Chapter 1103: All Shrewd People!
Li Jing and the others sat on the mountain and waited.
Li Jing has no doubts about the old man's status in Ma Hongji's heart, but he is not sure whether Ma Hongji will give the old man face in this matter, after all, he has beaten this village several times, and under the random gun, he will definitely kill people, and this feud will be great.
Of course, as long as Ma Hongji gives face to the old man, even if it is superficial respect, and allows himself and others to enter the village today, then he has a correct attitude and believes that he will eventually gain everyone's understanding...... In fact, Li Jing also understands that it is not so much about obtaining the understanding of the villagers as it is mainly about obtaining the understanding of Ma Hongji, after all, he knows that in this society, the concept of clan is powerful and effective. It can be said that as long as Ma Hongji really forgives himself, then it is equivalent to resolving at least half of the anger and hostility of the villagers, otherwise, it is * annoying.
At this moment, Li Jing even complained a little about the task assigned to him by Zhang Qingshan.
Li Jing has no confidence in his heart, and the two Gazi on the side are even less confident in their hearts.
"Battalion commander, what do you say, what will happen to this Ma Hongji?" Ergazi sat down beside Li Jing and asked in a low voice while handing Li Jing a cigarette.
"I don't know the bottom of my heart. ”
"Battalion commander, I think it's better for us to have more eyes. ”
Seeing that Li Jing looked at him puzzled, Ergazi lit a cigarette for Li Jing first.
After taking a puff of cigarette, Ergazi glanced left and right, and saw that there was no one within a few meters around, so he got closer and whispered to Li Jing: "Big boss, I think so, you take half of the people into the village first, and I will take half of the people to ambush outside the village." Wait a minute, if he Ma Hongji is sincere, even if it is to welcome you into the village on the surface, and then it will be fine until dawn, I will bring people into the village, and say that I just came after the mission. But if he Ma Hongji dares to play tricks, we will cooperate with the inside and outside and end this village. ”
Even the title was changed to the big boss, it can be seen that Ergazi was really worried about this matter in front of his eyes, so he wanted to use this title to show that he was Li Jing's person.
Li Jing was silent...... Ergazi's proposal is very normal, and it is also the safest way, after all, no one knows Ma Hongji's real plan, in case he really takes the risk, first introduces everyone into the village, and then suddenly makes a move, then even if Li Jing's side wins the final victory, but under the hard fight, he will definitely suffer heavy damage, how can he complete the task?
Ergazi looked at Li Jing directly, waiting for a reply.
"It's okay to be inside and out, and that's at least just in case. However, even if we want to fight, we can only take Ma Hongji's home, for other people, we still have to endure ......" said, he looked up at Ergazi, and said solemnly: "Ergazi, you remember, we are now the Eighth Route Army, you are the deputy company commander of the assault regiment, I am the battalion commander of the assault regiment, in the future, maybe you and I can become generals, and the brothers will follow me to have a bright future, and we can be regarded as having an explanation for the brothers...... Now, there is really no need for us to leave the road and go back to the past...... Do you understand?"
"Big boss, it doesn't matter if I understand it or not, anyway, I will do whatever you say, and I will accompany you when you cut off your head. ”
Li Jing patted Ergazi's shoulder with emotion, and then looked at Majiapo Village again and was silent for a long time.
"It's lit!"
After a while, I saw a dark village, and suddenly there was a light. Then, I saw a big family with a high door lit up, and after a closer look, it turned out that there were a lot of lanterns hanging in this family's house, and in this darkness, it was really as conspicuous as a pearl.
It also made the fighters a little excited: after all, in the dark, it is good to have a little light.
It's just that everyone can't figure out whether it will be full of light or extinguished next, and the whole village will be plunged into darkness again.
So, under this complex mentality of expectation and worry, whether it was a whispered discussion before or a soldier who fell asleep on the ground, at this time, they all stared directly at the village under the mountain, waiting for the final answer.
After a while, everyone heard the sound of gongs, and faintly they could hear someone shouting. Although I don't know what this shouting is, with the sound of gongs rippling like ripples, the lights of every house are lit up one by one.
"It's lit up, it's lit up, it's all lit up......"
"It's so good!"
"What the hell is our own people......"
The soldiers were so excited that they couldn't help but sigh and applaud.
In particular, the vast majority of the soldiers in the three platoons and the four platoons who used to be heroes in the green forest cheered excitedly. Because in their view, since the people under the mountain are willing to light lamps, they are willing to forgive them for their past mistakes.
Li Jing and Er Gazi stood up at the same time, looking at the bright light as many stars below in surprise, but their mood was a little complicated, or rather, neither of them let go of the last bit of vigilance and worry in their hearts.
After every household in the village was lit up and some people came out, Er Gazi suddenly asked in a low voice, "Battalion commander, do I want to take someone to wait outside?"
Li Jing thought for a while and said, "No need, but it's ......."
Speaking of this, Li Jing sighed, and he didn't know whether he was sighing at his previous mistakes, or he wasn't sure if Ma Hongji was sincere.
We are now the Eighth Route Army, and we must endure what we should endure...... However, you will still let the brothers be vigilant in secret, and you will not be afraid of 10,000. ”
"Understood!" Ergazi nodded, and then asked, "Then let's enter the village now?"
"It's better to wait. Li Jing looked at the village under the mountain, frowned slightly, and said: "The old man is not in good health, he definitely can't run so fast, it should be the old man who sent Zhang Jinlong into the village to persuade Ma Hongji." Now, looking at Ma Hongji's attitude, it should be to give the old man face, but the two must not have met yet. Let's wait, and when they are decided, let's go down, and things will be much easier. ”
In the end, it is the old rivers and lakes who can pull up a team from scratch, just from the old man's body and the speed of the lights, he analyzes that he is inseparable.
Sure enough, a team with torches soon came out of the village and headed for the mountains.
......
The old man Zhang Mingfa was sitting on a stone on the side of the road, with a leather blanket under his buttocks, Zhang Jinlong's wife was standing aside, constantly persuading the old man, but it could be seen from the old man's face that the effect was not great.
There were two soldiers with guns standing around, and after a little more, five men gathered together to rest.
Seeing the team with torches getting closer and closer, Old Man Zhang's face became tighter and tighter.
"Grandpa!
The team came to Mr. Zhang, and before everyone could speak, they saw two tiger-headed little guys rushing out of the team, shouting loudly and happily rushing towards Mr. Zhang.
"Oh yes, slow down. Seeing the two of them pounce, Old Man Zhang's tense face instantly became like an old chrysanthemum blooming, and he hurriedly half-squatted, opened his arms, and said in his mouth: "My little ancestor, if you fall, how can you get it~! Isn't this my life......
The two little guys immediately kissed Old Man Zhang's face on one side, and the happy Old Man Zhang's goatee was shaking slightly.
Then, the two little ones were very skilled and stretched out their little hands at the same time, and said in unison, "Grandpa, I want to eat candy!"
Ma Hongji, who was on the side, saw that Old Man Zhang was smiling, thinking that he could speak, so he pulled his daughter-in-law to kowtow to Old Man Zhang: "The child has seen Daddy!"
Unbeknownst to him, Old Man Zhang didn't even look at the two of them, but smiled at the two little ones and said, "Okay! Eat sugar, eat candy ......", and touch his pockets. As a result, he didn't touch the sugar, and he immediately shouted to Zhang Jinlong's daughter-in-law: "Sugar?"
"I'll get it!" Zhang Jinlong's daughter-in-law replied and hurried to get it.
And the old man Zhang was obviously angry, and wanted to cool Ma Hongji, but he still didn't look at him, just on the two children, this touch, that pinch, and nagged vigorously: "It's gone! It's gone! I definitely haven't eaten much meat......
The two little guys obviously got Ma Hongji's orders in advance, and the older Dabao looked back at his father and mother, and asked Old Man Zhang in a low voice: "Grandpa, it's cold on the ground, can you let Daddy get up?"
Hearing that the eldest son pleaded for him, Ma Hongji immediately raised his head and smiled flatteringly at the old man who came over. Who knows, the old man took the candy handed over by his little daughter-in-law, and said to Ma Hongji's daughter-in-law: "Jiafang, why are you still kneeling on the ground, get up quickly, the ground is cold." ”
Ma Hongji's daughter-in-law didn't dare to disobey the old man's words, so she had to look apologetically at her husband, stood up, walked to Old Man Zhang's side, and stood with a smile.
Old Man Zhang retracted his gaze, distributed the candy one by one to the two little guys, and teased the two little guys from time to time, and the two little guys laughed endlessly, as if they had forgotten their own father.
On the side, Ma Hongji's wife just looked at Ma Hongji from time to time, and secretly glanced at Old Man Zhang, and wanted to plead several times, but Zhang Jinlong's wife next to her pulled her sleeve and shook her head gently, so that she had to bow her head helplessly.
Old Man Zhang's aura is strong, he doesn't make a sound, except for the two little guys, others are like wood at all, don't say anything, don't even dare to move.
It wasn't until the sugar was finished that Mr. Zhang clapped his hands, kissed the two little guys on each cheek, and said, "Let's play!", and then, watching the daughters-in-law of the two families take the children over to the side to play, Mr. Zhang looked at Ma Hongji.
At this time, Ma Hongji was still kneeling on the ground, not meaning anything at all, but kept flattering and smiling at Old Man Zhang...... There is no shame in kneeling elders, not to mention the old man Zhang who treats him as his father, so Ma Hongji kneels with peace of mind, but these families around him are not surprised by this, obviously, although such a scene is rare, it is definitely not the first time.
"Xiao Ji!"
"In!"
"Get up. ”
"Thank you, Daddy!"
Ma Hongji smiled and was about to get up, but Old Man Zhang sighed and said, "Now, your wings are stiff, and it is difficult for you to give me back this old face a little thin face......
Ma Hongji's frightened face changed, and he knelt on the ground again, crying......
