    Accompanied by Richardson, Paul was making a final inspection of the entire defense line. It was getting dark at this time. He believed that the most difficult time for them would be after dark.

    "Colonel, there may not be any fighting tonight!" Commander Richardson said with some luck.

    Paul turned to look at him, shook his head, and warned him: "Mr. Captain, when fighting with the Chinese, we must be vigilant at all times. They can always attack us when we least expect it, and when we least expect it."  The locals came to fight, just like when they joined the Peninsula War. No one thought that they would appear when we were about to fight to the Yalu River. If they wanted to join this war, it would be more appropriate at the earliest time! But  , they just appeared so unexpectedly!¡±

    Richardson was a little embarrassed. In front of Paul, he seemed to be a little careless. He could only smile and told him: "Actually, our group has been here for several days. A few days ago, I heard that Dongfang Hengming  There was a lot of gunfire and gunfire from the direction of the city, which made me a little nervous, but our superiors didn't let us move without permission, so we had to stay here. Mr. Colonel, do you know? How unbearable it is to wait without fighting? Let's just do it  It¡¯s like I¡¯m waiting for the arrival of death!¡±

    Paul nodded. Having experienced many wars, he naturally knew the tension of waiting before a battle. Even when he was in the headquarters, at the beginning of the war, he often did not dare to breathe out loudly.  Come, it's like being pressed down by a mountain.

    Captain Richardson continued: "I sent reconnaissance personnel in all directions. These people came back and told me that Chinese people appeared in several directions. They have been gathering. I know that their target is Toipingri. This is  The worries in my heart became more and more serious, but the superiors suddenly ordered us not to retreat, and I was really panicked at that time!" He laughed as he spoke, trying to hide his feelings.

    "Actually, it may be the same for anyone. You may be surrounded by enemies on all sides. It would be strange if you don't panic!" Paul said to Richardson with great understanding, and at the same time: "The most important thing for a commander is to do  Stay calm and patient, if you can't do this, we may be defeated before the enemy comes!"

    "Yeah!" Richardson agreed enthusiastically, and said to Paul flatteringly: "Mr. Colonel, people say you are the popular man in front of General Ridgway. Haha, it seems Ridgway is very wise to think highly of you. The enemy is now  , everyone else is running back, but you are the only one running forward, take a look at those commanders, do you still have the nerve to make irresponsible remarks in the future?"

    Paul frowned. Although the group leader was complimenting himself, listening to his words, it was clear that he had that idea as well, or in the eyes of many people, he was just a flatterer.

    "What other people say is their business; the important thing is that we do it well ourselves!" Paul warned the group leader again, and Richardson nodded repeatedly.

    From the northern position to the western position, here is the French battalion. The battalion commander is called Green, an old lieutenant colonel in his fifties.  It is said that this old man was once a three-star lieutenant general, but because the French army participated in the war with the foreign corps, he only had a thousand officers and soldiers under his command, which was only the strength of a battalion. Commanding a battalion was obviously incompatible with his status as a lieutenant general, so he  The old man demoted himself to lieutenant colonel.  In any case, when Paul first met Lieutenant Colonel Green, he had a good impression of this little old man. Although he was more than ten years older than him, he looked as energetic as a young man.  Green participated in World War II and must have rich combat experience.  This French battalion actually arrived in Dipingli more than ten days earlier than the 23rd Regiment. It was also under the command of this battalion commander that they built the earliest fortifications in Dipingli, including barbed wire fences and several steel and concrete fortifications.  A fortress.

    Compared with the three battalions of the 23rd Regiment, the French position is located on the west side of Topying-ri, surrounded by a very flat rice field and railway lines. It is almost undefeable, so the situation is also the most unfavorable.  But this battalion commander Green didn't care. He actually used the high-rise railway lines to build several bunkers. The entire position was made into a presentable position, which made Paul very satisfied.

    "Mr. Green, are you having any difficulties in camp?" Paul asked the other party politely out of politeness.

    The bald old man glanced at Paul, then at Commander Richardson behind him, and said intentionally or unintentionally: "We French soldiers have always done our duty, no matter where we are placed, we will nail it like nails."  There, even if there are any difficulties, we will work hard to overcome them! Mr. Paul, you should pay more attention to the positions of the three battalions under Commander Richardson.A familiar practice.

    Xiong Gengjie naturally understood what Zhang Xian meant. He hesitated for a moment and wanted to see his brother, but was a little afraid of seeing him. In the end, he shook his head and said to Zhang Xian: "Forget it, I won't see him.  Ah Shui, tell him later, if I can¡¯t come back, put an extra stick of incense for me in front of my mother¡¯s grave!¡±

    Zhang Xian was startled, understanding the grudge between the two brothers, so he had no choice but to nod.

    Commander Zhai quickly came out of Wang Dahu's command post and hurried away with Xiong Guigui. Seeing the two figures disappearing into the dusk, Zhang Xian suddenly felt sad for some reason.  Xiong Guigui was a combat hero established by the 72nd Army, but behind the hero there was also a different kind of sadness.

    "He left?" Xiong Sanwa came out from behind a tree and asked Zhang Xian.

    Zhang Xian was stunned for a moment and nodded. He thought that Xiong Sanwa had been watching behind him. It was precisely because he saw himself talking to Xiong Gegeru that he did not show up.

    "What did he tell you?" Xiong Sanwa couldn't help but ask.

    Zhang Xian frowned and said to him with some blame: "Sanwa, it's not me who blames you. After such a long time, even if he made ten thousand mistakes, he still crawled out of the dead. Why?"  He is also your biological brother, you should forgive him, you can¡¯t be so stingy!¡±

    Xiong Sanwa just snorted and said: "Actually, I don't want to be so stingy, and I always want to forget all this. But when I saw him, it made me think of that thing involuntarily. I  I can never forget it! I can't forget it" He said, his voice lowered and trembling slightly.

    Zhang Xian knew that he was remembering the painful past again. He didn't want to bring up the long-lasting past, so he could only sigh and tell him: "He asked me to tell you that if he can't come back, he will not come back."  I¡¯ll ask you to help him place a stick of incense on your mother¡¯s grave!¡±

    Xiong Sanwa was startled for a moment, and after a long time, she nodded slowly.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
