Chapter 4: Brothers (Yagai)

Watch the soft-shed cars roll up snow particles and soot and go away. Zhao Tianlong's face faintly revealed a little gloomy. He wasn't among the people who were asked to go to the meeting temporarily. He was once a lone traveler who was famous on the grassland. Now it can't even compare to Zhou Black Carbon. Although from the moment he decided to quit the rivers and lakes. It's only been less than half a year now.

"Let's find time to talk to Siqin." Zhang Songling could feel the loss in Zhao Tianlong's heart. Step forward. deliberately find another subject to his God." Tomorrow morning at the latest. We're going to have to go back. You don't go and say goodbye to her. She's going to be angry."

"She won't." Zhao Tianlong shook his head. Pretend to be nonchalant with an expression. However it didn't take a few minutes. He made an excuse to change the horseshoe for the yellow horse. Turned around and walked out of the yard. And it was changed until it was completely dark. I walked back to the dormitory with a happy face.

"I've eaten the reassuring pill." Zhang Songling saw the appearance of his good friend. I knew that his heart had been completely dissolved. Step forward. Laughing and teasing.

"Hey, hey. Hey, hey." Zhao Tianlong blushed and nodded. Then quickly shift the subject." What about them. Are you back? What did General Fu Zuoyi say over there?"

"I've been back a long time ago. If it weren't for waiting for you. We're already on our way back tonight." Zhou Hei Carbon also rushed in from outside the door. twitched his nose and sniffed left and right on Zhao Tianlong's body." Uh-huh. Uh-huh. What does it smell like? It's weird. I've never heard of it."

"Get out." Zhao Tianlong's face became more and more ruddy. It's as if a drop of blood is about to seep out from under the dark skin." If you want to go, you can go as well. Which needs you to wait.."

"That's not going to work. If I lose you; In the future, if someone comes to the door to look for a husband. What are we going to pay for?" finally gained the upper hand in the mouth frame with Zhao Tianlong. Zhou Hei Carbon is not willing to let go easily. Hold one of the other person's arms. Keep sniffing like a wild dog seeking food." Fatso. Come and smell it. It tastes weird."

"You ......." Zhao Tianlong didn't have the courage to entangle with him. Desperately pulling his arm back." Don't talk nonsense. What else can I smell like... Which one is like you. These days except hunting. The rest of the time I'm tired of being in the women's pile."

"Hah. I'm right. It's the smell of a woman." Zhou Hei Carbon immediately jumped up. Follow the flaws in Zhao Tianlong's words and dig deeper." No wonder I find it so weird. Say. Where are you going?"

"Shut up. You say it again. Don't blame me for beating you." Zhao Tianlong is completely empty now. Threatening viciously with a fist.

Zhou Hei Carbon hid behind Zhang Songling with his head in his arms. Hide on one side. While shouting for help: "Help. Help me! Zhao Tianlong is going to kill people. Zhao Tianlong is going to kill people."

"Alright. Come on. Alright." Zhang Songling stretched out his arm to stop Zhao Tianlong, who was already on the verge of rampage. Then he backhanded out the triumphant Zhou Hei Carbon from behind." Stop it. I'll have to hurry tomorrow morning. You didn't eat. If you don't eat it. I'll bake two steamed buns on the stove for you."

"I've eaten it." Zhao Tianlong lowered his head. Don't dare to look at Zhang Songlin's eyes." You've all eaten it, right? There's something I'll help you with over there. So. So I came back a little bit late."

"We're all hungry. Captain Lu didn't let everyone eat. Said I must wait for you to come back first." Zhou Hei Carbon hid behind Zhang Songling. grimaced at Zhao Tianlong.

"Don't listen to him. We've all eaten." Zhang Songling interrupted with a smile. Dry food is also ready. Including your share."

"Oh." Zhao Tianlong nodded gratefully. That said. General Fu Zuoyi agreed to our previous plan."

"I don't quite agree with that. Let Kuroko tell you. He had a meeting with Lao Lu. It's first-hand information." Zhang Songling thought about it. The work of introducing the content of the meeting was transferred to Zhou Heicarbon.

Zhou Hei Carbon immediately became proud. Raise your head. Cough in a low voice." Uh-huh. What ....... this?"

"Then I'll ask Lao Lu later." Zhao Tianlong didn't want to give him a chance to put on a score. He pulled his legs and went out of the house. Zhou Black Carbon See. Get up and block the door." Come on. Don't bother Lao Lu. He's old. I guess I'm already asleep by now. Let's be brief. General Fu Zuoyi felt that the little black fat man had done it before. Very creative. It just so happened that he was about to launch a campaign in response to the Southern Theater. The main target of this operation was set as Baotou. Tomorrow morning. Jin Suijun will set off with us. Let's give the little devil some color first."

"Oh..."Zhao Tianlong blinked his eyes. I don't understand whether it was Zhang Songling's proposal that influenced General Fu Zuoyi's decision. Or Jin Suijun was already ready to teach the little devil a lesson. So Shunshui Tuizhou accepted Zhang Songling's proposal. But no matter what. Asking Fu Zuoyi to send troops to muddy the water on the grassland has achieved this purpose. When the campaign is launched. Independent battalion of Zhou Black Carbon. It will be smooth from the object that is bound to be cut off from the heart of the little devil. Turned into an insignificant secondary target. The hope of getting out of the siege safely has grown. It is even possible without breaking the muscles and bones. Get rid of the joint pursuit of devils and puppet armies.

"Other than that. General Fu Zuoyi will also send a division of troops. To deter Li Shouxin. And then from the 211th Brigade . A cavalry regiment was specially drawn out. Eastward movement. Put pressure on the little devils in the Chahar area." Zhou Black Carbon is clearly in a state of euphoria. His arms kept dancing up and down as he spoke." If the little devils who attacked the Black Stone Village refused to see it, they would accept it. The cavalry regiment will be pressed straight up. Together with Lao Tzu's independent battalion, we should cooperate with each other inside and outside. Wiped out these bastards once and for all."

"Hmm." Zhao Tianlong dodged back slightly. lest Zhou Hei Carbon inadvertently spit on his face." Can Lao Jiu keep it for so long? I mean. Hold out until the cavalry regiment arrives at the place. That's more than 700 miles. Even if the cavalry regiment does not skimp on war horses, marching day and night. It's going to take three or four days."

"The walls of the Black Stone Village are all stone." Zhou Hei Carbon thought about it. The voice turned slightly lower." If the little devil doesn't have many cannons . It is estimated that the city will not be able to be broken for a while. Just like that. Lao Jiu's casualties are estimated to be large. But if you can exchange the lives of this entire squadron of little devils. Old Nine, they're worth it."

"Captain Lu has already passed through the liaison office of the Eighth Route Army in Wuyuan City. I got in touch with Captain Wang by telegram. Captain Wang said that he would soon lead his troops to attack the little devil's cantonment. If the little devils don't want all the reclamation points they have worked so hard to build uprooted. It is necessary to divide troops from the Black Stone Village to rescue." Zhang Songling thought about it. Added in a whisper on the side.

The entire action plan. Including the Jin Sui Army and the Eighth Route Army guerrillas. It's all about the same as he had imagined in the afternoon. It made him feel very accomplished. So don't mind pleasing yourself. Take it out and share it with your friends.

Zhao Tianlong's face immediately swelled up with a little admiration. looked Zhang Songling up and down. Praise loudly." That's really good. You. It's not just General Fu Zuoyi who accepted your suggestion. Even our red master. I also have a heart-to-heart with you."

"Captain Wang has never done anything that is inconsistent with the strength of our guerrillas," Zhang Songling waved his hand. Don't dare to be greedy." I envisioned it before. It is also proposed based on the current strength of our guerrillas. Captain Wang knows more about this than I do. Of course, I won't be reckless and directly lead the troops to fight the little devils."

"That's your brain spinning, too." Zhao Tianlong commented with a smile. Don't forget to hit Zhou Hei Carbon." Unlike some people. When you're in a hurry, you just know how to cry."

"Didn't I care about it at the time?" Zhou Hei Carbon was exposed in front of him. Immediately blushing and shouting defense." After all, they are blocked in the city. They are all our brothers from the Black Wolf Gang."

"And now. Now how can you not be in a hurry.." Zhao Tianlong pursed his lips. Keep talking coldly.

"Haven't I done my best to figure it out now?" Zhou Heitan stiffened his neck and argued. And you have said it. It's useless to be in a hurry. There's that kung fu. It is better to think about how to avenge the brothers in the future."

"I see. It's Fu Zuoyi who promises you any benefits." With many years of understanding of Zhou Black Carbon. Zhao Tianlongxin ridiculed.

"Nope. Nope." Zhou Black Carbon loudly denied it. But an embarrassed expression on the face. But it exposed his weakness at this time.

Zhao Tianlong and Zhang Songling turned their gazes to him in unison. Staring into his eyes, pouting and sneering. Forced by the gaze of the two of them to have no way back. Zhou Hei Carbon struggled for a moment. Frustrated admitted." All right. General Fu Zuoyi did promise to replenish me with a battalion of munitions. But that's also after I've filled a battalion. It has nothing to do with this battle."

"You kid." Zhao Tianlong and Zhang Songling shook their heads together. In addition to the ridicule in the eyes. also with a bit of envy. There is a way to lean against a big tree to enjoy the shade. Zhou Hei Carbon accepted the step of Jin Suijun's adaptation. At the moment it seems to be on the right track. At least. Fu Zuoyi is a responsible person. will not let his independent battalion die in vain.

"Don't look at me like that. You guerrillas. There is no less benefit. General Fu personally agreed at the meeting. Wait until the beginning of spring next year. A special shipment of supplies will be sent to Chahar. support the construction of local anti-Japanese armed forces." Zhou Hei Carbon is unwilling to bear the blow of two people alone. Fight back loudly.

The three brothers are giggling. It didn't take long for each of them to exchange their knowledge. That night, I slept soundly. Nourish the spirit. The next day, I got up early and had a send-off meal. Under the farewell of several grassroots cadres of the Jin Sui Army. Brought the team out of Gohara Castle.

It was not far from the city gates. Then he saw a few horses parked beside the road leading to the east. on horseback. Siqin took two personal maids. Smile and wave to everyone.

"Don't get over yet." Zhou Hei Carbon pushed Zhao Tianlong hard. Shouted narrowly." What do you have to say slowly? There is no hurry. We go slowly. How to delay. You can catch up."

Si Qin's face was flushed with yelling. Immediately hit the stirrup hard. Brandishing a leather whip, he rushed up. Pumping at Zhou Heicarbon's shoulder." Damn it. The two of us say how long. It's your business. There is a kind of you don't want to please a wife in this life. Just a single person. When the time comes. We can both laugh however you want."

"Oops. Oops." Zhou Heitan was beaten loudly and begged for mercy." It's amazing. Not yet married. I have taken care of my husband. If this becomes a pro. Who will go to Brother Long's house again in the future? Which joke is ruthless. It's all about a leather whip."

"Phew. I don't smoke others. Specifically pumping you. See once and draw once." Si Qin blushed and spat out. Put down the whip. Turn your head to Zhao Tianlong." Brother Long. You come here. I have something to tell you."

"If you have something to say, you can say it here." Zhao Tianlong also blushed. Respond with the wrong mouth. But his hands and feet betrayed him. Unobedient to the urge of the mount. followed Siqin's side.

In the good-natured laughter of the crowd. Si Qin led him slowly out of the avenue. Turn a few solitary sand willows. Look at the distance from everyone. before jumping off the mount. whispered, "Go back this time. You have to be careful. I know you're a hero. So don't hold you back either. But when fighting with the little devils. You have to take care of yourself. Don't be as indifferent as you used to. Your life is not your own. And one more belongs to me."

"I know. I don't just fight with people." Zhao Tianlong also jumped off the mount. Whisper in response." Be careful when you go to Chongqing. I heard the little fat man say. Those who are in office are very attentive. Look at the value you have when you have a use. Holding you like the moon. But once you accidentally offend them. They'll find ways to kill you. year. The commander of the regiment where the little fat man belonged died in a daze. Don't fall for them."

"I will. You can rest assured." Si Qin nodded slightly. Looking at Zhao Tianlong's gaze, it was like two spring streams." I can feel who is really good to me. Who is trying to take advantage of me. If it weren't for the family business that Abba left behind. I wouldn't have considered going to Chongqing at all. But since I went. You have to get a result and come back."

"That's nature." Zhao Tianlong nodded in understanding. I'm you. I must also go back to Chongqing. King De and their people will not last long. The little devil does bad things on the prairie. It's definitely not going to be a big deal."

"If only you could understand my choice." Si Qin smiled. Go on." These days. I've been a little worried. I'm worried that you think I've changed. Slowly distance yourself from me. But it's full of outsiders. I don't know how to explain it to you........"

Zhao Tianlong was embarrassed. Hurry up and wave your hand vigorously." No need to explain. No need to explain. I understand you. I really understand you."

Siqin shook his head. The smile on his face became more and more gentle." Brother Long. You don't interrupt. Listen to me slowly. Ever since your master took you away. I just thought. When I grow up. I'm going to get you back. Later, I met you on the steppe. But you will not recognize me; You don't know how sad I was at the time. But even then. I still believe it. You don't really like me. You'll be there someday when I need it most. Appeared in front of me by himself........"

"I. I ......." Zhao Tianlong's eyes were hot. Immediately my chest was filled with tenderness." I. I really didn't mean to hurt you at the time. I. I just ,,,,,,,,"

"I know. I know." Si Qin leaned over. Cover Zhao Tianlong's mouth with his fingers." You do not have to explain. I know. But. Brother Long. You should also know. I'm a person. This heart. It's all yours. It doesn't matter if you're poor or rich. It doesn't matter where you go. Nothing will change. I know these days are making you miserable. Tired. But I believe in both of us. I won't be able to overcome even the slightest hurdle like this."

"I. I ....... "Zhao Tianlong is ashamed again. Touched again. Blushing and not knowing what to say. Si Qin suddenly opened her arms. Hold him tight. Pressed his face to his chest." If you need to. I can pull out my heart and show you. There's no other than you. There's no room for anything anymore."

"I. Me too." Feel the warmth from your chest. Zhao Tianlong's heart fluctuated. Sister. You can rest assured. I'm a person who occasionally makes mistakes. Will find trouble for himself himself. But. But I want you to be doing well. Even if. Even if I lay down my life for you. I. I ...... too."

"Don't. No. I don't want you to lay down your life for it. I don't want you to suffer any grievances for me." Si Qin hugged Zhao Tianlong hard. As if I let go. The other party will grow wings and fly away." I want you to be with me for the rest of my life. From now to eighty years old. One hundred years old. Wait until the day we're both old. Just find a huge coffin and bury it together. They Han people have a saying. It is called the same life and the same death. In my heart. That's me and you."

"I thought so, too." Zhao Tianlong nodded solemnly. Holding Siqin in both hands. It's like holding a priceless treasure. Neither of them wanted to talk anymore from this moment on. Just hugging each other tightly. Feel each other's heartbeats quietly. Feel the heat wave in your blood together. One volt. Together. One volt. at the same temperature. Same beat. Slowly surging to the horizon. The whole world floods the body inside and outside.

I don't know how long it took. A narrow voice came from my ears again. Wake the two of them up from their lingering." Kiss her. Kiss her. Brother Long. If you don't dare to kiss him today. You're the rubbish." lest the world be in chaos. Zhou Hei Carbon shouted while shouting. While clapping his hands vigorously.

"Kiss her. Kiss her. Brother Long. Oh........" The brethren of the independent camp followed their own leaders. A heckling. Siqin's two maids were furious. Carrying a horsewhip and beating around. But everyone higgled and avoided him. Continue to watch the excitement around the two protagonists Si Qin and Zhao Tianlong.

Suddenly. All the laughter is stuck in my throat. In the eyes of everyone. Si Qin resolutely raised his head. Raise two flaming red lips.

At that moment. The flames have burned the eyes of an unknown number of people.
