The sky was hazy and there was a slight breeze, so although the snow in the mountains was almost gone, it still gave people a cold feeling.
Mountains have existed since ancient times, but after all, the long dragon winding between the mountains makes people feel the presence of human beings, and that long dragon is the Great Wall.
At this time, thousands of disheveled officers and soldiers were walking westward at the foot of the Great Wall, and Shang Zhen and the others were among them.
This time they were with a large army, so naturally they couldn't talk like they did when they were alone. What's more, before setting off, Mr. Wang said that he couldn't be good if he got an advantage, and he must not cheat on Ba Sou.
The so-called "don't use it" is a Northeastern dialect. If you change it to Mandarin, you must keep a low profile.
As the leader of this team, Shang Zhen has always been a model in observing discipline, not to mention that he is not a talkative person to begin with.
He looked at the advancing team. This was the first time Shang Zhen had participated in such a big action since he became a soldier.
It stands to reason that so many people should have the momentum to fight for the national crisis together, but unfortunately Shang Zhen, who is in such a team, does not feel it at all.
The clothes worn by all the officers and soldiers cannot be said to be tattered, but they are also dusty.
Most of the weapons in their hands are rifles, but some soldiers don't have guns in their hands, just like Shang Zhen himself.
When he returned to the establishment, in order to prevent others from bullying him, he gave away his flower trap, and then received an order from the troops to go to Gubeikou. At this time, Shang Zhen naturally had no time to get another gun.
Originally, he thought that after he reunited with Mr. Wang and the others, he could take one from his own hands, but his idea was wrong.
Now Mr. Wang and the others don't have all the weapons in their hands. The reason is that after they fought with those in his own company, their firearms were ordered to be given away by the battalion commander.
When Captain Li begged the battalion commander to let them go to the new company, they asked the original company for guns, but they didn't give them good guns at all.
You must know that the guns in their hands are all good, including the Japanese Army's Type 38, the Northeastern Army's Liao 13, and flower machine box guns.
But the day before yesterday, they acted like a monster in the company, and that person offended them all. The good gun was in his hands, how could he take it out again? That situation is like a meat bun hitting a dog. Can you still expect the dog to spit out the bun again?
Under those circumstances, Captain Li begged for mercy, but the battalion commander did not punish them. It would be great if they could be released. They still wanted to get their guns back. How could that be possible?
So they, a group of scattered people, took a few broken guns and set off towards Gubeikou with the large army.
At first, Shang Zhen and the others followed the 29th Army to fight the Japanese army at the front line of Xifeng Wind Gate.
When they thought of a move, they beat up Wang Qingfeng and was taken back to the organization. Their Northeast Army brigade was dozens of miles west of Xifengkou.
Then they followed the large army and walked westward. After four days of rushing, they were finally only a few dozen miles away from Gubeikou.
The journey along the way was naturally miserable, but now Shang Zhen and the others still have not reached the new company they need to reach!
And this was Shang Zhen's idea.
That Captain Li brought Shang Zhen and Wang Laomao together to "rescue" them. He just told them the number of the company they should go to, and then they went back in a hurry, but asked Shang Zhen and the others to report on their own.
Now that his people are safe, Shang Zhen is not in a hurry to take everyone to the new company.
Once bitten, twice shy.
This time, both Shang Zhen and Wang Laomao were bullied. Judging from the bad behavior of the original company, the new company may not be much better.
So Shang Zhen told everyone, let's go with Da Liu'er first, and we'll see what happens later!
Everyone agreed with Shang Zhen’s idea!
Just like they are now, a group of skirmishers have less than ten broken guns and less than one hundred rounds of ammunition. If there is a combat mission after arriving in the new company, they will be directly treated as a squad and thrown into the new company. If we go to the front to fight the Japanese army, if the Japanese army uses a small cannon, they will be completely scattered in this world!
This Northeastern Army lost the battle. When they ran to the front line of the Great Wall, they were defeated. Now, although they are temporarily organized, their mentality is still that of defeated troops.
But these have nothing to do with Shang Zhen, but Shang Zhen doesn't think so.
The most miserable time for them was when they were kicked out from behind by the Japanese army. How much worse could they be?
At least now they are close to the large army. Although there will be raindrops from the sky, they cannot withstand the large number of people in the large army. They may not be the unlucky ones when the time comes.
Don't ask Shang Zhen and the others for any enlightenment. They also want to fight off the Japanese invaders, but they need to survive even more.
Their team marched like this until dusk, when the team stopped.
Shang Zhen winked at his people, and the dozen or so of them went to a nearby forest.
Not to mention that this temporarily formed team still has a mentality of defeat.
Shang Zhen and the others didn't go to their own company at all, but just slipped away. No one asked about them along the way.
Think about it, there are thousands of people, and these ten or so people are inconspicuous, who will pay attention to them?
Company A would think they were from Company B, and Company B would think they were from Company C.
The reason why this situation occurs is because some company commanders do not fully recognize their own soldiers!
How could a team like this win the battle with low morale? Even if Wang Qingfeng's brother-in-law, the brigade commander, was determined to fight the Japanese army, he would not be able to assemble his team in a day or two.
"Come on, it's time to eat and drink!" After arriving in the woods, Mr. Wang sat down on a stone and said.
It was indeed hard to march all the way, so everyone took out their dry food and started eating it.
It is now the end of March, and the temperature here has risen. The dry food is carried close to them, and it is not completely frozen after all.
Shang Zhen and the others are pitiful.
Since they didn't want to return to Jian for the time being, it would be difficult for them to eat. After they started marching, Qin Chuan used his remaining cigarettes to exchange a bag of corn noodles with the cooking team of a certain company. The pancakes were shared among everyone, and this was their food ration along the way.
Soldiers who fight naturally eat very quickly, that is, one person gnaws a few large pancakes and drinks a few sips of cold water.
But at this time, Shang Zhen and the others became lively when they saw that the large army wanted to rest here.
"I was so suffocated along the way!" Hou Kanshan, who showed his teeth, was the first to say.
But when Hou Kaishan spoke, everyone looked at him, and for a moment no one answered.
The reason is that now Hou Kanshan's face has become disfigured, and his whole temperament has changed.
Just imagine that he is no longer as talkative as he used to be, he is no longer as indebted as before, he has become taciturn, and his appearance has changed. Isn't this just like a different person?
"Damn monkey, tell me what happened after you separated from us. You made a fool of yourself that night, but we didn't hear you clearly and were too busy fighting." Qian Chuan'er said.
"What's there to say? It's good that I can come back alive now." Hou Kanshan didn't want to talk anymore. This was different from the original Hou Kanshan.
Seeing that Hou Kanshan refused to say anything, no one else forced him to say anything.
In fact, Shang Zhen and others had already discussed Hou Kanshan behind his back, and they guessed that Hou Kanshan must have been stimulated because his wife and children were killed by the Japanese army.
At the same time, they were relieved that Hou Kanshan was finally not as annoying as before.
"You didn't know we were going there?" Qin Chuan muttered at this time.
Others were about to answer, but at this moment Shang Zhen said: "Stop talking nonsense, someone is coming."
Since they had not returned to Jian, they were naturally wary of others. Everyone was staring outside the woods.
At this time they saw an officer coming towards them from the brigade.
The reason why that person is an officer is because he has a box gun hanging on his waist.
