If they encounter a bunker troublemaker, it will be enough for them to drink a pot. It was Qian Yifei who led the team, and he had to personally lead this platoon deep behind enemy lines, and Han Xing was familiar with him and agreed.

The plains of northwestern Shandong and Hunan are in stark contrast, one is lush green, the other is uncovered yellow.

Winter in the northwest of Lu was revealed. From a distance, the harvested fields open to the sky, revealing all the yellow and earthy skin, uncovered. The leaves of the trees on the roadside cast into the arms of the roots, and the bare canopy stood proudly in the wind. Nature has faded away its bizarre colors, and it shows people its true colors with holy **, which is pure and frank.

Winter is subtle in his bones and unassuming. It has gone through the fragrance, heat and hustle and bustle all the way, and finally calmed down with a curtain call. Like an old man with vicissitudes of life, the golden years have experienced a kind of fortitude and profundity, calmly facing the rise and fall of the past, bearing all the joys, sorrows and sorrows, reminiscing about the dreams of childhood in calmness, reflecting on the passion of youth, and taking stock of the gains and losses of middle age.

It is quiet like a virgin, burying several complex emotions deep in the bottom of the heart, hiding affection and yearning, holding back all impulses and catharsis, looking forward to the joy of spring in peace, looking forward to the pride of sowing seeds, and contemplating the beauty of life. Winter is less flashy and more restrained; Less fanatical, more dignified, clean air, thick accumulation.

Winter does not need to be celebrated, nor is it afraid of blows, because winter has calmly and generously presented itself. Everything is scattered, a faction is slaughtered, that is the direct face of nature; The west wind is blowing, the wind is sweeping the leaves, that is a display of personality, let it be long and short, and there are different opinions.

Some people say that Winter's face is cold, don't you know that it is disdain for all the showmanship in the world; Some people also say that Winter's demeanor is poignant, because there is too much tolerance and endless sweetness and bitterness.

The old and dilapidated village fell asleep in winter.

The houses in the village of Ruxi are almost identical: adobe houses, wooden mullioned windows with paper paste, and flat roofs with mud on wheat straw.

I don't know which sage invented adobe as a building material, which does not need to be fired, is simple to manufacture, and is warm in winter and cool in summer. Despite this, the old people in the village who are idle in winter have nothing to do, and they can still bask in the sun in the adobe houses.

Because it's warmer in the sun than in a house without a stove.

The Rusi people are also very simple to wear, except for black and white. Because cotton is abundant in the local area, the farmers weave their own cloth and bleached and dyeed it themselves. In the summer, it is white coarse cloth, and in winter, it is black cotton, and as long as you see the clothes of the Luxi people, you know that it is winter or summer.

In spring or autumn, it's even better. The lower body is wearing black cotton pants, and the upper body is bare-bones or wearing a single gown.

Han Xing's troops quietly entered from the Seventh District of Wuping County. There is a canal in the west and a Tuxiao River in the east, and you can only quietly enter Wuping County from Shizhuang and Nansun.

The original plan was to enter from the Shizhuang area, then enter Geng Maolin Village, and then follow the 7th, 6th, 5th, and 3rd districts of Wuping County, and take root in the Huanjiadian. In this way, it is far away from the first district of Wuping County, that is, the central area, because the central area is centered on Luo Zhuang and the large army of Luo Zhaorong's department of Qi Zixiu is stationed, and the farther away from him, the better.

Lao Jiaotong Qi Laoqing is in his fifties, his body is quite tough, wearing a black cotton jacket and black cotton pants, bareheaded, and covered with a white towel no matter how cold he is, standard Luxi characteristics. He is an old party member of Wuping, and he usually acts as a guide for important tasks. Along the way, you don't talk to him, he doesn't answer, and he looks like a stuffy gourd.

Han Xing asked Qi Laoqing: "How many people are in Luo Zhaorong's team?" ”

"One brigade, more than 3,000! Just you ......" Qi Laoqing looked at Han Xing's team with some suspicion.

Zhang Xiaosan couldn't listen to it anymore, and said to Qi Laoqing in a questioning tone: "Qi Jiao, do you think we have fewer people." Although the diamond is small, it can do porcelain work, and the bamboo pole is big and empty, so I don't believe that Luo Zhaorong's team can pee out one foot or two. ”

Qi Laoqing waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay, I won't quarrel with you!" My job is to be a guide. With that, he went on his way.

Han Xing asked Qi Laoqing again, "Is Luo Zhaorong's team very capable of fighting?" ”

"How do you say this," Qi Laoqing said, "they are very capable of treating ordinary people." Treat the Japanese, there is no fighting. Treating the Eighth Route Army, the old Seventh Regiment, the Fifth Brigade and the advance team are all gone, which is called the tiger leaving the mountain and the monkey dominating. ”

"What kind of person is Luo Zhaorong?" Han Xing asked.

Qi Laoqing talked about Luo Zhaorong's history unhurriedly.

Luo Zhaorong is a native of Luozhuang, North Wuping, born as a ruffian, and before the Anti-Japanese War, he was a squad leader of the Kuomintang county government security team. In the spring of 1939, he participated in the Fifth Brigade of the Eighth Route Army's Advance Column and served as the leader of the Second Squadron. Later, he left the team due to illness and did not return, so he contacted the scattered members of the five brigades, raised their own guns, and pulled up a small team. Gather at night and scatter and move around the county.

Later, the Japanese army occupied Wuping, Luo Zhaorong publicly surrendered to the Japanese army, and was appointed as the commander of the 1st District Self-Defense Regiment.

Luo Zhaorong's strategy was to openly defect to the Japanese army, secretly maintain contact with the enemy workers in Wuping County, and resist the harassment and invasion of Qi Zixiu's troops externally. Therefore, this period of time has provided a relatively safe environment for the activities of the Wuping County Party Committee and the party organizations in various districts.

At that time, the enemy workers in Wuping County were inexperienced, and it was inevitable that there would be mistakes in their work. The Kuomintang took advantage of all this to sow discord between Luo Zhaorong and the Communist Party, causing a gradual change in Luo Zhaorong's thinking, and his relationship with the Communist Party gradually developed from cold to suspicious.

Coincidentally, a while ago, the three captains directly under Luo Zhaorong, Chen Shizhong, Ma Zhaorong, Xie Xingshu and others, because of conflicts with Luo Zhaorong, led troops to mutiny and attempted to assassinate Luo Zhaorong one night. After the incident, Luo Zhaorong suspected the Communist Party's actions. As a result, contact with the Communist Party was severed.

He first killed Du Guangrong, a Communist Party member of Du Zhuang, as a sign of revenge. Since then, the prelude to the massacre of the puppet army in Wuping County has been unveiled.

Luo Zhaorong felt that it was not enough to have the skin of the puppet army, but also the skin of the Kuomintang, so he surrendered to Qi Zi's repair department and was reorganized into the 11th Brigade by Qi Zi.

Can the Japanese army not know about this, but Luo Zhaorong** is exactly what they can't ask for. So I just turned a blind eye and pretended not to know.

In this way, Luo Zhaorong's team had two military uniforms, one was tile-gray, Kuomintang clothes. The other was grass green, the clothes of the Imperial Army.

With the help of the Kuomintang's gray skin, Luo Zhaorong rapidly expanded his troops, and soon grew to more than 3,000 people and a brigade. With the help of the Imperial Army, the Japanese army was not very good at them, and if the Japanese told them to do something, they would do it.

After listening to Qi Laoqing's introduction to Luo Zhaorong, Han Xing said for a long time: "It's so complicated, this Luo Zhaorong is really the team of the Communist Party, the team of the Imperial Army, and the team of the Kuomintang diehards!" ”

The villages here are dense, three miles and one village, and it is impossible to avoid the villages.

Just when there was still a mile away from Geng Maolin Village, suddenly several gunshots rang out, cutting through the sleeping Luxi Plain.

A soldier from Wu Xiaoming's vanguard platoon came to report: "Report to County Magistrate Han, a stubborn army has blocked the entrance of Geng Maolin's village, it seems that there are a lot of people, there is a battalion. ”

Han Xing scolded: "It seems that it is not good to be a teacher, as soon as I go out, I will meet this mourning star, I will come to meet this mourning star." ”

Han Xing rushed to the front of the team, and sure enough, a unit in gray military uniform in front of him blocked the front. The color of their uniforms is almost the same as the color of the Han Xing army, if it weren't for the different thoughts, others would still think it was the Eighth Route Army!

They had all dug up simple fortifications, and they seemed to have been prepared for a long time. One by one, the soldiers lay on the ground, their guns pointed at Han Xing's team.

Han Xing's team and the top platoon were already lying on the ground, ready for battle.

Zhang Xiaosan shouted loudly and asked, "What part of the troops in front are you?" ”

The other side replied: "Luo Zhaorong's team of the 11th Brigade of the Shandong Provincial Government Security of the National Revolutionary Army, which team are you?" ”

Zhang Xiaosan said: "We are the team led by Han Xing of the Eighth Route Army of the National Revolutionary Army and the Southern Expeditionary Army. Could you please come and speak to your Brigadier Luo Zhaorong? ”

There was chaos for a while, and he shouted, "Then please also invite your commander Han Xing to speak." You nameless juniors, Brigade Commander Luo will not talk nonsense with you. ”

Han Xing had no choice but to shout to them: "I am Han Xing, the commander of the Southern Expeditionary Army, please ask your Brigade Commander Luo to come and speak?" ”

After a while, a rough voice shouted on the ground: "I am Luo Zhaorong of the 11th Brigade, it turns out that I am the commander of Han Xing, didn't you participate in the Battle of Changsha in Hunan, why did you come back?" came back, why did you come to Wuping County again? ”

Han Xing was a little angry in his heart, and scolded in a low voice, you don't fight devils, don't talk about it, and you are here to engage in friction with the Eighth Route Army, but he just said: "Oh, we have a mission, passing by here, please get out of the way of your army, we are allies, and we are friendly with each other." ”

Said over there: "No, Commander Qi has said first, the troops of the Eighth Route Army are not allowed to pass by here, and we have no choice!" ”

Han Xing looked at their troops, there was also a battalion, and after thinking about it, with his own strength, he could rush over, so he shouted to them: "If Brigade Commander Luo really doesn't let us go over to resist the Japanese, then I'm sorry." You will bear all the consequences arising therefrom. ”

Luo Zhaorong shouted again: "Commander Han, do you want to use force?" If you want to use force, then I'm sorry. Please look at your left and right, whether you can escape from the palm of the Buddha's hand, not necessarily! ”

Han Xing looked to the left, and about a battalion of recalcitrant troops rushed out from Daduanzhuang on the left, and then looked to the right, and from the direction of Xuzhuang on the right, about a battalion of recalcitrant troops also rushed out. They had been tightly surrounded on three sides.
