Lu Peng warned, glanced at Wang Yan, and told her not to forget where she was, and then left without stopping.

Returning to the army barracks, Wu Yurou was already waiting anxiously at the door. Seeing Lu Peng coming from the direction of the office, she asked excitedly: "Captain, you are finally back. We are preparing to retreat. Are you okay?"

"It's okay, pack up and get ready to leave." Lu Peng shook his head, looked around, and saw that apart from Wu Yurou, he didn't see Zhao Wenhua, and asked, "Why didn't you see Lao Zhao? He didn't come with us?"

"Captain, you are back. Old Zhao was slightly injured and was just sent to his room to rest. If you don't come back, he probably won't even be able to eat." Wu Yurou said worriedly.

"What's going on? Please explain it in detail." Lu Peng's face changed slightly and he hurried to the room.

When he entered the door, he saw Lao Zhao lying on the bed with blood bleeding from the corner of his mouth. His left leg was wrapped in gauze. It looked like he was seriously injured.

"Captain, you are finally back!" Lao Zhao reluctantly sat up and struggled to stand up, but his body was weak and he couldn't use the strength at all.

"Are you injured?" Lu Peng supported Lao Zhao, frowned, and asked.

"Yes." Lao Zhao nodded, pondered for a moment, and said bitterly: "It's my fault. If I hadn't insisted on following Li Guoqiang, perhaps what happened today wouldn't have happened. Captain, what should I do to make up for it?"

Lu Peng shook his head and sighed: "It's none of your business. Just rest assured and recover. As for Li Guoqiang, leave it to me."

"Thank you, captain, thanks to you this time!" Lao Zhao said sincerely.

"Okay, you're welcome. Since you know you're wrong, correct it. Leave this matter to me. I'll take care of it, and you can concentrate on healing." Lu Peng waved his hand, took out a pen and paper, wrote down a phone number and handed it over. He gave it to Lao Zhao and said, "Write down this phone number. If you encounter any trouble, you can call him directly."

"Thank you, captain!" Lao Zhao was very excited and carefully took the phone number. It was obvious that he cherished this memory card.

Seeing Lu Peng about to leave, He Xiaohui chased after him and asked, "Don't you have to go to the cafeteria to get food?"

"I'm not hungry." Lu Peng said casually, and continued: "By the way, you have worked hard these past two days, and this is your reward."

He Xiaohui hesitated for a moment, put the memory card Lu Peng gave her into her pocket, and smiled sweetly, "Thank you, I like it. I am very satisfied with this job."

Lu Peng couldn't laugh or cry for a while, and secretly cursed himself for being stupid. He obviously wanted to buy her clothes, but he was misunderstood as a reward.

When he came back to his senses, He Xiaohui stuck out her tongue playfully and said jokingly: "Don't you really love beauty? Why did you put it in your pocket again?"

"Hey, because I like to wear skirts, and I believe the captain's aesthetics must be similar to mine." He Xiaohui said shyly, showing two shallow dimples.

"Okay." Lu Peng was completely defeated. He sighed that He Xiaohui was a smart person and was unwilling to dwell on this issue. He urged: "It's getting late. Hurry up and finish your food. I'll take you back."

"Yeah." He Xiaohui nodded heavily, turned around and ran away.

When He Xiaohui walked away, Lu Peng touched the memory card in his pocket and sighed secretly. Thinking of the danger he was about to face, a strong murderous intention surged in his heart. He secretly swore that he would never let anyone hurt his comrades again. No one is allowed to harm He Xiaohui.

After thinking for a while, Lu Peng decided to discuss it with Xu Minhao in person. After thinking about it, he walked towards Xu Minhao's office.

"Dong dong!" Knocked on the door, Lu Peng pushed the door open and found Xu Minhao sitting alone at the table. Seeing Lu Peng come in, he smiled and said, "I'm here just in time. I have something to talk to you about."

"What's the matter? Professor Xu, please tell me." Lu Peng understood and guessed what Xu Minhao wanted to say, so he asked proactively.

"I want to hear your opinion, should I continue to stay here or change positions." Xu Minhao asked, his expression becoming more serious.

Lu Peng was stunned and asked: "Why do you suddenly think of changing places?"

"Actually, I was considering this issue as early as half a year ago, but I just kept hesitating. Until last night, I felt that I had to make a choice." Xu Minhao said seriously.

"How do you say it?" Lu Peng asked curiously.

"During this period, I have thought a lot and feel that we should avoid the edge appropriately. After all, this is an extraordinary period. The Japanese troops are scattered everywhere, and enemy agents are active. The situation is getting more and more tense. If we are rashly exposed, not only will it be It may cause the entire defense line to fester, and even affect the entire army. At that time, I am afraid it will cause unnecessary chaos. The most important thing is that in this way, our advantage will be gone." Xu Minhao explained.

"Is this your own intention or the political commissar's?" Lu Peng did not refute and asked another question.

"Of course it's my own intention." Xu Minhao said without hesitation, as if he expected Lu Peng to ask this question, and added: "Although we don't know who the enemy's target is for the time being, I'm sure that once they succeed, ,The consequences could be disastrous."

"I understand what you mean, but it's not the time for us to show our faces, let alone we can't be exposed yet." Lu Peng patiently comforted.

"I understand, but I still hope to minimize the losses." Xu Minhao looked at Lu Peng seriously.

"This..." Lu Peng was in trouble. After thinking about it carefully, he found that he also had selfish motives. To put it bluntly, he just couldn't bear to give up this organization.

"Don't worry, as long as I live, I guarantee that nothing will happen." Xu Minhao promised as if he could see what Lu Peng was worried about.

"Okay, I will consider this issue." Lu Peng didn't know how to speak and agreed vaguely.

Xu Minhao did not continue to press Lu Peng. He stood up and said, "I'm going to eat first. You can come with me."

"Okay." Lu Peng nodded in agreement.

After lunch, Xu Minhao called Lu Peng, and the two went straight to a secret headquarters.

At this time, many people had gathered in the room, and they all seemed to be veterans. Lu Peng roughly counted seven or eight people.

Lu Peng was secretly surprised, vaguely aware that there was something wrong with these people, calmly calmed down his momentum, and stood quietly on the spot.

"Report, the chief of staff and deputy commander are here." Someone shouted.

Everyone looked at the door, their eyes suddenly lit up, they were obviously prepared for Xu Minhao's arrival, and they all stood up from their chairs.

"Sit down." Xu Minhao called everyone to take a seat, motioned Lu Peng to stand next to him, and introduced: "Hello everyone, this is the new teacher of our third battalion, Comrade Lu Peng."

"Nice to meet you!" Everyone shook hands with Lu Peng enthusiastically, showing great cooperation.

"Hello everyone!" Lu Peng greeted everyone politely, secretly wondering what kind of medicine Xu Minhao was selling in the gourd. He glanced suspiciously and found that Xu Minhao's eyes were fixed on a black box in the corner, and he suddenly realized.

The black box was equipped with a tape that was similar to a video tape. Lu Peng had seen this thing before when he was in Wuhan. Knowing Xu Minhao's thoughts, he thought about it and deliberately reminded: "I have seen this thing in Wuhan. It is used to play From a movie or TV show.”

"Oh?" Xu Minhao looked at Lu Peng with interest, "This is a good thing. I have never used it before. Which of you has used it before?"

"Report, I tried it once, and the effect is very good, especially the soundtrack, it is simply great." A noncommissioned officer wearing glasses raised his hand and said.

"Haha, yes, it seems you really understand the principles of music." Xu Minhao said with appreciation, and then focused his attention on the faces of the others.

Everyone echoed, with a hint of regret and nostalgia in their words.

Lu Peng took the opportunity to observe everyone's expressions and found that everyone did not deliberately hide it. They seemed to be highly educated people, and he couldn't help but feel a little curious.

Xu Minhao was silent for a moment and solemnly ordered: "Since everyone is familiar with this thing, let's use it today to develop a weapon specifically targeted at the anti-Japanese armed forces."

"Yes!" Everyone agreed loudly, with high morale.

"You just said that enemy agents are frequently active now?" Xu Minhao continued to ask.

"Yes." Lu Peng replied affirmatively, then changed the subject and suggested: "But don't forget, the nature of our work is fundamentally different from theirs. I don't think we need to compete with them for the market, regardless of them No matter what action we take, we only need to hold on to the base and persist until the superior troops send reinforcements. I believe they are not our opponents."

"I agree with Instructor Lu." Xu Minhao nodded in agreement.

Lu Peng was slightly startled, realizing that Xu Minhao was determined to do something. He hesitated and suggested: "You all know that over the years, the national army has cut back on food and clothing, and even the military pay has not been paid, and now it is facing the enemy again. We are in a difficult situation during the siege. Instead of sitting and starving, we should change the status quo and strive to create conditions for the troops."

"It's easy to say, but it's not as easy as you said?" Xu Minhao sighed.

"No matter what, we have to give it a try. We can't give up eating because of choking!" Lu Peng said nonchalantly. Thinking that these people were all veterans, he couldn't help but said: "Besides, there are no absolutes in this world. I I remember a famous historical allusion, which seems to have said that Zhou Yu was desperate and desperate, but the ending was surprising..."

No one had heard of this historical allusion Lu Peng mentioned, but Xu Minhao knew it. His eyes rolled around and he asked: "You mean Sun Quan?"

Lu Peng shook his head and corrected: "It's not Sun Quan, but Liu Bei. Liu Bei was once trapped in Jiangdong. The situation at that time was far worse than it is now. However, he found an opportunity to make a comeback and successfully defeated Yuan Shu."

"Liu Bei?!" Xu Minhao raised his eyebrows, looked at Lu Peng thoughtfully, and said with a smile: "Your words sound familiar, as if you are talking about Cao Cao, do you mean that we can also take advantage of this now? "

"You can say that, but we still have to discuss how to operate it specifically." Lu Peng said noncommittally.

"That's what I meant." Xu Minhao's eyes lit up, then he looked at the corner and said, "Let's go to the conference room."

Lu Peng understood in his mind and followed a group of people towards the conference room.

Entering the conference room, Lu Peng looked around and found that in addition to tables, chairs and benches, there was a wooden bed with a red flag hanging above the bed. It was obviously a makeshift office. It looked a bit shabby, and he couldn't help but take a second look.

"This is your room. When there is a mission, I will arrange for soldiers to help you tidy it up. You will usually live here. When we conquer Wuling City, we will assign you a dormitory." Xu Minhao explained.

"Thank you!" Lu Peng looked at Xu Minhao gratefully, knowing that his guess was correct. He could see that Xu Minhao had not treated him badly.

"This is an order, don't refuse!" Xu Minho said with a straight face.

Lu Peng smiled bitterly, nodded helplessly, then changed the subject and asked: "The current situation is not optimistic. Should we seize the time to arrange defensive positions and construction plans for each level?"

"Well, it really needs to be perfected as soon as possible." Xu Minhao no longer cared about Lu Peng's previous rashness, and started talking smoothly, "First of all, we have to figure out what the little devil wants to do. If we just want to occupy Wuling City, there is no need to spend a lot of money. The most important thing about Zhou Zhang's resistance troops to attack Wuling City is that they don't need to go to such trouble and can attack by force. After all, Wuling City has little oil and water, and it is not worth the high cost for them. Secondly, our logistics supply line is too long, and the daily supplies The consumption is huge, coupled with the lack of ammunition and food and grass, it is simply not enough to support our consumption. Although I don't think the enemy has this ability, but what if, don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst. If they really break through our defense line, The consequences would be disastrous.”

"Yes, I agree with Brigadier Xu's point of view. We are now passive." Lu Peng knew very well that Xu Minhao's so-called inability to guarantee was more of a perfunctory statement.

If it were in the past, Xu Minho would not have been able to speak so straightforwardly, and he would not even bother to talk about this topic with himself.

After thinking about all this, Lu Peng did not expose it, but asked: "In your opinion, what should we do?"

Xu Minhao was obviously stunned for a moment, stared at Lu Peng for a few seconds, and said with a smile: "Instructor Lu, we are both men, you don't have to beat around the bush, tell me, what is your opinion?"

"I don't have much idea. Since I have decided to fight, I have to show some courage. If I don't even have the courage to fight a tough battle, how can I win the war?" Lu Peng said without thinking.

"Okay! Feel free!" Xu Minhao gave a thumbs up, "Tell me, what do you need me to do?"

"The target is Wuchang County." Lu Peng said calmly.

"You want to seize Wuchang?" Xu Minhao was surprised, then calmed down, and looked at Lu Peng suspiciously, "With all due respect, your courage is admirable, but you can only bring hundreds of people with you." , I’m afraid it’s very risky to seize Wuchang County. Wuchang is too close to Wuhan, so the little devil must have been prepared. I advise you to give up on this idea.”

"Brigadier Xu, you misunderstood me. Don't you think Wuchang is a good place?" Lu Peng was noncommittal and said with a smile: "What I mean is that Wuchang County is where the Japanese army is stationed. We can definitely do it in Wuchang." Come up with something."

"Do something happen?" Xu Minhao became more and more confused.

"To put it simply, it's to kill the Japanese." Lu Peng said.
