Tian Maolin was most disgusted by the quarrel between the two, and said, "Okay! You both say a few words. Brother Gong, help me draft a telegram and report the situation here to Senior Commander Yue. Gong Zhilong smiled coldly at Hao Xin, followed Tian Maolin back to the regiment headquarters, and immediately drafted a telegram. Tian Maolin was very satisfied, and not long after the telegram was sent, he received a call back from Wu Yueting, which read: "Preserve your strength and stick to Jiaozi Mountain." ”

At noon the next day, Tian Maolin called Cai Junjie and said: "We can throw anything, but we must not lose the cannon, you take the artillery battalion soldiers to carry the cannon back for me." Cai Junjie's heart trembled and said, "Tuan...... Long, you ...... yesterday I also saw it at night, and the big inclined ditch was full of ...... Viper, why do you still let me ...... Go? Tian Maolin said with a smile: "Battalion Commander, snakes are the most afraid of heat, and after being irradiated by the noon sun, they will burrow into the grass and stone crevices, as long as you come back before the sun sets, there is no risk." ”

Cai Junjie was stunned in his heart, and said: "Commander, I was scared by poisonous snakes, you should send someone else!" Tian Maolin snorted coldly and said: "It is the duty of a soldier to obey orders, do you want to disobey orders?" ”

Cai Junjie was so frightened that he said repeatedly: "Don't dare, don't dare." "Go back and call the soldiers of the artillery battalion, and come to the big sloping ditch with trepidation. He sent people to inspect the vicinity, and as the regiment commander said, let alone a group of snakes, he didn't even see the shadow of snakes, so he led people to the south along the mountain road laid yesterday.

The mountain road winds like a long snake to the south. Cai Junjie led the people to walk for about an hour, and suddenly heard a shout: "Don't move, surrender the gun and don't kill." ”

Cai Junjie followed the prestige, only to see fifty meters away on the two rocks, respectively standing a man and a woman two young people, the male is handsome and straight, the female is slender and beautiful, both are holding two guns, fingers lightly pull the trigger, as if they will shoot at any time, and immediately asked: "Who are you?" ”

The man said loudly: "It doesn't hurt to tell you, my name is Xia Yifan, a member of the Anti-Japanese Self-Defense Brigade." The woman said, "My name is Liu Hui, and I am the younger sister of the three heroines of the rivers and lakes. "Those treacherous and slippery Imperial Allies, as soon as they heard the name of the three heroines of the rivers and lakes, hurriedly turned around and ran back.

Gu Yue hid in the bushes next to her and shouted: "Gu Yue, the second senior sister of the three heroines of the rivers and lakes, is here, if you don't stop for me, my aunt and grandmother will blow up your dog's head." As he spoke, he walked out with his gun in his hand, keeping his eyes off the scope. Her shout really worked, the people who ran stopped, and the people who didn't run froze.

A beardless, obscene-looking Imperial Cooperative Army saw Gu Yue getting closer and closer, and his heart suddenly flashed: "I have bullied women a lot, if I fall into the hands of the three heroines of the rivers and lakes, maybe I can't survive, I can't die." He quietly moved his body, and when he was about to run, his brain shook and he couldn't pounce on the ground.

Gu Yue pulled the bolt of the gun and shouted, "If you don't want to live, run quickly." Those treacherous Imperial Allies didn't know if they heard it wrong, or if they didn't want to live anymore, they heard her words, raised their feet and ran.

Yu Lan, Yuan Tianlong, and Thursday Hai came out and fired bullets one by one at the fleeing enemy. With two guns in their hands, they killed all forty or fifty fleeing men in the blink of an eye.

Cai Junjie felt unbelievable in his heart, and secretly thought to himself, with only the marksmanship of those four people, none of the people who escaped survived, and if he led people to resist, he would undoubtedly die under the opponent's gun, not to mention that there were two people on the other side who were eyeing each other and didn't make a move! So, he shouted: "You can kill but not be humiliated, come to a good one, don't torture us." As he spoke, he dropped the shell gun in his hand. The others did the same as him, and threw away their weapons one after another, and stood upright, ready to be killed.

Liu Hui let out a clear whistle, and Chu Ba led the members of the second squadron to jump out from behind the boulders and in the bushes, and instantly surrounded Cai Junjie and others. Cheng Keyan walked up to Cai Junjie and shouted: "You are a man, but it's a pity that you are willing to degenerate and become a traitor, grandpa will fulfill you and give you a good time." "Pull out the big knife on your back, and raise it to slash.

Xu Zhihong hid in the bushes, not wanting to care about the life or death of Cai Junjie and others, but when he saw Cheng Keyan raising the big knife, he couldn't bear it, and hurriedly shouted: "Slow down." Quickly ran to Cai Junjie, looked at him in shock, and asked, "Battalion Commander, do you still know me?" ”

Cai Junjie raised his hand and touched his neck, and said, "I know." Xu Zhihong asked again: "How is Master Wu?" Cai Junjie said: "I haven't seen him since he surrendered to the Japanese, so I don't know if it's good or not." Xu Zhihong said a few more words to him, and shouted: "Liu Nuxia, is it okay to hand over these people to me for disposal?" Liu Hui responded: "Whatever you do." ”

Xu Zhihong waved his hand to let Cheng Keyan and the others retreat, and said in a low voice: "Battalion Commander, you can't follow Senior Commander Wu to work for the devil." Cai Junjie said: "You know, my brothers and I are at odds with each other. Xu Zhihong said: "Then are you willing to stay and fight devils with us?" Cai Junjie smiled bitterly: "If I don't agree, then there is only a dead end, right?" Xu Zhihong said: "If you don't want to stay, I will let you go." But even if you live today, what will be tomorrow and the day after tomorrow? I left you because I want to give you a path to self-reform, think for yourself! ”

Cai Junjie hesitated for a long time, still undecided, and asked, "Captain Xu, will I be discriminated against if I stay?" Xu Zhihong said with a smile: "As long as you sincerely fight devils and kill traitors, I can guarantee that Captain Chu and the members of the Self-Defense Brigade will treat you as brothers." Cai Junjie nodded and asked his subordinates, "Brothers, do you want to stay?" ”

Everyone exchanged their heads for a while, and they all said: "Stay, fight devils." Cai Junjie said: "Captain Xu, in the future, we will all rely on you to take care of you." ”

Xu Zhihong patted him on the shoulder, and then pulled him in front of Chu Ba, and after the introduction, Cai Junjie snorted: "Captain Chu, belong to ...... We will do our best in the future...... Honest with you to fight devils, such as ...... There is a little bit of disagreement, and heaven and earth do not tolerate it. Chu Ba smiled: "Brother Cai, I can trust Brother Xu, I can trust you, you lead the brothers back to the mountain with me." ”

Back to Panlong Peak, after discussing with Xia Yifan, Liu Hui, and Xu Zhihong, Chu Ba appointed Cai Junjie as the deputy captain of the artillery squadron, and all the people who surrendered acted as artillerymen.

After dinner, Liu Hui and Xia Yifan walked hand in hand to the back mountain of Panlong Peak, found a flat place, and after a set of fists, each found a rock, and meditated cross-legged. Soon, Xia Yifan opened his eyes and saw Liu Hui shrugging his nose and blinking at him, completely naughty as a child, and couldn't help blurting out: "I can't figure it out, you are a little girl, no, how can a little girl who doesn't grow up command a war?" ”
