While the troops of the 64th Army of the 29th Army and the Japanese army were tug-of-war on the front line, Zhang Fakui, commander-in-chief of the Second Corps of the Ninth War Zone, was already gradually taking his troops to take their troops.

The first thing to enter the city was Wang Jingjiu's 25th Army. Compared to his arrogant appearance when he clashed with Zhu Shaozhou in Luoyang, Wang Jingjiu became much more calm.

As the highest military commander in Jiujiang County, Zhang Tianhai naturally had to go out to welcome the arrival of Wang Jingjiu's army.

At this time, Wang Jingjiu was riding a tall horse slowly into the county town, and his face, which still looked young, was full of seriousness.

Zhang Tianhai stood at the front of the welcoming team. At a glance, he found the ranks of Wang Jingjiu, who was leading the horse and Wang Jingjiu, who was shining with golden light on the seal.

Zhang Tianhai suddenly guessed who this person was. He immediately stood attentively and saluted: "Report to Chief Wang! Representatives of the humble position, the troops stationed in Jiujiang County, welcome the arrival of the commanders!"

Wang Jingjiu gently held the brim of the military cap, and still looked at Zhang Tianhai with a proud face, saying, "Thank you for your hard work to welcome me and my 25th Army. My troops have come to the city to fight against Japan this time. I would like to ask you to fight against Japan with us and work together."

Wang Jingjiu's words seemed like a very aggressive word, but the arrogance in his expression was unprecedented.

Perhaps, this is related to his position as commander of the Ace Army.

Since entering the army, Wang Jingjiu has always been an officer of Chiang Kai-shek's guard force. Whether it is the commander of the 1st Brigade of the Guards or the commander of the 87th Division, these are all the aces among the aces!

It is precisely because of this that Wang Jingjiu is so arrogant. If it weren't for this, how could he have a conflict with Luoyang Commander Zhu Shaozhou?

It should be noted that Zhu Shaozhou has always been a big shot in the Baoding system, even though he is usually a low-key person.

Since he was transferred from the position of commander of the 71st Army, Wang Jingjiu learned from his mistakes and restrained himself a lot in his arrogant and domineering aspects.

It turns out that this so-called arrogance is only aimed at big guys of the same level or even bigger than his level.

An officer like Zhang Tianhai who is only at the level of a colonel is naturally no longer in his eyes.

More importantly, Zhang Tianhai is in the ninth war zone, while Wang Jingjiu is in the third war zone, which belongs to Gu Zhu and Chief Gu.

Whether in terms of qualifications or level, they are much better than Zhang Tian, ​​so naturally there is no need to be too respectful to Zhang Tianhai.

"Yes! Sir!" Zhang Tianhai said loudly after saluting military salute.

For Zhang Tianhai, this military salute was not for him, Wang Jingjiu, but for the 25th Army, because they had to fight in the next tough battle!

Whether the 25th Army's troops can hold on will be directly related to the victory or defeat of the Jiujiang defense battle.

As for the troops of the 12th Army like Sun Tongxuan, Zhang Tianhai had never expected it.

It is not that Sun Tongxuan and other troops from Shandong Army cannot fight or not, but because this army suffered too heavy losses at the time of the Battle of Xuzhou. When supplying supplies in the rear, they must not be as preferred and best supplemented as the Central Army units like Zhang Tianhai and others.

It is precisely because of this that there will inevitably be many impacts in combat effectiveness. This is not what Zhang Tianhai hopes to see, but the fact is so cruel.

Sun Tongxuan's troops are not expected for the time being. Li Hanhun's 29th Legion is now in a fierce battle with the Japanese army. There may not be many soldiers to fight in this battle in Hukou.

So Zhang Tianhai saw it very clearly. Only Wu Qiwei's Fourth Army and Wang Jingjiu's 25th Army, and finally Huo Kuizhang's 54th Army and Peng Shan's 11th Division!

It is said that the King of Hell is easy to mess with, but the little ghost is difficult to deal with.

In Zhang Tianhai's opinion, Wang Jingjiu has undoubtedly been included in the ranks of little ghosts.

Moreover, Wang Jingjiu is still a "little devil" with considerable strength.

Although Zhang Fakui, commander-in-chief of the Second Corps of the Ninth War Zone, had a high status, it would be difficult to ask these arrogant soldiers and generals of the Central Army to listen to him. The only thing he could know was Wu Qiwei's Fourth Army.

Therefore, Zhang Tianhai was even more reluctant to offend Wang Jing for a long time at this stage because of some trivial matters. Who knows if he would do something like Li Tianxia did later?

In daily life, you can avoid offending others, so try not to offend others, let alone this period of war.

Seeing that Zhang Tianhai did not show any dissatisfaction expression, Wang Jingjiu nodded slightly and said, "At this stage, my 25th Army headquarters is temporarily set up in Jiujiang, and a division of our army will be stationed at Xingzipu. Your regiment will temporarily be under our command before receiving the orders from the Second Corps Command or the Commander-in-Chief of the War Zone. Are you willing to obey the order?"

Faced with Wang Jingjiu's somewhat excessive request, Zhang Tianhai did not say anything else, but nodded and responded loudly: "I firmly obey the command of Chief Wang! Chief Wang's troops are superior troops of our Central Army. I should obey the order!"

Wang Jingjiu nodded slightly, put away the domineering expression on his face, nodded seriously, and said, "Okay, then let's do it first! Now the large army is about to enter the city, and Commander Huo's 54th Army will soon arrive in Jiujiang. Your general is ready to hand over at any time. If Commander Huo's troops take over your position, your army must immediately give up the position and wait for his troops to garrison."

"Yes! Sir!" Zhang Tianhai responded loudly.

"The troops enter the city!" Wang Jingjiu waved his whip lightly, his face full of calmness - because his other division was already entering Xingzipu!

Looking at Wang Jingjiu's departure, Guo Qiliang approached Zhang Tianhai and said softly: "This Huangpu first-class student is really arrogant and domineering..."

"Not all, look at our master's seat, where are you so arrogant?" Zhang Tianhai said in a deep voice, saying in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

"It seems... you are also very dissatisfied with this guy and swallow your anger. This is not your style..." Guo Qiliang sighed.

"Did you treat me like a fool?" Zhang Tianhai turned around and looked at Guo Qiliang with a resentful look on his face.

When he heard Zhang Tianhai's words, Guo Qiliang pretended to be shocked, and then said with surprise: "How is that possible?! Everyone in our group may be a fool, but only you, Captain Zhang, cannot be a fool. The whole group knows this. How could I treat you as a fool?"

"Then you are still picking up the fact that I am going to have a conflict with Chief Wang Jingjiu? Can we twist our thighs with our little arms and legs?" Zhang Tianhai sighed to the sky, feeling that it is so unpredictable. Do you have to start adjusting the work in charge of the group...

The point is that Guo Qiliang no longer takes him seriously.
