Chapter 15 Chapter Twelve

Despite walking tens of miles of mountain roads during the day and going through several tosses, Li Hanzhang was still unable to fall asleep lying on a hard bed made of several planks. Following Huo Jinshou's "inspection" just now, Li Hanzhang really felt the excellent advantage of Tonggu Village, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack.However, in the current situation, he knows clearly that this is just an "isolated island" that the Communist Party has not touched for the time being.Red flags have been planted all over the surrounding area. Even if this Tonggu village is Sun Houzi's Huaguo Mountain, it will be slapped under the Five Elements Mountain by the Tathagata Buddha's big palm sooner or later.Right now, because he believes the idiot's dreamlike news from the Taiwan headquarters, Huo Jinshou doesn't know the heights of the heavens and the earth, and speaks wild words, unexpectedly ignoring Li Desheng from the second field of the Communist Army.

Lying on a wooden bed, Li Hanzhang slowly found bits and pieces of information about Li Desheng from his memory: he was from Guangshan, Henan. He has experienced many battles.During the Anti-Japanese War, he successively served as company commander, battalion commander, and regiment commander. He participated in the battle to open up base areas and participated in the "Hundred Regiment War". He is already a brave general.After the start of the civil war, Shangdang, Handan, the Battle of Southwest Shandong, the Battle of Xiangfan and the Battle of Huaihai were fought all the way, from platoon leader, company commander, brigade commander, and division commander.He is a typical Henan man who dared to fight hard and vicious battles. He followed Liu Deng's troops thousands of miles into the Dabie Mountains, and then fought all the way to the Southwest.

Therefore, even though Huo Jinshou had a fortified stronghold with high mountains and dangerous roads, he was really overwhelmed by the fact that he wanted to be an enemy of Li Desheng with only eight or nine hundred people.Li Hanzhang thought over and over for half the night, and finally, he came to a conclusion in his heart: Huo Jinshou, Commander Huo, no matter how strong your city is, you will still hit Li Desheng with an egg. Li Hanzhang was tossing and turning on the hard bed, when he suddenly heard a "gudong" sound outside the door, he immediately sat up on the bed and asked, "Who?"

"Report, sir, I was ordered to stand guard for you. Just now... just now, I accidentally fell asleep and fell over. Please punish me, sir!" Wang Dafu replied outside the door. "Oh, it's Big Brother Wang. It's cold, let's get warmer in the house." Hearing Wang Dafu's voice, Li Hanzhang suddenly remembered that there was still a mystery to be solved. Let's figure it out. "Sir, how can I be worthy of calling you big brother? I was ordered by Captain Zhu to serve you and stand guard at night. I dare not be lazy!" "Come in if I let you in. Since Captain Zhu ordered you to serve me, why would you serve me if you don't come in?" Li Hanzhang said, put on his clothes, stood up and opened the door, and saw Wang Dafu like a wooden stake The same was poked at the door, but the handle was replaced with a Hanyang-made rifle, which was carried on the back, and the stab was a bit higher than his head.

"Then... the little one... came in. Commander, you are not only highly skilled in martial arts, but also a good person. Chen Jiacai and I are so blind that we want to rob you." Before Li Hanzhang asked, Wang Dafu himself talked about this matter.Li Hanzhang took the opportunity to get off the donkey and asked, "Dafu, how long have you been working with Commander Huo? Do you usually perform this kind of tasks?" Wang Dafu entered the house, held the gun in his arms, put half of his buttocks on a rough wooden chair, and replied: "Report sir, the little one has no father, mother, or wife, and he didn't have much cooking skills. He was working as a day laborer in the village to earn a living. Before Commander Huo joined the Communist Party, he was arrested as a young man..."

"Commander Huo voted for the Communist Party?" Li Hanzhang was surprised when he heard Wang Dafu's words. "Yes. Commander Huo turned out to be the commander of the 4th Battalion of the 43rd Regiment of the 15th Division of the Fifth Army of the Anti-Communist and Civil Protection Army. I was the young man who was arrested at that time. When the Communist Army attacked Rongchang County, the 43rd Regiment was broken up. Surrendered. Within a few days, he felt that the Communist Army had poor food and strict discipline, so he took his brothers and fled overnight, ran to the Tonggu Village, beat off the bandits here, and became the commander himself."

It turns out that this Huo Jinshou, like Lu Bu in Three Kingdoms, is an impermanent villain.After hearing this, Li Hanzhang continued to ask calmly: "I saw that Commander Huo's headquarters has a radio station and a generator. Where did he get such advanced things?" "Report sir, when he fled from the communist army, he took the two transmitters of the 43rd Regiment along with the radio station and the generator. He said at the time that this thing is very useful. With that thing , you can contact Chairman Chiang directly." "Oh, that's it...you haven't answered what I just asked you. Dafu, what tasks do you usually perform?" Li Hanzhang was still thinking about the question he wanted to understand.

"Usually, I have nothing to do. I just stand guard on the mountain with my brothers, secretly drinking and gambling. Commander Huo said that Generalissimo Jiang is going to counterattack the mainland soon, and we will all be promoted and get rich by then! Sir, Huo Is there any truth to what the commander said?" It seems that even this Wang Dafu can't believe Huo Jinshou's words.Li Hanzhang smiled to himself, intending to continue to confuse Wang Dafu on the questions he wanted to know. Li Hanzhang glanced at Wang Dafu, and suddenly asked: "Since you are usually on the mountain, why did you run so far today, and rob money and murder with Chen Jiacai?"

When Wang Dafu heard this, he was terrified, and quickly threw Han Yangzoo in his arms, and knelt down on the ground with a "gudong", and slapped himself: "Damn it, you have eyes but don't know Mount Tai. The small ones are under the control of Captain Zhu Biao. A few days ago, Commander Huo ordered all the brigades to send people down the mountain to get money, saying that it was to buy guns and cannons. Captain Zhu ordered me and Chen Jiacai to Go to his hometown to 'knock a big family'. We knocked on a rich master on the way, and got more than 300,000 yuan in banknotes issued by the Communist Army. Shen Jianzhang is Chen Jiacai's distant cousin. We know that he is a People who are not short of money, when they hear that he has returned home, they come to borrow money. Chen Jiacai doesn’t believe in borrowing so much money at once. Zhang Zhang said that he met a person who was so generous that he didn’t take the money as money. Rich boss. He borrowed money this time to earn silver dollars. When he earns the silver dollars, he will give Chen Jiacai 20% of the benefits. I told you. We were thinking about how to get more big households to go up the mountain to receive rewards. When we heard God’s words, we came to the door when we knew something good, so we lent the Communist Army banknotes we knocked to God. , and agreed to give 20% interest when repaying the money. Then, we quietly followed God to cut the paper and hid it in his woodshed. The next morning, I saw you exchanged four pieces of cash for a few rags, and I thought to myself , Now I really bumped into a rich man, and the opportunity to make a fortune has come. So, I left Liquan Temple in advance and waited for you halfway..."

Wang Dafu honestly told Li Hanzhang how he got the news of "Boss Zhou" in Liquan Temple. Li Hanzhang heard Wang Dafu's words, pulled him up from the ground, and continued to ask calmly: "Then from Liquan Temple to Tonggu Mountain, you have traveled seventy or eighty miles all the way, and you both have guys in your hands. Why didn't you make a move after walking so far?" "Thank you, sir, thank you, sir," Wang Dafu continued, rubbing his knees and standing there with his waist bowed, "You don't know, sir, let alone from Liquan Temple to Tonggu Mountain, it is the whole Rongchang County. Commander Huo's eyeliner. I'm not afraid that the officer will blame me..." When Wang Dafu said this, he suddenly looked at Li Hanzhang nervously and remained silent.

"Continue talking. Now that we are all on our own, what else is there to say?" Li Hanzhang urged him. Wang Dafu wiped the sweat from his brow, and then he said hesitantly: "On the way, Chen Jiacai saw that you were clearly called 'Zhou Yaozu', but suddenly changed your name to 'Zhang Ziqiang', and became suspicious. Through the eyeliner along the way, Reported to the mountain. Captain Zhu suspected that you were a spy of the communist army, and ordered us to lead you to Tonggu Mountain and confirm your identity after arresting you. We knew on the way that you must have a lot of gold in your back The silver is thin and soft, not to mention anything else, just the banknotes exchanged at Shenjianzhang is worth the two of us. Chen Jiacai originally suggested that he would fight with me halfway, after grabbing your back strap, I won’t go back to Tonggu Mountain anymore, I’ll hide in a place where no one can find me, and after the limelight passes, I’ll come out to eat and drink spicy food...the result...the result..." "What's the result? Say it!" Li Hanzhang saw that he was stuck again, and he couldn't bear to hear it, so he yelled sharply. Wang Dafu was taken aback, saluted with a "snap", and then said: "Report to the officer: Just when we were about to strike on the way, Captain Zhu seemed to have clairvoyance, and he asked the eyeliner on the road to warn us. , I want us to take you to Tonggu Mountain honestly, otherwise, both of us may lose our heads on the way at any time! We have no choice but to follow you. When we arrived at the entrance of the north gate of Tonggu Mountain, Chen Jiacai couldn't bear it. I couldn't hold it any longer, so I whispered to me that this is the last chance. Once we got up the mountain, our dream of getting rich would be over. So, we made a move as soon as we entered the mountain pass. Who knew that we were blind, and actually The robbery is on your head, sir...the rest...you know it all...sir, the little one deserves to die! I've finished talking, please punish me, sir!" Hearing this, Li Hanzhang finally understood that he bumped into Huo Jinshou's territory by accident, and was almost murdered by someone on the way.It seems that I have to be careful about this in the future.Thinking of this, he stared at Wang Dafu and said, "Dafu, it's all over. Who wouldn't want to get promoted and get rich? Besides, you are following orders, and those bad ideas of seeking wealth and killing your life are not yours. out." "That's right, the officer has a good eye. It's all the crooked idea of ​​that son of a bitch, Chen Jiacai. It's also because of his carelessness. He almost committed a capital crime with him." When Wang Dafu heard that Li Hanzhang not only did not pursue him, but also Excuse yourself, and quickly flatter. Seeing that Li Hanzhang handed him a cigarette, Wang Dafu took it with trepidation. After lighting it, he smoked half of it in one gulp, "Hehe...sir, it's better to smoke foreign cigarettes. It smells better! It's better than dry tobacco It's much more comfortable." He stretched his neck and took another big mouthful while talking. Seeing his greedy look, Li Hanzhang simply took out a pack of "Hardman" from his pocket, threw it to him and said, "If you think it's good to smoke, take it all." "Hehe...sir, you are such a good man." Wang Dafu said while carefully putting away the bag of "Hadman", "Captain Zhu ordered the little servant to serve you, sir, what do you order, the little one is so confused , both sides of the ribs!" "Okay! Brother is a real person, enough friends!" Li Hanzhang stood up, patted Wang Dafu on the shoulder and said, "Although I am your chief, I like to make friends the most. You have also seen that even Commander Huo has to make friends." Listen to me, and give me the position of the commander. To tell you the truth, I am much bigger than his officer! What is a pack of foreign cigarettes? I have plenty of oceans and renminbi in my backpack. Since Captain Zhu I sent you to follow me, and from now on, you will be my adjutant." "Thank you, sir, for your cultivation, thank you, sir, for your cultivation!" Wang Dafu's legs softened, and he knelt down again with a "plop", "Sir, I think highly of the little ones, and the little ones are willing to be saddled and smashed to pieces for you!" "That's good. Adjutant Wang, I may leave here tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow at the latest, to go to Dazu to carry out an important task personally assigned by Generalissimo Jiang. When I go down the mountain, you will go with me. When the task is completed, we will go together Go to Taiwan, and Generalissimo Jiang will personally issue you a letter of appointment!" Li Hanzhang subconsciously felt that the Tonggu Mountain was full of dangers, and he needed a helper, even if it was not a clever helper, it was better than none. "Yes! Commander! From now on, the little one is yours, and only the commander's order will be obeyed!" Wang Dafu got up from the ground, and gave Li Hanzhang a military salute with a "slap". "Okay, okay, it's getting late, and it's almost dawn. This Tonggu Mountain is as solid as gold, so why do you need to stand on a post? You should go to rest early." Li Hanzhang finished all the things that needed to be understood and done. , and sent Wang Dafu away. There is no wind in Tonggu Mountain on a winter night, but the sound of patrolling footsteps outside the door and the noise of soldiers gathering to gamble make Li Hanzhang feel that there are murderous intentions surging everywhere in the ancient trees all over the mountain... The next day, before dawn, Li Hanzhang woke up.In fact, he was awake all night, and he didn't sleep well at all. It's better to say he woke up than get up. After Wang Dafu left last night, Li Hanzhang rethought the things before and after he went to Tonggu Mountain. It seemed that the whole situation had been clarified, but he was not at ease, because he found a new problem: dinner Later, when Huo Jinshou accompanied him to "inspect" Tonggu Village, Zhu Biao hurried over with Li Xuan's telegram. What did the two of them say in the dark?Relying on his intuition and years of experience in spy work, Li Hanzhang deduced that the urgent telegram that Li Xun sent to Huo Jinshou from the Yunnan-Myanmar border must have something to do with him!However, regardless of whether the telegram has anything to do with him or not, since Tonggu Mountain has been surrounded by Li Desheng's 35th Division, it is definitely not a place to stay for a long time... After deliberation, Li Hanzhang finally decided: he must find a way to leave here as soon as possible. Wang Dafu probably heard the movement outside the door, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Sir, are you awake?" "Oh, Adjutant Wang, come in." Li Hanzhang replied in the room. As soon as Wang Dafu entered the door with an iron basin filled with warm water and covered with a cotton towel, he said to Li Hanzhang mysteriously: "Sir, I have an important report..." Unexpectedly, just after he finished speaking, there was a sound of chaotic footsteps outside the door. Li Hanzhang raised his eyes and saw that it was Huo Jinshou, followed by Zhu Biao.Wang Dafu swallowed back the second half of the sentence, silently put the water basin on a stool in front of Li Hanzhang, glanced at the three officers in the room in panic, bowed and retreated. "Good morning, Director Li! Last night, in this barren village, did you rest well?" When Huo Jinshou greeted him, he seemed to be a different person from last night after drinking. "Good morning, Commander Huo. It's okay, it's okay. On this cottage, there is both the arrogance of 'will be the top of the mountain' and the freedom of 'seeing Nanshan leisurely'. I haven't been so comfortable for a long time." After getting up, Huo Jinshou came in. Although Li Hanzhang was very surprised, he still dealt with it, seeing what he had to say when he came so early. "Director Li, since you feel so comfortable in Xiaozhai, you should stay here for the great cause of the party and the country. You gave in to the commander of the column, and I can explain to Commander Li." Huo Jinshou didn't wait for Li Hanzhang to give up his seat. Sitting down on the chair beside the bed, he began to repeat the old tune again. "Commander Huo, what should be said and what should not be said, Li has already said it yesterday. There is no need to discuss this topic between us, right?" Li Hanzhang answered Huo Jinshou while washing his face. "The humble job really sincerely hopes that Director Li can stay here and lead everyone to prosper and recover the great cause!" Huo Jinshou said, took out a cigarette, lit it, took a puff, and puffed out the smoke ring. "Commander Huo, you've seen it too. How did I call back Commander-in-Chief Li Xunli yesterday? Li really has important business to attend to, so he can't stay here for too long. If there is a chance, wait until I finish this trip. I will definitely come back and conspire with Commander Huo to plan the prosperity of Tonggu Mountain. So, what do you think?" Li Hanzhang put a cotton towel on the edge of the iron basin, sat down on the bedside far away from Huo Jinshou, took out a cigarette, and lit it. After that, he took a deep breath. "Conspiracy? I'm afraid Director Li won't come back after leaving?" Zhu Biao, who had been standing beside Huo Jinshou, suddenly interjected. Li Hanzhang glanced at him, but said nothing. "Shut up! I'm talking to Director Li, why are you interrupting?" Huo Jinshou glared at Zhu Biao, then turned to look at Li Hanzhang and said, "It seems that Xiaozhai really can't keep Director Li anymore?" "Thanks to Commander Huo's kindness, Li never forgets it. Unfortunately, I have to go to Dazu as soon as possible because of official duties." Li Hanzhang took a puff of his cigarette and flicked the ash.At this time, his tone of voice was beyond doubt. "Business is important, business is important. Since Director Li is determined to leave, and it's not convenient to stay in a humble position, I'll make arrangements to send Director Li on the road today, do you want it?" Huo Jinshou stood up while talking. "Yes, yes. Li is very grateful to Commander Huo for his kindness!" Li Hanzhang secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Huo Jinshou was going to let him go down the mountain. "Then please invite Director Li to have breakfast. After breakfast, I will personally send Director Li down the mountain. Captain Zhu, please go and make arrangements. Make sure that the arrangements are properly made to satisfy Director Li!" Huo Jinshou said, standing up, pointing his fingertips He opened the door and made a "please" gesture. In the headquarters, Huo Jinshou had just had breakfast with Li Hanzhang, when Zhu Biao led someone to bring Li Hanzhang's shoulder bag over, put it in front of Li Hanzhang and said, "Please check, Mr. Li, are you missing anything?" Li Hanzhang smiled, bowed and put his hand into the back strap. This action of Li Hanzhang was beyond the expectation of everyone present: Zhu Biao asked him to check, but it was just a courtesy, if he really checked, it would show that he did not trust this group of people, and he did not intend to give them face. Huo Jinshou's face was livid, Zhu Biao's hands were slowly being squeezed... Unexpectedly, Li Hanzhang put his hand into the back strap, and suddenly took out a big belly box from it! Huo Jinshou and Zhu Biao turned pale with shock, stood up abruptly, and pulled out the pistols in their respective waists with a "swish". "Hahahaha..." Li Hanzhang held the barrel of the big-bellied box, pointed the gun at Huo Jinshou, and said with a big smile, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't explain clearly, which surprised you two. This is Zhu Biao's. I have kept Chen Jiacai's weapon for him for a day, and now I am leaving, and it will be returned to the original owner, so I ask the two of you to accept it for him." Li Hanzhang laughed, and there was another meaning, because when he took the big belly box from the back strap, he found that everything in the back strap was intact. "Oh, I made Director Li laugh. I'm ashamed..." Huo Jinshou put away his gun with one hand, and took Chen Jiacai's cannon with the other. "This subordinate is incompetent, and Director Li laughed." Li Hanzhang said perfunctorily: "Where is it? I traveled seventy or eighty miles with Chen Jiacai and Wang Dafu. According to my observation, Chen Jiacai's brain is still very smart. As long as it is well trained, it is still a good material." "What about Wang Dafu? Chief Li thinks he's a good material, right? Otherwise, why would he be your adjutant?" Zhu Biao also put away his gun, staring at Li Hanzhang and asking. When Li Hanzhang saw Zhu Biao's eyes, he understood everything. He laughed and said, "Hahahaha...Li can't think of it! I just feel lonely and bored at night, so I chatted with Wang Dafu, just made a joke and said to block him For my adjutant, I never expected to be watched by you, Zhu Biao! The surname is Zhu, what do you mean?" Huo Jinshou was stunned for a moment, and immediately asked Zhu Biao sternly: "Zhu Biao, is what Director Li said true?" "How dare you have a humble job? How dare you have a humble job. In the morning, Wang Dafu took the bag of 'Hardman' you rewarded him, and scattered cigarettes everywhere to entertain guests, claiming that he was already an 'Adjutant Wang'. I was very surprised. After careful questioning, I found out Overnight, Director Li, you promoted him to be an adjutant. What kind of smoke is rising from this kid's ancestral grave, where did he get such a blessing?" Zhu Biao hurriedly argued, his face flushed. "That's good, there's no joke in the army. Where's my Adjutant Wang?" Li Hanzhang saw that Zhu Biao's words were impeccable, so he simply asked him for someone! Huo Jinshou immediately shouted outside the headquarters: "Notify Wang Dafu, report to the headquarters immediately!" Li Hanzhang noticed that Zhu Biao's face was as ugly as a boiled purple eggplant, and he kept winking at Huo Jinshou.But Huo Jinshou just looked at Li Hanzhang and didn't take into account the change in Zhu Biao's expression. In a blink of an eye, Wang Dafu was dragged in: this guy not only had a bruised nose and a swollen face, but also had injuries all over his body, and he was only wearing a pair of big underpants in winter, his whole body was dripping wet, shaking like chaff!As soon as he was released, Wang Dafu knelt down at Li Hanzhang's feet with a "plop", hugging his leg and crying loudly, crying, "Sir, sir, you have to let the little one decide!" Huo Jinshou was also obviously taken aback, but before Li Hanzhang could speak to Huo Jinshou, Zhu Biao took a step forward and pulled Wang Dafu up from the ground.Pulling him up, he said: "Dafu, how many times have I told you that you are happy with a small bet, but a loser with a big bet. How is it, this time you lose so much that you can't pay back the money, so let someone beat you up? It's all right now, Li The director promoted you to be his adjutant. Now, you are bigger than my officer, and I will call you officer! However, after all, we are brothers who have worked together, so we must be careful when we talk. , don't be like this morning, when Director Li has not officially announced your appointment, you just go around talking nonsense, and your mouth is not firm!" When Zhu Biao said the words "mouth is not firm", there was a murderous look in his eyes.Li Hanzhang watched coldly, and Huo Jinshou seemed to see what was going on here.Wang Dafu dodged Zhu Biao's gaze, shaking even more violently. "Captain Zhu, why don't you hurry up and find a military uniform for Adjutant Wang?" Huo Jinshou glared at Zhu Biao, then patted Wang Dafu on the shoulder and said, "Brother, please feel wronged first. Arrange for someone to send you and Director Li on the road. In the future, I will rely on Adjutant Wang to take care of these brothers in Tonggu Village." "Yes! Commander..." Zhu Biao agreed, and was about to turn around when Li Hanzhang stopped him, and then said: "No need, no need. I'll go to Dazu next step. If I'm wearing a military uniform, wouldn't it be sent to Li Desheng's communist army to capture prisoners? So, just find suitable casual clothes for Adjutant Wang. It’s best to wear a bunt, which is convenient for you to move around on the road.” Li Hanzhang took off his long cotton robe and put it on Wang Dafu as he said.Wang Dafu was trembling with his arms folded, hearing what Li Hanzhang said, and seeing Li Hanzhang doing this, two lines of tears rolled out of his eyes immediately. "Yes! Sir!" After listening to Li Hanzhang's order, Zhu Biao saluted, turned and went out. After Zhu Biao left, Huo Jinshou and Li Hanzhang sat down on both sides of the square table under Chiang Kai-shek's uniform.Li Hanzhang responded to all changes without change, waiting for Huo Jinshou to speak first.Huo Jinshou seemed to understand Li Hanzhang's psychology, shook his fat head, sighed first, and then said: "Director Li, you and I are destined to meet each other, it's my blessing! If Huo's hospitality is not good, I hope you will forgive me a lot. The current situation is chaotic, but General Li insists on leaving Tonggu Village. Huo is worried. Now that Director Li is gone, I wonder if we can meet again in this life? Thinking of this, Huo feels very sad." "Isn't Commander Huo still ambitious yesterday?" Li Hanzhang said, and slapped the table, "Although I, Li, am not talented, I have never wavered in the great cause of the party and the country. I believe we will still get along with each other." see you!" Huo Jinshou was taken aback. He listened to Li Hanzhang's words with wide eyes. He picked up a large porcelain bowl on the table, took a sip of tea, wiped his mouth and said, "That is, that is. When I came to Xiaozhai, Huo didn't want to repay him, so I specially prepared two small profits for the general, please accept it." He said, took out two pieces of paper from his pocket, and spread them in front of Li Hanzhang. Li Hanzhang took a closer look, but there were two certificates. One was the same as "Chengdu citizen Zhou Yaozu" in content and seal, but the name was changed from "Zhou Yaozu" to "Zhang Shiming"; the other was the identity issued by the Chengdu Military Control Commission. Proof, there is a picture of himself on it, and his name is also "Zhang Shiming".Before going up the mountain yesterday, Zhu Biao searched all his belongings, and after just one night, they actually forged an identity certificate that was almost authentic... Thinking about it, Li Hanzhang couldn't help sighing secretly: It seems that, as Huo Jinshou said, In other words, this Tonggu village has all kinds of talents. Seeing the disparity on Li Hanzhang's face, Huo Jinshou cupped his hands and said proudly: "Although my Tonggu village is not big, there are many gods from all walks of life. Director Li is from the CC department, so it's natural for you to play such tricks in front of you." I am very sorry. Without General Li’s consent, I made up my own opinion and gave General Li a pseudonym. Now the Communist Army is very strict along the way. These two things must be necessary for General Li, otherwise I will go down Tonggu Mountain , it will be difficult to move an inch.” "Commander Huo is too thoughtful, Li has nothing to repay!" After saying this, Li Hanzhang put the two certificates into the pocket of his jacket. "We are both loyal to the party and the country. How can we say repayment? I only hope that General Li will go to the Yunnan-Burma 'Sichuan-Yunnan-Guizhou Guerrilla Headquarters'. It's endless." Huo Jinshou frowned, and said, "It's just that your appointment of Adjutant Wang happened suddenly, and my brother didn't have time to prepare his identity certificate. General Li, look..." "Nothing, nothing. I will go down the mountain with Chief Li. I will go down the mountain with Chief Li. Anyway, I have decided to follow Chief Li. With Chief Li here, I don't know anything to be afraid of!" Wang Dafu interrupted hastily. Huo Jinshou glanced at Wang Dafu, but did not speak. "Let me arrange the matter of Adjutant Wang. Please don't worry, Commander Huo." Li Hanzhang glanced at Wang Dafu, knowing that he couldn't wait to go with him now, and smiled secretly. Hearing Li Hanzhang's statement, Huo Jinshou cupped his hands and said, "Then... I will hand over my brother to General Li." As soon as the words were said, Zhu Biao came in with a "report!", holding a pile of clothes in one hand and a cloth bag in the other.After entering the door, he threw the pile of clothes over without even looking at Wang Dafu, and then turned to Huo Jinshou and said, "Report to the commander, everything about sending Chief Li down the mountain has been properly arranged!" Huo Jinshou stood up when he heard the words, took the big cloth bag, and said to Li Hanzhang: "There is nothing good on the mountain. This is a bag of dry food that the humble officer ordered his subordinates to prepare for General Li, that is, some steamed buns and bacon. , and I hope that General Li will not dislike him." Li Hanzhang nodded while sitting, cupped his hands and said, "Commander Huo is very thoughtful. Thank you very much!" "Director Li, you're being polite." Huo Jinshou said, seeing that Wang Dafu had already put on his clothes, he handed him the pocket, "Adjutant Wang, why don't you carry the shoulder strap for your chief?" Wang Dafu bowed his waist, took the pocket with both hands and put it into the back strap. Huo Jinshou looked at Li Hanzhang, and suddenly said loudly to the door: "Open the 'Xiji Gate' and send off General Li!" Li Hanzhang listened to Huo Jinshou's words to "send him off respectfully", sat still, and asked with a faint smile: "To Dazu, should we go to 'Dong'anmen'?" Huo Jinshou laughed and said: "Director Li is amazing! I have only been here for a day in Tonggu Village, and I have figured out the terrain. Hehe, to tell you the truth, 'Xiji Gate' is the main entrance of Tonggu Village, and important guests came from the mountain. We will open the 'Xiji Gate' to welcome and see off guests." Huo Jinshou's words reminded Li Hanzhang of how he went up the mountain.He sneered twice, stood up, walked side by side with Huo Jinshou at the Xiji Gate. Outside the "Xiji Gate", the stone steps going down the mountain are relatively flat, and there are one or two hundred people standing on both sides of the steps, holding guns.Huo Jinshou took Li Hanzhang's hand, walked out of the corridor of the human wall, and while exchanging greetings, walked along a winding path outside the wall of the village to the mountain path outside the "Dong'an Gate" of Tonggu Village, along the After walking for nearly two hours on the winding mountain road, I finally reached the foot of the mountain on the east side of Tonggu Mountain. "After going down the mountain, the front is the territory of the communist army. I'm sorry that I can't send you far away. Let's leave it alone, and I hope General Li... Oh, Zhang Shiming, shopkeeper Zhang, take care!" Before parting, Huo Jinshou gave a military salute first, and then He cupped his hands and bowed to the end, then turned around and said to Wang Dafu who was following him, "Adjutant Wang, brother Dafu, I hope you don't care about anything that offended Huo on the mountain before! Although you are now my officer, But after all, they are all brothers from Tongguzhai, if you don’t serve Master Zhang well along the way, be careful, brother, I will be rude to you!” It was the first time Wang Dafu heard Huo Jinshou talking to him like this, he didn't know how to answer for a moment, he just nodded repeatedly. After breaking up with Huo Jinshou, Li Hanzhang and Wang Dafu walked together for a while, seeing that they were approaching the pass out of the mountain, Li Hanzhang asked Wang Dafu: "Do you know the way to Dazu?" "Report sir, I am familiar with it." "Then you lead the way, we..." "Sir, can I have something to eat before I leave?" Wang Dafu interrupted Li Hanzhang embarrassedly and said, "That son of a bitch, Zhu Biao, said that I was a traitor in Tongguzhai, not only beat me, poured water on me, but also Let me drink a sip of water and eat a sip of food, I... I'm starving right now." "What's the matter? Then you should eat something first." Li Hanzhang glanced at Wang Dafu, not knowing whether to sympathize with him for being honest, or scold him for being useless. As soon as Li Hanzhang finished speaking, Wang Dafu put down his shoulder bag, opened the big cloth bag Huo Jinshou gave him, grabbed out a steamed bun with one hand, and a piece of bacon with the other... Li Hanzhang sat on the side of the road, looking at the mountain road and thinking, while waiting for Wang Dafu.Unexpectedly, Wang Dafu hadn't finished eating a steamed bun, and suddenly he clutched his stomach and cried out that it hurts.Li Hanzhang saw that his five sense organs were disfigured from the pain, and immediately understood what was going on: These bastard sons poisoned the dry food! Thinking of this, Li Hanzhang rushed to Wang Dafu's side, put the shoulder strap on his body with one hand, and dragged Wang Dafu who was rolling on the ground to the next to the cliff with the other hand.Shiya was only half a person tall. Li Hanzhang squatted on the ground and held Wang Dafu's head and shouted, "Dafu, Dafu, what's wrong with you? What's wrong?" "Guild son, I'm not only going to harm you, but also Lao Tzu!" Wang Dafu gritted his teeth in Li Hanzhang's arms, his eyes were burning, "Mr. Li, you are a good...a good person. Last night, I Come out of your room and go back to sleep as you ordered. On the way, I saw Huo Jinshou and Zhu Biao approaching. I was startled. I was afraid... I was afraid that they would know that I was not on guard, so I would hide...Listen To them...they said that they received a telegram, and their superiors...the superiors ordered you to stay if you can, and kill you if you can't. Commander Huo... Commander Huo said, if you stay, he will become a puppet , I can’t be the commander anymore, and I still have to... still be under your wretchedness...Commander Huo also...also said...he...was too careless after drinking, and even took you to see the defense situation on the mountain. One... read it clearly... they also said... you... said you... have a special status, and you have... mastered the information of the National Anti-Communist and National Salvation Army. In the hands of the army. Anyway...Fang Zheng, whether you stay or not, you must...must..." Wang Dafu's voice became weaker and weaker, and finally bleeding from his seven orifices, he tilted his head, and fell on the ground of Li Hanzhang. arms. Li Hanzhang realized that he was in a very dangerous situation, quickly put Wang Dafu on the ground, opened the back strap, and loaded the Colt pistol and revolver with bullets, he thought, Huo Jinshou and Zhu Biao thought that there was nothing to move Hanzhang After preparing certificates and food for Hanzhang, Hanzhang couldn't see the knife hidden in their smiles and the needle hidden in the cotton.Hehe, Li Hanzhang has to eat, right?As long as he touched the steamed buns and bacon in the bag, and counted from one to seven, he would hold his stomach and cry for his father and mother, and then his seven orifices would bleed.In this way, not only did he not bear the name of injustice, he also completed the task assigned by Commander-in-Chief Li Wei, and obtained Li Hanzhang's property. When Li Hanzhang thought of the tricks Huo Jinshou and Zhu Biao did, he couldn't help cursing: These guys, speaking of themselves, are regular troops of the national army. Yes, in order to save his life, he betrayed the party and country and surrendered to the Communist Party first; and because the food was not good, he betrayed the Communist Party and gathered in the mountains and forests behind... Suddenly, there was a gunshot, and a bullet flew from nowhere, hitting the stone beside Li Hanzhang. It seems that the group of people who followed behind him, waiting to pick up property after bleeding from his seven orifices arrived!Li Hanzhang stuck close to the stone wall and observed his position: there was an open field in front of him, 40 to 50 meters away to the west, which was the pass out of the mountain. Judging from the direction of the shot just now, the opponent was on his west side ——In other words, the other party has most likely blocked his way out of the mountain! Li Hanzhang was analyzing his current situation, when a burst of gunshots rang out suddenly, and bullets flew towards him densely from both sides of the mountain road and the two sides of the mountain pass!Fortunately, the rock cliff where Li Hanzhang was hiding was recessed inwards to a depth of more than one meter. The bullets flying from both sides could only block him under this rock cliff, but could not hurt him. Li Hanzhang hadn't figured out a way to get away, but found that the opponent had already outflanked him. Judging from the intensity of the gunfire, there were about seven or eight people in the opponent.The gunshots were getting closer and closer, and Li Hanzhang was hiding under the cliff, and he could already hear Zhu Biao yelling, "Shoot him" and "We must not let him escape"! I am in the light, Zhu Biao and the others are in the dark, the situation is very critical!If he didn't take the initiative to attack, he would really be buried here today. Li Hanzhang decided to rush out and fight to the death! "Da da da da..." At this critical juncture, amidst the messy gunfire, the sound of a carbine suddenly sounded.随后，李涵章就听见一阵哭爹叫娘的哀号，而射向自己的子弹，也改变了射击的方向。 趁此机会，李涵章一个就地十八滚，匍匐着出了那个石崖窟——就在李涵章滚出石崖窟，迅速躲到另一块巨石后边时，他忽然看见一个十分熟悉的身影，灵活如一只猴子，在他和王大福下山的方向、在离自己七八十米远的山岩间，跳跃攀爬着，利用树木和巨石做掩体，端着一支卡宾枪，居高临下阻击着偷袭自己的朱彪等人！ 根本不需要考虑，只看那身手李涵章就知道：这个在紧急关头救了自己的人，是周云刚！
