The chief of the meeting and his personal guards, with short guns in their hands, calmly strode towards the ditch in the southeast corner of the bamboo forest.

Qiu Yemin, secretary of the Ganyu County Party Committee, walked ahead of them. Behind them, the howls of the enemy's wolves and ghosts rang out in a mess, accompanied by bursts of gunfire.

"Brethren! Come on! Rush! There is a reward for catching the guerrillas of the Eighth Route Army! ”

"Come on! Rush! Catch it alive! ”

These howls of the enemy seem to be about to burst their throats. However, Luo Ronghuan, who has been accustomed to the battlefield for a long time, seems to have not heard it at all. While walking side by side with Qiu Ye, he asked in a somewhat witty tone, "Why are you late?" Is it entangled with the traitor team again? ”

"Huh?" Qiu Yemin said in surprise, "You've only been back for a few days, do you even know about this?" ”

"Yes!" Luo Ronghuan said in a long voice, and then accelerated the pace and continued, "Investigation and research!" ”

"As soon as I went out for a short time today, I ran into dog traitors, and it took a lot of effort to get rid of them!"

Fu Zhuting interjected and asked Yemin: "Nowadays, why are the enemies in this area so crazy?" Have you heard of why? ”

"According to the intelligence, Fujimoto, the leader of the devils in the county, gave Squadron Leader Amuguchi Luochuan an order to quickly clear the remnants of the Eight Roads in this area and turn this area into a 'model security area'......"

"Ahh Luo Ronghuan interjected, "What else has the enemy been doing recently?" ”

"A few days ago, in the southwest of mussels, Fujimoto, didn't they go to support Dong Yupei? Because of that battle, and because of that action, both Yoshiko and Fujimoto were criticized by their superiors. Since then, both dog mongrels have been a little frustrated, always looking for an opportunity to show their hands, so that this opportunity can turn over! Qiu Yemin said as he walked, "Some outlaws in the puppet army are also a little carried away for the 'bounty' of 50,000 yuan, and the traitor Huang Nitou is also working hard......"

They were walking and talking, talking and walking, and suddenly, in the forest behind them, a continuous explosion of grenades sounded. In this earth-shattering explosion, there was also the screams of the puppet soldiers shouting for their fathers and mothers, and ghosts crying for wolves.

Luo Ronghuan leaned over to the edge of the ditch, stilted his feet to look at the scene behind him, and returned to Qiu Yemin's side, and then asked, "Which two hands do Fujimoto and Fangzi want to show off?" ”

"I heard that they are bent on intensifying intelligence searches and increasing the pace of co-opting the remnants of the Kuomintang." Qiu Yemin glanced at Song Jiliu and said, "They still have to do everything possible to catch Captain Song, so that they can go to his boss to report the merits......"

As they talked, the gunfire behind them grew farther and farther away. Luo Ronghuan stopped his steps. He said to the comrades at the meeting: "Let's rest here!" ”

"Why?" Qiu Yemin asked.

"Wait for the comrades in the future!"

"Good!"

Gunsmoke filled the night sky. Stray bullets screamed overhead. Luo Ronghuan, Sun Guang, Chen Shiyu, Fu Zhuting, Zeng Guohua, Sun Jixian, Jiang Hua, Gu Mu, Song Jiliu and more than a dozen people gathered on a slope in the traffic ditch. Some tigers squatted, some sat flat, and formed a heap.

Luo Ronghuan squatted on the high slope of the north side, took out the cigarette in his pocket, and fiddled with it in his hand while saying, "The ones we just talked about are all 'episodes' before the official opening!" Now, it's time for us to 'get back to business'-" Then, his tone changed, and he solemnly announced word by word: "Our enlarged meeting of the party committee will officially start now!" ”

"Although our meeting is not big, it is still full of grandeur!" Chen Shiyu said, "Listen! How loud this salute sounded! ”

The people laughed silently.

Subsequently, Luo Ronghuan first talked about the international situation, and then said: "In October last year, we wrote an article for Yan'an's "Liberation Daily". The editorial made it clear to us that the Second World War had now reached a turning point, and said: Next year will not be an auspicious year for Japanese fascists. The 'next year' that the chairman refers to in the editorial is this year. ”

"That's what happened." Chen Shiyu said.

As Luo Ronghuan spoke, he took out a cigarette. He lit a cigarette, took a puff, and continued: "Therefore, the Party Central Committee instructs us to keep in mind this wise decision of the first and to persist in the struggle with confidence; It is necessary to do everything possible to overcome all difficulties and quickly seize control of the 'coastal area.' As you know, our region is strategically important......"

When Luo Ronghuan said this, he just went to smoke and stopped talking. Qiu Yemin seized this space and interjected: "According to the insider, Fujimoto also often says that this area is a strategic location, and it is necessary to compete with us for ...... at all costs."

Luo Ronghuan nodded, and then Secretary Qiu's words opened again, conveying the instructions of the central government word by word. At the end of his speech, he changed his tone and said:

"The specific requirements of the central authorities for our Shandong Military Region and the 115th Division are: The first step is to defeat the enemy's arrogance and arrogance through several battles and bring out our prestige, so as to enhance the anti-Japanese sentiment of the masses and strengthen the confidence of the masses in the victory of resistance against Japan; The second step is to fully mobilize the masses of the people, further organize them, arm them, strengthen our ranks, seize the initiative, and control the situation well, and the third step is ......"

Luo Ronghuan was continuing to speak, and the guard company messenger ran up from behind.

Sun Jixian preemptively asked, "How is it?" What's new? ”

The correspondent didn't bother to answer Sun Jixian, he hurriedly squatted in front of Luo Ronghuan and said, "Chief, are we resisting?" Or retreat? ”

Only then did Luo Ronghuan notice that the gunshots behind him were getting closer and closer. Patting the communicator's round shoulder, he said with a smile in a funny tone: "You guys, you are greedy for war, and you are withdrawing too slowly!" Tie us up here, waiting weirdly anxious! ”

The correspondent smiled knowingly, and ran back the way he came. Luo Ronghuan snuffed out the cigarette butt, stood up and glanced at everyone, and said, "Go wow!" We'll walk away again. ”

People walked away. Luo Ronghuan walked as he picked up the words of the previous man and said: "The central government requires us to take the third step to take this area into our hands and destroy the enemy directly and indirectly from all sides......

Luo Ronghuan used the teachings of the first class and the instructions of the central government to ignite the anti-Japanese anger in people's hearts. When he finished conveying the instructions of the central authorities, the people all said in unison: "Resolutely carry out the instructions of the central authorities!" ”

The acute Song Jiliu is already full of spring breeze. He shook Luo Ronghuan's arm and urged anxiously: "Chief, tell me quickly, what should we do first?" ”

Luo Ronghuan looked at Jiliu's seemingly innocent face, as if he was coquettish, and said with a smile; "I don't know much about the situation, what to do, I have to discuss with everyone!"

Acting teacher Chen Guang's gaze met Luo Ronghuan's gaze: "Tell me to say, let's take Ganyu City first!" ”

Luo Ronghuan asked in an enlightening tone: "Why?" ”

Chen Guang wiped the pistol in his right hand with his left hand, and said slowly: "There is that wolf lamb stationed there, like a fox, cunning and insidious!" He plays the sign of 'Xu Fu's descendants' all day long, confusing the masses everywhere! Kill him as soon as possible, and there will be only one bane! ……”

After Chen Guang finished speaking one by one, Luo Ronghuan continued in a contemptuous tone: "Yes! Fujimoto is indeed as cunning as a fox. However, no matter how cunning the fox is, its life is always in the hands of the hunter! ”

Chen Guang smiled: "I can see what you mean——"

Qiu Yemin also became excited: "It's so decided?" ”

Luo Ronghuan waved his left hand, which was not holding a gun, shook his head and said, "No! ”

"Why?"

"These days, I personally led people to investigate, and from the feedback of the masses, although the city is the county seat, it is not the most influential one among the various devil strongholds......

When he said this, he looked around at the comrades present, as if they were specifically seeking opposing eyes.

Hearing this, Chen Guang nodded in agreement.

When the others heard this, they smiled approvingly.

"However, this is not always the case...... "Xiang Xiaodun, who was invited to attend the meeting, said disapprovingly. What are you doing so carefully? Tell me to say, as long as it is an enemy, you should kill it! Kill whichever one is the first, anyway, kill one less one! ”

Luo Ronghuan expressed his appreciation for this Xiang Xiaodun for daring to speak out frankly. He patted Xiang Xiaodun on the shoulder affectionately, and said with an enlightening smile: "Young man, you can't say that!" ”

Xiang Xiaodun was firm and upright: "Why can't you say that?" Is there anything else the enemy shouldn't kill? ”

Luo Ronghuan still smiled and patiently explained: "We killed the evil wolf, not because it was a beast, but because it was eating people, didn't it?" We destroy the enemy, and we don't want to destroy them all from the ** without a single left. Let's just talk about the Japanese army, before they lay down their arms, which one is not the enemy? It's all going to have to be counted, right? ”

"Of course!"

"So, can we slaughter all the Japanese troops one by one? Can't you? Luo Ronghuan said, "Except for a few who committed the most heinous crimes, for the majority of the Japanese army, we still have to educate them to change their ways, win them to turn to the right place, and join the Japanese Anti-War League!" ”

"That's right!" Gu Mu said.

Luo Ronghuan changed his tone and said, "Of course, yes, their education methods, including punishment by force!" Moreover, only with the backing of force can the work of educating and winning over the Japanese puppet army be effective! ”

"That's right." Chen Shiyu said.
