While Tang Cheng was eating pancakes and drinking boiled water, he was looking around. Suddenly, he heard Liu Shitou next to him exclaiming "Huh!". Following Liu Shitou's surprised gaze, he saw that Liu Shitou was staring at a person intently.
The man with the gun who came out of the village said, "Company Commander, that rifle looks so familiar to me." Liu Shitou seemed to be muttering to himself, which made Tang Cheng's eyes fall on the rifle involuntarily. Liu Shitou
The reason why he said it looked familiar was because he saw the two knife marks on the rifle body at a glance.
After listening to what Liu Shitou said, Tang Cheng seemed to have some impressions. After thinking about it carefully, Tang Cheng understood the identities of the men in front of him. "Are you the ones Goudan brought back?" Before Tang Cheng could raise his head,
, a dark muzzle was pointed at Tangcheng, and the man with swords and guns who had previously blocked them pulled out a short gun from his waist to stop Lao Dongbei and Liu Shitou from rising up. "Tie them all up, and take them back to the captain for punishment."
Tang Cheng looked in the direction of the sound. The person pointing a gun at him was a middle-aged man with a shaved head. The posture of holding the gun looked like he had been in a war.
The thoughts in his head flashed like lightning. Tang Cheng smiled and turned away the muzzle of the gun pointed at him, "Are you Yang Tianbao's people?" Tang Cheng's question made the bald man holding the rifle a little confused. Tang Cheng
Seeing this, he changed the subject of his inquiry, "Are you from the guerrillas? Is your captain here? Please ask your captain to come out and speak. We have no ill intentions and are not your enemies." Seeing that these men did not move, they did not react.
, Tang Cheng smiled and took out two grenades with the back cover unscrewed and held them in his hands.
"Tell your captain to come out and speak. Or put down your guns. We will leave Lijiapu immediately. We will not offend the river." Looking at the grenade in Tang Cheng's hand, the bald man was also a little frightened, thinking that this kid looks at his age.
He's not big, but he's also a ruthless person. Seeing Tang Cheng show off the grenade, Lao Dongbei and Liu Shitou also unbuttoned their shirts one after another. They each had a grenade hanging from a strap under their armpits. The three of them looked like they were killing each other.
The horizontal posture made the two armed men with short spears feel timid.
"Tian Dachun, lock it up, you two cowards, I don't believe they dare to pull grenades." Seeing that his companion had pushed back, the man who pointed the gun at Tang Cheng scolded his companion sharply, but his own hand holding the rifle
They were also shaking non-stop. Seeing that the other three people were already timid, Liu Shitou smiled and pulled out a grenade from his armpit. While unscrewing the back cover of the grenade, he slowly walked forward and sat down directly.
Next to the man with the rifle, there was almost no gap between the two.
"You, what are you going to do?" He subconsciously took a few steps back to avoid Liu Shitou. Seeing Liu Shitou sitting there still smiling, the rifle man realized his overreaction.
He glared at Liu Shitou, and then said loudly to Tang Cheng, "Then you wait here, I will go find our captain."
Lao Dongbei clicked his tongue, rearranged his shirt and turned to look at Tangcheng, "How do you know they are guerrillas?" Lao Dongbei was obviously very interested in this issue. The Communist Party has always been a serious concern of the National Government, and guerrillas
The team is the team under **, and Tang Cheng is **'s captain officer. If Tang Cheng has any connection with **, the outcome will definitely not be good.
"You are stupid, I think your head is full of broth." He glared at Lao Dongbei angrily, then motioned for him to come closer to him, and then explained in a low voice. "Shitou recognized that rifle.
Yes, those were the things we seized from the bandits in Macheng. Later, those guns were sold to a man named Yang Tianbao. That man named Yang is a member of the guerrillas."
Only then did Lao Dongbei suddenly realize that Tangcheng himself was not sure what these people did. He was just guessing, but judging from the reactions of those men, it seemed that he had guessed it right. The rifle man had not been gone for long.
, several decent women from farmers brought hot soup noodles and homemade pickles to Tangcheng and the others one after another. Tangcheng knew it well but did not say anything about it. He just greeted Laodongbei and the others and ate the food brought by the villagers.
Eat these.
Halfway through the meal, the man with the rifle who had just pointed the gun at Tangcheng strode out of the village with a few people dressed as ordinary people, "My surname is Song, and I am the captain of this guerrilla group. I wonder what I call my little brother?" The leader.
The middleman stretched out his hand towards Tang Cheng from a distance. Since Tang Cheng had already seen that they were guerrillas, Song Tieshan naturally did not hide his identity. Tang Cheng also stood up and stretched out his hand to shake Song Tieshan's hand. Song Tieshan looked at Tang Cheng's face.
At that time, Tang Cheng was looking at Song Tieshan.
Unlike Yang Tianbao, Song Tieshan was born with the body of a soldier, and the hand he held with Tang Cheng was quite strong. However, Tang Cheng did not find the marks on Song Tieshan's index finger from frequent contact with the trigger.
Calluses. The action of Tang Cheng's hand inadvertently rubbing his fingertips made Song Tieshan stunned for a moment, and then he almost laughed out loud, thinking to himself that you still want to explore my bottom, I'm afraid I'm still a little young. "My last name is
Tang, we are all from Xishui County on the other side of the river. The Japanese army is coming, so we crossed the river and prepared to rebel." Tang Cheng smiled and looked at Song Tieshan, without even the slightest dodge in his eyes.
"I heard from Mengzi and the others that you came here from the other side of the river to rebel. I have a small request. I just wonder, brother Tang, if you are willing?" Seeing Tang Cheng nod, Song Tieshan couldn't help but continue.
, "Our guerrillas are a team dedicated to fighting the Japanese. It is also our task to collect intelligence. Since you are coming from Xishui County, I would like to trouble Brother Tang to tell us about the intelligence of Xishui County. Only by knowing ourselves and the enemy can we fight a hundred battles.
Yum."
Sun Tzu's Art of War came out of the mouth of such an old farmer. Tang Cheng had to say that he was a little curious. Is it possible that all the people in Yang Tianbao's army were like this? The fear and speed along the way had already caused the five members of the Han family to
Exhausted, since he has already crossed the river, there is no harm in taking a short rest. Faced with Song Tieshan's invitation, Tang Cheng thought for a moment and nodded in agreement. "Since it is Captain Song's invitation, we will not disturb you for the time being."
Lijia Pu, like most villages seen in Tangcheng, is not very large. The residents in the village seem to be only a few dozen households with less than 200 people. Following Song Tieshan as he walked slowly into the village, the villagers he met along the way were very interested.
The strangers in Tangcheng were full of curiosity, and there were a few children chasing the horses all the way, which made Xiaolian on the horse giggle non-stop. "Brother Tang, our conditions here are limited, and they are not as good as yours in Xishui."
In a place like the county, please forgive me if there is any negligence." After calling his team members to take the five members of the Han family to rest first, Song Tieshan led the three people from Tangcheng into a courtyard.
"Let's talk in the courtyard. The courtyard is bright and bright. Besides, these two brothers of mine are outgoing and don't like to be restrained." Song Tieshan let the three people from Tang Cheng into the room, but Tang Cheng chose to sit down
Under the jujube tree in the courtyard. Mengzi who followed him into the courtyard was a little impatient, but Song Tieshan secretly glared at him. He smiled and said that the host was a guest, and then he invited the three people from Tang Cheng to sit in the courtyard. Old Northeast was used to being carefree, so when he saw Tang Cheng
His expression was calm, so he didn't care, but Liu Shitou kept clutching the grenade in his hand and stared at Mengzi and the others with eager eyes.
"Shitou, put your things away. Captain Song and the others are not bad people. Besides, whether we have committed crimes or not, Captain Song and the others will not do anything to us." He turned around and told Liu Shitou, who was a little unhappy when he saw that he was not angry.
After putting away the grenade, Tang Cheng turned to look at Song Tieshan who was sitting opposite him with a smile. "Captain Song, my younger brother is a brainless man. He encountered too many defeated soldiers and refugees along the way. He was frightened. Let
Captain Song, you are laughing."
Song Tieshan didn't know who Yang Tianbao Tang Cheng had mentioned before, but he was very interested in Tang Cheng and he could tell at a glance that they were guerrillas. Seeing that Tang Cheng didn't talk like someone who was wandering around, he felt sorry for these people in Tang Cheng.
He became even more interested. "I see that Brother Tang is not very old. I wonder if you figured out that we are guerrillas? And who is the Yang Tianbao you told Mengzi before? We don't seem to have Brother Tang here.
This is the person I'm talking about." Song Tieshan looked at Tang Cheng with a puzzled face. There were Mengzi and the others in the yard, but he wasn't afraid of what trouble Tang Cheng and the three of them might cause.
Faced with Song Tieshan's question, Tang Cheng chuckled twice before answering, "Yang Tianbao is a person we met in Macheng. At that time, we intercepted a group of horse bandits in Macheng. Those who were captured from the horse bandits
Most of the weapons that came were sold to Yang Tianbao." Tang Cheng pointed at the Mengzi standing behind Song Tieshan, "The rifle in the hands of this Mengzi brother was the rifle we seized from the horse thieves at that time, and there is my brother on it.
The marks left behind, that's why we can identify you at the entrance of the village, because Yang Tianbao is the person you **."
When Song Tieshan heard this, he turned around and looked at the rifle in Mengzi's hand. It was not until Tang Cheng pointed out the marks on the rifle for him that Song Tieshan came to his senses. Yang Tianbao used a pseudonym, and his actual name should be Xie Chengping, but Xie
Chengping was not in Li's shop at the moment, so Song Tieshan had no way of knowing whether what Tang Cheng said was true. Perhaps he could see what Song Tieshan was thinking, and Tang Cheng smiled and said, "Captain Song, we are just passers-by, resting here temporarily.
After that, we will leave. We will not be enemies, so you don’t need to be wary of us."
Song Tieshan, who had seen through Tang Cheng's thoughts, couldn't help but blush and said with a smile, "Brother Tang, are you kidding? Since we have promised you to rest in the village temporarily, how can we guerrillas be such untrustworthy people? But the Yang Tianbao you just mentioned is really
Our people, I just don’t understand why, since you, Brother Tang, are from Xishui County, you would go to Macheng to fight bandits?”
