This is not Liu Cheng's inner obsession, but the basic respect for a heroic martyr who sacrificed his life in that war and left a psychological shadow on the extremely arrogant Japanese!

What's more, without Zhang Guanyi, there would be no current independent battalion.

Liu Cheng does have ideas and abilities, and he has valuable experience in experiencing this war.

However, in the environment at that time, the pros and cons were half and half.

If it weren't for Zhang Guanyi, he wanted to develop the team to its current size and have such independent decision-making power, the only possibility was to pull up a team alone.

And in that case, the future of those fighters will be deprived of basic security.

If he had suffered misfortune in one of the battles, the fighters would have faced a brutal purge after being reorganized or co-opted.

Just like now, he brought the special operations company to Ningcheng, where the situation was extremely complicated, and if he unfortunately died, Song Wen and Xu Zhi would not be able to take his place at all and make accurate judgments and decisions.

At present, they only found Qi Yuan's squadron and Zhao Yuzhi's regiment, and they didn't know if there were other enemies around.

If there is, the special operations may even be in a desperate situation anytime and anywhere.

The reason why Liu Cheng told Tang Zhenhu that there was a task given to him after dark was because he had no intention of staying here after dark.

In the current situation, the night is a symbol of danger.

The routine of day and night is undoubtedly the most suitable activity mode to adopt in this situation.

After more than half an hour, Liu Cheng got up from the ground and began to walk around the team.

He thought of different response plans according to the several possibilities he envisioned, but some details had to wait for things to really happen before he could make a decision based on the actual situation.

For a commander, improvisation, accurate judgment and decision-making are the most important abilities to have.

The moment Li Dezhong saw Liu Cheng, a trace of nervousness immediately flashed on his face.

He had already made a dozen trips to a place where no one was in the place under the pretext of diarrhea, and in order not to arouse suspicion, he chewed a handful of raw soybeans and drank two jugs of cold water after breakfast.

So, it's true that he has diarrhea.

But the tossing legs were thin, and he didn't see the person he wanted to see.

Half an hour has passed since the agreed time, and Li Dezhong has become more and more anxious and scared.

Tang Zhenhu had been following him every step of the year since he had raided Qi Yuan's squadron last night, and he didn't leave until an hour ago, and Li Dezhong realized that Liu Cheng had begun to suspect him.

He wanted to get out of here quickly, but he was worried that the people who connected with him would not find him when they came.

Money is a good thing, but taking other people's money and not doing anything is not just to return the money.

Is it so easy for Japanese people to take money?

Li Dezhong is greedy for money, but he is also really afraid of death.

If he had known that he would have to face this situation, he would not have dared to take the money if he was killed.

However, Liu Cheng didn't seem to notice him, just walked around the neighborhood, said a few words to several soldiers of the Jin Sui army and left.

Li Dezhong breathed a long sigh of relief, boiled the pot again with a gurgling stomach, and quickly got up and ran deep into the woods with his butt covered.

Not far away, Xu Zhi's eyes had been staring at Li Dezhong without a trace, and when he saw him get up and leave, Xu Zhi immediately followed.

Li Dezhong squatted down behind a big tree, and with the sound of exhaust unobstructed, his somewhat distorted face gradually relaxed.

Just as he picked up the dead leaves on the ground and was about to clean them up briefly, a voice suddenly sounded above his head:

"Idiot! What the hell happened last night?! ”

The sudden sound frightened Li Dezhong's hands trembled, and the leaves fell to the ground.

He didn't bother to wipe the sticky object off his fingers, got up, put on his pants, and looked up at the tree.

A man dressed as an ordinary man was squatting on an arm-thick branch, looking at him with anger on his face.

Li Dezhong looked at the man on the tree with a bitter face, and whispered while wearing his belt:

"You're here! I really can't control what happened last night; Besides, at that time, you just asked me to follow the one surnamed Liu, leaving marks along the way, and you didn't say that I should do anything else! ”

As soon as his words fell, the man jumped down from the tree, landed directly in front of Li Dezhong, grabbed him by the collar, quickly dragged him to the back of a big stone next to him and pressed him down, and with a flip of his palm, a dagger was against Li Dezhong's neck, and he said in a cold voice

"Now, I want you to kill that person surnamed Liu!"

Li Dezhong trembled all over, and waved his hand again and again with a crying voice:

"No, no, no, I beg you, don't let me die, okay? I can't kill him! ”

The man smiled coldly, revealing a row of white teeth:

"Then I'll kill you right now!"

Li Dezhong's face twitched like a walnut, and he pleaded repeatedly:

"Don't, don't, don't, there's something to say, there's something to say! I'll kill my company commander according to your request, so you can leave me a way to live!" ”

The man glanced around vigilantly, the dagger in his hand was slightly forced, and the sharp blade cut through Li Dezhong's skin:

"You've already taken the money, what? Want to regret it now? ”

Li Dezhong looked at the man with a desperate face, and his voice trembled:

"At the time, I didn't say that it was money to buy my life! I'll give you back the money, please, let me go back! ”

The smile on the man's face gradually became hideous:

"Go back? You killed two company commanders, brought two companies of soldiers into a desperate situation, and suffered heavy casualties, even if I let you go back, will you still have a way to live? ”

Li Dezhong was stunned, looking at the man blankly, his eyes glazed and his expression desperate.

He didn't find out when he killed the two company commanders, but listening to the meaning of the man's words, the above already knew about it.

At this time, the only thought in his heart was regret.

But it didn't help.

After a while, Li Dezhong slowly raised his head, looked at the man and asked word by word:

"If I promise you to kill that guy surnamed Liu, can you guarantee that my family will live?"

The man was just about to speak, when his face suddenly changed, and he lowered his head sharply.

"Horn!"

A crisp gunshot rang from the right, and the bullet flew past the man's scalp and burrowed into the dirt.

The man kicked Li Dezhong in the stomach and kicked him out of the stone.

"Horn!"

Another gunshot rang out, and a bullet hit Li Dezhong's right leg, causing him to scream in pain and almost faint.

Everyone heard the gunshots and immediately gathered in the direction of the gunshots.

The man cursed in a low voice:

"Yaga!"

casually took out a grenade from his arms and threw it to Li Dezhong's side, and shouted in a low voice:

"When someone comes in a moment, you detonate a grenade; Otherwise, not one of your family will die! ”
