Ever since the love letter scandal broke out, Yumei had no direct contact with Shanzi for a week in a row, and asked Xiaofeng to inform or ask for instructions on all official matters.
Even if they meet in public, Yumei changes her original attitude and deliberately avoids Shanzi.
Today is the eighth day of the love letter scandal. Shanzi finally lost his temper, had a hasty lunch, and walked toward Yumei's dormitory alone.
At this time, Xiao Feng was chatting in Yumei's room. When he saw Shanzi coming in, he ran out of the door.
Yumei only cares about threading the needle and threading the shoe soles, and doesn't pay attention to Shanzi at all.
Shanzi was still conscious and took the initiative to move the chair in front of the desk southward for a while, then faced Yumei and sat down uncomfortably: "Yumei, are you still angry about that?"
Only then did Yumei raise her eyelids: "What's the matter? Tell me."
Shanzi scratched his scalp: "Actually, you should believe that I have no interest in Nurse Wen at all."
Yumei asked: "Does that matter have anything to do with me?"
Shanzi swallowed dryly: "Believe it or not, it's up to you, I don't mean it anyway."
Yumei finally raised her head: "Then who are you interested in?"
Shanzi hesitated for a long time, then turned around and answered: "Yumei, I have business with you."
Yumei threaded the needle and thread into the sole of her shoe again: "Don't be sophistical, I must answer today."
Shanzi said: "I have told my parents about this matter. In these days, our heads are tied to our belts. We may not be able to finish playing one day, and we cannot defeat little Japan. We don't talk about the long-lasting love between children, lest we
It makes people worried. You are here to say this, and you still praise your sharp eyes and ambition."
Of course Yumei remembered that it was one night before the independent camp was established, and Shanzi's mother deliberately invited Shanzi and Yumei to have dinner at home.
In front of Shanzi, Shanzi's mother showed her cards and asked Shanzi and Yumei to finalize their marriage, so Shanzi said what she just said.
Thinking of this, Yumei said nothing and concentrated on her needlework.
Shanzi continued: "Yumei, Xiaolin asked to join the independent group. You have asked Xiaofeng to talk about this for two days. I will take a look with you while I have time during my lunch break."
Seeing that Yumei didn't respond, Shanzi stood up quickly: "If you don't go and pull her down, Deputy Commander Zhao and I will go."
Unexpectedly, as soon as Shanzi took a step, Yumei suddenly said: "Stop."
Shanzi turned around and stared at Yumei angrily.
Yumei said: "Zikai, Yumei doesn't have much money, let alone buying leather clothes and shoes for you. The soles of these shoes are made for you. Sit down and measure them to see if they are good for your feet."
Upon hearing what Yumei said, Shanzi's heart was as hot as a hot potato, and like a three-year-old child, he sat back on the chair obediently.

Because the injury was minor, Kobayashi Lingzi temporarily lived in a dormitory with the correspondents and clerks of the Third Company of the First Battalion, sharing a bunk bed. This dormitory was just to the west of the company headquarters.
At this time, Xiao Lin was washing clothes in front of the dormitory door.
Because the wound on his leg was in the healing stage and he could not curl up normally, Xiaolin could only stretch out his left leg while sitting on a low bench.
Suddenly seeing Shanzi and Yumei walking over, Xiaolin stood up suddenly, accidentally pulling on the wound, and fell to the ground with pain.
Shanzi hurriedly ran forward and helped Xiaolin stand up with both hands.
Looking at the clothes in the basin, and then turning to look at Xiao Lin's dormitory, Shanzi asked where the people in the dormitory were.
Xiao Lin said that he left after eating, but he didn't know where he went.
Shanzi suddenly became angry and rushed to the golden leaf door like a bison. Without saying a word, he kicked the door open.
Jin Ye and Yanni were confused, and when they heard the sudden vibration, they screamed and sat up.
When he saw that it was Shanzi, Jinye didn't care, and couldn't help but cursed: "You're so stubborn, you're going to die a good death, oh my god, you scared me to death."
Yanni also scolded Jin Ye: "Stubborn man, if your donkey's hoofs are itchy, quickly find a knife and hide."
Shan Zi roared: "Get out of here."
This roar finally calmed Jinye and Yanni, so they hurriedly got out of bed and followed Shanzi out of the dormitory.
Stopping, Shanzi roared at Jinye again: "Call Chunping Qiuhong out."
Jin Ye originally thought that there was a big disturbance in her company, so she did not dare to neglect and called Chunping, Qiuhong and Chunxing out of the dormitory one by one.
Except for Kobayashi Lingzi, Shanzi faced all female warriors who looked like flowers.
"I have told you a long time ago that while Xiao Lin is recovering from his injuries, you will feed him and wash his clothes. Please open your eyes and take a look. What is going on?"
Shanzi pointed at Xiaolin's basin and babbled angrily.
Jinye finally understood the reason behind Shanzi's madness and cursed angrily: "Stubborn man, what are you saying at noon? The correspondents and clerks are responsible for this. At least he didn't starve to death, right?"
Shanzi asked: "Where are the two boys?"
Jin Ye said: "You ask me who I am asking, and it's not a little brat sucking milk. Who can still hold it in my arms?"
Shan Zibai glared, then turned to his sister: "Qiu Hong, wash these clothes out."
Qiu Hong pursed her lips and hesitated for a long time. Just as she was about to move, she was pulled back by Chunping: "Qiu Hong, the little devil deserves death. You can only get rid of your hatred by cutting him into pieces. Why should you serve them?"
Yumei suddenly realized that Chunping, Qiuhong and Chunxing had all been abused by the Japanese. Asking them to wash Xiaolin's clothes at this time was undoubtedly as painful as scissors stabbing her heart.
So Yumei said: "Xiao Lin, put your clothes here and ask the correspondent to wash them for you later. The group leader and I are here to help you join the independent group."
Xiao Lin said: "Political Commissar Jiang, while you and Commander Wang are here, I will tell you all what is in my heart. I hope everyone will stop hating me."
Yumei agreed to Xiaolin's request and asked everyone to walk into the company headquarters together.
Xiao Lin said——
Since he set foot on Chinese territory with the army, whenever he fought with the Chinese army, his gun deliberately missed the target and never harmed a Chinese.
One late night in the early spring of this year, Xiao Lin was chasing down the sick and wounded guerrillas in the western suburbs of Linshui.
When the team arrived at a dense forest, Xiao Lin, who was walking on the edge of the team, noticed that there were several figures shaking in the bushes not far to the right. Xiao Lin deliberately rushed forward and shouted: "There is someone ahead."
Under the command of squad leader Tomita Ryohei, all the Japanese troops chased forward together. Only after they had chased dozens of meters ahead did they find a rabbit jumping out of the grass.
This summer, the Japanese army went to Heya Village to rob food and encountered an ambush in Huanglang Mountain. During the battle, a Japanese soldier aimed his gun at a big man throwing a grenade. Seeing this, Xiao Lin pretended to stumble and shot the Japanese soldier who was aiming at him.
Knocked head first and fell to the ground.
Hearing Xiao Lin say this, Jin Ye couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, because Jin Ye knew that the big man who threw the grenade was really evil.
Xiao Lin continued:
In late August, Xiao Lin followed the Japanese to chase Chun Ping, Qiu Hong and Chun Xing. When the three girls were ravaged by the Japanese, Xiao Lin cursed them in Japanese as monsters.
However, after this scolding, Xiao Lin was slapped twice by another Japanese soldier. Xiao Lin felt pain and anger, and couldn't help but cry.
Hearing Xiao Lin say this, Chunping suddenly raised her head and stared at Xiao Lin's face. In her memory, when she was pushed down by the first Japanese soldier, there was indeed a Japanese soldier whining and saying something.
When Chunping let out her first scream, a Japanese soldier was indeed crying, but Chunping did not know that the Japanese soldier was Xiao Lin Lingzi.
I also heard Xiao Lin say that China is his second hometown. He is willing to join the Independence Regiment and fight side by side with the Chinese soldiers against the invaders. After the war is over, he will continue to look for his Chinese mother whom he misses day and night.
Xiao Lin's self-narration made everyone present feel moved and admired with admiration.
Shan Zi immediately decided to assign Xiao Lin to the third squad of the third platoon under Jin Ye, which the soldiers jokingly called the women's squad. This squad was led by Chunping as the squad leader and Chun Xing as the deputy squad leader.
Jin Ye then said: "Xiao Lin, since the regiment leader asked you to be a soldier in our company, you should first change your name and give it a Chinese name."
Xiao Lin did not hesitate and happily accepted Jin Ye's suggestion.
Shanzi looked at Yumei and asked Yumei to give Xiaolin a nice name.
Yumei thought for a moment and suggested that Xiaolin should be named Cheng Xiaolin after his mother's surname.

Today is November 14th, and there are only six days until the end of the month.
After breakfast, Shanzi told Xiao Liu to inform the three battalion commanders and the high-ranking commander of the machine gun company to come to the regiment headquarters for a meeting at nine o'clock to formulate a counter-mopping plan.
At nine o'clock, all the attendees arrived one by one.
Shanzi's past meetings had a well-known characteristic. Most of them announced decisions or assigned related tasks, and rarely put issues on the table for discussion.
This time Shanzi went out of his way and raised two topics for everyone to discuss——
The first issue is, when did the Japanese’s winter sweeps begin?
Regarding this issue, Xiaolong is 100% sure that the Japanese will start a large-scale sweep between the 20th and 25th and finish it within 10 days.
There were only two people who supported Xiaolong, one was First Battalion Commander Song Yijie and the other was Yumei.
Shanzi said, maybe this is a fishing net spread all over the river and pond.
Xiaohu spoke second, but said that the date is like guessing the watermelon through the skin, it is difficult to judge whether it is raw or ripe.
Shanzi scolded: "Bullshit."
After scolding, Shanzi turned his attention to Zhao Danian again.
Zhao Danian said while rolling a cigarette: "If my guess is correct, the Japanese may set the starting date of this raid on the two days of 20 and 25."
As soon as Zhao Danian finished speaking, Shanzi immediately agreed and set the starting date as the 20th.
Later, Shanzi raised a second issue, which area should be launched first after the Japanese raids began.
Just as Xiaolong was about to speak, Shanzi added that only by clarifying this issue could the independent group take a preemptive strike and counter the entire sweep.
Xiaolong then said: "Captain, if Xiaolong makes a mistake this time, you can slap him ten times."
Shanzi said: "Hitting the ears and shaving is corporal punishment. If you make a mistake like that, why don't you do it this way? If you are really wrong, then you and I will compete in drinking. You will drink as much as I drink. Whoever gets drunk first will be the loser."
Yumei got angry when she heard about drinking: "Zikai, this is a combat meeting. The independent regiment is about to face a regiment of Japanese soldiers. Please don't take the war as a joke."
Shanzi smiled disdainfully: "Yumei, I will tell you a story today. During the Three Kingdoms period, there was a general named Zhou Yu. His buddy Su Dongpo wrote an article praising him. The general meaning is that Zhou Yu faced millions of Cao
Bing, holding a banana fan and wearing a ragged straw hat, was drinking with his waiters while chatting and laughing. While talking and laughing, he drank ten bowls of wine and stunned Cao Bing."
Unexpectedly, as soon as Shanzi finished speaking, Yumei held her belly with both hands and laughed so hard that she ended up lying on the desk unable to straighten up.
Not only Shanzi, but everyone present was stunned by Yumei's unprecedented laughter.
Yumei finally straightened up: "Zikai, what you said about the Three Kingdoms is not wrong, and so is Zhou Yu, but Su Dongpo is from the Song Dynasty. They are hundreds of years apart, how can they be partners?"
Wiping away her tears from laughter, Yumei continued: "Furthermore, Su Dongpo praised Zhou Yu like this in the phrase "Nostalgia for the Red Cliff". The original words were, "Feather fan and silk scarf, and the oars and oars were wiped out in ashes while talking and laughing," referring to the Battle of Red Cliff.
The east wind burns the warships."
Shanzi's face was not red, and he was not ashamed. He pinched his chin and argued: "Don't worry about the war. Zhou Yu didn't take the Japanese seriously anyway. He just acted like this and destroyed all the Japanese. This is called the demeanor of a general."
Yumei laughed again: "Even so, but you must take the Japanese invaders seriously now."
Zhao Danian said: "Xiaolong, tell me your opinion."
Xiaolong said: "Since the establishment of the Independent Battalion, almost all battles, big and small, have been carried out around Heya Village, and they are all related to Heya Village. In this raid, the Japanese will definitely target Heya Village."
After listening to Xiaolong's prophecy, Shanzi nodded deeply and was about to say something when Xiao Liu, who was in charge of the security guard at the meeting, suddenly opened the door and reported that Bao Yulian was here.
