"Why do I think you are born with a beard?" When the four horses and mules stopped at the foot of a steep mountain, Old Huotou Kaba said to Shang Zhen with eyes wide open.
Shang Zhen was not the kind of person who was eloquent, so he could only roll his eyes in protest at Lao Huotou's compliment.
Qian Chuan'er, on the other hand, laughed when he heard what Old Man Huo said: "Sir, are you praising Shang Zhen, or are you praising Shang Zhen?"
"Of course it's a compliment, hehe, if you don't believe me, just ask Mr. Wang." Old Huotou still had dull eyes.
"Bold and careful, he doesn't say too much, and knows everything he does." But the old man, King Shang Zhen, did not hesitate to praise him.
At the beginning, Old Huo Tou made Shang Zhen the leader of their group, which was a helpless strategy, and the same was true for Old Mao Wang.
But who would have thought that Shang Zhen, who was as thin as a stick, was really decisive, ruthless and thoughtful.
Just when they found out that the villager actually had an arm chopped off by the Japanese army and the old and young were crying together, Lao Huo Tou and Wang Lao Mao had no choice.
The heartbreaking cries of the people made them want to avenge the people, but they were helpless.
They had made beards before, but now they were no longer beards, but they did not expect that Shang Zhen would take out his bayonet and use thunderous methods.
Shang Zhen's decisiveness was naturally appreciated by the gangster-like Lao Huo Tou and Wang Lao Mao.
But this time they wanted to attack the Japanese army again out of righteous indignation. Shang Zhen said, It is one thing to want to attack the Japanese, but another thing is how to attack them. We have to hide the extra weapons to prevent them from being destroyed. When will it be available?
What Shang Zhen said is naturally reasonable.
So far, the dozen or so of them have only been able to get a bargain.
Fighting in this war is like living in life. When you have money, you can't just spend money, so you have to save some! Why don't you go blind when you have no money?
In the battle between Shang Zhen and the Japanese army, they did not say victory but said defeat first. They thought about their way out first. This is exactly in line with the concept of "cunning rabbits with three burrows" of the bearded people. You said Lao Huo Tou and Wang Lao Mao are again How could he be dissatisfied with Shang Zhen?
Shang Zhen and the others moved all the extra weapons and ammunition up the hill.
The "Big Three" Shang Zhen, Lao Huo Tou, and Wang Lao Mao even walked around the hill. They were very satisfied with the place where the guide found them to hide their weapons.
There are open areas on three sides of the hill, which are four to five hundred meters deep, while the west side is connected to the forest behind by a ridge.
This place is suitable for both persistence and escape, so it is certainly an ideal location.
Now that they had a way out, Shang Zhen and the others set off immediately.
They just walked cautiously, without a clear goal. If they had to have a goal, then killing some Japanese soldiers would be the goal. It didn't matter how they killed or what method they used.
There were still sporadic gunshots in the east. It was the fighting in Ningyuan City that was continuing. Shang Zhen and the others naturally didn't know how the fighting was going.
Even if they have the intention to save, they will never move forward.
Their troops are too small, there are about ten of them in total. If they accidentally run into a Japanese ambush and the Japanese machine guns click like an old hen laying eggs, they will suffer heavy casualties!
"I wonder how the fight is going there?" Chen Hanwen knew that what he was saying was nonsense, but Chen Hanwen couldn't help but say it.
But since he asked knowingly, no one answered him.
So Chen Hanwen continued: "I don't know if the dead monkey delivered the letter. When will the reinforcements come?"
No one responded to Chen Hanwen's words, but everyone involuntarily glanced at Mr. Wang.
They were fighting life and death here, but Hou Kanshan went back to deliver the message.
Going back to deliver letters is undoubtedly a good job, and Hou Kanshan can get such a good job, isn't it because of Mr. Wang?
Wang Laomao naturally noticed everyone's gaze. He subconsciously reached out and rubbed his nose without saying a word.
Just because he didn't say anything, it didn't mean that someone would let him go.
He said that in their team, no one else dared to mess with Mr. Wang, after all, Mr. Wang had been a platoon leader.
Now that everyone has identified Shang Zhen as the leader, Shang Zhen will never say anything about Mr. Wang. After all, Mr. Wang is his platoon leader.
It was Old Huotou who did not let Old Hat Wang go. In this team, Old Huotou was the only one who had the qualifications and strength to challenge Old Hat Wang.
"I'm talking about Mr. Wang, that Hou is not your brother-in-law, right?" Lao Huotou asked seriously, but his eyes that were tightly focused on Kaba revealed his ill intentions towards Mr. Wang.
Wang Lao Mao looked at Lao Huo Tou's glaring eyes and thought for a moment before replying, "It's your brother-in-law!"
He could never answer, "Hou Kanshan is not his brother-in-law, and he has nothing to do with Hou Kanshan."
Old Huotou, this bad old man, is very bad. He doesn't speak easily, and what he says has profound meaning. If he says that he has nothing to do with Hou Kanshan, then this old bad man will definitely say, "I'm not your brother-in-law, you are." Take care of him like this?"
Old Huo Tou glanced at Mr. Wang in surprise. He unexpectedly found that the trap he had laid was discovered by Mr. Wang!
So Lao Huotou could only snort: "If I had a brother-in-law like this, I wouldn't even want a wife!"
But Mr. Wang also snorted and did not continue. He glanced at the winter forest and said in his heart, you old man on stage, do you have a wife? If you have a wife, how can you be a gang leader? In fact, you are just an old loser!
When it comes to Lao Juehu, this title is still very sinister. What is Lao Juehu, it means that there are no descendants and no descendants.
Old Mao Wang is not afraid of Old Huo Tou, but he is wary of the gang of gangsters under Old Huo Tou, such as Qiu Bo.
"Hehe", after Mr. Wang said this, Mr. Huotou smiled cunningly again, "Actually, I know what you are thinking about?"
"What am I thinking about?" Old Huo Tou said this and Old Mao Wang was curious.
"I must be thinking about you old fool. Do you have a wife? You are also a brother-in-law!" Old Huo Touyan said.
When Mr. Wang heard what Mr. Hutou said, he stopped laughing. He didn't explain anything.
No explanation is just acquiescence. Calling Lao Huotou an old loser is what you said yourself. It is none of my business!
"Alas." Old Huotou said with a rare sigh, "Who said I don't have a wife? My wife was pregnant when I left home!"
Um? Lao Huotou's words immediately aroused everyone's curiosity, and everyone in the team, including Shang Zhen, pricked up their ears.
"I think I saw a bunch of rabbits!" Old Huotou changed the subject.
His nonsensical words left everyone baffled, and people with slow brains like Erhanzi Huzhu actually looked around. However, the surrounding mountains and forests were still the same, with both withered white trees and emerald green pines, but Where is the rabbit?
"There's no such thing as a rabbit, you old man is a liar!" Hu Zhuzhu said angrily.
"You idiot, please stop saying a few words. He is scolding us. He is saying that when he mentions his wife, all of our ears stand up like rabbits!" There will be a smart person to explain to Hu Zhuzi. , such as Qian Chuaner.
Old Huotou looked back at Qian Chuan'er, who stuck out his tongue at him.
However, Lao Huotou had no intention of pursuing Qian Chuan'er. That was what he meant originally, but the language trap he set was once again discovered by Qian Chuan'er.
"I do have a daughter-in-law, but I just made that bitch pregnant. She went out to serve as a soldier but couldn't go back." To everyone's surprise, Old Huotou mentioned his life experience again, but his tone was calm, It was as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.
"Who didn't tie your legs? You can go back now." Old Mao Wang continued.
"I can't go back, I can't go back, it's on the other side of the river," Lao Huotou sighed and turned his head north. His eyes looked at the endless mountains and forests, as if he was crossing thousands of mountains and rivers.
"Which river?" Shang Zhen asked curiously.
Although Shang Town has little culture, he has also heard about the rivers and rivers in the three eastern provinces.
There are not many rivers called rivers in the Northeast. For example, the largest river in Liaoning is called Liaohe River. As for rivers, Shang Zhen can only think of two, one is called Songhua River and the other is called Heilongjiang. As for the others, he really I don't know.
Tiger Head did not answer Shang Zhen's question, but then he hummed.
And this humming of his was not the humming of an old man who was frail and tired from work, he just hummed a little tune.
It’s just that the melody of the ditty was very strange. Even when Shang Zhen and the others recalled it later, they were sure that the words that Old Huotou hummed were neither the dialect of the three eastern provinces nor the languages of the ethnic minorities in the eastern three provinces, such as Korean Bangzi. , the language of old Tatars and Huizi.
At that time, Shang Zhen and others, who were already well-informed, guessed that the river Old Huo Tou mentioned should be Heilongjiang, not Songhua River.
The Songhua River is a river in China. If you can cross the river from the south to the north by boat, how could you not be able to return home?
But Heilongjiang is the boundary river between China and the Soviet Union. Based on Old Huotou's age, it can be imagined that the Soviet Union had not been established when he was young, and it should have been Tsarist Russia at that time.
Old Huotou should have had a wife and a child in Tsarist Russia, but after returning from Tsarist Russia and the establishment of the Soviet Union, he could never go back.
In addition, the ditty that Old Huotou hummed at that time should be a Russian national ditty. From this, Shang Zhen and the others came to a conclusion that shocked them: Old Huotou's wife should be Lao Maozi (Russian).
Although they had mixed opinions about Lao Huotou in the future, everyone still unanimously praised Lao Huotou for having Lao Maozi's wife.
This old guy is really smart and managed to get a wife!
Note: Goryeo Bangzi and Huizi refer to the two ethnic minorities in the three eastern provinces, namely the Koreans and the Hui. Regarding Lao Tatar, it is generally regarded as a collective name for the northern ethnic minorities, which can be Mongolian, Dahaner, Manchu, and some are also said to be Jurchen.
