Chapter 3 third chapter

 one Just when Liang Daya and Zhu Yidao were receiving Zhang Pujing's "revolutionary belief" education in Aotu Mountain South, Chen Mohan and Han Qiuyun entered another world.  After breaking up in Zhuangziling that day, Han Qiuyun and Chen Mohan went all the way, and when they arrived at Sancha Ferry hungry and hungry, it was just dawn when they realized that the bridge deck of the ferry had been dismantled.  Sancha Ferry is at the confluence of Erdao River and Manliu River, and it is also the only place to go to Lanqiaobu in the three directions of Hedong, Hexi and Hebei.At this time in the past, the west bank of the river was always crowded with people, some were carrying geese to pick vegetables, some were carrying bamboo mats, and there were also big girls and young wives carrying a basket of eggs to the town to sell and buy salt and cotton cloth.A five-foot-wide wooden bridge is not enough, and Wang Laosan's ferry is often added to ferry back and forth.But right now, the place is empty, with only a thin layer of mist floating on the river.Looking at the wide river surface, Chen Mohan was immediately filled with emotion.Overnight, things changed and people changed, it was really like a dream, as if it had passed away. 

Without a bridge or a boat, the two of them have no way to go to heaven and no way to go to earth.Looking at the river and sighing, I saw several boats going down the river. The people on the boat saw two teenagers, a man and a girl, standing on the bank, so they approached the boat.On board were some soldiers in yellow clothes, at first they couldn't see clearly, but when they saw it clearly, Chen Mohan's face turned pale-oh my god, this is the Kuomintang team.  "Run!" Chen Mohan pulled Han Qiuyun past him, and ran into the river bend.Unexpectedly, at this critical juncture, Han Qiuyun sifted through the chaff, his legs seemed to be attached to a bundle of wet firewood, and he could not move them.

 "Stop, don't run! If you run again, you will shoot!"  The men on the boat jumped ashore, shouting and snapping the bolts of their guns as they ran after them.Han Qiuyun was dragged by Chen Mohan, stumbled, tripped over a stone ridge, screamed "Mother", and fell headlong into the reeds by the river.  The yellow uniforms surrounded them, and one of them, an officer with a pistol in his waist, asked sharply, "Who are you?" Chen Mohan's heart was beating wildly at this moment, he tried his best to maintain his composure, and answered with vigor: "The Japanese devils broke into Lanqiaoport, and the two of us ran against each other." 

"Run-reverse?" The officer-like man seemed not to believe it, and said, "Lanqiao port was burned yesterday, you should go to the east of the river, how did you get here? Going further is Meiling, you know Is it?"  Chen Mohan saw that although these officers and soldiers were strict, they didn't intend to shoot yet, so he was a little relieved. After thinking about it, he should tell the truth. "We are going to Meiling."  The officer was a little surprised and asked, "Meiling is a guerrilla unit of the Eighth Route Army, do you know that?" Chen Mohan replied calmly: "My Chinese teacher, Wang Lantian, is also there, so I went to find Mr. Wang." 

While talking, someone shouted from the boat in the middle of the river: "Battlemaster Zhang, the regiment asked you to bring people here."  The man who looked like an officer waved his hand, and several soldiers with guns rushed over, pushing Chen Mohan and Han Qiuyun onto a big boat.  After a short time, a soldier came out of the cabin, opened the curtain, and followed by a tall officer.The officer wore a large-brimmed hat and a woolen military uniform. He was about thirty years old, with a square face, a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and a pair of snow-white gloves on his hands.After stepping out of the cabin door, the officer did not leave. One thumb was stuck on the wide leather belt around his waist, and the other hand was held together in front of his chest. His legs were slightly apart, and he stood steadily. On the swaying board, his eyes moved up and down flatly, looking at Chen Mohan and Han Qiuyun coldly. 

The demeanor of this officer stunned Chen Mohan.Good guy, you really look like a general.In fact, Chen Mohan also knew that the biggest official in the Aotu Mountain Kuomintang army was Colonel Liu Hanying, and he must be the one in front of him.  Chen Mohan guessed right, this person is Liu Hanying.That Battalion Commander Zhang went up to report: "Tuan Zuo, they said they ran out from Lanqiaoport and went to Meiling."  Liu Hanying said "Oh", looked at the two of them from head to toe, and asked coldly, "Are you going to Meiling?"  Chen Mohan straightened his legs involuntarily, and answered honestly: "Yes, sir."

"Is there anyone you know in Meiling?" Liu Hanying asked again, her voice getting colder.  Chen Mohan couldn't figure out what the head of the group meant, so he had to answer truthfully: "My Chinese Mr. Wang Lantian is in Meiling, we have an appointment first."  Liu Hanying took off the gloves, tapped on the back of her hand for a while, looked at Chen Mohan and Han Qiuyun, turned her head and told Commander Zhang: "Stay away—I'm dead."  Chen Mohan's shock was no small matter.Two big living people, one did not steal and the other did not rob, how can they be killed if they are killed?Going to Meiling to defect to the Eighth Route, is it also participating in the Anti-Japanese War, and they were killed indiscriminately, isn't it a careless disregard for human life?Turning to look at Han Qiuyun again, his face was already so frightened that it was sifted into balls. 

Although more than half of his own soul has been frightened away, Chen Mohan felt that he couldn't let the back of a scholar fall at this critical moment, so he raised his energy and boldly said: "Wait—slow. Dare to ask, sir, we made a mistake. What is the crime?"  After Liu Hanying finished speaking, she was already ready to enter the cabin door. Hearing Chen Mohan's questioning, she turned around and stood with one foot inside the door and one foot outside the door. She glanced at Chen Mohan in surprise and said, " Hey—you seem to have a little courage?"  Chen Mohan thought about it, and now that things are going to go all out anyway, he straightened his back and said with an upright face: "We joined the army for no crime and there is no reason to be killed. Commander Liu is an anti-Japanese officer. Killing innocent people indiscriminately will lead to injustice." Righteousness, the one who is ashamed of the people of the country will be Commander Liu. Although we are not ashamed to die, we have nothing to fear!" 

Liu Hanying was startled, shrugged her nose, as if she was sniffing something, and then laughed: "What a smart-toothed little scholar, not mediocre, it seems that he has drunk red ink. But... how can I believe that you are not Where are the spies of the Japanese army?" Chen Mohan asked neither humble nor overbearing: "What basis do you have for saying that we are spies of the Japanese army?"  Liu Hanying's brows twitched, she grabbed the gloves and wiped her hands a few times, then looked at the officers around her, and asked, "What do you think, to kill—or not to kill?" 

At this time, a one-eyed officer stood up, stood up and said: "Tuan Zuo, the national crisis is in the face of it, and it is time to employ people. Give me this scholar." Liu Hanying pondered for a moment, waved his hand and said, "That's fine, let him be a student soldier in the supplementary camp. However, strict precautions must be taken. This person has a taste of the Communist Party in his mind. Once he finds any misconduct, he will be punished on the spot." shot."  After finishing speaking, he turned his head and said to a female officer in military uniform next to her, "Since you don't kill her, then don't kill her. I'll leave this little girl to you, and she will be added to the field service team." 

two Five days later, Liu Hanying's 700 troops gathered at Shuhuobu on the north side of Aotu Mountain.Some came from waterways, some came from mountain roads, and dozens of people had already been captured by the Japanese army. On the way to be dragged out to be buried alive, they were ambushed by Yang Tinghui's troops, and these dozens of people also fled back.  Shuhuobu is an important town in the southwest of Luo'an Prefecture. It is surrounded by overlapping peaks and ridges, where valleys and streams meet, and primeval forests are everywhere. The leaves accumulated over the years are rotted into mud, which looks like a swamp. It is so gloomy that it is almost isolated from the outside world. A natural place for rest and recuperation.The Minister's Department specifically confessed to Liu Hanying that since the Chinese army launched the Pingxingguan Battle, the Japanese army has been eager to retaliate, and its flames are blazing.The minister's department asked Liu Hanying to pay attention to preserving his strength, avoiding the enemy's edge, and not to fight for the time being.Let the Eighth Route Army deal with the hornet's nest poked by the Eighth Route Army.The national army should gain a firm foothold in the concave-convex mountain and expand its ranks.Liu Hanying's immediate superior, division commander Fang Fuyang, even asserted that as long as there were 3,000 troops on Aotu Mountain, the Japanese army would not have tens of thousands of troops.  At this time, Liu Hanying was no longer the head of the 246th Regiment of the National Army. After he settled down in Shuhuobu, he became the major general of the National Revolutionary Army’s Outushan Anti-Japanese Independent Brigade and the special administrator of Aotushan. Office Commissioner.Liu Hanying sent more than a dozen groups of troops to collect stragglers in more than a dozen surrounding counties, and contacted the former government officials of each county to establish district and township Baojia and collect taxes.In less than a month, another 2,000 soldiers were recruited, and a crash school was built to the east of Ziyun Temple in Shuhuobu.In order to reflect the emphasis on education, Liu Hanying, who is also the principal, selects outstanding boys and girls from nearly a hundred market towns in the concave-convex mountainous area to study, and provides free board and lodging.Naturally, the wool comes from the sheep, and if you collect more taxes from the common people, you will have everything.  Thirty miles to the west from Shuhuobu, there is a Wulongji, which is the western edge of the Shuhuobu area in terms of terrain.There are a few big houses with gray walls and gray tiles at the south end of Wulongji. They used to be the ancestral hall of a wealthy family. Fearing the approach of the Japanese army, the patriarch fled to the southwest because of his wealth.The tribe also lost many rules, and the ancestral hall was basically idle. The 79th Battalion of Liu Hanying's one-eyed officer was stationed here.  A few days later, Chen Mohan learned from the veterans that the 79th Battalion was not originally Liu Hanying's troops, but was incorporated after being defeated by Jiang Wenzhao's troops in the Dongtiao Mountain Incident not long ago. It was originally a regiment The regiment leader is Shi Yunbiao, the one-eyed officer who saved his life.The deputy commander was named Mo Ganshan, who was the personal bodyguard of Wu Peimei, the chief general of the Dongtiaoshan Incident and the former commander of the 79th Army.  In the so-called Dongtiaoshan Incident, Wu Peimei and more than 70 senior generals were killed in battle due to the large-scale encirclement and suppression by Jiang Wenzhao and other troops, and more than 10,000 troops were defeated in quicksand.Shi Yunbiao, Mo Ganshan and others finally laid down their weapons in order to protect the overall situation of the Anti-Japanese War and the lives of more than a thousand brothers, and Jiang Wenzhao ordered his division commander Fang Fuyang to be responsible for the purge.Later, because the Japanese army was advancing to the rear of East China and the battle was tense, Fang Fuyang incorporated the remnants of Shi Yunbiao into Liu Hanying's regiment and downgraded it to a brigade.The rest of the battalion commanders Zhao Wuwei, Li Sanyuan and Pan Zhongxing were all demoted to squadron leaders.  Chen Mohan, who is new to the army, naturally doesn't know much about the experience of the 79th brigade and the grievances and grievances between Shi Yunbiao, Mo Ganshan and others with Jiang Wenzhao, Fang Fuyang and Liu Hanying. See the slightest clue and the slightest dissatisfaction and grievance.Their faces were all monolithic, and they kept secret about their experiences.What Chen Mohan learned from them was an extremely lashing training on the body and will.  It is noon.The sun is like a burning fireball, scorching the mountains mercilessly. Countless sharp and hot steel needles pierced through the cloudless cloudless sky, piercing into the skin of student Chen Mohan unobstructed, and piercing the skin deep into his skin. The moisture in the skin is squeezed out little by little and accumulated around the pores.Big beads of sweat fell on the red sand in front of my eyes.  In this situation, Chen Mohan, who has always despised rudeness and cherishes face extremely, can no longer keep the etiquette of a scholar, and often scolds his mother bitterly in his heart.Damn it's really not a taste, it's really gentle.  The captain is here.  The head of the one-eyed team paused every step, his steps were steady, powerful, and aggressive.The heavy leather shoes made a rumbling sound on the ground, through the ground, seeping from one place to another, and from the soles of the feet to Chen Mohan's heart and lungs.  Chen Mohan was afraid of the footsteps with a clear rhythm, and he especially hated the short-legged white-haired wolfhound following behind the captain.The dog was sticking out its scarlet tongue, and it was obviously also disturbed by the heat. Its small round eyes looked around cunningly, lowered its head from time to time, sniffed around with its nose close to the ground, and panted heavily.  The restlessness of the dog is in stark contrast to the majesty of the captain.Even in the scorching dog days, the one-eyed captain was dressed in a thick military uniform, buttoned up meticulously, with a pair of genuine riding boots on his feet, standing there, even though his body was drenched with sweat, he would still remain motionless.As long as there is one soldier on the training ground, the captain will not leave the training ground.  Chen Mohan heard from the veterans that the captain Shi Yunbiao was from the north, he was born in a military family, he had studied in Cixian Lecture Hall, and later he studied in Baoding Army Academy. Conceited, many colleagues are like grass in his eyes.This gentleman gets along well with others, and believes in the military school spirit of punctuality, trustworthiness and hard study. He admires the wisdom of Kongming, the loyalty of Yunchang, the courage of Zilong, and the fierceness of Yide. He must fight bravely in every battle.A few years ago, before the all-out war of resistance began, the Japanese advance spy agency sent ronin to sneak into the hinterland of North China to cause trouble. A gang of ronin fought with a battalion of the 79th Army. Shi Yunbiao was the company commander at the time. The remnants fought head-to-head with the Japanese pirates, and their left eye was pierced by the tip of the Japanese pirates. After the battle, the eyeball was plucked in the hospital.  Without the left eye, the remaining right eye is particularly shrewd, and the bright eyeballs can often see the little tricks of the apprentice Chen Mohan a few feet away—for example, the pair of slightly bent in the fat army trousers knee.  As daunting as the one-eyed captain, there is the white dog that follows Shi Yunbiao like a ghost.Originally, there was a cold and deep one-eyed captain, which already made the students tremble with fear. That one-eyed one was hard to guard against, and with the addition of two dog eyes, the students would never dare to be lazy.That dog seems to have been specially trained. It can not only figure out the mood of the master, but also spy on the privacy of the students. If it takes a wrong step while walking, it will yelp and pounce.  It's really a dog.It doesn't bite, it just barks at you, the more you worry, the more it barks, until Shi Yunbiao adjusted his one eye, and the one that stared at you made a mistake It will shut up in resentment, wagging its tail triumphantly, and rubbing against its master's legs, as if triumphantly asking for credit.  The following results can be imagined.  A few of the student soldiers secretly plotted to get this nasty dog ​​into the pot, but the plot aborted before it could be carried out—no one really dared to look at the eyelids of the one-eyed captain.  This dog is not an ordinary dog, it has a lot of history.Veterans familiar with the matter said that it turned out to be the pet of Mrs. Wu Peimei, the commander of the 79th Army. During the Dongtiaoshan Incident, General Wu Peimei once tied a secret letter around its neck, and it rushed out of the heavy encirclement amidst the hail of bullets. , sent the secret letter to Shu Dushan, and through the hands of Shi Yunbiao, it was submitted to General Chen, one of the founders of the 79th Army, thus making great contributions to preserving the remnants of the 79th Army.As for how this dog returned to the 79th Brigade and became one of Shi Yunbiao's main assistants, no one can say clearly.Obviously, this dog is one of the important heroes of the 79th Army.Since General Wu Peimei died, it will remain by Shi Yunbiao's side as a symbol.In a sense, it is a piece of history, a soul, and an unyielding spirit.  Who would dare to attack a dog with such an extraordinary history?  In Chen Mohan's impression, Shi Yunbiao's face was always gloomy, and this gloomy face seemed to be shaking forever on the training ground of the 79th Brigade.And only when Shi Yunbiao was alone with the dog between exercises, would his gloomy face relax a little, showing a trace of warmth.In that short moment, the captain seemed to be a tired old man who would stretch out his hard arms and lovingly caress the dog beside him.The dog is also extremely obedient at this time, lying quietly on the side, tilting its head, and its eyes are full of sweet satisfaction.  At this time, Chen Mohan's heart would suddenly tremble again.He vaguely felt that the vicious-looking captain was actually very pitiful, even including the vicious dog. three Now, Chen Mohan faced another gloomy face.  Shi Yunbiao paced step by step, walked slowly in front of Chen Mohan, looked down at his feet, and then moved his eyes up.Chen Mohan felt a big cold hand slide over the top of his feet, scrape the condyles of his feet, and then, at the place between his thigh and calf, Shi Yunbiao's one-eyed freezes.  The white dog is also watching.  Chen Mohan shuddered, he saw Shi Yunbiao's stern face like a knife carving exposed a layer of copper-colored oil under the scorching sun, and the muscles on his cheeks trembled up and down as if being pulled by someone.  Based on previous experience, Chen Mohan estimated that the captain would do it himself.The captain's hands are not big, and he is skinny and steep.When he cut his palm between Chen Mohan's legs for the first time, Chen Mohan almost cried out. He felt an iron rod hitting his inner knee bone, and he even heard the sound of metal hitting the bone.  But Shi Yunbiao didn't cut his leg seam with his palm this time, the one eye rose up from the bottom, landed on Chen Mohan's face, swayed around leisurely, suddenly cheered up, and shouted: "Student——Chen Mohan !”  "Yes!" Chen Mohan shook his head violently, the muscles all over his body tensed up, and a resounding voice came out of his mouth.  The white dog, which is quite humane, is also standing up straight at this time, looking straight at him, and maintaining a posture of standing upright.  "School soldier Chen-mo-han!" Shi Yunbiao's eyes were like a torch, and he looked at Chen Mohan's reddish face, raising his voice and shouting again.  "Yes!" Chen Mohan channeled enough energy in his dantian, and suddenly burst out. "Xuebing Chen-mo-han!" Shi Yunbiao adjusted the volume, keeping it at a level that was neither high nor low, one sound after another, one sound harder, each sound sonorous and vigorous like a pair of hammers, forged Touching Chen Mohan's nerves.  Chen Mohan maintained an upright posture, with his middle finger sticking to the seam of his trousers. Following the waves rolling over one after another, after a high-pitched murmur, he felt a strange thing suddenly injected into his body, swelling His blood vessels were squeezed, and an unprecedented force penetrated the muscles, caressed the bones, and condensed on the fingertips.He never expected that he could make such a roar like a mountain roar and a tsunami, and he never knew that there was such viscous blood in his body.All this seemed very simple, just a few shouts from Shi Yunbiao brought out his masculinity.In the cry of "I forgot about this thing", Chen Mohan almost burst into tears, and the sudden tears rushed in his chest.  Shi Yunbiao lost no time in dispelling Chen Mohan's bookish spirit, and said coldly: "Scholar Chen Mohan replied, the second section of "Infantry Exercise Code."  "Yes——!" Chen Mohan responded, recovering his emotions, relaxing his muscles, tensing his mind, keeping his gaze parallel, staring at Shi Yunbiao, and then recited sonorously—"The second is standing. A soldier's standing is like loosening. Keep your hips straight and your arms straight, don't look sideways. Don't be startled by rocks collapsing in front of you, and don't be disturbed by thunderstorms behind you. Concentrate your energy in the Dantian, concentrate on the sky, stand on the ground and reach the sky..."  The sudden breaking sound interrupted Chen Mohan's recitation.Shi Yunbiao's broadsword flew over Chen Mohan's head, four or five steps behind him, and hit the elm tree under the gray brick wall of the ancestral hall, and the thick trunk of the bowl was cut in two.  Suddenly shocked by this, Chen Mohan instinctively closed his eyes.When he opened his eyes again, he saw Shi Yunbiao sneering.Shi Yunbiao sneered and asked: "Chen Mohan, count the number of eyes in this place?"  Chen Mohan was stunned, and almost blurted out that it was three, but he swallowed it with a thud.He didn't understand what the captain meant, and he didn't think it was appropriate to say three or four.  "say!" "Tell the truth or lie?" Chen Mohan felt that Shi Yunbiao was too aggressive, forcing him to have no way out, so he simply braced himself and asked.  "Of course it's the truth." Shi Yunbiao said.  Chen Mohan straightened his back, this time he was unambiguous, and replied solemnly: "Report to the captain, there are three eyes here." "What?" Shi Yunbiao's face became more gloomy, he narrowed his eyes and said, "Carefully count again."  Chen Mohan answered clearly again: "Report to the captain, count carefully again, there are still three."  Shi Yunbiao snorted through his nose: "There are eyes but no eyes... I mean me, and I mean you. Let me tell you, there are five eyes here, including three human eyes and two dog eyes. Look at this dog, Its name is Xue Wuhen, and it is a hero of our 79th brigade. Just now, when I drew my sword out of its sheath, it maintained its due composure. You look at it for me, did you see it? It is standing at attention, it is looking at you, it is sneering, it--it looks down on you."  A rush of hot blood rushed up.Chen Mohan glanced at Xue Wuhen angrily.This yin and yang beast stared at him motionlessly, as if he was really contemptuous.Another layer of hatred and humiliation welled up in Chen Mohan's heart.The fucking captain actually put him on the same level as a dog.What made him even more unacceptable was that the captain's words were obviously saying that he, Chen Mohan, was not as good as a dog.  At this moment, how much Chen Mohan missed his Chinese teacher, Wang Lantian.He had thought of the other side of Bump Mountain countless times during the short nap in practice.He already knew now that neither Liang Daya nor Zhu Yidao joined the national army, but they both joined the Eighth Route Army.The results of the facts run counter to their original intentions.  when?Fate?  Ever since he fell into the ranks of the national army by accident, Chen Mohan had seriously calculated that as long as he had the opportunity, he would leave here. He still wanted to find Mr. Wang and join the Eighth Route Army.Not to mention that he was not interested in the complicated politics of the Kuomintang army, he couldn't bear the humiliation imposed on him by the one-eyed captain alone.  However, Shi Yunbiao didn't allow him to think too much, and yelled with his buttocks in his hands again—"Xuebing——Chen Mohan——!"  "Yes—!" Even though he was full of hatred, he cheered up under the order.  "You have to remember that in matters of the military, courage comes first; the way to be bold, skills come first. Skills are courageous -- that is, as the saying goes, those with high skills are bold, and courageous are strong soldiers. Now you are an anti-Japanese soldier Soldiers must have a sense of pride. Since serving the country, life and death will naturally be ignored. A man will be a hero in life and a ghost in death. With this courage, there is no fear in training soldiers and martial arts. Is there anything terrible in the world? Such a soldier, They are real soldiers. Do you understand?"  "Understood!" Chen Mohan straightened his stomach and chest, and replied loudly.  Chen Mohan was brewing generosity, when suddenly another big knife flew over his head.Chen Mohan's eyelids trembled a few times, but he gritted his teeth and forced them back up again.  Ka-cha-!  This time there were two intermittent beeps, and the canopy of the tree that fell grandly behind him brought a gust of hot wind to Chen Mohan's back, blowing his eardrums to swell and hurt.The muscles on Chen Mohan's cheeks moved, but his body remained at attention.  Shi Yunbiao withdrew his broadsword, walked over step by step, first stretched out a hand to grab Chen Mohan's chin, and rubbed it a few times.He stretched out his other hand, put both hands on Chen Mohan's shoulder, and pressed down hard suddenly.  Chen Mohan staggered for a while, but quickly stood firm, his eyes calmly fixed on Shi Yunbiao. "Scholar Chen Mohan, let me ask you, you are a scholar, you came from a wealthy family, why didn't you follow your father and brother to move to another peaceful place in this year of war and chaos, but came here to join the army to suffer flesh and blood and even blood. You, really Are you going to abandon your family to serve your country?"  Chen Mohan thought about it for a while, and immediately replied: "Sir, the ancients still know that they worry about the world's worries first, and enjoy the world's joys later. There is no end under the collapse of the nest. Why talk about the family when the country is broken, and what is the regret of the family's life? Mo Han has been influenced by Chinese civilization for thousands of years since he was a child. How can he just live in the face of this national crisis? Now the scorched earth is fighting against the war, young and old women are fighting against the enemy. And no regrets."  "Well, well said." Shi Yunbiao glanced at Chen Mohan, nodded, and suddenly shouted: "Captain Zhao!"  The squadron leader Zhao Wuwei who was not far away came in response.  "Zhao Wuwei, throw him a hundred times. If he can stand up, he will be the first platoon leader of your squadron. New recruits and veterans, whoever refuses to accept, will be sent to the brigade to be dealt with by deputy commander Mo."  After Shi Yunbiao finished speaking, he turned around and walked away without looking back. The white dog Xue Wuhen behind him was stunned for a moment, jumped up too, followed Shi Yunbiao, and ran around in circles. Four Han Qiuyun suffered less flesh and blood than Chen Mohan, but it was a different kind of pain.  After the outbreak of the all-out Anti-Japanese War, the Minister's Department made foresight, Liu Hanying's regiment was ordered to retreat immediately after a strategic battle, and raised the banner of the Anti-Japanese Independent Brigade on the Aotu Mountain.At this time, the main force of the Japanese army was going south, leaving only a few troops to occupy the towns. Self-defense still felt that the troops were insufficient, and the "mopping up" was even more powerless.In addition, a group of mixed native and foreign anti-Japanese troops gathered at the foot of the concave-convex mountain. Yang Tinghui's detachment continued to attack. Liu Hanying in one corner is gone.  After all, Liu Hanying is an officer of the National Army who came out of the Whampoa Military Academy. Although he has the false name of a commissioner of the Aotu Mountain Special Administrative Office, but in this troubled time, the Commissioner's Office is just an amateur office. Liu Hanying is full of defense. question.I fought a few battles with the Japanese and suffered some losses. I still have lingering fears, and every time I think about it, I still feel a little jittery.On the one hand, he raised funds to establish various military organizations, and on the other hand, he surveyed all the pass fortresses at the northern foot of Aotu Mountain, set up formations, built fortifications, and strengthened defensive positions. In the organizational system gradually perfected by Liu Hanying, there is also a special team, the "Field Women's Service Team"—after being pardoned by Liu Hanying, Han Qiuyun became a member of the Battlefield Women's Service Team.  Naturally, the field women's service team is not as rigorously trained as the Seventy-ninth Brigade, especially without such cold-faced characters as Cyclops Yunbiao.The team has only one female captain named Gao Qiujiang, a native of Zhangde Prefecture in the Central Plains, in her twenties, and a formally trained national army officer.Compared with the male officers of the national army, Gao Qiujiang's attire is more beautiful-wearing a boat-shaped military cap, a crimson yellow military uniform, a leather belt, and a small pistol wrapped in red silk on his waist. He walks lightly. Ruyan, when she speaks, she looks like a heroic spirit and a very elegant demeanor.  Legend has it that Gao Qiujiang was the cousin of Moganshan, the deputy captain of the 79th Brigade. Back then, when he was still studying at the Zhangde Mansion Girls' Middle School, he fell in love with his tall, burly and daring cousin. After the sound was fired, he left home unstoppably and ran to the foot of Dongtiao Mountain.Needless to say, it goes without saying to serve the country as a soldier, but the girlish feelings of chasing her first love and dream are even more important motivations.Unexpectedly, at this time Moganshan has married Yu Fengxue, the younger sister of a colleague named Yu, and their affection is so deep that they cannot be separated.Gao Qiujiang had no choice but to retreat with tears in his eyes. With eyes red from crying, he signed up for the "special cadre training class" of Jiang Wenzhao's army. From then on, she changed from her gentle and gentle lady style, and became increasingly moody.When Liaocheng fell, Gao Qiujiang, who had been promoted to captain, happened to be on business in Liu Hanying's 246th Regiment, and was ordered to take part in command operations on the spot.After the troops broke up, she had no choice but to retreat into Aotu Mountain with Liu Hanying's regiment, and in the following days, she became a daring female leader of Liu Hanying's subordinates in Aotu Mountain.  Han Qiuyun was warned shortly after joining the women's service team. Captain Gao Qiujiang is not an easy person. Although she looks pretty, she is actually impatient and brutal, even Liu Hanying dares to scold her.Legend has it that she once wounded her orderly with a pistol for watching her take a bath.After she got dressed, she called the orderly over and asked him if she was good-looking. The orderly was so frightened that he knelt down and begged Captain Gao for forgiveness.Gao Qiujiang sneered and said that a good man should act like a good man, and it is not a big mistake for a man to want to see a woman.But your rogue-headed look made me feel uncomfortable. I wanted to spare you, but my revolver wouldn't agree. Besides, I knocked off four of the orderly's toes with the gun.  There is also an instructor surnamed Qi in the field women's service team, who used to be the medical officer of the ambulance team in the regiment.The 246th Regiment was organized into an independent brigade, and the ambulance team was upgraded and expanded into a hospital. However, due to the shortage of technical force, the hospital appeared to be a thin horse with long hair and big airs.In order to gain a firm foothold in the concave-convex mountain, Liu Hanying searched for talents everywhere, but he didn't know where to invite a foreign god-surgeon George Feng, so he smashed the job of Qi's doctor.  In the words of Doctor Qi, George Feng is a bastard.  George Feng's ancestry was a wealthy Nanyang businessman. In his grandfather's generation, he married a lady of a British government diplomat, who was also George Feng's grandmother. In this way, George Feng had a quarter of his English blood.The Battle of Songhu broke out in the 21st year of the Republic of China, and George Feng's family moved to England, and later settled in Canada.George Feng finished his medical studies in Canada, and did not return to China to serve at the behest of his grandfather and father until the start of the Anti-Japanese War.Although he is a surgeon, he is not an outsider in internal medicine.Once, Medical Officer Qi prescribed a wrong prescription for some reason, and George Feng found out, and made a mockery of Medical Officer Qi with cursing.Medical officer Qi is a captain medical officer, and he also drank foreign ink, how could he be willing to suffer such humiliation?In turn, he scolded George Feng.George Feng did not say a word, showing the open-mindedness of a learned person, but he didn't know how the matter got to Liu Hanying's ears, and Medical Officer Qi packed up his bed in a bewilderment, condescending to become a medical instructor in the Field Women's Service Team.  It was only now that Qi had come to know that George Feng, a bland animal, was no ordinary animal, so he couldn't afford to mess with him. Unexpectedly, Gao Qiujiang of the Field Women's Service Team is not an ordinary animal.At first he was not convinced, and always felt that he was a dignified captain and medical officer who was driven by a woman, and it was really inappropriate, so he played a few tricks, trying to turn the eyelids of that beautiful woman.Of course, these little tricks have not played Gao Qiujiang's big tricks.After suffering a few times, Medical Captain Qi became as honest as a grandson, no matter Gao Qiujiang yelled and yelled, he still had to live his days of swallowing his anger.  In addition to the few female soldiers who had been dismissed from the military headquarters and division headquarters as the backbone of the women's service team in the field, most of the new members were recruited in the concave-convex mountain area. People like Han Qiuyun are considered half-literate people.All personnel were selected one by one by Gao Qiujiang, and all of them were big-footed.In addition to rescuing the wounded, carrying stretchers, practicing bandaging, and learning to stop bleeding, the daily training subjects also taught some common sense of combat and medical diagnosis.The nature of this team is basically an ambulance team prepared to connect the battlefield and the rear hospital.  Han Qiuyun hadn't thought of taking on this kind of role before, but she was almost killed for no reason at first, and then she was not killed for no reason, which really frightened her.Now no matter what she is asked to do, she dare not make irresponsible remarks.She once thought by chance that Chen Mohan's words really worked, he insisted on bringing the dead back to life.From then on, she listened to Chen Mohan.Chen Mohan said, let's do it first, let's do it if it goes well, but if it doesn't go well, we'd better go find the eight roads. It's been a month now, and Han Qiuyun doesn't feel at all happy, and he doesn't feel at all uncomfortable.I haven't seen Chen Mohan since we broke up, and there is no news. Chen Mohan must not plan to run away.If you don't run, don't run.Although Han Qiuyun is not very strong, he still has strength, which was cultivated at his uncle's and aunt's house.Besides, she also had the experience of hanging herself before, so she is not very courageous, so she is definitely not small, unlike some girls who screamed and screamed when they saw blood.  Now, no matter what, Han Qiuyun will never hang himself easily again.Once you get rid of Liang Daya's entanglement, living is indeed a very interesting thing.Only when I was eighteen or nineteen years old did I realize that I was living at the bottom of a well in the past and only saw the sky as big as a dustpan.After crossing Xigao Ridge, crossing Zhuangzi Ridge, crossing a river and walking for 120 miles, you will find another world—the sky of clouds and rosy clouds and the land of thousands of rivers and mountains that can never be seen.She actually became an anti-Japanese soldier on this land, and was soon appreciated by her immediate boss Gao Qiujiang.  Gao Qiujiang is a sharpshooter who can shoot through Yang with both left and right bows.In Han Qiuyun's view, Gao Qiujiang likes to play with pistols, just like Liang Daya likes to eat pig intestines, and Chen Mohan likes to play the huqin.When he was free and happy, Gao Qiujiang pulled out the exquisite revolver from the holster, and swung it over his head by a height of one or two feet.  有一回大约是开玩笑，齐医官惹得高秋江有点不自在了，高秋江冷冷地笑了笑，也是把枪往头顶空中抛得老高，接在手中的一瞬间，喀嚓一下就开了保险。高秋江掂着开了保险的手枪，就像掂着一根烟卷，指着齐医官的裤裆说：“姓齐的，可别光图上头快活让下头受罪。我闭着眼睛也能把你那个缩头缩脑的玩艺儿敲掉，你信不信？”  吓得齐医官脸色苍白，连声告饶。 五 一次野训完毕，高秋江叫住了韩秋云，说：“韩秋云，我看你模样长得还算标致，有劲也有胆量。你喜欢射击吗？”  韩秋云老老实实地说：“这东西以前没玩过，不知道会不会喜欢。” 高秋江又问：“韩秋云你有痛苦吗？”  韩秋云本来没有什么痛苦，倒是被这没头没脑的话弄得稀里糊涂地痛苦起来，傻乎乎地问：“痛苦是个甚么东西？就是这疼那痒吗？”  高秋江笑了笑，说：“痛苦还不光是这疼那痒。痛苦不是皮肉上的事，痛苦是心里的事。痛苦就是疼在心里。”  韩秋云倒吸了一口冷气，说：“这种病恐怕不好治。”  高秋江不再讲话，眼睛看着很远的地方，看了很大一会儿功夫，然后转过脸来说：“韩秋云，我教你打枪吧。”说完，从腰间的皮套子里抽出手枪，喀嚓一声上了膛。  韩秋云看得眼晕，多少还是有点怯乎，不知道高队长是个怎么教法。  高秋江笑笑说：“你转过身去，看着你前面的那棵桐树。”  韩秋云于是转过身去，看见了那棵桐树，心里更发毛了，又转过头来看看高秋江。 高秋江说：“你不要动啊，动一下就没有命了。”  话落枪响，前面的桐树像是猛地被人击了一掌，簌簌抖动，甩下一层露水。  韩秋云毕竟是个未经世面的妮子，枪声就从身边炸起，她差点儿被骇掉了魂。自己心里揣摸，从桐树到自己再到高队长，差不多就是一条线，高队长的枪子儿是从哪里过去的呢? 不是左边，就是右边，弄得不好张开两手就能碰上。高队长万一失手，稍微打偏一点，这条没有被吊死的小命就让高队长开了玩笑。  心里正在噗噗乱跳地想着，猛地又听见叭叭两声枪响，在韩秋云听来，这两声枪响简直就是从自己的身子里穿过去的。两枪都钉在桐树上，连同前面一个枪眼，差不多也就是上中下一条线。这一下，韩秋云不仅是不敢乱动了，连想也不敢乱想了。脑子里一片空荡荡的，嗡嗡地响。直到高秋江说了声向后转，她才收了魂回过神来转过身子。  高秋江嘘嘘地吹着枪口上的淡淡烟缕，俊俏的狐媚眼笑成了一条细缝，脸色红晕地说： “韩秋云你行啊，还算胆子大的，一般的女子，像你们班的周碧云，碰上这阵势，恐怕早就吓得尿裤子了。”  周碧云是庐州城里一个富商家里的小姐，是被她堂哥从家里骗出来的，原先说是要去延安的，也是遇上了日军进攻，断了北上西去的路线，才不得已落在刘汉英的部队里。周碧云本来年龄就小，才十五岁，胆子更小，见血就发抖。训练十多天了，连初级考核关都没能过去。  韩秋云说：“我跟人家城里的小姐不能比，人家是金枝玉叶呢。可是队长你看看，我这也是一脑门子冷汗呀。”  高秋江沉下脸说：“你知道咱们是干什么的吗？抗日是杀人的勾当，你不杀他，他就要杀你。你已经是抗日军人了，要学会杀人，要敢于杀人。打枪是最基本的功夫，你一定要学会。”  然后，从装子弹开保险说起，又讲了瞄准和击发的要领。讲了三遍，就让韩秋云练。  韩秋云端起枪，就像攥住了一条扭动的蛇，又害怕又恶心，双手抖得厉害。这阵子她真有点后悔了，自己是一个姑娘家，虽然说在蓝桥埠时连鬼都不怕，可是当真操起这个杀人的家伙，要去做那杀人的活计，那是她以往连想都不敢想的。她委实有些闹不明白，高队长也是个女人，才二十来岁，怎么会喜欢这东西？  高秋江说：“瞄准——击发。”  韩秋云左瞄右瞄，越是往前面看，前面的景物就越是模糊，那棵桐树仿佛是一个受了伤的人，流着眼泪望着她。她实在下不了手。  高秋江又严厉地喊：“韩秋云，前面是个日本兵，正在向你走过来，他要糟蹋你。赶快开枪！”  可是，不管高秋江怎样叫喊，韩秋云无论如何也看不见哪里有什么日本兵，她的两只眼睛一起睁开，这回反而把桐树看清楚了，手哆嗦了一下便抠动了扳机。自然打不上。  高秋江冷着脸走过来，一把夺过手枪，玩小把戏似的，喀嚓一声就从枪膛里跳出了一粒金光灿灿的子弹，落在高秋江的手里。高秋江把它捏在右手拇指与食指之间，举起来，朝着清晨的太阳看了看，然后，皱着眉头对韩秋云说：“你们这些人啦，还真把自己当成了小姐是不是？你如今是抗日军人了，连枪都不会放，拿什么去抗日？抗日是需要胆量和技术的。”  韩秋云红着脸，好半天才吭了一句：“高队长，我笨。”  高秋江想了想又说道：“韩秋云我给你说一件事。旅部手枪队有几个兵痞，倚仗是刘汉英身边爪牙，色胆包天，有几天晚上来摸夜螺蛳，这件事你知道么？”  韩秋云的脸更红了，嘟嘟囔囔地说：“知道，怪腻歪人的。”  所谓的夜螺蛳，是当地俗言，戏指女人的胸脯子。战地女子服务队跟旅部只隔一条小河，岗哨由女队员轮流值勤。这些女兵普遍胆小，抱着一根大枪往往像抱着一根烧火棍， 一旦有了动静，别说盘问了，自己先吓得筛糠了，让手枪队的男人们趁虚而入，有好几次潜进了院子。女兵们是两个人住一间房，有些房屋除了岗哨勤务，就只剩个把人了，还由于同伴在外面值勤，往往是不闩门的。二班的董牡丹昨夜哭着去找高秋江，说她正在做梦，不知道怎么搞的，就被被子蒙住了脑袋，摸了奶子不说，还差点儿让人家把花裤头给扯掉了。高秋江仔细看了看，董牡丹的胸前果然是青一块紫一块，芡实一般小巧的乳头边上，还有指甲掐出来的血痕。高秋江顿时怒不可遏，当夜去找刘汉英，要他整肃军纪。刘汉英一本正经地对高秋江说：你们先查，查出来枪毙。其实刘汉英是装糊涂，不用查他也知道是哪些家伙干的。可是高秋江就没有办法查了，没有证据，自然枪毙不了谁。  高秋江对韩秋云说：“今夜我来安排几个人，引蛇出洞，你算一个。晚上再有人来摸夜螺蛳，你们就给我开枪打。”  韩秋云窘得很，憋红了脸吭哧了一会儿才说：“高队长，这事能不能叫别人做？”  高秋江俊秀的眉眼跳了一下，倏忽又挤在一起了：“你怕什么，有什么好怕的？叫你打你就打呗，跟杀鸡没有什么两样。”  韩秋云苦着脸说：“可是……可是我连鸡也没有杀过呵。” 高秋江的火气又上来了，昏天黑地给了韩秋云一顿臭训：“韩秋云你要记住，姑奶奶们是女人也是抗日军人，不是那些狗娘养的兵痞们的玩物。有人敢于犯贱，上打大头下打小头。 本队长看得起你，你愿意干得干，不愿意干也得干。违抗命令，我关你的禁闭。” 韩秋云知道胳膊拧不过大腿，只好把愁在一起的脸皮松弛下来，立正回答：“是，队长， 我听你的命令。”  然后，装着很轻松很高兴的样子，接过了左轮手枪。 六 这个夜晚，韩秋云的日子就难捱了。躺在床上，自然是不敢往深里睡的。心口有些跳跳的，也有一些莫名其妙的兴奋。  以往，对于男女之间的事情，直到十六七岁了，也没有谁明确地跟韩秋云讲过，只是从成年人粗野的玩笑和那些骂人的话里知道一些。那时候，她就朦朦胧胧地琢磨，除了白日吃饭干活之外，男人和女人之间肯定还有一些别的什么事情，凭心想，她知道那是一桩极其隐秘的事情，也是一桩极其重要的事情，这样的事情是不能给别人看见的，而这样的事情又好像是人人都很看重的事情。  在这个春风燥热的特殊的夜晚，手枪队摸夜螺蛳的行径让韩秋云产生很多联想。让她想得最多最苦最累的还是几年前贺瘸子和水蛇腰做的那件事，那是在她十四岁以来第一次洞悉的一桩人间秘密。 如今她依然清晰地记得，事情是发生在老河湾独龙潭边的桑叶树下，从东往西数第五棵，这是绝对不会有错的。当时她的桑叶篮子就挂在第一棵桑树南边的枝丫上。她是一个人独自去采桑叶的，蓝桥埠上只有她肯卖力气跑远路到老河湾采桑叶。以后韩秋云自己都觉得邪乎，小的时候她的胆子是很大的，像个男孩子，越往大里长胆子反而越小了，越长越是个妮子了。 独龙潭方圆五六里都没有人家，又地处林子深处，阴森森的，一般人不大愿意到这里来。蓝桥埠人传说独龙潭里淹死过好几个人，白日里都有水鬼出来采桑椹吃。十四岁的韩秋云拗不过表婶严厉的命令，壮着胆子到这里来采桑叶。表婶认定这里的桑叶水色好，碧绿鲜嫩，蚕虫爱吃。  午后的阳光照在河水里，又映回到林子里，蒸出了满林子腐叶沤草的燠热气息。韩秋云干起活来是不惜力气的，一边干还一边哼着黄梅小调。这些小调都是在私塾馆里跟陈家兄弟学的，陈家兄弟会弄乐器还会唱，尤其是陈墨涵能拉一手好胡琴，夏天乘凉常常听他拉《孟姜女哭长城》，悠扬凄凉的琴声走街串巷，给乘凉的蓝桥埠人带去许多清凉。  那天韩秋云采桑叶正采得起劲间，正在哼着的黄梅小调儿突然就停在了嘴边。那当口，她看见了从二道河的下游逆流撑过来一个渔划子，她的眼睛就瞪大了——那不是放鱼鹰的贺瘸子么？贺瘸子也是韩秋云十分厌恶的人，为啥厌恶她自己也说不清。大妈大婶都跟她说过，妮子的胸脯子不能给男人看，更不能给男人摸。可是龟孙贺瘸子只要撞上大姑娘小媳妇，总是要低头斜眼瞅人家的胸脯子，那双小眼弯弯曲曲的像是带着生锈的钩子，刮在妮子的胸脯子上，能听见哧哧啦啦的响声，让人心里直发毛。  韩秋云忽然觉得有点不妙——在这个空旷的夏日的午后，在这样一个罕见人迹的老河湾的林里，除了自己一个么事不懂的小妮子，还来了一个贼眉鼠眼的贺瘸子，她估摸要有什么事情发生了。可是没过多久，韩秋云的心便稍微放下了。  渔划子靠滩后，先是蹦蹦达达地上来一个贺瘸子，贺瘸子走一步画半个圈，样子挺神气， 脸色也红扑扑的像是喝了二两地瓜烧。待贺瘸子把船系好后，又从芦篷舱里鬼魂一般钻出一个女人来。  韩秋云差点儿没叫了起来：天啦!是水蛇腰。  水蛇腰大名蔡秋香，因为腰姿纤细，走路一摇三摆，而得绰号“水蛇腰”，是蓝桥埠著名的风流寡妇，镇上关于水蛇腰的故事很多，不少男人吹牛打赌都说自己跟水蛇腰睡过觉。韩秋云那时候虽然不甚明了关于“睡觉”二字的深层含义，但是她隐隐约约地意识到，成年人嘴里的“睡觉”跟她所理解的上床闭眼一觉梦到天亮，恐怕不是一码子事，恐怕别有名堂。  这个晌午天，韩秋云本能地意识到，水蛇腰和贺瘸子此刻来到老河湾，肯定与那个名堂有关。贺瘸子在前精神抖擞，水蛇腰在后一摇三摆，仿佛这一片深深的林子就是他们熟门熟路的家。他们旁若无人地走上河滩，钻进了林子。  韩秋云听到自己的心口咚咚咚咚跳得厉害，好在贺瘸子和水蛇腰各有他们自己的事，没咋顾及四周。他们进到林子深处之后，选了一棵叶冠浓密的桑树，倚根坐下了。那个情景韩秋云记得好分明噢——绝对不会错的，就是从东边往西数的第五棵桑树下面。  他们在鼓捣些啥呢？  韩秋云终于弄明白了他们的到来与自己无关，不害怕了心里反倒空落落的，神差鬼使一般，她竟然从树枝上滑下来，想过去看个究竟。在以后的很长日子里， 每当想起这件事，韩秋云都无比羞愧，觉得自己真是污浊，说不清楚一个小妮子怎么会有那样下作的念头，怎么竟然会去偷看一个男人和一个女人去做那样的脏事。自己当时是咋想的，她自己也不甚了了，反正她是下了树，贼一样地蹑手蹑脚，差不多是爬过去的，在一蓬浓密的槿木丛里埋下了身子，稍微扒开一点缝隙，便看见了那对男女。  最先入目的是贺瘸子。贺瘸子在一堆落叶上铺开一件土布褂子，隐隐约约地，她听见贺瘸子说了一些让人起鸡皮疙瘩的话。她还看见了水蛇腰笑得假惺惺的，并且挤眉弄眼地哼着，那副贱样子就像林子里的一只浪荡的鬼。  再往后，韩秋云就记不清他们说了些什么做了些什么，她的眼睛像是被什么东西猛然扎了一下，她看见褪了衣裳的贺瘸子像是一条蜕了皮的蛇。  她不敢再看下去了，心里想着龌龊，想赶紧逃开这里，可是腿却不听使唤，眼睛也死死地僵着不肯挪动地方，于是乎她看见了她永远感到羞耻的那一幕。  直到三年之后，韩秋云的头脑里还悬挂着那如痉如挛如疯如癫的胳膊。那是水蛇腰淫荡的胳膊。  在蓝桥埠的岁月里，没有比水蛇腰更让韩秋云厌恶的人了。韩秋云听人家风言风语，梁大牙和水蛇腰也不干净。每当想起梁大牙同水蛇腰在一起，她就似乎看见了水蛇腰的那只白得晃眼的胳膊，就恶心得要吐。   这个晚上韩秋云无论如何是不能入睡了。她觉得高队长交给她的这个任务真是害苦了她。脑子里乱极了，有时甚至觉得那些男人也真是可恨又可怜。她想男人之所以肯冒着风险来摸夜螺蛳，想必这件事对于男人来说是有意思的，也许女人的夜螺蛳生来就是让男人摸的。越想越觉得有点怪怪的。想想看吧，人真是一个很奇怪的东西，譬如说那样的事，恐怕是人人都要做的，也恐怕是人人都想做的，人人都要做人人都想做的事情偏偏又让它最不能见人，可是最见不得人的事情偏偏又有那么多人想去做。 又譬如，像男人和女人身上的物件，最金贵的似乎就是那些最见不得人的，最金贵的却又往往连个名儿都不肯说，一说出来不仅不金贵，而且成了骂人的污浊话。蓝桥埠人在谈论那件事的时候，都露出厌恶鄙夷的神气，仿佛见着就跳，要跳出十万八千里，可是——可是连韩秋云都不以为真，她懵懵懂懂地觉得那些鄙夷和厌恶大都很虚假，像是为了遮掩什么，像是闭着眼睛说瞎话呢。  实在是想不明白了，想得脑袋瓜子生疼。韩秋云这时候还不是一个很有文化的人，所以她不可能从理论上去弄明白那件事到底是怎么回事。她只是有很多半生不熟的疑问，然而连半生不熟的答案也没有。当她猛然想起高秋江交待给她的任务时，她的汗毛便立马竖了起来。  韩秋云惊惊乍乍地又想到，假如今晚来摸夜螺蛳的那个人是个飞檐走壁武艺高强的人，自己还没有瞅见他的人影，就被他摁住了，那该咋办呢？她的脑子里立刻出现了十分恐怖的一幕——一个蒙脸大汉从天而降，首先堵住了她的嘴巴，然后捆住了她的手脚，再往后剥光了她的衣裳，让她身上的那几处不想让别人看见的宝贝物件都像鸭子一样浮出水面，然后……然后人家要做的事情她没有经历过，她想恐怕就像贺瘸子和水蛇腰做过的那件事一样， 一个男人游进了她的身子，不同的是这不是她自己情愿的，自然不会像贺瘸子和水蛇腰做得那样利索，她想那有可能很疼痛，就像骨头扎进肉里一样疼痛，她要是能够喊得出来，就一定会喊破嗓子，绝不会像水蛇腰那样喊出那种浪声浪气来。  黑暗中，韩秋云攥住了高秋江交给她的那柄左轮小手枪。枪膛里有四粒子弹。高秋江吩咐过，情况不紧急时不开枪，情况紧急时坚决开枪。  到了鸡叫三遍的时候，韩秋云实在是挡不住瞌睡了，不管他娘的三七二十一就睡着了。  这时候她倒是当真看见了一个男人，白白的，高高挑挑的，他就是陈墨涵的二哥陈克训。同窗的时候她跟他说话他的脸就有些红，可这回他长成大男人了，他不再是那个穿着学生制服的翩翩少年了，他穿一身笔挺威风的国军军官制服。他走过来搂着她要跟她亲嘴儿，她的双手拼命地往外推他，却不知道是怎么搞的，无论如何也使不上劲。后来他就揽住了她的腰， 把她放倒在老河湾独龙潭林子里的桑叶上。他的手起先伸进她胸窝的痒痒处，接着又往下滑动，扯住了她的裤腰带。她想扯出裤腰带抽他一个满脸开花，可是等到裤腰带抽出来后，扬在头顶上却又轻轻地飘下来。她想张嘴喊，可是喊声到了嘴边就变成了蚊子哼哼，就像水蛇腰哼出的那种浪荡声。这阵子她已经不知道天是白的还是黑的，云朵是蓝的还是绿的，浑身的皮肉紧绷绷的成了石头疙瘩…… 再往后她就不再推他也不再动弹了，静静地死了一样地等着他。等他来做他想做的事情……等了一会儿不见有啥动静，再睁开眼时就骇得毛骨悚然——她看见面前换了一张狞笑着的粗糙的脸，一颗白森森的门牙戳上了她的鼻尖。她在扑面而来的大蒜混合着烧酒的气味中听到了一个阴阳怪气的声音：“老子……有钱买你的……那……那个！”  枪声，就在这个时候响了起来。
