At about half past two in the afternoon, on the top of Luohuang Mountain, twenty miles away from Pingding Mountain, a Xiaowang village with a population of nearly 400 people was located there.

Xiaowang Village was built on the top of a hill, and the village was surrounded by sharpened wood by the villagers, leaving only two gates to descend the mountain.

These villagers all went up the mountain to escape the fighting.

At this time, at the foot of the mountain, Zhao Kun led 8,000 people to surround Luohuang Mountain layer by layer.

Looking at Luohuang Mountain not far away, Zhao Kun hooked up a smile and said, "Liangzi, are the bandits on this mountain?" ”

"Brigade commander, my message will not be wrong, they are on the top of the mountain, we can send two battalions to fight." Man Liang said with a smile.

"Well, then it's up to you, Captain Wang, you can send someone up." Zhao Kun looked at a regiment leader next to him and said.

"Yes." Commander Wang nodded, and immediately ran to give the order, and soon, two battalions, eight hundred people, broke away from the team and went up the mountain from the east and west.

The mountains are wooded and overgrown with weeds.

The battalion commander who led the team in the east is called Huang Shaojie, who is 23 years old this year.

"Battalion commander, what is this Brigade Commander Zhao up to? Shouldn't we go to support Qinghe County? How did you run over and fight the bandits. On the way up the mountain, an eighteen or nineteen-year-old boy said to Huang Shaojie that his name was Li Qingshan.

"The ghost knows what the brigade commander thinks, I guess the brigade commander is afraid of death and wants to delay the time to support, and when the time comes, Qinghe County will be lost, and the brigade commander will not have to support." Huang Shaojie said.

"What? Did the brigade commander think so? The teenager was shocked.

"Eighty percent of them." Huang Shaojie nodded and said.

"Oh my God! I heard that the regiment commander of Qinghe County is the son-in-law of Division Commander Zeng, is the brigade commander afraid that Division Commander Zeng will kill him if he does this? The boy said.

"No, Brigade Commander Zhao dares to do it, I'm afraid of Division Commander Zeng, I heard that Brigade Commander Zhao is actually not Division Commander Zeng's person." Huang Shaojie said.

Zhao Kun is not the person of the division commander, and he heard the news by chance.

"Huh? Isn't it someone who has been a teacher? In that case, we are not soldiers of the division commander? What is this, I don't understand. "The boy was a little confused.

"If you don't understand, don't listen, don't tell anyone else what I tell you, or I'll both die." Huang Shaojie warned with a serious face.

The boy nodded, although he didn't know why the battalion commander didn't let him say it, but he just did it, anyway, the battalion commander wouldn't be afraid.

"Okay, don't talk nonsense, it's almost to the top of the mountain, your first time fighting, be careful, bandits are also very vicious." Huang Shaojie reminded the soldier.

"Got it." The boy nodded.

Soon, when they were about to reach the top of the mountain, Huang Shaojie stopped, he frowned, feeling that something was wrong.

"Battalion commander, what's wrong?" Li Qingshan asked.

"It's weird, all the way up the mountain, I didn't encounter patrolling bandits." Huang Shaojie muttered.

"Maybe the bandits didn't send a patrol at all because they didn't think anyone would come, or maybe the patrol team was lazy." Li Qingshan said.

"Well, it's possible, keep going!" Huang Shaojie ordered.

Soon, they reached the top of the mountain, they climbed in the woods and saw the gate of Xiaowang Village not far away.

But Huang Shaojie didn't rush into action, because he found that the gate was actually open, and several people could be seen carrying a hoe out.

It looks like it's going down the mountain.

"Battalion commander, is it the bandits' patrol that has come out, are you going to shoot?" Li Qingshan said that he had already taken aim.

"Open your head, whose bandit patrol uses a hoe as a weapon, this is a villager at all!" Huang Shaojie said.

"Not necessarily, they may be poorer and don't have guns." Li Qingshan whispered.

"It's possible, but don't rush to shoot, grab a few people who come over and ask about the situation." Huang Shaojie immediately ordered some soldiers to ambush the villagers who came over.

"Brother Wang, did your wife give birth to a boy or a girl?"

"Hey, boy."

"Wow, Brother Wang can."

Several villagers came over and talked from time to time.

At this moment, several soldiers rushed out from the side of the road.

"Don't move! Hands up! ”

Several soldiers of the national army pointed guns at the villagers, and the hoes of three villagers fell to the ground in fear.

Hurriedly knelt down.

"The military master spares his life, the military master spares his life, we didn't do anything bad." The three villagers begged for mercy.

"Stop talking nonsense, come over to me." Several soldiers escorted the villagers to Huang Shaojie.

"Battalion commander, people have brought."

Huang Shaojie looked at the three villagers who were trembling, and was about to speak, but the three villagers knelt down again.

"Master Jun spares his life, we didn't do anything bad." Three villagers begged for mercy.

"Shut up! What a noise! Li Qingshan shouted.

The three villagers immediately did not dare to speak.

"Why are you bandits?" Huang Shaojie opened his mouth and said.

As soon as the words came out, the three villagers were stunned, and one of them hurriedly said: "What bandits, we are all villagers who went up the mountain to escape the war, how can we become bandits?" ”

"Oh? So, you're not bandits? Huang Shaojie said.

"We're really not bandits, you don't believe you can bring people into the village to have a look, it's all unarmed villagers." A villager hurriedly said.

"If you lie to me, you know the consequences." Huang Shaojie said that although he didn't look like the villagers were lying, he felt that he should be careful.

"Don't dare, we dare to lie to you."

"Preferably." Huang Shaojie got up.

At the same time, the battalion commander who led the team in the west was also about to reach the top of the mountain, but they also stopped, and unlike Huang Shaojie, they stopped to rest, instead of finding that something was wrong.

"Battalion commander, aren't we going up quickly? The first battalion may be robbed of the credit later. A soldier came to the battalion commander and said.

"What's the hurry, when the first battalion is almost fought, we will go up, we can preserve our strength and have merit, why not?" The battalion commander opened his mouth and said, this is a young man with a pimple on his face.

"Hehe, it's still the battalion commander."

………

At this time, Huang Shaojie also brought people into Xiaowang Village.

The villagers were a little nervous when they saw them coming.

Because, Xiaowang Village has not been visited by outsiders for a long time.

"Battalion commander, they seem to be really villagers." Li Qingshan whispered in Huang Shaojie's ear.

At this time, an old man stepped forward.

"Don't move!" Seeing that he was about to approach, Huang Shaojie was immediately pointed at a gun by a soldier.

The old man was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.

"Put the gun down!" Huang Shaojie drank lightly.

The soldier then put the gun down.

"Master Jun, do you have something to do with Xiaowang Village?" The old man was hunched over his waist and his hair was gray.

Huang Shaojie's face was cold, and he immediately ordered: "Take everyone in the village to the open space, and then carefully check if there are any guns in their homes!" ”
