Chapter 2102 Choice (I)

"When a commoner is angry, he will take off his hat and go barefoot, banging his head on the ground."

The common people refer to the ordinary people. When the common people get angry, they just take off their hats, stand barefoot, and bang their heads against the ground.

This passage is recorded in ancient books and is said to be the King of Qin's description of the common people.

But he didn't expect that later on, the common people in Daze Township would say, "Are kings, dukes, generals, and ministers of different species?"

The people, who were forced into a corner, rose up in rebellion, and ultimately the Qin Dynasty was destroyed.

However, the question "Are kings, princes, generals, and ministers born into a certain family?" has influenced the Chinese for thousands of years. Eventually, later generations concluded that the Chinese do not believe in aristocratic bloodline at all. Whose ancestor has not been an emperor?

The above is the anger of the common people, so what about the anger of the soldiers? They would pick up guns and start fighting, such as the injured Cheng Peng, Hu Zhuzi who just expressed disrespect to Wang Laomao, and many veterans.

To use Hu Zhuzi's words, I'm not afraid of the Japanese devils, but I am afraid of a little chicken like you, Zhao Tieying!

Shang Zhenying has already become enemies with Zhao Tieying.

Not to mention the distant past, just this time, they launched a surprise attack on the Japanese army from behind and destroyed most of the Japanese baggage train, forcing the Japanese army to end the so-called mopping-up operation ahead of schedule. However, the three main regiments of their own division did not pursue the victory but retreated instead. How could the people in Shang Zhenying be convinced?
Now Zhao Tieying has arrested Wang Laomao, the actual leader of their battalion. What can the soldiers do?

At this time Chu Tian and Qian Chuan'er said that they would take a long-term view, but they did not have absolute authority among the remaining people in their camp. Even the company commander Cheng Peng did not listen to them, and the soldiers who originally belonged to Cheng Peng's company would not listen to them even more.

In this situation, it became "politically correct" to snatch back the deputy battalion commander Wang Laomao, but the two of them could not control those officers and soldiers.

However, just when the crowd was about to take up their guns and go into battle, everyone was finally "pressed" back by one person. That person was Qiu Bo who came from the direction of the division headquarters.

After pushing these people back into the house, Qiu Bo just said one sentence: "When the battalion commander was here, he told us that we had to use our brains no matter what kind of battle we were fighting. Now, even if we are going to rescue Uncle Wang, we still have to use our brains. Do I need to tell you this?

Let's go back to the house, we need to discuss this matter!"

Qiu Bo successfully used this sentence to calm down those hot-blooded veterans, including Hu Zhuzi, who stopped rushing forward with a roar. To put it accurately, Qiu Bo successfully used this sentence to awaken the veterans' tactical awareness when fighting the enemy in normal times.

This is just like the last time Zhao Tieying brought people to fight, but unexpectedly Shang Zhenying used means to fight the enemy. Although they were not cruel, they still beat Zhao Tieying and his people badly. Of course, this included Lou Yue, who is still with them.

"You guys can chat together, let's avoid this matter for now, we'll wait outside.

It's not a good idea for us to leave now. We will go with you once you decide on the action." This was all Lou Yue could say in front of the room full of angry officers and soldiers.

After saying this, he walked out of the house without looking back. Two of his soldiers who had squeezed in with him also followed him out.

Now Lou Yue’s position has become extremely awkward.

If he had not fought side by side with Qian Chuan'er this time, he would undoubtedly stand with his own regiment, that is, Zhao Tieying's group.

But now it’s different!
Anyone who is not blind and anyone who truly wants to fight the Japanese devils knows that this time, and of course not just this time, Zhao Tieying is in the wrong.

What's more, those few people from their regiment who first surrendered to Shang Zhen's camp told Lou Yue that Zhao Tieying's order to them was to kill Shang Zhen secretly.

But after all, Lou Yue is still a member of Zhao Tieying's Group. If you ask him to join Shang Zhen's camp like those soldiers, he really can't do it.

But if you ask him to run back to Zhao Tieying now and say that the remaining people in Shang Zhen’s camp are discussing how to deal with you, he will not be able to do such a thing.

It would be fine if he didn't know, but he did know. What do you want him to do?
He can neither defect from Zhao Tieying's group nor stand on Zhao Tieying's side and lie against his conscience, so isn't he in a dilemma?

After analyzing the situation, he realized that he could only stand outside and wait patiently. It would be best to first find out about Shang Zhenying's plan to rescue Wang Laomao.

"Hey, platoon leader, what the hell is going on here?" Standing outside the door, his straightforward soldier said without even shying away from the fact that someone from Shang Zhen's camp was right next to him.

But he just said this, Lou Yue, who was looking gloomy, glared at him, and he kept silent. Yes, what kind of a mess is this? It was self-evident who his soldiers were scolding.

Shang Zhenying is always right, so what right does he have to scold him?

But Lou Yue understood better, what's the point of just scolding people? He can scold people, and his scolding is more flowery than others, but scolding people can't solve the problem!
The key is what to do? But now he doesn't know what to do!
Lou Yue sighed again, and he looked at the dozen or so soldiers under his command. They were all looking at him.

Staring at each other won't solve the problem. Lou Yue suddenly had an idea and asked, "What do you think we should do?"

"What should we do?" a soldier asked.

"Fuck! Just say it when I tell you to, every one of you say it!" The soldier's question made Lou Yue so angry that he swore. The matter was obvious, but the soldier who asked him was the smartest one in their platoon and had the best personal relationship with him. That guy was just pretending to be confused even though he knew the truth!
"You are the boss, I will do whatever you do!" said the soldier with a smile.

"I told you to die, why didn't you die?" Lou Yue said unhappily.

"Didn't I tell you that I will do whatever you do, even if it means dying? Aren't you the one leading the charge?" The soldier was not afraid of him.

We have been together for more than ten years, and we all know each other. What he meant was, if you charge forward in a war, then I will follow you. If you are not afraid of death, then I am not afraid of death either. If you have something to do and you hide, then I will hide too!

"Oh, I don't have time to talk nonsense with you. Just tell me, if there was a quarrel between their battalion and our regiment and someone died, which side would we stand on? Tell us one by one!" Lou Yue had no choice but to make it clear.

These words are quite sensitive. You have to know that there are not only the dozen or so people from Zhao Tieying's Regiment outside Shang Zhen's camp, but also many soldiers from Shang Zhen's camp.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

As soon as they heard that Wang Laomao was arrested by Zhao Tieying, all the more than one hundred people left in the battalion ran away.

There were only a hundred people left in the camp, and now there were more than a dozen unfamiliar people at the door. How could they not ask? Those who knew now knew, and those who didn't know now knew the origins of Lou Yue and the others.

Now when they heard Lou Yue mention such a sensitive topic, they all stopped talking and looked over.

The dozen or so soldiers under Lou Yue were just ordinary soldiers, but they did not expect that they would become the target of public criticism. It was impossible to say that they were not nervous.

Lou Yue asked them to express their opinions, but who could express them at that moment?

"Don't act like a sissy, just treat it as fighting the Japanese, charge when necessary, you are grown men, say whatever you think!" Lou Yue said angrily.

"Then why don't you say it?" said to his best soldier.

"Fuck, I'm asking you, just say it!" Lou Yue was unwilling to express his opinion first. He was really in a dilemma.

"If you weren't here, I'd stand with whoever is right." The soldier spoke first, "We're fighting the Japanese no matter who we're with." After all, they had a good relationship, and he also figured out Lou Yue's dilemma.

For every one who expressed his opinion, there was a second one: "It's ok to fight with my own people, but it's not okay to fight to the death. Killing the devils is against my temper."

"I've been in the pass for more than ten years. This is the first time I fight the Japanese at such close range. My heart is pounding. It's so exciting!" The third one also expressed his opinion.

"That's right. We've been fighting the Japanese devils for more than ten years, but this is the first time we've captured a Japanese officer's command knife. No matter what happens in the future, I can brag about this for the rest of my life." Another soldier muttered.

This soldier was the one who took the knife off the wall in Dongwa Town.

After the fourth one finished speaking, more soldiers expressed their opinions one after another. The general idea was similar. However, some people felt that the discipline in Shang Zhen’s camp was too strict, but they did not want to be separated from their group, so they reluctantly agreed with the others’ views.

"Erbinzi, why don't you say anything?" Lou Yue asked a soldier who had been silent.

"I can't compare with you. I have two younger brothers in our group." The second guest said with a wry smile.

Lou Yue was of course aware of Er Binzi's situation, and it was a puzzling matter. They were all members of the Northeast Army and they insisted on fighting to the death, which would be a headache for anyone.

But before he could say anything else, the door rang and Qian Chuaner came out and said to him, "We, the leaders, invite you in."
