Chapter 69: The Continuous Strikes of the Linked Plan (2)

  The old man panted and ran over, about to scold loudly, but Ouyang Qing hastily said: "Old man, don't be anxious, my medicine won't kill people, if you don't believe me, we can go take a look now!"

  The old man walked ahead, leading Ouyang Qing and the others into the village; first came to the old man's home, went in and saw that there were not a few Japanese soldiers lying on the ground, one by one spitting white foam, lying all over the place, with various postures, the bowls and chopsticks in their hands were thrown all over the floor!

  The old man pointed at the ghost on the ground and said: "Take a look yourself! Is he really dead?"

  Ouyang Qing reached out and put his fingers into the nostrils of a ghost to see if there was still any air, tried it, and asked the old man: "Grandpa, bring me a bowl of water?"

  The old man grumbled and brought out a bowl of water, handing it to Ouyang Qing. Ouyang Qing took out a small white porcelain bottle from his leather pouch, opened the lid, carefully poured out sesame-seed-sized medicinal powder into the bowl, and stirred it with a chopstick; then he said to the soldiers behind him: "Pry open his mouth."

  A warrior pried open the devil's mouth, and Ouyang Qing poured the medicine in. Indeed, in less than a minute, the devil came to. The old man took a look and sat down on the ground with a thud, muttering: "I killed people, I killed people..."

  Ouyang Qing waved his hand, and all the warriors rushed to different corners of the village like locusts, searching for valuable things and incidentally checking if there were any survivors.

  Ouyang Qing patted the old man's back and asked: "Grandpa, what's wrong with you?"

  The old man stared at Ouyang Qing with a dull gaze and said, "Good fellow, this medicine of yours will be the death of me!" After that, he began to wail loudly.

  It turned out that the old man had killed all the chickens in the village to make a sumptuous breakfast, which made the devils' appetite greatly increased, and they quickly started eating. However, many departments, such as those in charge of logistics, receiving telegrams, standing guard, patrolling, etc., only had a share of envy!

  However, the old man had a way to deal with it. He organized a group of young wives and widows to form a "Food Brigade" with over 100 members. They carried baskets of food and searched for Japanese soldiers who hadn't eaten. When they found one, the young wife would walk up and say: "Sir, you must be very tired, I've brought some food for you, please eat!"

  The devil took a look, the little daughter-in-law's eyes were filled with spring, charming and moving, holding a spoon for feeding rice in her hand, desperately feeding herself mouthfuls of food, and was deeply moved in her heart - Chinese women are more passionate than my mother!

  It doesn't matter which department, this trick is usually effective, but the little devil in the telegraph office was busy and flustered, and even when Lao Han sent his two daughters to help, it still didn't work, and the little devil even scolded them!

  The old man arrived at the front yard with a huff, and suddenly he was stunned. He saw the most terrifying thing: many devils were holding their stomachs and rolling on the ground, finally spitting out white foam, until they were motionless and stiff.

  He hastily gathered all the men in the village to search around and see if there were any survivors. As a result, only the little devil who sent the telegram was still alive. He suddenly became furious and evil; in his heart, he thought: one more of you wouldn't make a difference, but one less of you would be unbearable. The old man wanted to silence him!

  The old man wanted to order a strong fellow to deal with the Japanese devil, but everyone looked at him as if he were a demon and kept their distance. Having no other choice, the old man took his rolling pin and entered the telegraph room, where he saw the little devil still busy at work. With one swing of the rolling pin, he struck the little devil on the back of the head, and with a muffled groan, the little devil fell unconscious.

  Ouyang Qing helped the old man up after understanding everything and said: "Old man, don't get angry, first take me to see that little devil?"

  The old man could only take Ouyang Qing to the backyard with tears in his eyes. As they entered the backyard, Ouyang Qing saw that it was another five-room tile-roofed house, and there were still three rooms on both sides of the corridor. The old man took Ouyang Qing into the room on the left, and as soon as he entered, he saw: the little devil died a terrible death, which made Ouyang Qing's heart ache; in his mind, he thought: you bastard, you don't want to die peacefully; you have to like being violently killed, what a cheap life!

  Ouyang Qing spat out a mouthful of saliva, walked out, and went to the command center on the main floor for a look. He saw that many Japanese commanders were also lying on the ground with white foam in their mouths. He beckoned to the soldiers behind him and said: "Move everything away, leave the old man's things!" The soldiers came in and started moving things out.

  Ouyang Qing took the old man to the front yard and turned back to ask: "Old man, do you think I should save these devils or not?"

  The old man was worried at this time, and when he heard these words, he nodded his head and then quickly shook it.

  Ouyang Qing said: "Your meaning is not to save him?"

  The old man thought for a moment and nodded heavily.

  Ouyang Qing said, "Old man, it's not possible to leave these people unrescued. What if other devils investigate and find out that the devil was last seen disappearing here? Everyone in your village will be implicated, do you want that?"

  The old man hastily waved his hand and said, "No, no, I don't want to be like this. Good fellow, I beg of you, show me a clear way out, please." After finishing speaking, with a "thud", the old man knelt down.

  Ouyang Qing hastily helped the old man up and said: "There is a way, but I'm afraid you don't have the guts to do it?"

  The old man straightened his waist and said, "Good fellow, you speak, a scar as big as a bowl on my head, as long as the young masters in the village don't suffer, I'll do anything!"

  Ouyang Qing patted the old man's shoulder and said: "I knew you were a real man, I admire you!"

  The old man was flattered and didn't know where to put his hands, asking: "What's your idea?"

  Ouyang Qing said, "Follow me." He led the old man to the village's threshing ground and pointed at nearly a hundred cars and dozens of horse-drawn carts. "I've requisitioned these vehicles first. Load all the weapons, ammunition, and everything useful from the devils' bodies onto them and send them to Fenghuang Mountain. Then, take advantage of this opportunity to disguise all the devils as women - put on makeup, wear women's clothes; give each person a broken bowl. Tonight, I'll arrange for someone to escort you to the outskirts of Shenyang City. Your task is to lead these devils to the most prosperous Siping Street and have them beg for food. Once you leave, it will be done!

  The old man was stunned by this idea and muttered: "Your idea is too bizarre!"

  Ouyang Qing took off his shoes and knocked them against a small tree twice, saying: "What's it to you? Anyway, not doing anything is also a dead end, think about it!"

  The old man thought for a moment and said: "I'm afraid they won't listen to me, I can't control them..."

  Ouyang Qing said: "Don't worry about this, my medicine can make these devils obey you in every way. If you don't believe me, call the devil I just saved over and try it out!"

  The old man called over the ghost who had just woken up, looked around, found a pile of cow dung, and said to the ghost: "You go there and eat that cow dung!"

  The devil used to stuff cow dung into his mouth, swallowed it in a few mouthfuls, and even licked his upper lip, with an unsatisfied look.

  Ouyang Qing burst out laughing and said to the old man: "You're too talented!"

  After finishing, Ouyang Qing left an old man a package of medicine and told him how to use it. They agreed on the time, took off all the devils' clothes, and left 500 people stationed here; The other 1,000 people brought back all the spoils to Fenghuang Mountain.

  On their way back to the mountain, they met Fan Yu and others who had already found Liu Qing. Ouyang Qing ordered Xu Yingfa to lead 500 people back to the small village first, as no one was in charge and he was worried.

  Fan Yu and Xu Ying also made great gains in this search for Liu Qing, not only finding Liu Qing but also capturing more than 600 scattered soldiers of the Chinese Nationalist Party, and seizing a large number of weapons and equipment. After getting to know each other, everyone returned to Fenghuang Mountain with excitement.

  Liu Fang, along with Hua Fu'er and Tie Niangzi, walked out of the gate to personally welcome these returning heroes. Liu Qing and Liu Fang tightly hugged each other. Everyone looked on with tears in their eyes, hugging each other tightly. Of course, Tie Niangzi could only watch her younger brothers-in-law with tears in her eyes, constantly wiping away tears. What a reunion after the ordeal!

  After everyone sat down, Ouyang Qing told them about the devil's affair, and they all laughed at his idea, which was both ridiculous and extreme, and had a good match with Wang Changtiger.

  As soon as Wang Changhu was mentioned, everyone's nerves tightened again, fearing that Wang Xiaojun's troops would make a mistake. Meanwhile, Wang Xiaojun was crouching on a small hill near the gate, lightly grasping the trigger of his anti-tank gun, his eyes fixed on the gate through the sight, taking aim with all his might, ready to give the first car out a surprise!
