Chapter 8 Chapter Eight Aid to Changde

The curse-like misfortune has always tossed Yulan's stomach. She was pregnant twice in half a year, and she fell out within a month. No matter how careful she was, she couldn't keep it, like a loofah beaten by frost.Yulan couldn't wait to sew it up and wrap it around, lying still on the bed, but still couldn't stop the child from falling.The witch doctor is gone, and the witch doctors from other cottages are helpless.Lao Dan couldn't do his best, couldn't help, and had nothing to do but feel distressed.Ma Zimei guessed that the uterus was damaged, and she was already a habitual abortion, so it was basically hopeless to conceive a child.She didn't know where to get a strange cover, blushing and asked Lao Dan to use it, saying that it would save Miss Yulan from suffering.Severing this hope, Yulan cried for some days, resigned herself to her fate, and felt better instead.The Qiaoqiao brought by Lao Dan is very close to her, and seeing that she has grown up, she is called a godsister, and she really gets along like a daughter, which is somewhat of a consolation.Yulan knew that none of the children named "Danmi" in her dream would come, so she cherished the girl brought by this fate.After more than half a year, Lao Dan obediently used the strange plastic cover, but he couldn't play with it, he couldn't feel it, and he couldn't make it clear.But the usefulness of this thing is clear at a glance. It can't break two catties of water in your pocket, and you can fly a long way by blowing up a balloon.It took him a while to get used to it, knowing that this thing was not easy to come by, and thinking about how to thank this caring pockmarked girl.

There is no wind and waves in Huangjiachong, no disasters and no happiness, the surrounding villages are in decline, merged and merged, and civil strife, only Huangjiachong's incense is not lost, and gods and ghosts are not close.The old man Huang is well-known, but he lives in a secluded place. The mountains are full of legends about him, whether he is heroic or terrifying, and there is also a story about the second head of the family whose dick is longer than a donkey.Lu Jiachong was attacked by the quietly rising Dangjiachong, and if he couldn't beat him, he sent the third master to ask for help.The old man Huang hates the behavior of the Lu family's clumsy and soft-hearted bastards, but he can't tolerate the party family's half-gangster, half-red goblin appearance. Said he joined the Communist Party.The number one hooligan in a radius of 300 miles, who sleeps with a prostitute girl every month, actually showed his eyes under the banner of revolution.Mrs. Huang asked Lao Dan to lead the troops.Lao Dan originally had a burden, and was afraid that Ah Feng and the others would do it again. After asking, he found out that the party family rushed to recognize his father, and wanted to use this opportunity to expand.The Communist Party was so poor that no one wanted to see it. There was no improvement in Xiangtan, and one was bumped into him for no reason, and he was appointed an official in a hurry. The two sides probably haven't met each other yet.

"Hurry up and kill these things, the sooner the better." Old Man Huang said to Lao Dan. After a long time without using soldiers, the guns became heavy.The second son and his brothers packed up the weapons and fiddled with them for several nights. The inside of the machine gun was covered with moss, cute mushrooms sprouted from the grenades, and the mortar sparrows made a nest.Only the rifles were in good condition, because Da Xue wiped and used them one by one.Lao Dan picked out fifty elite soldiers, mules and donkeys, all fully dressed and ready to go.Zhu Tongtou's wife is about to give birth to a second child, and Lao Dan asks him to stay.The second son changed into a blood-red blindfold, saying they don't like red?I was scared to death when those fake red bandits saw it.

The second son's words inspired Lao Dan, so let's scare them.Lao Dan ordered Huang Jiachong's blacksmiths to forge more than fifty iron masks overnight, all of which were dyed red paint, and the group put them on on donkeys, scaring the bandits at the gate into thinking they had seen a ghost.Yulan gave a thumbs up and said that you Huang Jiachong's red-faced ghost soldiers scared the Communist Party to death.She stopped talking to Lao Dan about going to the battlefield together, and only asked his subordinates to be merciful and kill a few less.Lao Dan was very relieved, Yulan began to believe that blood should be paid with blood, she killed too many people, and finally hurt her own child.

The people from Lu's family led the way straight to Dangjiachong, and the old man Huang asked Lao Dan to surround Wei and rescue Zhao, and to pull out the roots first.Dangjiachong is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and the terrain is similar to Huangjiachong. This cottage has made a lot of money by selling tobacco and soil, and it has grown quite thick in the past two years.Lao Dan looked through the binoculars at the top of the mountain and knew that they were pure bandits. It was difficult to get into the mountains and fight them. If they were all in the cottage, it would be like stabbing a chicken coop.The defense of the cottage is full of loopholes, and the fortifications are so built that they cannot withstand a single shot.The two gun towers looked mighty, but they didn't want grenades and explosives to be dropped on the nearby mountain. They were basically coffins.The red flags fluttering all over the village, the formation is scary, but more than a hundred people from Dangjiachong are attacking Lujiachong, so there must be a fake inside.

Lao Dan and Chen Yuming studied the terrain, chose a dead corner in the southwest, and used a rope to go down at night, Erzi, Chen Yuming and a dozen others.Da Xue's old trick was repeated, lying on the top of the mountain and knocking down a few guards on the gun towers and the gate of the village without a sound. The fool in the blockhouse.Two machine guns were mounted on the gun tower facing the cottage.Lao Dan asked the bandit soldiers to put on masks and rushed into the party house.The second son was holding a machine gun, gearing up for the massacre, but the bandits were still fast asleep, and none of them came out.Lao Dan can't laugh or cry.The second son went all the way into the bedroom of the head of the party's family, Chong Da.The party boss is sleeping with two girls in his arms, each about thirteen or fourteen years old.Lao Dan asked someone to light the lamp, and packed the party boss who was sleeping in a muddy gag in a sack.The second son saw two beautiful girls lying in a row with their buttocks naked, and their eyes were straightened.Lao Dan saw that he was pitiful, so he brought everyone out and let the boy satisfy his greed inside.After more than ten minutes, the second son came out with a sigh, saying that the two little girls were crying, and they really couldn't get their dicks off.Lao Dan said, then you can take them back, wouldn't it be good to just become wives?The second son, however, knows righteousness, saying that we will become bandits, which will discredit Old Man Huang.Lao Dan said that he was pretending, no matter how small a woman is, she must have been tricked a long time ago, you want a golden girl.

Destroying Dangjiachong was done without bloodshed. Fifty elite soldiers occupied all parts of the village, and the Dangjiachong people were too frightened to come out.Dozens of party bandits left behind were tied up and thrown into the cave.Lao Dan asked his brothers to turn the party house upside down, take away all the valuables, seize the usable guns, blow up the gun tower, and burn all kinds of smoke and red flags.Lao Dan sent another gangster to Lujiachong to deliver a letter, and the Dangjiachong people should have run back as soon as they heard this.Lao Dan let everyone eat and clothe themselves warmly, control their dicks, and quietly waited for Dangjia Chong's second and third masters to come back with bandit soldiers.

After waiting for two days, the bandit soldiers hadn't come yet. Two Communist Party members came and said that they had made an appointment with the party leader Chongda to discuss the matter of incorporation.According to Lao Dan's method, the second son caught them and whipped them, stripped them naked, and drove them out of the mountain gate.The two unlucky ghosts ran away with their buttocks naked, saying that your party members are so treacherous, they are playing with us, and they will come to clean up you sooner or later.Hearing this, the second son cut off the two tongues, as long as people go back, it is useless to have these two more mouths.

The people from Dangjia Chong came back exhausted, but the second and third leaders could not open the door, and their noses were burning with anger.Lao Dan boarded the mountain gate and asked them to put down their weapons.The second leader was a reckless man, he was about to shoot him with a gun, a few sniper rifles smashed his head, and the third leader fell to his knees. Lao Dan returned to Huangjiachong with the party boss and the booty, and the old man Huang scolded the party boss in front of Lu Boss, saying that if you hook up with those red-hot things again, you will be wiped out, and if you dare to sell cigarettes, you will be wiped out you.The party boss said yes one by one, asking if he should pay tribute every year?Old man Huang generously waived it, saying that if you don't sell tobacco, your life may not be easy, let's talk about it in a few years.The party boss also said that your people beat the Communist Party, and they all thought I did it. What if their team comes to beat me in the future?Lao Dan spoke next to him: If you have this matter, you can come to me, don't bother the old man.Mrs. Huang nodded in agreement, and asked Lao Dan to return all their weapons and money.The boss of the party was grateful, and asked the second son in public if he wanted those two little girls?A whole room of people looked at the second son, the second son's face was as red as a monkey's back, and he said that if he wanted it, he would have asked for it long ago, you have accumulated a lot of virtue, let them find someone to marry.

The Dangjiachong battle ended successfully.At this time, it was late autumn, and Huang Jiachong was worn out in battle, and his weapons were outdated. Lao Dan proposed to take his brothers to the east, look for Er Yazi and Huang Ruigang in Changsha, and bring back some new guns, ammunition and medicines from the black market.The old man Huang nodded in agreement, and asked if he could take Yulan with him. The ghost hadn't had much movement in Changsha for a year when he was young, and Yulan was always stuck in the mountains, and everyone was listless.Lao Dan had this intention, but unexpectedly, Old Man Huang said it first.He hurriedly told Yulan and the brothers, and everyone was very happy.The second son said that this time, he must find a girl from Changsha, and it must be a girl of Huanghua. After so many years of holding back, he might as well marry both of them at once!

After not going out for more than a year, and her body no longer hard, Yulan felt a little dizzy on the mountain road, so Lao Dan led her donkey and they walked together, talking to her about cleaning up Dangjiachong.Yulan laughed when she heard this, and said that if she had been there, she would have seen the party boss sleeping with two young girls, and would have cut off his bastard with one knife. Changsha has become scorched earth, worse than that of Tongcheng.Yulan was amazed by the horror of the war, and she shed tears when she saw a large number of wounded soldiers and refugees.After living on the edge of Changsha city for a day, Chen Yuming and his second son found someone in just one day.Er Yazi became the platoon leader, and Huang Ruigang became an orderly for the battalion commander. Both boys have been raised strong and black, and their military prestige has already been demonstrated. After exchanging pleasantries, Lao Dan explained the purpose of his visit.Huang Ruigang said that you came at a good time. There are such a bunch of second-class traffickers in the local area. No matter how hard the battle is, they will not leave. Take it to the police.The second son was happy when he heard that, wouldn't it just be black and white?Dang Jia ate and vomited again, this will definitely eat him.Lao Dan said that would not work, and if they were arrested, the things would also be given to the government of the Republic of China.Huang Ruigang rubbed his head and said, that's not necessarily true, the battalion commander said, pulling out the radish and bringing out the mud, maybe it will be involved in the disgusting things of the garrison brigade or regiment chief, just destroy such a gang of vampires Yes, the cleaner the better. In this way, Lao Dan moved his heart, this is no different from beating bandits, and it is still a good deed, and it will not hurt his virtue.Lao Dan had a thorough discussion with Er Yazi and Huang Ruigang, they arrested people, Huang Jiachong took advantage of the fire to rob, did not kill or set fire, packed things and left, it was really a well-planned plan.The gang of second-hand traffickers were used to oil, and when they saw a company leader coming, they hurriedly grabbed the two leaders to give benefits, and asked if they had any more weapons to sell.The second boy who led the team tied up people without any explanation, and the dealers in a room beat up and crawled all over the floor, explaining the location of the warehouse. The warehouse is not far from the back of the house. Huang Ruigang took Lao Dan and others in military uniforms in. The carts and carts were moved clean. There were more than 20 carts of weapons and ammunition, medicine and food, as well as various equipment of the U.S. and Japanese troops. There are also three trucks hidden inside.As soon as Huang Rui handed over to Lao Dan, he led people to retreat.Lao Dan laughed so hard that his mouth cracked. The truck was full of weapons, ammunition, medicine and food, and the remaining useless equipment and supplies were set on fire.After leaving, the surrounding people flocked to the fire, and there was not a single board left in the fire.That's good, since it became looting by the common people, and the whereabouts of the stolen goods could no longer be found. Lao Dan and others drove to the residence, and returned after preparing to buy some more things.Huang Ruigang came again in plain clothes, saying that something happened during the interrogation, and a second-hand dealer said that some of the weapons and ammunition in it were bought by a unit of the 74th Army, because it was difficult to fulfill the promised things, and they bought them on the black market when they were in a hurry. Up.Lao Dan said what does that have to do with us?They deserve it.Huang Ruigang smacked his lips and said, "It's true, but I still want to tell you that the counterpart officer who bought this batch is Wang Lijiang, deputy commander of the 169th Regiment of the 57th Division of the 74th Army, your old friend." Now Lao Dan stared blankly, and for a moment of joy, he actually robbed his brother's private goods.Lao Dan scratched his head and thought for a while, walked around the room twice with his hands behind his back, and said to Huang Ruigang, "Please help me find out, where is brother Wang Lijiang?" When everyone heard that they were going to Changde with three big carts, they were both sad and happy.Lao Dan gave Huang Jiachong more than half of the car, and bought enough things for the cottage to survive the winter.After struggling for half a month, Yulan was in poor health, so Lao Dan asked Zhu Tongtou and Liang Qi to drive her back first. They sent the things to Changde and then returned to Huangjiachong. "You have to come back!" Yulan yelled, tugging at his ear. From Changsha to the northwest, and then through Yiyang, we walked 150 miles to Changde, known as the granary in central Hunan. The road was unimpeded, and troops intercepted them. Knowing that they were delivering weapons and ammunition to the 57th Division stationed in Changde, they let them go all the way.As soon as the car entered the city, Lao Dan felt that something was wrong. The people were fleeing, sandbags were piled up on the city wall, groups of bunkers were being repaired, and the firepower was as dense as a grave. Is there going to be a battle here? Wang Lijiang received a call from the guard at the south city gate, and when he learned that Lao Dan had arrived, he happily greeted him from afar.The division commander forced him to prepare weapons and ammunition, but the equipment department of the 74th Army was so stretched that it couldn't even provide a rifle.It's not intentional to make things difficult, but the 74th Army had already run out of ammunition and food in the last battle, and now the army commander Wang Yaowu is so poor that he is selling furniture, and the officials of the staff department still wear two different shoes. The headquarters of the 57th Division raised a sum of money, but had no place to buy guns and ammunition.Wang Lijiang and Chai Yixin, the head of the group, were so worried that they went to the Erdao dealer and gave the younger one half of the deposit. After more than half a month, there was no news. It was shipped, even the ocean was shipped back.When he learned what had happened, he patted Lao Dan on the shoulder and said that you are my living Bodhisattva, whenever I meet Kaner, you will definitely come to help me pass the test, I should catch more soldiers like you, it's worth it! "Do you know the latest international situation?" Wang Lijiang poured tea for him and his second son. Lao Dan shook his head and said, "What is the international situation?" "That's right... let's put it this way, you know that the Japanese devils are not only fighting the Republic of China, but also the United States and Britain, right?" Wang Lijiang poured himself a glass, sat down and took off his hat.Lao Dan nodded. "Japan, Germany, and Italy established a fascist alliance a few years ago. The relationship between wolves, embarrassments, and foxes is not a good thing. We have established an anti-fascist alliance with the United States, Britain, France and other countries. They are a group, and we are a group. , Do you understand?" Wang Lijiang used teacups as an example.Lao Dan nodded hurriedly. "Now this fascist alliance has begun to recite its words. Italy is over, the dictator Mussolini has stepped down, and the life of the Japanese devils is not easy. The Americans beat them badly in the Pacific Ocean, and their fleet The plane is about to hit the ground, do you know why the devils have not moved in China this year? Can’t move! Their backyard is on fire, and the Americans throw bombs at their house every day.” Wang Lijiang threw a piece of rock candy into the teacup , splashing water. "It's a good thing, then Changde..." Lao Dan pointed to the outside and said. "I'm about to talk about this... No matter what the reason is, it may be to cut off the connection between China and Southeast Asia, or it may be to solve the ninth war zone first. The devils have frequently deployed troops since September, tens of thousands of people. They Let’s deploy troops, let’s move accordingly, everyone is ready to fight, it seems that Changde is likely to be one of the battlefields.” "Let's fight when you come, there are so many troops in the ninth war zone, how many thousands of troops are you afraid of?" The second son said disdainfully. "The devils may invest hundreds of thousands of people, but our troops are too scattered. If there is a fight in Changde, there will be only one of our 57th divisions. There is a shortage of people and guns." Wang Lijiang sighed after he finished speaking. Lao Dan lowered his head, there was something in Wang Lijiang's words.The second son didn't say anything. "Is the pocket watch comfortable to use?" Wang Lijiang asked.Lao Dan hurriedly took it out and said, "It's such a waste to give me such a good watch that I can't count." "You old Dan, I haven't seen anyone who is better at numeracy than you. If someone else would drive here to deliver things? If you have this kind of feeling, you must have the courage!" Wang Lijiang patted Lao Dan and said .Lao Dan was embarrassed by what he said, and he wriggled in embarrassment. The sentence was persistently coming out of his stomach, but he stuck it firmly in his teeth. "You guys brought this cart this time. It's a timely delivery of charcoal. I can sleep well." Wang Lijiang asked about Lao Dan's life when the atmosphere became hardened.They talked and laughed again, and they wanted to have another drink, but the military order was strict and Wang Lijiang was very busy, so Lao Dan and his brothers drove back to Changsha.Before leaving, Wang Lijiang sent two packs of shredded tobacco, and told him that if he was still alive after the battle, he must go to Huangjiachong to see them, and to worship at the tomb of Gao Yu, the head of Mazi. The car left the city without talking all the way, Chen Yuming drove, and Lao Dan and the second son had their own concerns.The area between the two cities has become a wilderness, and in the distance there seem to be ghost planes circling high. "Brother Dan, what do you mean?" Er Zi stuck one foot out of the car window and asked him with his face turned. "I? It's meaningless..." Lao Dan muttered.Chen Yuming glanced at him in the rearview mirror, but said nothing. "It's all messed up, and my sister is gone." The second son sighed, "You all have a good life, how do you know the pain in my heart?" "Don't be a dick! Brothers, don't think too much, you can eat cabbage and radishes as soon as you bring them. How are you? If you insist on eating a thousand-year-old ginseng, you are as picky as you are. The bone spirit has become an old woman." Lao Dan said angrily. The second son fell silent and retracted his feet.Seeing his one-eyed looking out the window, Lao Dan didn't know what he was thinking, and was about to say something kind, but saw the second son pull the car door and jumped off. "Second son!" Lao Dan was shocked.Chen Yuming slammed on the brakes.Lao Dan jumped out of the car and saw that the second son had got up from the ground, his head and face were covered in mud, and the blindfold fell off his neck. He yelled at Lao Dan: "I'm not going back, I'm not going back... A lonely family, where is it not alive? Where is it not dead? Where can't I find a woman? No matter how good Huang Jiachong is, that is not my home, that is not my home! It is your home, it is Liang Qi's home, it is Hai Tao's home is Daxue's home, Yuming's home, or Zhu Tongtou's home, but that's not my home, I don't have a home, I don't have a home!" The second son burst into tears: "I use that telescope to see our Banzi Village... the moon is so clear, but I can't see Banzi Village, the old well, or my mother's grave..." Lao Dan stood there dumbfounded, and Er Zi's words scratched his heart and lungs, making his eyes suddenly sore. "Then what are you talking about? You said I'll do what you want." Lao Dan also shouted.The brothers all jumped out of the car and looked at the two brothers in a daze. "I... I won't go back, you guys go..." After Er Zi finished speaking, he walked back with his legs open.Lao Dan chased after a few steps, but Chen Yuming grabbed him. "Finish the fight early and go home early!" Erzi shouted without looking back. "Let him go, we have to go back to Huangjiachong first." Chen Yuming said. Lao Dan's tears streamed down, he quickly wiped them off, watching the second son swinging his arms and striding forward, his heart felt like a piece of flesh had been taken away. "Second son, find Wang Lijiang to settle down, and I'll find you when I come back!" Lao Dan yelled at him, but I don't know if he heard it. Back in Changsha, they left the cart and exchanged it for the mules and donkeys they stored, and rode back to Huangjiachong.The old man Huang praised Lao Dan's move, saying that you are more ruthless than the second in charge of spreading money all the way, and it is really right to promote you to be the second in charge. Lao Dan immediately went to see Yulan.She lay down when she came back, her fever was not severe, but she couldn't get up.Seeing that his smoking pot was old, Yulan used alcohol to make it look like a new one for him, and the big knife was wiped clean.She began to suspect that her body had collapsed after several miscarriages.Lao Dan told her the story of Banzi Village in a joking manner. In the previous generation, there was a woman from the Guo family, nicknamed the Thirteenth Aunt, who was a woman with a single leg. Entered the Daizi River.In eight years, this woman gave birth to twelve girls, all of them were born prematurely, and all of them were thrown into the river. Gu is the mother of Guo Erzi. Yulan laughed first and then was surprised when she heard that, only then did she realize that her second son hadn't come back.Lao Dan sat on the head of the bed and explained in detail what had happened.Yulan shrank into the quilt silently, only showing a haggard face. "You go, uncle is still waiting for you to drink." Yulan said weakly. Mr. Huang was not at the residence. Lao Dan asked someone and found out that he had gone to Erzi's hillside.Lao Dan hurriedly stepped on the slippery mountain road to look for it, and from a distance, he saw Mrs. Huang squatting in front of Er Zi's big telescope, squinting one eye, like a big toad. "It is said in the myth that there is a Guanghan Palace on the moon, and there lives a whore named Chang'e, who dances for the old Jade Emperor, and sighs on the moon when she has nothing to do." The old man Huang raised his head, "And A man named Wu Gang can do nothing but chop firewood. Ordinary people, they can’t even make up stories, so where is this going?” Lao Dan didn't know what he was going to say, so he came up and just stood aside, and when he looked up, the moon was round, no wonder the mountain road was so bright. "The moon of the Chinese is round, and so is the moon of the Japanese devils, but everyone only thinks that the moon in their own home is round, and that their home is the home. Erzi, Yulan, Huang Gui, and Lao Dan You, no one has escaped this bitch that grows in your bones." The old man Huang sighed rarely, took Lao Dan's arm and walked down the mountain, "When you didn't come back, Yulan was homesick." Lao Dan let out an ooh, and walked with him to Mrs. Huang's house.There the wine was set again.Chen Yuming sat upright, and when he saw them coming, he quickly stood up.Old Man Huang patted him on the shoulder and told him to sit down.Lao Dan already knew about the second son, and Old Man Huang must have known about it from Yuming. "How many years have you been in Huang's house?" Mrs. Huang asked Lao Dan. "Oh, it's been more than three years." Lao Dan said without thinking. "Brothers, except for you and the second son, all of them have given birth to a bunch." Old man Huang poured wine for them. Lao Dan touched his knees with both hands, blushed and said, "I'm fine, I'm fine, I just wronged my second son..." "I'm wronged? Shit! I'm wronged?" The old man Huang pointed at his lower body and stared, "It's been twelve years since I was shot, and I haven't touched a woman. It's not that I can't have sex, but I can't bear it. Sin. What is lacking in people is what is short, and you have to know it in your heart. Every day, you measure it with a ruler in your stomach, and you will cry when you see the moon, and you will be short-sighted in the end." The old man Huang and As soon as they touch it, it's done. "Who can compare to your old man? We country bumpkins don't forget to eat garlic even when we sit in the Golden Luan Hall. Even if I become a god, I can't live up to the old man's status." Lao Dan said respectfully.This is from the heart, the old man Huang has not touched women for more than ten years, and it is not strange, he cares for the women in the village very much.If he knew which gangster beat his wife, he would be scolded and slapped.But this man has a generous heart, and all the big things are sesame mung beans for him here. He never locks his door, and never worries about someone harming him. Most of them are used on the villagers.Other cottages are so poor that they don’t even have a horse, and a pig is eaten by hundreds of people, but Huang’s family has enough rice and food, meat and wine almost every day, and every family’s children are white and fat.Lao Dan really felt that this was a fairy day, but it was borrowed by himself, not his own.The better she and Yulan live, the more guilt she can't hide. "Chinese people are always afraid of leaving their hometown. If you leave home, you will lose your soul. In fact, what does that well, that water, and that land have to do with you? .My silly brothers, have a drink." The old man Huang poured the wine for the two of them again. When Old Man Huang said something, Lao Dan was quite moved, but he could understand some words but couldn't learn the truth.Yu Tea raised his glass and said, "Old man, the past few years in Huang Jiachong have been the most comfortable days in my life. Thank you for this glass of wine." He drank it after speaking. "How about one cup? Why do I need three cups?" Lao Dan booed from the side. "Then you'll have six cups..." Old Man Huang became sly.Lao Dan complained in his heart, but he had to answer it, gritted his teeth and drank it, and the moon in the sky doubled, and he immediately missed his second son. "Old man..." Lao Dan breathed out his alcohol and looked up at him, "Since I became a soldier, I have fought every battle for the country, but now that I think about it, it was mostly for the brothers, but what, The more battles fought, the more brothers there were. Although many died, many lived. Over the past few years, Huang Jiachong, I thought...that I could escape like this, but I don't like it, I say no Clearly, I can't sleep well, Er Zi, he is the only living companion among the thirty or so people who were arrested in our Banzi Village..." Mrs. Huang started stroking his belly again. The October mountain wind was hard, and he was so hot. Most people with a wide heart are hot. Lao Dan remembered what Mr. Yuan Bai said. "The second son always feels sorry for himself, but he doesn't know that being alone is the happiest thing in this troubled world. Lao Dan and Yu Ming, I know you don't want him, so go, the Huang family is here, I have everything." Huang Huang stood up Come on, dong dong dong walked to the edge of the moon.The mountain wind blew loudly, blowing the clouds to the other side of the mountain.Lao Dan saw Yu Tea's eyes wet while holding the glass, and was about to laugh at him when he heard his own tears falling into the wine glass. "Are you for your brother, or for going home?" Yulan asked softly at dawn.Knowing that Lao Dan was going to Changde, she just lay down with her eyes closed all night. Lao Dan was speechless, and swallowed countless reasons when they came to his lips. "If you can't have a baby, you won't be able to keep you." Yulan sat on the head of the bed, tears pouring down from the tears she had held back all night.Seeing her crying, Lao Dan had something to say, hugged and coaxed her, saying that as long as he could come back with his second son, he vowed to take her with him wherever he went. "If you go back to your Banzi Village, will you take me with you?" Yulan said, wiping her tears. "Take it, if you are willing to go, I will take it with you." "Didn't your wife skin you?" "Just peel it off, anyway, my skin is almost rotten, so I peeled off the new one." Lao Dan pushed forward smoothly, and he was surprised by Yulan's smooth temper now, "Tweety is a generalist, and can tolerate me. , can accommodate you too." "You bloody bumpkin, did you really make me small? Aren't you afraid that one day I will rebel against you?" Yulan pinched his leg. "If there is such a day, even if you turn the kang upside down, I will suffer..." Lao Dan's heart warmed up, and he touched Yulan's smooth shoulders, long arms, soft waist, and the silk dress made her feel like she was in the water. loach.Lao Dan felt that he was growing up, thickening, and jumping up, like an eel about to get into the mud of a rice field, like a snake circling around slippery bamboo.The magnolia in the morning is like azalea in full bloom, bright and moist everywhere.They went to a familiar place and heard spring bamboo shoots growing under the mud.The end of her is like a garden full of vegetables. The ripe watermelon, cucumber, loofah, and white melon have sweet juice, and the green shelves are covered with eggplant, persimmon, pepper, and gourd.He searched for secrets and spring water in this colorful garden.He saw Magnolia open its red mouth, its slender tongue like the tender heart of a cabbage.The ripe cherries on her breasts seemed to burst when she licked them, and her protruding breasts looked like plump sweet potatoes about to emerge from the ground.He wanted to drill deeper, like a sharp pickaxe moving, piercing deeper into the soil with each stroke; he was like a cowhide bellows whistling with red flames.Huo Miao licked Lao Dan in Yulan's body, could that thing be herself?What about the person holding the magnolia?Is it just a shadow in the wind?His fate was either related to it or to the gun, with which he measured the world, listened to the wind, shed tears, and bore all surprises and fears.Without it, he is nothing, he is just a light ant in the world, a rootless wormwood in the field.Sweat watered the land, and passion watered the woman. He knew that the blood he had shed must have stained something red and nourished something, which made him sleepless and the woman under him shed tears. "If you can't come back, I'll go find you." Yulan hugged him tightly and said, biting his ear. Chen Yuming notified the other brothers.The old man Huang issued an order to transfer fifty elite soldiers to Laodan's temperance and go to Changde together. Lao Dan was shocked by Huang's decision. These fifty people were almost half of Huang Jiachong's elite, including those brought back from Changsha by the second master. Almost all of them had their own unique skills. , and also understands the coordinated operations of the troops. This is a bandit soldier who is frightened by the news in every cottage, and can almost be counted as ten.But this is also the wealth of the old man Huang, and it will take many years to train such effective bandit soldiers. The men put down their hoes and sickles, put on their short combat jackets, and tied them with leather ropes.Bandit soldiers and Lao Dan's brothers were all equipped with donkeys, but Lao Dan rode a big black mule, which stood out.With tears in their eyes, the women packed their clothes, wiped off the dust from their knives and guns, and brought them enough shredded tobacco and bacon.Lao Dan thought that Huang Jiachong would have the same cries as in Banzi Village, but no, not a single sound. The soldiers lined up at the gate of the village, and the family members stood on the hillside and looked into the distance. They were quiet, as if seeing off a group of strange guests. "Hey! I said that this eye kept jumping for half a month, so it turned out that I was going to target devils again. Hunting rabbits and pheasants on the mountain every day is far worse than fucking devils." Liang Qi Jumping up and down with joy, Mazimei was tying something beside her.She insisted on going with her, at least as a military doctor, and Liang Qi couldn't do without her, he would have diarrhea if he wasn't there for three days.Both Lao Dan and Liang Qi couldn't resist her, so they could only take her with them. Daxue got on the donkey alone with a gun, leaving his wife and children at home.He pointed to Lao Dan halfway up the mountain, Lao Dan looked over and saw Zhu Tongtou running down with big bags and small bags. "Bronzehead brother, have you changed your mind?" "Hai Tao, don't blame me, I'm blind, marrying her is bad luck for eight lifetimes..." Zhu Tongtou was furious, with a big slap mark on his flushed face. "Brother Tongtou, don't say that. It's interesting enough for Xiao Zhen to have a baby with you in this ravine. Isn't she crying and yelling because she's afraid that something will happen to you? My family, hey! Didn't even respond , You can do whatever you want, you don’t take me seriously, I’m still angry!" Haitao helped Zhu Tongtou carry the burden. "Tongtou, what Haitao said is right, I'll give you another chance to regret it." Lao Dan smiled with his hands behind his back. "I won't go, who will entertain you?" Zhu Tongtou grabbed the rein and climbed up, gaining twenty catties of fat, he couldn't even move his legs up.Daxue went over to the donkey and picked him up by the collar, and lifted him onto the donkey's back.Da Xue grumbled and gestured for a long time, everyone laughed again, and Lao Dan understood what he meant.What Daxue said was: Take him with you, he can be used as a sack to some extent. They were preparing to leave early in the morning, but Yulan never showed up. Lao Dan guessed that she was hiding in the house and getting dressed, but half an hour passed, and she still didn't come out.Just as she was about to be searched for, she was seen coming down with a small cage, followed by a little sex bandit in full gear.Sure enough, Magnolia made it look like a fairy, with flowers, painted colors, combed her hair in a bun, and wore brand new red shoes.There are three skinny pigeons in the small cage. Yulan said that these things are called carrier pigeons. On the pigeon's legs, it will fly all the way to Huang Jiachong, and fly to another cage in front of the house.Lao Dan was surprised when he heard this, but he thought in his heart that he had known this thing earlier, so he would have taken more than a dozen of them when he left Banzi Village. "The little sex bandit will follow you. I gave him the power. If you dare to touch any woman, you will be shot immediately." Yulan made a gun with her fingers and pushed Lao Dan on the stomach.The little sex bandit smirked, with his canine teeth protruding all over his mouth.This is a good boy who is only eighteen years old. He is loyal to Yulan. He is both a punching bag and a trash can, but the most important thing. , Accompanying her all the way to the bridal chamber.The little sex bandit saluted Yulan, and got on the donkey. Lao Dan knew that he could only tie him to the waistband of his trousers for the journey. The sun lazily rolled over the hills, shining brightly.It was a rare sunny day, and Huang Jiachong was emitting the last mist like a steamer about to burn dry.Villagers all over the mountain helped the old and the young come out, and they gathered on the hillsides on both sides of the cottage gate.The women were chattering and looking around in groups, while the men were wearing scarves, standing or squatting, and the hookah pipes were rattling, like crows changing branches in their nests in spring.Everyone waited happily. Lao Dan and other fifty-seven people rushed to Changde, which was a feat of a hundred years.Huang Jiachong did not lack blood and tears, nor did he lack heroes who emerged one after another.Men who are over fifty years old hide their own heroic past, or kill bandits, or fight with weapons, or wrestle with ferocious beasts.The years have worn away the scars and calluses on their bodies, but they have not worn away their natural arrogance.The old people in Chongli often take their children into the mountains to catch snakes with bare hands, hunt wild animals, walk on charcoal piles and step on knives.They remind and spur future generations in various ways, telling them that if the heart is fearless, everything is fearless.Seeing the grown-up youngsters leave their hometowns and continue to write the legend of Huang Jiachong, they are not sad, and their hearts are as hot as the rising sun. The sun is shining everywhere, and the valley is red, as if the dyed fresh cotton wadding is full of warmth.山坡上人声嘈杂，星星点点的烟袋锅子冒出青色的细烟。老人咳嗽着，娃子哭喊着，女人哄着孩子，男人们肆无忌惮地放着屁，被人群惊得回不了窝的鸟雀鸣叫着。这些声响在山谷中交织起来，使老旦突地想起板子村春播时的祭祀。神圣感油然而生，他觉得像要回家一样，可又不舍得，这客居多年的异乡，竟也如此留恋了。 黄家冲几乎出尽精挑细选的驴，这就是一支骑兵了。他们整齐地背着枪，左腰插着盒子炮，黄家冲特有的长刀和枪反插着。身后是鼓鼓的行囊，那是女人们一夜的心血。老旦一行七人戎装在身，刀枪一挂更是威武，磨得发毛的武装带一扎，满山坡的人都眼前一亮。就连朱铜头都招摇起来，小甄妹子连夜改了衣服尺寸，又宽又大，让他居然像半个将军。梁七悄悄告诉老旦，昨个后半夜铜头和小甄一炮干到天亮，他们家的两只驴饿得嗷嗷直叫…… 骑兵排成两列出了寨门，黄老倌子带着五十多个老兵匪列在村口。老兵们全副武装，腰刀斜挎，列在两旁纹丝不动。黄老倌子居然破天荒地穿上了雪藏多年的中校军服，那衣服笔挺地贴在身上，显然经过村里裁缝的妙手。崭新的军帽不知哪弄来的，泛着油油的绿光，将一双犀利的虎目衬出不怒自威的神采。玉兰又披了一条红裘，白袜红鞋，发髻高高地挽着，像要出嫁的新娘子，只是腰上挎了吓人的双枪……她又开始这样了，她不管什么样老旦都喜欢，有一天她光着屁股挎着双枪，在他身上骑着马，放着枪，子弹穿过屋顶，击碎一块块瓦片，弹壳烫着老旦的前胸和脸庞，老旦被她的疯吓着了。他身后备着长长的条案，上面自是烈酒横陈，几排海碗满得要溢出来，旁边还有巨大一盆的辣椒，红艳艳地冒着尖儿。 老旦一摆手，陈玉茗吼起长长的号令，骑兵哗啦就站住了。老旦下了骡子，给黄老倌子敬了这几年最标准的军礼。老爷子神情恭肃地回敬了，转身接过玉兰递过来的一碗碗酒。老旦是第一碗。酒是热的，辣的，涩的，火一样的。老旦捧着它一饮而尽，大早晨喝这么一碗，浑身都像点着了。玉兰只看着他，对他从头到脚微笑着。黄老倌子给每个匪兵端了酒，看着他们喝得一滴不剩，那每一张脸都烧得红了。 “在家靠我，出门靠身边的弟兄！离开这黄家冲，天大的事任你们去折腾。战场上生死有命，回得来的，回不来的，都给我和你们的爹娘有个说法。黄家冲的男人没有孬种，只有威震八方、顶天立地的汉子！既然要走，要去打天下，就打个样子出来，不准在鬼子面前栽了威风，也不能在部队里栽了面子。喝了这酒，再吃下这辣椒子，记住生养你们这帮崽子的黄家冲的乡亲们！” 黄老倌子大手一挥，那盆辣椒便端过来。匪兵们抓起辣椒扔进嘴里大嚼，吃得真不含糊，一捧一捧地吃，咔嚓咔嚓地咬。老旦七人也早就历练出来，却仍不敢这个吃法。老旦只拿起盆底几根慢慢地嚼着，黄家冲人一碗辣椒可以就下半斤酒，吃饭可以没酒，却少不了辣椒。黄家冲夹沟里的辣椒细长香辣，在方圆百里都有名气。老旦见匪兵们将辣椒吃得一根不剩，一个个辣得涕泪横流，心里涌上同样的热，见玉兰始终盯着他看，忙打两个哈欠掩饰过去。 “有事儿就放鸽子，没事儿也放鸽子，反正我天天等着……”玉兰轻轻地说。 老旦点着头，绷着股奇怪的劲看着黄老倌子。 “上驴！” 陈玉茗下了令，众匪兵咬着牙吸着凉气，一个个翻身上驴。山坡上的乡亲们聚拢下来，向他们挥手告别。有人开始哭泣，也有人哈哈大笑着。林子远处有人清了清干涩的嗓子，高声颂道： “操吴戈兮披犀甲，车错毂兮短兵接。 旌蔽日兮敌若云，矢交坠兮士争先。 凌余阵兮躐余行，左骖殪兮右刃伤。 霾两轮兮絷四马，援玉枹兮击鸣鼓。 天时怼兮威灵怒，严杀尽兮弃原野。 出不入兮往不反，平原忽兮路超远。 带长剑兮挟秦弓，首身离兮心不惩。 诚既勇兮又以武，终刚强兮不可凌。 身既死兮神以灵，子魂魄兮为鬼雄！ ..." 老旦抬头望去，却只看见山巅那棵半截大树下一个瘦长的身影，在朝阳下披金戴甲，犹如一员天地之间的战将，那是了不起的黄老举人，是年轻时斩关夺旗双枪如神的黄老举人。老人的声音高亢凝重，撩云而上，在他庄重的颂别中，黄老倌子对着远去的马队敬着礼，山寨的钢炮崩然响起，如雷的炮声震得竹林抖瑟，大山动容，间或有山坡上的女人哭成一片的声音。匪兵们纵马前行，马蹄踢着火星，老旦回望黄家冲熟悉的清晨，想起了离开板子村的时候……
