Chapter 108 This is simply the strongest assist!
Zhang Qingming was confused:
"I don't know. I just reported that Miyato Kubo was dead and the mission was completed."
"The report also mentioned the significant assistance Captain Qin provided us during this mission."
"At the end, I reported to the higher-ups, saying that if it weren't for Captain Qin's tremendous help, the mission would have been impossible to complete. So I strongly recommended that Captain Qin be commended."
"Yes, yes."
Wang Xinyi also said:
"I've also read the report my eldest brother wrote to the higher-ups. Apart from what he just said, there's nothing else."
"Oh? That's interesting."
Qin Long became interested:
"Now is the time for cooperation between the two sides. Since they are here, we have to receive them."
"Wait a minute, we'll know if they're really here to cause trouble."
A few minutes later.
A team of national army soldiers arrived at the entrance of Shitou Village with serious expressions.
Qin Long roughly counted them, 30 people, a platoon.
And the equipment is pretty good, everyone has a submachine gun.
After these 30 Nationalist soldiers arrived at the village entrance and stood still, a Nationalist soldier wearing an officer's uniform stepped forward and came in front of Qin Long and others.
Qin Long was about to greet this person, but he seemed to have not seen Qin Long and others, and walked directly in front of Zhang Qingming:
"Zhang Qingming!"
"To!"
Seeing that the other party's military rank was higher than his, Zhang Qingming immediately stood at attention and shouted.
The soldier did not introduce himself, but took out a piece of paper from his pocket and read:
"According to orders from higher-ups! Zhang Qingming neglected his duties during the mission, leading to its failure! He also collaborated with the Eighth Route Army's local armed forces without authorization, and is suspected of collaborating with the Communists!"
"Order! Remove Zhang Qingming from his position as platoon leader immediately and execute him on the spot!"
"what?!"
Wang Xinyi was stunned when he heard the content of the order!
"Sir, are you mistaken? Miyato Kubo is dead! My brother has completed his mission!"
"And! If it weren't for Captain Qin's help, we wouldn't even be able to complete the mission, let alone survive!"
"Besides, we're currently in a period of cooperation between the two parties. My brother's cooperation with Captain Qin is in compliance with policy. How can it possibly involve collaborating with the Communist Party?"
"Who do you think you are?! What qualifications do you have to question the orders of your superiors?!"
The Kuomintang officer looked at Wang Xinyi arrogantly and asked.
Wang Xinyi was furious on the spot:
"Listen up! I'm Wang Xinyi, former commander of the artillery regiment of the 72nd Division of the Central Army!"
"Ah!"
But after hearing Wang Xinyi's words, the Kuomintang officer sneered:
"You said it yourself. You were the former commander of the artillery regiment of the 72nd Division of the Central Army, but you're no longer one."
"So who gave you the right to disobey the orders from your superiors?!"
"I see you're hanging out with this Zhang Qingming, so you're probably also suspected of collaborating with the Communists! Just wait for me to report this to the higher-ups, and then you won't be able to escape!"
"Hey!!!"
Wang Xinyi thought to himself, I have a bad temper:
"Brother! We just cooperated with Captain Qin for a while. How can we say we're collaborating with the Communist Party?!"
"We fought the Japs to the death on the front lines, and it's one thing for those people above to not commend you, but to actually convict you?!"
"Anyway, they've charged you with suspected communist collaborators! I think we should just follow Captain Qin! That way, those who are wrongly accused can feel at peace!"
"shut up!"
However, Zhang Qingming scolded Wang Xinyi:
"Wang Xinyi! You were rescued from the prisoner-of-war camp by Qin Long. You were supposed to go wherever you wanted!"
"If you and your brothers want to follow Qin Long, even I can't stop you!"
"But I was sent by the National Army to carry out a mission! Did you just say that to kill me?! Huh?!"
"Even if I didn't hurt you, I would still shoot you on the spot. What's the matter..."
Wang Xinyi knew that the first part of Zhang Qingming's words were all excuses for him and were for his own good, so he didn't get angry and just muttered softly.
Seeing Zhang Qingming glaring at him, Wang Xinyi swallowed the rest of his words back into his stomach...
"Sir, is there some misunderstanding here?"
Turning around, Zhang Qingming said to the National Army officer:
"Could you allow me to report this to the higher-ups again?"
Unexpectedly, the Kuomintang officer threw the order directly in Zhang Qingming's face:
"Misunderstanding?! What misunderstanding?! Aren't the orders from the higher-ups clear enough?!"
"Zhang Qingming! If you're still a member of the National Army, stand still!"
As he said that, the Kuomintang officer pulled out his pistol and was about to shoot Zhang Qingming!
"and many more!"
Qin Long, who had been watching the show, said:
"Isn't your national army too overbearing?"
"Even if we're going to court, shouldn't we give him a chance to defend himself? Are you just going to shoot him straight away?"
To be honest, Qin Long is now madly praising the senior KMT officer who gave this order!
Let’s not talk about the purpose of the high-ranking Kuomintang officer sending people to execute Zhang Qingming.
Just talking about this order itself, it definitely paved a smooth road for Qin Long to keep Zhang Qingming and Wang Xinyi!
This is simply the strongest assist!
He had just heard from Lao Li that Zhang Qingming and Wang Xinyi were leaving, and he couldn't think of any good way to keep them.
As a result, when I felt sleepy, someone gave me a pillow!
Judging from the situation, Wang Xinyi is already very willing to stay, but Zhang Qingming seems not to give up.
So Qin Long decided to add fuel to the fire!
"Who do you think you are?"
The National Army officer glanced at Qin Long and saw that he was not wearing the uniform of the Eighth Route Army like the other four. He then scolded him rudely:
"When did it become your turn as a small-time leader of a local armed force to intervene in the internal affairs of our national army?"
"Comrade of the National Army! Please be careful with your words!"
Ding Wei couldn't stand listening any longer and said seriously:
"Captain Qin is the captain of our Eighth Route Army's Xiaoyangcun District Squad. We are also members of the anti-Japanese armed forces! You have no right to scold him!"
"Correct!"
Cao Yunjun also looked at the Kuomintang officers with displeasure:
"I'm warning you! If you say anything rude to Captain Qin again, don't say we don't give you face!"
Feng Yuan looked even more unfriendly and said bluntly:
"If you keep talking nonsense, I'll be rude to you!"
"Besides! Platoon Leader Zhang was nearly killed by one of your own people! And yet he was only focused on completing the mission assigned to him!"
"Such a good comrade! You actually want to execute him?! Did the person who gave this order get kicked in the head by a donkey or is he filled with water?!"
"You bastard! How dare you insult the commander?!"
The KMT officer got angry on the spot!
He pulled out his gun and pointed it at Feng Yuan!
"Shhhhh!"
Seeing him pointing a gun at Feng Yuan, Ding Wei, Cao Yunjun, Yan Shuangying and Feng Yuan also pulled out their guns and pointed them at the Kuomintang officer!
Upon seeing this, the platoon of Kuomintang soldiers immediately raised their submachine guns and pointed them at Ding Wei and the other three!
"Boom!"
But at this critical moment, a line of tanks drove over from a distance...
