A ray of morning light shone through the curtains into the bedroom.
A gentle voice sounded in the house, "Hong Ming...it's time to get up..."
"Why are you getting up so early? It's only... well... it's not yet seven o'clock. We can still sleep for a while." Gao Hongming opened his eyes in a daze, feeling the whiteness and smoothness in his arms, like suet.
Her soft jade-like body began to touch around with her hands.
"It's already late." The female voice became a little urgent, "Ziying will come over later to help us wash up. What will she think when she sees us like this?"
"What are you afraid of? If you get angry, I'll take her in to see if she still dares to be arrogant."
"Look... the fox's tail is exposed. Have you already had your eye on Ziying?"
"No, I was just talking casually."
Qin Xiulian's originally weak and boneless slender jade hands suddenly transformed into nine-yin white bone claws, and twisted Gao Hongming's waist: "Humph... Man, you always eat from the bowl and look at the pot. But she was originally mine.
It's not impossible for a maid to be a dowry to fill your house, but it will take some time, you know?"
Gao Hongming's voice stopped suddenly. While enduring the pain in his waist, he was also a little confused by the sudden news. He stammered for a while: "Cultivation... then... then what, it's the Republic of China now, it's long been
Monogamy was implemented in the first year of the Republic of China, how could I do anything random?"
"Is it?"
Qin Xiulian sneered: "Let me ask you, what happened to Dr. Xie in the militia?"
Gao Hongming's heart immediately jumped violently: "I was wronged, wife, I really have nothing to do with Dr. Xie."
"It doesn't matter? It doesn't matter. You use all kinds of means to keep her?"
Looking at Qin Xiulian's half-smiling expression, Gao Hongming clearly saw the word "jealousy" written on her face.
But as a man, some skills are always self-taught.
He straightened his face: "No, Dr. Xie and I are innocent. Xiulian, you can doubt me, but you can't doubt her. You must know that she is now the captain of the medical team.
The more than 2,000 brothers in the entire militia relied on her and the doctors and nurses of the medical brigade to save their lives after they went to the battlefield. If what you just said were spread, what would you make her think? If she left in anger, who would be in charge of the affairs of the medical brigade in the future?
?”
Seeing her husband's face, Qin Xiulian, who had been so petty just now, felt guilty and lowered her head: "I'm just curious to ask, don't be angry."
Seeing Qin Xiulian softening, Gao Hongming secretly breathed a sigh of relief. No wonder Gu Long taught us that there may be women who don't eat, but there are absolutely no women who are not jealous.
He reached out and stroked Qin Xiulian's long, smooth hair and comforted: "Okay... I'm not angry, but the medical brigade is too important to the militia. It can be said that as long as everyone goes to the battlefield, everyone may be injured.
The only people who can save us at this time are Dr. Xie and the doctors and nurses of the medical team, so you can’t offend anyone by offending the doctor, do you understand?”
Qin Xiulian snuggled into his arms and whispered softly: "Yeah!"
The two of them were cozy for a while, and then there was a knock on the door. It turned out that the girl Ziying had come over with water, and the two of them got up.
After getting dressed, Qin Xiulian let out a soft groan as soon as she got out of bed and took a step forward. She stumbled and almost fell. Gao Hongming, who had quick eyes and quick hands, quickly helped her, but received a blank look in return.
Gao Hongming didn't take it seriously and smiled with an innocent expression.
After washing up, Gao Hongming went to the restaurant. Ziying Clothing Qin Xiulian washed up and saw that his lady seemed to have a fairer and more delicate luster than before. Her two beautiful eyebrows also began to stretch to both sides. She didn't understand what happened.
, laughed in a low voice: "Miss, congratulations, you finally got what you wanted."
"You damn girl."
Qin Xiulian's pretty face blushed, and she stretched out her slender jade fingers and tapped Ziying's smooth forehead, "What's there to congratulate? Sooner or later, you will have such a day."
"Miss, you are bullying me again!" Ziying's little face suddenly turned red, she put down her towel and ran away...
After breakfast, Gao Hongming looked at the 500,000-to-1 Shanxi map he had spent a lot of money to get in his study and began to think about it.
There are now less than six days before the press conference held by Yan Laoxi. It is three to four hundred kilometers from Liantai County to Kenanpo. In later generations, the journey would only take three or four hours in this place with almost no decent roads.
It would take at least several days to walk, and that was only if everything went well, so there wasn't much time left for him.
So when he was having breakfast, he told Qin Xiulian his plan.
"Hong Ming, are you leaving today?" Qin Xiulian's eyes were a little red. After all, the two of them had just consummated their marriage last night and were about to separate today. Not to mention how reluctant they were to leave.
Looking at his wife who was about to shed tears at any time, Gao Hongming put his arm around her shoulders and comforted her: "Xiulian, you don't have to be sad. I'm just attending a press conference. I'll be back in half a month at most."
After comforting her for a while, Qin Xiulian's mood improved, "By the way, Hong Ming, Kenanpo is hundreds of kilometers away from us, and we have to pass through some Japanese-occupied areas. You need to bring more people with you."
Just go."
Gao Hongming nodded: "I know, so I plan to bring all the militiamen with me this time?"
"Bring them all?"
Qin Xiulian was startled and hesitated before saying: "Is this... too much?"
"What are you afraid of?" Gao Hongming said indifferently: "The militia has only been established for a short time. It is difficult to quickly improve the combat effectiveness of the troops just by training on weekdays. Therefore, I plan to take the team out to practice. It is best to experience
After one or two actual battles, the combat effectiveness of the troops can be quickly improved."
"All right!"
Seeing that her husband had made up his mind, Qin Xiulian naturally didn't say anything more. After Gao Hongming gave some instructions, he hurriedly took Dabao to Xiaocao Village.
After returning to the militia, he immediately issued an order to prepare for departure.
Following his order, the entire regiment of more than 2,000 people began to prepare.
The baggage battalion prepared various supplies such as food, ammunition, tents, etc., the two infantry battalions prepared to inspect equipment, the artillery battalion prepared to load artillery shells and artillery into trucks, and the medical brigade also prepared tents, medical equipment, etc. Throughout the morning, Xiao Cao
The village was in a state of bustle.
After lunch, the entire militia group of more than 2,500 people began to leave Xiaocao Village toward Kenanpo. The entire group stretched out for several miles, winding along the road like a long snake.
go ahead.
At the head of the team were two Willys jeeps, with four soldiers sitting in each vehicle. They were vigilantly detecting movements on both sides of the road as they advanced.
Next came the first battalion led by Wu Chengfeng, with the artillery battalion, medical brigade and supply battalion in the middle. The second battalion led by Xiao Zhankui came to the rear. In the evening, they camped at the foot of a hillside.
At this time, Gao Hongming did not notice that there was a place called Yangcun less than two kilometers away from them.
