Independence Corps

Chapter 32: Chivalry and Tenderness (4)
Thinking about the fourth girl, Bai Jianjiang's heart would cry out in pain.This time following Shen Mengzi to Huajialing, Bai Jianjiang's greatest achievement was seeing the fourth girl.Thinking about it carefully, it has been 16 years since he and the fourth girl separated, 16 years, there is no day when he doesn't think about her and miss her.When he was in the Broadsword Squad, he thought about going back to his hometown, Miliang City, but at that time, he fought one after another, sometimes fighting the Communist guerrillas, sometimes fighting the regular army of the Kuomintang, and sometimes fighting some local forces. , Calling back and forth, he beat himself farther and farther away from Miliang City.When he first partnered with Shen Mengzi's cavalry battalion, Bai Jianjiang got some news about the fourth girl. A soldier named Mang'er said that the fourth girl had disbanded the caravan and was trying to get married.

get married?Bai Jianjiang seemed to be stung by a bee in his heart. He was about to leave the Broadsword Team that night, and he wished he could step into Rice Grain City, but in the end he was stopped by Shen Mengzi.In fact, he couldn't do without the Broadsword Team at that time. He and Shen Mengzi were trapped in a village called Tongjiaba, surrounded by gunpoints.That was their most difficult breakout battle. When they broke out from Tongjiaba half a month later, less than half of his broadsword team remained, and more than half of Shen Mengzi's cavalry battalion was damaged.After that, he seldom heard from the fourth girl.

Forget the past.Bai Jianjiang tightened the reins, clamped his legs forcefully, and the red warhorse seemed to be ordered to throw off its four hooves, and galloped wildly in the night.

At dawn, Bai Jianjiang rushed to the edge of an unknown small village.The village was surrounded by a small river, and the rushing water made people itch.Through the thin layer of light before dawn, Bai Jianjiang saw a few hundred meters away from the small river, a few little devils were swinging with guns in their arms.He thought to himself, this is probably the contact point between Commander Tanishi Miyata and Gangmoto ahead.From Ma'anpo to this time, Bai Jianjiang has not encountered any obstacles, which proves that there are no little devils along the route.He also had a whim in his mind, if there was an army that cut off the devil's connecting line, so that the two ends of Gangmoto and Miyata could not be connected, the battle would be much easier.Then he sighed again, how can there be any troops now? General Fu is trapped in Wuyuan, but Commander Yan has strength. Realistically, hide the elite troops in the snow, and only send some weak miscellaneous forces to deal with the little devils.It is said to be Zhou Xuan, but in fact it is to let them die.If he dies, he can still go to Chairman Jiang to receive the award, because he can exaggerate a company into a brigade, a battalion into half a division, and exaggerate a defeat with pride. A little devil, he dared to say that he killed more than a thousand enemy troops.Generalissimo Jiang is eager to use his troops now, as long as he hears that whoever will fight to the death with Little Japan, a large amount of military pay and rewards will be sent to his pocket.

As for the 18th Group Army where he and Shen Mengzi are now, Bai Jianjiang doesn't know much about it. He only heard that the 18th Group Army has very few troops in the Miliangshan area, and Chief Yan doesn't allow them to stretch their legs in. Tang Peisen's 312th Brigade Once it's over, it means that they are the only force left in the Miliang mountain area.

Damn, after all the calculations, he and Shen Mengzi are now fighting alone!
He is not afraid of fighting alone, but the little fox Tu Lanlong, what is he worried about!If Tu's surname is calm and calm, and he knows what's in his mind, then thank God; if he has the same thoughts as Chief Yan, Mi Liangshan's play is really fucking hard to sing!

Bai Jianjiang jumped off his horse, found a hidden place to fasten the reins, and patted the bay red horse's head to signal it not to bark.With a grenade strapped to his waist and a gun in hand, he wanted to go into the village to find out.

Leaping across the river, Bai Jianjiang wanted to kill those sentries holding their guns and drowsing, but when he looked north, not far from the sentries, a group of Japanese devils came out of the alley with guns on their shoulders.The leader of the devil squad was still blowing his whistle, and his shiny black riding boots made a chilling sound in the alley.

"Damn, the devils are on patrol, and they were almost exposed." Bai Jianjiang was glad that he hadn't messed up, and quietly lay down under a ridge by the river, and waited for the patrolling devil soldiers to walk into another village alley before he quickly Leaping over the crop field, I touched the haystack of a family in the east of the village.

Bai Jianjiang reckoned that this small village has now become the stronghold of Little Japan, no wonder there are no fellow villagers in the village alleys, ordinarily, at this time, the villagers have already woken up.The plan for a year lies in spring, which is a good time for sowing, but unfortunately this large area of ​​land is going to be barren again.He looked around for a while, and found that about 500 meters away from him, there were a few little devils standing on the roof of a house, and it was probably the little devil's base camp there.Convinced that there were no devils ambushing around, Bai Jianjiang turned over with a kite and climbed onto the haystack.The haystack was just outside the courtyard wall, and Bai Jianjiang jumped into the house without much trouble.

The sound startled the people in the room, the door of the main room opened with a "squeak", and half a head flashed out.

"My fellow, I'm the Eighth Route Army, so don't make a sound." At this time, Bai Jianjiang remembered that he was the Eighth Route Army. Although he felt awkward, he still imitated Bi Chuanyun and Shi Run and greeted his fellow villagers affectionately.

Unexpectedly, the word "eight roads" is really effective. The fellow who dared not come out asked him that he was from Huajialing, Miliang Mountain, and then he opened the door of the main room and flashed his whole body.

It was a middle-aged man in his early forties who ran over nervously and said to him, "Go away, we dare not keep you. If the imperial army finds out, my family will die."

Bai Jianjiang thought in his heart, it's over, as soon as he heard this, he knew that the little devil's despotic power had frightened the fellow villagers.

"Fellow, don't be afraid, I'm passing by, and I want to ask you, how many devils are there in this area?"

"I don't dare to say this, you'd better go, my family has old and young, I really dare not offend the imperial army."

When Bai Jianjiang was in a dilemma, the door of the big house on the west opened, and an old lady came out and asked the middle-aged man, "Who are you talking to, early in the morning?"

The middle-aged man ran over in panic and whispered something to the old lady. The old lady said "Yeah", walked over tremblingly with a pair of small feet, and said to Bai Jianjiang: "You are so stupid, you can't lie? "

Bai Jianjiang nodded heavily.From the eyes of the old lady, he saw a kind of trust and a kind of longing.

"Then go into the house quickly, I have something to tell you." The old lady stretched out a withered hand, grabbed Bai Jianjiang, and led him into the big house.

"Are you really Balu, a good man?" The old lady asked again, looking up and down Bai Jianjiang, as if this person was not quite like the Balu she had seen.

Bai Jianjiang reported the number of his unit and the name of the division commander.When the old lady heard it, she was relieved.It seems that the teacher holds a lot of weight in the old lady's heart.

"I've been looking forward to your coming for a long time. This group of unconscionable people will never do bad things." The old lady sighed, whimpered, and told all the bad things the devil had done in the village with her nose and tears.

It turned out that the devils drove into the village a month ago. There were six to seven hundred people, and they arrested women as soon as they came.Some were taken away by the devils in trucks and sent to various places for the enjoyment of the little devils, and some were still locked in the courtyard of Liu Laocai's house in the east of the village.The men also resisted at first, but the devil had a gun in his hand, and more than 700 people in the village were dragged away by the devil and shot. picked.After being abused by the devil's squadron leader, the second daughter-in-law slammed her head against a tree and died.

"Sin!" The old lady thumped her leg, her throat choked.

During this time, the middle-aged man entered and exited a few times, looking uneasy.After the old lady relieved her breath, she cursed at her son viciously: "Useless things, your mother is dragging you for nothing. If you have the guts, you will become a soldier and fight the little devil with a gun."

The middle-aged man took a breath and said, "Mom, am I sick? Besides, there are so many devils, what can we do to fight him!" After finishing speaking, he squatted on the ground with his head in his arms, with a helpless expression.

Bai Jianjiang didn't dare to blame the middle-aged man. Since he came to this land as a kid, he has seen too many helpless and desperate men like this. The common people are the common people, and they have no better way than to endure.

"Where is that Liu Laocai? Did he become a traitor?" Bai Jianjiang hated traitors the most in his life. Little Japan dared to be so rampant in China, which had a lot to do with the gang of traitors raised by sons of a bitch.He once swore that against traitors, he would kill one if he saw one, and kill both if he saw two.

"Dead." The old lady said, wiping away her tears.

"Dead?" Bai Jianjiang wondered.

"The village was not very popular, so they secretly tied him up and threw him into the river at night. His two sons were also killed by Gousheng and the others."

Bai Jianjiang breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked: "Who is the dog left?"

"The youngest in the village, from the old Zhong's family, has the guts, so he dares to fight the little devil." The old lady suddenly gained confidence when she spoke, and the tears in her eyes stopped, and she told Bai Jianjiang many things about the dog in one breath.She told Bai Jianjiang that right now Gousheng is hiding on the mountain with a group of young people, and will sneak into the village whenever he can, killing as many devils as he can.

Bai Jianjiang's heart skipped a beat, the word "dog leftover" had already planted in his heart.
