Chapter 766 Brother Zhang (Part 1)
Finished smoking one cigarette!
“Brother, the defeat of Jinling was actually caused by man-made disasters rather than natural disasters. I, the commander of the army, can't control it, so you are too sad!” Commander Zhang sighed slightly. "The Japanese invaders thought they were using this cruelty to undermine the confidence of the Chinese military and civilians, but they did not know that they had done a big stupid thing. This would only arouse the anger of our entire army. Otherwise, how could they have reunited 600,000 people here in less than half a month? An act of great force?”
"General Zhang, the tragedy of Tang Dao is not just the tragedy of Jinling." Tang Dao shook his head, his face was dull, and he said in a solemn voice. "General Zhang, if I told you that Tang Dao had seen this tragedy happen in his dream, would you believe it?"
Commander Zhang suddenly realized it!
It turns out that what makes Tang Dao sad is that he had foreseen the tragedy but was unable to prevent it. As a soldier, this is naturally a life-long pain.
Although the so-called "saw it in a dream" has some myths and ghosts, for a veteran who has been in the army for more than 20 years, it can be attributed to intuition, just like he had been frightened for several days before the North China Incident.
Sure enough, within half a month, the frequently mobilized Japanese army used the disappearance of a Japanese soldier as an excuse to enter Wancheng for search, which eventually led to the outbreak of the entire war.
The thick eyebrows raised slightly, "Brother, you are a real soldier. You always think about the country and the army. As the saying goes, you think about it every day and dream about it at night. With the brutality of the Japanese invaders, you have done such evil things that are outraged by both humans and gods, even if you are not in Aurous Hill. It could be somewhere else. But I believe what you said.”
"Then if I say, I was in those dreams that made me burst into tears." Tang Dao turned his gaze to Commander Zhang, his eyes like a torch, "I vaguely saw you, you were lying in the coffin covered in blood, do you blame me? "
Tang Dao's words seemed extremely rude, especially among the Chinese who are very particular about auspiciousness. He is standing here perfectly fine, but you want to say that you saw him dying in a battle and lying in a coffin in a dream. Most people would not be afraid of that. Turn your back and leave immediately.
Of course Commander Zhang is no ordinary person.
After being slightly stunned, he finally understood why Tang Dao had previously ranked him before Commander Wu. It was not because he was helping him as a icing on the cake, but because he had seen his own death in his dream.
This is very unlucky, but it suits my mood very well! After he became the mayor of Yanjing and failed to negotiate with the Japanese army and lost Pingjin, facing the overwhelming public opinion condemning the "traitors", this kind of outcome was what he thought about day and night!
With a joyful look on his face, Tang Dao replied sonorously and forcefully: "The fate of our soldiers is to be wrapped in horse leather. If we can leave our bodies covered in blood and leave them in the coffin, it means that I, Zhang, died well and as I wished!" It couldn't be better.”
Sure enough! Tang Dao sighed in his heart!
Many analyzes by future military scholars have shown that in the battle of Zaoyi, as the commander of the group army, this famous general could have left his headquarters in the rear instead of following the army in person on the front line. He was intensively exposed and surrounded by Japanese outflanking troops. He could have stayed in the guard camp to fight and escaped in disguise, but he actually participated in the battle personally with a rifle in his hand. This may be related to his determination to die to prove his innocence because of the Pingjin Incident. Has a great relationship.
For a patriotic general to be labeled a "traitor", the blow to him is actually devastating.
The desire to die in this man's heart had been buried half a year ago, and even lasted for several years. This cannot be solved by anyone's enlightenment, and it can only be solved slowly.
Tang Dao's face softened a little, "Commander Zhang, Tang Dao just looked at the name of Jinling and thought of the soldiers and civilians who were massacred. He had nowhere to vent his anger, so he talked nonsense. I hope the commander will consider Tang Dao's young age. For my sake, don't blame me.”
"Haha! Where did Captain Tang say this? Ever since you Tang Dao disobeyed the military order and led 100 soldiers to guard the four lines, but killed the Japanese invaders to death, no one in this world dares to treat you Tang Dao as a young man. Although you are really young enough, we old guys are quite envious! I only regret that I am old and frail, and I can no longer have the same physical strength as when I was young, otherwise I will definitely meet the little devil face to face with a steel knife in my hand! "Commander Zhang laughed.
"In this way, although you are young, you have made great achievements in battle. You may have wiped out more enemies than old guys like me and Lao Wu. As soldiers, we don't judge heroes based on our age! We don't have the respect of Commander Zhang and Commander Tang. I call you brother. I am forty-seven years old, more than twenty years older than you. I call you brother, so you can call me Brother Zhang, okay? "
"In my hometown dialect, of course I'll get it! Hello, Brother Zhang!" Most of the soldiers have a cheerful temperament, and Commander Zhang said so. Tang Dao will naturally not be pretentious, he can shout neatly, and he can stretch out his hands very quickly.
However, looking at the hand that the newly recognized Brother Tang stretched out in front of him, the future nationally famous anti-Japanese heroic general was obviously a little confused, "This is it?"
“I already recognize the eldest brother, but the eldest brother is not allowed to send a red envelope to the younger brother!” Tang Dao said with a smile on his face.
“Haha! This is what I dare to say.” Zhang Jun was delighted. No wonder Commander Wu called the Tang Dao “open-mouth hob meat, closed-mouth hob meat”. This special force is very accurate!
But he shook his head again and again, "You want a red envelope! If we were in Yanjing, I would still be able to get it for fifty oceans, not to mention more, but now you, Brother Zhang, have just been appointed commander of the 59th Army by the Ministry of Military Affairs. Today, I haven't received my military salary for several months, and I'm not afraid of your ridicule. Besides the pistol I have on me, I can still **** a few dollars, but my pockets are cleaner than my face.”
“Dear me, Brother Zhang, you either want to stay and chat with Chief Wu, or you just want to mess with him!” Tang Dao smiled mischievously. "Poor Sir Wu, I thought you were thinking about our old friendship, but little did you know that food is more important than people."
Being teased like this by Tang Dao, an ordinary person would probably blush.
"Where, the food is delicious, but it depends on who you eat with, right! Brother Jingshan will not stick to such small details." Commander Zhang was much more free and easy than Tang Dao imagined, facing Tang Dao was not annoyed by such teasing, but replied with a smile. "Besides, just because there is no red envelope now, it doesn't mean there won't be one in the future. When will I receive my military pay, brother? As the saying goes, if the red envelope is placed on mountains and seas, all mountains and seas can be leveled!"
“It's okay to make a promise, but I'm afraid you're the only one who can make a promise so romantic!” Tang Dao was stunned for a moment, shook his head and smiled.
“This evaluation of making a white note is on par with Brother Jingshan's evaluation of Brother, you have a knife and a knife! It's concise and concise, but it's unconventional and extremely accurate!” Commander Zhang sighed slightly.
Then, the two looked at each other and laughed.
There was a sense of freedom and ease in this smile, but also a sense of helplessness, but more importantly, it was Tang Dao's admiration for the character of this great army commander. A general who commands tens of thousands of troops can honestly say that his pockets are cleaner than his face. No matter what era he is, he is a respectable being.
This smile made the slight sense of strangeness between the two disappear.
Amid laughter, the two of them sat back at the table in a good mood.
“Brother, aren't you curious about what phone call I just answered?” Commander Zhang started the conversation first. "It's nothing more than the person from the 20th Legion personally calling you, Brother Zhang, to find out what you think of Tang Dao!" Tang Dao's lips curled up slightly. "Just dealing with the 67th Army and the Four Lines Regiment has already made him scratch his head. If you add your 59th Army to the mix, his head will naturally hurt. He is extremely hoping that you will say it is just the right time. ”
“Brother, you are so awesome, I made you guess 70% to 80%!” Commander Zhang gave Tang Dao a thumbs up, but said with a slight smile on his face. "Then brother, how do you guess I asked the military department to reply to that person? If you guess correctly, I can agree to a condition for you, as long as my 59th Army can help."
Faced with such an attractive proposal from Commander Zhang, how could Tang Dao, a guy known as a 'little expert in taking advantage', let it go? He turned his head desperately looking at the indifference on the face of this famous anti-Japanese general.
"You won't tell him, you are free to do as you like. Tang Dao is so doting and doting, so he should be given a severe lesson!" Tang Dao replied tentatively.
“Pfft!” Commander Zhang Da just had time to take a sip of hot tea and spit it out.
He looked at Tang Dao dumbfounded, "How did you know? Did you eavesdrop on me?"
“Uh!” Tang Dao was also stunned. "I just went against the grain and made a wild guess."
"I understand, Brother Zhang, this is the most typical way of doing the opposite. The more you want to put aside the relationship, the more you make him suspicious, making him think that after he does this, you are doing his thing behind his back. Little move!" Tang Dao suddenly became enlightened.
"Good guy, this can make you hit by mistake." When Commander Zhang heard what Tang Dao said, he knew that Tang Dao was not eavesdropping or thinking carefully enough to deduce his answer. He shook his head and sighed: "No wonder someone I often lament: Whether a person is successful or not, hard work is very important, luck is even more important! No one can guess 99% of your luck.”
"Hehe! Brother Tang, although your mind is far more mature than your peers, you rose up during the war and still lack the skills of the human heart. Especially these old foxes who have been in the officialdom for a long time, you still don't understand them very well." Commander Zhang chuckled. "For example, you said that he called me to ask me about my attitude to see if I, Zhang, was on your Tang Dao side with the 67th Army to weigh whether it would be easy to deal with you. Yes, but no!"
“Brother Zhang, please give me some advice!” Tang Dao looked curious.
Just as Commander Zhang said, Tang Dao has never been sharpened in a too high position in his past life or this life, and the people he has come into contact with are all straightforward soldiers. Naturally, he does not know much about the thoughts of these old foxes in the officialdom. At most, Tang Dao knew from some books that these old foxes' desire for power was far beyond ordinary people's imagination.
"Yes, that means he wants to deal with you. No, it involves a wider area. It involves the prevention of our Northwest Army and the Northeast Army represented by Jingshan." Commander Zhang's eyes narrowed slightly, his face An angry expression emerged from the top of the army: "Do you think that when the country is unified, the fighting between these factions will stop? If the whole country can really be unified, how can Songhu and Jinling be defeated?"
He is the commander-in-chief of the whole country. If he treats the army of the whole country well and treats all the armies equally, how can the generals of various factions be wary of each other, so that the combat effectiveness is only 70% to 80% at best? "
“What do you mean?”
"That's right. On the surface, what he wants to ask is whether our 59th Army has joined forces with the 67th Army. In fact, he is testing whether our Northwest Army and Northeast Army have reached an agreement at some level. His teacher has been wary of it two years ago. That happens again!"
"Since he wants to know, then I will tell him clearly that today I am just enforcing the law impartially. Whether your Tang Dao is dead or alive has nothing to do with our 59th Army!" Commander Zhang sneered. "But the more I said this, the more he muttered in his heart. This is the most typical villain mentality. He is a villain, so he will subconsciously treat everyone in the world as villains, thinking that I, Zhang, am covering up! There must be an unknown purpose behind it.”
“Do you think it's ridiculous?”
“Haha, he is indeed a villain.” Tang Dao said with a smile. "Thank you, Brother Zhang, for taking care of me. Once you say this, at least in Xuzhou City, Tang Dao doesn't have to worry about being blackmailed."
"Brother Tang, Brother Tang, you are looking up to Brother Zhang and me. I dare say that even if I don't do this, that guy in Xuzhou City won't be able to touch you at all." Commander Zhang nodded the Tang Dao with his hand and said with a smile. "You seemed to be reckless and ignored the dozens of guns of his 20th legion, but in fact you had already ambushed the elite gunmen! If a conflict really happened, I'm afraid you would kill the two most threatening machine guns as soon as possible. In such a short time At such a distance, the submachine gun will subconsciously choose the shooting angle to avoid accidentally injuring its comrades. This will give your 20 cavalrymen a chance to show off their swords. They will definitely be the ones who die in the end.
Also, the 67th Army is not a vegetarian. Not only is a lieutenant general rushing to support you, but a guard battalion and a cavalry company are rushing straight to Xuzhou City with real actions. Prove that for your Tang Dao, the 67th Army would not hesitate to fight his 20th Army?
Chief Li was furious. He called the 20th Army Corps Headquarters and scolded the guy. If he really dared to attack you, Commander Tang Da, in Xuzhou City, then I really respect him as a man.
However, just because Xuzhou City does not dare, it does not mean that it does not dare to do so elsewhere. If the 67th Army is stationed in a place far away from your Fourth Army, you still have to be more vigilant. "
"Thank you, Brother Zhang, for your concern. Since I dare to do this, I have already prepared for it! My four-pronged group has never been afraid of thousands of Japanese invaders, so why should we be afraid of him? It doesn't matter if there are too many people. There are no more Courage is nothing more than a bunch of chickens and dogs!" Tang Dao said proudly.
"Okay, you guessed it right, I will fulfill my promise of course, just put forward any conditions!" Commander Zhang nodded.
Obviously, he still doesn't understand Tang Dao very well.
Comrade Lao Wu would definitely remind him that if you don't ask for Tang Dao, he will take advantage of you if you can. If you open your mouth, you will definitely lose a lot.
Tang Dao was a little shy and said coyly: "Ahem! I'm looking for Brother Zhang for help but I don't know how to speak! You've already said so, so I'll just say it straight."
With a slight thump in his heart, Commander Zhang, who was considered an old fox in the officialdom, quickly made amends: "As long as it's not money, you really don't have anything like that. If you need equipment, I can also support you partially."
"It's really about money!" Tang Dao was very direct.
PS: This holiday is even busier than usual classes. I have a lot of phone calls when I get up in the morning, and there are social activities in the evening.
