The three of them discussed it all night, but Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng still couldn't make up their minds. Ma Xingkong's mouth was dry when he spoke. The chicken crowed three times, and Ma Xingkong didn't bother to say anything anymore. The three of them sat quietly in the room.
No one said a word inside. They sat there until dawn. Ma Xingkong stood up and said, "Okay, if you two don't want to do it, I will, as long as you don't drag me back!" After saying this, he walked out.
As soon as he got home, he closed the door and called Mu Yunchen and Liu Wu in. Ma Xingkong got straight to the point. When Mu Yunchen and Liu Wu heard this, they were all dumbfounded. Even Ma Xingkong dared to do this.
Cha Zi is no joke. Ma Xingkong chuckled: "What are you afraid of? The worst I can do is go up the mountain and become a bandit like ***! It's not like I've never done it before!"
"Brother!" Liu Wudao said: "Don't you don't want to listen to what I have to say. To be honest, brothers have followed you through life and death for so many years, relying on brotherhood. What on earth do you think about this time, and why? Chiang Kai-shek
Whether we resist Japan or not has nothing to do with us! Even if the Japanese take over all of China, we won’t lose a hair, so why do we have to hold our heads up to do this?”
Mu Yunchen also said: "Since the young marshal and General Yang don't agree, it's natural for them to reason. Brother, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about Jianwei and the brothers. Jian Wei did this.
, If we don’t succeed, we will become a street rat that everyone wants to beat. Even if we succeed, and Chiang Kai-shek agrees to resist Japan, should we let him go or not?”
"Are you afraid? People say that people become afraid of things as they get older, and I think it's true!" Ma Xingkong looked at the two of them: "Okay, since you are afraid, I won't force you, you don't have to.
Do it, but I’m determined to do it!”
In the past two days, the atmosphere in the yard has become very strange. Long Jie and the others who did not know the situation were still laughing and joking around. Mu Yunchen and Liu Wuyi had sad faces. Ma Xingkong was still like that, but recently
Suddenly I became a lot more mysterious. I would go out alone from time to time and no one knew what I was doing.
That afternoon, a carriage suddenly came outside the mansion. Ma Xingkong stood at the door and said to a few people who were playing around: "Come here and help me move my things!"
Long Jie and the others hurriedly put down what they were holding and followed Ma Xingkong in. In fact, there weren't many things in this house that belonged to Ma Xingkong, just a few clothes and some daily necessities. A young man moved them all in in twos and twos.
On the carriage outside the door, Ma Xingkong took Wu Jing and Li Fang out of the door, and sent the two of them into the car with a smile. The two women may know why Ma Xingkong did this, and they all cried like tears.
Every action, no matter how dangerous it was, Ma Xingkong never let his family leave him. This time it must be very dangerous.
Ma Xingkong touched Ma Jianwei's head and smiled faintly: "Listen to me, from now on you are the only man in the family. Take good care of your mother and your second mother. Remember, no matter what
We cannot allow them to suffer any injustice at all times!”
Watching the carriage pulling a few people away, Liu Wuyi immediately said: "Brother, you really want it!"
Ma Xingkong nodded: "I've said it before, if you don't do it, I will do it myself!"
"But why is this?" Liu Wu asked.
Ma Xingkong shook his head: "I don't know, maybe this is God's will! I always feel that I have to do this!" After saying that, he got into the room again. Long Jie and others were confused, and Liu
Five people gathered around and asked about the situation. Liu Wu felt upset and angrily scolded several people until he was forced into his room with both hands.
Time passed so quickly, it was already past the twelfth lunar month, and it was so cold that no one wanted to go out. Early that morning, snowflakes were falling all over the sky. Ma Xingkong wore unprecedented clothes and did not go out. He wrapped himself in a quilt and sat by the stove.
While warming themselves by the fire, Long Jie opened the door and walked in. Ma Xingkong said to him: "Go, everyone, call me in, I have something to say!"
There were still eighteen brothers in total, and everyone was sitting or standing, making the room full. Ma Xingkong took out a large bag of silver coins from his arms, threw it on the ground, and wrapped the quilt again: "Everyone, I want to say something today.
I am planning to do a big thing, and whether I succeed or not, I may die without a burial place, so I don’t want to implicate all brothers. I know that you follow me because you think highly of me, but to be honest, I am not a good person and cannot let my brothers live.
It’s nice to wear warm clothes, these are all the savings I have now, please share them!”
"Brother! What are you doing?" Long Jie said hurriedly.
Li Yong stood up immediately: "Ma, you look down on us, don't you? I told you when we were in the cave that I, Li Yong, am a man willing to admit defeat. This life is yours. What are you doing in this place?"
What do you mean?"
Ma Xingkong smiled slightly: "Fifth Brother, Brother Mu, you two take the lead! I don't blame you, but this is very dangerous. I know you also have families, so you don't have to take risks with me!"
Liu Wu chuckled: "You can send your family members away, but we can't send our family members away. Okay, I won't say anything. From the day I followed you, I knew that I would be tied to you for the rest of my life, life and death."
It just depends on God’s will!”
Mu Yunchen also said: "Since you have decided, we have nothing to say, let's do it!"
Yu Mu said: "Brother, please tell me what it is first! Brothers don't know yet!"
"Okay, I'll tell you! After listening to this, if anyone wants to leave, I won't stop them, but starting from tomorrow, it's not up to you to leave!" Ma Xingkong threw the quilt back,
He stood up on the chair and said, "Listen up, I'm going to kidnap you. This time the person has a lot of background. Firstly, it's not for money, and secondly, it's not for food. It's just for one purpose, and that is to fight the Japanese!"
"Brother, just tell me who to kidnap!" Long Jie shouted: "I'll help you with such a trivial matter as kidnapping!"
Ma Xingkong smiled: "I am ready to help the Chairman of the National Government, Chiang Kai-shek!"
There was silence in the hut, not even a sound was heard, and you could hear a pin drop clearly. After a long silence, Li Yong suddenly burst out laughing and gave a thumbs up to Ma Xingkong: "Okay, if you have courage, count on it."
I'm the only one! If we hadn't taken the initiative to fight with the Japanese back then, we would have been transferred back just like these Northeastern troops, but we haven't had enough killing yet. If we could kill a few more, it would be worth dying!"
Yu Mu hesitated to speak. He understood. Liu Wu and Mu Yunchen must have tried to persuade them. It was obvious that they had failed. It was too late to say anything now. He thought for a long time and said: "Okay! It doesn't matter.
I am the only one, and I, Yu Mu, have never admired anyone in my life, but you are the only one, if you want to do it, I will do something grand and grand, even if you cannot be famous forever, you will still be infamy for thousands of years!"
