I fought guerrilla warfare in the Yimeng Mountains during the Anti-Japanese War

Chen Feng is very optimistic about this big man. He is similar to the current special operations battalion commander Guo Dapeng. He was also a machine gun stand at that time. He is full of confidence and has a clear vision. With proper training, he will definitely be an excellent soldier and even a very good commander.

In the tent at the foot of the mountain, the meal had not yet arrived, and Chen Feng was chatting with the father and son of Big Gourd. For the first time, the father of Big Gourd felt the attention of an important person, and his heart gradually calmed down. He answered all of Chen Feng's questions and even expressed his own feelings.

"Uncle Shen, I have a basic understanding of your family's situation. To be honest, I can make your family live a good life with just one word, but you still have to fight for a good life yourself. Don't you think this is reasonable?"

"Yes, yes, how can we ask you for help? You are all the same as us. No matter how rich and powerful your guerrillas are, you will eventually lose it all."

"Oh, so that's it! Big Gourd is a good seedling. I'm giving your family two chances now. Just listen to me first."

The father and son's eyes lit up. At least there would be no problem for Dahulu to join the army.

"At the first opportunity, Zhiqiang will join the Independent Regiment. Uncle Shen will take back a resettlement allowance of ten dollars. In the future, he will receive a military salary of three dollars per month, as well as benefits during festivals. But let me make it clear first, the team will have to move to a faraway place in the future. It is up to Zhiqiang to decide whether to join or not. We will not force him."

The father and son nodded seriously. The first condition was very generous, but the second condition had not been mentioned yet, so they couldn't agree immediately.

"The second chance. Our guerrillas will go to a very far place next. Now we have arrived there, part of the army has conquered the territory, and some families have immigrated there. If you choose to immigrate, we will provide you with a house and you can farm the land as you like. The resettlement fee is one hundred dollars. If there are laborers in your family, they can work, and the compensation will not be less than ten dollars a month."

Hulu Dad was completely confused. What kind of opportunity is this? This is a pie in the sky! Big Hulu asked:

"Captain Leng Qiang, my aunt's neighbor was a martyr of your guerrillas. His whole family moved away last month. I heard that he is living a godly life, is that true?"

"Yes, it is there, but it is not a god-like life where you can have everything you want without having to stretch out your hand. You have to work hard, and of course the rewards are not comparable to what you get here."

Big Gourd and Old Man looked at each other, and both saw the eagerness in each other's eyes.

"Captain Leng Qiang, this old man doesn't know the rules, so I just want to ask, we won't starve if we go there, right?"

"I can guarantee this. As long as you have hands and feet, you will not go hungry and you will have plenty of meat and fish on a regular basis."

Big Gourd looked at his father excitedly.

"Dad! We~".

All the wrinkles on Huludie's face were smoothed out. If someone else had said this, he would have just laughed it off as a liar. But this was said by Captain Lengqiang, a man of his word.

"Go, let's sign up, but Hulu's grandparents are old, can they go with them?"

"As long as there is nothing wrong with your health and you can sit on the boat for two or three days, there will be no problem. Over there, an old man can support himself by taking care of half an acre of vegetable fields."

"Captain, let's go back and prepare now, sell the small fields and houses, and go out and try our luck."

"Don't worry, the food is ready. Eat before leaving. Is three days enough for you? Report here after three days and wait for the opportunity to go to the beach and board the ship. But you can't tell any outsiders. Can you do it?"

"Yes, yes, yes, Captain Lengqiang, don't worry! We won't tell anyone except our family members, and even among our family members we will close the door and whisper it."

Shen Zhong was observing everything carefully from the side, and when he saw that the other side agreed to immigrate, he felt inexplicably happy.

"My name is Chen Zhong, and I'm going there too this time."

Da Hulu quickly stretched out his hand and shook hands with Chen Zhong. He felt that he was about the same age as himself, and looked very impressive with a rifle on his back.

People of the same age always have some common topics. Chen Feng and Lao Shen talked about life, while Shen Zhong and Da Hulu talked about interesting stories of their peers.

The food and wine were served, and the father and son of the Shen family had trembling throats as they looked at the delicious food on the table.

"Would you like to drink?"

Shen Kaishan wanted to drink, but he felt embarrassed because he hadn't had a drink in several years and he couldn't even get enough to eat, so how could he have the spare money to buy wine?

Chen Feng poured them both glasses, raised his glass and said:

"Welcome to join us, we will be a family from now on."

Shen Kaishan picked up the wine bowl with trembling hands, wanting to say something but unable to find the words. Seeing Chen Feng take a sip, he also imitated him and took a sip. It was spicy and fragrant!

"Don't be shy, eat it while it's hot."

After drinking a bowl of wine, the father and son slowly relaxed and ate the entire pork elbow.

Da Hulu felt like his whole body was trembling, it was so delicious. He didn't ask for anything else. If he could eat the big pork elbow once a month, he would be willing to fight the Japanese with his bare chest.

Chen Feng winked at Lu Feihu, and Lu Feihu went out to make some arrangements.

After the meal, both father and son felt a little dizzy. It was getting late, and just as they were about to say goodbye, Lu Feihu came in carrying a basket.

"Uncle Shen, here is one hundred dollars as your settlement fee. Take it first. Carry this basket back with some food prepared for the elders and children."

"How can this be appropriate? I can't charge you big bucks when I haven't moved yet."

Chen Feng smiled and said:

"Take it! Bring some vegetable seeds from here. The climate over there is very good, and you can grow crops and vegetables all year round."

Shen Kaishan took the two dollars with trembling hands and put them carefully in his arms. He then took the basket of food and handed it to his son, then knelt down in front of Chen Feng with a thud.

"Captain Leng Qiang, I will never forget your great kindness."

Lu Feihu was quick to act and helped Shen Kaishan up.

"Uncle, don't do this, we don't like this."

Seeing them leave, a group of people sighed. The people had such a hard life! This was a place without the devils. Just imagine the people in the enemy-occupied areas. They must have lived in such a miserable state.

As soon as the father and son left the Mengshan area, Da Hulu couldn't help but open the bag in the basket. He and his father were full, but the family had never tasted this delicacy. What was in it? It was very heavy.

The father and son looked towards the basket, and saw a large pork elbow that they had just eaten, a roast chicken that they had also eaten, a bundle of sausages and several tin boxes of canned food.

"father".

"Cover it, cover it quickly, Gourd, and don't show off when you go back. Captain Cold Gun requires it to be kept confidential. You can't say a word, do you understand?"

"Dad, I understand. Can't I tell my younger brothers and sisters?"

"You can't tell her. Kids are so talkative. We won't wait three days. Tomorrow I will inquire about the sale of land and houses. You go to Zhuqian Township to buy some vegetable seeds. Buy some of each. If the house and land are sold smoothly, we will leave the day after tomorrow morning. The longer the night, the more trouble you may have. Do you understand?"

The big gourd nodded, and his heart felt as sweet as if he had eaten honey.
