On the morning of September 17, when the Japanese army was frantically attacking the first line of Guanzhuang, Jingzhi, Jinggou and Chaigou, dozens of men carrying thin baskets at the north gate of Weicheng came to the gate of Wanghaimen.

As soon as the puppet soldiers standing guard saw it, they knew that it was a man from the countryside who had come into the city to sell poles and burn them, so they immediately put their guns across and began to investigate.

The bar head fire is also called the village fire, which is the special noodle dish in the countryside around Weicheng. The method is very simple, with a king-size coarse porcelain basin and a hard dough weighing forty or fifty catties at a time, a strong man on a panel more than two meters long with an arm-thick, length and the board of the jujube stick (commonly known as "bar") with both hands to continue to roll back and forth, until the hard dough becomes a uniform texture of the dough. Then knead the uniform and thick dough into long strips, pull it by hand or cut out a small dough with a knife, the weight must reach half a catty, and weigh it accurately with a market scale, without ambiguity. The small dough is made into a thick circle with a thin and convex center and is baked in a fire oven, and the bars that emit a burst of wheat fragrance are baked one after another.

After being made by fire, there is no rush to sell, and it is stored in batches at the end of autumn, half a month for twenty days or even a month or two, it will become drier and harder, but the taste of the more you bite into the mouth, the more fragrant it is, is unchanged.

This kind of dough is burned with a pole to press the dough and the hard dough, which is called the head of the pole fire.

Before the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the economic development of the Weicheng area was carried out, and the farmers themselves used wheat to grind flour, bran to feed livestock, and flour to be burned and sold. The price is low, and the more you eat, the more delicious it is, and many businesses in the city, as well as ordinary citizen families, are willing to store them in batches for winter. As soon as it came and went, the burning of the pole head became a special food for Weicheng people, and it was also a risk-free way for rural farmers to make money.

Weicheng people also pay attention to eating the head of the bar, in addition to the normal way of eating, but also invented the "stewed bar head", and the mutton bubble in the city of Xi'an in the northwest is similar, that is, the head of the bar is burned into small pieces, or cut into small pieces with a kitchen knife, cut the pork belly into slices, peanut oil into the pot to heat, green onion, ginger, star anise in the pot, put in the cut pork slices and fried. Then put in an appropriate amount of soy sauce and boil until boiling, then add an appropriate amount of water and salt, and then put the broken or cut bar head into the pot to boil, boil for another five or six minutes with a simmer, put an appropriate amount of chopped coriander, pour sesame oil after turning off the fire, and the fragrant "stewed bar head" will be out of the pot.

This is all the past before the Anti-Japanese War, and it can only exist in the sighs of Weicheng people. Now it is the period when the Japanese puppet occupies Weicheng, and what else is said about the burning of the pole, it would be good to fill the stomach! Therefore, when the puppet army sentries saw that someone had entered the city to sell poles and burn their heads, their eyes turned green and they began to investigate.

The puppet army sentry first stretched out his hand and took the two poles from the first man's basket, ran to the devil who was standing guard with him, nodded and said, "Taijun, the pole is burning, and Weicheng is famous." Yours, Missies' want? ”

The little devil couldn't understand the words of the puppet army, but he knew that it meant for him to eat, and he held a rifle and stared at the fire in the hands of the puppet army vigilantly.

The puppet army sentry hurriedly put the gun on his shoulder, broke off a piece of fire with his hand, put it in his mouth, and bit it open, saying that it was delicious while eating.

The devil no longer doubted it, took another pole in the hand of the puppet army and burned it, bit it into his mouth, almost broke his teeth, and was about to get angry, when the smell of noodles came out of his mouth, he was no longer angry, and slowly chewed it with his head down.

The puppet army sentries ate the poles in their mouths and began to toss the men's baskets one by one.

The leading man said dissatisfiedly: "I have eaten and eaten, what are you afraid of?" It's all food, and you can't flip it with your hands! ”

The puppet army sentry turned his eyes horizontally, opened his mouth and scolded: "You donkey goods, Lao Tzu's duty is to check, how can you do it if you don't turn it over?" What if you're dirt eight? Last year, a country man who sold fire killed the imperial army at the south gate and snatched a big gun. For this matter, the prefectural governor was dismissed. Don't you know the day of the donkey? ”

The man's scolded forehead was bruised, and his eyes became as sharp as a blade.

The puppet army sentry was stunned for a moment, stuffed half of the pole into his pocket, took off the rifle on his shoulder, and looked at the man's butt with a butt, opened his mouth and scolded: "I'm damn on the second (day), I'm not convinced, right?" Lao Tzu tells you that in these years, the world is big without the kindness of the imperial army, and the father and mother do not have the guns of the imperial army. Without the imperial army to engage in the common prosperity of Greater East Asia, can you kid enter Weicheng to sell fire? ”

After scolding, the puppet army sentry picked up his gun again, stretched out his hands and began to touch the man's body, and began to search his body.

After this search, the puppet army sentry was stunned, and he clearly felt a hard thing on the man's waist.

The puppet army sentry not only did not shout, did not take the gun arrogantly, but made a 180-degree turn in his attitude, lowered his head and asked in a low voice: "How many brothers are here, and are there any others?" ”

The man simply ignored him. The puppet army sentry was bored, waved his hand and shouted: "Hurry up, hurry up!" ”

The men who sold the poles and burned them carried the baskets again and entered the city.

Before all the people entered the city gate, the captain of the class led by the devil came out, and when he saw so many people coming in, he shouted loudly: "What are you doing? ”

The puppet army sentry pointed at the man who was on the head and said loudly: "Report to Taijun, he is my brother-in-law, and he goes to the city to do business work!" ”

The devil Wu Chang didn't say much, waved his hand, and shouted: "Hurry up and open the way!"

The men who sold the poles and burned them all passed through the Wanghai Gate and entered the city of Weicheng.

This puppet army sentry is just a soldier of the Weicheng Garrison Brigade, not an underground member of the Eighth Route Army, and he didn't expect that it was the Eighth Route Army that entered the city, thinking that the bandits on the ground around him had entered the city with knives to commit crimes.

Since ancient times, the soldiers and bandits have been a family, and what the garrison is best at is black and black. The puppet army sentries also thought that they would report to the captain after they were laid off, and closely monitor the movements of this group of men, as long as they did not make a move against the imperial army, they could do anything. When they are done robbing, they will clean them up again, and they will lose their money and make meritorious contributions, how good!

The dozens of men who entered the city who sold poles and burned their heads were naturally the Eighth Route Army. The leader was Sun Lexun, the instructor of the Weicheng County Brigade Squadron, and behind him was a special operations squad led by Zhao Zhiyu, the captain of the Third Special Operations Squadron of the Eighth Route Army.

This Sun Lexun is from near Weicheng, only 23 years old, with a bit of a stubborn temper, he almost clashed with the puppet army sentry at the gate of Wanghaimen just now, and he was also hit with a rifle butt on his buttocks. Zhao Zhiyu and the others were different, they all looked introverted, did not say a word, followed behind Sun Lexun with a basket on their backs, walked through the streets and alleys in Weicheng City, and went directly to the house of Ding Shuyan, director of Li Wenli Ludong and Pingjian's ** office in Weicheng.

Ding Shuyan is the richest man in Weicheng, and his home is the famous Shihu Garden in Weicheng. After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Ding Shuyan did not waving a white flag to meet the Japanese invaders like those big businessmen and big landowners in Weicheng Maintenance Association, but followed Li Wenli to the southwest mountainous area of Anqiu to fight guerrillas. When the Li Wenli Department was in the most difficult situation, the military rations could not be helped, so it was a note written by Ding Shuyan who sent people to the tenants of the Ding family, asking them to hand over all the food to the Li Wenli Department. At that time, Ding Shuyan was definitely a hero who abandoned his family and business in the future. It's a pity that Li Wenli was captured under the high pressure of the Japanese army, surrendered to the Japanese invaders, and even took Ding Shuyan to follow him as a traitor. It's just that this Ding Shuyan is different from Li Wenli and others, after all, he is a recaptured Weicheng and a prestigious figure in the local area, and he refuses to let his hands get bloody, and there is no great evil.

The reason why Zhao Zhiyu came to Ding Shuyan was because he was ordered by Liu Yimin to mobilize Ding Shuyan anyway, use his influence to further disintegrate the puppet army on the ground in Shandong, and combat the Japanese army's criminal attempt to use China to contain China.

There was a puppet army sentry standing at the door of Ding Shuyan's house.

Sun Lexun swaggered forward and said to the puppet army sentry: "Boss, a few days ago, Director Ding passed by our village and ate our pole head burned, saying that it has not been such a good fire for a long time. Let's do a lot of it, and send it to Shihu Garden after it's done, and he will buy as much as he wants. Trouble the boss to report it and see if Director Ding wants it. If he wants, we will sell it to him. If he doesn't want it, we'll carry it to Dongguan City and sell it. ”

The sentry at the door didn't know about it, but who wouldn't want to eat it with a pole on fire?

The sentry asks Sun Lexun where they are?

Sun Lexun replied that it was from Liufanqiao.

Liufan Bridge is eighteen miles away from Weicheng, and the pole head fire made is the most famous.

The sentry looked at the figures of the men behind Sun Lexun, and said in his mouth: "Yes, the figures are good." To make a pole head burn, you need a young and strong man! You wait, I'll go in and report! ”

Ding Shuyan was worried in the house at this time, because Li Wenli had asked him to raise military salaries again.

Uncle Ding said that this person is strictly a person who attaches great importance to friendship. When Li Wenli was the magistrate of Wei County, he became friends with him. As a result, Li Wenli wanted to resist Japan, so he led his family to follow Li Wenli to resist the Japanese without hesitation. Li Wenli surrendered as a traitor, and he also surrendered with Li Wenli. This is also something that can't be helped, although he is the richest man in Weicheng, he has no soldiers and no soldiers, so he can only rely on Li Wenli.

The county magistrate is different from before the war, although Ding Shuyan has 20,000 mu of fertile land, but because he defected to the enemy with Li Wenli, when the troops of the Qinghe Military Region and the Luzhong Military Region of the Eighth Route Army were active in Weicheng, their land was confiscated as traitor land and distributed to landless tenants. He went to these tenants to ask for rent, but those tenants didn't dare to say no, but secretly always thought about delaying, and from time to time said that the grain was captured by the Eighth Route Army halfway through. Ding Shuyan himself didn't want to ruin Ding Jiale's reputation for being kind and charitable, so the grain became more and more unharvestable.
