After settling down, Lu Gang asked Xiaolin to take the person who could paddle the water to row the bamboo raft across the river again, and waited for the old man to bring the people over by the river.

Before leaving, Lu Gang told Xiaolin to take the old gentleman and Lu Wei together, saying that he had something to ask him.

According to the plan discussed by the old man, at dusk, he came to the river with a group of people, at this time, Geng Zitang and they came with a few bamboo rafts, and put them in the river, and people went up in an orderly manner.

The old man said, "There are still some people on the mountain, and these bamboo rafts are not enough, and it seems that it will not be possible to send all these people there tomorrow." ”

"No problem, old man, tonight I will lead the soldiers to fight all night, and tomorrow this time I promise to let the people who have not yet withdrawn from the mountain cross the river." Geng Zitang said.

"Sir, don't worry. With Brother Geng here, are you afraid that you won't be able to complete the task? Kobayashi said.

"Okay, you can leave these strong laborers behind and work together." The old man said.

Geng Zitang looked at them, walked to his side and whispered in his ear: "Old man, they have worked hard all day, so they don't have to worry about it at night." ”

"I mean, who of you wants to go back at night?" The old man didn't answer Geng Zitang's words, but just asked loudly to those mountain people: "Camp Commander Geng said that you have been busy all day, let you go back to rest, there are still so many villagers on the mountain who still have to cross the river and are waiting for our raft, you say, do you go back or continue to stay." ”

"Stay." All the mountain people spoke in unison.

Geng Zitang's heart was excited, his throat choked, and this Northeast man almost burst into tears.

What a good person, simple and honest, the whole people resist the war, work with one heart and one mind, use their strength together, and their hearts are tied together. In his heart, he secretly thanked Lu Wei for his propaganda work during this time.

Geng Zitang said: "Old man, thank you, thank you, folks." ”

"There's one thing that's really hard." The old man said: "Battalion Commander Geng, just now I heard some villagers say that there are still people on the mountain who are reluctant to leave, and they are reluctant to leave here, and I have to go back to the mountain first. ”

Geng Zitang said, "Well, then please let you be old." After a while, everyone here has crossed the river, and I will look for you again. ”

As he was talking, Xiao Lin saw Lu Wei and Tianhao walking towards this side.

Lu Wei happily shouted as she ran, "Brother Geng, we're back." ”

"Lu Wei, I heard that there are still some people on the mountain who are reluctant to go?" Geng Zitang asked Lu Wei.

Lu Wei nodded and said, "Yes." ”

"Zitang, I have to go, go up the mountain, these donkeys really have to let me go out in person." The old man finished speaking and was leaving. Lu Wei stopped him and said with a smile: "Old man, they all agreed." ”

"Really, why didn't you say it earlier, it made the old gentleman unhappy." Geng Zitang complained about Lu Wei.

The old man smiled: "You are a little girl who is so powerful, you can actually say that those dead brains are alive, haha, in the end, you are a person from the Communist Party." ”

Xiao Lin smiled and said, "Old man, she is still a talented girl in our middle school." ”

"Just a talented girl? Brother Xiaolin. Lu Wei tilted his head and said to him with a smile.

Xiao Lin reacted and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, it's still a beauty." ”

Everyone laughed. At this time, Geng Zitang said to the old man: "Everything here is done, old man, you don't have to stay here, you and Lu Wei go across the river first." ”

"That's not good, as long as there is one person on the mountain, I won't leave." He did not agree to cross the river.

Geng Zitang was about to speak, Xiao Lin remembered Lu Gang's words at this time, and he said: "Old man, this is also what my brother said, when he came, he asked me to call you back, by the way, and you, Lu Wei, your brother also asked you to go over." ”

"So, what about Brother Geng?" Lu Wei looked at Geng Zitang and said.

Kobayashi shook his head.

Lu Wei didn't do it, and said, "If Brother Geng doesn't go, I won't go either, I want to accompany him." ”

Xiao Lin said: "Whatever you want, anyway, I passed on your brother's words, it's your business whether to go or not, if your brother loses his temper, don't blame me." ”

Lu Wei still pouted and listened without saying a word. Xiao Lin glanced at Geng Zitang and left.

Geng Zitang said to Lu Wei: "Listen to your brother." ”

Lu Wei reluctantly followed the old man and Xiaolin on the raft. Tianhao saw that his father was gone, and he was going to follow, but he was stopped by the old man: "Stay here and follow Camp Commander Geng, don't make trouble with Lao Tzu." ”

Tianhao stopped talking, and lazily followed behind Geng Zitang's ass, where Geng Zitang went, he followed.

As Lao Yang and the others expected, when the old man took some villagers to the riverside, it was dusk, and the scene of Xiao Lin and Geng Zitang on the riverside was seen by Takeshita and Yamada standing on the wall.

The people on the riverside looked dense, and it was impossible to see who they were.

"Yamada-kun, the hundred or so people Watanabe said, aren't they?" Takeshita asked.

Yamada said, "You mean the New Fourth Army? Well, I guess so. He replied vaguely.

"Yamada-kun, how did you do it?" Takeshita asked.

Yamada said: "Don't worry, some good people have been gathered to do it, you see, they are still doing it in that bamboo forest, and they didn't ask them to go back at noon, so they asked their families to send food there to eat." ”

"Okay, Yamada-kun, time is tight, you see that the New Fourth Army on the other side of the river has crossed the river, why are they not here to attack us? Hurry up, if we wait for those New Fourth Army to come, won't we become turtles in an urn? It's been so long, and I haven't seen anyone send weapons and ammunition from above, and there is not much ammunition in the warehouse. Last time, we were robbed a lot by the New Fourth Army and blew up all our motorboats. Takeshita looked in the telescope in the direction of Yamada's finger, then looked back at the vast river and said gloomily.

Yamada told him that in fact, people were sent from above to deliver ammunition, but they were all robbed by the sneak attack of the New Fourth Army in the middle of the road, and now there are rampant activities of the New Fourth Army on the water and land, coming and going without a trace, and the above is also a headache to death.

"Yamada-kun, we have to act quickly, don't look at me like that. I'm not afraid of death, don't get me wrong, to be honest, when I was in my hometown, I liked such a place, with mountains and water, flowers and birds, what a wonderful scenery. I loved it the first time I came to China. However, after a long time, he was harassed by a handful of New Fourth Army troops from time to time, and his mood was gone, and he was disturbed by them, and he was bent on destroying the New Fourth Army. That battle across the river was really enjoyable, although Nishijima was killed by the New Fourth Army, but I killed a lot of the New Fourth Army, they were our enemies, I killed them, I felt that it was an honor, and it was the glory of each of our imperial armies to make contributions to the Great Japanese Empire, Yamada, isn't it? Takeshita said so much and then asked Yamada Michi.

"Yes. But why did you leave here? Isn't there still the New Fourth Army here? Yamada is still wrestling with it.

"Didn't I tell you? I don't want to play hide and seek with these stragglers, I want to fight the enemy's regular army, and I don't want my soldier brothers to leave their lives here in vain, you know? Don't say it, Yamada-kun, do what you need to do and get out of here. When Takeshita saw Yamada mention it again, he was upset and yelled at Yamada loudly and left without looking back.

When Yamada saw Takeshita like this, the boss was unhappy in his heart, but there was no way to stop Takeshita's thoughts, so he followed him down the city wall with a calm face.

On the way down the city wall to the teahouse, Takeshita said, "Yamada, let's go, go to the teahouse to make a bowl of tea and drink." After Takeshita finished speaking, he turned back to Yamada and said.

Yamada responded absentmindedly, but in his heart he was thinking about where the New Fourth Army on the other side of the river would go? Could it be in a foreign village? He heard Takeshita talk about the affairs of the outer village, which was not very far from the outer village, and he was a little worried that the New Fourth Army would sneak attack them at night?

He didn't dare to relax, and after drinking tea, he told Watanabe to be vigilant and strengthen patrols to prevent a sneak attack by the New Fourth Army, Watanabe moved all the guns and ammunition in the ammunition depot to the teahouse, and then arranged a few machine guns on the dock, on the city wall, and even in the east corner. When he saw this with Takeshita, Yamada felt a trace of sadness in his heart, and he suddenly found that Takeshita seemed to have become a frightened bird.

Geng Zitang and the others did not wait for the dusk of the next day, the bamboo raft they made was enough for the people on the mountain to cross the river overnight.

Everyone is naturally happy to see each other. After settling down the villagers, they naturally said some irrelevant things and didn't mention them.

The next day, Tianhao, who couldn't get up early, went to the entrance of the village with a gun, and met a sentry to block him. Tianhao was unwilling, and after he turned back, he bypassed a few rooms and went to the mountain.

Lu Wei once mentioned to him when he was on the mountain that there were wild goats on this mountain, and he thought, no, after crossing the river, he went up the mountain alone. After searching for a long time, I didn't meet a hare, and by this time, it was already dawn.

He was a little tired and didn't know how far he had walked in the mountains. Tianhao was worried that his father was anxious to find him and wanted to go back, but when he turned around, his eyes lit up, and he saw two wild goats, which were leisurely chewing food there.

Tianhao was secretly happy in his heart, his mouth opened with a smile, he didn't dare to squeak, he quietly walked there with his mouth open, and when he was not far from them, he picked up his gun.

The two wild goats seemed to see Tianhao and ran forward, annoying Tianhao so much that he couldn't do it, he shouted to stop, where would the wild goat listen to him, at this time, Tianhao also came to the spirit, where can the prey in hand make it slip away, he spread his foot and chased it.

As if to tease Tianhao, the wild goats stopped running and stopped, and hung Tianhao's appetite high, he was reluctant, and continued to chase up, and when he chased to the side of the bamboo forest, he stopped, because he saw the two wild goats standing next to a big stone and looking around, maybe to see if Tianhao was chasing over, they couldn't see Tianhao, at this time, Tianhao had climbed on a small stone on the slope and raised a gun at them.

"Bang." At the sound of a gunshot, the three wild goats jerked their heads up, followed by another gunshot, and they realized the gravity of the situation, reacted quickly and fled frantically towards the top of the mountain.

Tianhao saw that the wild goat had fled under his gun, and he was so angry that he was going to die, and when he got up and wanted to chase after him, he couldn't get up, and turned his head to see that there were four bright bayonets against his head, and his eyes were yellow.

"Devil?!" Tianhao suddenly realized that he had fallen into a catastrophe.

It turned out to be a devil who brought more than a dozen people to the bamboo forest to cut bamboo and make a raft. When they came to the woods, they suddenly heard two gunshots. Watanabe, who led the team, heard it, and hurriedly ran quietly towards the place where Tianhao was lying down, and really saw a person lying on the side of a stone shooting at the goat in the middle of the mountain, Watanabe hurriedly let the other devils quietly touch it, maybe Tianhao was too focused, and their footsteps were not felt at all, Watanabe surrounded him with devils.

Tianhao wanted to get up and stand up to resist, but he was knocked to the ground by a devil with the butt of a gun, and rolled down the hillside, and the spear in his hand was lost far away. Tianhao, who had been rolling, began to calm down, and after stopping, he lay on the ground motionless as if he was dead.

Immediately, I heard the footsteps of the devil in the forest getting closer and closer, and raised his eyes to look forward, when the devil just stopped in front of him, he suddenly jumped a fish, supported his hands on the ground, and his body bounced up, and he raised his legs, and was kicked to the ground by his sudden kick in Watanabe behind, Tianhao pinched the devil in front of him with a speedy movement, but unexpectedly, the devil on the side raised his spear at the same time and stabbed him, only to hear the sound of fluttering, and the devil's long bayonet was deeply inserted into Tianhao's two ribs.

"Ahh Tianhao shouted, the devil in his hand did not break free, but was pinched tightly by Tianhao's two big hands, stabbed by a knife, Tianhao's whole body tightened, concentrated all his strength to the tips of his fingers, and pushed his left and right thumbs to the devil's throat, and suddenly, the blood gushing out of the devil's throat poured into Tianhao's face and chest, and the two devils next to him were stunned and forgot to pull out the spear, at this time, Tianhao's hand was loosened, and the dead devil fell on his back on the slope.

In extreme anger and severe pain, when Tianhao turned around to swing his fist at the devil on his right, the gun was too long, far away from the devil, and his hand was not enough. At this time, I saw the angry Tianhao retract his fist and grabbed the stabs on both sides with both hands and wanted to pull them out, but the devil still held Tianhao deadly, and the blood flowed out along the knife edge, staining the large pieces of dead loess under his feet and the verdant bamboo body around him.

Tianhao and the two devils were in a stalemate like this, but he didn't expect Watanabe, who was kicked down by Tianhao, picked up the gun and ran up, stabbing him in the back of the waist, Tianhao's hand holding the two barrels softened, his eyes widened, and he stared ahead.

The three devils pulled out their guns suddenly, three streams of blood spurted out, and the young man Tianhao fell down with a bang.
