sent a telegram to reward promotion, General Zhang probably has a better choice, so he rejected Chairman Han's solicitation.

When we arrive in Nanjing, maybe this one can soar into the sky.
Many thoughts turned in Liu Fang's mind. He looked at the more than 100 people around Zhang Gang, and suddenly smiled and said, "General Zhang, I think you only have this manpower around you. I'm afraid it won't be of much use if you go to Nanjing. I'll see you off." A company of soldiers, when they arrive in Nanjing like this, they should speak more rigidly."

Zhang Gang was stunned: "Colonel Liu, this gift is too heavy, I cannot accept it."

Han Fuqu was much more generous than Yan Xishan. The Ninth Brigade had fought so many battles in Shanxi, but Yan Laoxi hadn't seen any benefits from Yan Laoxi. Han Fuqu came up as a company. The gap between people is so big!

Seeing that Zhang Gang refused to accept him, Liu Fang was unhappy: "General Zhang, everyone is a good guy who fights devils, so it's wrong to prevaricate like this."

Zhang Gang thought about it for a while, and accepted it. Immediately, a bold idea popped up uncontrollably.

"Does Chairman Han need heavy artillery?"

"Ah! Heavy artillery, who doesn't need it!"

Zhang Gang smiled slightly: "I know an American who has some 105mm heavy guns, but the price is very expensive. One needs [-] US dollars."

A normal M2A1105 howitzer only costs [-] US dollars, but most of China's ports are occupied by Japanese invaders, and the road for weapons transportation is broken. Tripling the price is already a conscience price.

"The price is really not expensive, so I'll book six doors first. How much is the deposit?"

"You don't need to pay a deposit, or rather, you don't need to pay money. I'm going to Nanjing this time, and the manpower is still a little short. You know what I mean."
