The puppet Manchukuo has been established for more than three years, and the Japanese army is stepping up its encirclement and suppression of the anti-Japanese armed forces in the three eastern provinces.

At the same time, the Japanese army was eyeing the North China area again. Fortunately, the 29th Army arrived in time, and the enemy and we formed a confrontation situation again.

The war situation in the north has been stabilized for the time being.

However, the foreign war in the north stabilized, but the civil war in the northwest started again.

The fourteenth year of the Republic of China, Shaanxi.

"When you say this flat place, you say it's not cold. If you stay there for a long time, it's still cold. Say it's cold. It's not the same as the cold place at our house!" Qian Chuan'er, holding a rifle in his arms, pushed the door.

Entered the house.

The room was always warmer than outside. Wang Laomao was smoking, Shang Zhen was reading a book, and Ma Erhuzi was sleeping on the kang.

Seeing that no one in the room was paying attention to him, Qian Chuan'er approached Shang Zhen: "The company commander can't read anymore, and there's no one else around now. Tell me what's going on!"

When Qian Chuan said this, he saw Shang Zhen looking at him, and he drew a five-pointed star shape in the air.

"You ask me who should I ask? You'd better ask Uncle Wang about this!" Shang Zhen declined.

"Tell me, Uncle Wang!" Qian Chuan'er moved closer to Mr. Wang again, but Mr. Wang rolled his eyes and said, "I don't know. When I was working as a beard in the Northeast, what happened to our family?"

There’s nothing like that!”

"Look at you two?" Qian Chuan'er complained. He leaned the rifle against the wall and was about to get on the bed.

It has been more than a year since Shang Zhen and the others arrived in Shaanxi with the Seventh Brigade.

The Northeastern Army, which originally belonged to the Northeast, has moved to the Northwest, so what is there to do?

Right here in northern Shaanxi, there is a revolutionary base established by the Communist Party of China.

In other words, when the Northeastern Army comes over, it will be a civil war.

Fortunately, the 7th Brigade arrived late. After they arrived in this area, they learned from the grapevine that two divisions of their Northeastern Army had been wiped out by the Red Army!

And their brigade was one of the troops that came to replace those two divisions.

Officers and soldiers like Shang Zhen and others, who were at the lowest level, were extremely shocked when they heard the news.

Do we in China still have such a capable army? Two entire divisions were crippled even though they were not completely wiped out.

Because the rumor said that the Red Army fighting those two divisions only had 3,000 people. Although Shang Zhen and the others couldn't figure out how many people there were in those two divisions, they estimated that there were always 10,000 people in the two divisions, right?

Ten thousand against three thousand weapons are stronger than others. It is said that there are mortars, but they were destroyed and disabled by others. How strong must their combat effectiveness be!

As soon as they heard that the Chinese were attacking the Chinese Shang Zhen, they didn't want to fight.

When Shang Zhen was reading newspapers in Tianjin, he saw that the Red Army was called "bandits" in the newspaper, but the superiors and the superiors all talked about communism and the sharing of wives. In this regard, Shang Zhen

I don't believe it at all.

But it's not up to them to decide whether to fight or not. Fortunately, Shang Zhen and his company still have the same strength, although they still have the same thirty or so people.

They didn't know what brigade commander Liu Chengyi was thinking. Instead of sending their company out to investigate the situation, they placed them next to the brigade headquarters and asked them to stand guard with the guard company every day.

They were fed, clothed and warmed every day, and they could live in a house. Although Shang Zhen still had the thirty or so people in the entire company undergo physical training every day, it was still better than fighting a civil war.

But today Qian Chuan'er thought of the Chinese opponents they were about to face, and there were only four of them in the room that served as a sentry post, so he asked.

The five-pointed star he drew represents the five-pointed star sewn from cloth that is said to be on the hats of those soldiers.

You must know that no one like Shang Zhen usually talks about such topics, because such words are taboo in the Northeast Army.

But as Shang Zhen and Wang Laomao answered, they really didn't know much about the Communist Party and the Red Army.

Wang Laomao has been in the Northeastern Army. At that time, the three northeastern provinces were not the main scope of activities of the Communist Party. At least, he had only heard of the Communist Party occasionally, but he thought it was far away from him and didn't take it to heart.

Not to mention Shang Zhen, the September 18th Incident happened the day after he joined the army and he immediately joined the war.

If Shang Zhen knew anything about the Communist Party, he only saw a leaflet in the hand of a soldier when he was helping the brigade headquarters move things.

It is said that the leaflet is a propaganda material of the Communist Party. It says "Stop the civil war and unite to fight against the outside world!" "Brothers from the Northeast Army! Fight back to your hometown!"

These two slogans certainly touched Shang Zhen's heart.

But after all, Shang Zhen was no longer the novice he was when he first joined the army, not to mention that he now had a "long" hanging on the back of his butt, so he just glanced at it and pretended not to see it, and looked calm.

But even if Shang Zhen didn't take a stand, who in his company would be willing to fight a civil war?

The logic is very simple. If you fight Japan, even if you die in battle, you will leave a good reputation for yourself. But what if you fight a civil war with the Chinese and get killed?

"Oh, I'm talking about two officers, you two just tell me, it makes me feel so uncomfortable!" Qian Chuan'er saw that the two people were silent, so he said again.

"Then what's the point of throwing it around? Damn it! It's obvious what's happening right in front of you!" Mr. Wang was annoyed by the string of money.

"It's obvious, but I can't see through it! Please give me some advice from Old Uncle Wang!" Qian Chuan'er saw that Mr. Wang meant what he said, and quickly complimented him.

"The eldest brother and the second eldest brother in the family are fighting for the family property, but now an outsider comes in and wants to compete with the two brothers for the family property? What do you think we should do?" Mr. Wang said angrily.

"Of course the eldest and second eldest brother and their gang beat the outsider away, and then they continued to argue." Qian Chuan'er replied matter-of-factly.

Qian Chuan'er was not a stupid person. He understood the meaning of Mr. Wang's words as soon as he heard them.

It's just that Mr. Wang himself doesn't know that his metaphor is simply a prophecy, but it is completely consistent with the future direction of China!

"Then why do we have to fight?" Qian Chuan'er didn't understand.

Just when Mr. Wang was about to say something more, the door was pushed open and a soldier ran in and said: "Company Commander Shang, the Brigade Commander is looking for you and tells you to go right away!"

Shang Zhen, who was reading a book, quickly closed the book, stood up and went out.

"I'm so anxious. Is there something going on? You don't want us to go out to investigate, right?" Qian Chuan'er muttered after the two people came out of the house.

"I wish I had known that the reconnaissance company and the guard company could be integrated directly, so that we wouldn't have to go to the battlefield easily!" Mr. Wang sighed.

And this is the helplessness of small soldiers like them. As the saying goes, soldiers are guns in the hands of those in power. You have to shoot wherever they tell you. If you dare to disobey, you are a deserter, and you will engage in military law.

.

Half an hour later, Shang Zhen ran into the room and said: "Gather everyone in our company, we have a mission!"

"What mission?" Wang Laomao and Qian Chuan'er asked in unison.
Chapter completed!
