A ragged Eighth Route Army climbed to the top of the slope, looked into the distance, and immediately changed to lie down to observe.

In the sun, on the hillside in the distance, there was the ruins of a village, surrounded by green crops, and a dozen people were sparsely busy in the fields, toiling.

Not long after, another Eighth Route Army went up to the top of the slope, lay down beside the soldiers who had arrived before, looked at the ruins for a while, and then took out a map and carefully compared it for a long time.

"Aoyama Village. He read out loud unconsciously.

A person dressed as a common man then also went up the slope, after hearing the man chant the name of Qingshan Village, he sat down behind two people on the slope tiredly, his clothes were torn, his shoes were torn, and he couldn't distinguish the color of his whole body, while rubbing his calves, he said: "There should be a three-way crossing not far from here to the east, the east is the fallen leaf village, the southeast is the green water paving, both roads can go out of the mountain, this is the boundary of Meixian County." Alas, my mother, I really can't go on. ”

The Eighth Route Army put away the map, still lying on the top of the slope and did not stand up, looking at the ruins in the distance in a daze.

The people dressed as ordinary people urged: "Twenty miles further east, we will go out of the mountain, hold on." ”

The eight-way turned over and turned around, and a smile appeared on the dirty face that was sloppy and stubble, he was the Ye platoon leader.

After wandering around the mountains with the team for a long time, he finally failed to find the division headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, and later the Eighth Route Army seemed to become vigilant, and the liaison and inventory between friendly forces were also strengthened, resulting in the exhaustion of the advance team led by Platoon Commander Ye, and the living environment was no longer as comfortable as when he first entered the mountain, and it became more and more difficult. Fighting, wounded, sick, starving, the team of more than thirty people was now less than twenty, so they had to withdraw from the mountain, and then moved to the territory of Meixian.

There was only one step away from his own territory, so Platoon Leader Ye smiled at the guide, took out a piece of dirty paper and pencil, wrote some words on it, and then handed it to the guide: "It's hard work, you can leave directly, with this, you can go to any place where there is an imperial army to receive your other half of the reward, I hope we can cooperate in the future." ”

The guide carefully folded the piece of paper and put it in his arms: "Next time, you'd better change someone, it's too offended, and besides, you're almost familiar with it." That...... I'll go back first?"

Platoon Commander Ye nodded, and the guide covered the piece of paper in his arms and got up to leave happily.

The fighter next to him asked, "Why don't we keep walking?"

Platoon Leader Ye turned his head to look at the ruins in the distance and the peasants in the crops again, and said, "I'm curious, this place is obviously in ruins, so where did these people who grow crops come from?" It seems that this Qingshan Village has been abandoned for a long time, but the crops are growing very well, it is not easy." ”

Raising his hand and making a gesture towards the slope, he stood up and began to move towards Qingshan Village, and nearly twenty exhausted ragged eight-way warriors then appeared, following behind Ye Platoon Leader, and gradually walked into a slip.

I thought that the people in the fields should greet them warmly when they saw the Eighth Route Army, or at least they should continue to work unimpressed. However, the reaction of the dozen or so people near the ruins was beyond Platoon Commander Ye's expectations, and when they saw this eight-way team, someone immediately blew a whistle, and then everyone threw down their hoes and ran away, throwing away all the tools, without looking back or hesitating.

They are all villagers of Jiuzhan Village, they are used to running, they have experienced a lot, and they trust the Ninth Platoon only because it is the Ninth Platoon, not because of the Eighth Route Army. As long as they saw someone with a gun, no matter what clothes they were wearing, their first thought was to run away from danger, not to mention that this team of more than a dozen people of the Eighth Route Army looked more like mountain bandits called Huazi from a distance.

This scene stunned Platoon Leader Ye and the others, and they couldn't help but quickly look down at their respective outfits, no problem? A typical poor team? Isn't this down-to-earth enough? What is wrong with these pigs?

Platoon Leader Ye's face became solemn, and his first thought was to suspect that these people had heard the news of the advance team, otherwise what would they run when they saw the Eighth Road?

The people weren't running around, they were all facing south, in the same direction. So Platoon Commander Ye shouted at the backs of those who ran away: "Fellow villagers, we are the Eighth Route Army, don't get me wrong." At the same time, he gestured behind him, and immediately two people ran out in the direction of the people.

......

Ma Liang gave Sun Cui two ideas, first, let Xiao Hongying be the head of Jiuzhan Village, the actual work is carried out by Sun Cui, and the women's association and the militia team are real; Second, take advantage of the fact that Director Su has not come back now, seize the time to make some achievements and prove that he can be competent. In this way, after Officer Su returns, it will be difficult for her to remove the candidate in public or private, and the matter can be decided.

Sun Cui's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he praised Ma Liang for being a smart and handsome confidant and good young man, but in fact, Ma Liang got inspiration from the last time Xiao Hongying acted as the ninth platoon leader.

So Sun Cui collected Xiao Hongying's advanced deeds, polished and exaggerated them, and turned them into a legendary story to tell the villagers of Jiuzhan Village. I haven't talked about the plot of those brave devils and wise murderers, just talking about the orphans of the Red Army since childhood, the 25,000-mile long march adrift, the audience has tears in their eyes, isn't she the best spokesperson of the wandering family? Aren't you originally given the next by the red tassel platoon leader! This is fate! No matter how young she is, she will not lose her share, and the village chief will let her be our still no opinion, since ancient times, heroes have been teenagers.

The villagers' problems were easily solved, and Sun Cui immediately crossed the river and returned to the wine station to find Xiao Hongying.

"What's the matter? She's the village chief? Oh, I'm a grandmother, a demon moth can be a butterfly! Luo Fugui couldn't help but sigh after listening to Sun Cui say his thoughts to Xiao Hongying.

Sun Cui glanced at Luo Fugui fiercely: "Rammer, die!" and then smiled at Xiao Hongying: "Girl, this village chief must be you, do you hear?"

"But I'm ...... It's a soldier of the Eighth Route Army, how can he be the village chief again?" A pair of beautiful big eyes flashed in surprise, she was interested in the platoon commander, company commander, battalion commander, and regiment commander, but the village chief--I didn't feel majestic enough, and I was not very interested.

Sun Cui's expression was solemn: "Silly girl, this is the trust of the villagers, if you don't do it, they still have to think that our Eighth Route Army looks down on them?

Luo Fugui couldn't help but bend a little, stared at two round eyes, leaned over and looked at Sun Cui fixedly, and said, "Feelings, you are ......"

At this time, there was a sudden sound of running, and more than a dozen villagers entered the wine station out of breath, attracting everyone's attention.

Ma Liang poked his head out of a window and asked, "What's wrong?"

One of the villagers bent over and gasped and replied, "There are more than a dozen of them carrying guns, and when we saw them, we ran back." ”

"Who is the gun?"

"I don't know, it seems to be in tatters, it could be your people. ”

Who could our people be?" Ma Liang thought and walked out the door......
