Chapter 211: That Relationship Is Certainly Not Ordinary
"Oh..." Yu Hua became interested: "Guo Laoge, tell me about it."
Guo Xunqi waved his hand, "You'll find out in a moment!"
He shouted at the top of his lungs, "Hey..."
"In your unit, is the Regimental Commander named Zhou Xun?"
This shout from Guo Xunqi left Zhang Yang completely stunned.
He had only just reported a unit designation, and the Sichuan Army man already knew the name of their Regimental Commander.
Looking at it this way!
It showed that the arriving Sichuan Army troops were very familiar with their Regimental Commander.
This artillery regiment had quite a few soldiers who were from Sichuan Province.
Hearing this, Zhou Xun's brows furrowed slightly as he was deep in thought.
"Second Brother Zhou!" Zhou Xun said in astonishment: "He is my cousin."
This relationship is certainly not ordinary.
"I just found out that your regiment has a total of 24 guns."
"This is the maximum authority I have!"
Two artillery companies, 8 artillery pieces, not bad!
After getting the artillery, Guo Xunqi took Zhou Xun out for a meal.
"You came down from the Songhu Battlefield, so you know."
Now, brothers are about to face an elite, heavy-armed group of devils; brothers are in trouble, you cannot stand by and watch them die.
Everyone should communicate and build some rapport.
"In the military, there must still be rules."
"You must leave after five days!"
"You probably don't recognize me, but I certainly recognize you."
"Since you've already said it, I won't waste words."
Zhou Xun was also taken aback that a Lieutenant General Division Commander had come in person.
He had previously thought it was a general at the level of a Regimental Commander or Brigade Commander.
"If I delay military intelligence, my head will roll."
"Are all your guns towed by trucks?"
"Can you stay behind and help our Sichuan Army fight the devils?"
With Zhang Yang leading the way, Yu Hua and his party soon met the artillery regiment's commander, Zhou Xun.
"Moreover, they can only stay for five days!"
"He praised you, kid, saying you were quite good; after graduating from the Whampoa Military Academy Artillery Branch, you went for further studies at the Tangshan Artillery School Artillery School Artillery School."
"Adjutant Yu, Division Commander Guo!"
"Let's leave some troops behind."
"Mountain guns are usually towed by mules and horses, but the Bofors are too bulky."
"The higher-ups allocated trucks to us so we could leave quickly."
Zhou Xun waved his hand, "I'll call you Division Commander."
Hearing this, Guo Xunqi spoke up: "Why call me Division Commander Guo? That makes us seem like strangers."
"You kid definitely won't just walk away."
With so many people requesting it, Zhou Xun gritted his teeth hard.
Zhou Xun asked directly: "Division Commander, just say it."
Guo Xunqi didn't mind this; since Zhou Xun wanted to call him Division Commander, he would let him.
We Paoge brothers don't have such rules.
"When I was chatting with him back then, he mentioned you."
It turned out the Regimental Commander was from Sichuan Province, and a Staff Officer at Guo Xunqi's division headquarters was a Whampoa classmate of the Regimental Commander, as well as a clansman.
In this current era!
Being from the same hometown, the same clan, also classmates, and fellow Paoge brothers.
"This request is probably a bit difficult to handle."
"The order my regiment received is to go to Jinling to construct artillery positions."
"Once our Sichuan Army troops have no artillery, facing an elite devil division..."
Moreover, when he arrived at the Regiment Headquarters just now, Yu Hua had already noticed.
Zhou Xun's eyes widened, and he shook his head: "Division Commander!"
Calling him Division Commander didn't sound bad either!
"Zhou Xun, you know Zhou Yin, right?"
Upon hearing this, Guo Xunqi became even more satisfied, "Zhou Yin is currently a Staff Officer at my division headquarters."
"And after he graduated from the Whampoa Military Academy, he went straight back to the Sichuan Army."
"I just looked, and the artillery in your regiment is quite good."
"Please, I will take you to see our Regimental Commander."
"Regimental Commander Zhou!"
He hadn't expected a Lieutenant General to arrive.
"You also know that military orders are like mountains; if I stay in the Seventh War Zone..."
"Consolidate the capital!"
Zhou Xun also received a report from his subordinates that a high-ranking general of the Sichuan Army had arrived.
"Call me Big Brother Guo!"
Zhou Yin and Yu Hua accompanied him!
At the dining table, the few of them were also chatting happily.
"The power of this mountain gun is far more formidable than the devils' mountain guns."
Zhou Yin was persuading them on the side, and other Sichuan Army soldiers were also interacting with the familiar soldiers of the artillery regiment.
Zhou Xun looked at Guo Xunqi: "Division Commander!"
Hearing this, Guo Xunqi wore a smile, "Good!"
After eating and drinking their fill, Yu Hua began to ask whether what Zhou Xun's artillery regiment was towing was a 150mm howitzer.
"Only heavy artillery is worthy of motor vehicles; could this be a 150mm cannon?"
Zhou Xun waved his hand: "Adjutant Yu!"
Hearing this, Yu Hua finally understood.
Some soldiers were still exchanging glances with the people Guo Xunqi had brought.
Hearing that two artillery companies would remain, Guo Xunqi was also very happy.
"The artillery equipped by our Artillery Second Brigade is the 75mm Bofors Mountain Gun."
Hearing this!
One cannot just pat their butt and leave!
One must give the brothers a hand.
And at this moment, the artillery regiment soldiers outside the Regiment Headquarters began to shout: "Regimental Commander!"
"I have been waiting for these words."
"We are all from the Sichuan Army; this 23rd Group Army is also our own people."
"Zhou Xun, I knew it, we in the Sichuan Army value relationships the most."
Bofors!
Yu Hua had not expected that what the vehicles were towing was actually this.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Xun frowned slightly, "Oh?!"
"With the Seventh War Zone now established, my Sichuan Army 23rd Group Army is serving as the main force."
"Knowing that our Sichuan Army's weaponry is poor, even inferior to the Northwest Army."
"Can you leave me one battalion of artillery?"
Hearing this, Zhou Xun's face also showed a bit of embarrassment, "Not at all!"
Guo Xunqi looked at Zhou Xun, "You are also from the Sichuan Army."
At the same time, Zhou Yin, a Staff Officer of the Guo Xunqi Division headquarters, also arrived at the Regiment Headquarters.
"What do you need me for? As long as I can help, I will certainly do my best."
"Fine!" Zhou Xun stomped his right foot hard, "I will let the artillery leave a portion behind."
Arriving before Yu Hua and the others, Zhang Yang saluted first, a major and a General Officer.
This artillery regiment would likely really stay in the Seventh War Zone to help the Sichuan Army fight a battle first.
He hurriedly stood out to go and welcome Yu Hua and the others.
Guo Xunqi clapped and cheered: "Good, good, good..."
"One battalion is too many; I will leave you two companies, 8 artillery pieces."
"You have also heard the requests of the brothers outside."
Yu Hua estimated that the soldiers in this artillery regiment were likely all Paoge brothers.
Everyone was talking with tears and snot, saying they were all brothers, Paoge people.
"I am not asking you to leave a whole regiment."
This counted as a greeting.
"The local mules and horses simply cannot bear it; this time we must return to Jinling early."
"If the little devils attack the Seventh War Zone, their planes and cannons will cause huge damage to the Sichuan Army."
As long as the majority of his artillery regiment arrived in Jinling first, it would be fine.
"My Sichuan Army has to rely on flesh and blood to block them."
He also knew that military orders were like mountains, so he continued: "Zhou Xun!"
If the superiors were to inquire, such an explanation would also be feasible.
"Fourth Brother!"
It turned out that Guo Xunqi could guarantee that he could make this artillery regiment stay to participate in the battle.
As for the final two artillery companies, one could explain to the superiors that these were rear-guard troops.
Quite a few soldiers of Sichuan origin also began to call out to Zhou Xun.
As for the other brothers of the artillery regiment, they also ate with the people from the Sichuan Army units.
"Of course I know him!"
After Guo Xunqi chatted with Zhou Xun about some other things.
Guo Xunqi waved his hand: "Regimental Commander Zhou!"
At this very moment, Zhou Xun had already exhausted his greatest authority.
"Division Commander Guo, you must explain this carefully."
As Guo Xunqi's bodyguard, Wang Dadan also immediately introduced Yu Hua and Guo Xunqi.
Regarding Zhou Xun's words, Guo Xunqi had already thought of them long ago.
Upon seeing Guo Xunqi, Zhou Xun immediately saluted: "Hello, Division Commander!"
Zhou Xun saw his second elder brother persuading him, and the Chuan soldiers at the Regiment Headquarters were also clamoring.
At the thought of the Bofors, Yu Hua suddenly woke up.
He had forgotten a major matter.
