Gongzhufen, Zhangjia Village, and Nameless Village, these three villages are all along the road and arrive in Pingzhuang.

The plain topography around Xiaoniu Village has basically evolved into a mountainous area after passing the middle section of Zhangjia Village and Wuming Village.

Duan Peng and the monk led two platoons of men and horses, and the original goal was to point directly at the princess's tomb, but who knew that they would encounter a little devil in the middle of Zhangjia Village and Nameless Village.

Hundreds of little devils wandered around the mountains, and they seemed to be searching for someone.

The monk and Duan Peng could tell that this devil was the devil who had fought with his party on the trail east of the princess's tomb.

But how did they suddenly end up in this mountainous area?

What about them, commanders?

And what about the commissars?

The monk suddenly had an ominous premonition, he hid in a hidden place and looked at the little devils all over the mountains and fields, and said in a daze: "Duan Peng, do you think the devils should have defeated the third brother and them, that's why they came to this place, right?" ”

Duan Peng was silent for a moment, and resolutely said, "Impossible, the head of the regiment will definitely be fine." ”

"But what are these little devils searching for? It can't be that the third brother has fled into the mountains, and the devils are searching for them here, right? ”

The monk got up suddenly, "No, I have to save the third brother and the political commissar." ”

Duan Peng, who was quick-eyed, pressed the monk down, "Monk, calm down, the head of the regiment and the political commissar will definitely be saved, even if we risk our lives, we have to go and save them, but now the mountains are full of devils, let's rush out like this, what's the difference between that and sending them to death." ”

"What do you say?"

"I believe that the regiment commander and the political commissar must be fine, but after a long time, it will be difficult to say, monk, we can't hesitate any longer, now you listen to me, we will return to Pingzhuang, use the radio to transmit the news to the battalion commander, let him gather the whole regiment of men and horses, we will kill all these little devils, not only to save the regiment commander and political commissar, but also to avenge the sacrificed brothers."

The monk was shocked, nodded heavily, and shrank back, "Okay, I'll listen to you, then let's move quickly." ”

After making up their minds, the monk and Duan Peng temporarily withdrew from the Japanese army's field of vision with their men and horses, and were halfway to Pingzhuang.

Lao Hei, the leader of the intelligence group, used the radio to send a message to Shi Wencai, the commander of the first battalion in the distance......

……

……

In a daze, Han Feng felt that his head was unusually heavy, this heaviness was like the heaviness when he had just woken up from the last time he was admitted to the military district hospital, but he didn't expect that it would only take long for him to feel it again.

The line of sight slowly returned, and the mind gradually became clearer.

The surroundings were dim and dark, and as far as the eye could see, there were rocks on both sides, "Isn't it dawn yet?" Han Feng was puzzled, and then he realized that there was another person next to him.

"Lao Xu!"

The memories before the coma surfaced like a tide, Han Feng ran out of ammunition, and suffered multiple wounds, and was trapped on the back slope by the Japanese army's Kosaki brigade.

Han Feng was even ready to die generously, who knew that at the last moment, Xu Zilin actually arrived with a row of people.

Then Han Feng, who was slightly relaxed, completely fainted.

What happened after that? Even if he didn't experience it, Han Feng could guess it.

Xu Zilin only brought a platoon of men and horses, and the Japanese army still had a few hundred, it was obvious that Lao Xu should have withdrawn with himself, and the devil naturally bit and chased desperately.

And then...... Fleeing here, Han Feng looked farther away at this time, only to find that the place he was in turned out to be a cave.

The entrance to the cave is very small, only allowing one person to pass through, and it is very hidden, and there seems to be some dead grass at the entrance of the cave, perhaps after the two escaped into the cave, Xu Zilin deliberately disguised it.

There is basically no wind in the cave, on this cold winter morning, it is somewhat warmer here than in the open air, Han Feng is not only a little emotional, this old Xu is really good at picking places.

Such a hidden cave, but also warm, is a great hiding place.

Where is this?

As far as Han Feng remembers, only the middle section of Zhangjia Village and Nameless Village is a mountainous area, but the princess's tomb is still a long way from here!

The ghost knows how he got here, is it possible...... Han Feng looked at Xu Zilin, who was still asleep.

The thin body curled up to keep warm, Lao Xu's eyebrows were full of exhaustion, just looking at Han Feng and forgetting his original purpose, he suddenly was a little surprised: I hadn't carefully observed it before, this Lao Xu's eyebrows and eyes were really a little delicate.

Whew-

Xu Zilin, who was asleep, suddenly gasped violently, perhaps due to fright, suddenly opened his eyes, and then saw a big face, staring at him intently.

Ahem cough cough –

"Lao Xu, you're awake!"

Xu Zilin nodded, he looked at the surroundings, "Old Han, I helped you bandage your wounds before, how are you feeling now?" ”

"Wounds?" Han Feng hurriedly touched his back, abdomen, and legs, and the pain there was really much less, "Don't worry, it's okay!" ”

After a moment of silence...... "What about the other brothers who came with you?" ”

There was a long silence again.

"As long as you're okay."

Han Feng looked at the only bright hole, "Tiesheng, wood, Dabao...... All the sacrificed soldiers of my new third regiment, I will definitely avenge this revenge. ”

"If you want revenge, add me."

"Of course, the head of the regiment is indispensable to the political commissar, how can Lao Han be without Lao Xu!"

After the two finished speaking, they looked at the entrance of the cave faintly, and they were originally familiar with each other, but when they were alone at this moment, they suddenly became a little strange and restrained.

In the end, it was the cry of Han Feng's belly that broke the silence.

"Ahem——, it's no wonder I'm hungry."

Xu Zilin said: "There are devils everywhere outside who want to capture you alive, if you are not afraid of being caught, then go out and find something to eat!" ”

Han Feng smiled bitterly: "I'd better bear with it, besides, it's cold and snowy, even if you go out, you probably won't be able to find food." ”

The two of them gossiped without a word, and Han Feng only noticed at this time that Xu Zilin was wearing a thin coat, and he put his coat on himself.

The still cold temperature made Xu Zilin can't help but pinch his arms to keep warm.

Han Feng, who reacted, hurriedly took off his coat from his body and put it on Xu Zilin.

"What are you doing here? You are a wounded person, and you need to keep warm. ”

"But I'm a man." Han Feng chuckled, and still couldn't help but put on his clothes for Xu Zilin, who was stunned.

Half an hour!

...... "you...... How do you say that...... I...... Also men! ”

Han Feng smiled strangely: "Old Xu, at this moment, the two of us are trapped in this cave together, and no one knows if the devil will find us in the next moment."

Now we should let go of each other's political positions, let go of each other's identities, and let go of each other's concerns, just talk about our hearts, and wait out of this cave, if we are still alive, I will forget all the things I said today. ”

"You...... Old Han, what do you want to say? ”

"You're a man?" Han Feng smiled: "Although you are well disguised, whether it is your rough voice, or your smoking actions, or even your daily behavior and habits, it can be seen that you should have disguised yourself as a man for a long time."

But after all, there are still physiological differences.

I haven't seen a man without an Adam's apple, and we've been together for a long time, don't you have a beard? Another point, the old head once said that most of the political commissars are white-faced, but your face is too white, not only white, but also ...... legs."

Ahem cough cough –

Looking at Xu Zilin's almost cannibalistic gaze, Han Feng coughed violently.

After a long silence...... "So you already knew?" ”

"You are not a rabbit, it is difficult to distinguish between male and female, just deceive a tendon like Duan Peng and a monk, we have been together for a long time, and the paper can't contain the fire."

"When did you find out?"

"I started to be suspicious when I met for the first time, and I was even more suspicious when I helped you massage your thighs because of the pain of training, you said that you are a political commissar, in order to integrate into the collective, shouldn't you eat and sleep with the soldiers? But you didn't, I asked for a guard or a woman, and when I found Er Ya walking out of your room in a daze that day, I was finally sure of your previous performance.

Don't say it, I was quite surprised, I haven't been so surprised in all these years of fighting.

The superiors lined up a political commissar for us, and it was actually a comrade dressed as a man, which was really interesting. ”

Xu Zilin's thick and black personality is useless at the moment, because he was seen through the roots, his face was a little red, fortunately, the cave was dim, and Han Feng couldn't see it clearly, otherwise he would have screamed, this crimson and beautiful face, if he kept long hair, went to the military uniform and hat, and changed into women's clothes, shouldn't it really be Mulan's return to her hometown!

Xu Zilin lowered his head and said, "Then why didn't you pierce me from the beginning?" ”

Han Feng said: "What are you doing when you are exposed?" Whether the political commissar is a woman or a man, and it does not affect your work, besides, along the way, it is estimated that there are many people who know your details, the boss, the chief of staff, and the political commissar, they should all know it! ”

"Yes!" Xu Zilin did not deny it.

"That's right, even the boss and political commissar are hiding it for you with one eye closed, why should I expose you?

It's just that now that we're trapped in a cave, I can't help but be curious, so I want to ask, why? ”

Xu Zilin's flushed face slowly faded, she suddenly chuckled, wrapped in the coat on her body, and there seemed to be the smell of Han Feng on it.

"What do you know, although our troops treat everyone equally, male comrades and female comrades are the same anti-Japanese war fighters, but we women themselves are still not feared, you always feel that we are inferior to you, and always hand over some logistics and medical work to us.

Why can't we lead our troops to fight and go to the battlefield to kill devils?

And also...... You don't know what I've been through, before I was 12 years old, I was a wandering little beggar.

I grew up in a riverside village, and I didn't know where my parents had gone, or who raised me until I was six or seven years old.

From that time on, I began to beg for food, first in the village, and the villagers really didn't have anything to eat for me, so I went to some towns to beg for food, but do you think I'm the only one who asks for food? There are a lot of little people called Hanako in that area, sometimes I fight with them for a bite of leftovers that are about to go rancid, of course I can't show weakness, let alone let them know that I'm a girl, I pretend to be strong and grab those leftovers, many boys are pressed to the ground by me and beaten, I know that because of that bite of food I survived, those boys may starve to death. ”

After the conversation box was opened, Xu Zilin seemed to fall into his own memories, and he began to confide in Han Feng continuously, but Han Feng looked at her with encouraging and sympathetic eyes in silence, signaling her to continue.

Of course, it is better to vomit as fast as a fish in the throat, and the depression in my heart for so many years, speaking out is much better for Xu Zilin.

Xu Zilin's voice is no longer old and rough, perhaps because she is used to using a man's voice, when she suddenly returned to her original timbre, she was still a little unaccustomed to it for a while.

Han Feng began to enjoy it, this is an extremely beautiful and pleasant sound, like the gurgling water in the quiet mountain forest, like the crisp symphony of jade rings, people say "beautiful colors can be eaten", but they don't know that "beautiful music can also be eaten".

"I fought with other boys, I started to think of myself as a boy, I didn't just want to eat, I stole it, I robbed, cheated, and at that time, in order to survive, not to go hungry, I did whatever I wanted."

"But I still know in my heart that I am a girl, at least the name is still a girl, Xu Zilin, "Lin" heard that it is my mother's name, but what is the name of my mother, I still don't know, "Zi", an old gentleman told me that there is a beautiful meaning that there is so much food that you can't eat.

But I don't care about this, I pseudonym myself Xu Zilin.

Later, I found my father, who I had met when I was a primary school teacher in Hebian Village, but I don't know exactly how they met.

He was very kind to me, although from the bottom of my heart I still didn't want to forgive him.

Then he asked me to go to school, let me go to a girls' school, I didn't want to, I quarreled with him and made trouble with him, and he followed me, and I continued to be my boy, studying with those male students.

Later, after graduating from university, I started working as a political commissar.

As for my identity, my father is very old in the team, and his comrades, subordinates, and superiors are all sympathetic to his hardships, and just like you said, they simply turn a blind eye to me.

I continued to disguise myself as a man and mingle in the army.

It's just that...... I didn't think that my disguise was a joke in your eyes? It's so easy for you to find out. ”

Han Feng secretly said in his heart, a woman must be a woman, if she is younger, it is still a little difficult to find out if she pretends to be a man, but as she grows older and her physical characteristics become prominent, it will be difficult to continue to disguise.

After so many years, even Han Feng can't imagine how Xu Zilin did it.

"Old Han, then do you decide to call me Xu Zilin or Xu Zilin now?"

"Is there a difference? There doesn't seem to be any difference in the pronunciation of the name. Han Feng spread his hands and said with a smile: "I only know that my political commissar is Lao Xu." ”

"Thank you!" Xu Zilin let out a sigh, "Old Han, do you know? For the first time in all these years, I'm revealing these secrets to anyone other than me. ”

"It's an honor, don't worry, my mouth is no less than those secret departments."

Poof—

Xu Zilin couldn't help laughing, he was actually very wary of people in his heart, but even she couldn't tell it, why did these secrets hidden in the depths of his heart be revealed to Han Feng and Pan so easily?

Perhaps, because he is Lao Han!
