At the intersection of northern Jiangsu and southern Lunan, on the cross street of a major town, under the dim street lamps, taverns, restaurants, and tea sheds are deformed.

The sound of talking and laughing in a hotel and guessing fists was a lot of noise. From time to time a few soldiers came out of it, helped each other, and walked down the street in a staggering manner.

Li Da, Wang San, the big man, and a few of his soldiers wandered the streets aimlessly.

A Lu girl from Ganyu Dagou Village (at the foot of the Anti-Japanese Mountain) was patting the bamboo plank, generously playing in the middle of the street. Li Da and the others came over curiously. In the sound of bamboo planks, there were more and more soldiers and pedestrians watching.

Song Jiliu, who accompanied him, was strolling the streets as his bodyguard. The girl typed a string of agitated ideas, and opened her lips to sing the joke "Put Down Your Whip".

Xu Daren, a local tyrant who lost his family, wandered and looked around on the street like a wandering spirit. Hearing the tone of "Put Down Your Whip" from afar, he rushed over, squeezed into the crowd, stretched his neck, and looked in. The guy suddenly felt like he had been whipped, and his whole body convulsed.

As early as three years ago, in a big mansion, Xu Daren held a bamboo whip and whipped this Lu girl. The girl broke free from the rope and escaped from the bullpen and through the woods into the cemetery.

An earthen cannon shattered the night sky. Torches and shuttles converged into a rolling torrent and poured into a room in the mansion, Xu Daren saw through the firelight outside the window that it was this little girl surnamed Lu and another young man with two guns who led ** inside. Xu Daren hurriedly pulled up a woman and slipped out from the side like a mouse......

Xu Daren stood in the wilderness, looking at the burning mansion in the distance, beating his chest, and stumbling into the boundless night......

At present, Xu Daren covered his chest, calmed down, and hurriedly squeezed out of the crowd. Lifting the hem of his robe, he trotted away. Xu Daren stumbled and almost panted to the wine banquet of Dong Zhu'an, the exiled county magistrate.

"County seat, county seat," Xu Daren gasped, "It's amazing, no...... Here's the ...... Here it comes***! ”

"Pop" The wine cup in Dong Zhuan's hand fell to the ground and shattered, "You...... How did you know that?"

"I saw it with my own eyes!" Xu Daren excitedly, "County seat, I also recognize her in the gray!" She is the yellow-haired girl who copied my house three years ago! ”

"In ......" Dong Zhuan wiped the cold sweat on his forehead: "She...... Where is she? ”

Dong Zhu'an pointed outward and asked in disbelief, "Just on this cross street?" ”

Crossroads. After the little girl finished singing, she suddenly threw a handful of red and green leaflets into the crowd of onlookers. Leaflets falling one after another: "Letter to the People of the Whole Country", "Letter to the Soldiers of the 57th Army", ......

The crowd was in turmoil. Ji Liu's eyes looked at the little girl Lu who left the crowd with concern. She quickly disappeared into the shadows under the streetlights.

Why did Song Jiliu become this Lu girl's bodyguard? It turned out that this Lu girl was Wang Mai, the little girl who fell into the hands of traffickers with Jiliu many years ago.

Later, because Wang Mai escaped from the fire pit and found Ji, under Jiliu's arrangement, he also participated in the anti-Japanese team.

At this time, Xu Daren led a small team of security guards to hurry over. Jiliu hurriedly shouted to the place where the girl was hidden: "The security team is here, run!" ”

Xu Daren led the security team to the street, except for some people who were still picking up leaflets, there was no shadow of the girl.

In the night at the end of the alley, the little girl with long braids quietly flashed out, looked left and right, and was about to walk away. Suddenly, a strong hand grabbed her. She was taken aback, and coldly took out two twenty rings from her body......

"Little girl, don't mess around...... it was Li Xin, deputy secretary of the Special Committee of the 111th Division, who caught such a little girl. He took the girl's hand and pulled her into the darkness of the alley.

The girl glared at him, "What are you going to do?" ”

Li Xin smiled kindly and said in a low voice, "I want to help you!" ”

The little girl asked in surprise, "Boss, who are you?" ”

Li Xin smiled: "I like your singing "Put Down Your Whip" very much, now you are being arrested everywhere here, you can't run around." ”

The little girl's eyes flashed with gratitude, and she said very happily, "Thank you......"

Li Xin smiled and said lightly: "Put on your braids and follow me!" The little girl curled her braids knowingly and followed Li Xin into the darkness......

The three battalions were stationed at night. The leaflet of "Letter to the Soldiers of the 57th Army" was passed and read among the soldiers. Li Da shook the flyer in his hand and said excitedly: "The leaflet is true, only by fighting devils can there be a way out......

"Hmph, anti-eight-way turf? This is to fight a civil war again, and it will cost us our lives! The big man said angrily, "You go to the new cemetery and have a look, the mass grave is almost too crowded!" ”

"Not really!" Wang San sighed, "I heard that the most I heard was carried out more than thirty times a day, and one platoon died a day!" ”

"Mom's!" A tall soldier punched the ground bunk, and a thick tendon erupted on his neck, "Instead of waiting for death here, it's better to fight with the little devil!" ”

"Shh......hh......h Whisper ......"

"Afraid of what?" The big man platoon leader jumped up, "The head has fallen off the bowl and the big scar!" Being a soldier is not afraid of death, and being afraid of death is not a soldier! He stopped suddenly. Everyone looked out according to his shocked gaze, and it turned out that the battalion commander Wang Yun accompanied the instructor Li Xin to the door at some point.

The soldiers were apprehensive: "Battalion commander...... Instructor Li ......"

"Hehe...... "hey," the little soldier said worriedly, "the brethren are idle, and they are blind together...... ......"

"Good!" Wang Yun stepped into the door and smiled at everyone and said, "Instructor Li is fine, he just wants to talk to the brothers!" After speaking, he dragged Li Xin and sat down in the middle of the bunk.

", why are you silent?" Li Xin glanced at a few soldiers with a smile.

I saw that the native soldiers looked at each other and were at a loss.

Li Xin said with a smile: "I understand the hearts of the brothers, I am also a northerner, and I also have parents and brothers and sisters at home, seeing that my hometown is suffering from the atrocities of the Japanese devils, I also want to fight Japan and protect ......my hometown."

The soldiers looked at each other with a smile of delight, and they couldn't help but move to their side. The big platoon leader went straight to the ground with a single knife: "Instructor Li, you are well-informed, according to you, what should we do?" ”

Li Xin smiled meaningfully: "I, like everyone else, don't want to work against the Eighth Route Army and be buried in another country!" ”

"Good!" Li Da couldn't help but shout, "But who knows what those big officials think?"

The big platoon commander stood up: "Humph! They? Maybe you want to be a traitor! ”

Wang Yun: "The officials are not all the same, for example, Master Chang and Brigade Commander Wan are not that kind of people. Besides, let's think about it, is there more of us in the 57th Army, or are there more soldiers? ”

The soldiers were gossiping: "This needs to be said! ”

"Of course there are many soldiers!" The little soldier timidly, "But as the saying goes, it's hard to twist your arms over your thighs!" ”

Li Xin: "But, you have one arm, one arm to mine, and one arm to him, can't you twist your thigh?" As he spoke, he grabbed the arms of Li Da, Wang San, and the little soldier together, then clenched and shook them vigorously, and shook them again.

"Yes!" Commander Li suddenly realized, "Then we will mobilize the soldiers to write a bloody letter asking for war and petition Miao Chengliu and Lao Jiang!" ”

The soldiers said in unison: "Good! ”

- Clenched fists and excited faces of soldiers appeared in the garrison, in the playgrounds, on the streets, and on the city walls. Blood dripped on the white paper, and the big platoon commander bit his middle finger and wrote: "I still want to resist the Japanese......"

One by one, the soldiers scrambled to sign their names on the blood book......
