More than fifty miles southeast of Fengtian, there is a small village called Sandaotun.
As mentioned before, when Xu Rui decided to stick to Fengtian City, in order to protect the people around Fengtian from being poisoned by the little devils, he immediately evacuated all the surrounding people into the city. However, only those who evacuated into the city were
The people within a radius of fifty miles exceed the people fifty miles away, but there is no more energy to take care of them.
Moreover, people in villages more than fifty miles away from Fengtian may not be willing to move into the city. Firstly, because Fengtian is relatively far away, the possibility of suffering military disasters is relatively small. Secondly, it is also because these peripheral villages are not as close as Chahar.
The relationship between independent groups is not that close.
Due to the scarcity of political cadres, after occupying Fengtian, the Chahar Independent Regiment only had time to clean up villages within a radius of fifty miles, drive away all the Japanese expatriates in these villages, and unconditionally remove all the good land occupied by the Japanese expatriates.
was returned to the original owner.
Because of this, the people in the villages within a radius of fifty miles have a good impression of the Chahar Independent Group, and naturally they strongly support the work of the Chahar Independent Group. Therefore, when the Chahar Independent Group suggested that everyone move into Fengtian City,
The common people within a radius of fifty miles moved into the city with their children and their children in tow.
However, in villages fifty miles away, because there has not been time to carry out the cleanup work, the Japanese expatriates have not been expelled, and the good land that originally belonged to the local people has not been taken back, the local people have no sense of identification with the Chahar Independent Group and the Communist Party.
It's not that intense.
Lao Zhangtou is famous for his good crops in Sandaotun.
The sky was just getting brighter, and Lao Zhangtou walked out of the courtyard carrying a pair of empty buckets, preparing to water the tobacco seedlings planted on the newly reclaimed dry land at the foot of the East Mountain. The tobacco seedlings were very delicate and would not be watered.
Too much water will not work, and too little water will not work, so Lao Zhangtou will water some water early in the morning every day.
After walking out of the courtyard, Lao Zhang subconsciously glanced at the courtyard at the east end of the village.
That compound originally belonged to the Niu family, a large family in the village. After the September 18th Incident, the Japanese occupied the entire three northeastern provinces. Within a few months, more than a dozen Japanese families were protected by a group of Japanese armed expatriates.
Next, we arrived at Sandaotun. After arriving, the Japanese moved directly into the Niu Family Courtyard.
After a while, the Niu family was suppressed for infiltrating the Anti-Japanese Alliance. All the men were shot, and the women were sent to no one knows where. Then the huge Niu family compound became the property of the Japanese.
The house, more than a dozen families of Japanese expatriates and the armed expatriates who were responsible for protecting it have lived there for a long time.
The Niu family's industry has become the industry of Japanese expatriates.
Lao Zhangtou and the others originally thought that after the Japanese expatriates occupied the Niu family's property, they would stop. They never thought that this was just the beginning. Immediately afterwards, the dozen or so families of Japanese expatriates began to "enclose the land."
As long as they like the land in the village, it will immediately become their land with a finger.
Of course the people in the villages refused, and of course they would resist.
But the result of resistance was a severe beating from Japanese armed expatriates!
Facing the ferocious armed colonization group, the villagers of Sandaotun soon died down, because the villagers of Sidaotun next door killed a Japanese expatriate. As a result, a large group of Japanese soldiers were recruited, and the entire village was destroyed by a hundred people.
They all were killed. Faced with the bloody butcher knife raised by the Japanese, the villagers of Sandaotun could only grit their teeth and endure.
I have endured it, but the resentment in the hearts of the Sandaotun villagers has only grown day by day.
So when he turned to look at the Niu family compound, Lao Zhangtou's eyes were cold.
"Salad." I didn't know what I stepped on under my feet, but it shocked Old Zhangtou. He looked down anxiously and found a green piece of paper under his feet. Old Zhangtou quickly put down the bucket and reached out to pick up the green paper.
After picking up the film and taking a closer look, Lao Zhangtou's facial muscles immediately began to twitch violently.
Why? Because there is a photo printed on this green piece of paper. The photo is of a smiling Japs. This is nothing. What makes Lao Zhangtou feel uncomfortable or strongly dissatisfied is the bayonet of this Japs soldier.
He was actually carrying a baby who was still in his infancy. Damn it, these little devils deserve to be killed a thousand times!
Cursing in his heart, Lao Zhangtou threw away the piece of paper, bent down and picked up the bucket again. Although his heart was full of anger, his little arms could not hold his thighs. Facing the little devil's bayonet, the only thing they could do now was to endure
, otherwise, we can only be like the folks in Sidaotun, who were killed by the Japanese without leaving any grass behind.
But after walking a few steps, Lao Zhangtou found another piece of red paper. There was still a photo on the paper, but it showed several Japanese soldiers standing next to a naked woman laughing.
What made Lao Zhangtou angry was that after a few Japanese soldiers had finished destroying her, they cut open the entire abdomen of this poor woman, causing the intestines to flow all over the floor.
Seeing this, the blood vessels on Lao Zhangtou's forehead, face and neck bulged, and his eyes turned red.
Then, Lao Zhangtou immediately took out his carrying pole and strode forward to the Niu Family Courtyard. However, after walking a few steps, Lao Zhangtou's pace slowed down, and finally he stopped completely, with a look of struggle on his face.
After struggling for a moment, Lao Zhangtou let out a long sigh and walked back to pick up the bucket with a pole.
It’s not that Lao Zhangtou lacks the courage to fight against the kid, it’s just that he has an old mother who is over eighty years old, and a young child who is waiting to be fed. If he is beaten to death, not only will the old mother not be able to provide for him until the end of his life, but the two-year-old
Young children have no one to support them, and in such troubled times, they will most likely starve to death.
Sighing, Lao Zhangtou bent down and picked up the bucket again.
However, just when he bent down to pick up the bucket, a gunshot suddenly came from the Niu family compound behind him, followed by two more bangs, which were gunshots. Old Zhangtou heard it very clearly. Could it be that
Someone couldn't help but stand up and resist first? Thinking of this, Lao Zhangtou immediately took out his pole and rushed towards the Niu family compound.
Lao Zhangtou carried a pole and strode towards the Niu family compound. On the way, he met several young men from the village. Most of these young men were carrying hatchets, and one even had a firecracker. Apparently, he had the same weapons as Lao Zhangtou.
Their thoughts are that if someone really takes the lead in resisting, they will help someone out no matter what.
In the blink of an eye, Lao Zhangtou rushed to the door of the Niu family compound, and there were more than twenty young people gathered behind him. This was already a very high ratio for a small village with only more than a hundred people.
, because nearly half of the young adults in the entire village have already arrived.
Lao Zhangtou was the first to rush to the gate of Niu's compound. He found two Japanese armed foreigners lying at the gate. Both of them had blood holes in their chests. The blood was gurgling out. When he saw one of the Japanese foreigners was still
While struggling slightly, Lao Zhangtou couldn't help but pick up the pole and hit him on the head.
In just a few blows, the devil's head was smashed.
At this time, a figure rushed out of the yard holding a rifle.
Lao Zhangtou yelled, suddenly raised the pole and was about to smash it over.
But at this moment, the figure suddenly shouted: "Old Uncle Zhang?"
Lao Zhangtou took a closer look, and then he shouted in surprise: "Little Hammer, it's you?!"
"It's me, Old Uncle Zhang, it's me!" That little hammer was naturally the officers and soldiers of the 10th Battalion who came back overnight, and he said hello to the more than 20 young men behind Old Zhang.
Old Zhangtou said in surprise: "Little Hammer, aren't you serving as a soldier in Fengtian?"
The news in Sandaotun is really tight. They have no idea about such a big thing happening outside.
"Uncle Zhang, are you talking about the Puppet Manchukuo Army? I stopped working long ago!" Little Hammer said loudly, "I am now working in the Eighth Route Army, which is a team that specializes in helping the poor!" After a pause, Little Hammer said again,
"I came back to the village this time to help the villagers fight the Japanese. Uncle Zhang, please gather everyone together and move quickly. The Japanese will come and arrest people if they speak."
"Wait a minute." Lao Zhangtou waved his hand and said, "Little Hammer, you haven't said what's going on yet?"
Little Hammer said in a deep voice: "Uncle Zhang, have you seen the leaflets distributed by our aviation team?"
"You see, these little devils are just beasts, no, not even worse than beasts!" Lao Zhang nodded heavily, and the more than twenty young men behind him also nodded, and they also picked up the flyers.
Xiao Xiaotou then told the story from the beginning about the Japs taking people as hostages to attack the city. Of course, Xiao Xiaotou emphasized the fact that the Chahar Independent Regiment would rather die themselves than shoot at the people. He also sent ten battalions of them to
In order to rescue the hostages, I also talked about how I faced the machine gun fire of the Japs with my bayonet and risked my life.
After finishing speaking, Little Hammer said to one of the young men: "Brother Daniu, your two cattle died in that battle to rescue the hostages held in Santaitun."
The young man named Daniu burst out crying: "Two Niu, two Niu~"
"There's no drama, why are you crying!" Lao Zhang turned his pole upside down and pecked the young man, and then said to Little Hammer, "Little Hammer, you have been a soldier in the army, just lead the others to do it, we all listen.
your."
The other twenty or so young men also nodded, expressing their willingness to listen to Little Hammer.
Little Hammer was not polite, nodded and said: "Well, the first thing now is to move the old, young, women and children to a safe place and hide them, and then we can let go and fight with the Japanese! I remember, the east end of the village
There is a big cave, we will take the old, young, women and children to the cave to hide."
At that moment, the entire three villages took action.
In fact, many people in the village did not want to get involved because they were timid, but when they learned that more than a dozen families of Japanese expatriates in the Niu family compound had been beaten to death, they had no choice but to get involved.
Because the Japanese would definitely be resurrected if they found out that the overseas Chinese had been beaten to death, they had no choice.
