I’m The King Chapter 1148: :Continue to come (thirty-eight)


Cui Chengxiu met Dong Zhuang outside the big tent. This is a natural fighter. Even if he loses a hundred times, he will still be as confident as when he first stepped on the battlefield, and he feels that he can still defeat the opponent. This kind of innate traits, doomed Dong Zhuang to be the peak of his life when he became a teacher, it is difficult to go further, he can be a general, but not a handsome man. But every handsome man will like such a subordinate.

Because he has no fear.

But it is not a good thing for his subordinates. Dong Zhuang's third division always suffers the most casualties. If it were not for Dong Zhuang's special characteristics, the third division would have been able to fight this time Minimize casualties as much as possible.

Dong Zhuang walked in a hurry, and soon, his tall and straight figure was like a tall pine tree. When he saw Cui Chengxiu, he just nodded at him and passed by. Cui Chengxiu knew that Dong Zhuang had once asked the army The commander submitted a combat report to break out of the encirclement, or he thought that this was the commander who summoned him because he wanted to use his battle plan.

Cui Chengxiu turned his head and left in a hurry. He couldn't bear to think about Dong Zhuang's disappointment, or despair. For a person like Dong Zhuang, surrender is such an unbearable thing.

Kan Kan walked less than a hundred steps, and suddenly there was a roar in his ear, grief, indignation, desolation, despair, all kinds of emotions were mixed in it, it was Dong Zhuang, Cui Chengxiu paused a little.

It takes less than half an hour to ride a horse from the Chinese army to Caijiaji, where the third division is stationed, but Cui Chengxiu has walked for nearly an hour and a half, because now besides him he has another horse In addition, his guards all have to rely on a pair of legs, and their horses have become food for the soldiers.

Cui Chengxiu had to bring more soldiers to ensure his own safety. Although the places where he walked were under the control of his own army, it was not that there were no enemies. It doesn't prevent them from doing some small actions, such as sending some small groups of special operations troops to intersperse in each other's control areas, waiting for opportunities to make some actions. Cui Chengxiu himself did this, and if he was lucky, he might be able to change the current crisis in one fell swoop.

Of course this is just an extravagant wish, but is it also a hope? Cui Chengxiu naturally doesn’t want to become the prey of the opponent’s special forces. The two sides are still in a state of combat in theory. It would be even more embarrassing to be captured.

"Teacher, here we are, Caijiaji is ahead." A guard pointed to the front and said loudly.

Cui Chengxiu narrowed his eyes, the sun that was about to set was shining from the direction of Caijiaji, a flagpole was erected high in front of the barracks, the Yellow Dragon Banner of the Han Dynasty was fluttering in the wind, the sun was shining from behind, and Chang Chang The long shadow is cast on the spacious land ahead.

The sentinel is holding a bugle and is blowing the horn passionately. Looking from Cui Chengxiu, the bugleman seems to be bathed in a golden light at this moment, and is like a solidified sculpture.

With the sound of bugles, soldiers rushed out of the barracks one by one, and stood in formation under the flagpole. Behind the running soldiers were some lightly wounded soldiers. They supported each other and walked out of the barracks. They came out and did not stand in the queue, but leaned against each other, leaning against the fence of the camp.

The queue was soon completed, and Cui Chengxiu saw two familiar figures, one was He Dong from the third division and the first regiment, and the other was Song Tao from the third division. Mao Afu from the second regiment was seriously injured in this battle , I'm afraid I can't get up until now.

"Teacher, are they going to practice?" The guard around him asked in surprise. Because of the lack of food, the routine training of the first division has been canceled long ago, because training will consume energy and eventually consume It is food, but now, they have no food.

"What kind of generals lead what kind of soldiers!" Cui Chengxiu smiled slightly, "The soldiers of the third division all have the smell of Dong Zhuang from top to bottom."

The broken horse moved slowly, Cui Chengxiu did not want to interrupt the routine drill of the third division.

Except for the guarded soldiers, the soldiers participating in the drill did not wear armor or hold weapons. It should be to save energy, and what they did was just some ordinary formation training. Cui Chengxiu felt his heart move, and nodded secretly , Dong Zhuang still has a good way of leading troops, at least he didn't think about it, this kind of training didn't consume much physical strength, but it greatly brought the soldiers together and made them realize that they were still in a group .Especially in this special period, morale can be maintained to a considerable extent.

The third division is the most severely injured unit this time, but now it seems that the weather is better than my first division. I must learn this, Cui Chengxiu said in my heart.

The sentinel of the third division saw this friendly army approaching, and an officer quickly came up to meet him. He was greatly surprised when he saw the person.

"Teacher Cui!" He snapped to attention in front of Cui Chengxiu and gave a military salute.

Cui Chengxiu sat on the horse and returned a gift, "Do you know me?"

"Mr. Cui, I also graduated from Jishicheng Military University. I am two grades shorter than Mr. Cui. When I entered the school, it happened to be when Mr. Cui graduated. Mr. Cui is a legend in our military university." Officer Excited.

"It turns out to be my junior!" Cui Chengxiu laughed. Eighty percent of them are also filled by graduates of this school, but it is a pity that the students who were with him at the beginning and the next two classes have lost too much in previous battles. In every battle, the grassroots officers always suffer the most casualties. Although the officer is also from Jishicheng Military University, Cui Chengxiu doesn’t even recognize him.

"What position do you hold in the Third Division now?" Cui Chengxiu asked.

"Now I am the battalion commander of the third battalion of the second regiment of the third division!" said the officer.

"That's right!" Cui Chengxiu nodded, she was two years younger than herself, and if she followed the steps, she would almost be the battalion commander, like Song Tao and Mao Afu of the third division were all students who were one class shorter than her, and now they are all regiment leaders. Among the three regiment leaders of the three divisions, the first regiment, He Dong, came up step by step from the lowest level.

"Do you train like this every day?" Cui Chengxiu raised her chin and asked.

"Yes, but two practice sessions per day have been changed to one practice session, and the morning session has been canceled. Teacher Dong asked everyone to sleep a little longer in the morning, so that they can sleep well enough for lunch. After some basic training in the evening, we will have dinner .”

"One meal a day!"

"Yes, one meal a day! Sleep after eating!" The officer replied, "If you sleep a little longer in the morning, you won't feel hungry at all."

Cui Chengxiu laughed, "I used to be unable to sleep even if I wanted to, but now I can sleep as long as I want. This is really a happy thing."

The officer also laughed, "At first everyone was very happy, but this man is really cheap. When we couldn't sleep before, everyone wanted to sleep for a while, but now we can be heartless. I can sleep as long as I want, but no one can sleep. But in order to save energy, but have to stay in bed, the feeling is more painful than waking up early every morning for training."

Cui Chengxiu laughed loudly, "Why, it's because we are soldiers. By the way, how many people are there in the Third Division? I asked the total number."

Hearing this topic, the officer fell silent all of a sudden, and the smile on his face froze just now, "The Third Division was beaten so badly this time, and now counting the lightly and seriously wounded, there are still 3,800 soldiers left." There are more than 3,000 people who can still fight, and this is counting the lightly wounded."

"Didn't you say that there are more than 4,200 people?" Cui Chengxiu's face changed slightly.

"In the past half a month, many wounded have not survived." The officer whispered, "Even now, there are still seriously wounded leaving us every day. Almost every day, we hold a funeral here to see off those who have left. Go comrades.”

Cui Chengxiu took a deep breath, "I think the morale of the soldiers is not bad."

"That's right, everyone is holding their breath now, Master Cui, when will we counterattack? We all want revenge. People from our third division can't die in vain." The officer clenched his fists, Waving in the air, "We will get it back ten times."

The corners of Cui Chengxiu's mouth grinned, I don't know whether to cry or laugh.

"Where did Master Cui come from? Why are you free to come to our third division today?" The officer asked: "Our Master Dong went to the military headquarters today."

"I'm from the military department!" Cui Chengxiu nodded at him, the school field was close in front of him, and He Dong and Song Tao who were standing in front of the queue both came up to him.

Cui Chengxiu got off his horse, and said to the two commanders who were saluting: "Go, let's talk inside."

He Dong and Song Tao looked at each other with some doubts. Strictly speaking, Cui Chengxiu is not their chief. What does it mean to suddenly arrive at the Third Division's resident at this time?

"How is Mao Afu?" Cui Chengxiu asked while walking inward.

"Fortunately, I finally survived. Although I can't move much now, it will be no problem to return to the battlefield after raising it for a year and a half." Song Tao said, who was also from Jishicheng Military University. Song Tao has always respected this senior.

"Well, let's talk with Mao Afu." Cui Chengxiu nodded.

He Dong and Song Tao looked at each other again. Cui Chengxiu didn't come here for nothing but with a purpose. Went to the military headquarters. There was a trace of anxiety in the eyes of the two.

"Teacher Cui, our teacher..." He Dong finally couldn't help asking.

"Let's talk later!" Cui Chengxiu waved his hand and said.

With uneasiness, the two led Cui Chengxiu to the place where Mao Afu was recuperating. (To be continued)
