A post-apocalyptic female soul travels back to the War of Resistance against Japan
Chapter 32 Discovering the Traitor
After returning to their stronghold, Cheng Ying and her companions began to count the grain they had stolen from the bandits. They decided to return the grain to the nearby villages in batches to help the villagers get through their difficulties.
Near Lincheng, there were more than a dozen villages. Cheng Ying and her soldiers delivered the grain to each village in trucks, distributing it one by one. Of course, the grain couldn't be distributed indiscriminately. They first communicated with the village chiefs of each village to tally the amount of grain lost by the villagers. The villagers were very honest; they accepted exactly what they had lost and didn't ask for any more.
After distributing grain to each village, any surplus was further distributed to each village. This was because Cheng Ying had stored more than twice the amount of grain the bandits had stolen, all in an effort to improve everyone's lives. The remaining grain went to the army, and representatives from each nearby village sent to thank Cheng Ying and her team for helping them recover their grain. Otherwise, they would have starved to death in winter, a particularly difficult time. The people were already poor; some families only had two sets of cotton-padded coats, which whoever went out wore them. When the bandits stole their winter grain, it felt like the sky had fallen. So, after the Eighth Route Army retrieved their grain from the bandits, they practically knelt down and kowtowed to them in gratitude.
Captain Sun then stepped in to comfort the villagers, saying, "Fellow villagers, we are all Chinese. We all share a common goal: to drive out the Japanese invaders and restore peace to this land. Now, whether they are bandits or invaders, we will spare no effort to fight them. In the future, no matter what happens, we will work together to help each other overcome difficulties." Hearing Captain Sun's words, the villagers wiped away their tears. "Captain Sun, if it weren't for you, we ordinary people wouldn't even have survived this winter. You are our benefactors, you saved our lives!"
When Captain Sun and Cheng Ying heard what the villagers said, they were also deeply moved. After all, food is life. Without thick cotton-padded coats, one can stay at home without going out, but without food, one will starve to death.
Captain Sun said, "Fellow villagers, listen to me. We are all Chinese sons and daughters from our own families. Our goal is to help people live a better life. If your lives are good, and there are no more bandits or Japanese invasions, that's what we hope for. If anything happens in the future, or if you see anyone who looks like a traitor or spy, please report it to us. We can't let them take advantage of us." "Alright, everyone, disperse." Captain Sun waved his hand, signaling everyone to leave.
The villagers left one by one, leaving only Captain Sun, Cheng Ying, and a few others at the scene.
As Cheng Ying watched the departing crowd, she said softly, "Captain Sun, we must protect this land and ensure that the people live a peaceful life."
Captain Sun nodded, his gaze firm, and said, "Yes, it is our responsibility. However, the current situation remains severe, and we must be even more vigilant."
At that moment, a soldier rushed over, saluted, and reported: "Captain, according to reliable intelligence, the Japanese army may be planning a major operation soon."
Captain Sun frowned, pondered for a moment, and then made a decision: "Immediately strengthen vigilance and send people to scout enemy movements. Cheng Ying, you lead a team to closely monitor the situation inside the city and report any abnormalities immediately."
"Yes!" Cheng Ying accepted the order and left.
Captain Sun watched her retreating figure, and he knew in his heart that this girl was quite capable! It was fortunate that she was assigned here; they were lucky!
For the past two days, Cheng Ying and her teammates had been scattered throughout the city, keeping an eye out for any unusual activity. One day, while casually turning her head, she noticed a woman slipping into an empty alley. This aroused her suspicion, as women are generally very timid and cautious, and wouldn't go to secluded places alone. Cheng Ying followed closely behind, looking towards the alley. She saw the woman very cautiously observing her surroundings before speeding up and turning a corner. Cheng Ying seized the opportunity to give chase, but when she turned the corner, the woman had vanished without a trace, as if she had disappeared.
Cheng Ying found the woman extremely suspicious and knew she had to find her as soon as possible. She cautiously made her way forward, only to come to a fork in the road. Cheng Ying was immediately unsure which way to go. She randomly chose the right-hand path and walked for a while, but still saw no one. Moreover, the area seemed increasingly desolate. Cheng Ying wondered what to do. She couldn't find anyone!
