Traveling through 1937, I came to fight against the Kwantung Army

In the cold winter, the snow is falling heavily.

Ferry Town,

On the road leading to Mulan County,

Several trucks appeared.

The truck in the front.

Cheng Wei was driving the car and smiled at an Eighth Route Army officer beside him.

"Old leader, if Yin Xinjun knew you were coming, he would probably be so happy that he would go crazy!"

The reason why he is still called an Eighth Route Army officer is because he is still wearing the uniform of the Eighth Route Army, and the armband on his arm has the word "Eighth Route Army" on it!

"Haha, time flies. It's been almost ten years since we last met. You all can now stand on your own feet!!"

This Eighth Route Army officer has an upright figure and a sharp gaze, as if he can penetrate all the fog and darkness. He is Fang Hao! The political commissar of the New 1st Brigade of the Eighth Route Army's Yan'an garrison!

"Old leader, this guy has become rich now, a local tyrant. Look at this truck, it was given by this guy, and he gave 10 of them at once! How generous! In this horrible weather, without a truck, we can't move an inch!"

Fang Hao looked ahead and pointed at a bulldozer and said,

"Including this thing?"

Cheng Wei said,

"Yes, this bulldozer is very convenient for shoveling snow. Old Yin has a lot of good stuff in his hands!"

The convoy soon arrived at the bridgehead.

The convoy stopped and the bulldozers turned around and left, continuing to clear the snow in the opposite direction!

Fang Hao and the others looked through the car window,

But I saw dozens of men appear on the bridge.

They were all wearing worn and thin clothes, and their bodies were shivering slightly in the cold wind. Everyone's face was filled with fatigue and helplessness, but they had to obey orders.

They held clearing tools and tried hard to clear the snow, but every swing seemed so clumsy.

The snowflakes flew up under the stirring of the brooms, blinding their eyes, but they could not stop what they were doing.

Several soldiers armed with live ammunition stood aside, pointing and watching. They were dressed thickly and warmly, and they were eating snacks!

After a while, a soldier walked up behind a man holding a shovel and suddenly kicked him to the ground. Then he kicked him again. The man rolled on the ground in pain, but the soldier still refused to give in and kept shouting something!

Cheng Wei said in a somewhat strange tone,

"Don't Old Yin and his men have a bulldozer? Why do they need so many people?"

Fang Hao looked very unhappy and shouted, "Stop the car!"

He opened the car door and jumped out.

When Cheng Wei saw it, he hurriedly followed!

Fang Hao walked over and shouted,

"What part are you in?"

A soldier came over after taking a look. He recognized the flag of the Northeastern Democratic Alliance Army hanging on the truck.

"What's going on? We are from the First Company of the Third Battalion of the Mulan Security Command!"

"Why do you treat civilians like this? Don't you know the close relationship between the military and the people?" Fang Hao shouted angrily!

The soldier raised his head and said,

"They are not ordinary people, they are bandits who were captured by us!"

Fang Hao was stunned, and his tone softened.

"Bandits? You can't treat prisoners like this!"

Cheng Wei followed behind and tugged at Fang Hao's clothes, whispering,

"This bunch of bandits are guilty of all kinds of evil. They treat the common people worse than the Japanese!"

Sure enough, several soldiers looked at Fang Hao strangely, and one of them said,

"It's good enough that they weren't shot. They were given a chance for labor reform, but they still dared to be lazy!"

Cheng Wei took over the conversation.

"Please make way, this is Commander Yin's old leader!"

The two returned to the car.

Cheng Wei smiled and said,

"Old Yin also started out as a bandit. Many of the soldiers under him are of complex composition and wild ways. They are difficult to control!"

Fang Hao said disapprovingly,

"That's fine. As long as we can fight, everything has two sides!"

After crossing the bridge, we saw a half-track armored vehicle parked at the bridgehead. There was an MG42 machine gun mounted on the vehicle, and three soldiers were chatting in the vehicle.

Cheng Wei pointed at the armored vehicle.

"Old leader, look at this German equipment. This guy has quite a few good stuff!"

Fang Hao took a look and exclaimed,

"This car is so beautiful. The soldiers on the front line rely on their own two legs. When they come here, it feels like a completely different world!"

Cheng Wei smiled.

"Our division now has three regiments. My regiment is the most familiar with the people and has the most equipment. The other two regiments have also formed an artillery battalion with six field guns each!"

In less than an hour, the convoy arrived at the Mulan County Security Command.

Yin Xinjun was discussing the bandit suppression with Tang Yantian and Ding Shan in the office. The weather was horrible, it was the coldest time of the year, with the lowest temperature at night reaching minus 30 degrees Celsius. Fighting was a very troublesome thing.

Yin Xinjun himself was also very conflicted. He was not very willing to suppress the bandits, but in his heart he felt very sympathetic towards the people in the surrounding areas.

He also considered a single-handed surprise attack, but this bandit was different from the Japs, and it was difficult to identify friend or foe. It was not like the Japs, who could just speak Japanese and be dealt with by firing cannons!

"Did Cheng Wei and the others call back?" Yin Xinjun asked.

"Not yet!" Ding Shan replied.

To suppress the bandits, we must not only inflict heavy damage on the enemy, but the key is to send troops to defend the place. Therefore, this matter cannot be done without the Northeast Democratic Alliance Army. Now almost everything requires support from the organization!

Just when he was hesitant, he suddenly heard a voice. A huge surprise appeared on Yin Xinjun's face. He stood up suddenly.

"Notify everyone to clean up!"

"Cleaning?" Ding Shan and Tang Yantian were puzzled.

"Well, we are the headquarters after all, we have to have a good image!"

After the two of them went out, Yin Xinjun took a rag and carefully wiped the dust off the table!

After a while,

I heard a loud voice coming from the door.

"Old Yin, look, who's here?"

Yin Xinjun raised his head hastily, and as a figure appeared, he shouted in surprise.

"Old squad leader! You're finally here!"

Holding the old squad leader's hand, Yin Xinjun's eyes were filled with tears.

Fang Hao laughed and said,

"It's been almost ten years, and you've already grown some white hair!"

"Alas, war makes people grow old!"

There was another person standing behind Fang Hao. Yin Xinjun thought the person looked familiar, but he couldn't remember who he was.

"Commander Yin, please forget about me. I am Su Fei!"

"Oh, oh...I remember!"

Yin Xinjun happily shook hands with Su Fei, the deputy county magistrate of Yan'an County, who had worked with Yin Xinjun to build the Yan'an New District!

Fang Hao introduced,

"Now he is the county party secretary, Secretary Su!"

"Please sit down, please sit down!"

Yin Xinjun took out a box of tea from the cabinet and quickly made a few cups of tea for everyone.

"I have seen the letter the chief sent me. The development of Mulan County cannot be separated from the support of the organization. I am looking forward to your coming!"

The room was filled with the aroma of tea, and Su Fei asked curiously,

"This tea has the most fragrant aroma I have ever smelled!"

Fang Hao looked at the bright light bulb and exclaimed,

"You're turning on the power in broad daylight? Aren't you afraid of wasting oil?"
