Qiao Xiaojing and Ah Zi were in the ravine surrounded by mountains, sitting in the two black Taishi chairs in Director Wang's office, who did not know their age but had lost their original appearance, their hearts were uneasy, and their eyes were attracted by Director Wang, who was preoccupied, moving in the room with his footsteps coming and going.

Director Wang suddenly raised his head and stared at Qiao Xiaojing for five seconds before he took the cup and poured water. Qiao Xiaojing and Ah Zi were frightened by his inexplicable move, they looked at each other, and their hearts rose to their throats almost at the same time, the tension in their hearts could not be expressed in words, and no one knew what this guy was thinking.

"What about me," Director Wang had already returned to his seat when he spoke, gently put down the water glass, moved the stool towards Qiao Xiaojing and Ah Zi, sat down, his eyes wandered over Qiao Xiaojing and Ah Zi, and said lightly, "I will believe you once for the time being, then you will talk about your affairs, and I will understand whether what you say is true or false." ”

"Good, good, we say. Qiao Xiaojing hurriedly agreed, nodded and glanced at Ah Zi, no one expected this to be the case, the two hearts hanging in the air fell smoothly again, and they breathed a long sigh of relief one after another.

"We," Qiao Xiaojing pondered for a moment, then looked at Director Wang, and said calmly: "We are indeed anti-Japanese revolutionary fighters, guerrillas, and came to this county for special tasks. ”

Just as Qiao Xiaojing was speaking, Director Wang slowly stood up, picked up the water cup that Qiao Xiaojing had drunk from the table, and gently handed the water cup to Qiao Xiaojing, and then looked at this woman who dared to fight against the devil intently.

"Be specific. Director Wang said.

"Okay, then I'll talk about the Battle of the Canyon some time ago, maybe you may have heard of it. Qiao Xiaojing knew in her heart that this Director Wang was still what she said. She took a sip of water and continued: "It is not humble to say that the Battle of the Canyon is a battle of defeat of the weak by the less, and the defeat of the strong by the weak, and a typical ambush and annihilation war. ”

"This battle is like this...... Qiao Xiaojing briefly told Director Wang about the situation of the battle of the canyon, she looked proud, looking at what kind of reaction Director Wang would have.

"Indeed, I know very well that this battle is very exciting, very remarkable, and I admire it very much. Director Wang stood up again, applauding excitedly while applauding.

"It's just a fluke, you're overrated. Qiao Xiaojing stood up, clasped her hands into fists, and showed a somewhat embarrassed look on her face.

Ah Zi also stood up and said with a smile: "Unexpectedly, the devil was caught off guard, and this is an unexpected gain." ”

"It's not unexpected," Director Wang said with a smile, "how can this be said to be an unexpected gain? You are well organized, you have made proper methods, and you have made careful arrangements for the selection of the battlefield and the deployment of troops, and you should have won the victory." ”

Speaking of this, Qiao Xiaojing felt that the person in front of her was likely to be the mysterious person who had sent the note, because only three groups of people knew about the Battle of the Canyon, one group of people was the devil and the traitor, they had already been buried under the loess, and the other group of people were guerrillas, which naturally needless to say, and another group of people were reinforcements, and those reinforcements were arranged by that mysterious person. Since this person knows so much about the battle of the canyon, it is very likely that he is the other group of these three groups, that is, the mysterious person who has been hiding behind the scenes and has not seen his true face for a long time--- in order to verify his thoughts, Qiao Xiaojing deliberately did not mention the mysterious reinforcements when he told about the battle of the canyon, he wanted to see how this person would react......

In the county seat Sai Xi Shi Tofu Workshop, Qiang Shuangxi was still staring at the old woman, waiting for the old woman to give him a reasonable explanation.

"Go back, stop pestering me. "That old woman didn't know what was going on, how could she tell Qiao Xiaojing's whereabouts?

"Auntie......" Qiao Shuangxi still doesn't give up.

"Confidential," said the old woman, solemnly, "I will not tell anyone, it's a principle!"

Qiao Shuangxi had nothing to do, he had no choice, took a deep breath, turned around and walked towards the backyard. After three or four steps, he turned his head to look at the old woman again, just shook his head, and then walked quickly into the firewood room.

"Shuangxi," including the nose, cigarette pouch and hairy eggs, everyone from Qiaojia Village knew that Qiao Shuangxi was hiding something in his heart, and when he saw him coming back, he stepped forward and asked, "What are you doing, what happened?"

"I'm fine. Qiao Shuangxi said a perfunctory word to everyone, then went into the bedroom, lay down on the bed, closed his eyes tightly, but said to himself, "Xiaojing, they didn't come back, and the big ones who went out to find people didn't come back, it's really ......"

The big man outside the city was worried when he saw a large number of trucks entering the county seat, and he couldn't care about hunger and thirst, and he thought that the arrival of these trucks was by no means a normal mobilization, but a purpose, that is, to rush for autumn grain.

The big man was restless, and several times he blended in with the people who entered the city, and wanted to blend into the city, but when he really arrived at the gate of the city, he saw the impermeable investigation of the traitors who broke their backbones, and saw the devils behind the traitors with eyes like knives and loaded guns, and saw that many innocent people were arrested as eight ways and twisted into the devil's car...... His determination was shaken, and the previous impulse disappeared, and he could only hold back the anger in his heart and leave halfway.

My Team Leader Qiao, where are you, in the county or outside the city? Have you already learned that the devil's truck carrying grain is coming to this county seat, and the devil is about to do it, do you know this? My team leader Qiao, what are you going to do, seeing that the devil is about to grab grain...... The big man stood in the woods, patting the bark vigorously, he hated to go to the sky and into the earth, if he had such ability, he would not have to be so aggrieved, and he would not have to be in a hurry here......

At this time, Qiao Xiaojing was looking at the person in front of her, smiling slightly, she wanted to see if this person was the mysterious person she and Ah Zi were looking for.

"Come on, you two may be seated. I'm sorry, we thought it was hidden, and there were generally no outsiders here, but I didn't think that the two heroines would be here, too, I have lived in the mountains for a long time, and I am short-sighted and have no beads, and I hope to forgive me. Director Wang smiled and hurriedly beckoned Qiao Xiaojing and Ah Zi to sit down, made amends one by one, and poured hot water for Qiao Xiaojing and Ah Zi.

Qiao Xiaojing and Ah Zi were a little at a loss, no wonder this Director Wang's thinking changed quickly, his mood and face changed faster, he was cold and angry for a while, and he became kind and kind again, Qiao Xiaojing saw him for the first time, so they naturally didn't understand his temperament, and it was human nature to be a little difficult to deal with. They got up, humbly took the glass, and kept nodding their heads in thanks.

"Hurry up and sit down, you don't have to be so polite, we are the water that washed the Dragon King Temple, the family doesn't recognize the family, all of them are misunderstood." Director Wang smiled and entered the back room, and soon came out again, holding a plate of boiled potatoes in his hand.

"You have also seen it, it is inconvenient to enter and exit here, and there is nothing to entertain, let's make do with some food first!" Director Wang put the plate in front of Qiao Xiaojing and Ah Zi, with an embarrassed expression.

At present, the life of revolutionary soldiers is very hard, Qiao Xiaojing and Cuiyu still have jokes, in order not to add to the burden of life on Director Wang, Qiao Xiaojing and Ah Zi claimed that they had eaten a lot of breakfast and did not feel hungry at all, so they excused themselves.

"Then let's get to know each other first, my surname is Wang, and I am the director of the political department here, that is, the political commissar, who is responsible for trivial matters. You two can call me Xiao Wang, or you can call me Director Wang like them. On behalf of all the members of our working committee, I sincerely welcome you both to guide our work here. Director Wang shook hands with Qiao Xiaojing and Ah Zi very warmly.

"My name is Qiao Xiaojing, her name is Ah Zi, and she is an ordinary member of the guerrillas. Qiao Xiaojing nodded with a smile on her face.

Ah Zi, who was sitting next to her, intentionally or unintentionally touched Qiao Xiaojing's body and reminded Qiao Xiaojing not to forget her intentions, but Qiao Xiaojing either coughed or shook her head slightly, and never opened her mouth to confirm whether this person was the mysterious person who wrote the note.

After some pleasantries, the three of them suddenly stopped talking, and the room fell silent.

"It's rude, I haven't asked for advice yet, may I ask what the two of you are doing here?" Director Wang broke the short-lived deadlock.

"You know the Battle of the Canyon, then you must also know that there was a reinforcement fighting with us at that time, and only then did we wipe out more than sixty devils and traitors, why didn't you ask about the reinforcements?" Qiao Xiaojing talked tentatively.

"Why do you bother to ask? To put it bluntly, it is mainly the result of your proper decision-making, proper command, tenacious fighting, and courageous killing of the enemy, and the reinforcements are just to give you a hand, so why mention it again!" Director Wang was very humble.

"It's obviously unfair to say this, if there are no reinforcements, just rely on a few of us, let alone annihilate more than sixty devils, even half of them, and they will all be explained if they don't get their lives. For that battle, Qiao Xiaojing knew better than anyone else.

"You are too humble and too polite. Captain Wang smiled warmly.

"Before, we wanted to come to thank us, but it was always delayed, so we came, and we were very ashamed. What I want to say is that I must sincerely thank you for always helping us out of our difficulties in the most difficult times--- providing us with great tips and saving me and Jade's lives. Qiao Xiaojing finally got to the point.

Ah Zi was waiting for Qiao Xiaojing's words, she sat on the side and nodded frequently.

"Tricks?" Director Wang looked suspicious, "I think you're mistaken, I haven't given you any tricks, and I haven't saved you and your sisters' lives, and to be honest, I've hardly ever left here, let alone seen you both." ”

"That's strange, isn't it who you are, could it be someone else?" Qiao Xiaojing was also puzzled and looked at Ah Zi.

"Well, now that you're here, don't think about anything else. I'll let you both meet someone, and you'll be happy. Director Wang walked into the courtyard and gave an explanation to a soldier, who ran away, and Director Wang returned to the house.

Qiao Xiaojing and Cuiyu became more and more puzzled, and looked at each other from time to time, no one knew who Director Wang was talking about.

About a quarter of an hour later, a young man walked in, Qiao Xiaojing and Cuiyu both felt as if they had seen this person somewhere, looking up and down, but they just couldn't remember.

"Captain Qiao, why did you come here, it's very remote here, it's hard to find here. "The young man was very welcoming.

But Qiao Xiaojing and Ah Zi remembered who this person was, and they just smiled symbolically and nodded.

"Don't remember me?reinforcements, Battle of the Canyon, ponies. The young man reminded Qiao Xiaojing and Ah Zi.

Qiao Xiaojing and Ah Zi remembered that this young man was Brother Ma's high-spirited pony. Qiao Xiaojing remembered that after the battle, she also gave him the command knife of the devil officer.

Qiao Xiaojing, Ah Zi and Xiao Ma exchanged pleasantries, and after that, Qiao Xiaojing brought the topic to the main topic: "Can you help us introduce the leader who gave me the note and arranged reinforcements?"

"Of course I do, but the old chief is in a meeting, and it will be a few days before he comes back!" Pony feels embarrassed.

"What a coincidence!" Qiao Xiaojing shook her head regretfully and sighed.
