Traveling through 1937, starting from the Battle of Songhu

Chapter 274 Talented People Finally Arrive

Tang Renli's words "My father is Tang Shengzhi" made Gu Changfeng stunned, and his memory drifted back to more than half a year ago.

Tang Shengzhi told him to be careful, and his answer seemed rather flamboyant.

"Captain Gu, my father is very grateful to you. He often says that it was you who saved him." Tang Renli said with a smile.

Facing this young man who was younger than him, he was really curious.

"How is Mr. Tang now? I hope the bald guy didn't do anything to him!" Gu Changfeng asked excitedly.

His feelings towards Tang Shengzhi were actually very complicated. If it weren't for the people of Nanjing, he might have just shot Tang Shengzhi to death.

Fortunately, the result was good. After getting to know him better, I found that this person might not be as bad as I imagined.

"My father is doing well. He has returned to Hunan and is doing something for his hometown."

Tang Renli said as he looked at the students getting off the bus: "They are students from my father's school. This time, my father heard that you were here, so he asked me to send them over to help you."

"I didn't expect that Mr. Tang still remembered me. I was..."

Gu Changfeng really didn't expect that Tang Shengzhi was still thinking about him after returning to Hunan, and his mood suddenly became a little complicated.

Tang Renli smiled. "Captain Gu, my father always talks about you. He says if it weren't for you, he would have been infamous forever."

"That's about it. We can talk about the past later," Ji Guangshun interrupted.

He brought a company of soldiers here on an empty stomach just to have a good meal at Gu Changfeng's place. There was no way he was willing to linger outside the town.

Gu Changfeng laughed and said, "Haha, Old Ji, you're just thinking about my braised pork. I'll cook it myself later."

What happened before is in the past, and the result now is the best.

When Ji Guangshun heard about the braised pork, his eyes lit up and he said, "I've been waiting for you to say that."

After saying that, he looked at Sun Shiqi, the leader of the team and said, "Tell the comrades to park the car. We are going to eat at a rich restaurant today."

Sun Shiqi already knew what the regiment commander was thinking, so he nodded and went to give instructions to the soldiers.

Tang Renli looked at the close relationship between the two and suddenly felt curious. In essence, he and his father both belonged to the Kuomintang, and yet Gu Changfeng was so close to the Eighth Route Army...

Although he was curious, he still followed the team at Zhou Qianli's invitation. The students also calmed down a little and followed him into the town.

"Zhilan, it's so lively here," a pretty baby-faced girl said excitedly.

After several months of transformation, Gaojia Town's business naturally flourished as the people had surplus grain.

It was normal for people who had sold their grain to come to the town to buy some cloth, a few pieces of meat, or some snacks for their children.

As a result, more and more merchants come to Gaojia Town, the goods become more and more abundant, and it is natural that it becomes lively.

"It's very lively, and the people are very kind. Look, they are still smiling at us."

The girl named Zhilan was also very excited. It was her first time in such a market town, and the feeling was completely different from that in the big city.

"Mengting, what kind of work do you think we will be assigned to?" a girl with freckles on her face next to Zhilan couldn't help but ask.

The baby-faced girl pretended to think and said, "Maybe they want us to become teachers? I heard that there are very few people who can even read in places like this."

After hearing this, Zhilan thought carefully and said, "What Mengting said is possible, but I don't know who the student is."

As he spoke, he took two quick steps and caught up with a tall, pretty girl in front of him and asked, "Sister Yufen, you are the smartest. Do you know what tasks we will be assigned when the time comes?"

"I don't know about that. Let's wait for Captain Gu's arrangements."

The girl named Yufen is surnamed Chen and is the third daughter of the Chen family in Hunan.

The Chen family is considered a relatively wealthy family in Hunan City. Originally, Miss Chen San would not have been chosen this time, but Miss Chen San took the initiative to find Tang Shengzhi and asked him to join the team.

In fact, Miss Chen San saw the Laiyuan victory report before anyone else and also read the description in the telegram.

So she became curious and wanted to come and see for herself.

You should know that in today's China, there are very few cases where the Japanese regiments are completely destroyed. Even if there are, the losses are several times higher than those of the Japanese.

However, this team only lost more than 2000 people while cooperating with the Eighth Route Army. If the puppet army was included, the casualty ratio was three to one. This was something she was very curious about.

In front.

Gu Changfeng led a group of people to the town office. From time to time, people greeted him and he responded warmly.

Some of the people even made a few jokes, but were also led away by Gu Changfeng with a smile.

Tang Renli, who was following the team, listened and watched carefully. He planned to observe carefully during this period and report to his father when he returned.

After a while, everyone stopped outside a courtyard.

Tang Renli looked up and saw the plaque above that read Gaojia Town People's Office, and nothing else.

Zhou Qianli had been following Tang Renli, and seeing his curious look, he immediately explained.

"This was originally the Gao family's property. After we confiscated their property, we transformed it into what it is now."

"There's a large courtyard inside, with a three-story building used as an office."

Tang Renli nodded and said nothing.

"Everyone, come with me. I'll stay here today and show you the base tomorrow."

The door was not closed, Gu Changfeng went straight in.

It was a little late to go to Xianyaling today, so he planned to entertain these students here first.

Ji Guangshun took a look at the environment, turned to Gu Changfeng and said:

"You're going to have to serve me some real food later. I was surrounded by your special forces on the road, and the soldiers were all scared."

Seeing Ji Guangshun's shameless words, Gu Changfeng was speechless and said with his eyes wide open:

"Old Ji, please stop kidding. I've already told them that the most they can do is come out to verify your identity. It's not as serious as you say."

The special forces’ mission is not just training. They are also responsible for security tasks outside Gaojia Town.

However, this time Ji Guangshun had given the first warning, so when the special forces saw the convoy, they sent a few people to verify and found that there was no such thing as making dumplings as Ji Guangshun said.

"Well, I don't care. Anyway, you must prepare something delicious today. I haven't had a good meal in a long time."

Ji Guangshun is very thick-skinned, and given his relationship with Gu Changfeng, there is no need to be polite.

Gu Changfeng was also joking. Hearing Ji Guangshun say this, he immediately said happily: "Today, in addition to the braised pork, we also have roasted whole lamb. You can eat as much as you want. There will definitely be enough."

How could he be afraid of this? He had plenty of money. Besides paying military salaries, the money in the garrison was also used to ensure logistics.

Upon hearing this, Ji Guangshun couldn't help but swallow his saliva and said, "Then hurry up and prepare. These students can't afford to go hungry."

"If you don't swallow before you speak, I will take it seriously." Gu Changfeng muttered to himself.
