Siheyuan: A Family of Loyal and Brave People

There was silence in the reception room of the temporary residence. The special envoy did not continue to ask questions. Everything on the table was Cheng Hao's answer.

The 82nd Division fought hard for several days, suffering more than casualties, and finally succeeded in annihilating the entire rd Battalion of the US Army, leaving no one alive.

The efforts and sacrifices of all the officers and soldiers of the 82nd Division were not in vain. It was all they did that gave Cheng Hao the precious opportunity to annihilate the enemy. The shoulder straps and service gun of the commander of the rd Battalion of the US Army are proof of this, which is enough to comfort the heroic wounded.

“Any questions?

If not, I would like to return to the 702nd Regiment immediately to report."

Cheng Hao broke the silence softly.

The 702th Company of the nd Regiment was suddenly attacked on the way to support, and the company commander and others were unfortunately killed. Cheng Hao had no choice but to accept the order and take on the heavy responsibility.

Now that the mission was accomplished, Cheng Hao should go and pay tribute to Captain Zhao and tell him that he had not disgraced the reputation of the Seventh Company.

"Please wait a moment. We will report this to our superiors immediately and try to send you back as soon as possible."

The special envoy picked up the things on the table, saluted Cheng Hao, turned around and left quickly.

……

"What?! Tell me again, is the information reliable?

The remnants of the US 3rd Battalion were annihilated? ! "

The commander of the 82nd Division, Zheng Guodong, had his eyes wide open like bells, and he was eager to confirm the situation with the intelligence officer on the other end of the phone.

"Reporting to the Chief, the intelligence is true.

The U.S. military issued a casualty report stating that the Third Battalion had been completely wiped out.

There was a reassuring voice from the other end of the line.

The complete annihilation of a troop would affect morale, and the US military would never admit it if it was not true.

"Well, I understand.

Please help me find out which unit did this.

I have to thank our friendly forces for helping our 82nd Division to avenge its defeat!" Commander Zheng was very excited.

He had been thinking about the US Army's 3rd Battalion these days. Now that the enemy has been completely wiped out, he finally felt relieved.

"clear."

After hanging up the phone, Commander Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and announced the good news to Political Commissar Cao and a group of division members standing next to him.

As the news came out, the atmosphere in the division headquarters was immediately excited, and many people couldn't help crying out loud.

The Battle of Chosin Reservoir was arduous, and the best achievement of the 9th Corps was annihilating an entire US regiment at one time.

The 82nd Division fought hard for many days, so it was reasonable for them to wipe out an entire battalion.

Before everyone could be happy for long, the phone in the division headquarters rang again.

Commander Zheng raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and answered the phone himself: "Hello, this is the commander of the 82nd Division, Zheng Guodong."

"Division Commander, the US Army's Third Battalion has been completely wiped out."

Hearing the familiar voice, Commander Zheng frowned. He thought it was someone from the military intelligence department calling, but it turned out to be his old subordinate, Li Zhengguo, the commander of the 642nd Regiment.

"Oh."

Commander Zheng responded calmly, but then his expression suddenly changed and he asked in confusion, "How did you know this?"

The people at the division headquarters had just received the news from the intelligence department, and there was no reason for Li Zhengguo to know it so quickly.

"This one……"

Li Zhengguo hesitated for a moment, calmed down and sorted out his thoughts before answering: "Before the general attack, the 702nd Regiment sent dozens of people to support us, but they were bombarded halfway and only five people came.

Among them there was one named Cheng Hao who fought very bravely.

He was the first to break through the enemy's position after American planes dropped incendiary bombs.

Later he disappeared while pursuing American troops.

We all thought he had died in the battle.

Who would have thought that he would come back alive a few days later, wearing the shoulder straps and service gun of the commander of the 3rd Battalion of the US Army..."

"Well, I see."

Commander Zheng nodded and asked calmly, "Are there any people who were sent by the 702nd Regiment to provide support still alive?"

"No, except Cheng Hao, all of them died."

At this point, Li Zhengguo's tone paused.

The support troops sent by the 702nd Regiment fought so bravely, but he blamed them at the beginning. It was really wrong of him to blame them.

"So, all the people from the 702nd Regiment died, right?" Division Commander Zheng paced slowly. The other people in the division headquarters seemed to be affected by some kind of atmosphere. They were all silent and did not dare to disturb him.

"Yes... No... Only Cheng Hao is left alive, and the others have all died." Li Zhengguo answered seriously.

Commander Zheng took a deep breath and his voice became very serious: "I think you have lost your mind!

The people sent by the 702nd Regiment have all been killed. It is clearly written in the battle report. How could you have made a mistake?!"

"No, Master, Cheng Hao..."

Before Li Zhengguo could continue, Division Commander Zheng interrupted him and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Cheng Hao is from your regiment.

What does it have to do with the 702nd Regiment?

"Commander, it's not a good idea for us to do this." Li Zhengguo finally came to his senses and understood what his superiors meant.

This is an attempt to rob!

"What's wrong with that? Once you come to our territory, you are part of our division.

Hurry and bring the person to me!"

Commander Zheng gave the order without question.

It was not difficult for Division Commander Zheng to transfer someone from another unit. As long as the task was accomplished, the 82nd Division would have accomplished its mission.

……

After resting for two days at the temporary base, Cheng Hao immediately packed up and prepared to leave after receiving the notice to return to the team. He brought very little with him, only a bag of dry food and a water bottle, in addition to a Type 38 rifle for self-defense. The rest of the spoils were all stuffed into the space for preservation.

After a battle, Cheng Hao had a lot of gains. There were a lot of cash and valuables in the space, as well as twenty guns. These guns were captured from the US military and were of very good quality. The only pity was that there were too few bullets, less than two hundred rounds left. If he wanted to restore the organization of the 7th Company in the future, these equipment would be Cheng Hao's capital.

Cheng Hao hurried all the way, and just as he reached the village entrance, he ran into Li Zhengguo who was rushing over.

"Captain Li, what's going on?"

Seeing someone he knew, Cheng Hao's depressed mood eased a lot. Although the battle a few days ago was tough, many people survived. And these people could be considered as friends with him.

"Cheng Hao, I finally found you.

The superior has ordered you to be transferred to the 642nd Regiment as the commander of the 6th Company. Come with me immediately." Li Zhengguo stated his purpose straight away.

Li Zhengguo did not lie. Commander Zheng's order was indeed from his superiors, and he was just following the order.

"That's not right. I just received a notice to return to the 702nd Regiment. How come..." Cheng Hao frowned and asked in confusion.

Compared to going to the 642nd Regiment, Cheng Hao certainly hopes to return to his old unit. He Yuzhu and Squad Leader Hao are still waiting for him.

"The situation has changed. Let's go first. I'll tell you on the way."

Li Zhengguo didn't hesitate at all, he just grabbed Cheng Hao's arm and dragged him away.

No matter what, once they return to the territory of the 642nd Regiment, it will be a done deal and Cheng Hao will not be able to escape even if he wants to.

"Li Zhengguo, you shameless thing, how dare you steal my soldiers!"

Cheng Hao's mind was still in a mess when a loud shout sounded again from afar.
