"Road, Wei He, the battalion commander of the first battalion, reported to you!" When he walked to Zhang Tianhai, Wei He had a smile on his face. After all, he has also experienced the pleasure of being a battalion commander now. This may be considered as an experience of the four joys of life in advance!

Well... For a person like Wei He who has no culture but is full of force, being a battalion commander is considered a gold list title. Although this battalion commander is temporary...

"Be serious, don't smile at me. I have important tasks to you now." Zhang Tianhai said with a serious face. It's time. He really has no mood to joke with Wei He. If he is still in the mood to play jokes, he can make fun and brag.

"Yes!" Wei He was not the one who didn't know the times. Seeing the look of the group leader, he knew that this mission would never be that simple.

Zhang Tianhai took a deep breath and said, "Weihe, I want your temporary battalion to enter the position of Chunhua Town, and hold it for at least three hours before retreating. The Japanese reinforcements will arrive soon, and the troops will not be small. I just estimated that we have wiped out at least seven or eight hundred Japanese devils in this battle. Do you know what this number means? This is very likely a Japanese brigade that will be replenished after the war."

Wei He did not make any statement, he knew that there must be something next behind the pedestal.

Zhang Tianhai looked at Wei He and continued, "A brigade was destroyed by our penetration regiment in less than 20 minutes. It is impossible for the Japanese army to not be alert, and their follow-up troops will definitely not be short. Now these ordinary people are walking too slowly. If there is not enough time, we cannot let them go a certain distance."

"Team, Bei Zhi understands what you mean. To put it bluntly, let me take the temporary battalion to carry out the mission of the palace." Wei He grinned, but his smile was full of simplicity.

"Listen, Lao Wei, this is a life-and-death task. If you are lucky, you can break through and retreat. If you are unlucky..." I don't know why, since entering the Shanghai battlefield, when talking about these problems of separation and death, Zhang Tianhai's emotions have always become particularly fragile and prone to sore noses.

Especially Wei He, the person who directly brought Zhang Tianhai back from the brink of death, always treated himself like a brother. This time he issued an order to die. Perhaps this farewell, there will be no chance of seeing each other again in this life.

When Zhang Tianhai thought of this, he felt very uncomfortable. He still owed Wei He a life, but it was time for him, and Zhang Yulin had no other way. Apart from Wei He and Liu Houming, who else could he fully trust?

It is impossible to let such a brother who has experienced life and death together go to the death and say it is not uncomfortable in his heart - this is the person who trusts him the most in the world. He trusts him so much that he is not afraid of life and death, and can be ignored.

"I know, the rank of the group, I understand your intentions. I am not afraid to tell you that I have always treated you as my elder brother. You are not only the leader of our rank of the rank of Zhiyi Group, but also the backbone of the old brothers of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of Wei He, but there must be no rank of the rank. With me Wei He here in this battle, you can take the people with confidence to retreat. Without three hours, the Japanese would never be able to pass through Chunhua Town." As he said that, Wei He's eyes also turned red, but he still squeezed out a smile that was even worse than crying.

When facing a farewell to life and death, sometimes what you give up is not just a life of your own, but also your endless attachment to the world, your debt to raising your parents, and your infinite imagination and expectation for the future.

What is the ultimate courage? It means standing up at the critical moment of national survival and demise, and knowing that it is death, but daring to die!

"Wei He, I know your intentions. Remember to come back alive. If you can come back alive, I will be promoted to you as a real battalion commander!" Zhang Tianhai patted Wei He on the shoulder and suppressed his trembling nasal sound.

"Okay. I'm waiting for the words of the Tuanzhang." Wei He grinned, revealing his white white teeth, full of warmth and simplicity. "But, if I can't come back, can Tuanzhang promise me something?"

"Tell me! As long as I can do my best." It's time, Zhang Tianhai will certainly agree to the request made by Wei He, not to mention that he still owe someone his life, right?

"If I can't come back, remember to help me take care of my parents. No one in my life will ever owe me, but I owe my parents the most. My elder brother died at the Japanese gun when he was traveling to the Northeast a few years ago. In this way, I killed so many Japanese on the front line, which is worthy of my elder brother. It's considered a bloody revenge for him. But my parents sent me to learn martial arts since I was a child, so that one day I can make a fortune. Now, I am also promising. Having the opportunity to become a battalion commander can be considered as a good wish..." Wei He said softly, full of sighs.

Zhang Tianhai was listening to Wei He's speech all the time, without interrupting the latter. This was the first time he heard Wei He talk about why he joined the army and his family affairs. Perhaps it was because he had the shadow of Wei He's dead brother, so Wei He kept following him to fight to kill the enemy, fearless of death.

"Okay, I promise you this request. From now on, since your parents are my parents of Zhang Tianhai, if you violate this oath, you will not die well!" Zhang Tianhai solemnly raised his right hand and raised those three fingers. This was the only promise he could give.

A gentleman’s promise should be worth a thousand gold!

"Okay, I feel relieved if the regiment commander said this. Please rest assured that the regiment commander is temporarily in the first battalion. The troops must be in the position. Three hours ago, I, Wei He, would never let a Japanese man go!" Wei He solemnly saluted a military salute.

Zhang Tianhai patted Wei He on the shoulder again and said, "Okay, stop talking about those depressing words, carry out the mission well. When you come back, I will personally promote you to battalion commander!"

"Yes!" Wei He responded again, and a simple smile appeared on his honest face.

Just as Zhang Tianhai was about to leave, Xiao Peizhu, Yang Ding and two company commanders ran to Zhang Tianhai and said, "Report to the commander, our two companies have already been gathered."

"Well, how many casualties are you in the company, Company Commander Xiao?" Zhang Tianhai asked. After all, the main attack mission this time was handed over to Xiao Peiyuan Company, and the question of how many casualties they in the company must be asked.

"We have a total of 32 casualties, 21 of whom died on the spot, three were seriously injured, and eight were slightly injured." Xiao Peiyan reported truthfully.

Zhang Tianhai waved his hand and said, "Okay, remember to bring the seriously injured people with us. Let's try to bring them all out of the jurisdiction of Nanjing. We can't leave a brother behind."

"Yes!" Xiao Peizhi saluted excitedly.

"What about your company?" Zhang Tianhai looked at Yang Dinghe, the commander of the machine cannon company.

"Report to the sir, I have no casualties in my company!" Yang Dinghe stood at attention and saluted.

After hearing this news, Zhang Tianhai finally felt relieved. He said, "Okay, organize a retreat immediately! You two companies are still the same rules, follow me!"

"Yes, sir!" Xiao Pei-chan, Yang Ding and the two responded in unison.

Before leaving, Zhang Tianhai did not forget to nod at Wei He. He meant to wait for the good news of Wei He's victory return.

Wei He also nodded to Zhang Tianhai, indicating that Zhang Tianhai would be relieved, and that he would be worry-free behind him.

What is trust? What is brotherly love between comrades? This is called trust, this is called brotherly love between comrades!

It is the solemn promise when there is a dangerous task - don’t worry if I am here!
