"What kind of broom star are you?" someone at the next table asked.
"You don't even know what a broom star is?" the loud voice asked.
"Isn't that a broom star that flies in the sky? What is that at night?" His companion was puzzled.
Even though his companion did not explain that the broom star was a comet in the sky, others understood it.
In fact, as a soldier who also did not read much, he only knew about that astronomical phenomenon but did not know that it was called a comet. Folks called it a broom star.
A broom star, isn't it just like a crow's mouth? Anyway, they are not popular, and they are by no means a symbol of auspicious and beautiful Tashi Delek.
"Shit, what kind of broomstick are you talking about? This is not the broomstick I am talking about. Didn't you know that there is a broomstick in our army?" The soldier, who was already a little drunk, took out the gun and looked at the table. The momentum is coming.
"When you muttered like this, I remembered. You're not talking about the few who came to our group last year to play around, are you?" A companion next to him suddenly realized.
"Yes! It's them you're talking about!" The loud voice said loudly and reached out to slap the table.
The movement he made was quite big, and the "pop" sound made other diners in the restaurant and the shopkeeper look over.
However, when they saw that the soldiers at the table were just drunk and had no intention of fighting, they all turned their heads away.
At this time, Qian Chuan'er and Qiu Bo, who had been listening, exchanged glances again.
Although neither of them spoke, they both knew that it was right for them to stay and listen! Just because the two of them now have reason to suspect that the "broom star" mentioned by the soldiers at this table is their group headed by Shang Zhen!
It has been a year since Shang Zhen and his group withdrew to Suizhong.
It stands to reason that remnant soldiers like them will either go to find their original troops or be recruited by the regiment stationed in Suizhong County. Shang Zhen and all of them, including Qian Chuan'er and Qiu Bo, will also Be mentally prepared for this.
But what was beyond their expectations was that they didn't know what the leader of the regiment was thinking. He neither let them go nor took them in. In the end, it was Wang Qingfeng who came forward to ask them to go outside Suizhong County. I went to raise pigs in a pig house!
There was something fishy about this matter inside and out, but Shang Zhen and the others knew no one in Suizhong, so who could they ask why they were sent to raise pigs?
This situation makes people feel like Lin Chong in "Water Margin" was sent to a pasture to see grain and grass!
At first, Shang Zhen and Wang Laomao tried to find someone to find out what the purpose of this was. But the officials here are very arrogant, and no one pays attention to them, but they are in trouble!
But then Shang Zhen laughed. Shang Zhen said, just raise pigs. I think this is good!
Why does Shang Zhen say this is good? Others have also figured it out. There is food and drink here and there is no need to fight. Shang Zhen started his own intensive training every day.
As for how to raise pigs, Shang Zhen doesn't care. He just said that we can secretly raise two to feed ourselves. Just don't eat those old sows!
At this point, Shang Zhen and his group of about ten people were stationed here.
Of course, even though they said they were raising pigs and no one cared about them, Wang Qingfeng also said when he came that you would hand over as many big fat pigs to the regiment at the end of the year.
And just when Wang Qingfeng left, he dropped a sentence with disdain, which was "these broomsticks"!
When Wang Qingfeng came out of the pig house holding his nose, Shang Zhen and the others were still thinking. They were not sure that he was talking about them. When they came back, they were still thinking about who the idiot was scolding when he said broom star. Woolen cloth?
So it went.
However, they who have been living in a pig shack outside the county town will inevitably have to deal with the subordinate units of this regiment. However, when they deal with them, they are afraid of avoiding them, which is really like hiding. Like a broom star.
At this point, Shang Zhen and the others realized something was wrong.
But after they discussed it, they felt that they were pretty good the way they were now, so they were happy to let no one care about them and didn't ask any questions.
And today Qian Chuan'er and Qiu Bo heard someone from this group mention the broom star again. How could they not be curious? How come we have become the bad guys?
And at this moment, the guy with the loud voice who drank too much was already giving a lecture.
"These guys were originally from the 7th Brigade, and they went to fight the young marshal's uncle and brother!" The man said something shocking as soon as he opened his mouth.
But just after he said these words, he also knew that the matter was serious, and subconsciously covered his mouth and looked around.
At this time, Qian Chuan'er and Qiu Bo had already picked up their bowls and pretended to drink, even though there was no wine in their bowls.
Seeing that no one noticed what he just said, the man started talking again: "At that time, they went to a battalion, and they happened to hit a Japanese armored vehicle. In the end, six people from one battalion escaped!"
This man's story immediately aroused whispers among his companions. There were only six people left in a battalion of hundreds of people. Wasn't this battle too brutal?
But the people at their table didn't notice that Qian Chuan'er and Qiu Bo at the next table were already exchanging glances.
I strangled them, and they felt it quite clearly. Weren't there only six of Shang Zhen and the others left at that time? At that time, even Qiu Bo didn’t join!
No need to ask, the broom stars they say refer to this group of people, so just listen carefully!
"As a result, these six people met another company of the Sixth Brigade on their way back.
It is said that this high-ranking official even put on makeup and went to Jinzhou to kill a Japanese! "
"What kind of official? How old are you? Are you a squadron leader or a group leader?" someone asked next to him.
"What the hell do I know? They don't know it themselves, so don't interrupt!" the loud one said.
At this time, the person next to him who had already noticed the interest said: "Let Li Dasheng speak, don't interrupt!"
The loud voice continued to speak: "Originally, they also made a great contribution, but who would have thought that they would cause a big trouble, and the Japanese would catch up with them.
They were unprepared and were caught off guard. This time, there were only seven people left in that company. "
"Ah? No way? Aren't there six of them? Then only one of that company escaped?" someone next to him asked.
"No, I didn't make it clear this time, it's the one with seven left, plus the earliest six, they make a total of thirteen!
These thirteen people are basically similar to the current group of bad guys.
There are also some people who died and some who joined later, but they are basically the same.
The key thing we're talking about isn't this. What we're talking about is, isn't this group of people now thirteen? The thirteen people ran back together again and went to Ningyuan.
Do you know that Liu Cheng's group is in Ningyuan? "The man asked again.
The answer he got to this question was naturally "I know", because Liu Cheng's regiment later surrendered to the Japanese army. It was said that it was because it suffered heavy losses and ran out of ammunition.
The most sensitive thing about this kind of well-organized regiment surrendering to the Japanese army is that the higher-ups blocked the news, and the lower-level soldiers would also know about it through other channels.
"But that's not the crux of this matter. The crux of this matter is -" At this point, the big yeller lowered his voice and looked around.
The business of this restaurant is really good. Customers come and go, but there are no empty tables anyway.
People at the other tables were busy eating and drinking, but the two soldiers at the table next to them picked up the bowls again. However, this time there was wine in the bowls, and Qiu Bo asked for two more bowls. .
Seeing that no one was paying attention, Li Dashou continued: "The key is that Liu Cheng's group wanted to break out even when they had nothing to do. The thirteen of them were used as cannon fodder in the front." .
According to our thinking, wouldn’t those who serve as cannon fodder become cannon fodder?
But——, no!
Instead of being used as cannon fodder, he came back alive and kicking, on the contrary! Liu Cheng's group is gone!
Do you think these guys are peeing? "
At this point, the loud voice stopped, picked up the wine bowl, and took another big sip.
And naturally what followed was the discussion from his tablemates.
"It's not just urine, it's very urine!" A soldier exclaimed loudly.
But the soldier had just finished praising him, and the loud voice spoke again: "Don't just talk about urine. Have you noticed? It's just this group of people. Whichever group they are with will be unlucky, right?! Then Do you think they are scoundrels?"
Do you even need to ask? If what he said is true, aren't these people the bad guys?
But what this loud voice didn't know at this time was that Qian Chuan and Qiu Bo at the next table were exchanging glances again. They finally knew why their group was called "the broom star"!
And this solved the long-standing mystery in their minds, which was why the regiment leader only allowed them to raise pigs but did not integrate them into the combat force.
If there are very few people nowadays who are not superstitious, that group leader must be superstitious. Maybe he is using the stench of the pig pen to restrain the bad luck brought about by people like them!
But then the question arose. There were only a dozen or so people in their group. Who could figure out the origins of this group of people so clearly, even knowing the details!
After Qian Chuan'er and Qiu Bo looked at each other for a moment, the two big men who were sitting across the table put their heads together. The lips of the two men were almost touching. Those who didn't know it thought that this was the case. What are these two men?
But at this moment, the two men spoke the same three words, and these three words were: "Hou Kanshan!"
