Chapter 1622 Answers about Luokang(1/2)
On the way back, Ma Jintao, who was promoted to acting commander, directly promoted Zhao Jinyu to acting company commander of the special agent company, and also promoted Wei Ran to acting deputy company commander.
Wei Ran knew clearly, and Zhao Jinyu also knew that Ma Jintao was trying to persuade them to stay, hoping that they would stay.
Looking at Adjutant Yu's body lying on his horse, Wei Ran sighed and did not agree or refuse - just like Zhao Jinyu's attitude.
Ma Jintao seemed to have also seen his brother-in-law Zhao Jinyu's entanglement, so he did not continue the topic. He just commanded the few remaining cavalry and regiment infantry in the trenches, carrying the bodies of injured and killed comrades, as well as trophies and
The horse corpse began to retreat.
But unknowingly, Zhao Jinyu and Wei Ran each pulled the reins in tacit understanding and guided the horses to the edge of the team.
"Have you thought about it?" Wei Ran asked confusedly before Zhao Jinyu could speak.
"Think about it, where can I fight the Japanese without attacking the Japanese?"
Zhao Jinyu breathed a sigh of relief, "Besides, if you look at it now, let alone the special agent company, this cavalry regiment can still ride on a horse and lift a saber. It would be good to have two hundred and fifty in total. At this time, I
If he leaves, my brother-in-law will become the polished commander."
"In this case, I won't leave either." Wei Ran said happily.
Hearing this, Zhao Jinyu breathed a sigh of relief. Obviously, he was still wavering. If Wei Ran had just said that he was leaving, he might have wavered in his intention to stay.
Before Wei Ran could say anything, Zhao Jinyu reached out with great interest and pulled out a familiar object from his horse bag and handed it to Wei Ran - a Japanese grenade.
"Captured?" Wei Ran asked as he took the grenade.
"A lot of Japanese artillery shells were also seized."
Zhao Jinyu patted his horse bag and said, "We used this thing in the woods near Langcaozigou back then. When we were just packing up the trophies, we remembered it and simply picked up two cannon barrels and put all the cannon barrels back.
I brought back all the small cannonballs, there were about seventy or eighty of them.
I'm thinking about giving this thing to the pistol team later to see if it can be used in the future."
"This thing can't be used on horseback."
Wei Ran smiled and shook his head, returning the bloody grenade in his hand to the other party.
Zhao Jinyu didn't take it seriously at all. He took the grenade and stuffed it into his horse sack again, then asked casually, "Tell me, since we wiped out all their cavalry this time, will the Japs take revenge next?"
"
"There will definitely be revenge."
Wei Ran replied firmly, even if he didn't know the subsequent historical process, he could guess it just by guessing. A total of five or six hundred cavalry were wiped out. Not only were the corpses stripped clean, but even the corpses of the war horses were probably wiped out.
It would be really strange if this little devil could bear the sight of being taken away as a side dish of meat and vegetables!
"We have to entertain them well when the time comes."
Zhao Jinyu murmured to himself, and one of his hands subconsciously rested on the wooden gun box at his waist.
"What are you going to do with the flag?" Wei Ran asked, changing the subject.
Hearing this, Zhao Jinyu fell into silence. After a moment, he answered, "I have written a letter in Mongolian to my eldest and second brothers. As long as the letter is there, they will definitely believe Sister Shiyi.
That flag... Since they are all still alive, I guess it doesn't matter whether the flag is there or not."
"Then just stay and concentrate on fighting the Japanese."
Wei Ran said no more, urged his horse to chase forward a few steps, then turned towards the surviving cavalry and pressed the shutter again and again.
Compared with the eagerness when they came, the return journey was much slower. Even so, they returned to their base faster than the auxiliary troops of the cavalry regiment.
This time, Wei Ran did not attend the burial ceremony of the fallen soldiers. Not only was the horse regiment commander seriously injured this time, he also had a lot of wounds on his body, so as soon as he came back, he was sent to the medical room for bandaging.
This so-called medical room is just a relatively clean main room in a side hospital.
Compared to Captain Ma, who was receiving emergency treatment in the operating room inside, acting company commander Zhao Jinyu, who was being bandaged outside, called Han Nursing Home who came to deliver the letter.
"Master Han, I've thought about it."
Zhao Jinyu endured the pain of debridement, pointed at Wei Ran next to him, and said with a grin, "We brothers don't plan to go back for the time being. It's time to hire people here. I can't leave my brother-in-law and run away.
"
"this..."
Han Huyuan looked at Wei Ran with pleading eyes. Seeing that the latter shook his head helplessly, he gritted his teeth and said, "Master uncle, actually I hope that you and Master Wei can follow me back. She hopes that you two brothers can...
"
"go back?"
Zhao Jinyu smiled and said, "I finally decided to stay, but I have no intention of going back, and there aren't that many young masters here.
Master Han, if the two of us leave, my brother-in-law will be the commander-in-chief, and there is nothing we can do to leave him and run away at this time."
"This...this...oh!"
Han Huyuan finally slapped his thigh, bowed and clasped his fists in gratitude and said, "Then I would like to thank my uncle and uncle for the young master and the old lady first!"
"Master Han, don't be polite."
Zhao Jinyu quickly lifted Han Huyuan's arm and said, "Please take those letters and other things back with you. Also, take Master Bai with you and take him back with you."
"Take him with you? This..."
Master Han was hesitant for a moment. He couldn't decide this matter. Subconsciously, he didn't think Zhao Jinyu could make the decision.
"Didn't you say before that my sister wanted to find a wife for Xiaobai?"
Zhao Jinyu sighed, "Xiao Bai's happy event, it really can't be justified if Lao Bai is not here. With the war in chaos, let him go back to see you while you have the opportunity, even if he comes back with you next month.
Master Han, you should ask my brother-in-law right now. If he agrees, you can take Master Bai and set off immediately. The Japanese might have to fight back some time."

"Master Han, please leave as soon as possible." Wei Ran, who was also being bandaged, reminded, "Leave early and go back early."
"Oh! That's fine, you two take care."
Master Han clasped his fists at Wei Ran and Zhao Jinyu, turned around and left the medical room, which could only be regarded as rudimentary.
"My sister asked Master Han to bring some things for life," Zhao Jinyu didn't say until Han Huyuan left.
"I know, and you gave me a share." Wei Ran agreed.
"If my sister knew that our place was so dangerous, she would probably cry." Zhao Jinyu said with some joy.
"Your sister asked Master Han, and Master Han asked me to take the lead. The Zhao family has sent two men to fight..."
"So I have to go to the battlefield to fight the Japanese."
Zhao Jinyu didn't wait for Wei Ran to finish, then he said to himself, "My eldest brother and second brother can go fight the Japanese, why can't I go?"
"Okay, pretend I didn't say that."
Wei Ran waved his hand and stopped persuading. At this time, persuading the other party actually didn't make much sense anymore.
Just at this moment, Ma Jintao also walked in quickly. He was also very decorated, but as soon as he came back, he was busy arranging the wounded and burying the fallen soldiers. This was better than Wei Ran and Zhao Jinyu.
A little late.
"How is the situation of the regiment leader?" Ma Jintao asked before sitting down.
"Still inside"
Zhao Jinyu replied, "I asked Han just now..."
"I know"
Ma Jintao nodded, "I have asked Lao Bai to prepare, and they will set off later. Jin Yu, Wei Ran, do you two really plan to stay?"
Wei Ran smiled and joked, "If we leave, you will really become the polished commander."
"Let's kill the Japanese together from now on!" Ma Jintao said with high spirits.
As soon as he finished speaking, the white curtain in the inner room was opened by a doctor in a white coat, and the three people outside also looked over.
"Captain Ma, the regimental commander calls you in." The doctor said, holding up his hands covered with blood.
"How is the situation of the regiment leader?" Ma Jintao, who was about to be bandaged, immediately stood up and asked while walking quickly inside.
"The bleeding has stopped," the doctor said, having already let Ma Jintao into the operating room.
What the old and new team leaders talked about next in the operating room was unknown to Wei Ran and Zhao Jinyu outside, but after Ma Jintao came out, he immediately greeted Zhao Jinyu and left the station.
Not only that, the acting regiment commander Ma Jintao also gave Wei Ran a task, commanding the uninjured cavalry to patrol the river embankment and be alert at all times to the Japanese who were attacking on the other side.
After receiving the order, Wei Ran did not dare to delay. He immediately blew the assembly whistle and led the more than 200 cavalrymen who had just relaxed to the river embankment to start setting up defenses.
It was the first time to command so many people. Wei Ran was inevitably a little nervous. To be on the safe side, he carefully selected 20 cavalrymen to patrol back and forth on horseback. The remaining ones used reeds as cover to cooperate with the garrison troops stationed here.
Groups of 10 men began digging trenches - trenches large enough to mount machine guns.
Under his command and the busyness of many cavalry around him, the trenches that had been dug earlier for defense were further deepened and strengthened beside the reeds on the river bank.
Soon, with them on high alert, the auxiliary units who were just a step behind also started to cross the river dragging the loot.
Under their watch, the infantry units, with the help of sheepskin rafts, small wooden boats and other river-crossing tools, moved like ants, bit by bit, the corpses of the war horses that could feed themselves, as well as the various trophies taken from the Japanese soldiers.
Shipped back.
