The war of resistance against mountains is heavy

Chapter 2025 Liar

Da Lao Ben and Bian Xiaolong came back. Bian Xiaolong was shot and was carried back by Da Lao Ben.

Bian Xiaolong was shot in the calf. According to Da Laoben, the bullet was stuck between two bones. Da Laoben wanted to treat the wound directly with a clumsy method.

The so-called stupid method is to cut the flesh directly with a knife, then use a rifle cleaning rod to burn it red and insert it to disinfect it, and then apply some herbs that Da Laoben found in the mountains.

Da Laoben himself is a man who speaks very simply. What he said about the process of healing Bian Xiaolong was just a few words, but everyone could imagine the pain that Bian Xiaolong suffered during this process.

Being a soldier is not easy, and being a female soldier is even harder!

It should be said that Bian Xiaolong was very lucky because the bullet hit her limbs. If the bullet had hit her body and damaged her internal organs, then even if Hua Tuo were alive, he probably wouldn't have been able to cure her!
Because Bian Xiaolong was injured like this, the two of them came back late.

To everyone's disappointment, neither of them knew Shang Zhen's whereabouts.

Because when they and Shang Zhen were trying to break out from Wujiaopo, Bian Xiaolong was shot, and as everyone knows, Shang Zhen went towards Baotagou.

Finally, on the next morning, Chu Tian asked Qian Chuaner, Shen Mugen, Ma Tianfang, and Chen Hanwen to lead a group of people to live directly in Baotagou Village and then look for Shang Zhen's whereabouts.

Their leader followed Da Laoben's advice and tried to see if he could find some herbs in the mountains that could treat gunshot wounds.

After all, they still have so many lightly and seriously injured people who need treatment. Even if there is no cure, they have to do their best. They can't just watch their people die like that!
That’s the end of Shang Zhen’s story.

If an ordinary soldier was missing, they would just treat him as killed in action. But this time, since the missing person was their battalion commander Shang Zhen, no one talked about it anymore, but they all retained a glimmer of hope in their hearts.

I hope that one morning, Shang Zhen will appear in front of them again, full of energy and energy, carrying his box gun.

Or it could be said that being extrovert and lively was not Shang Zhen's character. The accurate statement should be that one morning, when the wakeup call sounded on the big plank bed where the soldiers slept, a man stretched himself sleepily and got up with them. That man was their battalion commander Shang Zhen.

There is only one reason for this. Their battalion commander Shang Zhen is just like them, an ordinary soldier. Except for commanding a battle, he has no other privileges!
This is the situation in Shang Zhen's camp. Shang Zhen has either been killed in action or has been injured and is recovering from his injuries and will return at some point in time. This can only be left to time, and this also includes this possibility - no one sees him alive or dead, and he eventually becomes a missing person.

But at this time, in a house in the Eighth Route Army base, Shang Zhen had already been declared dead!

The person who determined Shang Zhen’s death was Xu Lang.

Sitting opposite Xu Lang were several senior officers of the Eighth Route Army with solemn faces, as well as Leng Xiaomu!
"Are you sure that you saw Shang Zhen get shot and fall into the water after he came down the mountain?" asked the officer in charge of the interrogation.

"Yes, I saw it with my own eyes!" Xu Lang replied.

"What mountain cliff did he fall off?" asked the officer.

"I asked around when I came back and was told that the mountain is called Pagoda Hill," Xu Lang replied.

"Are you sure that Comrade Wang Chuan has died?" the officer asked again.

"Yes, when Comrade Wang Chuan led the comrades from District Team and I to charge out, we were hit by the Japanese devils." Xu Lang replied.

"Where were you at the time?" the officer asked.

"I was with Comrade Wang Chuan at the time. I saw him being shot, so I went to help him. He just said one sentence, 'Rush out quickly,' and then he died," Xu Lang replied.

"Then how did you see Shang Zhen was shot?" the officer asked. "At that time, there was no sound of gunfire from the southwest, so I ran west.

It was getting dark and I didn't know where to go. I ran for half the night and crossed a river. Then I fell asleep because I was tired and hungry.

But not long after I woke up, I heard gunshots again, and then I saw the Japanese devils besieging Baota Hill.

The river was right at the foot of the mountain at Pagoda Hill, and I was watching from behind the willow trees on the other side of the river.

Around noon, Shang Zhen rushed down the mountain, was hit by a Japanese bullet, and then jumped into the river. Immediately afterwards, the Japanese devils fired into the river again, and Shang Zhen never came out again.

Those Japanese devils were very close to Shang Zhen at that time, and I am sure he had been killed.

Because I saw blood in the river!" This time Xu Lang described it in great detail, describing the entire process of Shang Zhen's death.

During the entire narration, Xu Lang did not look at Leng Xiaozhi, because he could guess what Leng Xiaozhi's expression was even without looking.

Xu Lang was very fluent throughout the entire process of answering. It was not that he seemed not to need to think, but that he did not need to think at all.

The reason is that he only changed the smallest part of what he experienced, that is, he omitted the part about his surrender to the Japanese army, and changed it to the whole process of him as a bystander seeing Shang Zhen being beaten to death.

Although he hated Shang Zhen in his heart, he would never accuse Shang Zhen of the crime that the old Japanese devil from Qingzhong had charged him with - treason, that is, to slander Shang Zhen as a traitor, as that would be too much of a lie.

Xu Lang is an opportunist. He has told too many lies and he has experience in lying.

Is it so easy to lie? And it costs you your head!

If Qingzhong hadn't threatened him with his experience of defecting to the enemy and forced him to come back and work undercover for the Japanese army, he would never have come back.

But he couldn't afford to offend Qingzhong so he had to come back, and if he came back he had to lie.

How can you tell a good lie?

That is to base it on the vast majority of facts and only change a very small part of them, so that you can answer the questions without changing your expression!
"Where is Comrade Wang Chuan's body?" The Eighth Route Army officer in charge of the interrogation glanced at Leng Xiaozhi and asked when he saw that Leng Xiaozhi had no questions.

"I'm not sure about this. Who knows who collected the bodies of our comrades in the end? Was it the people from Shang Zhenying, or the local people?" Xu Lang told the truth.

"Have you seen Shang Zhen's body?" Leng Xiaozhi asked at this time.

"I saw Shang Zhen get shot and fall into the river in front of me and never come out again." Xu Lang answered without even looking at Leng Xiaozhi.
At this moment, he was not thinking about how much he hated Shang Zhen or how much he longed for Leng Xiaozhi.

He couldn't allow himself to have any psychological fluctuations, otherwise there might be flaws in his expression.

He always believed that the highest level of lying is to tell so many lies that in the end you think everything you say is true, and that is when it will sound realistic!

Leng Xiaozhi looked at Xu Lang expressionlessly, but what could she tell from Xu Lang's expression alone? She was not a god.

So, after looking for a while, she finally turned her eyes to the files on the table, and she remembered the two place names mentioned by Xu Lang - Wujiaopo and Baotagou.

She decided to find Shang Zhen herself. She had to find Shang Zhen because Shang Zhen was the father of her child. She, Leng Xiaozhi, was pregnant!
