Section V
The old porter said this, although his tone seemed impassioned, but his expression could not hide some embarrassment. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The porter continued: "I mean bandits are much worse than the PLA. They said that whoever leads the way for the PLA, provides intelligence to the PLA, helps the PLA, and accommodates the PLA will kill his entire family. As he spoke, his eyes flashed with fierce light, and he glanced at the other porters, who were so frightened that their faces were as gray as ashes.
"I said this big brother, what you said is not right, do you mean to say that although our People's Liberation Army is not as bad as bandits, it can be regarded as a bad person?" Li Xiulian heard what this meant, and asked unceremoniously.
"This woman...... Woman...... Comrade, I don't have to say that, I mean that the People's Liberation Army is good...... Good ......" The porter was choked, and he was so anxious that he talked to Li Xiulian about Sichuan sound.
Seeing this, Bai Jiansheng waved his hand at Li Xiulian, but Li Xiulian didn't say anything more.
"Know what to say! The People's Liberation Army has entered the mountains, will the life of the little bandits be long, how many days can they jump? It's over quickly, so, folks! Don't be afraid! There is the People's Liberation Army to support you. Su Cheng comforted.
"Good! I believe you PLA, I say! Some time ago, a group of bandits came to check on the col, turned around, and left without leaving anyone. After that, there were no bandits in the area. ”
"That's weird! Knowing that the People's Liberation Army is coming, you have to leave some people to watch the wind, right? Zheng Tuo asked puzzled.
"You don't know, sir. The bandits in this alley, the leader is Guo Fu, the unit is called the Dragon Fourth Brigade, I heard that the PLA is coming, I have long packed up my things and prepared to escape, and now the soldiers in the alley and those rich people are busy, and there are people who want to flee for their lives everywhere, how can they have the time and energy to come here to deal with the PLA? ”
Everyone also thinks that these porters have a point, the army is pressing, these people who are greedy for life and afraid of death, how can they have any mind to consider dealing with the PLA? Isn't this "a grasshopper shaking a tree"?
After the porter left, Bai Jiansheng and the others did not move forward immediately, because it was very close to the bandits. Bai Jiansheng decided that the troops would stay on the mountain for the time being, send people into the alley to find out the situation, and then get in touch with the second detachment and the main force, the Tiger Regiment, and then make the next step.
The next day, Bai Jiansheng personally led Zheng Tuo, Su Cheng, and Lin Yi, disguised as traders and porters, and infiltrated Nongkou Town to find out the news.
This lane mouth town is located in the eighth lane of the 48th lane, which is a large population gathering area in this area. Yesterday was Wei 1, today is Wei 2, the street is crowded, bustling, so lively. People wear all kinds of national costumes, some carry burdens, some walk, or alone, or in pairs, or in groups, or in groups, in a hurry, strolling in the streets, bargaining with each other, a busy and calm scene.
When it comes to polders, it varies from place to place. or according to custom, or time, or related to local topographical features. In terms of customs, some places combine the traditional festivals of ethnic minorities, such as the Song Wei of the Zhuang Nationality, the Miao Year, the Dong Year, the Panwang Festival of the Yao Nationality, the Zhuzhu Festival, etc., there are many people, many activities, frequent exchanges of all kinds, and a large demand for commodities, which is a good platform for people to exchange ideas, enhance feelings and exchange materials; According to the time, in addition to festivals, some polder days are about odd and double days, or single days, or double days, three days are polders, and five days are cities; In areas where the terrain is related, there are many mountains and far away, and the road is inconvenient, and some are arranged for two consecutive days.
Bai Jiansheng pretended to be the boss and walked in front, while Zheng Tuo, Su Cheng, and Lin Yi followed behind with their burdens. They walked around the street and didn't find any local militants with guns, let alone the soldiers of Guo Fulong's 4th Brigade in uniform, what happened? Did Guo Fu's troops withdraw? Where did the retreat go? Or is there another plan? Where are Guo Lian and Guo Fu? If you can't figure out this series of problems, how can you still do it? Bai Jiansheng decided that he had to find out.
Bai Jiansheng came to a store selling tobacco leaves and shredded tobacco on the side of the road, and looked at a few tobacco leaves on the shelves casually.
"The guest officer is really eye-catching! At a glance, you can recognize the goods, this is the treasure of the store 'Golden Dragon Yellow', look at this color...... "The shopkeeper picked up a leaf in his hand and handed it to Bai Jiansheng, "Oh, guest officer, please see, the leaf surface is golden and unmixed, each leaf rhizome is clear and even, the size is not bad, pinch it, it feels soft but not crisp, smell it, the fragrance is recognizable, the smoke is full of flavor, it is addictive, and I want to take a sip immediately." ”
Bai Jiansheng sniffed it, and sure enough, he praised it repeatedly: "Good smoke!" Good smoke! ”
Seeing that the guests were coming, the shopkeeper hurriedly gave up his seat to the table where he was cutting and rolling tobacco, and personally rolled a cigarette to light it for Bai Jiansheng. Bai Jiansheng took a deep breath, and then slowly spit it out, looking enjoyable.
"I didn't lie to you, did I? This is a high-grade good product, it is said to be superior, because this 'Golden Dragon Yellow' comes from a kind of wild tobacco leaf that grows on the steep cliff wall in our deep mountains, the top of the mountain, the fairy wind blows the rain, the clouds are steamed and the fog is raised, and the aura of the world is sucked and conceived, it is not easy to pick, it is a rare thing, and it is much stronger to suck this spiritual thing than to smoke the rotten leaves, the guest officer said that it is not? After some rhetoric, while observing Bai Jiansheng's expression, he wanted to read the information on Bai Jiansheng's face about the deal.
"Cigarettes are excellent cigarettes, but, brother, I'm in a bigger 'cigarette' business than this one." Bai Jiansheng had a mysterious expression, and the shopkeeper looked at him for a moment and said, "Oh! The younger brother understands that the guest official is not here, but here...... "The shopkeeper first pointed to his own tobacco leaves, and then compared a big circle with his hands on his tobacco leaves, which means to buy and sell "big tobacco".
"This is not an ordinary business! Guest officer, this is ......"
"I don't want you to say it, brother, I made a deal with Guo Fu and Brigade Commander Guo."
As soon as the shopkeeper heard about the business with Guo Fu, it was not easy to come, and he couldn't afford to provoke him, so before Bai Jiansheng finished speaking, he got up to leave, but was grabbed by Bai Jiansheng, "Brother, don't go!" How about you help me finish this big tobacco business, and when Lao Tzu goes back, I will come to you to bring a batch of goods out of the mountain, how about it? The shopkeeper said in a trembling and shocked: "What can the little one help with doing things with Chief Guo?" The guest officer joked. ”
"That's right! Originally, I made an appointment with Brigade Commander Guo to trade with him, but I don't know how to do it, I just can't find him, fuck! Not only can't I find it, but I don't even have a fucking subordinate, what's wrong? Isn't this a trip for nothing for Lao Tzu and his brothers? Do you say that people are angry? Bai Jiansheng looked angry.
"Guest officer, I'll be honest with you, just don't find it."
"Why?"
"You people outside don't know very well that the People's Liberation Army is going into the mountains to suppress bandits, I heard that this time, if you don't eliminate the bandits, you won't stop, think about it? This Chief Guo and his Fourth Dragon Brigade had already been so frightened by the PLA that they peed their pants, and they withdrew from the town at eight o'clock in the morning and ran away. The shopkeeper observed the surrounding movements as he spoke, for fear that Guo Fu's people would hear about it and cause murder.
"That's over, my business can't be done, where did they go? I can go to him, or we'll lose a lot of money. Bai Jiansheng said a few words in a row, showing unwillingness.
"As for where they went? We don't know, but where else can we go? There are mountains everywhere, and I want to go into the mountains. If you can find it, I'm afraid the PLA can find it too. ”
