Looking at the report in his hand and the devastation on the ground around him, Gao Hongming's original joy of shooting down the Japanese plane disappeared.
Only six of the twelve Tornado self-propelled anti-aircraft guns in the air defense company are left, and only four of the six Dongfeng self-propelled anti-aircraft guns are left. It can be said that the air defense company has been disabled in this battle, and the armored battalion also suffered losses. Two No. 4 vehicles
The tank and a Lynx reconnaissance tank were destroyed, and the number of casualties was as many as seventy or eighty.
"Hurry up... hurry up..."
On the rugged mountain road, Wu Chengfeng kept urging the driver.
At this moment, his face was as dark as water. Although he did not know the situation in Yelang Valley at this moment, although he could clearly see the Japanese planes that just flew over his head. Just looking at the size of the Japanese plane formation, he knew the losses in Yelang Valley.
Definitely not too small.
However, the loss was secondary, but what made him most anxious was that Gao Hongming was also there, and he was about to die.
Who doesn't know now that the entire militia group can do without anyone, except Gao Hongming.
Gao Hongming was not only the founder of the Liantai Militia, but also the backbone of the entire militia of 7,000 to 8,000 people.
Don't look at the current rapid expansion of the militia like a snowball. In just a few months, it has grown from scratch into a huge force with seven to eight thousand people and various advanced weapons. But if Gao Hongming has any shortcomings, the entire militia will immediately
They will instantly fall apart like snowflakes in the sun.
The reason is very simple, because no one except Gao Hongming can support the huge expenses of the militia, not to mention that all the military officers above the company of the militia were promoted by him single-handedly. Who except Gao Hongming can convince them?
Thinking of the terrible consequences that would happen if Gao Hongming had an accident, Wu Chengfeng felt that the sky was about to collapse. But at this moment, he could do nothing but urge the driver to speed up.
Under Wu Chengfeng's urging, the Willys Jeep sped along the rugged mountain road at a speed of nearly 60 yards. Wu Chengfeng almost jumped out of the car several times, but when he thought about what happened to Gao Hongming, he would rather
I don’t want to see the worst ending even if I fall off the cliff on the roadside and die.
"Squeak..."
When the Willys Jeep rushed into the Wild Wolf Valley, he saw burning vehicles everywhere, soldiers running around to save people, and wounded soldiers who kept wailing. Wu Chengfeng jumped out of the car and felt his heart sinking to the bottom.
, his legs went weak, and he almost collapsed on the ground, and his tears fell down uncontrollably.
"Tuan Zuo... Tuan Zuo..." Wu Chengfeng, who was crying, couldn't help shouting loudly.
"Brother Wu, what are you calling? The young master is resting."
A naive and familiar voice sounded next to him. When Wu Chengfeng turned his head, he saw a bear-like figure standing aside and looking at him with an unkind expression. It wasn't Dabao, but who was it?
"Dabao... Dabao... where is the group?" Wu Chengfeng grabbed Dabao's hand as if he saw a life-saving straw and asked eagerly.
"Here... the young master is resting over there." Dabao pointed to the side, and he saw a figure sitting under a tree stump that had been broken off by a bomb, thinking silently.
Seeing this familiar figure, Wu Chengfeng couldn't help but rushed over. The tears he had been holding back for a long time fell instantly: "Master... Master... are you... okay? This is great!"
Although Gao Hongming was in a bad mood at this time, seeing Wu Chengfeng showing his true feelings, a warm current surged in his heart.
He laughed and scolded: "Old Wu, what are you doing? Didn't I tell you earlier? You are no longer the nursing home of our Gao family, but the battalion commander of the militia. Why do you still call me young master?"
"But Dabao is also the commander of the guard camp. How can he call you master?" Wu Chengfeng secretly cursed in his heart, but he also knew that Dabao was picked up by Gao Hongming's father, Mr. Gao, from a ruined temple and had been with Gao Hongming since he was a child.
grow up.
Such people who have been with the young master since childhood were called companions or study boys in ancient times. Even their surnames follow the master's surname. They are absolute confidants. Of course, they are not comparable to someone like me who joined the Gao family halfway.
Gao Hongming was able to remember his old friendship and promoted himself to the militia as a battalion commander.
It should be noted here that until the Republic of China, many landlords still maintained the customs of feudal society.
For people like Dabao who have lived with their family since childhood, the head of the family not only has to provide food and shelter, but also has to help them find a doctor when they are sick. He also has to help them start a family and even buy a house. It can be said that you have to take care of him for the rest of his life.
This kind of treatment is much better than some modern companies that claim that 996 is a blessing.
Of course, the owner of the family has paid so much and it is not for nothing. If people treat you like this, as a servant, you must also have the consciousness to work hard for others.
Not only must you ensure absolute loyalty to the family leader, but you will also have to be blamed for many things that the family leader is inconvenient to do. You must also take bullets for the family leader at critical moments.
In short, in one sentence, I think about what the master of the family thinks and worry about what the master of the family is anxious about.
Seeing Wu Chengfeng's eyes were red, Gao Hongming stretched out his hand to invite him to sit down and handed him a cigarette.
Wu Chengfeng quickly took it with both hands, lit it and sat down opposite Gao Hongming.
Halfway through a cigarette, Gao Hongming exhaled a long puff of smoke and then said: "You have also seen the situation in Wild Wolf Valley. The little devils have just caused a disaster here. Most of the air defense company has been lost, although the armored battalion has not suffered much damage.
It’s big, but it also lost nearly a hundred people, what do you think about this?”
When Wu Chengfeng heard this, he knew that Gao Hongming couldn't bear this tone, and immediately stood up, "Teacher, tell me, how are you going to teach those little devils? I promise, we will hit wherever you point us to?"
"This is not urgent."
Gao Hongming waved his hand and motioned for him to sit down again.
Then he said: "The most urgent thing now is that I want to understand one thing. Did those planes of the little devil just come to the Wild Wolf Valley or to me? If it was the latter, how did the little devil know that I was coming?
From Wild Wolf Valley?”
"hiss……"
Wu Chengfeng, who was originally preparing to fight with the little devil, suddenly took a breath of cold air.
Yes, not many people should know that Gao Hongming came to Yelang Valley. How could it be such a coincidence that a Japanese plane appeared here not long after he arrived in Yelang Valley? If those planes were coming for him, this matter
It's a big deal. Maybe there will be a big earthquake in the entire militia.
"Danzao...are you saying that someone leaked your whereabouts today to the Japanese?"
"Isn't this difficult to say?"
Gao Hongming shook his head.
"Except for Li Chang'an and you battalion commanders, only a few people in my family know that I came to Yelang Valley today, so I'm not sure whether this is the case or not. All this will have to wait until after the investigation.
But no matter what, the Japanese will have to pay the price for what happened today!"
