The second set of rural feelings seven, heroic woman on the mountain

  The old man laughed and said to his grandson, "This is almost your grandfather's uncle." The county magistrate, Guo, made a big bow to Zhang Biao but couldn't get close, as his father, Guo Biao, still tightly hugged Zhang Biao and wouldn't let go: "Uncle Biao, how could you not come back for so many years? Do you know how much I've missed you? The old soldiers and villagers here have missed you too?" Xiaoyu couldn't help but wipe away tears again.

  County head on the side making a phone call: "County annals office? Let Director Liu put down all his work and hurry to Kao Mountain Township, yes, come to the old village's breeding farm to find me."

  Zhuang Biao let go of Zhuang Biao and stared at him, asking County Magistrate Zhuang: "Son, you've gotten used to being the county magistrate, haven't you? Why did you call the person in charge of the county annals?"

  County Magistrate Zhen then stepped forward, supporting Zhang Biao and saying: "Old Master Zhang, now that you've come to our county, we'll have to revise the county annals. There are many things in the history of the War of Resistance that weren't written clearly."

  Yingzi pulled down Zhan Dongdong and said: "Is the 'Biao' in Zhuan Biao and Grandpa Zhan's 'Biao' the same character?"

  Xiao Yu heard and immediately explained: "It's a leopard, since you can't marry one with a leopard, then give birth to one with a leopard."

  At 19 years old, Zhan Biao was stunned and flustered with a red face when he heard Xiaoyu say she wanted to marry him. Xiaobao asked Xiaoyu in a daze, "Yuer, what's wrong with you? Why do you suddenly want to marry Brother Biao?"

  Xiao Yu said in a low voice: "In this world, only this man has seen my body, moved my body, and even kicked my butt. I won't marry anyone else if not him. I'm his now!"

  Xiao Bao laughed: "You silly girl, you only saw your body, and besides, at that time you were covered in blood. I didn't even dare to touch you, so he had to help you wash up. And at the time, you had also fainted."

  Xiao Yu said stubbornly: "Anyway, I want him to marry me. If he dares not to marry me, who else will want me?"

  Xiao Bao hugged Xiao Yu, patted her shoulder and said: "Where is your Da Shun brother? He's a hundred times good to you. Don't think nonsense anymore, Xiao Yu." The two of them hugged each other, tears streaming down their faces. For this chaotic world, for their own bitter lives.

  During the transportation of weapons and disposal of enemy corpses, Ermin and others gained a good impression from Zhan Biao. Since hearing Xiaobao talk about the anti-Japanese struggles across the country, especially in occupied areas, Zhan Biao also thought that he couldn't just stay on guard all the time. Before joining the army, he had always dreamed of being as heroic as the Northeast Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army. Now that they had so many weapons, they should actively join the anti-war effort. However, manpower was a big problem. This heavy machine gun required four people to carry and operate according to standard procedures, and during shooting, there needed to be an assistant shooter. Fortunately, they now had air-cooled 92-type heavy machine guns; if they were the water-cooled M24 Maxim machine guns commonly used by the National Army, it would require five people, including one person carrying a large bucket of water. Their own strength was too small, with only nine people, and according to standard equipment, they could only operate two heavy machine guns.

  So he and Xiaofeng briefly discussed it, and when they sent Ermin and Kouzi back to the village, they asked this group of young people: "Is there anyone among you who wants to fight against the devils with us, and wants to be a machine gunner?" As soon as he finished speaking, all the young people raised their hands. Kouzi, who was holding up his hand, said: "Squad leader San also promised me to join his guerrilla team and Tan Yinglong's New Fourth Army..." Ermin interrupted him, saying: "I think highly of Biao Ge, he has guts, is loyal, and here we have guns and cannons. Squad leader San and Tan Yinglong only issued big knives and hand grenades, it will take years to fight against the devils." Now all the young people in the village, regardless of their age, call him "Biao Ge".

  Zhan Biao told everyone: "Today, you all drive back, and discuss with your parents and Uncle Yuan tonight. If you want to come, report here before noon tomorrow."

  The next day, at dawn, Ermin and Kuo Tzu led 24 young people up the mountain, including nine who had not come yesterday, and a big young man they had never seen before, named Chü Ta-shun.

  Zhu Dashun was taken back to Kaishan Town by Secretary Gui last night, and Xiaoyu rushed into his arms and cried for half a day. Zhu Dashun said that he had been captured by the Japanese army for a year and had been repairing the artillery tower all along, and was rescued two days ago when Secretary Gui attacked the artillery tower. In the end, Xiaoyu said to Zhu Dashun: "Sorry, Dashun, you should find a better wife than me in the future, I'm going to marry Zhang Banlong on the mountain."

  Zhu Dashun was heartbroken, and Xiao Bao pulled him aside to explain the situation. He said that they should work together to win over Xiaoyu, who was currently unable to think clearly due to her old-fashioned ideas. Zhu Dashun saw Ermin and others return and heard that Zhang Piao wanted to expand his army, so he signed up without hesitation. He also wanted to see what kind of person could easily capture Xiaoyu's heart. Both he and Xiao Bao knew in their hearts that if Xiaoyu didn't look down on someone, even if she was seen by him, she wouldn't be so devoted to following him; she would rather become a nun or kill herself.

  Zhan Biao knew that Zhai Dashun was the fiancé of Xiaoyu, so he was very enthusiastic and trusted. He let his eight disciples each bring three new soldiers, four people in a group, called Class 1 to Class 8, and the eight disciples were all class leaders, while Zhai Dashun, Er Min, and Kouzi became deputy class leaders.

  Zhan Biao named his team the Jiangnan Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Battalion, with himself as the battalion commander and Xiao Feng as the deputy commander. They then began intense training day and night. Zhan Biao knew that the Japanese army would not let go of the disappearance of a small team and an enhanced battalion last time, so he had to bring out a well-trained team at the fastest speed. He first equipped each person with a rifle and a pistol, as well as a steel helmet with a blue sky and white sun emblem, which was left behind when the entire regiment retreated lightly. The new recruits were overjoyed, sleeping while hugging their two long and short equipment.

  Qiang Zi took charge as the chief instructor and first taught them a series of queue training and military discipline knowledge before teaching the new recruits how to use rifles, pistols, hand grenades, light machine guns, and finally heavy machine guns, from ammunition handlers to deputy shooters to main shooters. A shooting range had been developed in the cave early on, although they had to save bullets, live-fire training was indispensable, and Da Yu shouted every day that live-fire training wasted too many bullets. Chief Instructor Qiang Zi praised this batch of young people from Jiangnan for learning quickly, especially Da Yu, who seemed to be born with it.

  The Japanese army was frantically searching for an opponent that could annihilate a small team, but they never thought it had anything to do with the town of Kao Shan. Because these soldiers were killed in an ambush by regular troops with strong machine gun fire on the other side of a river 20 miles away. The Japanese army dispatched nearly a regiment of troops to sweep the surrounding area for a week without finding anything. Lieutenant General Sakaai Naotsugu, commander of the 15th Division, was furious and directly dispatched a 50-man special officer team led by Major Matsuyama from the division headquarters, bringing radio equipment to the county seat, to investigate the disappearance of an enhanced class last time and the annihilation of a small team this time.

  This Matsumoto Taisa was a high-achieving graduate of the Japanese Army University, an extremely intelligent and cunning professional Japanese soldier in his fifties. His physique was sturdy and well-proportioned, with a somewhat elegant demeanor in his movements, which set him apart from those arrogant and domineering Japanese military officers, showing a calm and quiet temperament and style. If he hadn't taken the wrong side in the factional struggles within the Japanese military, he would have at least been a lieutenant general. Matsumoto worshipped ancient Chinese culture, had learned to speak Chinese since childhood, but despised modern Chinese people.

  Songshan knew the captain of the annihilated squad, and he knew that man was not ordinary. He shouldn't have been arranged to be beaten by the river without any common sense. After looking at the photos taken after the incident, he judged that the riverside was not the first scene, and the martyrs who died in battle were killed elsewhere and then transported here. The simplest basis is that there is no blood under their bodies. Then he led his elite special forces team, pulling his two large wolf dogs to search through nearby villages, hills, and highways.

  He finally settled down in Kao Shan town, pulling Yuan Bo to drink tea and chat, and stayed for three whole days. The team leader had been lurking around the periphery for several days but didn't dare to make a move because the special forces of Songshan's military were too strong. Each of them had two handguns, one Type 38 rifle, and every three people had a Type 96 light machine gun, while every five people had a grenade launcher. At that time, the Japanese army's newly developed Type 96 light machine gun in 1936 was very popular, with performance far better than the "crooked handle" machine gun, a range of 3600 meters, and a firing rate of 550 rounds per minute. It solved the problem of jamming and had advanced magazine feeding, with a full magazine holding 30 rounds of ammunition. When fired continuously, it was very powerful. At that time, only some were equipped in the Japanese army in Southeast Asia and the Kwantung Army. The guerrilla force encountering them was undoubtedly like an egg hitting a rock.

  On the third afternoon, Songshan, who had been patiently hunting, finally made a breakthrough. His large dog smelled the bloody smell at the root of the Yuan family's courtyard wall and guided Songshan to use a magnifying glass to discover the bullet holes on the courtyard wall that had been wiped clean. In the end, they even found unopened Japanese canned goods. But what was unexpected by Yuan Bo was that Songshan didn't make trouble for the village, but quietly and politely bid farewell and withdrew. This made Yuan Bo even more bewildered and uneasy.

  Zhan Biao learned about the situation when he came down the mountain to pick vegetables, this was the first time he heard the name Songshan. After analyzing with Xiao Feng, Cheng Yi and Liu Yang for a while, Zhan Biao immediately sent Da Yun down the mountain to inform Yuan Bo to evacuate the people. He also asked Da Yun to bring Xiaobao and Xiaoyu up the mountain. Xiaobao and Xiaoyu were surprised when they saw Da Yun coming to invite them, because several times they expressed their desire to go up the mountain but Zhan Biao did not agree, this time he took the initiative to send someone to invite them.

  Zhan Biao and Xiao Feng, Cheng Yi, San Dezi and others welcomed them at the entrance of the cave at the foot of the mountain in a very grand manner. Si De saw Xiaoyu coming and immediately rushed over to warmly greet her with affection. With a command from Zhan Biao, everyone stood up straight and paid their respects to Xiaobao and Xiaoyu. Zhan Biao smiled and said to Xiaobao: "Welcome, the two female knights, to our mountain."

  Xiao Bao hastily said: "Don't say that, we should have come up to help you with sewing and cooking long ago, but Biao Ge didn't allow it."

  Zhan Biao smiled and said: "Xiaobao, you want to enter the cave, but first you have to agree to one condition."

  Xiao Yu hastily said: "First tell me, don't think about making Xiao Bao sister marry you, and also want to enter the bridal chamber."

  Xiao Bao's face turned red with anger as she scolded and hit Xiao Yu: "You have a sharp tongue, wait until Da Shun Ge finds out, he won't let you off."

  Xiaoyu has recovered normally after more than half a month of recuperation, and under Xiaobao's guidance, she also felt that her old ideas were not appropriate. She regained her enthusiasm and warmth towards Dayue, and was more grateful and respectful towards Biao Ge.

  And Da Yu also felt Zhan Biao's integrity and righteousness through his daily contact with him, through Zhan Biao's past refusal to let Xiao Yu go up the mountain, and through his own initiative to come down the mountain to give himself and Xiao Yu a chance to meet.

  At this time, Cheng Yi spoke up: "Let me speak for Biao Ge, the condition is that Little Treasure Sister must teach us to learn culture!" During this period of time, one was busy practicing martial arts, and two was because Cheng Yi felt that the ink in his belly had been used up, so he put aside the matter of learning culture.

  Xiao Bao smiled easily and let out a slightly disappointed sigh, saying: "Teaching culture is no problem, but how can you call me sister? Am I not older than you?"

  Cheng Yi first made a gesture of being beaten and said: "If you don't call me sister, then call me aunt!" After that, he ran away.

  Everyone laughed happily, especially Da Yu, who laughed loudly, but suddenly stopped abruptly. It turned out that he had been pinched hard by Xiao Yu. Everyone understood the psychology of Da Yu: if Zhuang Biao and Xiao Bao were okay, then Xiao Yu would be even more secure as his own.

  Zhan Biao waved his hand, delighted that everyone was teasing him like this, which would be beneficial for Xiao Yu and Da Yuan's marriage. Xiaobao also blushed and exchanged a sly smile with Xiao Yu.

  It was unexpected for Xiaobao that Zhan Biao let her teach everyone cultural knowledge, which made her find her main position in the war of resistance. Although she joined the Communist Party, she was not good at fighting, mobilizing the masses, and she did not like to talk to strangers. At that time, organizations such as the Women's Relief Association had not yet been established, and the task of covering up Gui Secretary and Dan Team Leader had also been completed. The next step was unclear, and there were many people who joined the Communist Party but were idle due to various factors in the war. Zhan Biao's proposal made Xiaobao play her strengths, and in the process of teaching culture, she could also spread the Communist Party's propaganda against Japan. From then on, Xiaobao became a cultural instructor for Zhan Biao's National Army, Dan Team Leader's guerrilla team, and Tan Camp Chief's New Fourth Army, and more surprisingly, she even taught anti-Japanese lessons to Japanese soldiers. Later, after the victory of the war of resistance and during the Cultural Revolution, there was a considerable debate over whether Xiaobao's teaching of cultural knowledge to the National Army was doing divisive work or assisting the development of the Kuomintang.

  The villagers of Kaishan Town left in large numbers under the reminder of Zhan Biao, but after three days passed peacefully, some villagers returned one after another. On the fifth night, even Secretary Gui and Captain Shan led a district team of more than 60 people to camp in the village.

  On the sixth morning, which was also the day when the Japanese army annihilated a small squad for a whole month, Zhang Biao's speculation unfortunately came true. Major General Songshan commanded his own 50-man officer special forces and a battalion of over 250 Japanese soldiers to surround Kao Shan Town.
