Yang Yachun, 20 years old this year, is from Tongren County, ranking second.

The family is well-off, and the Yang family has many industries in the county seat of Tongren County. In particular, Yang's rice shop, a century-old brand, was the foundation of his father's expansion of the family business.

After graduating from high school, Yang Yachun was reluctant to do business, so he has been working as a teacher in Tongren County Primary School - his eldest brother didn't want him to do business and compete with him for the family business, so he strongly supported Yang Yachun as a teacher. Therefore, Yang Yachun's life is rich and chic and comfortable.

However, Yang Yachun is not a progressive, he only likes to teach quietly, and is unwilling to participate in politics, typical 'not listening to things outside the window, and only reading the books of sages'.

For this reason, even if the little devil broke into the county seat of Tongren County, he didn't have any idea and still taught him.

The reason why Yang Yachun put pen to paper was not because he saw the scourge of the little devil to the ordinary people - to be honest, the little devil didn't have time to harm the ordinary people at that time. It's because of something else that happened to him.

The day after the little devils entered the county seat of Tongren County, all the rich families in the county who had not had time to escape or were unwilling to flee were betrayed by the traitors and all of them were summoned to a meeting.

At this time, the little devil was anxious to increase the number of people and fight in Xinkou, he was too anxious, saying that it was a meeting, but in fact he didn't say anything else at all, but gathered everyone together and forced everyone to write a letter to their home and ask for ransom. To put it bluntly, this is a kidnapping. Moreover, the little devils themselves are short of materials, and they pay attention to the war with war, so at the beginning, because of the materials, they don't want gold, silver and money, as long as they urgently need living materials.

Each family has 2,000 catties of grain and 10 catties of salt. When to send them over, when to bring them home, or else to starve the rich.

To be honest, this little thing is actually not much for the big families in the county.

Therefore, although everyone was a little unwilling in their hearts, in the face of the bright bayonet, everyone could only pinch their noses and admit it.

In order to prevent their pillars from being starved, and this little thing can be taken out casually, the people in the family naturally came over early to take things to ransom people.

In less than four hours, more than 20 wealthy households contributed more than 50,000 catties of grain and hundreds of catties of salt to the devils.

However, the bad thing is that it only took them less than four hours to get the things together, which made the little devils naturally think: You can send things so happily and so easily, it seems that the slaughter is not ruthless enough, so naturally there is the next knife.

Early the next morning, the little devil wanted to gather the rich family for a meeting.

No one is stupider than anyone else these days. Because of yesterday's lesson, this time, the rich families were naturally reluctant to go, and they all said that they were sick and dragged on.

But the little devils have neither patience nor treat them as peers, and with the urgency of the front-line urging, how can they be in the mood to grind their teeth with the rich family. As a result, every wealthy family received a notice.

There was no polite word on the notice, and it was written directly in the bare ground: 'If you dare to disobey the words of the Imperial Army and disobey the orders of the Imperial Army, you are the enemy of the Imperial Japanese Army.' In dealing with the enemy, the Imperial Japanese Army would only destroy them by force. ’

Those who are delicate and noble are often afraid of death!

As soon as they saw the threat of the little devil, which was equivalent to an ultimatum, everyone softened.

This time, the rich family got a total of 100,000 catties of grain and 1,000 catties of salt for the little devils.

The most direct result of the little devil's forced robbery of the naked land with bayonets was that the grain and salt in the county seat of Tongren County were empty, and it almost reached the point of having no price in an instant.

Although, this time, it took them two days to get it together, and some even hurriedly sent people to the nearby suburbs to rush to buy it. In the end, there are still people who really can't get it, so they can only use cloth to offset it...... The little devil doesn't want money, as long as he needs so many living materials at once, it is naturally difficult to get together for a while.

But in the eyes of the little devil: You didn't even dare to resist, so you directly gathered so many living materials for me, so if I ask for some more, it should be no problem to come. Anyway, how do you know if you can't do it without trying? There's no harm in trying...... This is the typical effect of squeezing the sponge, squeezing little by little.

So, on the third day, the little devil called the rich people together for a meeting.

This time, some people had no choice but to go, and some people were beaten to death. Yang Yachun's father is one of those who is reluctant to go.

For these people who are still unwilling to go under the threat of force, the little devils directly tear off the mask of hypocrisy, revealing a shameless and murderous side: they send troops directly to these people's homes, and they do not arrest people, nor set fires, let alone kill people - of course, provided that you do not resist. It's about robbing you of everything in your house.

As an important point in daily necessities, Yangjia Rice Store is naturally the object of key care.

When Yang Yachun heard that something big happened at home and rushed back, the little devil had already left. And the scene of him entering the house made him grit his teeth with hatred until now: Dad was squatting in the corner smoking a dry tobacco pouch, and when he saw Yang Yachun coming back, he raised his head and said hoarsely, "Son! There is nothing left at home, defeated." After speaking, tears rained down, opening his mouth wide but not crying a sound, looking extremely helpless and sad; the mother was in a hurry to hang herself, the maid and sister-in-law were persuading and crying and pulling; the eldest brother leaned against the doorpost, looking at the sky outside, beating his head while sighing......

Such a scene, Yang Yachun's heart was like a knife, if it weren't for his father's desperate stop, he would have to find the little devil on the spot.

In the end, he only left one sentence, and he threw his pen into Rong and joined the Tongren County Guerrilla Brigade - 'I'd rather be a free ghost than a slave to the country! If I am a martyr for my family and country, why should I regret this body--I am not filial to my son!'

Yang Yachun, who tasted the taste of slavery in the dead country, worked very hard in both training and studying.

Because of his outstanding performance and culture, he was recommended to the assault regiment by the county guerrilla brigade and became a soldier in the first platoon and one squad of the second company of the fourth battalion. Naturally, he trained harder in order to be able to protect his family and defend the country, and not to be a slave to the country. At the same time, because of his high level of education, he also became a teacher in a night school.

Because there are many recruits in the fourth battalion, they have not been used, and Yang Yachun naturally has never been on the battlefield.

This time, when he heard that he could fight and fight with the little devils, he didn't sleep well all night with excitement, and he always thought about how to avenge the shame of the villagers...... Of course, as a recruit who had never killed anyone, he was still a little apprehensive about killing.

When he came to Pigeon Mountain, he felt very awkward about joining forces with bandits to fight, and even looked down on bandits - his house had been robbed by bandits several times, so he naturally didn't have a good impression of bandits.

This is true not only of him, but also of many soldiers, because most of them are poor people, and they are naturally disgusted with bandits. To put it even worse, if it weren't for the military order, they would have wanted to shoot these bandits.

However, the instructor said that the little devils invaded our China in order to make our Chinese destroy the country and extinct the species, and compared with this hatred, other hatreds are nothing, and the brothers are insulting outside the wall, which is what he said. The strength of the little devils is stronger than ours, but our country is now in the poorest and weakest period, so we should unite all the forces that are willing to fight the devils and jointly drive the little devils out......

In fact, the instructor said a lot of things, but there was one passage that made everyone let go of their hostility: "No matter what hatred everyone had before, no matter what they did before, now, as long as they are willing to fight devils, they are all heroes and heroes...... Everything is judged by fighting devils, and nothing else is compared with the great cause of protecting the family and defending the country, and future generations should not be slaves to the country. ”

These words moved Yang Yachun, and he was willing to fight devils with the bandits.

Hearing that the devil had arrived, Yang Yachun began to get excited. However, the company commander suddenly gave an order, and everyone immediately transferred, which made him very disappointed, and he couldn't figure it out, but because of the military order, it was difficult to ask.

However, after listening to the instructor's explanation to everyone, he was only transferred to the rear in order to raid the little devil's 'ass', and he ignited his fighting spirit again.

Subsequently, hiding in the dense forest, doing nothing, he heard the battle horn blowing, the sound of guns and shouts of killing, which made his blood boil, many times he couldn't help but run to the edge of the forest, secretly looked, as a result, naturally could not see the battlefield, however, he felt, even if he could not see, but as long as he was closer, hearing the sound of the battlefield, he felt that his blood was burning, and his spirit was excited, as if the battlefield was calling him. Especially when the gunfire was the most intense, he was so excited that his whole body swayed slightly...... And his squad leader saw that he was in such an excited state, and knew that this was a recruit's rare desire to fight, so it was naturally difficult to disturb, so he chose to acquiesce. This made more soldiers run to Yang Yachun's side to listen, feel, and fantasize about how their comrades-in-arms killed the enemy and fought bloodily......

Under the excitement, time flies.

Yang Yachun didn't know how much time had passed, but he felt that he had just stood for a while before the troops gathered.

"Comrades, brothers, the battlefield is calling us, comrades-in-arms are calling us, folks are calling us. At this moment, take out our courage, let the little devils taste the power of our assault regiment, and let them know that we Chinese swear to die and not be slaves to the country!"

After the company commander briefly made the pre-war mobilization, he immediately led everyone to the west and came to the forest more than a mile south of Qinglong Mountain.

At this time, a large number of little devils gathered at the foot of Qinglong Mountain, and a large number of second devils were attacking Qinglong Mountain under the persecution of the little devil supervision team...... It can be clearly seen with the naked eye that from the upper half of Qinglong Mountain to the bottom of the mountain, almost the entire stone staircase is dyed red, and at least seventy or eighty corpses are lying down.

Seeing this scene, Yang Yachun was particularly resentful: You two devils of the dog day, you are soft eggs when you beat the little devils, and you are positive in beating your own compatriots. After so many people died, they still did not dare to resist, and they only cared about attacking their own compatriots, are you worthy of your ancestors, worthy of the people who raised you, and worthy of the great title of 'Chinese'?

But what made him excited was that the order had come down......
