Chapter 1 Mountain Residence (No. 5 Middle School)

Looking at the pair of backs supporting each other far away, the guerrilla leader Wu Nan shook his head, leaving the regret full of regret behind him for the time being, "Immediately form the team, we have to hurry up and get out of here!" The little devil has a car to travel, and the distance of dozens of miles is just a blink of an eyelid. Last time, there was a village on the side of Erdaoliang because they withdrew too slowly, and they were blocked by devils, and there were 60 men, women, and children, and there was not a single living mouth! ”

He said this to the guerrillas under his command, but it seemed that his voice was a little louder, and it accidentally reached the ears of several villagers squatting by the fire. As a result, the families who refused to get up even if they were dumb even though Political Commissar Ren Li had said that they had been pricked by a needle immediately jumped up and fled without looking back.

Now that the people have withdrawn, there is no point in the guerrillas continuing to stay. After all, they have only been formed for less than half a year, and they are not qualified to fight hard with the devil's army in terms of weapons and personnel quality. Immediately, the group took the weapons and ammunition they had just collected from the battlefield and calmly retreated along another road. Before leaving, don't forget to add a bayonet to each devil corpse on the ground, so as not to have any fish that slip through the net.

This hasty and brief battle was not the first battle since the formation of the guerrillas. But when it comes to the results of the battle, it is far from being possible in any previous battle. In the past, Wu Nan and Li Guodong also led their guerrillas to sneak attack the devils and puppet army, but because their combat effectiveness still needs to be improved, they have to retreat quickly every time they overturn a few enemies. There has never been a battle of annihilation even on the scale of a small detachment, let alone a battlefield cleaned up calmly!

Only this time, not only did everyone wrap up all the remaining three real devils, but also scared away a whole squad of puppet soldiers by the way; Nineteen rifles, a command knife, and even a grenadier that I never dreamed of before were all picked up from the battlefield.

Ninety percent of these new weapons are enough to raise the guerrillas' overall combat effectiveness to a higher level. In particular, the grenadier that had never fired a single grenade made everyone feel like a tiger. Although the barrel of the grenadier was dented by a bullet, even after repair, it could not reach the original shooting accuracy, but compared to the original trebuchet made of bamboo, it was at least four or five hundred years ahead!

"I was still thinking just now, why did the little devil pick the door this time, and he didn't bring a grenadier? It turned out that it wasn't that I didn't bring it, but it was scrapped before I could use it! The guerrilla leader Wu Nan touched the hole in the body of the grenadier with his hand and sighed with admiration.

Li Guodong and he are cadres sent to the grassroots level from the same team, and they have known each other for many years, and almost as soon as the other party opens his mouth, he can guess what the real meaning of this sentence is. smiled and said in a low voice: "Of course, after all, it is the officer seed that Sun Lianzhong piled up with the ocean, may his ability be too bad?" But no matter how good he is, you don't have to worry about it. It's not a family, you can't enter a family. With his attitude towards Da Niu Niang just now, I'm afraid we can't have a place for him in our guerrillas! ”

"I really don't blame him for that incident just now!" Wu Nan shook his head and defended Zhang Songling in a low voice, "If any young man is in his position, I'm afraid he can't let the big cow girl poke out the eyes of his daughter-in-law who has not passed the door." Besides, didn't you see, from beginning to end, the box cannon in his hand was not opened! ”

"Whether it's open or not, he can't do that! The big cow girl is a little splashed, but he is a soldier, and he can't compare with the common people who is of lower quality. Li Guodong pursed his lips, his face full of contempt, "Why is it difficult for their Kuomintang army to take root behind enemy lines; And our Communist army, but can develop and grow under the noses of devils? Here's the key! You have to be able to get along with the people, and sometimes, knowing that you are reasoning, you have to let the people smooth out this breath first! As for their national army, they always feel that they have worked hard and made great achievements, and they always put up a shelf in front of the common people and act as an uncle. So in the eyes of the common people, it is basically no different from a little devil. Not even willing to take the slightest risk to help them! ”

After all, he is a political cadre, and he can raise anything to the height of the overall situation of heroic resistance against Japan. The number is down, and there is no room for others to argue. Captain Wu Nan reacted slowly, and wanted to interrupt several times, but he didn't find the right time. It wasn't until Li Guodong finished saying all the words that he cleared his throat and replied in a low voice, "How did I hear that he was secretly picked up from the dead man's pile by the old hunter!" Then the old Orion, how can he be regarded as a member of the people? ”

"That's because the old hunter wants to recruit him as a son-in-law!" Li Guodong raised his voice a little and frowned and refuted. I don't know why, from the first time he saw Zhang Songling, he didn't have the slightest good impression of this person. Although he knew in his heart that this man surpassed any member of the guerrilla team, including himself, in terms of marksmanship and battlefield sense. Once pulled into the ranks, the benefits must be far greater than a dozen rifles and a broken grenadier.

"Those villagers from Longquan Village didn't report him to the little devil either!" didn't understand why his old partner was so stubborn today, Wu Nan was a little angry in his heart, and his voice increased greatly unconsciously. "I don't think we can turn him away because he has a conflict with the people today. Yes, he is a little wild, and he is indeed not polite enough to Da Niu Niang, but on our side, don't you still have political commissar Li? You can educate him slowly and help him correct his mistakes little by little! You know, a veteran like him who has fought a big battle, even if he is placed in our main army, is a baby bump. You don't want it today, someone will snatch him away in the future! ”

"That's your opinion!" Li Guodong shrugged his shoulders slightly, "I know, your eyes have been on him since last winter. But don't forget, he's the officer seed of the Twenty-Sixth Road! He has won two Baoding Medals of the National Government in a row, and his future is very great on the side of the brothers of the National Army! If you leave such a big Buddha in our small temple that has just been built for a few days, aren't you afraid that the roof will be pierced by others? When the time comes, General Sun Lianzhong beckons, will you let people go, or let him pull our entire guerrilla force to the Kuomintang?! ”

"You're a bit of a strong word, aren't you?" The more the guerrilla leader Wu Nan listened, the more he felt that his old partner's words were unreliable, and he glared and reminded, "If he can pull the guerrillas to the side of the national army, wouldn't it prove that the two of us are waste?!" Lao Li, which tendon are you twisting today, how can you pick up these inconsequential words! ”

"Anyway, I'm the political commissar, I can't rely on your temperament!" Li Guodong also knew that his last sentence just now was a bit alarmist, thought about it, and added with a straight face, "He has good marksmanship, strong battlefield survivability, and high ability to grasp fighters, which are all facts." However, it is also true that their 26th Route Army has always had a hostile attitude towards the ranks of our Communist Party! I can't let you take the risk of blind military supremacy just because you cherish your talents for a while! ”

"Then you mean to say that if I bring in a Kuomintang soldier, I just don't talk about politics?!" Wu Nan couldn't bear it anymore and asked with a frown.

Li Guodong shrugged, without the slightest intention of backing down, "That's what you thought for yourself." I'm just doing my part. Although the cooperation between the KMT and the CCP is the mainstream at present, we have to keep some eyes on it. After all, if there is another "412", I am afraid that our Eighth Route Army will be difficult to afford! ”

Both of them were the backbone of the army who participated in the Northern Expedition, and they still have fresh memories of the "April 12" incident. In that unavoidable tragedy in Chinese history, the Communists were killed by their allies who suddenly turned their faces and bled in a river because they did not take the slightest precautions. Although it is now the mainstream for the Kuomintang and the Communist Party to join forces to resist Japan, anyone who has witnessed and heard about that incident may not be sure that one day the friendly forces will suddenly turn their faces again. You must know that just a week before "April 12", the same person who presided over the overall situation of the National War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression today personally presented the slaughtered with a pennant with the four characters "Struggle Together"!

"You can't choke on food!" Wu Nan was so angry that he had forgotten the reason for the dispute and protested loudly.

"If you don't eat this piece of meat, you won't starve to death!" Li Guodong looked at Wu Nan's eyes and looked at each other.

Since the two have partnered, they have rarely argued in front of the players, let alone quarreled so fiercely. The guerrillas who were walking in front were frightened by the sound of the quarrel and turned back one after another, cautiously asking what had happened between the two leaders. Wu Nan and Li Guodong immediately realized that the timing of the dispute was wrong, and they each breathed a sigh of relief, and waved at the team members with a smile, "Go and go, don't ask." The two of us communicate and exchange feelings! ”

"Yes, yes, we exchange feelings. We've been exchanging feelings like this all the time! ”

Exchange of feelings, between two big men?! The partisans were stunned, laughed and turned their heads away. Li Guodong didn't want to affect his cooperation with Wu Nan because of the departure and stay of a Kuomintang soldier, so he hesitated for a moment and took the initiative to back down, "If you really think that the advantages of taking him in for us outweigh the disadvantages, I won't stop you." But I'll keep an eye on him so I don't have any problems in the future! ”

"I want to stay, but you didn't let me stay when they left just now, and now if I go to the thatched house again, I'm afraid it won't have any effect!" Wu Nan sighed and said faintly.

People who have the ability are usually more individual. From his point of view, Zhang Songling is definitely a young man with a very personality. On the surface, he treats everyone politely, but in his bones there is a touch of arrogance that he can't bend. The guerrillas did not send him an invitation at the first time, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for him to approve him again in the future. Especially since he already has a prejudice against the guerrillas in his heart and misses the original secret service group very much, any effort may be in vain.

"Then what the hell am I going to do?" Li Guodong really didn't expect that a wounded Kuomintang soldier would actually occupy such a heavy weight in the heart of his old partner, he was stunned, and his inquiring tone once again brought out a strong dissatisfaction.

"Find him first and help him redeem Uncle Meng's body from the puppet army!" Wu Nan glanced at his partner and sighed, "This can be regarded as a personal favor for the Su political commissar of our 79th regiment." Last year, when he was about to be divided, Political Commissar Su told me that when he was in the medical service of the 27th Division, he once met a patriotic young man named Zhang Songling, and asked him about the combat characteristics of the Japanese army. When Political Commissar Su was about to be discharged from the hospital, he also gave him a five-pointed star, hoping that he would have the opportunity to pull him into our team in the future......"

Before Wu Nan finished speaking, Li Guodong jumped up and interrupted, "Political Commissar Su mentioned him, why didn't you say it earlier!" ”

"I haven't waited to say it, you should start giving me the platform first!" Wu Nan glanced at him again, shrugged his shoulders and complained. The old partner is good at everything, but he is too dogmatic, and his utilitarianism is a little bit heavy. Therefore, although the two have a tacit understanding during this time, they have always been emotionally pimple, and it is difficult for them to treat each other with all sincerity.

"I'll send someone to find him!" Since the old political commissar of the main force was optimistic about that young man, Li Guodong didn't think that this person would bring any risk to the guerrillas, thought about it, and took the initiative to make amends, "His little daughter-in-law is the daughter of the prey, and I am afraid that he has already prepared a temporary hiding place in the mountains." I sent a few more people into the mountains to find them, and at the same time contacted our related households to see if we could get the puppet army to take the initiative to throw the old hunter's body into a mass grave outside the city. Well, on the side of Political Commissar Su, it is better for us to send a letter and tell him that the patriotic young man he mentioned is now recuperating under our noses. If the main force needs it, they can send someone to pick him up at any time......."

"Hmm!" Wu Nan nodded, a little absent-minded. He is not optimistic about the effect of these remedies, but he can do something, after all, it is better than not doing nothing. After all, most of the gains of the guerrillas today have to be attributed to the little fat man. On this basis, the guerrillas should also return the favor.

As for whether he continues to be a national army in the future, or changes to his own side, why be too demanding. After all, he is a Chinese soldier, and he fights all little devils!
