Chapter 2: Passing the Hall (5)

Feng Yunong went out for a long time, Lin Hu sat in the house more and more uneasy, he took a sip of the tea in front of him, he didn't even taste the taste, bored pacing back and forth in the room, he really wanted to rush out of this cage, run outside and yell loudly. There was a time when he really wanted to do this, but when he came to the door and saw the Red Army soldiers with loaded guns outside, reason immediately prevailed over impulse. He also knows that he is cowardly, that is, afraid of death.

He came to the window and slowly pushed it open, thinking to himself, opening the window should not be forbidden, right?

Looking out of the window, you can only see the scene in this courtyard, which is built with a tall brick wall, and nothing can be seen except for a tall poplar tree showing its face outside the wall.

There were not many people in and out of the courtyard, but it was the two little Red Army soldiers standing guard at the gate that attracted his attention, because these two people were about the same age as him.

Looking at their serious faces and standing straight, Lin Hu couldn't help but think of himself. When I stood guard for the first time, wasn't it so serious? Just a year later, he became a soldier.

"Xiao Yang, is Comrade Yunong here?" Suddenly, a woman's voice came from the gate of the courtyard, which was crisp and beautiful, especially the tone, which was clearly a fellow countryman.

The little warrior standing on the left replied, "He's inside, and he's interrogating the white dog!" Lin Hu knew that these Red Army soldiers liked to call their soldiers "white dogs", just as they called the Red Army "chi' bandits".

"Then I won't go in!" The woman's voice came: "You help me give him these boxes of lights!" ”

"Turn on the lights?" Xiao Yang was very surprised, and then said, "Isn't this a foreign fire?" How do you call it a light? ”

The woman said: "Hehe, this is our old family's words, referring to foreign fire!" ”

"Okay!" Xiao Yang replied.

Lin Hu was very surprised, listening to this voice made him suddenly think of a person, he couldn't help but look at the door, and saw a female soldier wearing a Red Army uniform, without a hat, with short neck-length hair, was about to leave, looking at her silhouette, he couldn't help but think of a person. He felt that she looked like her, and he didn't think she was like, which made him hesitate.

"Miss!" Lin Hu still shouted, the woman should have heard it, but she didn't look back, she had already left.

The guard standing at the door stretched out his head and scolded Lin Hu: "Don't shout loudly!" ”

Lin Hu had no choice but to put away the loud voice that he was about to put back and retract his body into the window. I felt more and more strange in my heart, what I saw just now seemed to be the eldest lady Feng Yuyan, didn't she follow Mr. Yang to Shanghai? How did it come to this place? But think about it, since the eldest young master can be here, it is not surprising that the eldest young lady appears here.

Since the eldest young master and the eldest lady are both in the Red Army, then they also have to join the Red Army.

Lin Hu remembered what Li Dazhuan had told him when he left, the Red Army is a poor man's army, everyone is poor, so they should join the poor man's team, and they can't work hard for those landlords and tyrants anymore.

"The poor don't fight the poor! Soldiers don't fight soldiers! Fight the local tyrants and divide the fields! The people are the masters of the country! Those slogans vividly appeared in Lin Hu's mind again, and he was in a surging mood and secretly made up his mind!

*****************************

The door was opened again, and Feng Yunong walked in with a depressed face.

At this time, Lin Hu was still so excited, he didn't notice the change in Feng Yunong's face, and before he could speak, he said excitedly: "Big brother, I have decided, I want to join you, I want to be a Red Army!" ”

Feng Yunong was stunned, he didn't expect Lin Hu to change so quickly, his face flickered, and he was clearly hesitating in his heart.

Lin Hu's childlike face bloomed with a bright smile, and seeing that Feng Yunong didn't speak, he pretended to say mysteriously: "Big brother, do you know who I saw just now?" It's the eldest lady, it must be the eldest lady! ”

Feng Yunong's gaze was directly on Lin Hu's face, staring into his eyes, what he saw was a pair of pure and simple eyes, which was trust in him and reverence for him, and he suddenly felt a little dirty. Lin Hu can also be regarded as his playmate since childhood, although he was still very young at that time, but after all, it was a part of his childhood.

He shook his head violently, feeling that he was a little out of shape, shook his head again, regained his due calmness, and calmly told Lin Hu: "Huzi, you are wrong, Yuyan is not here, and I haven't seen her either!" ”

"But...... But I seem to see her? Lin Hu was a little unsure.

"Do you really have to see her face?"

Lin Hu shook his head and said truthfully: "I only saw her silhouette and heard her voice, and I asked the guard at the door to bring you a lamp just now!" ”

"You must be mistaken!" Feng Yunong said affirmatively: "What you see may be one of my comrades, and I am a fellow countryman!" ”

Hearing Feng Yunong say this, it made Lin Hu a little embarrassed. Think about it, maybe he was too impressed by the eldest lady, so he had preconceived thoughts, and then pondered carefully, that female Red Army did not look like the eldest lady.

"Hehe, let's not talk about her! Let's talk about you! Feng Yunong brought the topic back to reality.

As soon as he heard this, Lin Hu immediately sat up straight and looked serious.

Feng Yunong pursed his lips, but he didn't speak for a long time.

"Big brother, say it quickly, I can do anything!" Lin Hu became anxious.

"Alright! I'll tell you the truth! Feng Yunong said helplessly: "The above does not agree to let you go, nor does it agree to let you join us!" ”

Lin Hu was stunned, a sense of fear that he had never felt before suddenly hit his heart, and he remembered Ouyang Lie's analysis, if the Red Army did not trust him, then his fate seemed to be only one.

"Why?" He still couldn't help but ask.

"Xiao Huang, the commander of the 11th Division, is a very influential figure in the reactionary army of the National Dang, we have always wanted to catch him, but in the end we let him escape!" Feng Yunong told Lin Hu.

I don't know why, when he heard the news, Lin Hu felt a sense of relief, he didn't save Xiao Huang in vain, and Master Xiao had escaped safely.

Feng Yunong continued: "Why doesn't Xiao Huang change clothes with others, only with you?" In addition, according to the other captives we interrogated, they all pointed out that you are Xiao Huang's best friend! ”

"I'm wronged!" Lin Hu hurriedly defended: "I'm just his personal guard, I'm a service soldier, what if I don't listen to him?" ”

"But it's useless for you to say this, you are actually the culprit who helped Xiao Huang escape, if you are let go like this, no one else will do it!"

Lin Hu was silent, it was true, if it weren't for him, Xiao Huang would have been captured a long time ago.

"And!" Lin Hu said: "Under the defeat, everyone is running away on their own, but you are different, you ran with Xiao Huang, Xiao Huang was injured, and some people saw that you were running behind him, even if you are not a reactionary, you are also a lackey of the reactionary!" ”

Lin Hu was speechless, he raised his head and looked at Feng Yunong pitifully, and after a long time, he asked in a trembling voice: "You ...... You're not really going to shoot me, are you? ”

Looking at Lin Hu's appearance, Feng Yunong tried his best to keep himself serious, without any expression on his face, he nodded solemnly, and said softly: "This is also possible!" ”

Tears were about to roll out of Lin Hu's eyes, he pursed his lips, opened his eyes wide, didn't dare to blink again, and tried his best to prevent the tears from falling. After a long time, he calmed himself down, and said to Feng Yunong: "Big brother, you must help me, I haven't lived enough, I don't want to die, I haven't even touched a woman, and I want to marry a wife in the future!" ”

Feng Yunong almost laughed out loud, other people's families thought about their parents and children before they died, but Lin Hu thought about women, if he really had to be in the Red Army, he would have been criticized and killed by everyone.

He forced a smile, still with a straight face, walked up to Lin Hu, patted him on the shoulder as if comforting, and persuaded him with good words: "Huzi, that's it, you go back first, but don't worry, I will definitely find a way!" ”

Hearing Feng Yunong say this, it immediately made Lin Hu's heart suddenly light up hope again.

Lin Hu was escorted out of the mansion and disappeared outside the gate.

Minister Li walked over from outside, looked at Lin Hu's disappearing figure through the window with Feng Yunong, and the two of them looked at each other again, and then no one could help it, and laughed out loud together.

Half a day later, Feng Yunong recovered from the laughter and said to Minister Li: "I'll just say it, this kid is very interesting, in the words of our hometown, it is the axis." Any idea what an axis is? It's just a tendon that won't bend! Hehe, and he is a person, when he was a child, he loved to cry, greedy for money and afraid of death, once he fell off the back of the cow, and lay on the ground and cried endlessly, and then I said that the cow was crazy and ran over, and he was so frightened that he immediately got up from the ground and ran, which was faster than any of us! ”

Minister Li stopped laughing, but was a little worried: "Do you say this is okay?" What if others can't believe me? ”

"Don't worry, don't look at the shaft, but this kid is smart, and he is very righteous, and he has a lot of eyes! He is Xiao Huang's cronies, and it is definitely more suitable to change someone else without him! ”

"Hmm!" Minister Li nodded.
