In Dawu Village, the quiet and peaceful scene of the past disappeared without staring at the ground. The militiamen with Jinzao 38-style rifles on their shoulders were scattered at various intersections in Dawu Village, and according to the evacuation plan that had been set up a long time ago, they directed the villagers who helped the old and the young to gather in the ancestral hall of the village. And the girls and sisters-in-law of the Women's Rescue Association also wore red armbands on their arms and shouted loudly into the yard from house to house. After making sure that there were no more people left in the courtyard, he used the white ash block in his hand to draw a circle on the door frame or the steps to enter the courtyard as a mark.

The children's regiment also went out early, looking around on the high ground outside Dawu Village with red tassel guns. Next to the news tree on every high ground, there is also a half-grown child, as long as he finds that a Japanese army appears in the field of vision, he can put down the news tree at the first time!

Carrying a smoothy jujube wood cane, Mrs. Jiang also stood in front of the ancestral hall early with the support of the housekeeper, and methodically issued an order to the owners of the houses gathered around him: "The second room is in charge, and then go through the scattered places where the grain is buried in the village!" Ask the children who have become militiamen, if there is enough time, then scatter and bury some food! Even if you lose a few places, it's not a big deal! ”

"The head of the fifth house, why are there so many people from your branch? Call the two young people who are fast on their legs and feet, and hurry up to help the people of the Women's Rescue Association to urge them to go! Let's just say that it is mine, at this time, if anyone sacrifices their lives and money and drags down the big guys, the Eighth Route Army can spare them, and my Jiang family's family law board can't spare them! ”

"Third brother, I remember that your family did some small business and saved a lot of linen? The wolf will not be able to take away the heavy things. It won't take long for them to rot after they were buried in the ground, so they simply took them out and asked the descendants of the village who became militiamen to send them to the Eighth Route Army to treat the wounded? If you are afraid that there will be a deficit that you can't afford in a small business, this account will go to the public account of the Jiang family ancestral hall! ”

Seeing that the principals of the Jiang family did not hesitate to take the order, the housekeeper who was waiting by Mrs. Jiang's side cautiously said to Mrs. Jiang: "Taigong, this time...... I'm afraid it's not the usual situation, right? ”

Squinting his eyes at the more and more people of the Jiang family gathered in front of the ancestral hall, the old lady Jiang did not have the slightest worried look on her face, but there was obviously a little more heaviness in her voice: "Tianliu has always been bold, but his mind is also meticulous. I am afraid that he can send someone back to the village to urgently interrogate him...... The mountain rain is coming, the wind is full of buildings, so be ready for everything! ”

Nodding slightly, the housekeeper raised his eyes to look at the tall eaves of Mrs. Jiang's house not far from the ancestral hall, and couldn't help but sigh and said, "This day of military disasters and robbers...... But when will it be a leader! If the Japanese soldiers really hit Dawu Village, they would set fire to it as if they were dealing with other villages, and our house would be ...... The hard work of several lifetimes! ”

With a slight wave of her hand, Mrs. Jiang responded in a low voice: "The things outside the body can't take care of so much at this moment!" Tell the villagers to move faster. The wolf is heavily rammed, buried or abandoned. The fine gold and silver were also hidden nearby. Except for food, clothing, and livestock, there is no need to ...... the things that are around."

Before he finished speaking, a series of surprised shouts were already heard from the crowd in the distance: "Tianliu is back!" ”

"And the mallet...... Brought a lot of guys who fought in the war! ”

"What's going on? Why have all the people from the martial arts team arrived in the village......"

With those shouts of surprise, the crowd that had gathered in the open space in front of the ancestral hall suddenly gave way to a passage. It was just a blink of an eye, and Mo Tianliu, who was sweating profusely, had already rushed to the old lady Jiang who was standing in front of the ancestral hall, and said to the old lady Jiang with a big gasp: "Taigong, I ...... it."

Raising his hand slightly, Mrs. Jiang whispered to Mo Tianliu: "Tianliu, now you are also a general!" Whenever there is a big event, there should be peace in the heart! The old and young people in the village are ready to leave the village for refuge, you ...... Don't be in a hurry! ”

Mo Tianliu, who opened his mouth towards Old Lady Jiang, hesitated for a moment, and then stood beside Old Lady Jiang in a good manner, until he was out of breath, and then whispered to Old Lady Jiang: "Prince, this time ......"

Turning his head and smiling at Mo Tianliu, Mrs. Jiang whispered to Mo Tianliu: "Since you are a general, when you are in battle, you should decide the situation with one word!" Tianliu, if you want to make arrangements, just let it go, don't have to worry a lot! ”

Nodding gratefully at Old Lady Jiang, Mo Tianliu took a deep breath and shouted to the silent crowd in front of the ancestral hall: "All the uncles and elders, aunts and aunts in Dawu Village, as well as my brothers and sisters who have been playing with me since I was a child, the news that the little devil is going to call over, the big guys have already known about it, and they are all ready to retreat towards the mountains!" But this time, the situation is different from before, and it is different from what we big guys can expect! ”

"After suffering losses and being beaten everywhere, the little devils are afraid that this time we will make our Eighth Route Army go crazy, and we have mobilized a lot of devils to surround our entire ground in southern Hebei! Right now, they are closing on all sides step by step, wanting to kill the encircled Eighth Route Army and the encircled villagers! The road to retreat into the mountains, avoid the limelight and come back is already impassable! ”

"Since we are surrounded and there is nowhere to hide, then we have no other way to go, so we can only go out and tear a hole in the devil's encirclement and jump outside the devil's encirclement, so that the big guy can have a way to live! Just before I returned to Dawu Village, Commander Li of the Southern Hebei Army Subdivision of the Eighth Route Army had already made combat arrangements, and the independent regiment of the Eighth Route Army Southern Hebei Military Subdivision, one counted as one, and all of them were ready to go out and fight the devils to the end! ”

"But there are too few soldiers in our Eighth Route Army! The ground in southern Hebei is so big, and there are so many villagers who have to break out of the encirclement to survive, and it will not be possible at all to rely on an independent regiment of the southern Hebei military subdivision! At present, the martial arts teams of all counties on the ground in southern Hebei have already taken the lead in handing over fire with the devils and protecting the villagers to retreat. Only our Qingle County has relied on the effective measures of the joint protection of 100 villages, and the villagers in each village have withdrawn relatively quickly, and they have not yet exchanged fire with the devils for the time being! ”

"I can't say a word or two about the battle plan arranged by Commander Li. To put it simply, that is, our independent regiment of the Southern Hebei Military Division will first fight with the devils on the ground in Qingle County, tear apart one or two encirclements of the devils, deceive most of the devils' troops, and then turn around and fight out from the other direction! Only in this way can we get out of the encirclement of devils as much as possible and have a way to live! ”

"I don't hide it from the big guys, this time I saw the devil, and the two most dangerous tasks were grabbed in my hands! First of all, you have to charge with the large army, and then you have to stay to intercept the devil's pursuers! In terms of these two tasks, which one is a desperate job! I went out with a gun, and I didn't know if I could come back with all my beards and tails! It's not good to make a fuss, and you can't find a place to collect the corpse! ”

"The big guys also know that our Qingle County Martial Arts Team has a total of those people and guns! Regardless of the time of the charge, after the break, stop the devil chasing the soldiers, our Qingle County Martial Arts Team will definitely not have enough people! So I came back today just to recruit people into our Qingle County martial arts team. I just want to ask in front of the big guys - in our Dawu Village, are there any men who are not afraid of death? Are there any men who dare to die? There are men who are like our brothers in the Qingle County Martial Arts Team, in order to protect the villagers, they rushed to die??? ”

In the roar of several cracked silks, the crowd gathered in front of the ancestral hall was silent for a moment, and suddenly there was a raging roar like a sea tide: "It's all with a handle in the crotch of the pants, let's die!" I'll go! ”

"Aside these 100 catties, eighteen years later, Lao Tzu is a good man again!"

"To give a gun or not? Just give me a gun, count me in! ”

Seeing Ding Zhuang in Dawu Village bumping into his eyes from the crowd one after another, Mo Tianliu nodded with satisfaction: "Okay!" The gentlemen in Dawu Village don't have a bad seed! According to the rules of joining the martial arts team in the past, the militia is given priority, the gun is given priority, and the kung fu can defeat the two opponents first, and they all go to the mallet to line up to receive the gun! ”

In the sound of Ying Nuo, who was standing next to Mo Tianliu, the old lady Jiang raised the jujube cane in his hand and said slowly: "Don't be busy first, listen to me!" ”

Although Mrs. Jiang's voice was not high, but after the housekeeper beside Mrs. Jiang raised his voice and shouted a few times, the originally noisy crowd immediately quieted down again......

Taking a slight breath, Old Lady Jiang looked around at the people in Dawu Village in front of her, and still said unhurriedly: "Since we are going to fight in battle, Ding Zhuang in Dawu Village is commendable for his righteousness and bravery, and others should naturally not be left behind!" He is the patriarch of the Zhongjiang clan in Dawu Village, and he is old today...... It's just a dictatorship! In Dawu Village, all the people in each house, except for the old and young women and children, all stayed in the village, and poured the strength of the whole clan to support the Eighth Route Army, the military engineering team, and the auxiliary workers! ”

His eyes widened in surprise, and Mo Tianliu hurriedly shouted to Mrs. Jiang publicly: "Taigong, this must not be done!" Our Eighth Route Army and the Martial Arts Brigade risked their lives to fight with the little devils, isn't that just to protect the villagers and have a way to live? Or hurry up and tell the villagers to gather and prepare to evacuate? ”

waved his hand towards Mo Tianliu, but the old lady Jiang raised her eyes to look at the tall cornices of her house not far away: "The old man is hanging down, and it is difficult to leave his homeland!" Rather than lying in a ditch or dragging others down while fleeing, it is better to ...... Defend the land and protect the home, a little thin! Heaven stays, the big war is coming, don't say more! You should concentrate on dealing with the battle, and the Jiang clan is duty-bound to deal with other matters such as the allocation of grain and grass and the rescue of the wounded! ”
