Next, there were some troubles along the way, but the marching speed did not slow down much. The whole marching speed was still quite fast. Except for these women training, the others marched almost day and night.
In addition to eating every day, there is rest. Of course, the total rest time does not exceed four hours. As for eating, I eat it directly on the road without any delay.
As for these women, they gradually adapted to such a high-intensity march, but they were still quite tired. Even though they sat in the carriage for six hours a day to rest, the rest of the time they were marching long distances, they were exhausted.
Ten days later, Zhang Tianhao and his party finally arrived in Yan'an in a hurry, running most of the way. They covered almost a thousand miles.
You should know that some carriages were also bought on the road, and they traveled day and night, with the horses resting and the people resting. The rest of the time was spent on traveling.
Even the purchased horse has lost a lot of weight.
Except for the four surviving soldiers, even Zhang Tianhao and even the members of the special forces felt exhausted all over and wished they could fall down in one place and take a rest.
After all, they now have to pass through the Japanese defense zone, instead of going directly from Xi'an.
Originally, I was told to go through Xi'an, but the road was still too far.
"Master, there are people over there in front, what should we do now?"
"Find a place to change into ordinary people's clothes, and these women are almost done now. Just change into guerrilla clothes. As for the rest, as for the other things, you don't have to worry about it. It's all my business.
.”
Zhang Tianhao looked at the other party, then took out a radio and sent a telegram directly to Yan'an. After all, he came in person, and people there had to be arranged to pick him up.
Of course, he sent it here to the eldest sister, and then she forwarded it to have people come to his place to receive them.
…
Yan'an, Minister Li looked at the telegram in his hand and couldn't help but laugh.
That fake guy has been here for almost half a month. It's better to come now, but he didn't understand what Zhang Tianhao did.
"Come here, go to Yangjia Town and bring me the people there. There are about a hundred people there."
Minister Li looked at the people beside him and immediately ordered: "In addition, you should ride over immediately and go fast."
Minister Li couldn't help but smile.
After a while, he began to put down the matter, buried his head in the documents again, and read them carefully.
…
Here in Yangjia Town, Zhang Tianhao and his party have already made contact with the local army. There is a full regiment of troops here to surround them.
"Who are you and why are you bringing so many troops? Tell us your names, otherwise we will kill you for being Japanese spies."
A regimental leader led a group of people to surround Zhang Tianhao and the others.
"Are you the leader of this regiment? Bring us some food. It is estimated that your superiors will send someone over in three or four hours. I don't have time to talk to you now. Put down your weapons. Don't worry about me.
He hurt his own family."
Zhang Tianhao walked over, looked at the group leader, and said calmly.
At the same time, he turned to his subordinates and said: "Put down your weapons too, we are not enemies!"
"yes!"
At this time, there were less than a hundred people behind Zhang Tianhao, including fifteen women found in the village.
There were originally 93 members of the special force, but now there are only 60 left, including three who died in the battle. Zhang Tianhao transferred ten people to Xi'an to protect Du Xinran and Chen Wanqing. After all, it is not safe for the two of them without anyone to protect them.
As for the remaining twenty people, they were directly arranged to Shanghai and sent to Afa's side. After all, the manpower there was still seriously insufficient.
"Who are you?"
The leader of the group saw that Zhang Tianhao and his party all had guns, but now they had put their guns down.
"Who are you?"
"Due to the need for confidentiality, it is best for you not to know. Otherwise, you know the consequences clearly and do not report it to your superiors. I have already sent a telegram to your superiors to find a place for us to rest and give us some more
Food, we are very tired."
Zhang Tianhao didn't bother talking to them, but said directly to the group leader seriously.
"you……"
The regiment leader then looked at Zhang Tianhao and his party. They were quite well-equipped. They even had two machine guns and submachine guns. Not to mention that everyone had weapons in their hands, at least 38-sized ones. As for the carriage,
It also dragged a lot of weapons.
These weapons must be equipped with at least one or two companies, but they are just pulled and placed on top.
"you……"
He squeaked again and wanted to say something, but he still didn't say anything. After all, Zhang Tianhao's words had been quite clear.
"Prepare some food for them. In addition, I will send a company to keep an eye on them. If there is any abnormal behavior, they will be shot on the spot." The regiment leader was also a little confused, but he was still willing to wait.
Zhang Tianhao didn't have any dissatisfaction. After everyone ate some dry food, they found a place, next to the wall or a tree, and sat there directly, leaning against the wall and began to rest.
As for the sentries, there are quite a few of them. No matter how tired you are, there are still people on sentry duty. This point is absolutely not allowed to be relaxed.
…
"Hello, Captain Cheng, we are here to pick up some friends on orders from Minister Li!"
Three hours later, two soldiers on horseback ran into the compound of the 26th Regiment and spoke seriously to Commander Cheng. While speaking, they took out a document with a note from Minister Li on it.
"Minister Li!"
Captain Cheng was also stunned. He immediately thought of Zhang Tianhao's words and nodded. Then he pointed to a group of people resting not far away and said, "That's them over there, but they seem to be very tired?"
"I don't know the specific situation, but I am definitely tired. I will call them. Also, let the soldiers withdraw, so as not to give a bad impression to the friendly forces."
"yes!"
Just hearing about friendly troops, Commander Cheng was also stunned.
"Okay, I'll call them!"
"No, as you can see, they are really tired, so let them rest for an extra hour and then go on their way again!"
"That's okay. Damn it, I thought it was an enemy, but it turned out to be a friendly force!" Commander Cheng also looked helpless, but when he heard that it was a friendly force, he immediately thought of something, but he still didn't say it, let alone
I want to ask about it. After all, some things cannot be inquired about randomly.
Zhang Tianhao just lay down on the table and fell asleep. He finished eating in five minutes, then lay there and fell asleep. As for whether Captain Cheng would take action, he was very relieved and not afraid.
These people take action.
After another hour, Zhang Tianhao raised his head, looked at his men who were still resting, and breathed a sigh of relief. Everything was as expected.
"Hello, is this Mr. Zhang? I was sent by Minister Li to take you to the headquarters. Can you take me to the headquarters now?"
Zhang Tianhao looked back at his subordinates not far away, and sighed. This time he rested for five hours, which was considered the longest rest.
"Go and call for help, blow the trumpet, get up, and get ready to march!"
"yes!"
"By the way, these weapons are given to you!"
He pointed at the weapons on the car and said calmly: "Just choose a dozen of the better ones and keep them, and don't need the others!"
