Two hours later, it was already noon. King Shang Zhen, Lao Mao, Xiao Dustpan and four other soldiers came out of a village and were walking and talking. Three of the other four soldiers were Gu Man, Zhou Xiu and Gu Bing, the fourth soldier was introduced by Zhou Xiu as Jin Yuanduo. He had a good relationship with Zhou Xiu and could fight.
When Shang Zhen and others heard Zhou Xiu's introduction, they guessed that Jin Yuanduo was of Korean ethnicity, and this was indeed the case when they asked.
Due to geographical reasons, in addition to the Han people who were the first to cross the Guandong, there are also many Manchus, Mongolians, and Koreans among the Northeastern people.
"You said you are wimps. You can be considered as joining our gang, but you don't even have a certificate of nomination." Old Mao Wang said to the four soldiers dissatisfied.
Gu Man and the four of them looked at each other, and they were really speechless.
"Boss, what's the last name of the guard company commander who came to see you last time? Why don't you go to them and ask for some son bombs?" Little Dustpan said.
Before Shang Zhen could say anything, Mr. Wang had already answered on his behalf: "Bring it down quickly. How dare you ask for bullets? The guard company belongs to the brigade. If the brigade commander doesn't deal with us, it's already good!
You ask for bullets, not to mention whether they will give them to us. If the brigade commander catches Xin'er and really sends us to the forward position, what do you think we should do?
It's impossible not to go, but if you go, then what will happen if you get on the battlefield? The entire brigade has suffered casualties of over 2,000 people, and that’s no worse than our skeletons! "
"Hey, father-in-law, how come it's all your fault?" Little Dustpan was unhappy when Mr. Wang said this. "It's your fault to say that you want to get bullets, and it's your fault to say that you can't get bullets." Yours, why are you blocking both sides?"
What Little Dustpan said about blocking both sides was also a vulgar word. He was not polite when talking to Mr. Wang, which made the four people from Guman and others, who had just been squeezed by Mr. Wang, laugh.
Old Man Wang glanced at Little Dustpan hatefully and said nothing. Of course he was not afraid of Little Dustpan. He just knew that if he had a quarrel with this little bastard, he might not be able to take advantage. Instead, Gu Man and the others would be The "newcomers" see their own joke!
Now Shang Zhen and the others are fine, and the situation two hours ago was also very funny.
They saw the brigade commander Liu Chengyi pacing in front of them after asking them questions, pacing from one end of the team to the other and back again, and then he was grinding like a donkey (mò) He went over his head and continued pacing.
There is no doubt that when Liu Chengyi was pacing, Shang Zhen and the others were feeling uneasy.
As far as their matter is concerned, whether it is big or small, it all depends on what the brigade commander Liu Chengyi said.
To put it bluntly, Liu Chengyi's order was to attack, but they withdrew. It was nonsense to say that they could not defeat the Japanese. The other officers and soldiers of the 337 brigade also knew that they could not defeat the Japanese, but why did they die on the battlefield? China.
To put it bluntly, they were indeed not sent by Liu Chengyi to attack Xiaobengbu, they could only be considered as helpers.
In the end, Liu Chengyi did not give Shang Zhen and the others a characterization of the matter. Just when Liu Chengyi was walking around for the third time, they just walked away!
He walked further and further away without even looking back, so his officers naturally followed him.
Wang Qingfeng couldn't figure out what her brother-in-law meant, so she could only say harsh words to Shang Zhen and the others. Just when Hou Wangshan pretended to roll up his arms and sleeves and wanted to beat him, Wang Qingfeng finally ran away and followed his brother-in-law. The footsteps went.
Everyone who had to leave left, and Shang Zhen and the other thirty or so people were left hanging in place.
After Shang Zhen and Wang Laomao analyzed for a while, they finally concluded that the brigade commander Liu Chengyi had let them go.
At this moment, Gu Man and the four of them, who had been secretly watching from a distance, came over and proposed to join the gang.
Being able to fight the Japanese independently, and being able to run away if they can't be beaten, the chance of survival is relatively higher than that of the large army. And the brigade commander at least treats a small team like Shang Zhen and the others fairly, so why should Gu Man and the others be unhappy? joined.
In the same way, Shang Zhen and the others certainly welcome new people to join.
Can't work or fight, like Chu Tian's female student Su Ya is like Gao Yuyan's "eating for free".
But Yu Shangzhen and others like Guman, Zhou Xiu and Gu Bing are considered newcomers to this team, but they are also veterans. At first glance, they are all heroes. Who would think that there are too many laborers to work, right?
Under Shang Zhen's order, the others ran to a small village not far away, but Wang Laomao suggested to see if they could get some boxes of cannon bullets for Shang Zhen. Shang Zhen and the others went to the village where the brigade headquarters was located. Find a way to go.
However, although they had a good idea, the landlord did not have any surplus food at home, and they did not dare to attract the favor of the brigade commander Liu Chengyi, so they did not get a single bullet back.
Now Shang Zhen and the other seven people are very sleepy. They all didn't sleep when they participated in the battle last night, so they went to a small village not far away without saying a word to meet their own people. .
The Japanese army occupied Xiaobengbu again, and the Northeast Army was organizing a counterattack to take Xiaobengbu back.
So now Shang Zhen and the others are with the large army. The small village in front is more than ten miles away from Xiaobengbu, and now the large army is behind Shang Zhen and the others. They are not worried that the Japanese army will soon Call me.
When Shang Zhen and the others walked into this small village, they saw that the village had not been damaged by the war. There were actually some villagers in the village. When the villagers saw that they had come to serve as soldiers again, they pointed their hands in and told Shang Zhen , their people are inside.
Shang Zhen and the others walked inside again, only to find that it was much busier inside than outside. Whether it was soldiers or villagers, some were carrying water, some were moving mud, and some were carrying bricks, but they were all very busy.
"Hey, Lao Guan, what are you busy with?" Little Dustpan took a step forward and said to Guan Tiedou, who was bending down to work.
At this moment, Guan Tiedou stood up, carrying a tall stack of bricks in his hands. The top edge of the bricks had reached the tip of his chin!
"Oh, you're back." Guan Tiedou said happily when he saw Xiao Dustpan, Shang Zhen and the others, "We met a good family and let us build a kang in their spare house."
"Huh?" Shang Zhen and the others were stunned when they heard this, but then they all beamed with joy. Is there such a thing?
The so-called "wife and children sleep on the hot kang." This does not only refer to Northeasterners, but also to northerners. As for the Northeastern people nowadays, there is no one who does not sleep on the hot kang.
Sleeping on a hot bed in the Northeast is no longer a question of whether you like it or not, but that you have to sleep, otherwise who can stand the horrible weather?
It's just that since Shang Zhen and the others entered the customs on September 18, the hot kang head has been insulated from them.
The exiled students from the Northeast were wandering around the customs all day long, while soldiers such as Shang Zhen were fighting the Japanese army all day long. If they were not fighting, they would sleep in the open with the sky as their bed and the earth as their bed.
Fortunately, everyone is from the Northeast. It’s not that Northeastern people must be able to withstand the cold, but when the low temperature is around zero, they will always show a cocky look like “It used to be difficult to make water, except for Wushan, it’s not clouds.” Come.
I remember how cold it was back then in the Northeast. Drops of water turned into ice and urine turned into sticks. It was nothing like the low winter temperatures in the south.
I can't say this is wrong, but which one is more uncomfortable, the dampness and coldness in the south or the cold nose in the northeast? Most of these ten Northeasterners would say that I would rather go to the Northeast and freeze!
Southerners don’t wear long johns, and they can survive the cold even when the temperature is a few degrees above zero, but people from the Northeast don’t wear long johns or any big cotton pants when the temperature is a few degrees above zero or below zero. Try on pants?
Since Shang Zhen and the others arrived in the Yangtze River area, they rarely sleep in the house. They can't even sleep on a bed, so how can they sleep on a hot bed, not to mention that there is no hot bed here.
Now I don’t know who came up with such an idea of setting up a hot kang. It’s really great!
The water, mud, and bricks that I saw were all ready-made. The bricks were laid one after another, and yellow mud was smeared on top. The kang noodles that were put on the fire for a few hours were dry, and everyone could sit on the kang. Get a sweet sleep!
Now the brigade commander Liu Chengyi is leading a large force behind them, and they are planning how to take back Xiaobengbu. The Japanese army is unlikely to attack soon, so they must sharpen their swords and cut firewood, and build a kang. They can still afford the time.
As soon as Mr. Wang heard that there was a kang inside, he rushed inside first. When he passed by Shang Zhen, Shang Zhen glanced at him and said nothing.
Mr. Wang was walking in a hurry and accidentally bumped into Guan Tiedou, who was carrying such a high pile of bricks in front of him. Guan Tiedou was so angry that he cursed, "Who is it? Are you so blind?"
But when he saw it was Mr. Wang, he shut his mouth again.
"Why is my father-in-law rushing in so anxiously?" Xiao Dustpan, who also saw such a scene, said to himself.
"He wants the big bed he lived in in Nanjing." Shang Zhen, who was always honest, pointedly said in the little dustpan's ear.
"Hurry up, it's been a few months, and I see that his seed (seed) is struggling to produce a melon. I'd better find a way to find a wife on my own." Xiao Dustpan said calmly.
Shang Zhen smiled.
