After listening to Yu Chenglong's words, Xiao Sanyi felt that he might have doubts about the commander-in-chief's plans, but she still advised Yu Chenglong to obey the commander-in-chief's intentions unconditionally.
"The commander-in-chief seems to have made up his mind, so you might as well go against it. You can wait first, but we are not using delaying tactics, so don't cause misunderstanding.
That's it. I'll report to the commander-in-chief tomorrow. Tell him your thoughts and see if he has any other instructions.
You should hurry up and go back to the mountains tomorrow. You will be inseparable there. Take the brothers in the mountains with you. Do you need to write a letter and I'll take it with you? The commander-in-chief may have new ideas after reading your letter. "
Xiao Sanyi decided not to talk to Yu Chenglong about whether to join the revolutionary army, because Yu Chenglong had his own ideas, but the commander-in-chief had basically decided on this matter, and Yu Chenglong could not object, so Xiao Sanyi wanted to End this topic.
"I don't think you need to write a letter. I suggest you don't even bring a gun with you on the way. The inspections will be strict along the way, and safety is the most important thing."
Yu Chenglong also decided not to continue this topic. He told Aunt Xiao to be careful along the way. In a land full of Japanese devils, protecting yourself is the most important thing.
"Well, on the first day of next month, if you send someone to pick me up into the mountain, you don't have to come in person. I will feel relieved to see your third aunt."
"I will also enter the mountain from that direction tomorrow, so let me continue to give you a ride."
"That's okay, let's go together tomorrow. It's midnight again, Jackie Chan, you go to bed first, I'll go out and take a look, and grab some firewood to burn the kang. I think the kang is a bit cold."
"I'd better go too!"
"You'd better lie down. There's a urine bucket in the outer room. I can go out alone."
Aunt Xiao San put on her clothes and went outside. She didn't come back for a long time. Maybe she wanted to go out of the yard to have a look for safety reasons. Yu Chenglong lay on the kang, thinking about what was on his mind, and couldn't fall asleep for a long time.
The next day, Shan Ju led He Laogui to visit Commander Yu, but Hua’s mother did not come in person because she had something to do. Commander Xiao and Commander Yu explained some things to Shan Ju and He Laogui respectively.
Shanju also brought Yu Chenglong's "Good Citizen Certificate", whose name was Jiang Hailong. Shan Ju offered to escort Commander Xiao, saying that the deputy commander could not rest assured that she was traveling alone, but Commander Xiao insisted and refused.
So Aunt Xiao Xiao and Yu Chenglong drove a horse-drawn cart and left this secret contact point. They were walking in a hurry. It seemed that they also wanted to hurry up.
I encountered several interrogations along the way and passed them successfully. When it was dark, the two entered Hulashue Town, found a hotel, and stayed in the name of husband and wife.
After entering the room, the two of them walked to the window and returned to the door for a closer look. At this time, Yu Chenglong and Xiao Dongxue were very cautious and acted even more carefully. Aunt Xiao San asked Yu Chenglong to arrange some food, saying that she had to go out for something.
After a long time, Aunt Xiao San came back, but she didn't say much to Jackie Chan. Yu Chenglong didn't ask, he knew that Xiao Sanyi always did things carefully.
After the two of them finished eating, Aunt Xiao San said: "It's been a tiring day, let's go to bed!"
Yu Chenglong agreed, washed his face and feet, then lay down and slept. Aunt Xiao did not go to sleep immediately. She fetched water, turned off the lights, and took a leisurely bath while humming the tune she learned from dancing that night.
Aunt Xiao Xiao is such a woman who can always take things up and let them go, but she married Wang Zhankui by mistake. What a pity! Thinking of these, Yu Chenglong felt guilty in his heart.
After taking a bath, Aunt Xiao San lay down and said softly: "This place is not far from my home and your home. I want to go and have a look. It's really weird."
Yu Chenglong did not fall asleep. He sat up and objected: "That's not possible. It's too dangerous. Once you go on a business trip, your whole family will be affected."
"I think we will go tonight, and we will split up tomorrow morning and go about our own business. No one will notice if we go in the dark, so we can stay hidden."
"This is absolutely not possible, and I cannot agree to it. My idea is to wait for a while, and then we can find a more reliable place and move our home there. It will be safer that way.
It is not appropriate for us to go home now, as it may cause trouble to the family. My family may know what we are doing now, and it will be the same when we go back and see, so let’s give up this idea for now. "
"Then I'll listen to you. Alas, I feel sour when I suddenly think of home!"
"Go to sleep, third aunt! This is human nature. Women are more likely to miss home than men. But no, who knows if someone is targeting our home!"
"I just went out to meet with the two brothers I stayed here to inquire about the situation, and asked them to take a horse and wait for me outside the town tomorrow morning. Let's break up tomorrow, and I will ask them to escort me to see the commander-in-chief. "
"This is feasible. I suddenly had an idea. You ask your two brothers to go to your house and my house respectively, and set up a secret contact point there. Don't let our two families know, and don't get too close to our family.
Let these two secret contact points also be responsible for protecting the safety of our two families, so that we can save ourselves some worries and focus on fighting the Japanese in the mountains.
If we find that our home is being targeted by the Japs, we must move our home immediately. If it is still safe, we will live there temporarily until we have the opportunity to move again. "
"That's okay, I'll make arrangements tomorrow... Go to sleep, we have to leave early tomorrow morning. My two brothers said that they are recruiting laborers here, and asked all the young and strong laborers in each village to sign up, saying that they would go to the north to work The Japanese built fortifications.
Of course, they have been recruiting for a long time and there are not many people who have signed up. I think if they still can't recruit, they will have to arrest them. Please be careful on the way. "
Before going to bed, Aunt Xiao San told Yu Chenglong to pay attention and avoid catching laborers along the way, so as not to cause trouble if they meet on the road.
"I think this is an opportunity. Most of the arrested workers couldn't go home, and some were beaten to death or exhausted. It's easy to mobilize them to join our team. Let's think of a way from this aspect. I think it can work."
When Yu Chenglong heard from Aunt Xiao San that the Japs were catching laborers, he sat up excitedly. He thought this was a good opportunity and could he use this opportunity to further expand his team and replenish his troops.
"You get angry as soon as you touch the fire, and you regain your energy, don't you? The Japanese are very strict with the laborers they finally captured, and they won't let them run away easily.
You need to think carefully about this matter and be cautious. Besides, now is not the time to act. Go to sleep, I'm a little tired. You can think about this carefully after you go into the mountains.
Now that you are by my side, my third aunt sleeps peacefully. I haven’t had a good night’s sleep in months, and I’ve been worrying about it all day long, “Go to sleep!” "
Aunt Xiao San turned over and stopped talking. Yu Chenglong also slowly lay down, but he did not fall asleep immediately, but was thinking a lot.
