There was a heavy rain in western Guangdong in early August. This heavy rain lasted for two consecutive days before it stopped. This also caused the bumpy roads to become very muddy. If you drive on such roads, your car will accidentally fall.
Falling into the mud.
Zhang Fakui was sitting in a jeep, feeling the constant vibrations of the vehicle. The shock absorbers of cars these days are not very good, and Zhang Fakui felt that his buttocks were going numb.
He touched his numb waist and stretched, and a sore and numb feeling came out of his waist. Seeing Zhang Fakui secretly frowning, Xia Wei, commander of the 12th Group Army on the side, couldn't help complaining when he saw this: "
Sir, if you had listened to me a few days ago, it would have been nice to fly to Guangzhou, it was fast and reliable, and you wouldn't have had to suffer this fate."
Zhang Fakui grinned: "Xu Cang, don't you understand me? The airplane thing is inherently different for me. The last time I took one, I had vomiting and diarrhea. I fainted for a whole day.
From then on, I made up my mind that I would never fly again in my life, but I feel wronged by you for accompanying me on this bumpy journey."
Xia Wei smiled slightly: "Sir, what did you say? As a subordinate, it is the duty to accompany the chief. Besides, it is not bad to take a car. At least I saw the several counties in the east, west and south of Guangdong under the governance of Chief Su.
Variety."
It's quite high here, Zhang Fakui couldn't help but sigh: "Yeah, I didn't expect that Maoming, Yangchun, and Enping counties have only been under the governance of Su Rui for only one year, and the situation there has changed a lot, especially those counties
Several newly opened factories have attracted many people to work, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they have benefited the township."
Seeing the look of relief on Zhang Fakui's face, Xia Wei also nodded and said: "Sir Su is not only good at fighting, but he also has a good way of governing the local area. Now that his 300 Army has been expanded into the Seventh Army, I am afraid that from now on
In the future, Guangdong will be dominated by him, so the relationship between him and us is a bit subtle."
"Eh..." Zhang Fakui waved his hand. "What's subtle? No matter how subtle it is, he is still a soldier of the party and the state. In the overall situation of the war of resistance, he still has to obey the orders of the central government. I believe that Zhongxin is still a person who understands the general situation, otherwise Delin and Jiansheng will not
He will protect him in this way, and he recovered Guangzhou, so there is nothing wrong with letting him govern it now."
Xia Wei was about to say something when he looked up and saw the familiar buildings outside the city. He couldn't help but said: "Sir, Guangzhou City has arrived."
To be honest, Zhang Fakui really has no complaints about Su Rui's attitude of refusing to leave after he captured Guangzhou. After all, Guangzhou was conquered by Su Rui. There is nothing wrong with letting other people manage the territory they conquered. Besides, Zhang Fakui
He didn't have the shame to make any demands to the other party. After all, he was the one who lost Guangzhou a year ago, and now that they called him, he didn't have the shame to ask for it back.
After Su Rui captured Guangzhou, he did not stop advancing. He continued to send the 398th Division towards Shantou and Meizhou to advance to Chaozhou. After a month of hard work, he finally cleared out the remaining Japanese troops entrenched in Guangzhou.
, it can be said that most of Guangdong has now fallen into Suri's hands.
In view of this, Zhang Fakui, who had been watching the excitement in Guilin, finally couldn't sit still and took the initiative to contact Su Rui, saying that he would go to Guangzhou to meet Su Rui in person. Su Rui welcomed this and sent a plane to Guilin
Borrow him. But Zhang Fakui was unwilling to make a plane. Instead, he took a guard and got into a car and rushed to Guangzhou. Su Rui had no choice but to notify the troops along the way to take more care. After three days, Zhang Fakui finally arrived.
Outside Guangzhou.
Suddenly, Xia Wei pointed out the window and said: "Sir, look quickly. There is a group of people there, it seems they are here to greet you."
Zhang Fakui also looked at it and said, "Hey, it's true. The leader must be Zhongxin. Please drive over and stop."
"squeak!"
The jeep stopped in front of the group of people on a flat ground outside the city. Soon someone came over and opened the door. Zhang Fakui tidied up his appearance before stepping out of the car.
When he got out of the car, he saw a young general about 27 or 28 years old walking up quickly. The three-pointed stars on his collar were shining with golden light. He knew that this must be the man he had never met before.
Su Ruisu, deputy commander-in-chief of the fourth theater area, was convinced.
The other party came up, gave a loud salute, and said loudly: "Sir Zhang, Deputy Commander of the Fourth Theater District Su Rui is late to greet you. I hope you will forgive me, sir!"
Zhang Fakui quickly returned the gift, took two steps forward, took Su Rui's hand and shook it vigorously, laughing and saying: "Brother Zhongxin, I have admired you for a long time, and today I can finally see you in person."
It’s okay.”
Seeing Zhang Fakui's cheerful look, Su Rui, who was secretly worried at first, secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that Commander Zhang is indeed, as history said, a cheerful, resolute and unconventional person. If he showed up as soon as he came,
It's really hard for me to deal with my deputy boss's arrogance.
After chatting with Su Rui for a few words, Zhang Fakui introduced Xia Wei to Su Rui: "Brother Zhongxin, this is Xia Wei and Xia Xucang, the commander of the 12th Group Army in our theater. You are both descendants of Bagui. Please stay close to each other in the future.
!”
"That's natural." Su Rui smiled, stretched out his hand towards Xia Wei and said, "Brother Xu Cang, I have admired your name for a long time. I am so lucky to meet Sansheng today!"
Su Rui was very casual, but Xia Wei didn't dare to take it too seriously. After all, Su Rui held the title of deputy commander of a theater on his head, and his military rank was one level higher than his lieutenant general. He had to respect both emotion and reason.
The other party quickly saluted before shaking hands with Su Rui and praised, "Sir Su has a great reputation, and his staff has long admired his name in Guilin. He was able to drive the Japanese 21st Army out of Guangzhou with one army. Such a feat."
Looking at China today, the chief officer is the first one!"
Facing Xia Wei's compliment, Su Rui just smiled faintly. He had heard too many such words these days, and his mentality had long since returned to calmness. Recovering Guangzhou is certainly worthy of excitement, but if you are always immersed in this joy
, is not what a general should do.
Su Rui said a few polite words and introduced Liang Zhi, Li Yifeng, Bai Jingran and others behind him to Zhang Fakui. Then Su Rui invited the two of them to get into his car and enter Guangzhou City together.
Zhang Fakui got on the car and saw along the way that although the streets had been cleaned up, many dilapidated buildings and some bullet holes that had not been added in time could still be seen on both sides of the streets. He couldn't help but sigh and asked: "Brother Zhongxin, look
Looking at the situation, you must have fought hard when Guangzhou was liberated, and the casualties among the people must have been considerable, right?"
Su Rui smiled bitterly and said: "To be honest, there are some civilian casualties, but they are not too big. What troubles us most is that after more than a year of raids by the Japanese, the lives of the people in the surrounding towns have become worse every year.
year, it affected the food supply in Guangzhou city, and we had to transfer food from Maoming area to support Guangzhou. But this is not a long-term solution. The most important thing now is to let the people return to their hometowns, speed up the restoration of agricultural production, and diversify
to ensure the supply of food next year."
"Food!" Zhang Fakui was silent for a moment. In China today, after several years of war, food has become increasingly scarce. Hubei, the original major production province, and Jiangsu and Zhejiang have also fallen into the hands of the Japanese.
This has also caused the price of grain to rise all the way, and it can be said that the supply exceeds demand. Su Rui raised this problem to him as soon as they met, probably because he was thinking about whether he could get a batch of grain from him.
After thinking for a while, Zhang Fakui said slowly: "Zhongxin, since you opened your mouth, I should have helped you anyway, but you also know that Guangxi is not a big grain-producing province, and grain is relatively low.
I'm nervous. I can't supply you with a large amount of rice right now. What do you think? I'll ask the logistics department to send you 500,000 catties of rice and 100,000 catties of corn as soon as possible."
"Oh, thank you so much, brother Xiang Hua. I can't thank you enough." Su Rui didn't expect that he just said this casually, and the other party promised to send him a batch of food. He was so grateful.
Mentioned. Although these 600,000 kilograms of grain are only a drop in the bucket for Su Rui's huge army of tens of thousands, Su Rui has to accept this favor anyway. After all, not many people are willing to help in times of need these days. Think again
A few days ago, when his family was preparing to launch an offensive in Guangzhou, they sent him a group of new soldiers. Su Rui felt more and more that he owed him a favor. It seemed that Chief Zhang was really a kind man.
Thinking of this, Su Rui wanted to make up for this kind man, but now he didn't know what he wanted so much, so he asked tentatively: "Brother Xiang Hua, you are not just here for inspection this time.
It’s simple, if you need help from my little brother, just ask.”
When Zhang Fakui heard this, he was unhappy. He frowned and said: "Brother Zhongxin, everyone is here to fight the Japanese. To help you is to help myself. Do you think I assigned you new recruits last time, but I will give them to you this time?"
Is the food being sold to you on purpose? If that’s what you think, then I won’t dare to deal with you again in the future.”
When Su Rui heard this, he couldn't help but be in awe. Listen, what kind of realm are they, what kind of realm are they, what kind of ambition are they, but I am judging the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain!
But before Su Rui could finish being moved, Zhang Fakui said again: "But brother, I heard that you are a famous local rich man. Brother Zhongxin, if you really feel sorry for me, give me the equipment of a German infantry division. Brother
I reluctantly accepted it.”
Su Rui's face turned dark immediately: "&...%￥#!"
"Hahaha……"
Seeing Su Rui's embarrassed look, Zhang Fakui couldn't help laughing... (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
