Devil's Army

We arrived at a stall selling rice crusts and everyone sat down to eat the rice crusts.

Leng Feng rarely eats snacks, so he lit a cigarette and watched them eat. Yuan Wanting and He Shiqi both picked up a piece of rice crust and ate it slowly, but Ah Hua used both hands to stuff the rice crust into his mouth desperately.

"Eat slowly, no one is going to snatch the food from you." He Shiqi said to Ahua.

"It's the dean who treated us, not you. You can't say that to me." Ahua responded incoherently.

"Eat slowly. It's enough. It's enough." Yuan Wanting also said to her.

After eating the rice crust, everyone went to a small stall selling candied haws. Yuan Wanting and her friends each had a string of candied haws, but Ah Hua took two strings.

After passing the candied haws stall, everyone arrived in front of a wonton stall. Ah Hua suggested that everyone have a bowl of wontons, but He Shiqi and another nurse shook their heads and refused. He Shiqi asked Ah Hua:

"Didn't you have enough to eat tonight?"

Ah Hua shook his head and said, "I didn't eat enough at night."

Another nurse said to her: "You are just greedy, not hungry."

So everyone left the wonton stall together, but Ah Hua kept looking back at the wonton stall.

So Yuan Wanting suggested: "We can have one wonton for each of us, and one wonton for Ah Hua. We can eat it before leaving."

Without waiting for He Shiqi and the others to agree, Ah Hua immediately said, "Okay, thank you, Dean." He ran over and sat in front of the wonton stall.

He Shiqi and another nurse shook their heads and sat over.

When the wontons were served, He Shiqi and another nurse shared a bowl of wontons, Yuan Wanting and Leng Feng shared a bowl, and Ahua ate one bowl by himself.

He Shiqi said to Ah Hua who was eating voraciously, "Who would dare to marry you if you eat so much?"

"I won't marry anyone else. I'll just be with you."

"My allowance is not enough for you to eat." He Shiqi shook her head and waved her hands.

"Then I will stick with Dean Yuan every day." Ahua said shamelessly.

After eating the wontons, Ahua finally burped and touched his stomach with satisfaction.

Everyone walked to the square park together. He Shiqi said to Yuan Wanting and the others with great vigilance:

"Commander Leng, Xiaoting, we have something to do, we'll leave first." After saying that, she ignored Yuan Wanting's glare at her, pulled Ahua and another nurse and ran away.

There are no clouds tonight, the stars are bright, and the moon is round. The crisis in Tieling County during the day did not cast a shadow on everyone. Everyone was walking in groups of three or four in the park or sitting under the trees chatting.

Leng Feng and Yuan Wanting also walked side by side on the gravel path, and the space between them was no longer wide enough to accommodate two or three people. Now, when they walked side by side, there was only enough space for a fist.

"I'm going to go to the front line of Xiaoliang River tomorrow and take a look at the fortifications." Leng Feng said.

"Well, I'm going to check out the hospital tomorrow as well. We're also planning on moving in."

"Then let's go back to the tribe together after lunch?"

"Yeah." After being in the tribe for so long, Yuan Wanting has never returned to the tribe with Leng Feng side by side.

At this time, Director Li came over from the front with a team of police officers on patrol. When Director Li saw Leng Feng and the others, he immediately saluted and said, "Hello, Commander Leng and Dean Yuan."

After Leng Feng and Yuan Wanting returned the greetings to Director Li and his team, Director Li led the team of police officers to continue patrolling.

Unconsciously, the two of them walked back to the entrance of the military camp. Leng Feng said goodbye to Yuan Wanting reluctantly.

The next morning, Leng Feng and the guards arrived at the first line of fortification in front of Tieling County.

Meilang, the first regiment commander and the first deputy commander all came out to greet Leng Feng.

"The main commanders of your troops cannot all stay here. Meilang and the first regiment commander, you guys go back to the barracks, and the first regiment commander's deputy commander will just stay here to watch." Leng Feng said to them.

"Something happened in the army right away. We came over here to take a look and keep an eye on it." Meilang said to Leng Feng.

"The military has announced the punishments they have received. Do they have any objections?"

"no"

"This is the first time since our unit was founded that the entire army has issued a notice criticizing us. They must be embarrassed. I'm sure they won't have any objections, right?"

"It's better to lose face than to lose one's life. Fortunately, the Japanese did not cause too much damage to the people of Tieling County this time. Otherwise, they would not be able to compensate for the loss even if they lost their lives, let alone lose face." Meilang responded immediately.

"Let them reflect on their mistakes and reinstate them. The army is in need of a commander."

Meilang nodded without saying anything. He often attacked the Japanese troops, but was attacked by them. This was really a huge loss of face.

"Let's go and take a look at the fortification ahead."

The soldiers in the fortifications became more alert and looked around from time to time.

Leng Feng also suggested going to the front of Xiaoliang River to take a look.

At this time, Meilang and the head of the regiment disagreed. They said: The Japanese often fire artillery, which is too dangerous.

"I will always feel uneasy if I don't go to the frontier to take a look."

"Don't worry, Commander. If the Japanese pass under our noses again this time, I will come to you with my head." Meilang replied.

"I don't want your head, I want the devil's head."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Japanese on the other side of Liangzi River started firing artillery again.

"There are also 100mm howitzers. You must prepare your fortifications to protect yourself from the artillery fire." Leng Feng said to Meilang and the others as he listened to the sound of the artillery shells exploding.

At this time, a signalman from the regiment came over to report to Leng Feng: "Report to the soldier, someone from the tribe is looking for you."

"Who's looking for me?" Leng Feng asked.

"They didn't say anything, they just said that if you have nothing to do, please go back to the tribe."

Leng Feng nodded and returned to the tribe with the guards.
