Shisanlipu is a very small town with an area of ​​only one-tenth of that of Changshu.

There are less than a thousand permanent residents in the town.

But when he heard that the Japanese were about to call, almost all the people in the town ran away. But now, there is only one shelter and several nearby shops.

If the soldiers don’t run away, the owners of these shops won’t run away either. They are still waiting to earn the last pot of gold.

Shelter all the defenders and a company of nearly a thousand defeated soldiers.

The elements of the defeated soldiers were very mixed, most of them were broken up by the Sichuan Army. Another part was the veterans and deserters.

If you catch them, you will be defeated. If you can't catch them, you will run away. That's all.

Corps Wang of the shelter had no choice, and he was too lazy to interrogate them. Before, they all came to the shelter to pick people. After picking them up, they sent them to the front to continue fighting.

But some people are unwilling to leave at all. They make various requests, otherwise they would rather die in a shelter.

Faced with these soldiers, many commanders had no choice. Even if they were forcibly entrusted to the battlefield ahead, they could not fight the war. They had to beware of their escape at any time. So it would be better not to do so.

However, due to the tight war ahead, even if there were a group of soldiers and deserters, they could only invite these old men to the battlefield.

Because each corps suffered huge losses, lacked people, and very short of people.

So it is precisely because of this that from 4 pm to now, two brigade commanders, three regiment commanders and eight battalion commanders all came, all of whom planned to ask for people from the shelter.

It’s just a pity that no one of them would leave today. Because Company Commander Wang had just received an order that no one soldier could be leaked from the shelter, and everyone was requisitioned.

"Damn, who is so capable? All of them have been requisitioned?"

"Yes, this shouldn't be a relative of the committee? The phone number from the chairman's office?"

"I want to see who is so capable."

"Grandma, my troops are about to be exhausted. I just heard that there are soldiers here, but I won't give them to you."

"That's right, my 31st Brigade has less than half of its troops. I have asked to replenish the troops several times, but I just don't."

"Didn't you say it? The same is true for my 162nd Brigade,..."

··················

Because the officers were unable to get soldiers, they complained to each other in the living room.

However, at this moment, a military Dodge Jeep was parked outside the shelter.

This is definitely a new thing for the defenders. Because the other officers came on horseback and asked for people, this one actually drove a car. It is estimated that he was at least a division commander?

Because it was too dark and the guards didn't see it clearly, they went up and stood at attention and said, "Hello, commander."

"good!"

The Dragon Boat Festival did not refute, what do you mean by your name? I dare to agree if you call me the commander.

Dragon Boat Festival said in an orderly tone: "Let your heads come to see me."

"Sir, please ask the living room first. I'll go to our company commander now."

The guards were all commanders of Dragon Boat Festival, so they were so diligent.

The Dragon Boat Festival didn't care about this and walked into the living room. As soon as I entered the room, it was steaming, with at least twenty people inside.

Some of them sat on chairs, some leaned against the wall, and some squatted in the corners of the wall, and those who sat on the windowsill had everything.

But when the Dragon Boat Festival came in, an old team leader who was about fifty years old with a cigarette pipe in his mouth and laughed and said, "Look, another one is here."

The brigade commander of the 162nd Brigade squinted his eyes and smiled, "Little brother, how do you get the clothes? Hahaha, have you gone into the pile of cannon fodder?"

"Hahaha!"

"Hahaha!......"

·············

Everyone laughed together, because the military uniform on Dragon Boat Festival was too dirty, the blood of the Japanese and the black smoke almost made his military uniform unable to see what he originally looked like. Even the collar seal was covered by blood.

The Dragon Boat Festival was so funny. He saw that there was a chair next to the brigade commander of the 162nd Brigade. He walked over and sat down.

The brigade commander of the 162nd Brigade and the brigade commander of the 31st Brigade were a little dissatisfied, and looked at the Dragon Boat Festival with their eyes hanging.

The same is true for the other regiment commanders. Because in their eyes, Dragon Boat Festival is likely to be a big soldier. At most, it would be good to be a small platoon leader.

What's more, the empty chair was not without people sitting. There were people in the room, and there were three commanders. One of them was still standing. The brigade commander of the 162nd Brigade asked him to sit, but he didn't dare. But he didn't expect that the Dragon Boat Festival would come and sat there.

The standing regiment commander sneered and said, "Little brother, are you not polite? What military rank do you have? How dare you sit there?"

The Dragon Boat Festival didn't say anything, just smeared it on his collar seal with his hands.

Two bars and three stars.

“················"

The leader who had just sneered disdainfully felt speechless. He was in his forties this year and had only been able to get the position of deputy leader of the lieutenant colonel. But he was young and had already become three stars.

The brigade commander Zhang from the 162nd Brigade couldn't help but take a look at Dragon Boat Festival more and asked, "Little brother, where did you come from? Look at you who are less than 20 years old? The rank of colonel? Could it be that I picked it up from the battlefield?"

Brigade Commander Zhang was sarcastic because he was only a brigade commander, and he was almost fifty this year. But the young officer in front of him was less than twenty years old. Why is that right?

"The 88th Division, Independent Regiment, Colonel Commander-Dragon Boat Festival, please give me advice."

Dragon Boat Festival deliberately said loudly, but almost made Brigade Commander Zhang’s nose crooked.

Because the 88th Division is a direct line, no one knows. And everyone knows that you have the rank of colonel. Do you still need to be so loud?

However, Brigade Commander Zhang is not a vegetarian. He said in a mocking tone: "What can the Eighty-Eighth Division? It won't be possible for anyone. There is an order from above, but no one will be allowed. We are all waiting to see which bastard is with such a great face. He is about to leave for nearly a thousand people."

Others agreed indignantly, saying that they had to tear him apart if they saw the bastard. Some even gritted their teeth with hatred.

The Dragon Boat Festival expression was very awkward, because the people in this room might be talking about him.

But I didn't expect that at this moment, the Company Commander Wang came and immediately apologized as soon as he entered the door: "I have been waiting for you for a long time, and I have been waiting for you for a long time. The special envoy who came to contact us has not come yet. Sorry, sorry.

By the way, there was a division commander just now, who was it?"

"Teacher? Where is there a teacher?"

Everyone here was surprised because there were no teachers coming in at all. Otherwise, how could they not know?

The company commander Wang frowned and looked at his guards with a cold face. The boy looked around the house and finally saw the Dragon Boat Festival next to Brigade Commander Zhang.

"It's him, it's him!"

The guard pointed at the Dragon Boat Festival, and the Company Commander Wang almost turned around and kicked him. Because of a regiment commander, tell me what the commander was doing when he came? I can't hide at all. I heard that the commander was coming and had to appear here.

And sure enough, when everyone saw Corps Wang coming in, there was only one sentence for everyone, that was to ask for people.

"You boy, do you treat those deserters as treasures?"

"That's right, we're going to be so busy? Are we?"

"I have run twenty miles of mountain road for you, a little soldier."

"You kid, will you give it to someone? Grandma, I see you are so weak!"

"That's, a small shelter, what do you think is crazy about you? Have we officials been waiting for you?"

"I have been waiting for more than six hours. I will take us to pick someone right away!"

"Yes, yes, let's pick someone!"

··············

In an instant, everyone surrounded him. When the Company Commander Wang wanted to leave, he was dreaming in the daytime.

Corps Wang was in a very distressed way and could only explain: "Everyone, you all, it's not that I, Xiao Zhang, don't give you face. It's really this matter, but I passed the commissioner. This is the commissioner's order. Tonight, the special commissioner will come to bring people up."

"Commissioner? Where is there a special commissioner? We waited from four o'clock in the afternoon until it was almost ten o'clock in the middle of the night. Where is the person? Call the special commissioner out and let me see?"

"Yes, yes, call the special envoy out and let's see! Grandma, the commission office calls you? Why don't I believe it?"

"Damn it, if you don't give him a shot, you'll beat him up!"

·············

"What are you doing? Do you still look like a soldier?"

Just when everyone surrounded Company Commander Wang, as if he was about to swallow him alive, a voice suddenly came from behind them.

Everyone looked back and saw that it was the young colonel officer who had just come in.

Brigade Commander Zhang said disdainfully: "From the 88th Division? I'm afraid you don't have enough time to speak here, right?"

"I'm the special commissioner, why? Do you want to rebel? You don't know how to salute me when you see the superior?"

Dragon Boat Festival directly scolded him with a stern face, which was completely different from when he came in. Some people even think that this kid is a dog, and he will turn against him if he says he is a dog?

However, they all heard the word "special commissioner". Even Brigade Commander Zhang was speechless at this time.

The special commissioner represents the chairman and is a senior official. Even if his military rank is the brigade commander and the Dragon Boat Festival is the regiment commander, he will salute him when he sees the Dragon Boat Festival.

"Soldiers must always maintain their military qualities. This is not a vegetable market? Are you picking cabbage? What are you yelling about?"

Dragon Boat Festival scolded loudly again, and the audience was silent and didn't even dare to let go of a fart.

But at this time, the elder Sun of the 31st Brigade was still cunning and hurried forward and said, "Telecomman, what you taught me is that we have lost our composure!"

"Yes, yes, yes, we have lost our compulsory duties, we have lost our compulsory duties!"

Brigade Commander Zhang also laughed tightly, and the 40s Commander Sun even brought a chair for Dragon Boat Festival to invite Dragon Boat Festival to take his seat.

But just now, he was dissatisfied with the Dragon Boat Festival sitting next to Commander Zhang. But at this moment, it seemed like he had completely changed someone else.

Brigade Commander Sun from the 31st Brigade quickly handed over a cigarette.

Brigade Commander Zhang from the 162nd Brigade, hurry up to go to Dragon Boat Festival.
