As soon as it got dark, Jiangwan Military Camp became lively. More than 1,600 soldiers, led by company and platoon commanders, began to run the five kilometers around the training ground before breakfast.
Column after column ran past the path in front of the regiment headquarters. The sound of neat steps and the sound of passwords kept coming and going. Zheng Ping, who had been awake all night, felt completely sleepy. She couldn't help but put on her clothes and walked to the window to observe quietly. This force has not been established for a long time, but it is quite famous in the concession.
Ding Shuping opened her sleepy eyes and asked feebly: "Sister, what are you looking at?"
"Look at your husband's troops."
The phoenix crown on the bedside made the ignorant Ding Shuping suddenly come back to her senses. She shook her head and said, "Sister, what time has it been? You still have the heart to joke."
Zheng Pingru looked back and said calmly: "As long as you come, take care of yourself. Don't think about it like last night. Also, don't sleep with me again tonight. The bride should look like a bride. Otherwise, sooner or later, if this continues If people become suspicious, even your husband won¡¯t be able to protect you.¡±
"He protects me?"
Zheng Pingru sat on the edge of the bed, stroked her black and shiny hair, and said coaxingly: "You choose your own path. Since you have chosen it, you should go on, otherwise you will harm others and yourself My silly sister, people It¡¯s been said like this, why don¡¯t you understand? If I¡¯m not wrong, the matter has been suppressed by him. As long as you don¡¯t act stupid again, there should be no danger.¡±
"Really?" Ding Shuping blinked, with a doubtful expression on his face.
"**Don't leave ten."
The experience of the man in front of her made Zheng Pingru have mixed emotions. She thought of herself and Ding Mo Village, and said with emotion: "No matter what, he is still a responsible man. In comparison, you are much luckier than my sister. "
Ding Shuping couldn't hear what she meant, and could even feel her sadness. He quickly sat up and said with a blushing face: "Sister, I have known him for more than a day or two. How could he be as good as you think? Why? I haven¡¯t taken action yet, maybe it¡¯s for Ziqi and Zijing¡¯s sake.¡±
"Then you have to make good use of this. Don't act like a young lady again, let alone challenge his limits."
Thinking of what Zheng Pingru said just now, Ding Shuping pursed her lips and muttered: "I don't want to fake it with him, so I'll sleep with you tonight."
For the sake of the country, you can sacrifice anything!
"Otherwise, Zheng Pingru wouldn't have gone to the Navy Headquarters to deal with the Japanese, and she wouldn't have let the extremely wretched old pervert from Dingmo Village take advantage of her. So in her opinion, it was worthwhile for Ding Shuping to be a real bride, but facing those big innocent eyes, she found it difficult to speak, and she couldn't open her mouth no matter what.
While talking, another group of soldiers ran past the path outside the window. Zheng Pingru stopped talking, stood up and returned to the window.
Ding Shuping was already used to it. He immediately lifted the quilt and followed him. He pointed at the figures wearing white shirts and yellow military trousers on the side of the training ground. They were running in the opposite direction with the entire queue in the inner circle. "Did you see that?" , he was right there, running around ten or eight times every morning, and didn¡¯t come back until he was too tired to take a shower and eat.¡±
Zheng Pingru asked angrily: "What about after eating?"
"Training, putting on a soldier's uniform, training with the big soldiers, and talking and laughing. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I couldn't believe that he was the prodigal son I knew before."
"What was he like before?"
Ding Shuping snorted coldly and said with disdain: "Eating, drinking, whoring, gambling, except killing people and preventing fires, he did almost all the bad things you can think of. Even Ziqi and Zijing were embarrassed to recognize him as a brother, so they never did it. He is not allowed to go to school, and even if he does, he will be kicked away."
Zheng Pingru pondered for a moment, then suddenly shook her head and said: "Silly sister, we have all been deceived by him! Look at his red face, how does he look like a drug addict? And his subordinates, the whole concession thinks they are a bunch of rabble. They are also jokingly called the 'corpse collection team', but the reality is exactly the opposite. They are not only well-equipped and well-trained, but also have high morale."
"Sister, are you saying that he was always pretending before?"
"I don't know if he's just pretending, but I'm sure he's not as simple as you think."
Ding Shuping reacted suddenly and couldn't help but blurted out: "Sister, when you said this, I remembered that I have never seen him smoking cigarettes in the past few days, and he doesn't have the disgusting smell of cigarettes."
It is better to deal with smart people than with deadheads. Zheng Pingru weighed it and said resolutely: "Shu Ping??Change your clothes and go for a run with your sister. "
"running?"
"A year's plan starts with spring, a day's plan starts with morning, so why are you still hanging around?"
After a while, the two of them put on their military uniforms and appeared on the side of the trail. Before they could see what was going on around them, Chen Changxi, who had just taken up the post, suddenly appeared behind them.
"Madam, Miss Ding, where are you two going?"
Zheng Pingru smiled sweetly, "Walking around, brother, don't we even have this bit of personal freedom?" After saying that, she glanced at him. This glance was soul-stirring. This glance was as deep as water, and the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were full of charm. , looks incredibly beautiful.
It's a pity that Chen Changxi didn't accept this trick. He still looked cold and warned in a neither humble nor condescending manner: "Miss Ding, this is a military camp, and you are still wearing a military uniform, so please abide by the rules of the military. Don't look for trouble, and don't take it upon yourself. Looking for trouble."
¡°You can¡¯t even run for exercise, what kind of rule is this?¡±
"Of course you can run for exercise, but not now," Chen Changxi paused, looked at the oncoming third company of Qiu Ying, and said bluntly: "During the troop exercise, unrelated personnel are not allowed to go to the training ground, not to mention that Miss Zheng, you are not It¡¯s not an unrelated person, but a suspect temporarily detained in our group!¡±
Zheng Pingru was not angry. Instead, she chuckled and said, "The suspect is true, but I am also the cousin of your captain's wife. Big brother, you won't even listen to your captain's wife, right?"
Ding Shuping nodded heavily, "Yes, yes, we are just walking around casually."
You really treat yourself like a dish! Chen Changxi cursed secretly and was about to order the sentry to take them back when Young Master Chen and his party suddenly ran over.
"Good morning, did you have a good rest last night?"
As expected, he greeted him with a smile on his face as if nothing had happened. How could Zheng Pingru, who was determined to give in, miss this opportunity? She grabbed Ding Shuping's hand and chased after him, and followed the inner circle in the opposite direction. Started running.
Young Master Chen didn¡¯t stop her. He continued running as if she didn¡¯t exist. He said without looking back: ¡°How big is the gap in supplies for the baggage train? It¡¯s only a few days before the army leaves. We must hurry up.¡±
"The Corpse Collection Team" rarely sit down for meetings, and even if they do, they are held on a small scale, so running every morning is equivalent to having a morning meeting, which can not only exercise but also carry out the day's work.
Chen Shangwen speeded up and followed him, took a sip from the water bottle handed by Chen Changfu, and replied: "The uniforms and light weapons have been arranged, and now we are thinking about how to transport them; there are still six sets of surgical instruments at the hospital, and the dignitaries are stepping up their efforts. Purchasing; since warehouse No. 2 has been piled up like a mountain, and all of them are flammable and explosive dangerous goods, I plan to transfer a batch there first and wait for the 'boarding force' to issue a pass"
"I will call Ishikawa later, but you must be cautious. It is best to transfer a batch of items on the list first, and then confirm that there are no problems along the way before transferring dangerous goods."
The No. 2 warehouse is in the west of Shanghai. The so-called dangerous goods are arms smuggled from the concession, so Master Chen can¡¯t wait to transport them to Wujin quickly to avoid the long nights and dreams in Shanghai.
"Don't worry, we have everything planned," Chen Shangwen replied breathlessly: "Even Deputy Commander Wang has considered the storage location, so there shouldn't be any problems."
¡°It¡¯s not that there shouldn¡¯t be any problems, it¡¯s that it should be foolproof!¡±
"Understood."
Chen Shangwen nodded, then put the kettle into Chen Changfu's hand, suddenly changed direction and ran out of the training ground. Zhang Xiaoguo, who was originally behind him, sped up and followed him. As he ran, he reported: "Regiment, the departure plan has been modified according to your opinions. Except for the second company of Xie Ying and the first company of Chen Ying, they will escort the supplies with trucks and trains. , the rest of the troops marched on foot. The search team set off three hours in advance, with the Lin Ying Company equipped with bicycles as the vanguard, ready to respond at any time, the Xie Ying Company 1 responsible for the right wing, and the Qiu Ying Company 3 as the rear"
Choosing to walk instead of taking the train was deliberately requested by Master Chen. Only through a long-distance training can he test the training effect during this period, and conduct targeted training after arriving in Wujin to make final preparations for a counterattack.
Young Master Chen pondered for a moment and asked nonchalantly: "Did Mr. Wei have any suggestions?"
"Not yet, but Yamazaki and Kobayashi were so attentive that they actually formulated a training plan based on the itinerary, terrain and time, such as emergency march, encounter, counter-ambush, and counter-sneak attack."
"This is a good thing. Implement it as soon as possible. Also, don't let Big Wei enjoy his leisure time. Try to find something for him to do."
"yes!"Like Chen Shangwen, the director of the logistics department, Zhang Xiaoguo, the groom¡¯s official, also left the queue after he finished talking about the business. After talking and walking one by one, after two rounds, Zheng Pingru suddenly discovered that apart from her and the sweaty Ding Shuping, the only one left was the silent military law captain Chen Changfu.
If you don¡¯t say something, you¡¯ll be running away in vain. Zheng Pingru mustered up her courage and cautiously probed: ¡°Brother-in-law, you are very busy.¡±
"well enough."
Young Master Chen said something perfunctory, then suddenly turned around, slowed down and ran backwards, "Shu Ping, if you can't run anymore, take a rest. No one is pointing a gun at you, so don't exhaust yourself by holding on. "He said it very sincerely, his expression was not fake at all, and his concern and sympathy were beyond words.
It seemed that she really meant no harm to herself. Ding Shuping's uneasy heart finally calmed down, she shook her head and said with a smile: "It's only two laps, I can do it."
Young Master Chen ran slower and slower, took the kettle from Chang Fu, and said softly: "I am the only one who has drunk this pot of water. If you don't mind it, just take a few sips. You are sweating profusely. Need to be hydrated.¡±
"What a sweetheart! It seems that my cousin married the wrong person!" Zheng Pingru took the kettle for her, winked at her, and reminded her meaningfully: "Shu Ping, what are you still doing?"
What surprised the two of them was that Young Master Chen didn't give them a chance to continue talking. He quickly accelerated and ran towards the team headquarters, shouting without looking back: "I have to take a step in advance, sir." Fu, take Madam and Miss Ding back for breakfast."
