Chapter 31: Crying
"Let's go, get out of here." Leaving Lijiapu, this is the only answer given by Tang Cheng, although I don't know why the Japanese army is so interested in this Li Jiapu, but Tang Cheng knows that the Japanese soldiers who were forced to withdraw from Li Jiapu will not be good at resting, if they know that there are only a dozen scarred guerrillas left in Lijiapu, they will definitely fight back immediately. "You can't stay here, the ground of Li's shop is not suitable for holding, and the evacuated Japanese soldiers will fight back at any time, you have only this little person left, and you will definitely not be able to stop them."
The guerrillas suffered a catastrophe, the two captains were all killed, and the morale was already low to the lowest point, and Tang Cheng, who listened to it, frankly said that only retreating was the best policy, but the few guerrillas under Miao Changsheng who originally did not have a good impression of Tang Cheng did not say anything this time. "Company commander, there's still a living mouth here." In front of these guerrillas, Lao Dongbei began to call Tang Cheng an official position, and Tang Cheng was surprised and puzzled by Lao Northeast's knowledge.
Old Northeast was busy collecting bullets, and pulled out a Japanese soldier who was still alive under a collapsed low wall. When Torizuka was dragged out of the brick and stone pile by Lao Northeast, he still didn't come back to his senses, and when Tang Cheng asked him in Japanese, Torizuka, who was confused in his mind, just subconsciously answered Tang Cheng's question, which made Lao Northeast think that this stupid-looking devil soldier was really real.
After carefully asking Torizuka, Tang Cheng finally got the answer he wanted, but this answer sounded a little laughable, and these Japanese soldiers who attacked Li Jiapu were lost. After infiltrating the river, they were supposed to recruit a group of bandits who were active in the vicinity of Huahu Town, but after crossing the river, their guide was accidentally poisoned by a snake bite and died.
The Japanese army crossed the river to carry out an infiltration mission, so the Japanese outpost that discovered Lijiapu originally wanted to disguise himself as bandits and find a few Chinese who were familiar with the terrain to lead the way for him, but he did not expect that there was a guerrilla living in Lijiapu. After a fierce battle, not only did the guide not be captured, but the two squads of Japanese soldiers disguised as bandits also died in Li's shop. The squad was only more than 60 people, and this time there was no one-third, and the officer commanding the squad was not happy, so he thought about slaughtering the village to vent his anger, if it wasn't for Tang Cheng inadvertently killing their commander with a grenadier, maybe the entire Li Jiapu would have been slaughtered by these Japanese soldiers.
"How many of these little devils are here? We killed a squad on the Tugang side, why is it that this side is also a squad? "The old Northeast has not experienced the Battle of Nanjing, so naturally he doesn't understand the tactics of the Japanese army sending a small force to carry out infiltration operations before the war, and Tang Cheng will not have the time to explain so much to the old Northeast, now that the matter has been figured out, Tang Cheng, who just said that he was going to retreat, has changed his mind.
Tie Niu followed Tang Cheng to ambush dozens of Japanese soldiers in Tugang, and naturally knew that Tang Cheng was a man who could fight, but he never thought that this guy, who was much younger than himself, would actually speak the bird language of a little devil. Tang Cheng didn't expect to get more information from the mouth of an ordinary soldier, although he knew that the number of Japanese soldiers attacking Li Jiapu was not much, but Tang Cheng still insisted on retreating, and the dozen or so guerrillas not only lost their morale, but also wounded one by one, such a state was not the opponent of the Japanese army at all.
"Then we're all gone, what will happen to the people in the village? You can't throw them to the little devils, can you? The guerrillas, who had rested for a while, regained their strength a little, and immediately some people began to refute the construction of Tang City. It's just that this kind of rebuttal was not ignored by Tang Cheng at all, he just wanted to take Lao Dongbei and Liu Shi to continue to march towards Chongqing, as for giving advice to these guerrillas, it was just Tang Cheng's conscience discovery.
"If you don't want to evacuate, you can take them to Huahu Town, maybe it's safer there, and I'll go south to Huangshi with my people with great fanfare, maybe I can lead those Japanese soldiers away." Tang Cheng's words could not even convince him, and before crossing the river, he had already found information about Huangshi from the Japanese soldiers who attacked and killed. When the Japanese army and the 71st Army were fighting in Xiaojieling, the Japanese army had also launched an attack on Huangshi, which is why Tang Cheng asked reporters to cross the river.
Lao Dongbei didn't care about Tang Cheng's decision, but the surviving guerrillas were divided into two factions, the five people led by Tie Niu and Gouzi wanted to follow Tang Cheng, while the guerrillas under Miao Changsheng wanted to stay in Lijiapu. "You fucking fools, we can't stop the little devils tied together, just a few of you can keep the Li family's shop? Don't fucking dream, listen to our company commander, hurry up and take someone to Huahu Town. "Old Northeast is as ridiculous as possible to those who voluntarily stay.
"Forget it, our delay is not too short, pack some weapons and ammunition, we should also leave." Seeing that Lao Northeast had the meaning of becoming more and more addicted the more he scolded, Tang Cheng hurriedly urged Lao Northeast to take Tie Niu and a few of them to find weapons and ammunition. The mortars with strong firepower, Tang Cheng was still not interested, but let Tie Niu and them all replace the Japanese army's 38 rifles, and the 5 38 rifles that jumped out of dozens of guns were definitely the latest and best.
"Company Commander Tang, we really have to leave, but let's go, what should we do when the little devil comes? Those people in the village, we really don't care? They had already walked out of the village, and Tie Niu, who was carrying a new gun, still kept asking Tang Cheng. Regarding the problem of the iron bull, Tang Cheng was also very helpless, he left the village with Hill, and the guerrillas under Miao Changsheng alone would definitely not be able to stop the Japanese army, but if Tang Cheng was taking Lao Dongbei and Liu Shishi to rush to death knowing that he was invincible, he couldn't do it.
From the day they really began to put on military uniforms, Xie Bo and Liu Goat taught Tang Cheng the way of survival that only veterans can figure out. If you can fight, you can fight, and if you can't fight, you will retreat, this is something that Liu Goat spent a lot of time teaching Tang Cheng, and he has proved the meaning of these 9 words for Tang Cheng more than once with actual battle examples. What Liu Shanyang said about retreating did not mean that Tang Cheng should flee when he encountered the enemy, but that Tang Cheng should learn to stay sober and take the initiative to retreat to find fighters when he was at a disadvantage, and as long as the time came, he would use all his strength to break the enemy with one blow.
At the moment, it is the kind of situation that Liu Goat said, knowing that he is invincible and still forcibly sticks to Li's shop, the final result is nothing more than a crushing victory for Tangcheng's side or being killed by the Japanese army. In a village like Lijiapo, which does not occupy a geographical advantage, with less than 20 wounded guerrillas to fight the same number of Japanese troops, Tang Cheng has not been arrogant to such an extent, he does not want to lose his life here or be left alone, and now Tang Cheng is no longer used to being alone.
"Wait, you guys wait first." Not far after they walked out of Tangcheng, the dozen or so guerrillas who volunteered to stay in Lijiapu chased after them with shouts and screams, and Lao Dongbei thought they were looking for trouble, so he pulled the bolt to put the bullet on fire, as long as he pulled the trigger, Lao Dongbei could guarantee that he could kill them with the light machine gun in his hand with only one face. The guerrillas who chased out of the village were still carrying a self-made stretcher, and the two sides were closer, and only then did they find that the stretcher was made of Song Tieshan, who had been rumored to have died in battle.
"I'm a Hubei Yankee, a Hubei Yankee nine-headed bird, we all have nine lives." Although Song Tieshan on the stretcher could still speak, his extremely pale face already explained the problem, and Song Tieshan was definitely not lightly injured. "I was shot in the chest, but my life was hard, the little ghost sent by Hades didn't accept me, they thought I was dead, but in fact I just went on my back." After being shot in the chest, he could still live, Lao Dongbei couldn't help but be very interested in Song Tieshan, and he couldn't wait to peel off the strip of cloth on Song Tieshan's upper body to see the gun hole.
"Company Commander Tang, I know that you are a person who can fight, and you have all seen it, the guerrillas have been disabled, and many people have died in the village, but there are still villagers alive, as long as there are people alive, we guerrillas will protect them. You are the people of the national army, and the national army is also fighting devils, you can't watch the little devils kill the people, can you stay and help us? In the face of Song Tieshan's words that were close to pleading, Tang Cheng did not speak.
From the moment he saw Song Tieshan, Tang Cheng had already guessed what Song Tieshan was chasing out of the village for, but the guerrillas were too weak, and Tang Cheng really didn't have the confidence to lead them to fight the Japanese army. "Company Commander Tang, I can see that you are a well-read person and a sensible person, it will be dark soon, and those villagers can't walk at night even if they want to go to Huahu Town, not to mention anything else, as long as you can take people who can still fight until dawn." Seeing that Tang Cheng was silent, Song Tieshan had no choice but to say frankly that as long as Tang Cheng helped the guerrillas stay in Lijiapu for tonight.
Song Tieshan had already lowered his voice, but when he first saw him in the morning, he was already completely two attitudes, Tang Cheng still didn't say anything, but subconsciously turned his head to look at Lao Dongbei and Liu Shishi. Tang Cheng can control his own fate, but he has no right to make decisions for Lao Dongbei and Liu Shishi, Lao Northeast still looks like he doesn't care, but Liu Shishi, whose eyes are slightly red, nodded lightly to Tang Cheng, saying that he is willing to help the guerrillas.
"It's okay if you want me to stay, but you have to make sure that your men are under my command, and that we'll only help you until dawn, after which we'll leave." With the approval of Lao Dongbei and Liu Shishi, Tang Cheng agreed, and Song Tieshan finally loosened the corners of Tang Cheng's clothes.
