    On the first day, everyone just played for fun, but with a 70% return rate, there were still quite a lot of winners. Even some units began to collectively buy anti-Japanese fund lottery tickets and distribute them to everyone in the unit as a benefit - the cost was only a dime.  If you don't win, forget it. If you win, besides the fifth and sixth prizes, that's a lot.

    When more lottery tickets are issued, there are also gold and stone collectors who specialize in collecting lottery tickets from various places, and even deliberately keep some winning tickets - those who collect are rich people, and they don't care about the dozens of winning tickets.  One hundred yuan, and there are also those who specialize in collecting tickets issued by various hotels.  This was originally a multifarious era.

    The Military and Administrative Department of Peiping is very busy at the moment. Chahar, directly under the jurisdiction of Peking, Tianjin, Rehe, is classified as the first war zone. The commander-in-chief of the war zone is the principal, and the deputy commander-in-chief is Minister Song. Everyone knows that the principal is very busy, and Minister Song reports many things.  Make up your mind after preparation.  But as long as there is no hole in the head, the little devil will definitely not take this road again. It is very safe here for the time being.  Suiyuan, Shanxi, has been classified as the second war zone. The commander of the war zone, Yan Xishan, is now testing whether Shanxi has permanent fortifications like Rehe. It is still safe.

    The actual fighting started in the Third War Zone in Ningxia, Shaanxi Province. The commander-in-chief was Zhang Zhizhong, commander of the 71st Army.  But both the Japs and the Central Army are frantically deploying troops to this place.  The real ones who fought were Ma Jiajun and the Japs.  After having a camp roar a few days ago, Itagaki Seishiro's troops have not made any major moves yet.  Ma Jiajun naturally thought that this was because the little Japs were afraid of being beaten by Ma Jiajun, but he did not see the hundreds of thousands of Central Army troops arriving in Xi'an one after another.

    In order to resist Japan and also insert the tentacles of the Central Army into the northwest region, Principal Jiang also spent a lot of money and transferred ace troops such as the First Army and the 71st Army.  Needless to say, the First Army became famous during the Northern Expedition. The Seventy-first Army (which governs 36 divisions, 87 divisions and 88 divisions) was adapted from the First Guard Division and the Second Guard Division. It is the Royal Forest Army in the true sense.  After the baptism of the Songhu Anti-Japanese War, after the reorganization the following year, supply has always been given priority. The one that can compete with the 71st Army is the First Army (which has jurisdiction over the 1st Division, 3rd Division and 78th Division. The original 2nd Division was transferred to  Seventeenth Army) and the Teaching Corps.

    Soldiers have to be transferred there, as well as machine guns, artillery bullets, artillery shells, aircraft and tanks.  Modern war is no longer fought by soldiers armed with swords and guns. The Japs mobilize their troops earlier than the Central Army. However, the Central Army mobilizes troops internally, while the Japs need to use the Far East Railway of Polar Bears and cross the Mongolian region where there are no railways.  In this regard, the two sides are evenly matched in terms of transportation.

    The transportation capacity of the Longhai Line's first-line railway is not enough for hundreds of thousands of troops and their equipment and supplies. The batch of arms sent to Shanxi that Jin Batian saw last time was tolls for Yan Xishan. Use the goods in Shanxi  The railway transported some supplies and materials to the Xi'an front line.

    The most exciting of these troops is undoubtedly the First Army. After the Northern Expedition and the Central Plains War, the First Army has been used as a guard army around Nanjing to defend the capital.  They have not been on the battlefield for four or five years, and the soldiers are in iron-clad camps. Now less than half of the middle and low-level officers in the army have never fought in a war except to suppress bandits, and most of the soldiers and non-commissioned officers have never fought in a battle except to suppress bandits.

    If there is no war, no one will die. Many people may think that this is a good thing.  However, the training of foreign instructors from allies will not stop until there is a war. The First Army has always maintained the same training intensity as the teaching corps. The high-intensity training all day long makes every soldier think - let us go to war.  Bar.

    Outside the gate of the Jin Mansion, an old monk with a gray beard and a stooped figure chanted the Buddha's name: "Amitabha, donor, if you have some sauced elbows, please give me one or two. If you don't have sauced elbows, roast duck is fine. I haven't had any water or rice for two days."

    The concierge Lao Zhang opened the small window on the door, took the chicken leg and gnawed on it, saying: "Go away, you beggar, or I'll beat you. I can't even eat roast duck with soy sauce elbow, so how can I have any extra for you."

    "I'm begging for alms, not begging for food." The old monk said calmly: "Roast duck with elbows or chicken legs without sauce is also good."

    "You monk, why are you always thinking about my chicken legs? If you want to eat steamed buns or pancakes, I'll go to the kitchen and get you two."

    "It's good, it's good. I also use some wine and meat, but I'm not a vegetarian. Don't you hear that the wine and meat passed through the intestines and stayed in the heart of the Buddha. It was precisely because I wanted to keep this Buddha in my heart that I swore not to be a vegetarian."

    When Lao Zhang saw such an arrogant monk for the first time, he threatened, "If you don't leave, I will really go out and beat you."

    This old monk is an eating master who had a relationship with Jin Batian on the Jehol front line.  Although Master Nengchi made some money on the battlefield and spent more than a year happily in Bada Hutong, the watches and gold rings that Zuochi Shankong brought back from those years were all put into pawn shops.

    What Sister Youdao loves is beauty. Maybe even though Master Chi is only in his thirties, his uncontrolled consecration work and taking a large amount of three-branch and nine-leaf clover make him look more like a person in his sixties or seventies. This beauty is also  It no longer exists.  No money, no beautyThe master of eating was driven out of this gentle hometown.

    Then, the master had no choice but to return to his old business and continue begging for alms.  Even the masters from small families were not allowed to go there. They only went to those deep houses and large courtyards. Often because there were elderly people in the family who believed in Buddhism, they were obedient to the monks who came to ask for alms.  Who knows that I have been memorizing Chinese characters these past few days, and I have been to several restaurants in a row without getting enough make-up.  However, it is true that Master can eat water and rice for two days without breaking his teeth. The silver coins he transformed into a few days ago have not been used up yet. If he is thirsty, drinks wine and is hungry and eats meat, what should he do if he needs water, rice and teeth.

    Of course, Lao Zhang would not go out and beat him. This old monk looked to be over seventy, if not eighty. Whoever beat him to death would be the one to blame, but if he didn¡¯t scare him away, it would be hard to live in peace today.  You should know that monks have the most leisure time. The last time a nun came, she chanted sutras outside the door without asking for alms. She chanted for three hours. In the end, the ladies in the backyard knew about it and quickly sent her away with money.

    This kind of alms for monks is different from that of beggars. Beggars can just give you some food, a few copper coins or old winter clothes.  However, monks will never stop begging for alms until they achieve their goals.

    During the quarrel between the two, Jin BaTian deserted and returned early.  When Lao Zhang saw the master coming back, he immediately opened the small door.

    Jin Batian didn¡¯t go in, so he asked first: ¡°Lao Zhang, what¡¯s going on?¡±

    Lao Zhang replied: "That monk, you have to ask for some soy sauce elbow or roast duck for alms."

    The master who can eat is such that he no longer remembers who Jin Batian is. Although this master slapped the master severely several times, the master who can eat still remembers the two beautiful guards of Jin Batian. This figure, appearance, temperament and professional plus  Even those in Sijiucheng dared to say that it was a scorpion that pooped - it was the only one, and the master who could eat it would certainly not forget it.

    When Master Nengchi saw an acquaintance, he immediately recited the Buddha's name: "Amitabha, it turns out we are an old friend."

    Being recognized, Jin Batian had nothing to do. Fortunately, he bought a roast duck in the morning and ate only one duck leg.  Jin Batian took out more than half of the roast duck wrapped in oil paper and stuffed it into the hands of Master Can Eater, saying to himself, "I'm old, old friend."
