"Zhang Xuecheng is the eldest son of the second young marshal's family." At dusk, battalion commander Zhang Lianjie explained to his three company commanders.

At this time, they were sitting around in the woods on the side of the mountain. After repelling three attacks by Zhang Xuecheng's troops, they took the initiative to withdraw into the forest.

They are not in Jinzhou City, and the defense area of ​​their camp is undefensible.

Precisely because there was no danger to defend, Hu Biaolian lurked behind the high hill and launched a short, close assault against Zhang Xuecheng's troops who were attacking.

Their battle has ended like this. If they persist, their casualties will definitely increase.

Hu Biao reported the news to the battalion commander Zhang Lianjie that the people on the other side were the troops of the marshal's uncle and brother, and Zhang Lianjie quickly sent someone to deliver the news to Jinzhou City.

And when the correspondent came back, he brought back the corresponding order from above, "Since there is no danger to defend, then appropriately block the camera and retreat."

At this time, they were hiding here to avoid the enemy and began to listen to the battalion commander Zhang Lianjie's story about Zhang Xuecheng's origins.

Zhang Lianjie once worked as a guard for the young marshal, so he knew the affairs of the young marshal's family very clearly.

When the prisoner who voluntarily surrendered said that their head was Zhang Xuecheng, the people of the Northeast Army could not help but be surprised.

He and the young marshal are uncles and brothers, so they are blood relatives, unlike Zhang Lianjie. Although his surname is Zhang, he and the young marshal are nominally the same family, but they only have the same surname, and there is no blood relationship.

They defeated Zhang Xuecheng's attack and killed many of Zhang Xuecheng's men. It didn't matter. Who told them to defect to the Japanese?

But if one day they face Zhang Xuecheng himself, will they fight or not? In the past, Zhang Xuecheng is the "royal relative" of the young marshal. Naturally, they cannot kill him without the young marshal's clear order.

by Zhang Xuecheng.

Now that there is no need to fight for the time being, Zhang Lianjie began to tell his subordinates about Zhang Xuecheng.

"Lao Shuai's second brother followed Lao Shuai, but his second brother disappeared during a bandit campaign more than 20 years ago.

He has two sons in his family. Now that his father is gone, the old man naturally treats his two nephews very favorably. How is that any different from his own sons?

This kid Zhang Xuecheng first studied at our Northeast Military Academy, and then was sent by the old commander to the Japanese Army University for further studies.

You also know that our old commander has clear rewards and punishments. How can he do this to his own people, let alone his own nephew? He is indeed good to this boy.

It’s just that this kid doesn’t know what he’s thinking. After returning to China, he didn’t come to serve the old commander. Instead, he took refuge with the evil demon king Zhang Zongchang and became a division commander.”

At this point, Zhang Lianjie took out an iron cigarette box from his pocket, but when he opened the box, there were only two cigarettes left in it.

"Damn it, once the Peking University Camp is lost, I can't stop smoking anymore!" Zhang Lianjie complained.

His original intention was to give one to each of his three company commanders, but he only had two cigarettes, who could he give them to?

"Batalion Commander, I have it!" Hu Biao said hurriedly. He reached out and took out a whole box of cigarettes from his pocket.

When Hu Biao was busy giving cigarettes to a few of them, Zhang Lianjie asked: "How many days have it been? How come you, a big smoker, still have cigarettes in your hand?"

Hu Biao chuckled: "When we got the guns from the Beidaying Army Armory, my people found a lot of them! I don't know whose guns they belong to."

"It's difficult to make a fortune, right?" the company commander next to him laughed.

"No, no, this pack of cigarettes will be gone once you finish smoking it!" Hu Biao explained hurriedly.

After the four top officers of their battalion all lit their cigarettes, the battalion commander Zhang Lianjie puffed out a puff of smoke and continued: "Later, Zhang Zongchang was defeated by the Northern Expeditionary Army, and Zhang Xuecheng voted for Shi Yousan.

Third friend, you know that it is against our Fengjun army.

But later Shi Yousan was defeated by the Central Army and our Fengjun. This guy ran away to the Japanese Concession in Tianjin, and then there was no news about him.

Now it seems that he has defected to the Japanese again!"

Having said this, Zhang Lianjie shook his head, obviously he was disdainful of what the young marshal's uncle and brother had done.

"What did you say?" At this time, the third company commander said next to him.

But in his eagerness, he just couldn't remember it, and just grinned and frowned.

"Why do you just say that sentence?" Hu Biao asked.

"It's that word. Why can't I remember it when I say it? It's about that, that, that Lu Bu in the Three Kingdoms."

"Slave with three surnames?" Zhang Lianjie asked tentatively after a moment.

"Yes, yes, that's the word. Why did our young marshal's uncle and brother become a slave of the third surname?" The third company commander who was sitting cross-legged on the ground reached out and patted his thigh.

His shot can be seen as a sign of Zhang Lianjie's knowledge or as a lament for Zhang Xuecheng's surrender to the enemy.

The so-called domestic slaves with three surnames first appeared in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

The Chinese people have received the same cultural influence. Although people like them who march and fight may not have read many books, they have all read or heard of books such as The Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

During the Three Kingdoms period, Lu Bu, who was known as the best hero, was originally named Lu, and he was Ding Yuan's adopted son. He could also be named Ding. But later he recognized Dong Zhuo as his godfather. Aren't these three surnames?

This is how the allusion of the so-called domestic slaves with three surnames comes from. It says that a person without integrity is like a grass on the wall.

"They are slaves with the third surname. But when we encounter them, it's not up to us to decide whether they will be beaten to death. We have to wait for orders from above." Zhang Lianjie also sighed.

The three company commanders also understood what he meant, and naturally they all said "yes".

But at this moment, they heard the rustling of leaves. When several people turned to look, it turned out that the signal corpsmen from the regiment had arrived.

Zhang Lianjie stood up, and the signal soldier handed him a folded piece of paper.

Zhang Lianjie opened the piece of paper and looked at it for a moment, then his expression became serious, and then he said: "There is an order from above that our battalion must go back and look for an opportunity to kill that guy.
Chapter completed!
