When the villagers followed Liu Gen to the place where those devil puppet soldiers died, and saw those devil puppet soldiers who were killed by Liu Gen, the villagers didn't have much fear. In such troubled times, the villagers have already seen a lot of death, and many people still can't help but kick when they look at these dead devils and puppet soldiers.

When these devils and puppet soldiers were alive, the villagers had no courage to resist, they were not trained, and they had no weapons in their hands. There is simply no way to fight the devils. Now that these devils and puppet armies have been killed, the villagers don't feel relieved if they don't kick them.

Liu Gen watched all this and did not stop the villagers' behavior, he understood why the villagers did this.

"Folks, you should all remember how much food these devils and puppet soldiers have robbed, I hope you don't take more, only take your own share. I will be here to supervise you and I hope you will cooperate. Liu Gen looked at the villagers present with an extremely serious expression.

In order to prevent people from taking more food, Liu Gen could only explain to these villagers in advance that food is very important this year. Liu Gen didn't know what kind of thoughts these folks had, but as long as he was here, then he wouldn't let such a thing happen.

The villagers didn't have any opinions, they didn't have any other ideas, as long as they could get back their own rations, as for more food, they didn't have the luxury. These villagers are well aware of the importance of food, and they also understand that if they take too much food, it will inevitably lead to others not having enough rations.

Liu Gen looked at these very cooperative villagers, and felt a little emotion in his heart, the villagers are really good, and they are all very simple, at this time, they don't have too many other thoughts.

Twenty minutes later, the villagers all got their own food, and there was not much food in their hands, but they could still see obvious joy on their faces. For these villagers, the grain in their hands has made them very satisfied, and with this food, their life will be better in the future, at least not to the extent of eating tree bark.

"Folks, these devils and puppet army were killed by our Eighth Route Army troops, and the devils will inevitably come to search, you don't have to hide it, otherwise they are likely to vent their anger on you."

"When everyone goes back, I hope everyone will hide these rations and not be discovered by the devils again." Liu Gen said to the villagers.

Liu Genyou wanted these villagers to leave the village directly, but they left the village. Where can they go? What's more, Liu Gen also knows that even if he wants these villagers to leave the village, they will not be willing to leave, for these villagers, the village is their roots, the Chinese attach the most importance to the land and their hometown, unless there is really no way, otherwise the villagers will not leave at all.

"Little comrade, don't worry, when we go back, we will hide these rations."

"This time it was also due to the suddenness of the devil's arrival, we were not fully prepared, we will pay attention to this next, and such a thing will not happen easily." The old village chief stood up and said confidently. The devil was not familiar with their village, and the old village chief believed that as long as the villagers hid these rations well, it would be impossible for the devils to find out these rations.

"Old village chief, don't be careless, the devil has a gun in his hand, no matter how well you hide it, if they use the gun, you won't have anything to do."

"Old existence, if you can, I still hope that everyone can leave the village, either go into the mountains, or find our Eighth Route Army troops, and go to the depths of the anti-Japanese base area, where it is safer. To tell you the truth, your village is too close to the devil's stronghold, and the devil's threat to everyone is too great. Liu Gen said seriously.

The old village chief was silent, he looked at the villagers around him, and he could see that the villagers were also a little silent, he knew that what Liu Gen said was right, but he was a little reluctant to leave existence. It's not that the old village chief doesn't know the ferocity of the devil, but an old man like him, even if he dies, he will die in the village, and if he really leaves, then the old village chief doesn't know if it is possible to return to the village.

"Little comrade, I understand your worries, but I'm old and don't want to leave the village."

"When I go back, I will tell the young people in the village to let them leave the village, we old guys are okay to stay, and the young people will let them go if they can." Eventually, the old village chief said.

Liu Gen nodded, he believed that the old village chief understood the hatefulness of the devil puppet army, and it was a difficult thing to leave the village, but only by coming out of the village could he ensure his safety to the greatest extent. In the anti-Japanese base area, there are many old people like the old village chief who are unwilling to leave the village, and Liu Gen can understand the situation of the old village chief.

"That's good."

"Folks, I'll leave, after we go back, everyone will live well, I believe that one day we can drive the devil back to our hometown, and then the life of the villagers will be much better." Before leaving, Liu Gen did not forget to encourage the villagers to continue to persevere, he knew the final result of this war, and hoped that the villagers could hold on until that time.

"Little comrade, have a safe journey."

"Little comrade, we believe your words, and I believe that the Eighth Route Army will definitely be able to drive the devils back to their hometown."

“……”

Leaving the sight of the villagers, Liu Gen found out the loot he had hidden before, and walked quickly towards the place where the horse was hidden. Killing these devils and puppet soldiers did not waste too much time on Liu Gen, but it was dealt with after the war, which made Liu Gen spend a lot of time, but there was no way, these were all things he needed to do.

When he came to the place where the horse was hidden, Liu Gen put the trophy he was carrying on the horse's back, estimated the weight, and gave up the idea of continuing to ride the horse. Originally, the horse had a local product sent by the villagers over there, plus the loot that Liu Gen put up, and a hill was directly piled up on the horse's back. Liu Gen was very worried that if he rode it again, this horse would not last until the division headquarters.

Liu Gen led the horse away, he had two pistols hanging from his waist, both of which he was loaded with, and the speed of returning to the division headquarters would be much slower, and he was very worried about what enemies he would encounter on the road. Putting the two pistols on his waist can also give Liu Gen a little more security, and if he really encounters an enemy, then he can also launch a counterattack in the shortest possible time.

Leading the horse forward, it was much slower than Liu Gen's horse, but even so, Liu Gen's speed was still much faster than that of ordinary soldiers. During this period, it was not his own physical strength that affected Liu Gen's forward speed, but that there were too many things on the horse's body and he couldn't walk fast, which made Liu Gen need to take care of the horse's speed, resulting in a lot slower than Liu Gen's full speed.

In the evening, Liu Gen was already very close to the division headquarters, and he could successfully return to the division headquarters in another hour, but Liu Gen was a little helpless because the horse couldn't walk. Who would have thought that it was not Liu Gen who could not bear it first, but Ma'er, and Liu Gen was also very helpless about this. In order to be able to return to the division headquarters as soon as possible, Liu Gen could only take some of the trophies from the horses and carry them on his own to reduce the burden on the horses.

With Liu Gen's share, the horse was a lot easier, and his speed gradually became faster.

An hour later, Liu Gen successfully returned to the division headquarters, and the soldiers on patrol hurriedly greeted Liu Gen after seeing the trophies he was carrying. The warriors were a little puzzled, and they didn't understand why Liu Gen didn't put these trophies on the horses, but after the soldiers saw the state of the horses, they understood why Liu Gen did this.

The soldiers could clearly see that the horses were very tired, which made them realize that Liu Gen should choose to go back to the division headquarters without much rest on the road, looking at Liu Gen who was in high spirits, the soldiers looked at Liu Gen and became strange, why was Liu Gen not tired at all? Looking at the exhausted horses, at this moment, the warriors seemed to understand something.

"Captain Liu, this horse looks very tired, I don't know where you want to take it?" The soldiers saw Liu Gen pulling his horse and continuing to walk towards the division headquarters, and asked with some distress.

In the Eighth Route Army, horses are treasures, and there are not too many horses even in the division headquarters. For many warriors, they rarely have the opportunity to ride a horse, but this does not mean that the warriors do not care about the situation of the horse, this does not see that the horse led by Liu Gen is very tired, and the warriors can't help but speak, wanting the horse to rest as soon as possible.

It was the first time for these soldiers to see horses so tired after staying at the division headquarters for so long, even in some emergency.

"The souvenirs on this horse are the souvenirs that the villagers asked me to bring to the division and boss, and I need to send these souvenirs over." Liu Gen opened his mouth to explain.

The soldiers were slightly stunned, but they didn't expect that these things were going to be given to the division commander and the bosses, and they thought that these things were going to be pulled to the cooking class. Now it seems that these things are of great significance, and they need to be handed over to the division commander and the boss to deal with.

"Captain Liu, let's help you hold these things, let's let this horse rest early, I think it's tired." Said the captain of the patrol team.

Liu Gen hesitated, "Aren't you guys patrolling?" Don't you have to keep patrolling? ”

"Our patrol is over, and then there will be rotation, and if we really need to continue patrolling, we won't dare to do such a thing." The patrol leader explained. The soldiers of the division headquarters were very serious when patrolling. They are well aware of the amount of responsibility they have on their shoulders, and their patrols determine the safety of the division headquarters.

Every time they are on patrol, the soldiers are very conscious, many people will put a dried chili pepper in their pockets, whenever they are a little sleepy, the soldiers will take out the dried chili pepper and take a bite, and immediately the whole person can be refreshed. Many soldiers can kiss the obvious smell of chili pepper on their bodies after the patrol, and for some soldiers who can't eat spicy food, their lips will swell a lot after the patrol.

It was precisely because the fighters were serious enough that the division headquarters did not have any problems and did not encounter any great danger.

The division commander once praised the soldiers in charge of the defense of the division headquarters, saying that with them, he could sleep well every night, and there was no need to worry about any devil troops touching his side.

For the soldiers who are responsible for defending the division headquarters, the praise of the division commander is the best reward for them, and being able to be responsible for protecting the safety of the division headquarters is an honor in the eyes of the soldiers, an honor that is enough for them to give their lives.

"Okay, then trouble comrades." After knowing that these soldiers did not need to continue patrolling, Liu Gen said with a smile.

There was obvious joy on the faces of the warriors, and they quickly took the things off the horses, and the weight made the soldiers a little surprised, why did the villagers send so many souvenirs? When they saw that there were rifles and bullets among these things, the soldiers became more and more puzzled, and the souvenirs sent by the villagers were a little too special.

"Oh, by the way, I got these weapons and ammunition from killing a group of devils and puppet soldiers on the way, I don't know where I need to send them?" Seeing the 38 rifle that was taken down by the soldiers, Liu Gen reacted, and he almost forgot about the loot.

The soldiers looked at Liu Gen with some admiration, they knew the combat effectiveness of the devil, and even if the combat effectiveness of the puppet army was not strong, it could be seen from the number of these guns that there were many enemies. What Liu Gen said was very simple, but the soldiers clearly knew the danger of this kind of battle, you must know that Liu Gen was the only one by himself, he did not have any helpers, and he could easily kill so many enemies, which these soldiers could not do.

"Xiao Wang, you take two comrades to send these weapons and equipment to the quartermaster's office." The patrol leader spoke.

"Yes!"

Soon, the three comrades led by Xiao Wang carried these trophies captured by Liu Gen and walked towards the quartermaster's office, there are a lot of these things, it is difficult for a soldier to get them all, who let Liu Gen take all the things on the ghost puppet army?

"Let's go too, and send these souvenirs to the division commander as soon as possible, so that you can rest early." Liu Gen said with a smile.

Naturally, the fighters did not have any opinions, and with the daily training and patrol tasks, they were not easy every day, and they were somewhat tired. It's just that the soldiers are still a little excited to be able to send these souvenirs to the division commander and the boss, and the division commander can often see them, but the number of times they see the bosses is not much.

Many soldiers looked at Liu Gen with a little burning eyes, they knew that if it wasn't for Liu Gen, then they wouldn't have such an opportunity. At the same time, the soldiers also admired Liu Gen more and more, thinking that Liu Gen single-handedly killed a team of devil puppet army, they couldn't hide their worship of Liu Gen, if only they could be as strong as Liu Gen.

Under the leadership of Liu Gen, the group continued to walk towards the depths of the division headquarters, and along the way, attracted the attention of many soldiers.
