Thick smoke floated over the compound, with a pair of beautiful hands, calmly gathered the black silk between the ears, raised his head, the black smoke drifting like black silk, just covered the sun, in the rising black background, just can see a miserable white circular outline through, changing from time to time, more like dark clouds covering the moon, more like night.

This is a desperate situation, there is no life, and no matter how long it lasts, this is also the end.

He was as calm as ever, saying that he would take everyone through the day, persist until the night came, and then break through.

He always said that, he always did it, and it was the same in the village under the tree, knowing that it was a desperate situation, knowing that there was no chance, he had to say this, and he had to do it. This scum, who is still doing it, as he said, like a soulless beast, roaring and struggling in the face of fate, trying to prove what he has said, as if, there is never an end in his heart, this deserter!

Compared to the fighters, all they can do is accept it calmly and wait for the end.

Later, she put away the gun in her hand, stood up, and walked to the backyard.

......

A large cauldron was temporarily propped up under the courtyard wall, No. 3 squatted aside to add firewood to the bottom of the pot, and the fire crackled and peeled off; No. 21 lifted the lid of the pot and sprinkled a large handful of salt, and then re-covered it, and a large piece of water vapor came out when it was opened, filled with a strong smell of chicken.

The footsteps behind him sounded, and the two people turned around in unison, it was the beautiful and cold female Eighth Route Army.

Su Qing stopped a few steps in front of them, first looked at the twenty-one, then at the three, and said calmly: "I think, I don't need to say more, you all understand the current situation, we can't live." ”

Twenty-one was silent, and number three raised his head and asked, "...... of us Can I take part in the final battle?"

"No, you can't. ”

"Why?"

"Because one of you is a traitor!"

Number Three stopped talking, and neither he nor Number One had any way to prove their innocence, nor could they prove that the other was a traitor. Of course, people who are not traitors know in their hearts that the other party may be a traitor, but it doesn't mean anything.

Su Qing coldly glanced at the two of them and was silent, and after a while, No. 3 suddenly raised his head and said calmly: "That's right, one of the two of us may be a traitor, but neither of us may be a traitor." Maybe it's just that one of them was being followed and didn't know it, or maybe it was the mutinous number two who told the enemy about this location, so that the current situation is now. You can't arbitrarily assume that one of the two of us must be a traitor. ”

No. 3's words made sense, there was indeed such a possibility, and the twenty-one next to him also raised his head to look at Su Qing.

Staring coldly at the calm No. 3 for a long time, Su Qing said, "I can!"

The twenty-one showed a puzzled expression, and the third was surprised, and asked rhetorically, "Why?"

"If No. 2 betrayed this location, then what the enemy has to do is to set up an ambush here, first catch the people who came here to wait, and then say, can you two still enter Xiaojiao Village? If one of you is followed by exposing your whereabouts, even if the enemy wants to set out a line to fish, then it is also necessary to ambush and monitor all around, how can you honestly hide in a yard?

Twenty-one began to be surprised, and number three frowned. Now I know that this female Balu is a political work officer, but I didn't expect this woman's feelings to be so keen. Then, Twenty-One looked at Three, and Three, at the same time, looked at Twenty-One, and the two men continued to look at each other.

"We're all going to die, that's for sure. Su Qing's tone was cold and calm, interrupting the eye confrontation between No. 3 and No. 21: "But this matter must be concluded first." Now I don't have the time, the conditions, and the energy to prove who is innocent. Since fate has arranged it this way, and the result is the same, it is up to you to prove it yourself, and I hope you understand. ”

After speaking, Three and Twenty-One looked at her hand and immediately froze as she pulled out a shell gun.

Unexpectedly, she deliberately pulled the bolt, showed the empty magazine to the two people, and then loaded a bullet in front of the two people. Then he took two steps forward, held the gun behind his back, and handed it to Number Three.

No. 3 Mu Ran asked, "This is ...... What do you mean?"

"Take it. After No. 3 took the gun, Su Qing continued: "If you are a traitor, then shoot me now, I am willing to use my life to prove that you are a traitor; if you are not a traitor, then I want you to shoot yourself and use your life to prove that she is a traitor; now you only have these two choices, this is an order." ”

A puff of black smoke drifted by, and the cauldron next to it was already gurgling and hissing, and the chickens were almost cooked. No. 3 stared blankly at the cold face in front of him, he couldn't feel the heat wave and fragrance around him at all, he could only feel the cold, and he kept holding the gun in his hand and refused to lift it.

"I'm waiting for your choice. Su Qing urged.

"It's not fair!" No. 3's voice suddenly became a little hoarse, and he raised his hand and pointed to No. 21 and asked Su Qing: "Why do you want me to make a choice, not her!"

"Because I suspect you're a traitor!" replied unusually calmly.

"Why doubt me?" the rhetorical tone was full of unwillingness.

"Because the yard where the detectives are hiding is too close to you, far away from her. ”

"Don't you think this reason is far-fetched?"

"Yes, it's a bit far-fetched if used as evidence. So I'm willing to use my life to prove it, but what about you? Will you prove your innocence with your life?"

"I refuse to carry out this ridiculous order!"

Su Qing suddenly smiled faintly: "If you give up this opportunity, then I will find someone to execute you in the name of executing traitors." Even if it's wrong, it doesn't make any sense, because we all die. ”

After speaking, Su Qing turned around calmly and began to walk back.

Three steps, four steps, five steps, and the number three behind him finally spoke again: "I have a third choice!"

According to his tone, Su Qing knew that the muzzle of the gun was already aimed at his back, so he stopped, but did not look back: "Is this an admission that you are a traitor?"

No. 3 shook his free hand vigorously, and the rope that was not tightly wound with No. 21 immediately landed: "You are not afraid of death, but some people are afraid of your death, you are my way of life!"

A man flashed out of a nearby corner, raised his shell gun, and pointed it at Number Three: "Put the gun down." ”

Hearing Li Xiang's voice, Su Qing slowly turned around.

No. 3 was unmoved, aimed at Su Qing with the muzzle, and slowly approached Su Qing, while gritting his teeth at Li Xiang and said, "You put it down, otherwise I will kill her!"

Phew—the gun went off.

No. 3 lowered his head numbly, saw that the position of the shot in his chest had just begun to ooze blood, and then raised his eyes numbly, the muzzle of the gun in the hand of the man in the corner of the wall was still smoking, and his muzzle was still trembling slightly, which should be his hand holding the gun. One last look at the cold woman in front of him, and tried to pull the trigger on her.

Click—the firing pin rang, but the bullet didn't.

One breath was released in an instant, and he fell on his back with a pop, and saw the sky full of black smoke, revealing a distant blue in the gap.

The muzzle of the gun was lowered, and the hand holding the gun was still shaking unconsciously, this was the first time Li Xiang had shot and killed someone, and he felt like an executioner. Su Qing asked him to help with a shell gun bullet, and now he knew that this bullet was used for this, which was no different from shooting.

A rush of footsteps sounded, and Shi Cheng hurriedly ran over with two people carrying guns: "What's the matter?"

"It's okay, the traitor is dead. Su Qing looked at the twenty-one who was standing still: "From now on, you also have to join the battle." Let's divide breakfast among everyone first. ”

Twenty-One nodded silently, then began to untie the rope he had tied around his wrist.

......

On the road at the west end of Xiaojiao Village, a three-wheeled motorcycle stopped, and long black military boots stepped out of the car body, and a devil officer carrying a saber came down. What is different is that his collar badge is not red, but black, with the rank of captain, with a black M-shaped military identification badge on his right chest, an armband on his left sleeve, and red letters 'Gendarmerie' on a white background.

The on-site commander was an ordinary devil squadron leader, and when he saw this person arrive, he immediately reported the situation respectfully.

The number of people in the Eighth Road is unknown, and the scale is judged to be small, and it is now trapped in Xiaojiao Village. The reason why no immediate action was taken against them was because the team that had scattered the cards in the early hours of the morning was collected, and at the same time, the people who escaped from the village were first sorted out. It is reported that there are more than 30 casualties and the company commander is killed, but the main force of the Eighth Route has been firmly surrounded in a compound, and only a few are still hiding in the village.

The gendarmerie captain didn't say anything after listening to the report, made a gesture to signal the squadron leader to continue directing his battle, and then held his saber in both hands, and quietly looked at the village of Xiaojiao not far away, and the thick black smoke rising in the village.

......

Luo Fugui sat by the gate of a small courtyard with a machine gun in his arms, took a few sips of the kettle, and said after burping: "Grandma, it's better to be a fool." My heart was broken, and he threw the grenade back without even blinking. ”

"Hehe, that means you're not as good as a fool. The girl said that you are a big straw bag, and she has not wronged you at all. Ma Liang watched near the hole in the corner, whispering.

"I wanted to pick it too, but I didn't fall at the time, I couldn't reach it at all, I wasn't scared. After a pause, Luo Fugui sighed lowly, and said, "I don't know how far the girl has run...... I really miss her for being a moral thing, carrying her so many ways...... More than when I carried my mother's back...... If only there was an independent group at that time, my mother would ...... It won't be ......."

Ma Liang heard that Luo Fugui's state was declining, and he didn't want him to say this again, so he said, "The girl can't run far." ”

"Why?" Luo Fugui was really distracted by this sentence.

"It's blocked everywhere, although the girl is a child and can run out of this village, but she can't go back, not to mention how far the road is, now at this time, all the checkpoints must be allowed to go out to the county, and they are not allowed to go out, even if she is a child. ”

"Say so as you say...... Doesn't that girl have to starve to death......! My mother was ......"

Ma Liang suddenly lowered his voice: "Shhhhh

"What's coming?"

"Devil, you go over there and sue the squad leader. ”

Luo Fugui got up excitedly, carried the machine gun cat and bent down, and hurriedly slipped to another courtyard.
