Sister-in-law Nakaguchi sat on the ridge of the field, looking at the boundless field, and pondered painfully. Xiao Xiaoqin sat next to her, and she was silent. Seeing that it was already late, Sun Lianguo hurriedly walked over, stood beside him, anxiously didn't know what to do, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid I can't find it, let's go!" ”

"No!" Sister-in-law stood up as she spoke, brushed back her short hair covering her eyes, and walked forward quickly. She kept her mouth closed, her eyebrows raised, her eyes wide open, searching around.

As he walked, he found a piece of wheat that had been crushed by someone, like a trace of a man crawling. They searched the trail and found a black slimy object lying on the ground. Hurriedly ran over to take a look, and sure enough, it was a person, covered in blood. Sister-in-law Zhongkou hurriedly picked up his head and saw that it was Captain Song, his hair and beard were covered with blood, and his heart was beating when he touched it, and Zhongkou hurriedly leaned into his ear and whispered: "Brother Song!" Brother Song! ”

I only heard Song Jiliu say in a barely audible voice in a coma: "Water, water, fellow, water!" ”

"Thank goodness he's still alive!" Sister-in-law Nakaguchi said.

People gathered around him and bandaged his wounds. The crescent moon fell below the horizon, and immediately the earth became dark. In the dark wilderness, sister-in-law Zhongkou and his party carried Song Jiliu and walked towards the dark woods.

It's almost noon. Only then did the enemy who camped in Sangou leave, and the crowd continued to walk back from the field.

I saw that on the streets, in the alleys, and in the courtyards of every house, chicken feathers, pig's feet, and bones were littered, and there was feces and urine everywhere, and even was pulled on the pots, water tanks, and kangs. The furniture was a smashing mess. Several burned houses are still emitting wisps of smoke.

The people cursed, picked up, and hurried to find the hidden food and rush to make some food to eat, so that they could run when the enemy came again. The sister-in-law saw that people had entered the village in the field, so they went home with Aunt Qi.

Zhongkou's sister-in-law: "Comrade Sun Lianguo, you put up a sentry outside the village, and I will hurry home to cook and eat with my aunt." I haven't eaten for more than a day, and I'm hungry. ”

Sister-in-law Zhongkou was hurriedly cooking on the fire, and Sun Lianguo came. He held the cake and said, "There are a few people running from the big river pile in the south of the village, and I think they are the soldiers who have fallen behind in our army. ”

"Do they have guns?" Sister-in-law Nakaguchi went out of the house to ask.

"No, some people don't even have shoes and socks."

Sister-in-law Nakaguchi put down the burning stick, put the pistol on the bullet, stood up and said, "Let's go, let's go and have a look." ”

Zheng Xiaomei and Xiao Xiaoqin also stood up and followed. Aunt Qi hurriedly stopped and said, "Just ask Lao Sun to bring some pancakes for them to eat, tell them to go, who knows who it is." ”

Sister-in-law said: "Auntie, let's be careful." In case it's all comrades, we don't care, what should we do with them? ”

Sister-in-law Zhongkou said that she and Sun Lianguo left, and Zheng Xiaomei and the others also went out. It didn't take long to bring in a few young men dressed in tatters. These people were also hungry and unpresentable, all with dark faces and wide eyes. As soon as I entered the door, I saw that the eldest lady was taking the fried fried out of the kraft paper, and there was kraft paper on it. Sister-in-law Nakaguchi hurriedly removed the paper of the pancakes, handed them to them and said, "Eat, comrades, eat quickly!" ”

"Let's eat together, don't just eat us." A few people said.

"You're welcome!" Sister-in-law Zhongkou hurriedly waved her hand and said, "I've eaten it." ”

Zheng Xiaomei and Xiao Xiaoqin saw that Zhongkou's sister-in-law didn't eat and didn't eat either. Peng Dacun and Xiangxiao Station are embarrassed to eat again. The newcomers, how could they be polite, and one of them grabbed a pancake and devoured it.

Sister-in-law Zhongkou took advantage of this time to call Sun Lianguo, Peng Dacun, and Xiang Xiaozhan aside, and discussed with them how to go out to understand the situation and inquire about the whereabouts of the other cadres of the martial arts team. After talking for a while, everyone took a sweet potato pancake and left.

At this moment, Xueqin was sitting at the gate, holding her chin and looking at the group of people eating pancakes, looking at the characteristics of each person. Although it was only after a brief conversation, she remembered the names of several people. The big black round-faced young man squatting under the locust tree was called Ma Weining. There are two people sitting at the door of the east wing, both of them are yellow and thin, they are two soldiers of the county brigade, the square face is called Gao Dahe, and the long face is called Xiang Erhei.

The two seemed to have lived in this village, and the two discussed something in a whisper, showing the spirit of wanting to leave here quickly, and Xiaoxiao Qin heard one of them intermittently say:

“…… This area is dangerous, go home and hide first. Sister-in-law Nakaguchi, a Japanese woman, what do you know, who follows her? ......" Xiao Xiaoqin couldn't look at it, couldn't help but snort, and gave Zheng Xiaomei who was sitting next to her. Zheng Xiaomei saw that she was too explicit, so she slapped her lightly.

Sister-in-law Nakaguchi called Xiang Erhei to the front of the shadow wall and whispered. The two of them asked each other questions as if they were talking about acquaintances who had been together in the past, and they looked up for a moment to think about it. At this time, there was a sound of footsteps, and people stood up in surprise, listening to the voice of the eldest lady outside the shadow wall: "It's my own person who is back, it's okay." ”

When everyone heard this, they all looked out, and they heard two people flashing in from outside the shadow wall as they spoke.

A slightly shorter man with unkempt hair, bare feet, torn trouser legs, a layer of black mud on his face, and two rows of white teeth, cried out, "Comrades! "Run to the side of the steps and put down the torn jacket that I was carrying.

Sun Lianguo took a closer look, and it turned out to be Qi Wanhong. The other slender man was wearing a fat gown, with his arms open, his pants were torn in half and became shorts, and his face was black and thin, and he pursed his mouth, as if he was struggling to put a cloth bag on the ground, and he only heard the sound of Goodong, and he did not know what was inside. Then he stood up and shouted: "Sister-in-law, Captain, Little Sister, Xiaoxiaoqin, ho, even the country and Omura are here!" ”

Zhongkou's sister-in-law, they saw that they were Comrade Fang Xiao, the traffic officer of the old sixth regiment.

"Oh, I didn't think we could meet again!"

"What about the captain and the instructor?"

"Captain Song was seriously injured and brought back to hide in the 'grave', and the whereabouts of the instructor are unknown."

Qi Wanhong hummed in surprise when she heard this. Sister-in-law Nakaguchi looked at Wan Hong and asked in a worried whisper, "When the battle started, wasn't the instructor still with a small team?" ”

Qi Wanhong said: "Yes, as soon as the battle started, we all rushed up and died." ”

Xiao Xiaoqin came over and said, "Two big brothers, hurry up and eat something before talking!" ”

"Thanks, we both ate. Just now from Xiaoding Village, he ate a big meal of the eggs that the chief of the big guard, Sun Da, was preparing to fight the enemy, so that Sun Da was wearing a silk dress and pointed to the ground to stop it, and asked Qi Wanhong to splash a bucket of water on him, and the big man rolled on the ground and made a pig tired. Comrade Wang said while making a funny comparison.

"What's in your bag?" "It's a delicious meal in Japan!" Comrade Wang said and took out a Japanese melon-shaped grenade, and said in a flash: "Brother Wan Hong still has good things." ”

Everyone gathered around to take a look, only to see Qi Wanhong take out a brand-new blue-crystal glowing twenty-shot barge gun from the rolled torn jacket. People are vying for you to touch me and see, and they are all envious. Zheng Xiaomei hurriedly asked, "How did you get it?" ”

Qi Wanhong said seriously: "Stole it!" ”

The people laughed and asked, "The enemy is so careless that you have a chance to steal?" ”

Qi Wanhong jumped onto the kang and said, "Why can't you steal it?" We all have the 'Good Citizen Certificate', and this one. He said that he had spoken Japanese for twenty years in a pretended manner, learned a few cat meows, and played a foreign appearance.

People couldn't help but laugh. Qi Wanhong continued: "That day, I just rushed out of the encirclement, and the enemy surrounded me, so I quickly buried my gun and went to the nearby pigsty to load the pigs to feed. Later, the devil caught me, and a devil squad leader looked at me like this, treated me as a good coolie, and told me to carry things for him. ”

"Good fellows! And then? Sun Lianguo asked.

"Later, I showed all my skills as a bastard, and I became familiar with the devil squad leader in one fell swoop. After walking with the enemy for more than a day, the two sweeping teams met up in the town of Dasha River. Speaking of this, Qi Wanhong waved his hand smartly.

Xiao Xiaoqin just wanted to ask: "What happened to you later?" "I heard someone running from the winter land.

When everyone saw that it was Sun Lianguo, a member of the militia, he broke in and hurriedly plugged in the door and said, "Quickly drill into the black house, we can't run out!" The devil quietly surrounded the village and chased me. ”

Xiang Erhei, Gao Er, and a few of them all followed Xiao Xiaoqin into the West Wing Mill and hidden. Sister-in-law Zhongkou, Qi Wanhong, Comrade Wang, and Zheng Xiaomei picked up the tables and stools in the courtyard, and hurried into the dark room. There was only elementary school celery left outside, and then I heard the sound of Dangdang slamming the door.

Sister-in-law Zhongkou shouted quietly inside: "Little sister Xueqin, come in!" ”

Qi Xueqin said: "No, I won't be able to bury it at the entrance if I go in." The enemy is coming, call for the adobe to be built inside! She said that she hurriedly buried the hole, opened the small back window of the mill, and jumped into the adjacent yard. I only heard the sound of the light lang, and the door was slammed open. There was a burst of chaotic footsteps and scolding, and the Japanese puppet army rushed into the courtyard, turned over in the houses and grinding sheds, and ran to other courtyards. The courtyard immediately fell silent.

Sister-in-law Nakaguchi secretly pinched a handful of sweat for the elementary school celery, and listened to the movements of the neighboring yard.

Zheng Xiaomei listened to the small hole on the side of the wall, and said worriedly: "There is no movement, I wonder if Xiaoxiao Qin will ask the enemy to catch it?" ”

Everyone listened nervously, but all they could hear was a chaotic sound.
