"Nope! Keep him! Xiao Yazhi said very resolutely. Why? A group of people looked at her puzzledly, could it be that the head of this secret bureau would be kind? "Captain Luo! You let Chen Xinlian go, don't give others the truth that we are killing party-state officials indiscriminately. Such! When you let the wind out, you say that he told the security team a secret and betrayed his son-in-law with his own hands. You don't know, do you? This trick is called 'life is better than death', and it is more uncomfortable than killing him! In the future, not only the Communist Party, but also the local people will no longer believe him, and he will spend the rest of his life in remorse and humiliation. This is the end of opposing the party-state! ”

"Stationmaster Xiao is worthy of being the elite of the party-state spy industry! Killing people doesn't see blood, unlike our martial artists, who know how to kill, kill, kill, kill ......" Guo Lian and others admired it so much that they threw themselves to the ground.

Guo Lian left a small number of people to assist Luo Sanyou's self-defense forces to guard Dadeng, and he took the others with Xiao Yazhi to leave Dadeng Town and return to Longcheng.

On the way back with Hou Liang on his back, Yang Ruping encountered osmanthus and fragrant plum. Seeing that Hou Liang was covered in blood, Osmanthus called out while holding on to the side: "Liangzi! What happened to you? Hou Liang pretended to smile and replied, "Flowers! I'm fine! Don't worry, I'm just shot in the stomach, it's not critical, it'll be fine soon! Yang Ruping carried Hou Liang on his back to a hillside outside the town, and when he saw that the enemy was not chasing him, he stopped, put Hou Liang off his back, and ordered the troops to stand by.

"Hygienist! Hurry! Heal the Captain's wounds! Yang Ruping called the hygienist. The hygienist rushed over and opened the medicine box. Then check Hou Liang's injuries with Yang Ruping. Osmanthus also had to help, Yang Ruping ordered Xiangmei and others to take the osmanthus away. He didn't want Osmanthus to see this bloody scene, he was afraid that Osmanthus wouldn't be able to stand this kind of stimulation. When the hygienist ripped off the clothes on the front and back of Hou Liang's body, the scene in front of him surprised the comrades present. Hou Liang was shot by a bullet in the stomach, on the surface, it was not serious, but when he opened his back to check. The area on his back was all shattered by bullets, and a bloody hole was still bubbling with blood. The hygienist hurriedly poured the only small bottle of hemostatic powder left in the medicine box onto the wound. Use all the gauze to bandage Hou Liang's front and back wounds. After bandaging the wound, Hou Liang was laid flat and placed under a tall and large kapok tree. Osmanthus came to take care of him. Feed him some water. Xiangmei is on the side to help take care of it. Yang Ruping called the hygienist aside and asked about the injury.

"How's the captain's injury?"

"Very badly wounded!"

"How so? Isn't it just a bullet in the stomach? It's not a vital part. Yang Ruping said this, just to get a glimmer of hope from the hygienist. Everyone could see that the captain's back injury was very serious. Yang Ruping, who has fought for many years, knows very well in his heart that the captain is a flowering bullet. The enemy is vicious! I just want his life! No way! We must save the captain's life and never let the enemy's conspiracy succeed!

"I don't care what method you use, you have to save the captain. Do you hear that? Yang Ruping ordered.

"Deputy Captain Yang! The captain lost a lot of blood, and now he has been sent to the hospital. It's too late, not to mention how can there be a hospital in this area? ”

"I don't care! You have to save him! Yang Ruping played a trick.

"Alright! I went to a nearby village to find a local 'soil doctor', maybe there was a way! The hygienist had no choice but to say this.

"Okay! You immediately take two people to look for it, and you have to act quickly! ”

"Yes!" The hygienist asked for two people, and hurried to the surrounding villages to find a "local doctor".

Hou Liang has fallen into a coma. His face turned pale, and Osmanthus was in tears, wiping the blood from his body for him. Yang Ruping looked at his face silently, and the captain who was full of energy and wisdom in the past lay quietly, as if he was asleep. Old man! In the past, how many times you have survived ups and downs, it's okay, you will definitely stand up again and fight with us. Yang Ruping silently prayed and blessed him in his heart.

It wasn't until the sun was about to set that the hygienist and the two warriors returned. They brought back two local "local doctors". The two "local doctors" took Hou Liang's pulse and checked his eyelids respectively. Yang Ruping invited the two "local doctors" aside, looked at them with expectant eyes, and asked, "Two gentlemen!" How's it going? The two "local doctors" from different villages looked at each other, nodded, and one of the older "old local doctors" said, "Alas! Commander of the guerrillas, you should prepare for the future! The wounded, it's not going to work! There's nothing we can do about it. The two gentlemen were very guilty and regretful, and could not help the guerrillas anything, so they had to leave some ointment to heal the wounds, and took their leave. Before leaving, he said that he would not ask the guerrillas for the doctor's money.

"Ryoko! What do you want to say? Osmanthus saw that Hou Liang's mouth began to fan, as if she was about to say something.

"Deputy Captain Yang! The captain is awake! Seeing this, Xiangmei hurriedly called Yang Ruping over. Yang Ruping hurriedly ran over, Hou Liang opened his eyes and struggled to sit up, Osmanthus held him in his arms and choked up: "Liangzi!" If you have something to say, just say it! We're all here. Hou Liang first grabbed Osmanthus's hand and said indebtedly: "Flower! Since you married me, I haven't been able to bring you a good life, but I have made you scared, worried about this family, I'm sorry! Osmanthus cried like a tearful person, tears kept dripping onto Hou Liang's face, she kept using her palm to wipe away the tears that fell on Hou Liang's face, "I'll pay you back in the next life!" After speaking, he held Yang Ruping's hand again and said guiltily: "Old Yang! It was all my responsibility, and without finding out the situation in Dadeng Town, I rashly attacked, causing losses to the guerrillas. Yang Ruping choked up and said, "Captain! It's your fault there! The enemy only came down last night, and who would know if the time is so tight? It's not your individual business, it's the whole army's business, it's a collective business. Hou Liang's words became intermittent, and his voice became weaker and weaker: "I die without regrets!" I died for the liberation of Dragon City, I ...... No...... Regret! But ......" Hou Liang grabbed Yang Ruping's hand tightly, and said with the last bit of strength: "I couldn't kiss ...... Grab ...... with your own hands Catch that internal defeat ...... Defeated......" Hou Liang held Yang Ruping's hand tightly. It loosened all at once and fell to the grass. His eyes were still wide, staring at the man he had been staring at. Though. There is nothing ahead. However, his departed soul is still staring at "him". Yang Ruping knew very well in his heart that if no one had reported to the enemy in this operation, how could so many soldiers of the security regiment suddenly appear in Dadeng Town? There are as many as four or five machine guns alone, which shows that the enemy has premeditated! The "he" that Hou Liang refers to is the person who leaked the information. Captain! You can go with confidence! We'll catch this guy. We'll finish your unfinished business! Yang Ruping stretched out his hand and closed his eyes for Hou Liang.

"Captain! Captain, ......"

Comrades shouted the name of the captain. Heroes are called to be able to return to their side - their captains, their leaders, comrades-in-arms, comrades, brothers. Fight with them forever! They need him, they can't do without him, they miss him...... But the lives that have been lost can never be returned. Stay in the hearts of comrades. It is the majestic figure and lovely face of the captain that he has made for his immortal spirit and indelible meritorious service to the cause of the people's liberation.

"Our captain, we can't just sacrifice in vain, we want revenge, right?" Su Cheng wiped away his tears and shouted.

"That's right! We have to avenge the captain and go back to Dadeng! Lin Yi raised his arms and exhaled.

"Kill back Daden! Kill back to Daden ......" The soldiers were furious. Pick up the weapon in your hand and rush down the mountain. Avenge the captain.

"Comrades! Stop! Listen to me! Yang Ruping saw that the situation was not right, and it was not easy to withdraw from Dadeng, and now the comrades are going to Dadeng to find the enemy desperately, is this worth it? Hurry up and stop it, and do the ideological work of the comrades: "O comrades! I'm more sad than any of you when the captain died, don't I? I've been fighting with the captain for longer than you, right? I have experienced countless battles, and my feelings are naturally deeper than yours, so don't I want to avenge the captain? Do you think? The love of brotherhood and the righteousness of comrades-in-arms should be promised to life. I know that, too! Yang Ruping patted his chest bitterly, "But we can't be rash, ignore the revolutionary cause, and replace reason with impulse." Comrades! Think about it, in this attack on Dadeeng, we fell into an ambush by the enemy, suffered heavy casualties, ran out of food and ammunition, and many wounded died because they could not receive timely treatment! You still have to go to the enemy and fight hard to inflict greater losses on the revolution, right? Even if the captain is alive, will he agree with you to do this? Tell you, he won't! Yang Ruping said this, and pointed down fiercely with his fingers. When the comrades heard this, they all bowed their heads and realized that they could not just act on their wills and inflict greater losses on the revolution. "Comrades! The only option now before us is to quickly put the captain in the ground, and then, withdraw, as soon as possible, restore our combat strength and prepare for the next battle. Comrades! You have to believe that 'blood debts will be paid with blood,' and that the people will one day liquidate those executioners!" ”

After Yang Ruping did his work, the anger of the soldiers finally calmed down. Yang Ruping sent several soldiers to a nearby village to buy a new set of clothes, and when the people found out, they refused to accept the money and spontaneously came to help.

The comrades buried Hou Liang in his hometown of Dadeng, the place where he was born and raised. He was born here, grew up here, came back here to fight, and died here for the liberation of Daden. He is the son of the people of Dadeng, the son of the people of Longcheng, and the son and grandson of the people of the Guizhou-Guizhou border area. The people of Bagui, and even the people of all China, will not forget him!

At the cemetery, the farewell ceremony for the martyrs began. Osmanthus hugged the grave, her face was haggard, her face was full of tears, and she cried miserably: "Liangzi! Ryoko! I'm the one who hurt you! If I had sent the situation in the town out earlier, how would you have died! I'm sorry! Ryoko! I'm sorry......" Osmanthus couldn't cry anymore, she was in deep self-blame, she forced herself to believe that it was her failure to send the information out in time, which caused the sacrifice of Hou Liang and other comrades. She had to blame herself, so that she could feel better. Xiangmei and other female comrades helped the osmanthus to the side, and Yang Ruping led the soldiers in front of Hou Liang's grave, facing the wooden sign engraved with "Hou Liang's Tomb", and stood solemnly. Behind the fighters stood crowds of people from the surrounding villages, who had also come to see off the local guerrilla. Yang Ruping gave a simple eulogy, and then, leading the soldiers and the masses, bowed three times to Hou Liang's tombstone.

"Raise your gun!" Yang Ruping pulled out his pistol, raised it above his head, and ordered. The fighters raised their guns.

"Comrade Hou Liang! Good walk! Yang Ruping shouted loudly.

"Good walk!" The fighters and the masses echoed.

"Bah Woo ......" A row of guns rang out across the earth to see off the martyr Hou Liang......

After the farewell ceremony, the guerrillas returned to their base in Tanliang and prepared for the next battle.

Although Hou Liang sacrificed, there are many legends about the reasons for his sacrifice. Some people believe that Hou Liang was betrayed by his father-in-law Chen Xinlian. There are unreasonable points in this statement: first, under normal circumstances, how can a father-in-law harm his son-in-law; Second, when the People's Liberation Army was about to fight and the reactionary rule of the Kuomintang was about to fall, didn't he consider the consequences of betraying his son-in-law? The third is to endure the loss of her lover by her own daughter, and will she suffer for the rest of her life? Where is this what a father is going to do? Some say he was shot in the back. This does not correspond to the statement of being hit in the abdomen, and besides, is there any enemy in the revolutionary ranks who wants him to die? Even if there is, why does no one know about such a big contradiction? There is also a theory that he was shot by the security corps and spies. That's what this book talks about. No matter what the statement is, what the facts are, but it will never change the fact that Hou Liang was killed by the enemy who hated him to the core, and no matter who killed him, he would eventually be spurned by the people. Hou Liang died heroically for the cause of the people's liberation, and no matter how long it takes, the people will remember him. (To be continued......)
