"How about you two brothers stay in my army from now on?"

The division commander seems to be asking two people for their opinions, but in fact he is giving an order. The division commander is a division commander after all. Even though he does not have soldiers in his hands now, he is still a division commander.

Along the way, the teacher also chatted with Zhao Ziming a lot, and naturally got to know a lot about Zhao Zhiguo.

"Thank you for your cultivation, sir, but I..."

"If you have something to say, just say it. In our army, don't be hesitant when speaking, and be more cheerful when doing things." The division commander spoke quickly and didn't like the mother-in-law.

"I want to lead the troops. I don't want to do anything like writing and drawing in the headquarters. Even if I am asked to be a platoon leader or even a squad leader."

"Of course there is no problem in leading the troops, but wouldn't it be an insult to your talents to be the platoon leader? After we go back, the army will definitely be reorganized. It is a time when there is a shortage of officers. I don't think there is any problem in you being the company commander."

"But let's start with the ugly words. You two brothers, I don't intend to put you in the same regiment!" the division commander added.

In fact, the division commander also had his own calculations. One of the most taboo things in the army is nepotism. Two people are brothers and both serve as company commanders in the same regiment. It is easy to pull the trigger.

Once a mutiny occurs, this situation is the most difficult to control.

The division commander also worked his way up from the platoon commander. He saw many things in the army, including several mutinies.

"Ah? Commander, I want to be with Zhao Zhiguo. You can just let me be an ordinary soldier."

"This is an army, not a vegetable market, let alone a place for bargaining. Of course, I won't arrange for you two brothers to be too far away."

The teacher was also grateful to Zhao Zhiguo for saving his life, and naturally he would not let the two brothers live apart.

"Thank you, sir!"

After Zhao Ziming thanked the commander, Gao Cang also came forward: "Sir, I also want to follow Zhao Zhiguo. I just want to be his deputy company commander."

"Nonsense, you can go wherever you want in the army? We can wait until we get back to talk about this matter."

They still don't know how many men are left in their division. During the retreat, the division's final strength was less than 1,500 men.

The way back went smoothly. Even though it was night, the road was crowded with soldiers, like a vegetable market, but in Zhao Zhiguo's eyes, it was more like a beggar gang meeting.

Many soldiers have heard the news that the Jinsui Army defeated a Japanese regiment. Of course, this also benefited from the propaganda of the Jinsui Army.

When the troops invaded the Japanese positions this morning, Yan Laoxi asked his reporters and writers to start writing articles and propaganda.

"What about annihilating more than 3,000 Japanese troops?" "What about killing the Japanese commander" and "what about seizing countless combat supplies."

The various achievements of the Jinsui Army in fighting the Japanese can be seen in the newspapers. This wave can be said to have earned the Second Theater a lot of attention and face.

After learning the news, the defeated troops swarmed onto the road that night and began to retreat to the Jinyang area.

Among a group of "beggars" with no fighting spirit, one troop stood out. Although their military uniforms were the same as others, their troops were neatly organized, and there was no sign of decadence on the soldiers' faces.

Wherever they passed, the defeated soldiers gave way to them one after another, attracting the gazes of the surrounding soldiers.

The Jinsui Army has set up a reception point at the head of the bridge. Soldiers crossing the bridge can receive food and arrange a place for them to stay temporarily.

Of course, if the Jinsui Army was defeated, their treatment would be better. After crossing the bridge, they would get on the bus directly. As for where they were going, Zhao Zhiguo did not ask.

Because Zhao Zhiguo and the others entered the city as a divisional security company, there was no major chaos in the troop organization. A second lieutenant from the Jinsui Army received them.

They immediately contacted a car and picked up the division commander. Obviously, a higher-level commander wanted to meet with the division commander. Naturally, minions like Zhao Zhiguo were not qualified to attend such a high-level meeting.

"Is it difficult along the way?" the second lieutenant of the Jinsui Army asked Gao Cang.

Because Zhao Zhiguo wore the uniform of a private from beginning to end, and Gao Cang's military rank was lieutenant, he naturally regarded Gao Cang as the commander of this unit.

"It's pretty good. Thanks to our company commander, otherwise we wouldn't have come back alive."

When the second lieutenant of the Jinsui Army heard Gao Cang's words, he was confused for a moment: "Isn't he your division commander?"

"No, our division commander was actually injured. Thanks to the presence of our company commander, our division commander was able to survive. It was our division commander who led us in a bloody battle with the Japs along the way."

Gao Cang had already determined in his mind that Zhao Zhiguo was his company commander.

"Sir, I'm sorry I didn't understand!"

While the second lieutenant of the Jinsui Army was still wondering, a voice from the direction of the bridge shouted Zhao Zhiguo's name.

"Zhao Zhiguo, Brother Zhao!"

Following the sound, Zhao Zhiguo saw Tao Xueyi on the jeep waving to him.

"Okay, trouble is coming, Gao Cang! The troops are handed over to you." Zhao Zhiguo said to Gao Cang.

The second lieutenant of the Jinsui Army also saw Tao Xueyi in the car. After many years in the army, he learned that when looking at people, look at their military rank first.

What attracted people's attention was not only the rank of major on Tao Xueyi's shoulders, but also the clothes on his body that were as tattered as those of the defeated soldiers, but these clothes belonged to the Central Army.

"Company commander, don't worry, I will take good care of the troops." Gao Cang saluted Zhao Zhiguo.

Seeing a lieutenant salute a second-class officer, the expression on the face of the second lieutenant of the Jinsui Army became more complicated.

After Zhao Zhiguo left, the second lieutenant was still stunned on the spot, a little at a loss.

"He is the company commander, but he... is clearly wearing the uniform of a private." The second lieutenant of the Jinsui Army could not express his shock in words.

"He is indeed a private, but he is also our company commander!" Norihou stepped forward, "Sir, please lead the way for us."

The second lieutenant of the Jinsui Army walked all the way and thought about it, but he didn't understand what was going on. His world view was completely subverted, causing him to be polite to many second-class soldiers he saw in the future, for fear that another one would pop up somewhere.

Here comes the company commander.

"Hello, Chief Tao!"

"We survived the catastrophe, let's stop being so polite now and get in the car!"

Tao Xueyi admired Zhao Zhiguo from the bottom of his heart. He also wanted to make friends with Zhao Zhiguo. The most important thing was that he wanted to know how Zhao Zhiguo destroyed the Japanese military headquarters overnight.

"Get in the car?"

Zhao Zhiguo didn't know where Tao Xueyi was going to take him. In fact, he didn't want to get too close to Tao Xueyi.

If it hadn't been during the war, Tao Xueyi would have nothing to say as a friend. But his use of wounded soldiers as bait on the battlefield became a thorn in Zhao Zhiguo's heart, and this thorn also became a barrier between the two people.

.

"What, you want to go back to the camp to eat those steamed buns?" Tao Xueyi said with a smile, "I booked a banquet in the nearby Jinyang City. We went through several ghost gates and finally survived. Tonight we
