Chapter 56 The main force

"Get up, get up!"

Just as he was sleeping soundly, Zhang Chi was hit on his butt again.

Zhang Chi couldn't help but be furious and cursed him secretly, who dared to kick me in the butt... Before he opened his eyes, he jumped up from the ground and grabbed the gun.

When I looked closely, I found that there were a group of soldiers wearing the same military uniforms as me standing in the warehouse at some point, and the military rank was still a captain.

So Zhang Chi understood that the main force of the Fifth Army arrived. The reason why they could come in without their own notice was that the people who were on duty saw that they were their own people and were also captains, so they did not dare to turn back to warn them.

His eyes glanced at the fellow villager standing at the entrance of the warehouse. His helpless and innocent expression made Zhang Chi know that his guess was right.

"Huh!" At this time, the captain noticed the sniper rifle in Zhang Chi's hand, and his eyes were filled with surprise.

"Which part of you are?" asked the captain.

"Report to the commander!" Zhang Chi stepped forward and replied: "We are from the 200th Division's 1st Engineer Regiment, 1st Battalion, 1st Battalion, 1st Battalion, and I am the platoon leader Zhang Chi!"

"Well! From the Engineer Regiment!" The captain nodded and raised his head outside the warehouse: "There are a few armored vehicles parked at the door, and they are yours?"

"Yes, sir!" Only then did Zhang Chi realize that it was the armored vehicle parked at the door that attracted their attention.

"Huh!" Hearing this, the captain made a strange expression: "Your 200th Division is really generous. The engineer regiment is equipped with armored vehicles and sniper rifles... Let's talk to your division commander and say that our battalion has requisitioned these equipment!"

The captain was foolish and deliberately said no number when he said "our camp", so that Zhang Chi and others could not find it afterwards.

As he said that, the captain reached out to grab the sniper rifle from Zhang Chi, but after snatching it twice, he couldn't take it away. He couldn't help but stare at Zhang Chi with fierce eyes.

"Do you dare not obey the order?" The captain was using the order to suppress Zhang Chi.

Zhang Chi smiled coldly and replied: "Sir, there is no problem with you with these equipment, but I'm afraid you can't afford it!"

"Just!" The captain responded without thinking: "Your engineer corps can afford it. Can't we troops who want to go to the battlefield to fight the Japanese?"

As he said that, the captain and the officers and soldiers he led all laughed.

"Sir!" After they had laughed enough, Zhang Chi replied: "We snatched these equipment from the Japanese. If you can bear it, take it!"

As he said that, Zhang Chi relaxed his hand and the sniper rifle landed on the captain's hand.

The laughter stopped abruptly, and everyone looked at Zhang Chi and others in amazement, especially the captain. He originally thought that these equipment were picked up by the soldiers of the engineers after being discarded when the British fled, but he did not expect that they were stolen from the Japanese.

You should know that this is a spoil stolen from the enemy on the battlefield. Who can "requisition" these spoils? This is a taboo in the army and it is also despised.

So the captain held the sniper rifle and was not retracted, and his face turned red and white, and his embarrassment was very embarrassing.

After a long time, the captain asked, "Did you take these from the Japanese?"

"Yes, sir!" Zhang Chi replied.

Of course, the sniper rifle was stolen from the Volunteers, but this detail does not need to be explained in detail.

"Battery Commander!" At this time, an adjutant came up and lowered his voice and said, "Didn't you hear that there was a platoon of engineers in Tonggu who defeated a squad of Japanese devils and seized a large amount of equipment? The platoon leader seemed to be called Zhang Chi!"

This surprised Zhang Chi a little. He didn't expect that his name had already spread in the Fifth Army.

What Zhang Chi didn't know was that his name was more than just spread to the Fifth Army...the entire expeditionary army and even the whole country were spreading.

This is actually nothing strange. The reason is that China was defeated repeatedly on the front battlefield at this time. The Japanese army not only occupied half of China, but also bombed Chongqing.

In this case, the Kuomintang needs a victory to boost the morale of the army, and the people hiding in the air-raid shelter need a victory to motivate themselves to persevere. Therefore, every victory on the battlefield in Myanmar will affect the hearts of the military and civilians across the country. Even the Kuomintang will exaggerate the victory for the purpose of "looking at the plum blossoms to quench thirst".

For example, the Battle of Tonggu was exaggerated as the 200th Division annihilated a main division of the Japanese army, and the Battle of Zhangchiwajieqiao was exaggerated as repelling a Japanese army, killing and injuring a brigade of Japanese soldiers.

(Note: It is true that the battle between the 200th Division and the Gu was exaggerated. The battle between the Zhang Chi Wajie Bridge was exaggerated by the author. If there is any similarity, it is purely a coincidence.)

"Well!" asked the captain, "You are Zhang Chi?"

"Report to the chief, I am Zhang Chi!"

"You guys...repelled more than a thousand Japanese devils?"

"Report to the chief, we are the ones!"

Zhang Chi's answer quickly caused a sensation among the soldiers other than the Engineer Regiment. They all looked at Zhang Chi with incredible eyes, and of course there was respect here.

"Yeah!" The captain nodded, and returned the sniper rifle to Zhang Chi with a slightly awkward expression. He lowered his voice and said, "I'm sorry, brother, you're right, I really can't bear it! Give me a face, don't worry..."

As he said that, he raised his head and said loudly: "A misunderstanding, the flood has washed away the Dragon King Temple. It's all my own people, please withdraw!"

Then he nodded to Zhang Chi and others, waved his hand and walked out of the warehouse with his troops. After walking for a few steps, he stopped and ordered the adjutant: "The brothers of the Engineering Corps must be hungry, so let the kitchen team get some food right away!"

"Yes!" the adjutant responded and immediately sent the order to trot all the way.

So Zhang Chi and others quickly enjoyed a big meal: a bucket of fragrant white rice and a basin of cabbage stewed pork.

You should know that this place is a military force, and it is also a Chinese army in a shortage of material resources. Usually, they can’t even see a little oil and meat, but they can eat pork at this time... This made the soldiers ecstatic. They all feasted around the pot of pork, and ate the large pot of pork without leaving any left. In the end, even the basin of meat was licked by the hooligans to "Bajibaji"!

"Oh! It feels so good to win a battle!" The gangster said while touching his round belly: "Look at the soldiers of the main force, who used to be arrogant on our heads, but now he was scared when he heard our number and even sent such a large basin..."

After saying that, the gangster burped hard.

"Why don't you say you're following the platoon leader?" The fellow villager said vaguely while picking his teeth with a sharpened bamboo: "This is also the name of our platoon leader!"

"Yes! Good to follow the platoon leader!" Xiao Zhejiang continued, "Follow the platoon leader... have meat to eat!"
