“…… Dad, you have been wronged alone all these years, and I ...... son I know what you're struggling with. Li Ruzhu looked at his father's tearful appearance, his heart softened, he finally called his father, and then got up and poured a glass of water for his father.

"Second brother, the eldest brother is a rough man. I have said to you in the past. Don't blame Big Brother. After the eldest brother drives those hateful Japanese people back to the Japanese country, you don't have to wronged yourself like this. Dahu said apologetically.

"You two don't have to comfort me, to be honest, even I sometimes feel ashamed of the role I play, and I don't blame you." Erhu wiped a handful of tears and said.

"Dad, don't be discouraged. Bear with me a few more days. We are not far from the day when we will defeat the Japanese people. The Ming Dynasty will soon send troops to Korea. At that time, the Japanese will be driven back to the Japanese country. We will never be angry with them again. ”

"Okay, good, dad believes in you." Erhu had a smile on his face.

"Dad, you have to think about the pass. My friends want to get to the south as soon as possible, and they have important things to do. ”

"It's not that Daddy won't help you. Dad really can't do anything about this. You also know that Dad is a little chief, that is, running errands and passing on messages to the Japanese people. It's almost impossible to get Dad to beg them for a few passes. ”

"Second brother, think about it again and see if there is any other way."

"This ...... Hey, I remember. Is there a way I don't know if it works? ”

"Second brother, tell me quickly, what is the solution?" The big tiger's eyes widened and he looked at the second tiger expectantly.

"A few days ago, the Japanese people went to the town to urge grain, no, it was not easy to get them nearly 200 stone of rice. The Japanese asked them to send them to their barracks five kilometers south of the outpost tomorrow. I have already arranged for more than a dozen ox carts to pull grain. Do you think tomorrow will you be able to get your friends to join you, pretending to be a farmer driving a car? Erhu said to Li Ruzhu.

"Okay, I think that's a good idea." Before Li Ruzhu could speak, Dahu preemptively said.

"How many people are driving an ox cart?" Li Ruzhu asked.

"I'm arranging for two people. Because it was a hill up the hill after the checkpoint, I was afraid that the cattle would not be able to bear it, so I arranged for one person to drive the car and the other person to help behind. When you get up the slope, you have to be pushed by someone behind you to go up. Then you can have one car and one car, just hitchhike in the back of the car. ”

"What if the Japanese people check the pass?" Big Tiger asked.

"In the past, the Japanese people generally did not check the farmers who delivered grain."

"Alright, Dad, I think this plan works. Let's go back and get ready. The rest here is up to you. When and where will we meet tomorrow? Li Ruzhu immediately decided to adopt her father's strategy.

"Tomorrow you and your friends will be at home before dawn, lest there be a lot of gossip after dawn. Then I'll find the right time to arrange for you to follow the car. Do you think it's okay? ”

"Alright, Dad, that's it. Uncle and I went back to report to the third grandmother. We'll be here early tomorrow morning. After Li Ruzhu finished speaking, she stood up.

"Pearl, pay more attention to safety when you are outside. Your mother and I hope you can be safe. Erhu looked at his son who came and went with some reluctance, and two lines of old tears couldn't help but flow down the corners of his eyes.

"Dad, take care of your old man."

"Second brother, if you can't stay in the town in the future, go up the mountain to find us. My third aunt and I will welcome you. ”

After Li Ruzhu and Dahu finished speaking, they hurriedly walked out of the door.

"Oh...... Dad, how is the bamboo girl now? Li Ruzhu had already walked to the door, and suddenly turned around and asked.

"Alas! This child's life is miserable! Since you left the town to go to Beijing to participate in the scientific expedition, she has been looking forward to you coming back every day to marry her. But you never returned, and there was no news. When you first left, she had to go to the old locust tree north of the town almost every day. I hope that one day your figure will suddenly appear on the main road north of the town.

Later, seeing that there was no hope for you, her family forced her to marry as soon as possible. After all, in this small town, if the girl is old and does not get married, she will be discussed by the neighbors. It just so happened that the eldest son of a family in the neighboring village northwest of the town took a fancy to Zhuqing. This family is also well-off.

Zhuqing's father forcibly set a date for her. Which Cheng thought, the night before getting married, Zhu Qing secretly ran to me, handed me a purse embroidered by herself, and asked me to hand over the purse to you once you come back, and let me tell you that she will always be waiting for you. You see, if you don't mention Zhuqing, I'll forget about the purse. Erhu said, walked to the north cabinet, opened the drawer, and took out a paper bag from inside. When opened, a pink purse appeared.

"Here, this is what Zhuqing embroidered for you. Daddy has always treasured it for you. Erhu handed the purse to his son.

"And then?" Li Ruzhu took the purse. The purse is carefully embroidered with silk thread to get two mandarin ducks leaning on each other.

"Alas! Dad thought she was just talking. Which Cheng thought that on the day of marriage, Zhu Qing actually escaped from the greeting team halfway. So far, there has been no news. Whether it is dead or alive, no one knows. Erhu sighed and said.

"Dad, you can rest. I'm leaving. Li Ruzhu looked down at the purse in her hand for a while, and then walked out of the door with Dahu.

The next day, before dawn, Luo Shiyin and the other six people had breakfast and set off to go down the mountain.

"Senior, we can meet General Yi Sunsin when we go to the south this time, I wonder if your old man has anything to say that we need to bring to him?" Before leaving, Luo Shiyin asked Yi Sunsin's mother.

"There's nothing to say, just tell me, my lord, I'm all right. Let him rest assured. Just kill the thieves wholeheartedly. Yi Sunsin's mother said to Luo Shiyin.

"Well, sir, thank you for your hospitality. Don't send it again. Please come back! Luo Shiyin said.

"Please come back, senpai!" Ye Ruliu, Shi Lang and others also waved goodbye.

"Okay, let the big tiger send you down the mountain. Have a nice trip! Yi Sunsin's mother waved.

Under the guidance of the big tiger, it didn't take long for Luo Shiyin and his party of six people to come to the foot of Feilai Peak. After a brief goodbye, the big tiger returned to the peak, and Luo Shiyin and his party of six rushed to Li Ruzhu's home in Asan Town.

By the end of the hour, Erhu had commanded nearly twenty farmers hired from the nearby countryside to load rice onto a dozen ox carts.

Luo Shiyin and the other six people had already put on six sets of peasant costumes borrowed by Erhu at Erhu's house, pretended to be farmers, and were arranged to follow the six ox carts in the middle and front.

"Everyone must keep a good distance on the road, not too close, not too far away. A distance of about two or three meters from each other is sufficient to avoid falling behind or causing crowding. Do you understand? Erhu shouted at the top of his voice.

"Understood."

"Got it."

"Okay."

The farmers who were driving the car did not seem to have woken up from the slumber of the previous night, and answered listlessly.

"Well, the leader in front of him holds down the steps. Let's go! The second tiger waved vigorously in the direction of the south of the town.

A dozen ox carts were connected in front of each other and walked south along the street. The "squeak" sound of the car attracts a group of naughty children. They kept frolicking behind the ox carts. It wasn't until the convoy left town that they reluctantly stopped.

After the convoy slowly walked past the old watermill in the south of the town, it was already possible to see the sentry post of the Japanese people a kilometer away.

The checkpoint was set up on a stone bridge of nearly 10 meters, and the north and south ends of the bridge were guarded by Japanese soldiers. Passing personnel and vehicles are inspected.

"It's not good, the Japanese seem to have strengthened their vigilance today. There were more people at the checkpoints than in the past. Looking at the direction of the checkpoint, Erhu whispered to Li Ruzhu beside him.

"Dad, don't be nervous. It's up to us. You just have to do your own thing. Li Ruzhu comforted her father. He was really worried that his father would be overly nervous and show his flaws.

Luo Shiyin glanced back at the two of them, his eyes full of calmness and trust. Erhu and Li Ruzhu immediately settled down a lot.

"Stop, what are you doing? Stop by and get checked! "As soon as the first ox cart approached the checkpoint, it was stopped by several Japanese soldiers armed with spears.

"Sir, we have been ordered to deliver military rations to you. It was Commander Takyugawa who personally gave me an order to raise all the military rations within three days, and to send them to the military camp in Nanshan by noon today. Erhu hurriedly ran forward and said to the Japanese soldiers.

"Who are you?" The Japanese soldier who had just shouted continued to ask.

"I'm the chief of Asan Town, and my name is Erhu. Chief Takyugawa and I know each other well. Erhu smiled all over his face.

"Wait a minute, we're going to do an inspection." After the soldier finished speaking, he waved his hand, and several soldiers beside him immediately followed him and began to inspect each ox cart.

When he inspected the fifth ox cart that Shi Tianji was following, and saw Shi Tianji's powerful body and full beard, the Japanese soldier couldn't help but look around Shi Tianji a few more times.

Shi Tianji pretended to be sincerely frightened, and kept nodding at the other party.

"What village is he from? What is your name? The Japanese soldier asked Erhu.

"Sir, he is from the barbarian village in the east, and his name is Ermanzi. He...... It's a mute. After answering the question of the Japanese soldiers, Erhu turned around and kicked Shi Tianji's ass viciously, scolding and glancing at Shi Tianji: "You are dumb, the chief asks you, and I don't know how to be polite to the chief." Look if I don't clean you up when I go back! ”

"Ahh......h

"Okay, okay, let's get over it!" The Japanese soldiers avoided Shi Tianji and looked gloomy.

"Thank you, sir, for letting you go!" Erhu hurriedly thanked him.

More than a dozen ox carts walked up the stone bridge behind the checkpoint. Erhu's hanging heart finally relaxed a little.

But just when the ox cart that Ye Ruliu was following was about to reach the south side of the bridge, something unexpected happened. A swift northeast wind suddenly blew, scraping the hat off Ye Ruliu's head. At this time, Ye Ruliu was pushing the tail of the ox cart with both hands, pretending to push the cart, so he didn't have time to react at all. In an instant, Ye Ruliu's hair poured down like a waterfall, fluttering in the wind.

A Japanese soldier on the south side of the bridge found out about the situation, and immediately rushed over, held Ye Ruliu with a gun, and shouted: "Stop, what are you doing?" ”

Ye Ruliu couldn't understand the words of the Japanese people, so she had to pretend to be afraid and stood in place.

"Ouch, the chief is angry. She is a village woman in our town. No, I originally said yesterday that I would let her father come to deliver food, but his father suddenly had a high fever and vomited last night. There are only two of them in her house, father and daughter. I had no choice but to ask her to disguise herself as a man to bring food to us in place of his father. I didn't expect to surprise you. The second tiger hurried over to the round.

Luo Shiyin, Shi Lang and the others stood beside their respective ox carts, closely watching the progress of the situation, and were ready to fight at any time.

The Japanese soldier listened to Erhu's words, and looked at Ye Ruliu with a suspicious face. Ye Ruliu pretended to be timid, twisted her body to the side, and didn't dare to look directly.

"Let's go!" The Japanese soldiers didn't see any flaws, and waved at the convoy behind.

"Hurry, hurry. Don't delay the food of the Japanese army. Erhu also shouted at the last few ox carts on the bridge.

Luo Shiyin, Shi Lang and others secretly breathed a sigh of relief and walked forward with the convoy.

"Wait." Just when everyone thought that they could pass the checkpoint safely, a person who walked out of the Japanese army post on the south side of the bridge shouted to stop the moving convoy.
