When Zhang Tianhai and his troops arrived, it was already five minutes later.
Liu Houming and others were confronting the people like this. The people were unwilling to let them go, so naturally they had no way to escape.
"Liu Houming, please explain to me, what is the situation now?!" Zhang Tianhai was furious when he saw his brothers who had gone through life and death together, and the common people. But as the leader, he must We need to understand all the causes and consequences.
Liu Houming put down the 38-meter cover in his hand, strode up to Zhang Tianhai, stood at attention and saluted: "Master, I have failed to complete the task assigned by you. I am very ashamed. Please punish me!"
Looking at Liu Houming's face, Zhang Tianhai immediately calmed down. He knew that Liu Houming was not the kind of impulsive person. He would never do what he was doing unless he had no choice but to do so.
"Hou Ming, let me tell you. Now is not the time for punishment, now is the time to figure things out! Then solve the problem. You report it truthfully and don't hide anything." Zhang Tianhai said in a deep voice.
"Yes, leader!" Liu Houming responded, and then reported all the causes and consequences of the matter to Zhang Tianhai.
Liu Houming did not add any exaggeration, he just said these words very calmly, and even repeated the original words that Zhao Damin said just now.
After hearing these words, Zhang Tianhai's face suddenly sank - really, he had never encountered such blackmail on soldiers, and these soldiers had just come off the battlefield.
"Shameless!" Zhang Tianhai cursed softly.
When he heard these words, Liu Houming's hanging heart finally relaxed: judging from the group leader's tone, the group leader will support them to the end no matter what happens this time.
Zhang Tianhai walked to the front of the team with a cold face, his eyes full of anger. Behind him, more than 400 officers and soldiers of the first battalion had been sent in a wild goose formation, and the guns in their hands were also aimed at those The villagers of Zhaojia Village opposite.
Seeing that the troops on the opposite side seemed to be serious about taking action, a trace of fear finally flashed across the faces of the villagers in Zhaojiacun.
The people cannot fight with the officials, especially officers with troops armed with live ammunition.
There was silence all around, and Zhang Tianhai spoke loudly: "Villages across the way, listen. We are the troops of the first regiment directly under the third theater. I am not afraid to tell you that I am the leader of this regiment. You always think that It seems that the war has nothing to do with you, and that fighting is only the responsibility of our soldiers. Let me tell you, a massacre is going on in Nanjing, an inhumane massacre. You always think that these Japanese soldiers will laugh at the internal struggle of our country and will not take advantage of it. Common people take action, I tell you, you are wrong!"
"The enemy we are facing is an unprecedentedly ferocious enemy. As long as they come over, they will burn, kill, loot and do all kinds of evil. How can there be an egg under the crowd? You always think that the war has nothing to do with you, but have you ever thought about it? , when the war really comes to you, what should you do? Are you crying for your parents and begging us, the national army, to come back to help you fight and fight the war?! But have you ever thought that you can Have you ever been able to stand up to us soldiers who shed blood, sweat and tears for the country?!" When he said this, Zhang Tianhai was already very excited and he could hardly restrain his emotions.
"In order to protect this homeland, the land under your feet; for us Chinese to live a happy and good life; in this war, how many good brothers we have died and how many good sons and daughters have been sacrificed, do you know ?! Let me tell you, we people are worthy of the country, the nation, and the people! If you really want our lives, then raise your axes and hoes. Our lives are mine, Zhang Yulin I'm waiting for you here, just come over here!" As he said that, Zhang Tianhai took out the pistol from his waist and fired a shot into the sky.
"boom!!"
The loud gunshots startled the villagers of Zhaojia Village present. They looked at each other and saw the fear in each other's eyes.
At this moment, the clan elder of Zhaojiacun stood up. He was an old man about seventy or eighty years old. His figure was already skinny and he even needed help when walking. He only had a crutch in his hand that seemed to be of some age. , and the long fluttering beard on his face looks a bit fairy-like under the light of the torch.
"Sir opposite, I'm sorry. Our young boys in Zhaojiacun are not sensible. You, sir, have a lot of them, so just wave your hand and treat them like farts!" Because no one said anything. , so the old voice of the Zhaojiacun clan elder seemed particularly clear.
The surrounding creeks were still flowing quietly, with only the gentle sound of water flowing; under the cold wind at night, the bamboos were also gently swaying with the wind, and then made a "swishing" sound. Voice.
At night, everything is cool.
"Okay. But all the food in our hands must be taken away! Just keep the money we give you. Our team will not steal your food. Although the method is not very bright, we still I don’t owe you anything, what happened to Zhaojiacun!” With that said, Zhang Tianhai took the money bag from Liu Houming’s hand and took out five yuan from it.
Holding the five pieces of ocean in his pure white command gloves, Zhang Tianhai slowly walked up to Zhao Damin, squatted down, and said, "These five pieces of ocean are the money we paid for your soup and medicine. Don't blame us." It’s too cruel, and there’s nothing we can do about it. You’ll understand later.”
After saying that, Zhang Tianhai gently placed the five pieces of ocean on the ground, then stood up, turned around and left.
Maybe Zhao Damin couldn't understand the deep meaning of Zhang Tianhai's words, but Liu Houming on the side understood it: the group members are not optimistic about this place, and if nothing unexpected happens, this place will soon fall.
Walking back to the team of the 1st Preliminary Battalion, Zhang Tianhai straightened his military cap and asked loudly: "Let's go quickly. If you don't leave, will it be embarrassing to stay here?!"
After saying this, Zhang Tianhai and others took the lead and left, followed closely by the officers and soldiers of the first battalion, leaving only the villagers in Zhaojia Village looking at each other in silence.
Looking at the tall back of the departing national army officer, Zhao Damin endured severe pain and couldn't help but ask himself: Are the villagers really wrong?
In fact, from both their standpoints, no one is wrong. What is wrong is just this son of a bitch’s troubled world!
