Zhou Wen nodded approvingly to Delengtai and said: "Go and pick up the Japs' guns and bullets. Don't be dogs for the Japs anymore, and don't harm the people. Then you can leave."
Delengtai looked at Zhou Wen blankly, but he didn't react for a while.
He watched Zhou Wen turn his horse and walk away, and then began to assemble the national army. He didn't even look at the guns scattered on the ground in Little Japan. Only a few people took off the shoulder and collar badges of the officers, and collected all the command knives.
take away.
Finally, Zhou Wen took out his camera and took pictures of the battlefield and the corpses of the Japanese. After every battle, as long as conditions allowed, Zhou Wen took pictures of the battlefield. Some of the pictures were sent to Nanjing and the media as materials to promote the Anti-Japanese War.
, and more of it should be left as a historical proof of the mercenary group’s resistance to war.
These certificates are not necessarily used to express merit and publicity, but more to serve as a sentiment and souvenir for the brothers to remember the past after victory in the future.
After taking the photo, he turned to the cavalry of the puppet Manchukuo army and said loudly: "You have now given up your merits, and I am not interested in giving you any more reasons. I just want to surrender next time, little devil."
, just think about today’s battlefield, and then think about the corpses of these little devils today.”
After finishing speaking, he no longer delayed, but led the brothers of the infantry company on horseback in the direction they came from, and never looked back once.
Only then did Delengtai realize that the colonel of the National Army had indeed kept his word, and he and his group had finally regained their freedom.
At that moment, he immediately jumped off the horse, picked up a few rifles scattered by the Japanese on the ground, hung them on the horse, collected some bullets, and then said to Guan Xiaoxi, who was picking up the guns with him: "I... am going to surrender to the country.
Jun, are you going... or not?"
Guan Xiaoxi was stunned for a moment and said anxiously: "Squad leader, aren't you going back?"
Guan Xiaoxi meant returning to the 7th Brigade. In his opinion, he would definitely not dare to go back to his hometown in the Northeast, and there was no way to go back. If he didn't go back to the 7th Brigade, would he be a lonely ghost?
Delengtai said no more.
Go back? Go back and follow Brigadier Cui as a dog to the little Japanese? I have killed so many little Japanese today, how can I go back?
Besides, it’s hard to say that after I go back, I will face this extremely powerful national army again soon. If I meet the colonel of the national army who is obviously more powerful than me, I might die. Not to mention that someone saved my life.
He doesn't regard himself as a human being. This kind of officer must be a good officer.
De Lengtai made up his mind, so he mounted his horse and asked Guan Xiaoxi again: "Are you going?"
He was not a good talker, and he didn't know how to do any ideological work. He just asked if you were going, and if you didn't go, they would go their separate ways.
Guan Xiaoxi panicked all of a sudden. He was usually dull and timid, so how could he have any ideas now? He could only nod his head and said: "I will follow the squad leader, and I will go wherever you go."
Delengtai nodded and said, "Follow me."
After saying that, he turned the horse's head and rode in the direction Zhou Wen and the others left.
"Wait a minute!" came a voice from behind. Delengtai looked back, but it was an officer calling him.
"No one is allowed to leave. Brigadier Cui treats us badly. We all have to go back. No one is allowed to leave."
Delengtai looked at him expressionlessly and said coldly: "Go back? Are you... not afraid of... Little Japan... settling accounts?"
The officer's expression changed and he was speechless for a moment.
Delengtai stopped talking, clamped his legs together, and the horse continued to move forward.
"Stop, if you don't stop I'm going to shoot you."
"That's right, brother, even if we don't go back to find Brigadier Cui, we can still find a place to stay first and then make long-term plans." Another officer advised.
De Lentai ignored them, and now he realized that the sense of majesty these officers had originally established in his heart, as well as his innate sense of awe for those in authority, seemed to have completely disappeared.
In the past, as long as it was an order from an officer, no matter how unfair or absurd it was, he would subconsciously obey it and would not dare to disobey it.
For example, he led them to surrender to Japan without firing a single shot. For example, this time he surrendered to the national army without firing a single shot. He just followed numbly, numbly without any ideas of his own, and numbly just trying to survive.
But now it's suddenly different.
After experiencing this battle, I experienced fighting side by side with a colonel of the national army, and I experienced that others did not treat you as cannon fodder, but treated you as a comrade-in-arms, and they would rescue you at critical moments.
Moreover, a colonel officer with a much higher status than him actually praised his bravery and ability, looked at him with admiration, and even regarded him as a companion and comrade, and wanted to compare with him.
The ability is greater.
He didn't know that this was respect between people, and he didn't know that it was a kind of appreciation of fellow human beings.
He only knew that there seemed to be a tight shackle on his chest that suddenly opened a gap, then slowly expanded, and he saw the sky outside.
Looking back at these officers, their original majesty and overwhelming momentum suddenly disappeared, leaving only contempt and disgust.
"Coward!"
Delengtai said in a voice that only he could hear, with disdain written all over his face.
The officer holding the gun had a ferocious look on his face. He was completely stunned by De Lentai.
"I was bullied by the little Japanese, bullied by the national army, and now I am ignored by a little soldier. Are you really not afraid of death?"
Thinking of this, he pulled the bolt of the gun with a click, then raised the gun and took aim.
Delengtai ignored it at all and continued to ride forward, but his body tensed up, thinking that as long as the dog officer dared to shoot, he would turn around and rush over to chop him to death even if he risked his life.
Just when the officer was about to pull the trigger, a hand grabbed him. It was the officer who had persuaded him before.
He saw the officer whispering in his ear: "Don't shoot, look behind you."
The officer holding the gun quickly turned his head to look. In an instant, it was as if a basin of ice water had been poured from head to toe, and his whole body was as cold as ice.
I don't know when, but there were nearly a hundred cavalry officers and soldiers standing quietly in the back. No one spoke, they just looked at this side with an indifferent look.
However, they all had weapons in their hands, and the most terrifying thing was that they actually had more than a dozen machine guns.
The muzzles of those dark holes seemed to be facing this way.
It turned out that these were Mo Dahai's machine gun company that had set out early to circle back.
Zhou Wen's original intention was to let the machine gun circle behind the Japs and launch an attack, but he did not expect the cavalry's attack to be surprisingly smooth. In addition, after the cavalry rushed into the Japs' team, it was difficult to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy. Mo Dahai did not dare to order the machine guns to fire.
Therefore, the machine gun company that went behind was basically useless. After the battle, they did not come over to join Zhou Wen immediately, but stayed behind to monitor the movements of these puppet cavalry. This chapter has been completed!
