Since the arrival of the Japanese troops on 23 August, fighting between the Chinese and Japanese sides has continued in the Shanghai area, and the struggle for the two important military positions of Luodian and Baoshan has continued.

As of 31 August, the Chinese and Japanese sides had fought five or six battles, large and small, basically one battle a day, and the casualties on both sides were extremely heavy, and more than half of the troops of the 87th, 88th, and 33rd divisions of the Central Army's German Armament Division were killed or wounded.

By mid-September, the total strength of the two sides had reached 1 million, of which more than 700,000 on the Chinese side and more than 250,000 on the Japanese side.

Therefore, the artillery fire in Shanghai has continued and has never stopped.

What was originally just a battle for battle gradually developed into a decisive battle.

The sky over Shanghai has always been gray, and the smell of gunpowder will not dissipate for several days.

The Japanese army is also difficult to ride at this moment, they did not expect that the Chinese army, which has always been conservative, will fight back desperately this time.

On this side, the big battlefield in the Songhu area kept exchanging fire, and on the other side, in a calm small mountain village, because of the arrival of a small group of lost little devils, the most fierce resistance broke out.

Suzhou area, a small mountain village near Suzhou Creek, there are less than 100 households in this mountain village, among which the elderly, children, and young girls are the majority, and the young and middle-aged people in the village either go to other places to earn a living and support their families, or go to join the army to serve the country, and very few stay at home.

In the evening of that day, about 30 little devils got lost and strayed here because they lost their way.

At this moment, these thirty little devils, one by one, looked yellow and thin, and they didn't know that they had been hungry for a few days, and they couldn't wait to rush in after seeing the small mountain village.

The captain of this team is called Takahashida, who is Chinese New Year's Eve and one year old, can speak Chinese, and loves Chinese culture very much.

"When you go in, don't hurt the people, just some water and food, do you hear? Takahashida instructed his companions as he walked, "In every mountain village here, there will be a village protection committee that is freely organized, and the main purpose of these village protection associations is to protect the people of the village chief, so we must not do anything wrong in the village." ”

Takahashida is right, during the war, the village will have a self-organized security force, in order to prevent the arrival of the little devils, and the small mountain village they are entering naturally has a so-called security meeting.

The security club is composed of young adults from the village, and the weapons used are also self-made earthen guns and earthen cannons.

And this small mountain village, because of the serious loss of young adults, so the security will not be strong, only about ten people, and the oldest of these ten people is only twenty-three years old, and the youngest one is only seventeen years old, belonging to the boy scouts who do not have many fighter jets.

And the leader of this pair of Boy Scouts, and the oldest person is called Wu Hao, Wu Hao is the only son in the family, so his parents have been reluctant to let Wu Hao go to a certain industry outside, and they are not willing to let Wu Hao join the army, so Wu Hao has been staying in the village, but Wu Hao is an idle person, so he took other partners in the village and drummed up a so-called security meeting.

This security meeting has two earthen guns, fifteen bullets, a repeating crossbow, a ***, and the rest are a few big knives, and these equipment are all the strength of the security meeting.

There is only one road leading to this village, and Wu Hao and the others stay at the entrance of the village all day long, not allowing outsiders to enter, so as to protect the safety of other people in the village.

At this moment, Wu Hao and the others were guarding the intersection as usual, don't look at the sky, but no one went home, very conscientious.

At this moment, the youngest child in the security team ran to Wu Hao from outside the village in a panic, looking extremely flustered and panting.

"What's wrong? Dog, did you meet a wolf? Wu Hao glanced at the other party and said with a smile, "Let you go to the front to sentry, are you scared like this?" ”

"Brother Hao, Brother Hao, the devil is here!" Before the dog could wait for the air to go well, he hurriedly said, "Thirty people, all with guns behind them." ”

"Are you sure?" Wu Hao asked with a serious expression when he heard this.

"I'm sure, the little devil is really here!" Dogan replied urgently.

"In this way, you go and inform the third master, and let the third master call all the movable masters in the village, and I will carry them here first." Wu Hao thought for a while, and ordered in an orderly manner: "Let the big guys bring their things over." ”

"Good! Good! The dog replied and ran towards the village at a very fast speed.

"Fatty, little two, take out the guy's business and see what the little devil is going to do." Wu Hao watched the dog leave, and quickly ordered his companions, "Little devils have nothing to be afraid of, they are also human, and they are also afraid of pain, don't be cowardly later!" ”

"Don't worry, Brother Wu!" The fat man replied with a matter-of-fact sentence: "I've never been afraid of fighting wolves, and I'm not afraid of fighting devils." ”

"That's good!" Wu Hao replied, and hid behind a bunker made of sand bags, looking out at the road ahead.

Three minutes later, Takahashida arrived at the entrance of the village with the team of little devils, and Takahashida saw the bunker at the entrance of the village from a distance, and then concluded that there was security in the village.

"You guys wait here, I'll talk about it. Takahashida pointed to the bunker at the entrance of the village and said, "There must be security forces, so let's not clash with the other side and increase unnecessary casualties." (Sun)"

"Good! Good! The little devils all nodded, they weren't afraid of the security in the village, they were just too hungry to have the strength to move.

Seeing that his companions had agreed, Takahashida put the gun behind his back, raised his hands, and shouted in Chinese as he walked, "Hello folks, we have no malicious intentions, we just got lost and came to ask for some food." ”

"We don't have food here, let's go!" After Wu Hao heard the other party's shouting, he replied directly.

"I can't walk, I'm so hungry I can't walk." Takahashida shouted as he walked, "Don't shoot, let's talk." ”

"There's nothing to talk about, let's go!" Wu Hao held up the earthen gun and said with a serious expression, "If you leave, I'll shoot." ”

At this moment, Takahashida had already walked to a position about ten meters away from Wu Hao and the others, and entered the range of the earthen gun.

"Don't shoot, don't shoot!" Hearing this, Takahashida raised his hands and stood in place, "I'm lost, I'm so hungry that I can't walk, beg for food, we'll leave after eating, okay?" ”

"No, we don't have food." Wu Hao once again bluntly refused.

After Gao Hashida saw that Wu Hao was not very old and did not eat oil and salt, he directly threatened, "Little brother, there are thirty people on our side, all of them have spears, if you don't give us a bite of food to eat, we will starve to death, then before we starve to death, we will definitely grab food, are you really sure that you want to start a war for us for a few mouthfuls of food?" ”

Hearing this, Wu Hao glanced at the number of people behind Takahashida, with a hesitant face.

Takahashida saw that Wu Hao was a little loose, and continued, "Just give us a little food, and we'll leave immediately after eating, how about it?" ”

Just as Wu Hao was about to reply, dozens of people poured into the village, the average age of these people was about fifty years old, and they came over with scythes, shovels and other farm tools in their hands.

"Haozi, what are they going to do?"

The person who asked the question, called the third master, is a very prestigious old man in the village, the third master is fifty-six years old, full of white hair, the back is slightly rickety, if you look closely, you can see that the third master's left hand has no palm, it is said that when he was young, the third master's palm was blown off by lightning during the rebel army, and he is a person with a story.

"Third master, they said they were lost and wanted to beg for something to eat." Wu Hao turned his head and replied, "I didn't agree, let them go, and they won't go." ”

The third master nodded, squinted at Takahashida and the little devil behind Takahashida, and probably had a judgment in his heart.

"What if we don't give us food?" The third master looked at Takahashida and asked.

"I can be hungry, but the others can't bear it." Takahashida glanced at the people behind the third master, "You don't want any tragedy to happen to the last manpower in this village." ”

"We can burn another handful of old bones." The third master squinted at Takahashi Tian and said, "I take a step back, you also take a step back, how about it?" ”

"How do I get back?" Takahashida thought for a moment and asked.

"It's okay to ask for food, exchange guns and bullets." The third master looked at Takahashida and said, "Otherwise, I'm afraid that you are wolves and you won't be able to feed yourself." ”

"I swear in the name of our Imperial soldiers that we will never take revenge." Takahashida immediately swore an oath.

"What's the use of you sending this thing?" The third master didn't eat this set at all, and said directly, "Okay, just exchange the gun, if it doesn't work, get out!" ”

Takahashida thought for a moment and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go and discuss." ”

After speaking, Takahashida said hello to the third master, and quickly turned around to discuss with the other little devils.

After a heated discussion, Takahashida finally persuaded the others, took five rifles and walked over, looked at the third master and said, "Five guns, a hundred rounds of ammunition, how much food can be exchanged for?" ”

"How about giving you thirty men a week's rations and water?" The third master thought for a while and replied directly.

"Yes!" Takahashida nodded, threw the gun directly on the ground, and said, "Change it now." ”

"No problem." After the third master turned around and explained a few words to the people around him, he turned around and said to Takahashi, "Wait, the food will come in a while." ”

"Good!" Takahashida replied and waited patiently.

Thirty minutes later, several bags of steamed buns, pancakes, and ten kilograms of water were placed in front of Takahashida, and the two sides exchanged them, and nothing happened.

After the little devils got the food, they sat down and ate it directly, gobbling it up one by one, obviously hungry.

After eating and drinking, the little devils actually set up tents on the spot and prepared to spend the night outside the village.

The third master stared at the busy little devil, and a trace of ominous premonition appeared in his heart.

The story of the farmer and the snake, will it happen?
