The holiday was limited, and Chen Xiuwen returned to Nanjing from Ningbo the day after his marriage. Although Yu Wenwan was still studying at Jinling Women's University, he came back very rarely and wanted to spend more time with his seriously ill grandmother, but did not go with Shen Xiuwen.

Mr. Shen was very happy to have his youngest son resolved his lifelong affairs. Although Chen Xiuwen and Yu Wenwan were still in school, Mr. Shen still bought a house for them in Nanjing. Although he was not as grand as his elder brother Chen Xiude Mansion, a two-story building that was not very conspicuous was in line with their identities.

Although the couple both went to school in the same city, they did not live in this home. Yu Wenwan usually lives in school and only occasionally returned to their nominal home on holidays. Chen Xiuwen simply looked down on her face and did not go home on weekends. She spent every day in military academy. Only during winter and summer vacations did they pretend to be a loving couple and return to their home in Shanghai, or go to Ningbo to visit Yu Zhantang and Mrs. Yu. At this time, Chen Xiuwen was not like fighting with Yu Wenwan on wedding night, and consciously slapping the floor.

With the successive victory of the fifth anti-encirclement and suppression, the second year of the military academy was not to summarize the anti-encirclement and suppression examples or to use the Red Army as the imaginary enemy to perform war chess. However, in Shen Xiuwen's eyes, these were not interesting at all. However, the commander-in-chief of the Red Army at this time was not Lao Mao, who was a god-like military service, but Li De, who had just graduated from Fulongzhi Military Academy. Moreover, the extremely poorly equipped Red Army as the imaginary enemy, would not have any effect on facing the excellent Japanese army in the future. Therefore, Chen Xiuwen began to read a lot of military information during the First World War in his spare time.

Time flies quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was the autumn of 1934. In more than two years of military school study and life, the name Chen Xiuwen was undoubtedly the most resounding among the entire ninth class of students. Not only is the best in military literacy among students, but also in his active thinking and his academic performance is the best.

The ninth period of the Central Military Academy is about to graduate. According to Chen Xiuwen's academic performance and military literacy, it must be the target of competition among various troops. Moreover, starting this year, the Central Army began to reorganize the army at the suggestion of General Von Seckert, the general counsel of the German general. Many troops have turned their attention to the ninth period students who are about to graduate. After all, the ninth period is the longest study time and the most systematic study period since the founding of Huangpu School. If we follow the rules, the most promising thing for Chen Xiuwen is the most elite Central Military Academy Teaching Corps in the Central Military Academy. However, the ending of the Central Military Academy Teaching Corps in the end in the defense of Nanjing and the fact that Shen Xiuwen himself did not like the general Gui Yongqing, who was very ambitious and talented, made Chen Xiuwen not know how to choose for the time being. Moreover, this is not just for his own considerations, but for Cheng De'an and Tang Lin who have clearly stated where they go.

It happened to be a weekend holiday. Chen Xiuwen did not go out for dinner with Cheng De'an, Zhao Shujiu and others, but instead changed into casual clothes and took out a day off every month to see the terrain in Nanjing. The defense of Nanjing was a pain in the hearts of all Chinese people. In this battle, the five main forces of the Central Army at that time, the 36th Division, the 87th Division, the 88th Division, the Teaching Corps and the 74th Army. Except for the 36th Division and the 74th Army that lost more than half of the losses, the three earliest elite German-armed troops were wiped out. Moreover, after the city of Nanjing was broken, the Japanese army created a tragic Nanjing Massacre, and more than 300,000 soldiers and civilians died under the Japanese butcher knife.

Chen Xiuwen felt that although he might not have the ability to change this history at that time, as a time traveler, he would do his best to save as many military and civilians as possible who should have died under the Japanese butcher knife. Therefore, in the past two years, Chen Xiuwen has basically traveled all over the streets and alleys of Nanjing City and the surrounding Zijin Mountain, Qixia Ridge, Yuhuatai, Zhonghuamen and other important battlefields for fighting with the Japanese army in the future.

When Chen Xiuwen was wandering on the streets of Nanjing, he suddenly had a heavy pat on his shoulder behind him, and a sound that sounded familiar to him shouted loudly: "Xuwen, Chen Xiuwen."

Chen Xiuwen turned his head and saw an officer in front of him looking at him with surprise. When he saw this officer Chen Xiuwen was also surprised and said, "Company Commander Zhu, why is it you?"

This officer was Zhu Chi, the company commander of the 3rd Company of the 1st Battalion of the 528th Regiment of the 264th Brigade of the 88th Division, who fought side by side with Shen Xiuwen during the defensive battle in the temple. However, when Chen Xiuwen saw that Zhu Chi had two bars and two triangle stars on his collar, he hurriedly smiled and said, "Oh, no. What should I call you now? Is it Battalion Commander Zhu or Zhu's Priest?"

"Haha." Zhu Chi touched the shiny lieutenant colonel rank on his collar and said with a smile: "On average, average, he is just a deputy regiment commander. By the way, how could you be in Nanjing Xiuwen? I didn't even dare to recognize him at first sight."

"I am a student of the Central Military Academy now. I'm not a weekend today, so I'm going to go out for a walk." Chen Xiuwen replied with a smile.

"Central Military Academy, the ninth period?" Zhu Chi couldn't help but widen her eyes and said in surprise when she heard that Chen Xiuwen was actually a student of the Central Military Academy.

"Yes, the ninth phase of recruitment of enlisted soldiers will be graduated in half a month."

"Then come to my place." Zhu Chi seemed to have discovered a treasure, and quickly grabbed Chen Xiuwen's hand and said, "They were all brothers who fought the Japanese together at the temple shop. Come to our group."

Thinking of the afternoon when the smoke was filled with gunpowder at the temple two years ago, Chen Xiuwen was also very excited and said, "Okay, but the specific allocation depends on how the military academy arranges it."

"That's simple. Let our brigade directly ask Chief Zhang for someone. Oh, you don't know about Xiuwen. Our former Commander Huang is now our brigade commander of the 264th June." Zhu Chi said happily when she heard Chen Xiuwen's willingness.

"Is that true? Commander Huang is now a general." Although Chen Xiuwen knew that Huang Meixing would definitely be the major general of the 264th Brigade before the Battle of Songhu, he was still very happy to hear the news.

"No, our voyage is the first phase of Huangpu. It should have been promoted to general as a rule. By the way, Xiuwen, I didn't expect you to be the younger brother of Chief Chen, the General Officer Chen. Later, when I met Chief Chen in Jiangxi, I heard that I was the old subordinate of Chief Chen. During the Northern Expedition, I was the platoon leader of Chief Chen. Why didn't you say that at that time?"

Chen Xiuwen didn't expect that Zhu Chi would be his elder brother's subordinate. He smiled and said, "Brother Zhu, I came to work hard at that time, not for contact. Brother Zhu, are you going back to Nanjing to work or just stationed in Nanjing?"

"Stationed in Nanjing, our division has been ordered to be transferred back to Nanjing since the first half of this year. We are undergoing training from German consultants during this period." Zhu Chi replied with a smile. But then sighed sadly and said, "Since the Battle of Songhu two years ago, our division has been greatly damaged, and was then transferred to Jiangxi to suppress the Communist Party. Then, the Fujian Incident has been pacified. There are not many old brothers coming from the Northern Expedition together. Now Japan is eyeing North China again. In addition to training, we urgently need to add capable officers." As he said, Zhu Chi smiled again and said, "A few days ago, our division and brigade were still thinking about selecting some excellent officers from the graduates of the ninth phase to supplement our division. I didn't expect me to meet one today."

"Brother Zhu, what you need is an excellent officer. I am not an excellent one. Don't regret it if you want me." Chen Xiuwen joked with a smile.

"Xuwen, I dare not say anything else, just because you performed in the temple store back then. You are definitely good. Now, even if you use the first place in the ninth period to change with me, I will not change it." Zhu Chi patted Chen Xiuwen on the shoulder, and said with a very confident look. Then she grabbed Chen Xiuwen without saying anything, and said with a smile: "Xuwen, don't say anything, you are going to make a reservation. I will go to our hike tomorrow. Let's go to my house, let's have a good drink, your sister-in-law can cook a good dish."

This unexpected reunion with Zhu Chi made Chen Xiuwen determined to go to the 88th Division after graduation. Although the 88th Division was almost wiped out in Nanjing City three years, like the teaching corps. However, Chen Xiuwen was confident that he could survive, and he had to save more brothers from the 88th Division and allow this elite army to make more important contributions in the future War of Resistance Against Japan.

The next day, Zhu Chi reported to Huang Meixing about Chen Xiuwen's situation, and at the same time, according to the request made by Chen Xiuwen, they added Cheng Dean and Tang Lin. Huang Meixing heard that Chen Xiuwen was a student of the ninth class of the Central Military Academy, without saying a word, and immediately went to the Central Military Academy to find General Zhang, the education chief responsible for the executive work of the military academy.

"Oh, Huang Meixing, you actually ran to me and spoke up. You asked these three best students in my ninth class at once." General Zhang opened his mouth wide and said when he heard the three names reported by Huang Meixing.

When Huang Meixing heard Chen Xiuwen and others commenting on General Zhang, he was very happy and pleaded: "Old Master, Chen Xiuwen fought side by side with us at the temple shop. At that time, if he hadn't been a college student, I would have recruited him into the army. Besides, he himself was willing to come to our 88th Division. Old Master, you also know that from the Battle of Songhu to the Suppression of Bandits in Jiangxi to the Punishment of Fujian, our 88th Division rushed to the forefront. Therefore, we had the greatest casualties, especially my 264th Brigade. There were not many old brothers who had fought with us in the Northern Expedition back then, and we urgently needed to replenish fresh blood to revive the magnificence of our 88th Division."

Huang Meixing was not only a student of General Zhang, but also had been under General Zhang's command since the Eastern Expedition. General Zhang knew what he said, especially during the temple battle in the Battle of Songhu, which General Zhang personally directed, the 528th Regiment where Huang Meixing was originally located had almost more than 80% of the casualties, and the officers below the battalion were basically replaced. After pondering for a while, General Zhang finally sighed and said, "Okay, when I graduate, I will consider assigning them to your division. However, you must also coordinate with your division commander Sun and be careful of being made for others' wedding dress."

Of course, Huang Meixing could hear that the old commander was still very good at taking care of him, so he quickly saluted General Zhang happily and said, "Don't worry, elder commander, I know what I think. Thank you, elder commander."

General Zhang sighed and smiled bitterly, "Today it is Huang Meixing. If someone else changes me, I will never assign these three people to your 88th Division at the same time. It would be great if I could give you one. I can tell you that in the graduation exam half a month later, Chen Xiuwen will definitely be in the top three, and as for Cheng De'an and Tang Lin, there will probably not be any other ten. These three outstanding graduates have given you the 88th Division. At that time, I will be honest (Gui Yongqing, the commander of the Central Military Academy’s teaching corps, and I don’t know how to call me a fuss."
