Captain Sun of the county brigade didn't sleep all night, and it wasn't until dawn that he completed Xu San's commission.
I put down the tools in my hands, wiped the sweat from my forehead, and looked at the results of my labor in front of me. I was quite satisfied and should be ready for delivery.
He has been busy this night, busy building a basketball court, and what's more, it's a basketball court for the devils.
Last night, Li Si informed that the Japanese would raid tomorrow and asked him to arrange manpower to convey the information.
It was a matter of course to convey the information, and Captain Sun quickly arranged the manpower to do it.
After arranging the correspondent, Captain Sun was gearing up for a big fight, because since the Japanese came to raid, it was natural that they would occupy favorable terrain and fight hard with the Japanese.
However, reality soon hit him mercilessly.
Xu San asked to build a basketball court overnight, saying that he would have fun with the Japanese soldiers and civilians tomorrow.
After hearing the news, Captain Sun almost overturned the table, "The labor and management are no longer working. This captain will do whatever he wants."
In fact, it’s not surprising that Captain Sun is angry, because since he met Xu San, his fighting style has changed, becoming less and less like a guerrilla, and as long as he and Xu San participate in battles, he will No shots were fired.
If he didn't shoot, he didn't shoot. Fortunately, he was there when the trophies were seized, so he could be called the captain of the transport brigade.
But now?
Not only is the fighting gone, but the soldiers and civilians also have fun playing with the Japanese.
What a joy, it would be strange if he could see the Japanese and enjoy themselves.
"Hey~ Old Sun, I'm afraid your title of transport captain will be changed after today. What should it be changed to? Don't our army have a special organization for making fun of people? Yes, it's called the Art Troupe." Lian Wushang hugged him Machine Gun was speaking sarcastically on the side.
"Go away! If I want to do it to you, your machine gun was also given to me by others, so don't take advantage of others and stop working." Captain Sun yelled.
Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel, Li Si quickly reconciled, "Actually, the comrade in the group is quite nice. He also sent us guns and bullets, and taught us how to build tunnels. Just do whatever he says." After all, the nature of our work is different, we are fighting, but others have to maintain their relationship with the Japanese in order to obtain more information and hand it over to the organization."
Captain Sun walked around the table twice: "After finishing the work tonight, I will leave the village at dawn tomorrow. I can't perform this play."
Li Si didn't force him, knowing that if he forced Captain Sun to stay here, he might reveal his secret to the Japanese.
Captain Sun temporarily calmed down, but Lian Wushang was eager to try and planned to play a role: "It's okay, he can't play it, I'll play it!"
This suggestion drew an eye roll from Li Si, because although Lian Wushang liked acting, he was the kind of person who said he was good but showed timidity as soon as he came on stage.
Looking at Lian Wushang, Li Si said with a mischievous smile: "Wushang, I guess you won't be able to perform in tomorrow's play. You have other tasks! This task is quite special. Only you can handle it?"
Li Si's smile made Lian Wushang a little scared. He was not afraid of death, but he was afraid that Li Si would give him some stupid mission. "What special mission must I do? Let me tell you, the mission is not good, I Don’t do it.”
"Comrade Wushang! I want to criticize you. Since it is a task, you must accept it unconditionally. Don't be picky!" Captain Sun said sternly.
"It's not that difficult for you!" Li Si said honestly.
"It's not difficult, but it's not easy. Let's put it bluntly. Anyway, revolutionary comrades are not afraid of hardship, fatigue, and death."
"It's nothing. I just want you to catch a wild boar and keep it alive! Don't worry, it won't be a trouble for you. Look, I've prepared the anesthetic." Li Si said and took it out of his arms. A paper package.
"I..." Lian Wushuang wanted to curse, but he kept his mouth shut, and then took the medicine bag, "Why are we catching wild boars? You can always tell me this, right?"
Li Si scratched his eyebrows, "This wild boar is a prey prepared for the Japanese officers tomorrow, so try your best not to let it get hurt, especially gunshot wounds. It's best if it can still move around when you release it tomorrow." Jumping."
"Okay, with your anesthetic, this really isn't a big deal." After saying that, Lian Wushang hugged his beloved machine gun and squatted aside, wondering where to catch the wild boar.
Captain Sun took out a map from the cabinet, spread it on the table, and then lit up the kerosene lamp, "By the way, did the comrades in the group say how powerful the Japanese raids will be this time?"
"He doesn't know the specifics. He can only deduce that our efforts in this direction are not very strong. It should be similar to last time. Otherwise, he would not arrange for us to have fun with the Japanese soldiers and civilians. The longer we delay the Japanese here, the more likely we will be in other villages." The safer my fellow villagers are, I think doing this is indeed more valuable than fighting the Japanese with real swords and guns."
"I understand this, otherwise I wouldn't listen to what he said! Let's get down to business, did he say how long this raid will last?" Captain Sun continued to ask.
"Three or four days," Li Si replied.
"Hey, it would be great if all the fellow villagers could think like you." Captain Sun sighed. He also understood the truth, but some fellow villagers just didn't understand. They had to fight with the devils for the three melons and two dates, and in the end they were harmed. He lost his life.
Li Si also understood why Captain Sun said this, because they had seen this situation more than once these days. Although they had also told the fellow villagers not to fight with the Japanese, the fellow villagers still reacted after seeing their food being robbed. Some people were not afraid of death and went up to fight the Japanese.
The result can be imagined. In the end, they basically died under the Japanese bayonets.
Everyone is afraid of death, and there are a few people who don't bow their heads in the face of extremely vicious Japanese. Who would fight to the death unless they are forced to a desperate end?
The villagers don't have much food to begin with. If it is taken away, the whole family may starve to death.
There may be a glimmer of hope if you go up there and fight hard, but if you don't fight hard, even this glimmer of hope will be gone.
Captain Sun put away the map and took out the carpenter's tools from the cabinet. "Let's go and wake up people, and do the work when it's time. Li Si, you'll make a list later, and list those with bad tempers." , pick out those who don’t know who they are when they see the Japanese, and I will take them out to practice tomorrow.”
Li Si nodded, "I know this well. There are still more than 70 people in Langcun, and more than 20 need to be taken away."
"Okay, you can arrange this. Wu Shang, stop holding your broken machine gun and come with me to carry the wood."
Captain Sun said he was dissatisfied, but he packed up his tools and went to the drying field to build a rack.
Time is very tight, and two basketball stands cannot be set up in a short time.
The wind at night is slightly cool, and the sky is full of stars, twinkling in the night sky.
Captain Sun looked at the round moon in the sky and then remembered that today is the fifteenth day.
