"Tianjin?" Li Xiaoyi was stunned, "Isn't your hometown in Henan?"

"Yes, my hometown is in Henan, but there is no one in my hometown, and I will never settle down even if I go back. It's better to go to Tianjin Wei to make a try!" Xu Zhongyi said.

"I thought even if you don't go back to your hometown, you would choose to go to Harbin or another city. I didn't expect you to go to Tianjin!"

"People go to high places and water flows to low places. I am still young. If I don't make a career and live like a person, I will not return home!" Xu Zhongyi said heavily.

"Ambition!" Li Xiaoyi gave a thumbs up and said in admiration.

"I'm just talking about it, which made Platoon Leader Li laugh!" Xu Zhongyi immediately changed to a self-deprecating smile.

"Who doesn't want to make a name for themselves? It's normal for you to have this idea!" Li Xiaoyi said, "Come on, let's have a meal!"

"What's so fragrant?"

"Roy deer meat, peanuts, pig elbows, wine, old white dry!" Li Xiaoyi took it out likewise.

"Good guy, so many, your Dong Kang food is good enough!" Xu Zhongyi said in amazement.

"This is not our food, it is our Deputy Brigade Commander Zhou who paid out of his own pocket to reward you!" Li Xiaoyi said, "He has gone to the meeting and can't come. Let me come over for him!"

"Deputy Brigade Commander Zhou?"

"It's Commander Zhou. What you have seen before isn't he giving you this opportunity, and you can make such a great contribution?" Li Xiaoyi explained.

"He is your deputy brigade commander?" Xu Zhongyi was surprised. This brigade commander is older than the regiment commander. Even if he is a deputy, he is at least higher than the regiment commander. Why doesn't this man look like a brother-in-law? "I thought he was a battalion commander!"

"Haha, then Yao Zishan is our battalion commander!" Li Xiaoyi said with a smile.

"Platform Commander Li, a young officer came to see me at noon today and asked me a lot of questions. I didn't dare to ask who he was, do you know?"

"You mean the one who came to see you at noon today?" Li Xiaoyi said, "I have never seen you before, I am a handsome man. Maybe he is the staff officer of the division headquarters!"

"I don't look like the staff officer of the division headquarters. He looks like a high-ranking official, and his aura is not comparable to that of a staff officer!" Xu Zhongyi shook his head and said.

"Come on, drink, why do you, a big soldier, know so much?" Li Xiaoyi filled Xu Zhongyi's glass with wine.

"Don't you guys banned alcohol?"

"It depends on the situation. We can still drink a little. But it cannot exceed the specified amount, otherwise we will be punished. Today is a rest, and it doesn't matter if you drink some alcohol. It won't work tomorrow. As long as it's a war, no one is allowed to drink alcohol. Drinking alcohol will cause a loss of head. Who do you think can't get along with your own head?" Li Xiaoyi explained.

"So that's the case. I thought you Dong Kang people didn't drink alcohol!" Xu Zhongyi smiled.

"Come on, have a drink for the victory of our first phase of the exercise!"

"Dry!"

"Wow. This wine is so strong, it's good!" A cup of spicy Lao Bai's stomach was filled with stomach. Two red glows rose on Xu Zhongyi's face.

"You boy heard that you also work as a platoon leader in the secret service regiment!"

"Haha, it used to be a sharp knife platoon, but later it was sent to a cannon fodder platoon, and then it became completely cannon fodder!"

"You still share this with each other?"

"Haha, I'm not afraid of you to joke about it. We are a miscellaneous army. My uncle doesn't love me. My grandma doesn't love me. The superiors are more greedy than the other. They run faster than anyone in war. But they make money, play with women and smoke big cigarettes. They are all more enthusiastic than anyone else. I have seen through it. If I stay in the Forty-first Army, I will be ruined in my life!" Xu Zhongyi burped and said.

"Eat vegetables, eat vegetables..."

"It's delicious, how did this roe deer come from?"

"Of course I called it. There are so many in the mountains and forests, but it's so fat. If Deputy Brigade Commander Zhou hadn't spoken, we might not have the oral conscience!" Li Xiaoyi said.

"By the way, the exercise has entered the second stage, right?" Xu Zhongyi asked, "Is this second stage a direct confrontation between red and blue?"

"Well, it's the direct confrontation between Hong and Blue, but the exercise plan is a bit different from the first stage, and the opponents of both Hong and Blue will also join in in the first stage!"

"So, the people from the secret service regiment will join the Blues to participate in the exercise?"

"Yes, but not all, except those who participated in the first phase of the exercise, except those who were seriously injured and those who lost their combat effectiveness!" Li Xiaoyi explained.

"Is this time a win or lose?"

"Well, but in order to reduce casualties, the gunpowder of heavy weapons will be reduced to one-third this time, and its power will be reduced!"

"Then can I participate?" Xu Zhongyi asked.

"you?"

"Yes, I know that my identity is awkward, but I am now considered a member of you Dong Kang. And I have participated in the first phase of the exercise. According to the principle, I can participate!" Xu Zhongyi said.

"Can you follow the exercise rules, if you want to participate, you must join the Blues. Can you?"

"Join the Blue Army?" Xu Zhongyi was suddenly discouraged when he heard this.

"You should calm down a little bit. Even if you want to participate, the above will not agree, and the Blues will not accept you!"

"I don't join the Blues, wouldn't it be better if I join you?"

"What would the Blues think if you join us?" Li Xiaoyi asked back.

"Okay!" Li Zhongyi shook his head in disappointment. The inability to participate in the second stage of the exercise was equivalent to losing an opportunity to show his abilities and value.

"Don't let go of these fantasies. In fact, demobilization is good. At least you don't have to follow so many rules. You are not young anymore. How good is your life to marry a wife and have a few children?"

"Don't Platoon Leader Li want to live such a life?"

"I think, why don't I think, I even dream, but I can't get through it!"

"Why can't you pass?"

"If the Japanese take over my hometown, can we live that kind of life if we don't take back my family?" said Platoon Li.

"That's right, drive the damn Japanese out!"

At the Xiaoheishan Camp, the exercise director team held a military meeting of the main commanders of both sides, and the meeting was chaired by Zhang Zhongji, the leader of the exercise director team!

"The plan for the second phase of the exercise has been announced. According to the previous setting, the 41st Army is the Blue Side and the 36th Division is the Red Side, and a confrontational exercise with the purpose of actual combat!" Zhang Zhongji said, "The commander-in-chief of the Red Side is Zhou Zhendong, deputy commander of the 106th Brigade of the 36th Division, Yao Zishan, deputy commander-in-chief of the 106th Regiment of the 106th Brigade, and Huang Dongshan, the commander-in-chief of the Cavalry Regiment, serves as chief of staff!"

"The commander-in-chief of the Blue Side is Major Liu Tingjie, deputy battalion commander of the 41st Army Pistol Battalion, and Lieutenant Colonel Liang Shaofeng, deputy commander of the Pistol Battalion. He ordered the unit of the Special Forces, led by Major Wei Shaotang, to join the second phase of the exercise!" Feng Yangtian announced the appointment of the commander-in-chief of the Blue Side exercise troops on behalf of the 41st Army.

In addition to Liang Shaofeng, the Lan Commander-in-Chief Liu Tingjie and the Deputy Commander-in-Chief Major Wei Shaotang attended the meeting.

"We consider that the Blue Army is weak, so in the exercise plan, the Blue Army is the main defense and the Red Army is the main attack. The two sides have reached an agreement on this, so I won't go into details." Zhang Zhongji continued to speak.

"According to the exercise plan, the second phase of the exercise will officially start at 9:00 tomorrow morning. Have the troops of both red and blue been deployed to their locations, have they received food and ammunition supplies? There are still things that have not been received and what is missing. You can now ask for something after this point, and it won't work!"

"It's cold at night, and our soldiers don't have enough blankets to keep the cold. We need at least five hundred blankets?" Liu Tingjie was the first to stand up.

"Are there still five hundred blankets?"

"There is no well at the stronghold, where does our drinking water come from?" Wei Shaotang asked.

"You can solve this yourself. There is a water source near the base. You can send someone to get the water!" Zhang Zhongji replied.

"One of our radio stations was broken. Can we add one?"

"Yes, but you have to exchange for a broken radio!"

"The problem of food and grass, now we are only equipped with only three days to eat. Can we increase it, such as one week, so that we don't have to worry about food and grass?"

"Haha, no, in war, food and grass are issues that commanders must consider, and there are many examples of war failure due to insufficient food and grass. So, if we all help you solve the logistics problems, how can you test your abilities?"

"If you don't have food and grass, you can find a way to steal or rob. This can only be limited to your opponents. Of course, if you have the ability to grab the Japanese, we will be optimistic." Zhang Zhongji said.

"Ha ha……"

"It's not a joke. If you really have this ability, the director team will be your military achievements!" Zhang Zhongji said seriously and seriously.

"The Japanese aren't that stupid, are they?"

"I don't know, I would like to remind you that although you are in an exercise and our troops are escorting around you, we cannot be taken lightly. We are under the eyes and noses of the Japanese!"

"Yes, understand!"

"Reiterate that regarding the issue of captives, any party is injured or surrendered, which is considered to be automatically disengaged from the exercise. The other party has the obligation to rescue and protect. It cannot cause wanton harm or discard it. Once discovered, no matter who it is, it will be held accountable and severely punished!"

"What if we need to get information from prisoners?"

"You can interrogate, but you cannot torture the confession. In particular, you must ensure the safety of the lives of the injured. This is the bottom line!"

"Wouldn't it be difficult to obtain information from the prisoners in this way?"

"If it's an enemy, then what you do, but we are friendly forces now, but you are opponents in the exercise, not real opponents, and they are actually the same to both of you. This is fair, right?"

"Team leader Zhang is right, Tingjie, there is no need to continue discussing this issue!" Feng Yangtian hurriedly signaled Liu Tingjie not to bother with this issue.

Physical punishment and torture are common in the army, but the regulations of the Dongbang do not allow these, especially for one's own people.
