On the two gunboats going down the river, more than 200 remnant soldiers of the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army had fallen asleep. There was a lot of snoring on the deck, but the more than 100 puppet troops of the Jiujiang Garrison Brigade could not sleep no matter what.
Standing on the guardrail on the deck and looking towards Jiujiang, many people even shed tears.
Gou Ligui was sitting alone in the stern of the boat with a cigarette in his mouth, feeling a little confused.
Apart from marching, I was also fighting, so I didn't think much about it.
But now, they have broken through, and their personal future and destiny, as well as the future of more than a hundred brothers under his command, have become a dilemma before Gou Ligui.
Going to Damei Mountain with Xu Rui?
Or should we disembark halfway and join the National Army?
The Nationalist Army is not far away. Liao Lei's 21st Army Group is stationed in the Dabie Mountains.
Logically speaking, the National Army is the regular army, and defecting to the National Army is the right path. However, Xu Rui was very kind to them, and he couldn't open his mouth.
From a personal perspective, Gou Ligui didn't mind following Xu Rui to Damei Mountain.
Gou Ligui has no good impression of Xu Rui and has no prejudice against him, so as long as he can fight against the Japanese and fight the Japanese, it doesn't make any difference whether he defectes or defectes. However, Gou Ligui admires Xu Rui's ability to the point of admiration, and he also admires the Langya troops greatly, so
He would rather go to Damei Mountain with Xu Rui.
However, the more than 100 brothers under him may not be willing to follow him.
Of course, in addition to being confused, Gou Ligui also felt a little sad inside.
What makes Gou Ligui feel sad is that after leaving his hometown today, he doesn't know if he will have a chance to come back in this life. Also, his father is old and he didn't have time to say goodbye to him before leaving, let alone what he will do in this life.
Gou Ligui couldn't help crying when he thought about whether he could see him again in this life.
Gou Ligui was feeling sad when suddenly there was the sound of gentle footsteps behind him.
Gou Ligui wiped away the tears from the corner of his eyes, and when he looked back, he found it was Xu Rui.
"Sir Xu?" Gou Ligui said as he stood up and saluted Xu Rui.
Xu Rui pressed Gou Ligui's shoulders, then sat down, looking at the vast river ahead and said: "From now on, you don't need to call me sir, let alone salute, when you see me, we don't want to do this, just call me Lao Xu, or
You can just call my supervisor."
"Squad leader?" Gou Ligui was surprised, "Aren't you the group leader?"
"I masturbated early." Xu Rui said cheerfully, "My current official position is the squad leader of the cooking class of Dameishan Military Division Headquarters. You can just call me squad leader from now on."
Gou Ligui grinned and said nothing.
Xu Rui said leisurely: "Do you miss your dad?"
Gou Ligui hummed and said with a tearful voice, "I don't know if I will ever see him again in this life."
"There will be a chance." Xu Rui took out the cigarette case from his trouser pocket, first handed a cigarette to Gou Ligui, then borrowed Gou Ligui's cigarette butt to light a fire for himself, took a beautiful puff and said quietly, "And this
One day will not be too long, it can be as little as three years, as many as five years, and we will definitely be able to fight back to Jiujiang."
Regarding the Anti-Japanese War, Xu Rui was more confident than anyone in this era.
Because Xu Rui knows that China will definitely win the final victory. In this time and space, with Xu Rui’s butterfly wings, the time point for the victory of the Anti-Japanese War will only be advanced and not delayed. Xu Rui firmly believes in this!
Gou Ligui nodded blankly, not sure if he believed it or if he didn't hear it at all.
Xu Rui went straight to the topic and asked: "Brother, what are your plans for the future?"
"Plan?" Gou Ligui said blankly, "I don't have any plan. Anyway, I just want to fight the Japanese."
Xu Rui asked more directly: "Then are you going to do it yourself, or join the National Army? Or simply follow me to Damei Mountain? But I have to make it clear to you first. There is no brigade to go to Damei Mountain.
If the commander lets you do it, even the regiment commander or battalion commander may not get your turn, so at most I will let you be the company commander."
Gou Ligui shook his head and said, "As long as you can fight the Japanese, it doesn't matter what your position is."
Xu Rui said: "Then you mean to decide to go to Damei Mountain with me?"
"Yes." Gou Ligui nodded, "Captain Xu, you are a man of real ability. I am willing to follow you, but those brothers under me may not be willing to leave their hometowns."
"That's no problem." Xu Rui waved his hand and said, "When they get to the safe zone, I can give them a chance to choose. Those who are willing to follow me will follow me to Dameishan. Those who are unwilling to follow me will be given ten yuan each.
They can pay their way to Dayang as they wish, Lao Gou, what do you think?"
Gou Ligui nodded and said, "It's good to be so daring."
"Then it's settled." Xu Rui patted Gou Ligui on the shoulder, then stood up and went to look for Xue Laoyao.
To be honest, Xu Rui doesn't think much of Gou Ligui's more than 100 puppet troops, so Gou Ligui is considered a good seedling. He might have a chance to join Langya if he is trained. However, Xu Rui attaches great importance to Xue Laoyao's more than 200 Sichuan troops.
, not only because these two hundred-odd Sichuan troops are elite veterans who have experienced hundreds of battles, but also because of their status as Sichuan troops.
During the entire eight years of the War of Resistance, the Sichuan troops and their young men who left Sichuan exceeded three million!
A considerable number of these three million people are scattered on the battlefield behind enemy lines. Xu Rui hopes to use Xue Laoyao, the two hundred or so veterans of the Sichuan Army, as an example to attract the vast number of Sichuan troops scattered on the battlefield behind enemy lines to defect. In this way,
The Dameishan base area has a huge source of veterans.
When Xu Rui found Young Master Xue on the back deck, Young Master Xue had already woken up and was energetically making bets with Zuanshan Leopard, Han Feng and Siberian Tiger. The bet was on somersaults.
There were many Sichuan Army veterans watching the fun.
"Brother Ge, I'm really not bragging." Mr. Xue smoothed his sleeves and said confidently, "When it comes to shooting, I can't even come close to you, but when it comes to somersaults, hehe, you three
Even if you work together, you are no match for me. If you three don’t believe it, just leave it alone, what do you think?”
Han Feng just smiled and had little interest in gambling.
Although the Siberian tiger is extremely powerful, it is not good at somersaults and does not want to join in the fun.
Only Zhuanshan Leopard did not believe in evil, and shouted: "It's a competition, why are we afraid of you?"
Youngest Xue glanced greedily at the Mauser 98 sniper rifle in Zuanshan Bao's hand and said, "Brother Baozi, if you lose, this Mauser sniper rifle will be mine."
"That won't work." Zhuan Shanbao immediately put the Mauser 98 sniper rifle into his arms and said, "This is my lifeblood. I can bet on anything except this gun."
Youngest Xue smiled and said, "Does your wife also gamble?"
"Bet, as long as you win, my wife will be yours." Zhuanshan Leopard laughed strangely, but soon changed the subject and said, "But let me declare in advance that my wife is still in my old mother-in-law's belly."
The Sichuan troops watching all around burst into laughter, while Xue Laoya snorted.
Youngest Xue said: "Brother Leopard, what other valuable things can you come up with?"
Zhuanshan Bao said: "I'll bet one of the little devil's swords. As long as you can do sixty backflips in one minute like you said, I will give you a sword."
"Zuo Guandao." Xue Laoyao said, "Brother Leopard, this is what you said."
"That's what I said." Zhuan Shanbao said, "It's the official sword, and it's guaranteed to be genuine."
For elites like Zuanshanbao, the official sword was really nothing. Even the general sword was often obtained, but Wang Husheng used it as a gift to the head of the military department.
"Look." Young Xue deliberately wanted to show off his hands in front of the wolf fangs. He tucked the hem of his military uniform into the waistband of his trousers, then tightened the belt tightly, then kicked one of his long legs back, and then tried his best to move forward.
With the first kick, his right leg was kicked straight up to the top of his head, and then his left leg left the ground. The next moment, Young Master Xue was hanging upside down in the air, but his legs were spread out in a straight line. Just this flexibility
Sex, I'm afraid not many people can match it.
The next moment, Xue's right foot landed on the ground and completed a backflip.
His right foot landed on the ground, but Xue's left foot did not land on the ground. Instead, he accelerated and kicked forward from the left side of his body to the top of his head. Then his right foot followed and left the ground. Under the action of inertia, the whole person flipped upside down into the air.
, then the left foot landed again, and the right foot accelerated and kicked forward from the right side of the body.
In this way, he flipped left and right, and in the blink of an eye, he had already done several somersaults.
The Sichuan Army veterans who were watching around cheered loudly, and Han Feng and the Siberian Tiger also clapped and cheered.
Xu Rui walked to the edge of the crowd, folded his arms, and watched leisurely. A layman watched the excitement, and an expert watched the door. Xu Rui could tell at a glance that Xue Lao Yao had very good waist and abdominal strength. He must have practiced it when he was a child! But Professor
The person who mastered Xue's skills only gave him a basic foundation, but did not teach him further martial arts.
Zhuanshan Leopard held the stopwatch and shouted to stop after sixty seconds.
The Sichuan Army veterans watching around had been counting just now, and finally stopped at seventy!
In sixty seconds, Young Master Xue did seventy backflips, which is also very rare in Langya.
Xu Rui thought of trying to compete with Xue Lao Yao. At the moment when the mountain leopard shouted to stop, he suddenly flew up and kicked Xue Lao Yao in the lower back. At this time, Xue Lao Yao had just flipped upside down in the air.
There was no way to borrow any strength. Seeing that this kick was about to hit him hard, Xue Lao Yao twisted his waist with all his strength and turned around half a circle to avoid Xu Rui's thunderous kick.
Seeing Xue Lao Yao's move, Han Feng, the Siberian tiger and the mountain leopard were obviously stunned for a moment, boy, you can do it.
Xu Rui didn't face any further difficulties, and took advantage of the situation to draw back his legs and joked: "You have good waist and abdominal strength. When driving piles on girls, the frequency must be very high. No wonder Miss Chuanzhong likes you so much, and no wonder you have such a cocky cock."
Your nickname, hahaha, you really deserve this nickname."
The Sichuan Army veterans around him burst out laughing.
The youngest Xue didn't take it seriously, but laughed and winked at Xu Rui, because he could tell from Xu Rui's teasing that Xu Rui was also a member of the same group.
