Chapter 20: Untitled
As the old saying goes, if you get up early and go out and meet the magpie calling, good things are bound to come to your door. Xiao Haishan has been worried about Lu Yuan since he left Xiaojia Village with 10 people from his direct team, for fear that something would happen to Lu Yuan and his party. But today, Xiao Haishan, who had been sad for many days, finally had a smile, because the people he sent out had finally contacted the underground party organization in the county, and the Eighth Route Army had sent a small detachment to help train the Xiaojia Village guerrillas.
Hearing the magpie cry again early in the morning, Xiao Haishan's mood suddenly improved a lot, and he even looked at the tiger and tiger with a lot of spirit. According to the training plan left by Lu Yuan before leaving, Xiao Haishan has been training the guerrillas in the past few days in the queue and shooting, but as for the stabbing listed as a key training item by the Eighth Route Army, the Xiaojiacun guerrillas have not practiced. The fact that the Xiaojiacun guerrillas do not train in stabbing does not mean that Xiao Haishan does not know the importance of practicing stabbing, but that the Xiaojiacun guerrillas have just been established, and those members who can practice shooting accurately are already very good.
Before lunch, the guerrillas' training in the morning was over, and just when Xiao Haishan's whole team was about to give a training evaluation, the Eighth Route Army detachment that he had been looking forward to happened to enter the village. The Eighth Route Army squad is a squad formation, and the leader is called Xu Heizi, who is a platoon commander of the Eighth Route Army, and most of the squad he brought are veterans of the Eighth Route Army, and there are 5 squad leaders alone. "Platoon Commander Xu, we are looking forward to the stars and the moon, and we have finally brought you here." Xiao Haishan, who greeted Xu Heizi and the others, couldn't stop the smile on his face, and the guerrillas who followed him were also full of joy.
"Captain Xiao, after receiving the order from our superiors, we will set off immediately, if it weren't for some trouble on the way, maybe we would have been able to get here yesterday." Xu Heizi is also a person who speaks neatly, stretching out his hand and holding Xiao Haishan tightly, and there is also a sense of affection in his words. The Eighth Route Army sent a squad of veterans to help the guerrillas in Xiaojia Village, and Xiao Haishan, who was overjoyed, immediately arranged a place to live in the village, and the villagers who learned the news also gathered around to see the demeanor of the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army, and the entrance of the village was soon filled with people.
Xiaojia Village is so enthusiastic, this is what Xu Heizi and they didn't expect at all, Xu Heizi jumped directly on the big grinding plate at the entrance of the village, and publicized the anti-Japanese policy of the Eighth Route Army to the villagers of Xiaojia Village in public. It's just that when Xu Heizi talked about the preferential treatment of prisoners, including Japanese prisoners who laid down their arms, the people of Xiaojia Village had different opinions. "Comrade Xu, my old man has lived for most of his life, although he has never studied, but when he was young, he also went to the provincial capital and saw some of the world." An old man with gray temples walked up to Xu Heizi on crutches.
"That little devil came to our country to burn and loot, this is not what we invited them to come, the little devil killed so many of our people, why should we treat them preferentially? As the old saying goes, if you owe money to pay off your debts, you can pay for your life, and the little devils killed our people in our territory, so you should exchange their lives for them. I, Xiao Chenggui, don't know what righteousness is, I only know that there are grievances and grievances and revenge, not to mention that the devil soldiers put down their weapons, even if they jump into the sea now and want to swim back to their island, we still have to kill what we should kill. ”
"Our Xiaojia Village is an Orion Village, and some land is planted around the village, but every time before the autumn harvest, wild boars in the mountains will come down in groups to harm those crops. What to do? Do we want to watch our crops be destroyed by wild boars? Naturally, it is impossible, only if those wild boars are afraid of hurting, they will not dare to harm our crops in the future. I feel that little devils and wild boars are almost the same scourge, since they are scourges, we can't be soft, let them know that they are afraid, these damn little devils will not think of bullying us again in the future. ”
Xiao Chenggui's words immediately attracted the echo of the villagers, even Xu Heizi, who couldn't find the right words to refute Xiao Chenggui's words for a while, so he had to jump off the mill with a black face. "Platoon Commander Xu, don't pay too much attention to it, my second uncle's words don't sound bad. This little devil came to our house to kill people and set fires, that is damned, if we want to treat them preferentially, I'm afraid it's not easy to do, especially the people in the village will not agree. Although Xiao Haishan was bent on bringing the Xiaojia Village guerrillas under the command of the garbage, Xiao Haishan also had the same attitude as Xiao Chenggui when it came to giving preferential treatment to prisoners.
While everyone was gathering around the entrance of the village and talking endlessly, the news tree standing on the hill outside the village was suddenly toppled down. The news tree was knocked down, indicating that someone had come from outside the village, and Xiao Haishan immediately ordered the guerrillas to assemble, and Xu Heizi noticed that the Xiaojia Village guerrillas were equipped with Yishui's Japanese-style 38 rifles. "Lao Xiao, yes, you can use the authentic 38 big cover." Xu Heizi also moved out of the village with his soldiers, and at the same time showed his envy for the guerrillas in Xiaojia Village.
"What's this..."Xiao Haishan proudly showed off to Xu Heizi, "In the secret warehouse of our village, there are at least sixty or seventy such rifles, we don't have a suitable machine gunner, otherwise you can still see machine guns." Xiao Haishan spoke, but the speed under his feet was not slow, and the two groups of people quickly ran up the hill at the entrance of the village along the mountain road. Looking into the distance from the hill, I saw a large group of people walking by the small river not very far from the village.
Xu Heizi was about to order his soldiers to prepare for shooting, but Xiao Haishan, who was lying beside him, had already put down the binoculars in his hand and stood up, "Platoon Commander Xu, it's okay, that's our own people." Xiao Haishan's words made Xu Heizi confused, he clearly saw in the telescope that at least half of those people were carrying guns, could it be that the Xiaojia Village guerrillas already had such a scale?
found that it was his own people, Xiao Haishan immediately went down from the hill with people, and Xu Heizi and others also followed. When the people came closer, Xu Heizi found that among the people on the other side, there were actually people carrying light machine guns and grenadiers, which made him even more surprised. "Captain, we're back, let's see the big guy we've captured." A grinning man walked over quickly and stuffed the mortar he was carrying to Xiao Haishan.
"Mr. Lu said, this thing is called a mortar, it is a small cannon that can hit a long distance, and it is very powerful. It's just a pity that we only got back five shells of this small cannon, and when the shells run out, this thing is useless. The man who spoke did not hide his disappointment at all, but Xu Heizi, who was standing beside Xiao Haishan, heard a vigorous tooth, it was already very good to have five shells, even in the front-line troops of the Eighth Route Army, only regiment-level combat units could have mortars.
"What about Mr. Lu? Why haven't you seen Huzi yet? Xiao Haishan, who was also smiling, fiddled with the mortar for a while, and then began to look for Lu Yuan and Huzi in the crowd. The man who gave Xiao Haishan a mortar, only then did he whisper a few words in Xiao Haishan's ear, Xiao Haishan nodded immediately, and stopped looking for Lu Yuan and Huzi.
"Captain Xu, more than 20 miles away from our village, there is a valley occupied by little devils. Our men secretly beat them once last night, and these weapons and ammunition are the trophies captured last night, but we still have some people who have not returned, and I am going to take them to meet them. If you're okay, you can bring them with you, and maybe there's a lot of loot to bring back later. Xiao Haishan said this a little clueless, but Xu Heizi didn't ask, just nodded and agreed.
The direct team that had just returned with the loot returned to the village with the rescued laborers to repair, Xiao Haishan rushed with the guerrillas to pick up Lu Yuan and the two, and Xu Heizi naturally took her people to join in the fun. Following the route of the return of the direct team, Xiao Haishan and his party walked out of more than 20 miles along the mountain road, and finally appeared in a place separated from the valley by a dirt mountain, and the sound of gunfire and explosions had not completely stopped in the place separated by a mountain.
Xu Heizi fought bravely and was a person who liked to fight tough battles, and when he heard the gunfire before he stopped, he ordered his soldiers to prepare for battle. Everyone quickly went up the hillside to the top of the mountain, and then they could see the situation on the back side of the mountain clearly, and in the rumbling explosion, dozens of Japanese puppet soldiers, under the command of the officer, howled and launched an attack on the opposite side of the mountain. It's just that I don't know why, the Japanese puppet soldiers who are attacking have been rolling down the hillside with blood.
Xu Heizi looked at the binoculars for a long time, but he didn't find who was confronting these Japanese puppet soldiers, and he didn't find out where the people who injured and killed those Japanese puppet soldiers were. "Don't worry, let's take a look first, anyway, this will be the little devil and the yellow dog who are suffering." Xiao Haishan could see it, and while observing the situation in the valley, he ordered his guerrillas to be careful and hide and wait for changes.
There was a muffled sound of "bang", and a Japanese officer at the foot of the mountain seemed to be cut by a big guillotine knife, and the whole person was cut in two from the waist. Xu Heizi, who was amazed, looked at the dust rising from the opposite hill from a distance with a telescope, and then realized that the person who fired the gun should be in the place where the dust appeared. "Bang" In Xu Heizi's eyes, a cloud of gunfire and dust flashed again on the top of the opposite mountain, and the Japanese officer halfway up the mountain was immediately shot, and the whole person fell down after a large cloud of blood mist.
Seeing this, the remaining Japanese puppet soldiers on the mountainside immediately turned around and retreated down the mountain, but at this moment, a figure suddenly appeared among the weeds on the mountainside. A bright gunfire burst out from the man's hand, and the Japanese puppet soldiers who retreated halfway up the mountain were swept away by the gunfire, and for a while, the slope halfway up the mountain was full of screams and shouts.
