    Shimada's troops were the first Japanese and puppet troops to enter the base area, and those facing him head-on were the main force of the Eighth Route Army Yuan Dabeard.

    Although Yuan Dabeard does not have heavy firepower such as mortars, the soldiers in his hands are all elite soldiers, many of whom are old Eighth Route Army soldiers they brought from the rear. The fighting spirit and individual combat capabilities of these soldiers are naturally  Very strong, so they were not at a disadvantage in the entangled battle with the Japanese.  .

    In addition to regular troops, Yuan Dabeard also has a large number of militiamen.  These troops and militiamen took guerrilla tactics to the extreme, and Shimada's troops seemed to be in constant combat these days.

    Because Tubal Road was constantly harassing, Shimada spent his time being attacked and then counterattacking.  But when Shimada and the others were really determined to capture the main force of the Eighth Route Army, they suddenly left again. In Shimada's eyes, the main force of the Eighth Route Army became a team that could be seen but could not be eaten.  After entering the Eighth Route Base Area, Shimada and the soldiers could not eat or sleep well. The team's fatigue became increasingly obvious, and it was almost impossible to support them.

    The Japanese are sweeping up the nearby areas, and the ninth detachment is of course also vigilant. Li Qinglin and the others have been paying attention to the battle situation here.  Li Qinglin also breathed a sigh of relief when he learned that Liu Zhenghong had completely escaped from the encirclement and Shimada, who was deep in the hinterland of the Eighth Route Army, was in deep trouble.

    The officers of the Ninth Detachment were deeply impressed by the Eighth Route Army's tactics of using fewer enemies to defeat more enemies, using weak enemies to be stronger, and being able to save the defeat in critical situations. Li Qinglin also specially instructed Lieutenant General Han Ji to summarize the tactics of the Eighth Route Counter-mopping up. This  The summary was eventually distributed to the troops as a classic textbook for study.

    The Japs are carrying out a sweep in the base area. The base area is in a mess. From time to time, you can see black smoke rising into the sky from the Japs setting fire to houses.  The common people basically followed the Eighth Route Army's covering troops and left, and those who stayed were generally militiamen.  However, not all those who stayed were militiamen. For example, Jin Erleng also stayed, but Jin Erleng did not belong to the militia organization.  Because in the eyes of some people, people like Jin Erleng are not even considered the basic masses.

    Jin Erlang had a gun in his hand.  This gun and the bullets were given to Jin Erlang by Li Qinglin and others, and they are in good condition.  Good guns like this are rare even among the Eighth Route Army, let alone equipped with a hundred rounds of ammunition. Therefore, the guerrilla group of village soldiers who were short of guns and ammunition decided to use it.

    Jin Erlang got this gun not long ago.  Zhang Gouwa, leader of the militia team, found Jin Erlang.

    Jin Erleng's parents died young, and Jin Erleng, who is single, is not a bad person, but he is not an honest farmer either. Jin Erleng doesn't disdain to do things like sneaking around, but fights are commonplace among the villagers.  In his eyes, Jin Er was just a restless and unruly barbarian.  Zhang Gouwa was Jin Er's childhood friend.  He was still a good playmate when he was a child, but now he is a little scared of Jin Er Leng, so he is cautious when talking to Jin Er Leng.

    "I'm stunned, this is such a good gun!" Zhang Gouwa praised sincerely, stroking the polished gun body with his hand.

    Jin Erling took great care of this gun. Not only did he polish the gun, he even held it in his arms when he slept at night. Zhang Gouwa's praise made Jin Erling very proud.

    "No matter how good a gun is, it's just a gun! It's only a gun for fighting Japanese invaders. That's a useful gun." Zhang Gouwa said with a hint of meaning.

    Although Jin Erleng is a rough man, it does not mean that he is a fool. Hear Zhang Gouwa talk like this.  He glared and said, "Zhang Gouwa, what do you mean?"

    Ever since Zhang Gouwa became the leader of the militia group, no one has called him "Gouwa" anymore. Everyone in the village respectfully calls him "Team Leader Zhang" when they see him. Now Jin Er Leng suddenly calls him "Team Leader Zhang".  "Zhang Gouwa", Captain Zhang was really unhappy about this.

    "You fool, what do you mean by asking? Then I will tell you, you should hand in this gun. We Eighth Route Army and militiamen will use this gun to fight the Japanese. Only then will this gun be considered useful." Zhang Gouwa  Say these words firmly.

    "Turn it in? Why should you hand it in?" Jin Erleng shouted.  "This gun was given to me by **, and it belongs to me. Why do you want me to hand it over to you?"

    "Why? Just because you are still a Chinese, and just because the Eighth Route Army is sincere in fighting the Japanese." Zhang Gouwa often participated in the political studies of the Eighth Route Army, so he was not weak verbally.

    "Fighting the Japanese? Isn't this gun in my hand just for fighting the Japanese?" Jin Erleng retorted.

    "Now is the national war of resistance. If you don't hand over your weapons, you will be sabotaging the war of resistance! This kind of behavior is a traitor!" Seeing that he could not convince Jin Erlang, Zhang Gouwa said a little angrily.

    Zhang Gouwa is also a peasant who cannot read a single word. He only has a smattering of theories after participating in political studies, so reasoning is not his strong point.?

    The militiamen are now extremely short of weapons, but they cannot fight the Japanese with bare hands. In order to solve the equipment problem, all the guns and blunderbuss in the hands of the common people were collected.  The militiamen were indeed interested in the good gun in Jin Erlang's hand, but it was privately owned after all. Therefore, before Zhang Gouwa came, they had already discussed and asked Zhang Gouwa to use reason to persuade Jin Erlang to volunteer.  Hand over the gun.  Unexpectedly, Zhang Gouwa is also a guy who can't hold his breath. After a few words, he started to use his big hat to suppress people.

    "Traitor?" Jin Erleng glared and shouted, "Zhang Gouwa, do you feel guilty for saying this? You probably haven't forgotten, right? I seized a box cannon just a few months ago  , I handed it over to the Eighth Route Army in front of you. It¡¯s okay if you don¡¯t praise me, but now you are calling me a traitor.¡±

    Speaking of this, Jin Erlang remembered the last time he single-handedly risked his life to seize a gun from a traitor and had to hand it over in the end. Thinking of that experience, Jin Erlang became extremely angry.  Come on, he cursed with red eyes: "You little Zhang Gouwa, I fought to the death to grab a gun and handed it over to the Eighth Route Army. It's fine if you don't praise me and don't let me become a militiaman. Now you've turned me into a militiaman."  He has become a traitor. Is there a militia leader like you? Are you still an Eighth Route militia member?"

    Jin Erlang became more and more angry as he spoke. He snatched the gun from Zhang Gouwa's hand, then pointed at the door and said: "Okay, if you treat me as a traitor, then we have nothing to say."  , you go, go!¡±

    Jin Erleng's attack was sudden, and in his anger he also made a big move. The gun's belt was pulled up, and it was swept into Zhang Gouwa's face.

    This time it was like being slapped in the face and it hurt so much. Militia captain Zhang Gouwa had never been so unreasonable before. He finally became angry and said: "Jin Erleng, you bastard, don't toast me and you will be fined. We  The guys in the hands of the militia are not vegetarians either"

    Zhang Gouwa¡¯s words aroused Jin Erleng¡¯s anger even more. He picked up the gun, pulled the bolt, cocked the gun, and shouted: ¡°Zhang Gouwa, are you toasting? Are you still a militiaman¡±

    The bachelor Jin Erlang is a fool. He often does things like dancing with knives, punching and kicking with sticks. When he is angry, Jin Erlang is capable of doing anything. This is well-known in this village.  Seeing the discord, Zhang Gouwa no longer cared about his status as the leader of the militia group, let alone his own image, and finally ran away in embarrassment.

    Since then, Jin Erlang has completely become a weirdo in the eyes of the militiamen.  Although Jin Erleng is not a traitor, he is definitely not one of our own, so everyone thinks that this guy is soft and hard, and he is just like a stone in the pit - smelly and hard.

    Take this Japanese raid as an example. The militiamen have come to notify Jin Erlang to evacuate, but Jin Erlang said he would never leave.  According to the usual attitude towards ordinary people, militiamen or village cadres would come back to do Jin Erlang's ideological work at this time, but no one came to mobilize again, so Jin Erlang became a free man in the complete sense, and everyone seemed to  They were all leaving him to fend for himself.

    Jin Erlang was unwilling to withdraw with the Eighth Route Army this time. This had his own reasons.

    Jin Erlang is single and has several acres of land. Apart from a shabby thatched house and a gun, he has nothing else. Therefore, for Jin Erlang, as long as he runs away alone, his whole family will be affected.  It's safe.  Jin Erlang is only in his early twenties this year. Being strong, he thinks that he has nimble legs and feet, and he can easily escape even if the Japanese come, not to mention he has a good gun in his hand.

    Although Jin Erlang has some food at home, the food is only enough for him to eat alone, so the quantity is not large.  Jin Erlang hid the limited food. When the Japanese finally came, Jin Erlang took the cornmeal pancakes prepared last night, then put his gun on his back and went up the mountain to hide alone.

    This is a hilly area with many half-high mountains, caves of varying depths, and even empty tombs. It would be difficult to find a single man hiding in the mountains.

    The Japanese did come. They fought with the Eighth Route Army for a while and then left quickly.  Jin Er, who was hiding in the mountain, heard the gunshots like popping beans and the continuous explosions. Knowing that the Japanese were coming with great force this time, he naturally did not dare to go out to watch the fun. Even after the gunfire subsided, he hid in  Mountain.  Since the Japanese are so powerful, who knows if they will leave some soldiers in the village?

    Although Jin Erleng did not retreat with the Eighth Route Army, he did not dare to come out and confront the invading Japanese and puppet troops, so Jin Erleng stayed in the mountain for three days.

    During these three days, Jin Er was hiding in a hidden cave.  This cave was very dry. Jin Er was stunned and laid thick thatch in the cave. In the past three days, he only ate and slept.

    Eat, sleep, sleep??, Jin Er was very comfortable, but on the third day, Jin Er had to go down the mountain because he had eaten all the cornmeal pancakes he had brought with him.
