While the two soldiers were anxiously looking for Shen Wenyue everywhere, Shen Wenyue continued to observe everywhere at the 251st Regiment station.
She enjoys the process of conducting secret investigations independently from a personal perspective as a free person.
Because she always believes that as a conscientious reporter who dares to tell the truth and confirm facts, through this kind of secret investigation, she can witness the truth with her own eyes.
Journalists in the Republic of China were very courageous, and Shen Wenyue naturally had senior journalists whom she admired, who were upright and full of pride.
For example, Mr. Huang Yuansheng, whom she admires most, was the editor-in-chief of the "Yongyan" monthly magazine founded by Mr. Liang, and served as a special correspondent for Shanghai's Shenbao, "The Times" and "Oriental Daily".
Famous for "Yuansheng Communication", he is known as "China's first truly modern journalist" and one of the pioneers of new literature in modern times.
Known as:
A famous journalist and a pioneer of the literary revolutionary movement.
He was famous for his courage to criticize current affairs and his lack of fear of the powerful. As a result, he was killed, but he died without regrets.
When Shen Wenyue was a student, she made up her mind to be a free journalist who dares to participate in major political, military and social activities with a positive attitude towards the world, and to contribute her own modest efforts to the destiny of the nation and the country.
.
This may explain why, despite her parents' opposition, she gave up her wealthy family and resolutely joined the journalism profession, and was often active on the front lines of the Anti-Japanese War.
She wanted to serve as the eyes of the people and witness how the soldiers on the front line bravely killed the enemy, fought against the Japanese aggressors, and defended their homeland.
She also wants to pass on this fearless spirit.
Let the people know that there are still groups of warriors on the front line, working hard for the destiny of the country.
Therefore, Shen Wenyue, who was born as the eldest lady, also has the heroism and boldness similar to that of a heroine.
For example, by going to the toilet, I got rid of the soldiers who were watching me and secretly visited the 251st Regiment.
Shen Wenyue now wants to go to the soldiers' general shop and ask the soldiers who participated in the Taiyuan City battle what the situation was like at that time.
At this moment, a voice came from not far away and stopped her.
"Reporter Shen!"
When Shen Wenyue heard this voice, she couldn't help but feel a thump in her heart. The secret passage was terrible, it was discovered!
She turned around and saw a strange face that she had never seen before, like a soldier from the 251st Regiment.
"Hello, may I have a question?"
Shen Wenyue asked with a smile. She thought quickly in her mind about how to respond. For example, the other party asked her why she appeared here, what she was doing here, and where the two soldiers who followed her were, and so on. Who would have thought that this soldier with an unfamiliar face just looked around and saw no one else, and then quickly pushed something in his hand towards Shen Wenyue.
Shen Wenyue, who took the thing in his hand in a daze, was still a little unable to recover.
The soldier said: "Reporter Shen, sometimes what you see with your eyes may not be true, because it is just what others want you to see. As a big reporter, you should understand this.
Here's some film someone asked me to give you.
After you take it back and wash it out privately, I think you will be interested in the contents."
Shen Wenyue was startled, but quickly came to her senses. This kind of thing is not uncommon. After the news newspaper office has gradually developed over the years, there are also many people who come to deliver information, secretly deliver information, etc., which can be called newspaper offices. Informant.
Thinking of this, Shen Wenyue quickly stuffed the film in her hand into her pocket.
"By the way, do you know how to get to the general store of the soldiers?"
The soldier said: "Journalists also need to pay attention to their own safety. Reporter Shen, you should go back to where you should be first!"
"Also, I hope you won't tell anyone else about the film I gave you."
"Of course." Shen Wenyue said.
The soldier nodded, then turned and left. This was naturally a comrade from the Independent Regiment's enemy Ministry of Industry lurking in the 251st Regiment.
After the soldiers left, Shen Wenyue tightened the film in her pocket through her clothes, and thoughtfully turned around to return to the previous farmhouse.
From a distance, Shen Wenyue noticed the two soldiers who had accompanied her before, looking around the farmhouse.
After Shen Wenyue walked over, the two soldiers quickly asked.
"Reporter Shen, where have you been? You scared us to death. We thought we had lost you."
"That's right, Reporter Shen, if you want to go somewhere, let us know!"
"Our group has repeatedly told us that we should accompany Reporter Shen."
Shen Wenyue smiled and said: "Sorry to cause you trouble. I just felt a little stuffy in the house. I went out for a walk. I didn't go very far. Come on, let's go back. It's really cold outside."
"Oh, by the way, if Captain Lu knows about my private departure, you two will not be punished."
"I'll just pretend that I haven't left. No one else has seen it anyway. It's up to you what to say."
Shen Wenyue took the initiative to return to the house, with two soldiers following behind. She thought that this was indeed a good idea.
After staying in the house for another half an hour, Lu Daxian came back with the team in a pretentious manner.
As usual, Shen Wenyue said that she hoped to interview the soldiers who participated in the battle of Taiyuan City, but naturally Lu Duoxian made excuses to refuse.
Shen Wenyue did not insist, and said with a smile that she would come back for the interview when the time is convenient next time.
Afterwards, Lu Duoxian led the officers to send Shen Wenyue away in person.
After returning, Lu Duoxian found the two soldiers guarding Shen Wenyue and asked with a straight face: "Didn't this little bitch run around during the trip?"
"Yes, Mr. Shen, reporter Shen has been staying in the house to warm himself by the fire!"
A way.
The other soldier nodded quickly.
Lu Daoxian breathed a sigh of relief and smiled: "That's good!"
But it was said that after Shen Wenyue returned to the newspaper office, she did not disclose to others that she had received the films. Instead, she secretly found a photo studio run by a friend and developed the films.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Just like that, when Shen Wenyue came out of the photo studio with great expectations, the smile had already disappeared from her face.
After returning to the newspaper office, the editor-in-chief of the "Anti-Japanese National Daily" greeted Shen Wenyue: "Wenyue, did you go to the 251st Group for on-site interviews again?"
"Yeah!"
"How about it? Is there any new material? In the next issue of the newspaper, what other anti-Japanese content can we add to the 251st Regiment?"
"Nowadays, wars are going on everywhere. Finally, the 251st Regiment appears and fights bravely against the Japanese invaders. This is something that the people are looking forward to."
Shen Wenyue said: "Editor-in-chief, I would like to pause for a moment regarding the continuation of the report on the heroic resistance of the 251st Regiment against Japan."
"Oh? What's wrong?"
"It's not convenient to tell you at the moment, but please wait for me for a few days and I will figure things out."
The editor didn't think much and nodded: "Okay!"
……
……
Independent group.
Wang An reported the situation to Kong Jie, "Captain, the matter has been settled and the film has been handed over to reporter Shen. As for what will happen next, we will just wait and see."
Kong Jie nodded and said: "This is one thing. In addition, tell the comrades from the enemy's engineering department who are lurking in the 251st Regiment to be alert to the movements of the 251st Regiment at all times. Once they sense that the 251st Regiment is secretly hiding again, If there are any signs of surrender to the Japanese army, report them immediately to the regiment headquarters."
"Yes!"
"Okay, go and do your work!"
"Yes!"
……
Not long after Wang An left, the monk's loud voice came from outside the courtyard, "Commander, commander, go and have a look, good guy, the fifth battalion has killed a big wild boar!"
The voice came in first, and then the monk opened the curtain and walked in.
"Commander, let's go to the Fifth Battalion station to see the wild boar they shot?"
The Fifth Battalion shot wild boars, which was a rare thing. Kong Jie nodded, and together with the monk, rushed towards the Fifth Battalion's station.
When they arrived at the place, the soldiers were already surrounding the wild boar.
"Captain!"
"The leader is here!"
"Commander, come and take a look, the wild boars our fifth battalion shot are quite big!"
Seeing Kong Jie coming over, the fifth battalion commander Du Aiguo quickly came over and said.
"Where did you get the fight?"
Kong Jie asked, looking towards the big wild boar that fell to the ground and stained the ground with a pool of blood.
This wild boar is indeed not small, it is estimated to weigh about 200 kilograms. It is full of bullet holes. It seems that it took many bullets before it fell.
"It was shot on the mountain south of our base. This is a wild boar that our instructor personally led the team to hunt."
Li Wenjie came over with a smile and explained: "Captain, recently some villagers reported that the crops grown in the wasteland reclaimed at the foot of the southern mountain have traces of being crossed by wild boars.
I will take the soldiers to try my luck.
In addition, our troops' marksmanship training has not fallen behind during this period. Although reloading ammunition is used, it cannot be wasted.
So I thought, instead of wasting our live-fire training on target practice, it would be better to use it on wild boars.
This wild boar is a living creature and can run very fast. It requires higher marksmanship and is closer to actual combat.
If you can even hit the wild boar, you won't be afraid of not being able to hit the little devil on the battlefield.
It just so happened that wild boars were harming the crops of the villagers at the foot of the mountain recently. We hunted wild boars and eliminated the damage for the villagers. Not only did we practice marksmanship, but we also climbed the mountain to exercise our physical fitness while chasing wild boars. We also got some pork to prepare.
New Year's goods, isn't this a good thing?"
Kong Jie laughed and said: "Wenjie, you are the one with the most evil ideas. I think this is a good idea."
"In this way, not only the fifth battalion, but other troops have also taken action to gather together the soldiers who were hunters in our team. Under their leadership, we will hunt game in the surrounding mountains, practice marksmanship, and exercise physical fitness.
, prepare some New Year goods by the way."
Li Wenjie said: "Captain, I have another suggestion."
"Oh, you said."
"We have already disturbed the villagers by coming to Niukou Village. The wild animals on this mountain, whether they are wild boars, hares, or pheasants, although they are wild animals, are still around the village and are resources for the villagers.
It’s okay for us to go up to the mountains and hunt wild boars or something like that, but after we catch them, we have to share some with the villagers.”
Kong Jie agreed: "This is what we should do. Fortunately, you reminded us that when our team was in the most difficult time, when we were stationed in the base area, the boss told us not to pick leaves around the root field, but to leave the leaves to the villagers. We, the Eighth Route Army, are the people’s soldiers, and we must never forget this at any time.”
"Yes——"
The soldiers responded in unison.
When leaving the Fifth Battalion station, Kong Jie was accompanied by Monk Wei, the instructor of the Fifth Battalion Li Wenjie, the Commander of the Fifth Battalion Li Aiguo, and the Deputy Commander of the Fifth Battalion Zhu Wu.
The destination is some villages in the Wuying garrison.
Zhangjiazhuang.
Kong Jie and his party stepped on the snow on the ground and knocked on the door of a farmhouse. After a moment, the wooden door opened. An old man over five years old looked at Kong Jie and laughed, "Commander Kong is here! Everyone, hurry up.
When we came in, there was a coal fire in the house, just in time to warm up."
"Haha, old Uncle Zhang, excuse me for disturbing you." Kong Jie said with a smile.
"I'm sorry to bother you, Commander Kong. If you can come and sit down at my house, my heart will be sweeter than eating honey!"
Everyone was chatting and laughing, and was welcomed into the house by the village chief, Uncle Zhang. Uncle Zhang found a few benches, and everyone sat around the coal stove burning honeycomb briquettes, stretching out their hands to light the fire.
"Uncle Zhang, does this coal stove work well?" Kong Jie asked with a smile while lighting the fire.
Old Uncle Zhang said happily: "It's so easy to use. I've never seen anything so easy to use. With this thing, how can we worry about the cold in winter? It can warm the fire and boil water. The most important thing is that it is convenient and can be pressed on at will."
A piece of coal will still be burning when you wake up the next day, which is much more convenient than starting a stove to make a fire yourself.
I live alone, and with this thing, my life doesn’t have to be so troublesome.
Commander Kong, you are really amazing, you can research this kind of thing!"
Kong Jie said: "As long as it's easy to use, by the way, Uncle Zhang, is there anyone else in our village who doesn't have this coal stove?"
Old Uncle Zhang said: "Yes, yes! Every household has it. Blacksmith Zhang at the entrance of the village has been working all day long. We don't have many households in this village, so we don't need much."
"Speaking of the young blacksmith Zhang, he has found a living. He will just make this stove all day long, and sell some briquettes. If he has nothing to do, he can go to the county town and sell them, and he can make a lot of money!"
"Let me tell you, your Eighth Route Army spent too much money. Not only did you send us this coal stove, but you also taught the blacksmith in the village how to make the stove. Doesn't this mean we are stealing business? Why don't you Eighth Route Army get it yourself?
You sell money in the county town, and if you get something, you can fight the Japanese."
Kong Jie said with a smile: "Uncle Zhang, you are wrong. When will our Eighth Route Army be the richest? That will naturally be when the people in our base area become rich, and then our Eighth Route Army will be the richest."
"The lives of the villagers have improved, and the villagers have something to eat. When our Eighth Route Army is really in extremely difficult times, can we still starve to death?"
Uncle Zhang laughed like a child.
"Commander Kong, you are right. When our villagers are really needed, even if we are hungry, we must raise all the anti-Japanese rations for our Eighth Route Army comrades!"
"Why?"
"Who treats us well and who treats us badly? We, the people, have a weighing scale in our hearts!
Captain Kong, when you came to our generation, you first bought copper coins, which was simply giving us money for free.
Then they set up militia units in each village to protect the villages and solve various problems for the villagers.
Even the comrades of the Eighth Route Army came to help when there was no need for needlework in daily life. What else can we say about such an army?
Ever since your independent group arrived in this area, the devils, puppet soldiers, and bandits have never dared to come to the village to harass you. How long has it been since the villagers lived such a stable life?
I, Lao Zhang, don’t understand other things, but I believe that as long as our Eighth Route Army comrades are here, sooner or later the little devils will be driven away, and sooner or later, our lives will become easier.”
...When leaving Old Uncle Zhang's house, all the cadres were a little emotional, as Old Uncle Zhang's last words seemed to still be echoing in their ears.
Du Aiguo, commander of the fifth battalion who was once the commander of the North China Security Corps, couldn't help but sigh: "Commander, now I really understand why our Eighth Route Army has grown all the way to this day, not the National Army, not the Jinsui Army.
The army is here."
"With such a force that sincerely serves the people, why shouldn't it grow stronger?"
Kong Jie said: "Well said, Lao Du, the fact that you can say these words proves that you are aware.
Our Eighth Route Army has been able to reach this day because we have always upheld the belief that our Eighth Route Army can never leave the people. If the Eighth Route Army leaves the people, can it still be called the Eighth Route Army?"
"Wenjie, as I said before, you should be more careful about the briquettes and coal stoves."
"Our independent group now has a way to make money, so we must never forget the people. This is the principle of never forgetting the people who dug the wells."
"If we have money, let's make it together. If we get rich, let's make it together!"
"The village will train more blacksmiths. If there is a shortage of materials and equipment, we will find a way.
This kind of simple coal stove can be built in every village.
In addition, we also send some of the coal we mine to the villagers, so that the villagers can produce their own coal stoves and briquettes, and they can also take them to the county town to earn some money to support their families."
"It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish."
"This coal stove is made of simple materials and is not a rare thing. The villagers took the coal stove, sold it in the county town, and then bought back the materials for making the coal stove, and started some business, which can somewhat boost the economy of the entire village."<
/p>
"In addition, on the premise that we ensure the stability of the base area, we encourage villagers to vigorously reclaim wasteland and plant crops."
"There are wars everywhere these days, and food is always fundamental."
"Yes!" Li Wenjie responded.
Kong Jie continued: "Oh, by the way, the Chinese New Year is coming soon. On the one hand, our base must seize the time to prepare New Year's goods.
This tense string has been fought for a year, and at the end of the year, it is time for the soldiers to relax.
In addition, the surrounding villages and villagers are also concerned about the living conditions of the villagers. If any household is in difficulty or has insufficient New Year supplies, please provide more help and subsidies.
Finally, there is the issue of the Japanese and the traitors. During the Chinese New Year, it would be outrageous not to give some gifts to the Japanese and the traitors.
In this area occupied by the Japanese and puppet troops, the maintenance associations of surrounding villages and towns sent some cadres there to wish them happy New Year and give them some gifts.
What should I give? Just give me this red and black account.
Let me explain clearly to these traitors how many good things they have done and how many bad things they have done. Our independent group is keeping accounts for them, so that they can take care of themselves."
"Yes!"
The cadres responded in unison, holding back their laughter and mourning two seconds of silence for these traitors from the bottom of their hearts.
