At dawn, Xie Tian's family sat together for breakfast. Xu Xiuzhen and Tang Haoer made it. Each wanted to make another meal for the other, so the breakfast was a richer one.
While eating the meal, they spoke very little. The couple tried their best not to shed tears, but eventually the tears fell.
Xie Tian sighed softly and stood up: "I'm done eating. You guys eat slowly while I go prepare it."
In fact, there was nothing to prepare. Everything that should be arranged had been arranged. Xie Tian just wanted to avoid it and let them talk more.
Xu Shiyou walked into the courtyard with a golden sword. He smiled and asked Xie Tian who had just walked out of the house: "Are you ready? Let's go when you are ready."
Xu Shiyou was so anxious that if he hadn't waited for Tang Jingyao and his family, he would have returned to the brigade headquarters last night.
Fighter opportunities are fleeting. With such a big change, the head of the headquarters will definitely have big combat arrangements. Xu Shiyou can't wait to fight a big battle.
Xie Tian took Xu Shiyou's arm and sat down on the stone table and bench in the courtyard. He looked into Xu Shiyou's eyes and said solemnly: "Brother Xu, let's open the skylight and speak openly without being secretive. I'm used to being free. I don’t want to be restricted too much, so I think I’m fine as I am now. Don’t worry, I only focus on fighting the Japanese. As long as the Japanese are beaten away, I will be ready to disarm and return to the fields. I will pick chrysanthemums under the east fence and see Nanshan leisurely. days."
Xu Shiyou was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Xie Tian to say this to him. He originally planned to come over early to avoid others and convey the leaders' wishes to Xie Tian, but now he was blocked by Xie Tian and couldn't say anything. .
Xu Shiyou was stunned for a while, laughed and patted Xie Tian on the arm: "It's better that you live a free and unrestrained life, and it's better not to join this world. When I get tired, I will go to accompany you someday. The two of us will lie under the peach blossom tree with a bruised nose and face. Drink heavily.”
Xu Shiyou was born in the Shaolin Temple, which is a martial arts sect. Xu Shiyou naturally has a Jianghu aura about him.
Xie Tian laughed: "Okay, it would be an honor for me to fight with Brother Xu."
Xie Tian had indeed grown up, and being able to be brothers with Xu Shiyou, the founding general, was something he never dreamed of.
Fortunately, he is Xie Baoqing now, and he is the same age as Xu Shiyou. Xu Shiyou is only thirty-eight years old this year, and is not much older than the Xie Baoqing that Xie Tian is carrying. It is appropriate to call him brother.
Xie Tian confessed frankly, and Xu Shiyou finally understood Xie Tian's thoughts. This man, just like Mr. Pang Yuan from Ping'an County, would not join any political party. Although Xu Shiyou had many regrets in his heart, he could be considered to have let go of one of his worries. .
We can't win over Xie Baoqing, so the Chongqing government can't win over him either. As long as he is willing to continue to fight the Japanese, that's fine. Fighting the Japanese away first is the top priority. Maybe he has changed his mind after fighting away the Japanese. Just keep in close contact. alright.
This is also a major event, and Xu Shiyou has to rush back to report to the chief.
Tang Jingyao's family of four heard Xu Shiyou's voice in the courtyard and knew it was time to leave.
With a sigh, Tang Jingyao walked out of the room and greeted Xu Shiyou.
Outside Dagu Town, Xie Tian, Tang Hao'er and others watched as the backs of Xu Shiyou, Tang Jingyao and others disappeared into the shadow of the vast Dagus Mountain. Tang Hao'er finally couldn't help but turned around and threw herself into Xie Tian's arms and burst into tears.
Xie Tian held Tang Haoer in his arms and patted her back gently. It was a helpless choice because of the fate.
After everyone left, Xu Lixin finally had the opportunity to have a long talk with Xie Tian. However, after learning Xie Tian's intentions, Xu Lixin left Dagu Town in disappointment to report to his superiors.
Watching Xu Lixin leave, Xie Tian's lips curled into a smile.
In fact, he can also choose to mediate between the two parties and pretend to be a snake, but that is no less than walking a tightrope, and a slight mistake will be fatal.
Rather than take that risk, it would be better to be as free and easy as now, but his team can no longer expand as before. If it expands further, it will definitely arouse the fear of all parties.
Xie Tian now has a team of more than 2,000 people. According to the regular battle order of the national army, it is a full regiment configuration, and the firepower is stronger than any regiment-level unit of the army. It is enough for Xie Tian. .
Now that the surrounding area is basically worry-free, Xie Tian can use this buffer time to reorganize his army, and also take time to help the people of Zhangzhuang and Dagu Town reorganize their homes. As for the fighting and killing in the outer area, Just figure it out for yourself first.
Xie Tian stood still and made a gesture to show everyone around him. You see, I am just a little warlord, and my vision is only this one-third of an acre of land. You should be relieved this time, right?
The training of the team was left to Qin Fen and Wu Wenhua. The top priority now was to help the villagers in Dagu Town who lost their homes to rebuild their homes, and to resettle the Henan refugees they had accepted.
Xie Tian's requirements for Qin Fen were not high. The rebuilt Dagu Town must be all blue bricks and large tiled houses. We have no shortage of people and plenty of strength. We burn the bricks ourselves and build the houses ourselves. Xiao Man's father Isn't Lao Man a mason? Let him lead everyone to work together. When Dagu Town is rebuilt, I'm thinking of setting up a construction company for you, and we can go out and get jobs.
Qin Fen's face turned dark when he heard Xie Tian's request. Captain, what do you mean, do you want us to put down our guns and become masons instead?
Xie Tian laughed and left.
This is a broken world, full of scars, and rebuilding will take a long time.
Ping'an County, which was almost leveled by Li Yunlong in a battle, is also being rebuilt.
There was a large-scale battle involving tens of thousands of people, and it was also a siege. The innocent people had no chance to escape from the battlefield, and many died in the melee.
Houses that were destroyed by bombings can be rebuilt and even more beautiful, but the dead will never come back.
Ping'an County's ten houses and nine empty ones are still 20 to 30 percent empty. Although the remaining houses have built their homes again on the ruins, almost every house is shrouded in gloom and mist.
Seeing the shattered Ping'an County in front of him, Tang Haoer couldn't help but sigh and looked at Xie Tian who was walking beside him.
Compared with the people in Ping'an County, the people in Dagu Town are really lucky.
After a great war, their homes were burned to the ground, but everyone survived unharmed.
As long as people are alive, there is hope in life.
Tang Haoer discovered that her big bandit was the one she really loved. In every battle, the first thing he thought about was people. How to keep his people alive. He regarded every soldier and every common person related to him as a human being. He lost his loved ones and used his body to carve out a space for all those closely related to him to survive.
As if he noticed that Tang Hao'er was looking at him, Xie Tian, who was wearing a satin robe and a top hat, looked at Tang Hao'er funny and asked, "Why are you looking at me like this?"
Tang Haoer smiled: "I want to see it, but can't I?"
Faced with Tang Haoer's naughty answer, Xie Tian burst into laughter.
