"Mom, how could those people be bandits? If they were bandits, do you think they would keep me alive?" Chen Shangwen didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Aunt Xu remained silent.
Chen Shangwen continued, "And each of those people is very disciplined. If they were bandits, it would be impossible for them to do it."
"Awen, then you are on the Eighth Route Army. " Xiaoru said happily. To be honest, she felt uncomfortable listening to other people's gossip.
Now that Awen is on the eighth level, she feels no longer aggrieved.
"Don't tell anyone about this matter, otherwise, there will be danger." Chen Shangwen said, he is now an undercover agent of the Eighth Route Army. If others find out, his end will be tragic. .
"I know." Xiaoru nodded.
"The injury on your face doesn't matter." Aunt Xu's tone calmed down.
"I'm fine. By the way, mother, the Eighth Route Army will send people over in a few days to pick you up and take you to the base area, which is safer." Chen Shangwen said.
"We went to the base area, what about you?" Xiaoru asked.
"You are stupid, of course I will stay in the city. Only when you are safe can I work with peace of mind." Chen Shangwen said.
As long as his family is safe, he is willing to do anything.
"Then you are not in danger. I won't leave, and we will die together," Xiaoru said directly.
"Don't make trouble, bring up Xiaobao well. Nothing will happen to me, don't worry." Chen Shangwen said with a smile.
"But"
"Be obedient, or I will be angry." Chen Shangwen looked serious, as if he was about to get angry.
"Okay." Xiaoru could only nod.
"Go and see Xiaobao." Aunt Xu threw away the stick. She knew that Awen was doing it for their own good.
I don’t want my grandson to be called a traitor.
"Okay." Chen Shangwen nodded happily.
At noon.
Wujiacun.
Li Jin took He Chun and the others to gather at the entrance of the village, where many villagers had already gathered.
After seeing He Chun and the others, many villagers were curious about where these girls came from and why they were so young and good-looking.
The villagers were all discussing.
Li Jin stood in front, stretched out his hand and pressed down, and said, "Folks, please be quiet. I have called you here today. I have something to tell you.
I plan to set up a women's rescue association in the village. This women's association will help us Eighth Route Army soldiers make clothes or shoes. Of course, they will also teach you how to treat the wounded, read and so on,
and more There are so many things, I won’t give examples one by one
We will not let you work in vain, we will give you food. If anyone wants to join, then come to Deputy Platoon Leader Xu to sign up. , It’s all voluntary.”
As soon as he finished speaking, many women raised their hands to sign up, saying nothing more.Rice alone is enough for them to join.
For a time, Xu Qingfeng was surrounded by women, all wanting to sign up.
Seeing this situation, Li Jin was also stunned. He did not expect that so many people would join.
But things are developing for the better.
At this time, Village Chief Wu also came to Li Jin.
"Old village chief, thank you for gathering the villagers, otherwise I would have had to work hard." Li Jin said.
"Little problems are all my responsibility. Now Village Chief Song and Village Chief He are here." Village Chief Wu said.
"Okay, then I'll go see them." Li Jin said, just leave the matters here to Xu Qingfeng.
Soon, Li Jin went to Village Chief Wu’s house, and there were already two old people waiting in the yard.
"Village Chief Song, Chief He, long time no see." Li Jin greeted.
"Platoon Leader Li, long time no see." Two old village chiefs also greeted Li Jin.
"Let's all sit down." Li Jin sat down on the stool in the yard.
After a few people sat down, Li Jin said, "I'm calling you two here this time. There are two things. The first one is the issue of spring plowing. I heard that neither of your villages has it." Oxen plowing relies entirely on human power, right?"
"Indeed." The two old men nodded.
"I have recently seized six oxen, which I will lend to you for spring plowing." Li Jin said.
"That couldn't be better." Village Chief Song said happily.
"Yes, with scalpers, our village's harvest can be greatly improved." Village Chief He also smiled.
The land in their village used to be cultivated by manpower, so the harvest has never been ideal. Now that we have oxen, the harvest can at least double, and the people in the village don't have to use it as much. It's tough.
"For scalpers, considering the large population of Songjia Village, we will lend Songjia Village three cows, followed by two cows for Hejia Village, and for Wujia Village, because the village chief has one cow.
And a lot of land in the village has been cultivated, so one cow should be enough," Li Jin said.
"No problem." Village Chief Song nodded in agreement.
"I have no objection." Village Chief Wu also said, and Village Chief He had no objection either.
"Okay, then the next thing is the second thing. I plan to send people to your village tomorrow to recruit troops." Li Jin looked at Village Chief Song and Village Chief He.
"Are we going to recruit soldiers? That's good. Last time our village recruited less than ten soldiers. This time we have to recruit a few more." Village Chief Song said.
"Old Song, please come on, don't get the advantage and still be good. My village only recruited five people last time. Platoon Leader Li, no matter what, we must recruit more in our village this time." He The village chief said.
"Well, you two, please don't wait and listen to me. This time, I plan to recruit fifty people from each of your villages.
ThenI don’t want the only child, I don’t want anyone under sixteen, and I don’t want anyone over thirty-three.
So, I hope you two will be there to help me, and if you don’t meet the conditions, you can help me find them. . Platoon Leader Li said.
“Okay, no problem, we’ll take care of it.” "The two old men said.
"By the way, we must pay special attention to those who are only children. They must not be conscripted. We can't beat the Japanese to kill the villagers without any children or grandchildren, right? "Li Jin said.
"Indeed, we still need to leave one person to carry on the family line. " Village Chief Song said.
Village Chief He also nodded, then looked at Village Chief Wu and said, "I said, Old Wu, you are too cruel to your own grandchildren. Two of them died. If it's not enough, I have to send the last one to serve as a soldier.
If he dies on the battlefield, will you be worthy of your ancestors? "
"Don't worry about it. My grandson already has a son, and I am now the grandfather. "Village Chief Wu said proudly.
Some time ago, his grandson wrote back and said that he had given birth to a fat boy with a girl. If he hadn't been far away, he would have run over to see his great-grandson.
“Okay, Old Wu, I didn’t expect your grandson to be quite capable. "Village Chief Song laughed.
"Damn it, why do you sound so weird? "Village Chief Wu scolded. Please remember to bookmark it. The latest and fastest website can be read for free without anti-theft
