evening.
Some soldiers dressed in ordinary people's clothing carried water and repaired houses for the people in the village. More people leaned against the walls and worked under the sun for most of the day. They were exhausted and exchanged their thoughts.
The rifles were set up in clusters in the open space. From a distance, they looked like the resting guerrillas of No. 100.
Although there were many people in the village, it was quite quiet, except for the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground.
The energetic ones are still climbing over the walls and touching the roots of the walls.
Hu Yi arrived for the first time and had no separate place to live. He drove Luo Fugui to the ground and slept by himself all afternoon.
Being shaken awake by the girl again, the two of them walked to Su Qing's office one after another.
"You don't want to climb over the wall anymore?"
"If there's anything to cover, I've already learned it!"
"Park Buhuan's tricks are pretty good, you can learn them."
"Oh, he exposed all Ma Liang's rows to the sun. You see, I'm all tanned!"
"Let me see, what's the matter with the scratch on your arm?"
"I didn't stand firm when I jumped off the wall."
Does it hurt?
Are you saying it's too late?
Deserve it.
Hey hey⋯
Su...what did she call me for?
What else can happen? The letter the political commissar asked you to bring mentioned the sheep head. She will ask you to verify the situation.
Uh, are you still used to it here?
"I'm not used to it. There's no river to swim in, and I can't shoot. If it hadn't been for the vixen's quick reaction last time, my aunt would have killed those black dogs!"
The two chatted and laughed before going to Su Qing's room.
The girl grabbed the tea cup in front of Su Qing and drank.
"...Why do you conclude that Li Yong is the number three in the Japanese plan?" Su Qing analyzed carefully.
"Li Youcai said it."
"It's unlikely. I've investigated this person, and with his little mind, he doesn't have that ability."
"Who knows? The plan was made by the dead Japanese soldier Uehara." Hu Yi frowned.
"The biggest threats to the Japanese are the Independent Regiment and the Anti-Japanese Team. The Japanese have inserted people into the Eighth Route Army. The Anti-Japanese Team has no problem. Recruiting Jin Scara is reasonable. However, Li Youde has changed from maintaining the president to the battalion commander of the security army. There is no threat at all. , according to Li Youcai, there should be four sheep heads, but he said that there are only three files, and the number of people does not match. "
"At least Li Youde thinks he is unreliable. It is our job to fight against the stubborn security forces. Well... this is what the political commissar said." Hu Yi thought for a moment.
"I don't think you can dig out the sheep's head by doing this. If the group leader brings the group of people that Ma Liangliang brought back into the mountain, it will be too risky in any aspect." Su Qing thought for a while.
"Only the regiment leader, political commissar and Gao Yidao know about our activities in this area!"
"Isn't it right? At least Lao Qin and Lao Meng know about it, and the identities of all Lao Meng's guerrillas have not been investigated clearly. There must be some problems among them!"
"They are on the west side of the blockade, and they don't know our specific location. Even if there are spies, what's the problem?"
"I have drawn up a plan, and the work against enemy agents must be carried out immediately!"
"I'm not very good at this!"
"The division has ordered us to launch another counter-revolutionary campaign, streamline the troops and streamline administration, and launch a large-scale production campaign. We currently have insufficient manpower. I am going to report it to the regiment and transfer some soldiers with strong ideas and culture to come over and assign them to various villages to carry out work!"
Along with Hu Yi came a special team of a class. They were all women, led by Captain Liu of the guerrilla team. They were all dressed in linen clothes and gray trousers, and their clothes were slightly too big. They had messy hair and no hats.
The armed belts are all equipped with an eight-way configuration, and everyone is fully equipped. They have only been here for a day, and most of them are hanging out with the fellow villagers, except for Erniu, because she wants to pass on information and try not to show up.
Because they are all women, they work more carefully. First, the village's sanitation is completely new. Wang Xiaosan, who is responsible for cooking, feels much more relaxed. He finally finds time to train with Ma Liang.
Luo Fugui put the tree trunk on his shoulder up to the roof. After Li Xiang and others who were repairing the roof pulled the trunk up, Luo Fugui panted and walked to the eaves next to it.
Lifting up the earthen jar filled with water, he sucked up the remaining half of the cold water in one breath, and suggested at the top of his voice: "We can't finish the work today anyway, so we can save it and continue working tomorrow!"
Li Xiang placed the piece of wood securely on the roof, put a small wooden stick on it and pressed an iron nail on it, then used the hammer and gave it a few wild swings: "It needs to be done quickly. The roof here is not repaired, and tiles will appear all the time." It might fall and hit someone, making it impossible for them to stay, so we have to deal with it in the yard."
"You said...since the roof is being repaired, can we make some holes in the brick house?"
"Okay, do you want to open the shooting hole?" Li Xiang stopped what he was doing and asked.
"Well, let's open a few more holes that are half a person's height!" Luo Fugui thought for a while and decided to leave more escape routes.
"Uh... no problem, you can dig tunnels. You can go find the half-immortals. Aren't they busy digging holes at the entrance of the village?"
"I'll go find them later. Uh... can you build a few more machine gun bunkers on the roof?"
"In this place?" Li Xiang looked at Luo Fugui, then looked around. Is there a bunker here? It’s of no use: “If you want to repair it, it must be repaired at the entrance of the village, or it must be located directly opposite the intersection into the village. Why repair the roof in the middle of the yard? There are obstacles all around, and there is no shooting range?”
"Can't I go up there to watch and sleep on the way?" The bear curled his lips.
"Oh well!"
"etc!"
"what?"
"Go pick up two baskets of soil!"
"Forget it, uh... can you put a ladder on the roof?"
⋯⋯
The last shadow of the sun melted into the mountains, downplaying the excited figure of a team. The Qingxiang team, composed of maintenance committees, landlords, and detective teams, slowly walked into a village.
After receiving the news, the tree dwellers quickly closed the door and gathered at the door to look out nervously.
The Qingxiang team was so bad that they ran around in the villages all day long, looking for traces of the Eighth Route Army guerrillas.
The traitors of the detective team are keen on doing this. Once there are landlords and wealthy people who have been attacked by the Eighth Route Army or the guerrilla team of the armed work force, they are always looking for opportunities to retaliate. Once they find that someone has sheltered Eighth Route Army staff or wounded, they will Immediate extortion.
For minor cases, a large sum of money will be fined. For serious and unrepentant cases, the person will be kidnapped directly and sent to the county police prison. If you don't have money, you can't even think about getting out.
If you can’t pay the fine, you naturally don’t want to repent!
And the staff members who can catch the wounded or isolated members of the Eighth Route Army can even make a fortune. As for the established Eighth Route Army, I haven't heard of it in the past two months anyway, so I have become bolder, taking advantage of the darkness to contact everyone. The village spy.
The traitor lackeys also found out the experience, and the best place to check turned out to be the latrines of ordinary people! Because as long as someone’s house is found to have paper for wiping one’s buttocks after defecation in the latrine, that house will be connected to eight roads!
Nine out of ten are accurate!
Because the common people use wattle sticks, wood chips, tiles, bricks, and stones to solve the problem!
Ordinary people don’t even need draft paper!
The idle captain of the detective team, Yang Xuanzi, said harshly that the Eighth Route Army killed his brother and now he wants to take revenge. He believed that his brother had not made any mistakes. He just led the Japanese to capture a few wounded Eighth Route soldiers and was suppressed by the Anti-Japanese Democracy. Got it!
He couldn't swallow this breath.
Aren't everyone on the road all bandits?
The Nationalist Government used to preach like this, and the Imperial Army also said the same thing when they came: if you catch a Eighth Route Army, you can get five yuan! Yang Leizi snitched and arrested two Eighth Route Army soldiers, so he was able to join the detective team and became the team leader of this area.
It's best to have a relationship with the big families in the village, otherwise the bonus for arresting people and dispatching so many people won't be enough.
When it was almost dawn last night, one of his informants spotted a group of people coming from the west. The group was very wary. The informants had poor eyesight and were timid and did not dare to follow them. He estimated that the group should be nearby. several villages.
A stranger appeared in the village, but there was no informant to report it. Yang Laizi was very angry. As for whether he was on the Eighth Route Army, people who were still running around at night these days were very likely to have problems.
"Captain Yang, there seems to be nothing wrong. Is there an error in the information?" A subordinate came to report.
"Stay away from me... Ergouzi said that he saw a group of people coming with his own eyes. He can't be wrong. Go and call Ergouzi over!" Yang Lezi looked at the closed doors of every house and said, "Hold all the doors. Knock it open for me!"
