Han Baihang traveled between the First Company and the Central Classroom every day, living a very comfortable life. Occasionally he would go to see Zhang Yingxue, and time passed in such a peaceful life.
In 1922, the situation of warlord separatism intensified, and the contradiction between the Zhili clique warlords and the Feng clique warlords became more and more profound.
In early April, due to the uneven distribution of the spoils of victory in the Zhi-Anhui War.
In addition, the Zhili clique was dissatisfied with the pro-Japanese and pro-Fengtian Liang Shiyi cabinet, and the dispute between the Zhili clique and the Fengcheng clique gradually expanded. Various minor frictions between the two sides continued.
When Han Baihang received the news in school, he immediately thought that such peaceful days would not be too far away. The first Zhizhi-Fengzhi war was coming soon.
Sure enough, when the war broke out between the two sides on April 28, the middle school students of Baoding Military Academy immediately became uneasy. Some of them were from ordinary backgrounds and were eager to show their talents in the war and obtain an official position. Some of them were indeed
The top students sent in by the warlords, like Han Baihang, also belong to the warlords' forces. Once the war breaks out, they are bound to be reused.
On the morning of April 29, Han Baihang returned to the military academy from Baoding City. He had been in Baoding City last night, guarding outside Zhang Yingxue's boudoir. Although he could not enter inside, this did not prevent him from chatting with Zhang Yingxue. They chatted for a long time.
Night, until Zhang Yingxue fell asleep. Han Baihang leaned against her door and sat quietly until dawn. He knew that since the war broke out, the day for him to return to the army was not far away.
The person who brought the order was Secretary-General Guo. He came in a hurry. It was obvious that the fighting was very fierce.
"Han Baihang, the former deputy commander of the 12th Regiment of the 3rd Division, was ordered to return to the army immediately and take up the post of commander of the 12th Regiment of the 3rd Division. He will be ready to attack." Secretary-General Guo met Han Baihang in private. At this time, he came to the military academy to transfer people.
There are many warlords, so he should be careful if he can.
"Brother Han, when you go back this time, I hope you will not disappoint the commander-in-chief. In his eyes, you are a sharp knife in his hand." Secretary-General Guo said to Han Baihang after announcing the order.
"Yes, Commander, please rest assured. He will do his best and work hard." Han Baihang was very grateful to Wu Peifu for training him. Although he is not a pedantic person, he must be a loyal person. Therefore, since it is Wu Peifu's need
When the time comes, he will do his best to help him.
"Okay, then you can set off immediately. I have made arrangements for you at the school. Just go back for the third appointment. I believe your order will be issued soon." Senior Guangming said.
"Yes, I'll go back right now." Han Baihang said to Secretary-General Guo, and immediately walked to the first company. He needed to call Zhang Zhixing and Gao Hongyi. With these two brothers by his side, he could do things
The success rate is also greatly improved.
"What, Zhixing left early?" When Han Baihang found Gao Hongyi, he was very surprised when he heard the news. He thought that Zhixing must have been a chess piece sent by some warlord.
"Brother, that guy Zhixing left you a letter." Gao Hongyi handed over a piece of paper folded in half. There was no envelope, and the handwriting inside could still be vaguely seen, so it was just a small label.
"Old Han, when you read this letter, you must have received an order to be transferred back to the army. My younger brother is indeed a member of the warlords, and my father's orders have to be fulfilled. I'm afraid of getting hurt.
As brothers, I leave this letter here. If we meet on the battlefield in the future, we will definitely retreat. If we have to fight, we should also ask you to be merciful. Fight with all your strength. I respect my knowledge and practice."
This letter was written very briefly, and the handwriting appeared to be very hasty, indicating that it had just been written.
"I didn't expect that our brothers are quite hidden. Then when we meet again in the future, we will do our best." Han Baihang folded the letter and put it in his pocket.
"Hong Yi, pack up. The war has come and we will set off immediately." Han Baihang also immediately packed up some of the things he often uses. He also specially put the sachet given by Zhang Yingxue into his waist. He also smelled delicious.
.
"Yes, brother." Gao Hongyi also knew the situation. He moved very quickly. It didn't take long for him to pack up his things.
"Brother, what position did the commander give you when you go back this time? Can we transfer all our brothers in Yongcheng?" Gao Hongyi and Han Baihang asked as they left Baoding Military Academy.
"Commander of the 12th Regiment of the Third Division, I don't know if you can transfer the brothers from Yongcheng, but there is really a big fight going on this time." Han Baihang said with hope. Talking on paper will not work.
Yes, he had learned a lot from his seniors in the military academy and had no theory at all. When the war broke out, he naturally had to put it into practice to see if the skills he had learned were really useful.
"Brother, I want to go to Baoding City." Gao Hongyi suddenly said to Han Baihang shortly after leaving school.
"Want to take a look?" Han Baihang asked calmly. He knew that Gao Hongyi wanted to take a look at Xiaohuan. During this period of time, he often ran over secretly and worked hard with Xiaohuan.
The relationship between the two is getting closer day by day. In the days to come, it is not impossible to be together.
"Hey, brother, things on this battlefield are changing rapidly, and there is no way to prevent any accidents. I don't know if I can come back from this war, so I want to take a look at her before going to the battlefield again." Gao Hongyi thought of his beloved, his face
A smile filled with happiness, but there was a little bitterness in the corners of his eyes.
"Don't worry, we will definitely come back, and we will definitely win," Han Baihang said with great certainty. However, he still followed Gao Hongyi's idea and took the lead towards Baoding City. Since his brothers have said it, he is
There was no way he would disappoint his brother, and besides, he also wanted to see Zhang Yingxue from a distance. He had not told Zhang Yingxue about going to the battlefield yet.
In the Zhang family mansion, Han Baihang and Gao Hongyi sneaked into the yard of Zhang Yangxue's room with ease. Gao Hongyi walked to the door and knocked gently.
"Who is here? Xiaohuan, go and see who it is." Zhang Yingxue's voice came out from inside the room.
"Who else could come into this courtyard and knock on your door without informing me in advance? It must be your little lover." Xiaohuan's voice came out, and then Zhang Yingxue's door was blocked.
She opened it.
"Ah, why are you here?" When Xiaohuan opened the door, what he saw was not Han Baihang but Gao Hongyi. She screamed in surprise and pushed him into the yard, only to find Han Baihang staying in the yard.
"Miss, come out quickly." Xiaohuan called Zhang Yingxue.
"Huh? Didn't you leave last night?" Zhang Yingxue looked at Han Baihang in surprise.
