"Are you really a deserter?"

"yes."

"Not really."

Xiaodao, Lin Heng, and Lao Xing went north along the Tongqing Highway. Lao Xing led the way in front, and Xiaodao and Lin Heng chatted in the back.

"What's your name?"

"Knives?"

"How old are you?"

“20。”

"Who was that person before?"

"Squad leader."

"Want to join our New Fourth Army?"

"I don't want to."

"Why? Our New Fourth Army is fine, officers and soldiers are equal......"

Lin Heng kept asking and kept saying that the New Fourth Army was good. She only wanted to pull Shao Fei and them into the ranks of the New Fourth Army. , but the knife loves to ignore it.

"Comrade Knife, you speak. You have such a good physical condition, what a pity if you don't kill devils as soldiers. It is everyone's responsibility to resist Japan and save the country. ”

"I'm afraid of death."

At this time, Lao Xing turned to the knife and said, "Little brother, it's useless to be afraid of death." Even if you don't serve as a soldier, the devil will rush over and kill you. It's better to pick up a gun and them, like a Chinese man. ”

Lin Heng praised: "It's still Lao Xing's high ideological consciousness."

Knife ignored it and continued to go his own way.

Shao Fei had warned himself before not to be too nice to women. He is too charming, and it is easy for a woman to fall in love with him, so Xiaodao didn't pay much attention to Lin Heng along the way.

"Hide."

Lao Xing waved his hand and shouted. The three of them hurriedly hid in the grass on the side of the road.

On the road ahead, there are more than a dozen devil sappers filling in the pits and building the road, and these big pits are the masterpieces of the New Fourth Army.

Lao Xing said: "It seems that we can't get by, let's take a detour."

The knife came out of the grass and walked forward.

Lin Heng shouted softly: "The knife is back~"

Knife ignored it and continued to swagger forward.

"What are you working on?"

The two sentries pointed their guns at the knife, which replied in Japanese, "My own people, I went to the front to reconnoitre."

"Yoxi~"

The two devils completely relaxed their vigilance, and one slapped the knife and said with a smile: "It's hard work."

The knife sneered, quickly removed the bayonet from the muzzle of a devil with his right hand, directly slit the throat of one person while he was unprepared, and then stabbed the bayonet sideways into the chest of another devil.

Before the two devils could see each other's movements, they spurted blood on the spot and died.

Then, the knife quickly ran towards the sapper ranks. Those sappers didn't have time to pick up their weapons, and they fought desperately with shovels and knives in their hands. After all, there was only one person on the other side, and some sappers didn't bother to run to the side of the road to get weapons.

Not long after the fight, the sappers began to regret it. The knife kills left and stabs right like a gang of ghosts, its movements are fast and powerful, the knife is bloody, and the knife is deadly. A dozen or so sappers were powerless to parry, and there was not much left to kill.

The last two sappers were about to run to get their weapons, when suddenly a bayonet flew over and stabbed one of them in the back, and the other devil was caught up by the knife and broke his neck from behind.

After finishing the matter, the knife waved at Lin Heng and them, and the second dared to stand up and look at the knife from a distance.

Lao Xing exclaimed: "Good girl, is he still human?"

Lin Heng exclaimed: "Mom, is he still a deserter?"

The two walked over and looked at the corpse on the first and were stunned again, and then Lin Heng pushed the knife hard and asked, "Who are you?"

Knife laughed: "Deserter." I killed them, but I didn't want your New Fourth Army to destroy the road in vain. ”

Lin Heng retorted: "Nonsense! You're not a deserter at all. ”

"Believe it or not, gone."

"Wait, the weapon is gone."

The knife turned around and said disdainfully, "Just a few broken guns?"

"Broken guns!" Lin Heng's eyes widened like light bulbs, and he pointed to the side of the road and said, "That's a 38 steel gun."

"I know, the problem is that you can't take it." The knife walked up to Lin Heng and whispered in his ear, "You forgot that there are two companies of yours behind you, they will deal with it."

Lao Xing was excited, picked up a rifle on the side of the road and kept fiddling, and said excitedly: "This is the 38 big cover, it's quite heavy."

"Beware of misfire." The knife took it and closed the insurance, and said, "I've sent you, don't worry about anything else, let's go."

"Okay, okay."

Lao Xing slung the gun on his shoulder and walked in front like a soldier. Lin Heng followed.

The sky was getting darker, and it was not a good time to collect the bandits now, so Lao Xing took the two of them to his house and asked his wife to make dinner for them.

Lao Xing didn't have the heart to eat at all, and he couldn't put down the gun in his hand.

Xiaodao asked while eating: "Aren't you bandits, why haven't you even seen a gun?" Also, Lao Xing, didn't you flee, how can you still have such a virtuous sister-in-law? ”

Lao Xing's wife said: "Where are they bandits, they are a group of homeless people gathered together. If they don't have anything to eat, they go to Qili and Eight Villages to grab things, so the villagers call them bandits. There are three sects and nine streams in it, Lao Xing is a sincere person, and he is unwilling to give up those brothers who have gathered because of him. I'm a woman, so I can't stay there, so I've made a home here. ”

"Cough~" Lao Xing put down the gun and sighed: "It's difficult~ I don't want to harm the villagers, but what can I do if I don't rob them, I can't watch them starve to death."

Lao Xing's wife complained: "What are they doing one by one, they have to shoot the people's things."

Lao Xing said: "What do women know? What can this soldier do, if he goes out, he will die. To be a man, you have to live and understand, and now I understand that in this world, you have to carry guns, eat food, and fight devils. Also, you man, I'm not stupid, why didn't I take my brother to the national army and run to find the New Fourth Army, because the New Fourth Army can treat the people as its own family,"

Lin Heng said with a smile: "I'll just say that Lao Xing has a high level of ideological awareness. Our New Fourth Army is a team of poor people, fighting the world for the people, and the officers and soldiers are equal, which is like the national army, hum~"

Lin Heng white-eyed the knife, and thought that he was a national army.

"Hmph~" The knife also deliberately snorted and continued to eat.

At night, Lao Xing stood guard outside the house with a gun, let Lin Heng sleep in the same room with his wife, and asked Xiaodao to sleep in the outhouse.

At this time, the door cloth in the inner room was lifted, and Lin Heng walked out of it. Xiaodao knew that she had come to persuade herself to join the New Fourth Army.

Xiao Dao made it all of a sudden, and said, "You can talk about anything, except for letting me join the New Fourth Army."

Lin Heng sat down next to Xiaodao and asked with concern: "Lao Xing knows why he is alive, why can't you figure it out?"

"People can't walk two paths."

"But you're dead. You are so good, can you come to our New Fourth Army? If you don't agree, I'll be annoyed until you agree. ”

Knife lowered his head and smiled, but did not answer again.

Lin Heng also lowered his head, a little lost, and said, "I know you look down on the New Fourth Army. In fact, we are also quite difficult, the equipment is poor, and the quality of the soldiers is even worse. To put it mildly, it is a ragtag army, which only gathers the guerrillas scattered everywhere, and we are not at all comparable to the Eighth Route Army in the north. ”

Lin Heng was telling the truth, the New Fourth Army and the Eighth Route Army could not be compared at all. One is a regular Red Army unit composed of the 1st, 2nd, and 4th Front Armies of the Red Army; One is a guerrilla force scattered all over the south of the Yangtze River, and the foundation is also the little-known Red 28th Army, which has no combat effectiveness at all.

The woman was lost and sad, so he said, "That's not what I meant. My bar is not a dead end, and I live better than anyone else. Although our roads are different, the direction is the same. ”

Lin Heng looked up at the knife, with a little expectation in his eyes, and asked, "What do you mean, aren't you the Kuomintang?"

"I can't say."

"Tell me, okay? I promise not to tell anyone. ”

"You swear."

Lin Heng raised his hand and said, "I swear." If I say it, I won't be able to marry for the rest of my life. ”

Xiaodao breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I am the Eighth Route Army." The position should be at the battalion level now, and you should call me the chief. ”

Lin Heng suddenly became anxious and said, "You are talking nonsense! How could the Eighth Route Army come to southern Anhui, you are so young that you don't have a single soldier under your command, and you are still at the battalion level? ”

Knife explained: "I'm not talking nonsense. I am from the Shuangfei Brigade of the Yanbei Detachment. There is a special combat team in the brigade that is at the same level as the brigade, and now the brigade has been expanded into a regiment, and I am the leader of the detachment, so naturally it is at the battalion level. ”

Lin Heng was completely excited, and said, "I've heard of the Shuangfei Brigade, and I don't even dare to mess with the devils." One is called Zhao Fei and the other is Shao Fei. Are you really the one there, and is the Double Flying Brigade really strong? ”

The knife nodded, a little smug, and said, "It's okay." One of our companies had eight grenadiers, eight light machine guns, and two heavy machine guns. The soldiers were all Japanese equipment. We once fought with a wing of the Japanese army, and we won the battle. ”

Xiao Dao turned from a smug expression to a sad expression, and said, "We have won many battles, all of which were commanded by Shao Fei. However, in the battle of Yuwang Mountain, he was killed. I'm so sad. ”

Lin Heng slapped the knife and comforted: "I heard, don't be sad about the knife."

The knife hugged Lin Heng, leaned on her shoulder, and pretended to cry: "I'm really sad and sad, I miss my captain, he died so miserably~"

Lin Heng gently pushed Xiao away, and under the dim light, Xiao Dao's grief-stricken expression could be vaguely seen, and his heart was uncomfortable. Then he asked, "What are you doing in southern Anhui?" And who is the captain? ”

Xiaodao adjusted his mood and said, "You know the peculiarity of our team, this is a high military secret. I gave away my identity to you, and I'm going to shoot me if I let that damn captain know. You swore it. ”

Lin Heng hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't ask, don't ask."

"Shall I be quiet, then? Mourn my dead captain. ”

"Okay, the festival mourns and changes~"

"Yes."

Lin Heng got up and went back to his room, while Xiaodao just smiled, lay down and continued to sleep.
