Chapter 167: The Resident Situation (2)

Deng Xiaoqiang and Chen Aiguo looked at the chaotic study room, listening to everyone's gossip, but they were obviously very excited and looking forward to their future lives, and their hearts were mixed. Looking at Instructor Xiao who was sitting on the side with a worried face, and then thinking about the situation at this time, finally the two of them spoke at the same time: "Quiet! Could it be that when Japan surrendered, discipline was no longer needed? ”

Deng Xiaoqiang and Chen Aiguo still have a lot of prestige in their own team, as soon as these two people started to speak, although the people in the study room were still full of excitement, they quickly suppressed it, and the study room quieted down.

"Ladies and gentlemen, do you think that after Japan surrenders, everyone can go home and live a stable life?" Instructor Xiao said at the right time.

"Instructor, isn't it? Japan has surrendered, and there is no need to worry about them robbing us of the grain we grow, asking us to pay so many taxes, and there is no need to worry about those Japanese puppet soldiers entering the village to sweep at every turn, so we can go back to the village to farm and live with peace of mind? Some of the bold players were puzzled and said the doubts in their hearts.

"Hmmm! I know what's going on in everyone's hearts! But have you ever thought about whom, when you go back, most of the fields in the village will be in your hands? How much of your farming is really in your hands every year? Are you well fed and warmly clothed? Instructor Xiao asked earnestly.

"Most of the fields in the village belong to the landlords! At the end of the year, most of the grain has been rented, not to mention being full of food and clothing, it would be good to be able to fill your stomach with sweet potatoes and rice all year round! A member of the team responded.

"Sweet potatoes and rice all year round? You're beautiful! I remember that my family drank wild vegetable porridge for most of the year! Some of the team members remembered the days before the Japanese soldiers came, and their tones were a little low. Oh, yes. The instructor was right, although the Japanese soldiers were gone, they still couldn't live a good life of food and clothing when they returned to the village to farm, and those fields were not their own.

……

When the public was disagreeing, Instructor Xiao took advantage of the situation and asked, "If you want to be fed and clothed, you have to unite and continue to fight against the current ruling class, oust these exploiting classes, and establish a place where everyone has land to plant." A country where everyone has food and clothing. Only those of us here can live a well-fed and clothed life! So let's talk about it, can we put down the guns in our hands and go home to farm? ”

"Can't!" The team members in the study room roared in unison, and at the same time, the enthusiasm in their hearts was once again mobilized by Instructor Xiao.

"I knew everyone here was good! Now I have one more piece of good news. Our superior troops will soon send people down. Reorganize the team. Soon we will be part of the real New Fourth Army! Instructor Xiao took the opportunity to tell the news. As soon as the team members in the study room heard the news. Some people are excited, some people are worried.

"Instructor, are you telling the truth? Then we will also be part of the army in the future? The excited team member asked loudly.

"Yes! We'll be real soldiers then! Instructor Xiao replied with a smile.

"Instructor. Will we leave where we live and go somewhere else with the troops? The team members who were worried and reluctant to leave the place where they grew asked hesitantly.

"Haha, Chen Gouzi, you haven't grown up yet? Still clinging to your mother? Still want to feed? One of the team members laughed at the team member who asked about it.

"I only have my wife and a younger sister left in my family, so I'm not at ease!" The team member who was called Chen Gouzi defended a little angrily.

"What's not to worry about? When you get to the army, there will definitely be a military salary! When the time comes, won't you ask someone to bring back the military salary to your wife and sister? The ranks of the New Fourth Army are not like those of the Nationalist Army, which not only deducts military salaries harshly, but is also treated harshly by officers at higher levels at every turn. "Some members who have long been yearning for the New Fourth Army because of various gossip have turned their noses up at Chen Gouzi's thoughts.

"Instructor, will there really be a military salary by then?" Chen Gouzi asked with a look of surprise. It's no wonder that he is in the guerrillas, let alone handing out money, and even relying on the villagers from time to time to help him with food, so that he can last to this day.

"Regular troops, there should be military salaries! And the food and clothing should be all in the army! Not long after he enlisted in the army, because he was literate, he was quickly selected by the leaders at the time to study in the party school, and then he was sent to the rear to do basic work. But in this situation, he naturally won't say such things about himself, otherwise, isn't this his own platform?

"Since there is a military salary, what are you worried about? Anyway, staying in the village for a year and making ends up in the head can't earn the family's food, so it's better to follow the instructor and captain to the army, maybe you can be a petty officer when the time comes, and then you can return home! The already excited team members immediately shouted. Not to mention, this is very true, and the hearts of some hesitant people in the study room are also stirred up on the spot.

At the same time, the team members in the study room also fell into a heated discussion because of these words, and the whole study room was in an excited atmosphere, this time, Instructor Xiao had a smile on his face all the time, and Captain Deng and Chen Aiguo did not open their mouths to stop everyone's excitement.

The news that Instructor Xiao's group of people held a small meeting in the study room had already been reported to the captains of the third, fourth, and fifth teams. At the same time, Director Chen, who was entangled with these three teams, also learned about it early. When Instructor Xiao led people to a meeting in the study room, the captains of the third, fourth, and fifth teams and Director Chen, who was in charge of logistics, gathered in the logistics office.

"Someone from above is here today! I heard that the little girl named Xiaoju is back! In the morning, Deng Xiaoqiang also asked people to come to the logistics to check the grain and noodle inventory! Director Chen's face was a little worried.

"Someone from above? What is the purpose of inquiry? The captain of the first team asked urgently.

"I don't know, I haven't had time to inquire yet! Because the guy surnamed Deng asked people to check the grain and noodle inventory! After all, we all took the food and noodles home in private, and I was worried that the account would not be done well, or that other people would talk nonsense, so I kept there! Director Chen glanced at the three people in front of him with some displeasure.

It is said that everyone has a share of the food and noodles, but if something happens, the first person to bear the brunt of it is himself. I am a person from Chenjia Village, if it weren't for the fact that I secretly brought grain and noodles back. If you are seen by these people, you won't get mixed with them!

"Director Chen, what are you afraid of? There are so many people under us, how dare the one surnamed Xiao and the one surnamed Deng touch us? If we take all the men out of our hands, I think this guerrilla force will exist in name only! The captain of the third team said with a nonchalant expression.

"Hmph, those people under your command are just like that! I've heard people say that Xiao Ju's martial arts are very powerful! When you tried to find an excuse to get away the little food left by her mother, I heard that the family almost starved to death.

A few days ago, Xiaoju's mother went to find the person surnamed Xiao and made a fuss, asking the person who borrowed the food from her to return the food to her! You don't take it seriously, and now that her daughter is back, you think it's so easy to pass? Director Chen looked at the people in front of him as if he didn't care, he only hated himself in his heart, he knew that he wouldn't get that bit of food and noodles to go back, anyway, although there were only two vegetable balls a day, he couldn't starve the few people in the family.

"Director Chen, your guts are too small! No wonder you can only manage logistics! There are so many of us, and we have guns in our hands, what are you afraid of? What's the use of martial arts? Just one bullet, send her back to her hometown! The captain of the second team glanced at Director Chen contemptuously, and at the same time proudly pulled out the pistol on his body, and put it down on the table next to him with a snap.

"That's right!" Director Chen looked at the black pistol placed on the table, and only felt that his heart, which had been uneasy since he heard that the little girl named Xiaoju had returned, had also settled a little.

"Then tomorrow, if the surnamed Xiao asks you to return other people's food, you still won't pay it back?" Director Chen thought about it, and asked more, in fact, he wanted to persuade these people to find a way to repay the borrowed grain, why bother to offend a person with strong martial arts for so much food? If others don't come to the Ming and come to the Yin, what's the use of having a gun!

"Hmph, of course not! Do you think we borrowed grain because we liked that little food? Mainly I heard that the one named Xiaoju is in the same group as the surname Xiao, and we can't move the others, so the villagers can't squeeze it? We are doing this just to let the person who follows the surname Xiao see what will happen to him? The captain of the first team had a grim smile on his face.

"I see! So what are you going to do now? Director Chen asked with some annoyance.

"Didn't those two superiors leave yet? I heard from the people below that I heard that I lived in the house of the man named Xiaoju, and you said, if something happens to these two people in the station, can the person surnamed Xiao not be responsible? And the one named Xiaoju, can he get out of the way? The captain of the third team said with a smile.

"No! This is unacceptable! Something big will happen! Director Chen suddenly stood up in his seat with a shocked expression.

"The people of Chenjia Village are timid!" The captain of the second team looked at Director Chen with contempt, "What are you afraid of?" Didn't let you do it? Also, as long as we don't say, who knows what moves the hand? I don't want them to die, just to let them be hurt or frightened! Hmph, then the person surnamed Xiao will be justified and can't be explained! ”

"Yes, that's a good idea! Our people hide in the shadows and put hidden guns, and they will leave with one blow! Add some blockage to the one surnamed Xiao! "The captains of the first and third teams unanimously agreed with the idea of the captain of the second team.

"What's in it for you to do that?" Director Chen looked at the three people in front of him with some puzzlement.

"The benefits? You don't understand this! In these years, the more people in your hands and the more guns you have, the more nourishing your life will be. The guy surnamed Xiao is not from us here, so why should we all listen to him? Only the two fools, Deng Xiaoqiang and Chen Aiguo, are always like pugs, following behind the surnamed Xiao! The captain of the second team looked disdainful. (To be continued......) (To be continued......)
