Chapter 1715 Smedley (continue to ask for a monthly ticket)
When Xu Rui, Di Gua, and Leng Tiefeng walked back to Baotou, it was already the afternoon of the next day.
As a result, they happened to meet Wang Husheng and his party outside the city. Wang Husheng took Ma Fei, Batt and the other battalion commanders, as well as a group of cadres from the Baotou Anti-Japanese Democratic Government, and even several local reporters from Suiyuan. Xiang Yingxin, a female
The secret agents were also joining in the fun in the welcoming team with cameras in hand.
Seeing this scene, Xu Rui said: "Lao Wang, it's over. This is too grand. Why don't we just go to Peking, destroy Nanyuan Airport and grab a few planes? There is really no need to be so grand."
Welcome, if this spreads out, it won’t have a good impact, right? Others might think I’m overjoyed.”
Wang Husheng rolled his eyes when he heard this and said angrily: "I said, Lao Xu, can you get out of the way?"
"Blocking the way?" Xu Rui's face fell and he said, "What do you mean, you are not welcoming us?"
"Welcome? You are overthinking, I don't have the time." Wang Husheng said with a snort, "Quickly give up, I have to go to the airport to greet Miss Smedley. She will be in Baotou soon."
"Miss Smedley has arrived in Baotou?" Xu Rui's eyes lit up when he heard this.
Inviting Miss Smedley to Baotou is an important part of Xu Rui's entire counterattack plan.
At that moment, Xu Rui couldn't care less about arguing with Wang Husheng, and immediately followed Wang Husheng to the airport in a hurry.
Baotou's airport is located in the western suburbs of Baotou City. It is said to be an airport, but it is actually a direct runway. Moreover, cement has not even been poured, but the ground has been compacted. Beyond this, there is a row of low soil that has just been built.
The embryonic rooms are mostly used for accommodation and office use by airport ground staff and security forces.
The fourteen planes snatched back from Nanyuan Airport have been hidden.
These fourteen fighter jets are treasures. Of course they will not stay on the runway, waiting for the little devils to bomb. Of course, the little devils may not have the courage. The air battle that took place over Yu County has already scared the little devils. Xu Rui
I dare say that at least until the end of this year, the little devils will never dare to bomb Baotou.
When Xu Rui, Wang Husheng and others arrived, the entire airport was still empty.
Apparently, Miss Smedley's remaining transport plane had not yet arrived.
While there was still some time, Wang Husheng felt it was necessary to exchange his thoughts with Xu Rui.
Just now, the reason why he stabbed Xu Rui with words was not without reason, because he was extremely dissatisfied with Xu Rui's actions. Wang Husheng felt that as the leader of the group, Xu Rui should not take risks. If he knew that Xu Rui was going to Nanyuan
He would definitely stop someone trying to grab a fighter jet at the airport because it was too dangerous.
Even if it is successful now, it does not change the fact that doing so is dangerous.
At that moment, Wang Husheng waved his hand to exclude others, and then said to Xu Rui: "Old Xu, can you respect me from now on and stop making such decisions behind my back? I am a political commissar anyway, right?"
Xu Rui smiled and said: "Old Wang, are you worried that I will be shot down by the Japs?"
"Aren't you talking nonsense?" Wang Husheng said angrily, "Air combat is different from ground combat. You have all the skills, but if the performance of the aircraft is not good, you won't be able to show it. So, you took the Langya Brigade to Nanjing.
I won't stop you from seeking revenge from Tada Shun, because I know that with Wolf Fang here, you will at least be safe, but air combat is different."
"Actually, there is no difference." Xu Rui said with a smile, "Whether it's an air combat or a ground combat, I kill little Japanese like I'm killing a kid. It's not like you don't know that I'm a foreigner from Germany's Brandenburg Special Forces.
As a sparring partner, when I was at the Brandenburg training camp, there would be an aerial combat training every few days."
"That was when you were in Germany." Wang Husheng said, "But since you returned to China, how many times have you flown a plane in total?"
After a pause, Wang Husheng continued: "It is said that the fists cannot leave the hands and the music cannot leave the mouth. Everything needs to be done frequently and practiced regularly so that you can send and receive it as you please. You have only flown so many times since you returned to China. How can you possibly follow?
Those Japanese pilots who train every day? You are just kidding with your own life!"
Xu Rui could only admit defeat, raised his hands and said: "Old Wang, you won, I don't dare to do it anymore."
Wang Husheng sighed and said: "Although we retrieved fourteen fighter jets this time, we also sacrificed three members of the Langya team. Can the bodies of these three comrades be recovered?"
The members of the Wolf Fang are all treasures, and sacrificing one of them is a huge loss.
"We can't find them back." When talking about the three sacrificed members of the Wolf Fang team, Xu Rui also showed a look of sadness on his face. He shook his head and said, "After the fighter jet they drove crashed, the whole thing was burned down." He paused for a moment.
, Xu Rui said again, "Old Wang, the pension work for these three comrades must be done well."
Wang Husheng nodded and said, "I will make arrangements."
Xu Rui nodded and turned the topic to other work.
It’s not that Xu Rui is cold-blooded, and it’s not that Xu Rui doesn’t care about Langya’s life or death, but the war years are just so cruel.
In the war years, you simply don't have the extra time and energy to grieve and mourn for your dead comrades.
Because no one knows whether they will live to see the sun tomorrow, and no one knows whether a bullet will shoot through their head in the next battle? Therefore, instead of spending precious time and energy on these things, it is better to
Use this energy and time to do more effective work to ensure that more comrades can survive the next battle and that more people can live to see the sun tomorrow.
While the two were talking, the roar of an airplane engine suddenly sounded in the sky.
"It's coming, it's coming!" the sharp-eyed Digua immediately shouted, "Commander, political commissar, look, there is a plane at seven o'clock, it must be my sister and the others!"
This time, Liu Mei, Xiao Yanyue and others came on the same plane as Miss Smedley.
However, Jiangnan, who was about to give birth, and Guoer and the others did not come.
Xu Rui and Wang Husheng looked back and saw a transport plane emerging from the clouds at seven o'clock. At this time, Wang Husheng had already asked the guards of the Independent Regiment to light more than a dozen piles of smoke on both sides of the airport runway.
Under his guidance, the transport plane slowly descended and finally stopped steadily on the runway.
"Sister, sister, sister..." Digua was the first to rush forward.
Wang Husheng, Han Feng, Lei Xiang and Leng Tiefeng couldn't help but look excited, because their lovers were also on the transport plane. Only Zhuanshan Bao lagged behind with a depressed expression, because he had just received the news.
Xu Xiaoya did not randomly come to Baotou, but stayed in Yan'an to take care of Jiangnan who was about to give birth.
At this time, the door of the Douglas III transport plane opened, and the airport quickly pushed up the wooden gangway and set it up outside the door. A figure flashed, and a white woman wearing an off-white woolen cloak stepped out of the door.
Walking out of the house, needless to say, this must be the legendary Miss Smedley.
Immediately afterwards, Liu Mei, Erya, Xiao Yanyue and Qianye Hanako also filed out of the hatch.
Wang Husheng resisted the urge to hug Liu Mei into his arms, and went forward with Xu Rui to meet Smedley, but Di Gua didn't care about it at all, and directly called out "Sister" and hugged Liu Mei.
Tie Feng, Han Feng and Lei Xiang also rushed forward regardless and pulled their respective lovers into their arms.
It is said that every soldier has a raging army, and a den of generals is raging, and the commander will have the same soldier. The Langya Brigade has an enthusiastic and unrestrained commander like Xu Rui, and the team members will naturally follow the same example. Therefore, from Langya Brigade
In Ya's body, there is absolutely no restraint or reserve that Chinese people are accustomed to, and some are just enthusiastic or unrestrained.
Seeing this scene, not only Xiang Yingxin and several local Suiyuan reporters, but even Smedley, who had just got off the plane, subconsciously raised the camera and pressed the shutter continuously to record this touching scene on film.
After getting down, Xu Rui pushed Wang Husheng from behind covertly. Wang Husheng staggered and walked to Liu Mei.
Wang Husheng looks a little dull and reserved, but in fact he has very strong emotions deep inside.
Seeing the lover he had longed for so much in front of him, Wang Husheng could no longer control his emotions. He immediately hugged Liu Mei and kissed her hard.
The surrounding members of the Langya team and the officers and soldiers of the independent regiment shouted and applauded enthusiastically.
Smedley pressed the shutter and said excitedly to Xu Rui: "Captain Xu, I must admit that you gave me a big surprise, because in my impression, or in the impression of the entire West, you
Chinese people's emotions are restrained or reserved, and I have rarely seen such a passionate and unrestrained emotional release."
"That's because they know very well that today's meeting is probably the last one." Xu Rui said quietly in fluent English, "Maybe tomorrow, one of them will die in a certain battle, or the day after tomorrow
, one of them will never be able to see their loved one again, so they don’t want to miss this last happy reunion.”
Smedley put down the camera, and his expression became serious and thoughtful.
"Captain Xu, you are indeed a unique officer." Smedley took a deep look at Xu Rui and said, "I have seen many officers of the Kuomintang. Most of them are well-dressed, personable, and elegant in conversation.
, I have also met many officers of the New Fourth Army or the Eighth Route Army. Although they are plainly dressed, they are very enthusiastic and sincere."
After a pause, Smedley continued: "However, you are different from them. If you have to make a comparison, I think you seem more like our American military officers. Whether it is your way of thinking or your acting style
, are more like U.S. military officers than many U.S. military officers."
Xu Rui was silent, what could he say?
He could only say that a woman’s intuition is really terrible!
