Chapter 191 turn forward, turn forward? 5

The first bowl of wine was shared, and the rest was free time to move around. The people from the fifth company held the wine bowl and each faced the people from the sixth company. The two companies started to compete for wine one-on-one. This night was destined to be a friendly night, and it was also a night of hot drinking. At the end of the wine, more than ten men fell from each other, and the others were also shaking, almost drunk.

The 5th Company and the 6th Company basically ended up having a draw. When they parted, the people from the 6th Company were not convinced, so they agreed to have another fight between the 5th Company and the 6th Company tomorrow night, and then the winner would be decided. The soldiers were all bloody, so Li Qinglin and the others were willing to admit defeat, so they agreed to fight again tomorrow night.

The next day, it was Li Qinglin and the others who carried wine bottles and vegetables, and lined up in an orderly manner to the Sixth Company Corps. The second game of wine was still coming and going, and it was a matter of no chance to win or lose.

The 5th Company and the 6th Company drank in the military camp for two consecutive days, and many people were drunk. Wu Cheng thought that someone would come to scold him in the camp or regiment, but he didn't expect that after many days, no one would care about it. Later, when he saw the regiment political training director, he actually said to Wu Cheng with a smile: "Company Commander Wu, your troops are well-trained."

Wu Cheng told Li Qinglin about this, and Li Qinglin smiled and said, "You used to be a regular and a standard patriotic soldier. Then you will compare others? They will naturally treat you as an alien. Now, Wu Cheng is also drunk in the military camp, and everyone is almost the same. This is what the national army is called!"

Wu Cheng was amused and cried, and said, "So it's normal for everyone to join in the crowd?"

Li Qinglin smiled and said, "Let's go with each other first, it's your business whether you are in harmony or not. Otherwise, you will still be suspicious of the Communist Party."

After hearing Li Qinglin's words, Wu Cheng was speechless.

Wan'an had fallen, and Pan Kewei didn't know where to retreat. The postal route was cut off from his home. How was his home now? Li Qinglin had no news at all, and he was very anxious.

While the troops were resting, Li Qinglin tried to write a letter to Guo Chengshan in Xi'an, hoping that his arrangements for visiting relatives could be realized.

Li Qinglin sent a letter by military mail, and Guo Chengshan quickly replied.

In the letter, Guo Chengshan first thanked Li Qinglin for his life-saving grace, and then told Li Qinglin that only Jiang Meizhi arrived in Xi'an accompanied by her mother, and the others did not leave Wan'an County. Jiang Meizhi now bought a house in Xi'an and two storefronts lived in Xi'an, where the house was lived by herself, and the two storefronts were rented to others to do business. Jiang Meizhi and her daughter are now relying on rent to support their lives and waiting for production.

After receiving the exact news from his family, Li Qinglin was still not happy. It seems that Li Wanquan and Li Wanxiang were reluctant to leave the land and animals at home, but they still had fantasies about the Japanese army. The two old couples stayed in their hometown with Wei Sanya and two children. Thinking of the brutality of the Japanese army and the dangers their family might encounter, Li Qinglin was in a heavy mood.

Just during the rest of the 52nd Army, the direction of Pinghan Road was in a relatively calm state.

After the Japanese occupied Daming on November 11, because they needed to concentrate their troops on the Jinpu Road and the east and west directions of Pu Road to eliminate the main force of the national army, the Japanese army's forces on the Pinghan Road were partially withdrawn. In addition, because the Japanese army was lengthened and the north was coming in winter, the Japanese army also had difficulties in supplying, and the Japanese army on the Pinghan Road were temporarily unable to move south.

The National Army had already taken over the defense line by Song Zheyuan's First Army. At this time, a strange phenomenon occurred on the Pinghan Line. After the Japanese occupied the strategic areas, they all hid in the city. The National Army concentrated a large number of troops in the Central Plains but rarely took the initiative. The two armies confronted each other on the Baolian Temple south of Anyang and north of Tangyin for three months.

It was these three months that gave the Japanese army a great opportunity to consolidate the occupied areas.

In order to achieve the ambition to invade China, the Japanese adopted a military attack on China, politically divided the regions to establish a puppet traitor government, and adopted the strategy of "using China to control China and using war to support war". As long as the Japanese army occupied a place, they would find traitor agents locally, and then immediately set up a pseudo regime to establish pseudo-armed forces, and implement substantial colonial rule.

After the Japanese army broke the defense line of Zhanghe, they captured Anyang City on January 4. The big tobacco dealer Xiao Ruichen brought a group of traitors to welcome the Japanese occupation with the sun flag. After the Japanese 14th Division entered the city, it immediately changed Anyang County to Zhangde County. Then, according to the Japanese government's "Outline for handling incidents - North China Handling Policy", the traitor Xiao Ruichen was elected as the county governor, and established a puppet government called Zhangde County Office, which was "politically preventing the Communist Party of Japan, and economically inseparable from China."

On November 27, the Japanese army further supported the traitor Xiao Ruicheng in Anyang to establish the pseudo-Henan Autonomous Government, and Xiao Ruichen was appointed as the chairman of the pseudo-Henan Autonomous Government. However, the government of the pseudo-Purpose Power of the Provincial and County was fully controlled by the Japanese Army's Henan Special Service Office.

In December of 1937, the entire North China had fallen, and the Japanese army heading south had already attacked Shandong, Henan, and the Shanxi Provincial Government to the west had fallen.

On December 13, the Japanese Central China Expeditionary Force commanded by Matsui Ishigen invaded Nanjing; on December 14, the Japanese North China Expeditionary Force hurriedly supported the traitors such as Wang Kemin, Tang Shihe, and Qi Xieyuan to establish the so-called "Provisional Government of the Republic of China" in Peking.

Regarding this puppet regime, the Japanese military clearly stated: "The new regime is not a local regime, but a central government that replaces the Nanjing government, and its decrees must be implemented generally in all areas within the sphere of influence of the Japanese army."

His hometown has fallen, and even the Japanese and puppet local regimes have been established, but his family is basically still there. Li Qinglin has no choice at this time.

Li Qinglin, who was depressed, had to study the officer training class. The 25th Division's officer training class looked a lot, and it seemed difficult, but it was not difficult for Li Qinglin, who graduated from university in his previous life and is now familiar with the Japanese "Infantry Practice" and has a lot of battlefield experience during this period. Therefore, while studying and training, he still has time to wander around.

Luoyang is a big city, and the 25th Division is located in the northeast of Luoyang, not too far from Luoyang city.

It is said that Li Qinglin and the others are very convenient to go to Luoyang to play, but the transportation is not convenient at this time. In addition to taking the troops to ride, the soldiers can only spend money to ride the carriages and mule carriages of ordinary people. In addition, the management of the 25th Division is quite strict, and soldiers must ask for leave from their superiors to enter and exit the barracks, which is very troublesome. So Li Qinglin never wants to go again after going to play twice.

The Japanese army on the Pinghan Line has stopped now, and Luoyang seems to be very safe. It is now winter, with snow everywhere, and the weather is cold and the farmers have no farm work to do in the fields. The countryside has entered the free time of winter. After the autumn harvest, farmers have a few spare money in their hands. With the sudden increase of so many garrisons, the markets near the camp have become prosperous. There are markets, and there are stories. Li Qinglin likes to hear stories, so he goes around the markets every few days to hear stories.

There was no electricity at the base, and the military camp usually turned off the lights and rested very early. Li Qinglin always felt lonely at night. One day when he came at 7 o'clock in the evening, he felt very bored, so he went to the various rows to check the sentry with a flashlight.

Just as he was walking on the road with a flashlight, he suddenly found that there were people walking together in groups of three or three on the road in the village. They were carrying lanterns, as if they were walking in the same direction.

If nothing happened, rural people almost never go out at night, and these people all walk in the same direction. Did someone invite a storyteller to open a bookstore?
