    Zhang Xian jumped off the horse, and a guard beside him immediately took the reins from his hand.  Xiong Sanwa and Chen Daxing also dismounted and followed him.

    When he walked to Xu Haibo's side, the old man who held Xu Haibo turned to hold Zhang Xian's hand. The old man burst into tears and cried: "Commander Zhang, please let me go."  Xiao San, he is only sixteen years old, still just a child!"

    Zhang Xian was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Xu Haibo.

    Xu Haibo shrugged and said to Zhang Xian: "They all have various reasons for refusing to perform military service, but their names have already been reported and cannot be changed. If this one is accommodated, then more than two thousand people should  So accommodating!¡±

    Zhang Xian looked at the old man with a wrinkled face and felt a little soft-hearted. He said to Xu Haibo: "Old Xu, there is no need to conscript those under the age of 18!"

    Xu Haibo said reluctantly: "Master, you are kind-hearted. Who knows if he is eighteen years old? I have also asked about the situation of this old man's family. He has four sons, all of whom are unmarried. After hearing this  When it came to conscription, the eldest and second eldest children ran away, leaving only the third and fourth sons. Their fourth son was fifteen or sixteen years old. They were all young men. I only recruited his third son. Let¡¯s talk about their family situation.  , five bare men, extremely poor, and this old man has to keep a tight lid on his son! If their family doesn¡¯t have a son, it will be even harder for others to blame!"

    Hearing what Xu Haibo said, Zhang Xian was also a little confused about the old man, and said unhappily: "Old man, serving as a soldier for the country is the duty of the citizens. During this period of fighting against the rebellion, everyone should fight for the country. If people  If people are selfish, then our country will be finished!"

    The old man didn't understand Zhang Xian's principle, but he kept crying: "The little ones in my family have never traveled far away. This child is honest and has never caused any trouble. He is still young. You want to  Do we need someone from my family to see if my old bones can be used? I can carry two hundred pounds without any problem!"

    Zhang Xian gave a wry smile and said to the old man: "Old man, we are going to fight, not to collect heads!"

    When he heard that he was going to fight, the old man became even more sad and cried: "If you want to die, let me, an old man, die. Our three little ones can't die. He is still young"

    Zhang Xian suddenly understood. No wonder these people were afraid of becoming soldiers. It turned out that everyone thought that as long as they became soldiers, they would die. He smiled and explained to the old man: "Old man, who said that being a soldier means you will die? You  Look at the many soldiers in our army, everyone has been there for many years, who has died?"

    Hearing what Zhang Xian said, the old man was stunned for a moment. He looked at the soldiers with guns and live ammunition behind Zhang Xian, and he didn't believe Zhang Xian's words.

    Chen Daxing came over, smiled and said to the old man: "Old man, don't worry. Look at me, I was arrested in the 30th year of the Republic of China, and my family was crying to death at that time, haha,  After all these years, look, am I not doing well now? I have even become a battalion commander."

    Xiong Sanwa next to him also helped: "Yes, I was also arrested. In fact, there is nothing wrong with being in the army. When I was at home, I never had enough to eat. After I arrived in the army, I couldn't eat enough."  You don¡¯t have to worry, you can eat as much as you want. Clothes and shoes are given out, and you can get silver dollars every month. Other troops give out paper notes, but our reorganized 11th Division gives out gold!" He said this  It's true. Not long ago, the Ministry of National Defense's salary did not arrive in time, and the national currency issued by the government was not valuable. It was impossible to buy anything on the front line. Therefore, in desperation, Nanjing specially allocated money from the national treasury.  A batch of gold was obtained and distributed to several troops.  The reorganized 11th Division also received a lot of money. Due to time constraints, Hu Congjun was too lazy to find anyone to exchange silver coins. In order to get them to the soldiers in time, he broke the gold into pieces and converted it into silver coins and distributed them to the soldiers.  in hands.

    With what Chen Daxing and Xiong Sanwa said, the old man couldn't help but stop crying and looked at the strong men in the field with some disbelief. His son was among them.

    "Dad! You go back! I serve as a soldier and eat food, there is nothing wrong with it!" Suddenly, a childlike voice came from among the strong men.  Zhang Xian turned around and saw a young man pushing the monk's head, standing thin and withered in the crowd, but this young man's head was very big, and he looked completely malnourished, but his eyes were very shining.  , looking still a little lively.

    "Is he one of your three elders?" Zhang Xian asked the old man.

    The old man nodded and told Zhang Xian: "Yes!"

    "what is his name?"

    "Yu De Shui!"

    "Haha, heThe troops are in full force!  "

    Zhang Xian was very serious: "Master, are you telling the truth? I would rather be a coach than a brigade commander!"

    Seeing what Zhang Xian said, Hu Congjun changed his face: "Axian, I think you want to hide away for a while? You think so beautifully, I just said this, but you really take it seriously.  It¡¯s over! Haha, when the war is over, you can be your coach again!¡±

    Zhang Xian was a little disappointed, but he also knew that during this period, even if he wanted to go back to Wuhan to see his wife and children during his busy schedule, he would have to obtain special approval from his teacher.  At this time, Xinyang was very close to Wuhan, and with the convenience of the Pinghan-Han Railway, a one-day round trip was enough.  However, precisely because he was a brigade commander, he had no choice but to hide his urgent mood.

    Hu Congjun looked at the young brigade commander, as if he could see what was on his mind, and said leisurely: "Are you a little homesick?"

    Zhang Xian was stunned for a moment. It seemed that his every move could not escape the keen eyes of the teacher. He could only nodded and said truthfully: "Yes, it has been more than a year since I left Wuhan. It turns out that when I was in Shandong, although I  I often miss home, but because we are far away, I can bear it. Haha, now that we are in Xinyang, so close to Wuhan, we feel like we are returning home!"

    Hu Congjun smiled and asked him again: "Do you miss your wife or your son?"

    Zhang Xian said apologetically: "I miss you all, especially my son. Xiaohu is already five years old. Think about it, he has been with me for less than a year!"

    Hu Congjun nodded. His family members are also in Wuhan, so it is impossible for him not to think about it.  Hearing what Zhang Xian said, he couldn't help but joke: "Zhang Xian, don't you miss your two wives? Haha, your two wives are both Chang'e descended to earth, so you are not afraid that they will change their minds.  ?"

    Hearing what Hu Congjun said, Zhang Xian became serious and said calmly: "Actually, I have been thinking, why do soldiers like us get married? It is a waste of other people's youth! Haha, actually I have thought about it for a long time.  Well, fate is something that you can¡¯t control. If you believe in love, then you should believe in them; if you are still suspicious of your wife, that means you can¡¯t believe in love. What¡¯s the point of being together? My  Both wives are willing to follow me, and it is not arranged by my parents. If I really doubt their loyalty to me, this marriage will have no foundation. I have already thought about it, if they really have to change their feelings.  If you are in love, then just let them be, what's wrong with adult beauty?"

    Hu Congjun listened to his answer blankly, but had a different view: "Zhang Xian, you are such an open-minded person! I don't think so. If my wife is unfaithful to me, I will kill her!  "

    Zhang Xian was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered his former teacher Zhang Linfulai. Although Zhang Linfu and Hu Congjun had two different personalities, they obviously had the same views on this issue. They were both typical male chauvinists.

    "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore! Let's talk about more serious things." Hu Congjun stopped talking.

    "Is there any action taken again?" Zhang Xian asked.

    Hu Congjun nodded and told him: "We are about to attack the Dabie Mountains. We will be ready to set off in two days, so you must take advantage of these two days to quickly prepare the recruits of the 11th Brigade. The best thing is not to let them hear it.  The sound of the gunshot made me wet my pants!¡±

    "Yes!" Zhang Xian replied resolutely.

    "If this operation goes well, we may be able to return to Xinyang on New Year's Day. Then I will bring you all a big surprise!" Hu Congjun finally said leisurely.

    Zhang Xian was stunned for a moment and asked quickly: "Oh, what's the surprise?"

    Hu Congjun smiled mysteriously and said, "If I tell you now, what surprise do you have?"

    Seeing that the teacher was unwilling to tell him immediately, Zhang Xian had no choice but not to ask further questions.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
