"Benefactor, thank you for saving me. You are welcome to my home. My name is Zhaoyuan, and I am the son of the leader of the Hezhe clan. We Hezhe people will definitely welcome you with the grandest etiquette."
Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Xu Rui really wanted to find a place to stay, so he nodded and walked forward along the shore, while Zhao Principle and a few soldiers tied the big fish to the boat and rowed
Take the boat towards the lower reaches of the river.
After walking for a few miles, they saw a small fishing village on the shore in the distance. Zhaoyuan returned to the fishing village first, but Xu Rui was afraid that his large group of troops would scare the fishermen in the fishing village, so he asked the troops to stop outside the village.
After a while, hundreds of Hezhe people in strange costumes were seen beating gongs and drums and opening the village gate. Zhaoyuan followed an old man and walked towards Xu Rui.
These villagers came to Xu Rui. The old man saluted Xu Rui and said: "Benefactor, I am the patriarch of the Bacha Hezhe people. Thank you for saving my son. On behalf of the Hezhe people, I welcome you. Please follow me in."
Village, we have prepared fine wine and fish."
Xu Rui smiled and said, "Then we won't be polite."
At that moment, Xu Rui led Lang Ya and the guard group into the fishing village. Accompanied by Zhao Yuan and the old man, everyone came to the square in the center of the village. They saw that many small tables had been placed in the square, and the tables were filled with old things.
A variety of exquisite fish-based food and wine.
At this time, dozens of strong young men pushed the four or five meter long fish up.
Seeing the big fish being dragged in, the Hezhe people screamed and jumped for joy. The patriarch walked to the center of the field holding a sacred drum, raised his hands to pray to God, and then beat the sacred drum on his waist. The next moment, everyone
All the people in Hezhe were excited and cheered.
The old man completed his sacrificial ceremony in the unique language of the Hezhe people. Many Hezhe people danced cheerfully. The old man returned to Xu Rui again, and he was together with Xu Rui, Leng Tiefeng, Di Gua and Andakov.
Sit down at the small table.
The old man said: "Benefactor, thank you for saving my son. You were able to kill the river god. Could it be that you are a heavenly soldier and a heavenly general?"
Others don't understand what's going on, but Xu Rui knows that the so-called river god in Hezhe's mouth is actually a big fish called anchovy. This fish is the largest freshwater fish and can grow to four in adult size.
It is five meters long, and the meat on its body is extremely delicious. The most valuable thing about this fish is the roe in its body. One gram of catfish roe is more valuable than the same amount of gold.
However, Xu Rui didn't point it out. Since he had become a heavenly soldier and general in the eyes of the Hezhe people, it was up to them to figure it out.
Under the warm hospitality of the Hezhe people, Xu Rui and others had a great meal. The soldiers enjoyed the Hezhe people's killed fish, talaha and other delicacies. The fish meat was very delicious.
Through conversation, Xu Rui learned that it turned out that these Hezhe people were actually wearing clothes made of fish skin. They had lived on both sides of the Songhua River for generations and made a living by fishing. They still maintained their original style and style.
They have lived for thousands of years, but since the arrival of the Japanese, everything has become different. The Japanese have to collect a large amount of fish products from the Hezhe people as taxes every year. As a result, the lives of these Hezhe people have become worse and worse.
It is becoming more and more difficult, far less than the situation in previous years.
After hearing what the old man said, Xu Rui said: "These days, only when you have a gun in your hand can you have the right to speak, otherwise you will be slaughtered by others."
The old man said: "Yes, but we Hezhe people are very poor and cannot afford guns to resist the atrocities of the Japanese, so we can only grit our teeth and endure it."
Xu Rui said: "I will give you a gun so that you can use it to protect yourself."
After hearing Xu Rui's words, the old man was overjoyed. At this time, Zhao Yuan had already carefully served the prepared catfish roe to the dinner table. The old Cong immediately motioned for Xu Rui to taste it first.
Xu Rui looked at the fish roe, which was more valuable than gold, and took a small bite. His mouth was filled with the smell of fish. It was a rare delicacy in the world.
After staying one night at Jiejinkou, Xu Rui set off again with Lang Ya and the guard group early the next morning. Before leaving, Xu Rui gave the captured more than 100 Type 38 rifles and grenades to the Hezhe people.
, Hezhe took over these guns very happily.
At this time, Zhaoyuan and dozens of Hezhe young men approached Xu Rui and asked to join the army. The old man said to Xu Rui: "Brother Xu Rui, accept my son. They are all good players in the water and are members of the Hezhe tribe."
The best sons and daughters will definitely help you."
Xu Rui thanked the old man immediately and left Jiejinkou under the watch of Hezheren.
What Xu Rui didn't expect was that in the following years, the Hezhe people, armed with weapons, fought tirelessly against the Japanese and dealt a major blow to the Japanese. The Hezhe people's anti-Japanese struggle was destined to go down in history...
One day later, Xu Rui led his troops to finally arrive outside Tongjiang City. After reconnaissance of the situation in Tongjiang City, Xu Rui learned that most of the Japanese garrison brigades were not in Tongjiang City.
Digua asked: "Where did these Japanese soldiers go when they weren't guarding Tongjiang City?"
The scout said: "Most of them were sent by the old devil Okazaki Shine to various places in Tongjiang to collect grain."
"Collect food?"
"Okazaki Shine sends Japanese soldiers to collect grain every year. The food collected is transported to Fujin by Okazaki Shine, an old Japanese soldier, and then transported to the pass via railway. Okazaki Shine makes a huge fortune every year from this.
This old devil is extremely rich now," the scout said.
Xu Rui frowned. Since the Japanese occupied Northeast China, they have shipped a large amount of materials back to Japan every year for blood transfusions. Before September 18th, Japan's economy was already very poor, and the government spent most of its income on the military.
On the other hand, the life of ordinary people is very hard, and many people do not even have enough to eat. However, after September 18, due to the continuous blood transfusions from the Northeast region to Japan, Japan's economy continues to improve, and the lives of ordinary people have also become much better. Therefore,
Many Japanese have become immediate beneficiaries. They firmly support the government's aggressive actions, which has also resulted in unprecedented domestic support for the aggression against China.
When Xu Rui thought that a large amount of supplies were plundered from China by the Japanese every year, he became extremely angry. He immediately ordered an attack on Tongjiang to eliminate the Japanese in Tongjiang.
At this time, the guard regiment and Langya had already switched to war horses, and with the sound of thousands of hooves, they were heading towards Tongjiang City with thunderous momentum.
At this time, the gates of Tongjiang City were open. It had been ten years since September 18th. In these ten years, no Chinese army had ever threatened Tongjiang City. Therefore, the Japanese did not expect that an army would suddenly attack Tongjiang City.
Jiangcheng was completely unprepared.
At the gate of Tongjiang City, because it was the harvest season, there were very few people entering the city. The gate was empty. A few Japanese soldiers and puppet soldiers stood crookedly, looking distracted, and kept beating.
Yawning.
A few Japanese soldiers were okay and did not move around randomly, but the puppet soldiers were in groups of twos and threes and kept chatting.
A tall and thin man said: "Fat Liu, I heard that you went to the brothel to play again last night?"
Fatty Liu chuckled and said, "I went there, but I still found them all over the bed, and my waist almost broke."
The tall and lanky man licked his lips and said with envy on his face: "Your boy actually got into the 'Flower'. She is a famous bitch in Tongjiang City. Her skills in bed are absolutely top-notch."
"I've seen it before. The job is good, but it's no match for me." Fatty Liu said proudly.
"I'll go and taste it someday," the tall and thin man said.
"I say Yang Wei, listen to your name, are you okay?" Fatty Liu curled his lips.
Yang Wei said: "In short, he is much stronger than you."
"Just brag." Fatty Liu said unconvinced.
"Stop talking, look, what is that?" a puppet soldier next to him shouted.
Fatty Liu and Yang Wei immediately looked into the distance and saw a black line appearing on the horizon in the distance. This black line moved little by little and continued to expand. Then, the ground began to tremble, like an earthquake, accompanied by
There was a buzzing sound.
Fatty Liu and Yang Wei stopped chatting. They had never seen anything like this before. They just lay at the city gate and looked outside. They saw that the black lines in the distance were getting thicker and bigger, and gradually turned into many black lines.
Dots and black dots continued to enlarge, and gradually it became clear that they were countless war horses galloping forward.
"Oh my god, where did so many war horses come from?" Fatty Liu exclaimed.
"Look, there's someone coming soon!"
Fatty Liu looked forward carefully, and sure enough, he saw a knight sitting on each war horse. These knights were showing off their power and running towards the city gate.
Fatty Liu was so frightened that he sat down on the ground. He felt a large area wet down there, and a pool of transparent liquid flowed on the ground. He was so frightened that he peed his pants.
The war horses and knights in the distance are getting closer and closer, and their outlines can be clearly seen. The killing sounds are loud, the aura is flowing through the rainbow, and the faces are filled with murderous intent.
"Hurry! Close the city gate quickly!" A voice shouted, but unfortunately, it was already too late. The war horses rushed into Tongjiang City like a rolling torrent with thunderous force...
In the Tongjiang City garrison headquarters, Okazaki Shinjie was so shocked that he dropped the white marble abacus in his hand to the ground when he learned that an army was entering Tongjiang City.
"Major, retreat quickly, otherwise it will be too late." said the soldier who came to report the news.
"Immediately ask Captain Bijima to lead his men to block the anti-Japanese armed forces, and tell him that he must hold on for an hour!"
"Hai!" the soldier responded, thinking that the major was really brave. Under such circumstances, he could still command Ruoding and persist in fighting. How did he know that the reason why Okazaki Shine allowed the troops to resist was not heroic and useless?
, purely because resistance can give him the opportunity to transfer his property. Okazaki Shine is a person who cherishes money as much as his life. He does not want his hard-earned property to be lost like this.
