Chapter 7: Departure

"Pillar, shut up, it's not your turn to speak for me." was robbed of words, and Company Commander Xu originally showed an indifferent expression, but when he found that Lu Yuan didn't care about the people he brought at all, but kept staring at him with a sneer on his face, Company Commander Xu completely woke up.

Lu Yuan didn't mean to continue to deal with Company Commander Xu and the others, and after Company Commander Xu scolded his subordinates, Lu Yuan stepped forward to bypass these two people and leave the courtyard. But he didn't want the young man to move his body to block Lu Yuan's way after being scolded by Company Commander Xu, and he had the intention of not giving up. Lu Yuan couldn't help frowning, and said in his heart I didn't know you in the first place, and it was forgivable not to speculate, but what is this kid provoking himself so one after another?

Lu Yuan, who didn't want to be troubled, chose to retreat again, and took a step to the right, ready to bypass Company Commander Xu, but he didn't want the sturdy calf-like young man to block Lu Yuan's way again. This is a bit interesting, Lu Yuan, who was forced to stop again, stretched out his hand and rubbed his nose, and once again set his eyes on Lian Commander Xu. "Boy, don't look at our company commander, let me ask you, what are your skills?" The young man who blocked Lu Yuan's way saw that Lu Yuan had retreated again, and he thought that Lu Yuan was really a useless person, and his words became even more unscrupulous.

Glancing at Company Commander Xu, Lu Yuan saw that the other party didn't seem to want to stop the young man, so he shook his head and turned around to enter the house. "Well, what do I ask you? Who let you go? Seeing Lu Yuan turn around and prepare to leave, the young man was anxious, and then reached out to pull Lu Yuan. At this moment, Lu Yuan, who had already turned around, suddenly turned back, and stabbed the young man in the ribs with the rifle under his armpit with the help of his waist strength.

"Don't move, I'm afraid my hand will hurt you uncontrollably." Knocking down the young man who provoked him one after another, Lu Yuan immediately pulled out the shell gun on his waist and pointed it at Company Commander Xu who was trying to pounce. "I've made it very clear to you just now, I'm just a passerby, I'll leave here later, why do you have to keep trying to force each other. I can't think of anything I've offended you, and if you can't stop, then I'll have to tear my face and fight you here. ”

Lu Yuan's words didn't sound anything to Company Commander Xu, Ma Xiaobao, who was sent by Ma Tie to visit Lu Yuan, happened to walk to the gate of the courtyard, and after hearing this, Ma Xiaobao's face changed greatly. Others may not know Lu Yuan's skills, but Ma Xiaobao, who also experienced the chase yesterday afternoon, knows what kind of skills Lu Yuan has, "Don't shoot, you have something to say, you have something to say, you are not an outsider." Ma Xiaobao, who was in a hurry, rushed into the courtyard to try to stop the situation from deteriorating.

Lu Yuan didn't know Company Commander Xu and the young man, but he remembered Ma Xiaobao, and when he saw Ma Xiaobao glaring at him, he withdrew the shell gun, but he ignored Company Commander Xu. "Little brother, our Captain Ma sent me to give you new clothes for little brother, you see that you can't wear this clothes anymore, it's better to just put on this new one, I still have a pair of shoes, I just don't know if it fits your feet, little brother." Ma Xiaobao was born to be a guy who could say warm words, otherwise Ma Tie would not have sent him to visit Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan did not refuse Ma Xiaobao's kindness, and immediately took the burden brought by Ma Xiaobao and reflexively entered the house, and after a while, the rejuvenated Lu Yuan reappeared in the courtyard, and the company commander Xu and the young man had already left. "Tsk, although it is said that the same people wear the same clothes, but little brother, your style is incomparable to rough people like us." Ma Xiaobao, who was waiting in the courtyard, praised Lu Yuan fiercely for a while, but he didn't want Lu Yuan's next words to make Ma Xiaobao fall into an ice cave.

"Thank you for the clothes and shoes, I'm not going to say goodbye to you captains, I'll leave here in a moment, and before I leave, I want to know where the mule team was yesterday. This is the pistol of the company commander Xu just now, please help me return it to him. Lu Yuan is not a scheming person, but he can also see that Ma Xiaobao's intention is not as simple as giving clothes, so without waiting for Ma Xiaobao to say his intentions, Lu Yuan first opened his mouth and cut off the other party's opportunity to speak.

Ma Xiaobao had no choice but to personally accompany Lu Yuan to find Sun Wencai and his party, who were also settled in Majiaji, for Lu Yuan, Sun Wencai and the workers in the mule team were highly respected, and they were busy agreeing to Lu Yuan's request for a horse. Lu Yuan, who led the horse from Sun Wencai and refused to be accompanied by Ma Xiaobao, wandered around the Majiaji for a while, had breakfast, prepared dry food, and left the Majiaji on horseback.

Knowing that Company Commander Xu had hit a wall with Lu Yuan and suffered a loss, Ma Tie knew that something was wrong, and sure enough, after listening to Ma Xiaobao come back and say this, Ma Tie knew that Lu Yuan had left Ma Jiaji. "Old Han, what is the origin of that Company Commander Xu? That kid is the person I value, he made such a mess, that kid left directly, who should I find to reason. ”

didn't think about how Ma Tie and the company commander Xu should negotiate and break at all, Lu Yuan, who left Ma Jiaji, was riding a tall horse all the way to the north triumphantly, Lu Yuan didn't ride a cow or a donkey when he was a child, and Lu Yuan was not stunned at all in his heart for a horse that was one level higher than a cow and a donkey, and only rode out for a few miles, and Lu Yuan was already able to control the horse very well.

When he was wandering around Majiaji, Lu Yuan had already learned that it was the 26th year of the Republic of China, that is, the end of May 1937. 1937 was the time when the Japanese army launched a full-scale war of aggression against China, and the July 7 Incident in the north was the fuse, and it was now the end of May, and there was only a little more than a month left before the July Seven Incident. Where there is a war, there will definitely be a lot of Japanese soldiers, so Lu Yuan, who is eager to improve his level, is already in a hurry to rush to the north.

Lu Yuan's current location is in Datong, and Beiping is in the east of Datong, and Lu Yuan does not plan to go to Beiping, but chooses Zhangbei County, Zhangjiakou, which is closer to him and has long been occupied by the Japanese army. On May 31, 1933, the Kuomintang government signed the "Tanggu Agreement" with Japan, which designated the Chabei area, including Zhangbei County, as a free entry and exit zone for Japanese people, and on December 29 of the same year, in order to hold the throat leading to the interior of North China, the Japanese army entered Zhangbei County.

Datong is more than 200 kilometers away from Zhangjiakou, and four days later, when Lu Yuan rushed to Zhangjiakou in a caravan, the failure of the Japanese army and bandits to ambush Ma Tiemule a few days ago had been known to the Japanese troops stationed in Zhangbei. Upon learning that all five of the Imperial soldiers sent to the bandits were missing, the Japanese army in Zhangbei immediately reported the matter to the North China Branch of the Special High School and instructed the Special High School to investigate the matter.

Lu Yuan, who rushed to Zhangjiakou, did not know that this matter had attracted the attention of the Japanese army in Zhangbei, and after a short stay in Zhangjiakou, Lu Yuan abandoned the horse and disappeared alone in the suburbs of Zhangjiakou. Zhangbei County is more than 40 kilometers north of Zhangjiakou, Lu Yuan did not plan to go to Zhangbei County to find an opportunity to attack the Japanese army, during the two days of his stay in Zhangjiakou, Lu Yuan saw more than once unarmed Japanese soldiers appear in Zhangjiakou, so he chose to ambush the Japanese army on the way from Zhangjiakou to Zhangbei County.

The Japanese army has been stationed in Zhangbei County for many years, and Zhangjiakou, which is adjacent to Zhangbei County, has long become a frequent place for the Japanese army in Zhangbei to take a vacation and recreation, and at the same time, the Japanese army in Zhangbei also took advantage of the opportunity to go to Zhangjiakou for recreation to test the reality of the Chinese defenders in Zhangjiakou. With the help of the cover of night, Lu Yuan walked for a long time along the official road from Zhangjiakou to Zhangbei County, and finally found a position suitable for ambushing the Japanese army less than 30 kilometers away from Zhangbei County.

The forest in front of me is not very far from the official road, and behind the woodland is a gentle slope, and although the shrubs and grass branches on the gentle slope are sparse, they can also hide people. The place Lu Yuan chose was not the forest, nor the gentle slope, but chose to dig a T-shaped trench near the forest on the side of the official road.

Covering the top of the trench with branches and turf, and then effectively camouflaging the part of the trench that extends backwards, Lu Yuan has a simple bunker that can be attacked and defended. The busyness was finally over, and Lu Yuan, who had completed the bunker camouflage, looked at the rising sun, and at this moment his heart was full of anticipation for the battle. After his breathing stabilized, Lu Yuan turned over and sat up, and took out the dried meat and water he bought in Zhangjiakou from his backpack, before the Japanese soldiers appeared, the only thing Lu Yuan had to do was to recover his strength as soon as possible.

After being full of water and food, Lu Yuan huddled in the bunker with a rifle full of bullets, and while closing his eyes and resting, Lu Yuan tried his best to recall in his mind the tactical training he had received in the army. Lu Yuan was a soldier, and it was not an ordinary army, the unit that Lu Yuan enlisted in the army was a field army, if it weren't for the fact that Lu Yuan was given a quota when he was taking the military academy examination, maybe Lu Yuan had graduated from the military academy and became a grassroots officer of the field army before the crossing.

Leaving the beloved army is not only a relief for Lu Yuan, but an indelible memory in the depths of Lu Yuan's memory. It is precisely because of this that after Lu Yuan entered the government department and became a civil servant, he would live in a daze all day long.

It has only been more than a year since he left the army, and Lu Yuan can no longer see the breath of a soldier, but the tactical subjects and training he has learned in the army have been deeply engraved in Lu Yuan's bones. Lu Yuan, who was huddled in the bunker with a rifle, fell asleep unconsciously, and Lu Yuan, who was huddled in the bunker like a dead corpse, didn't know how long it had been, and it was still daytime when he woke up again.
