base of war

When Su Yuan passed by the bound Qin Yue, seeing her staring at him angrily, Su Yuan felt apologetic. He used her to follow him, and he didn't expect her to be implicated.He stepped forward to untie the rope for her, and said to Qin Zhongyue: "Since you treat me as a guest, then give me face, let her go and don't punish me, even without her, I will still find here."

"She violated the rules of the village!" Qin Zhongyue said, "I'm his father, so I can't play favoritism."

"Why, you arrested our anti-Japanese fighters privately. According to the national law, you are still undermining the anti-Japanese united front policy." Su Yuan immediately replied: "The country is bigger or your village is bigger? The mistake you made is bigger."

Su Yuan couldn't help saying that he stepped forward to untie the rope for Qin Yue, and there was no one around to stop him. Although Qin Zhongyue wanted to stop it, the other two elders rushed over to persuade him.

Su Yuan took out Qin Yue's dagger from his waist and handed it to her. Qin Yue snatched it up and said, "I see you are very honest. I didn't expect it to be a lie. I don't appreciate your favor."

"Ha, I don't know good people." Su Yuan replied indifferently.

Su Yuan followed the three elders to the conference hall in the village. Before he could bring up the matter of the wounded, Qin Zhongyue had already ordered the people waiting outside the door: "Go and take good care of the captured wounded, and let the doctor Show them the wound."

"Yes." The person at the door immediately responded.It seems that these three people do have absolute authority here, Su Yuan thought.

After taking their seats, the three of them asked about the situation outside without waiting for Su Yuan to say more. It seemed that they knew nothing about the past 300 years. When the Anti-Japanese War broke out, people here didn't know anything.

Su Yuan had no choice but to say it in a general way. He started from Li Zicheng who is well known here, "Li Zicheng, you all know that after he occupied Beijing, Chongzhen hanged himself on Meishan Mountain, but Li Zicheng was robbed by him before he could sit still in Beijing. Wu Sangui, the daughter-in-law, led the Qing soldiers into the customs, Li Zicheng was defeated by Dorgon, and then the Qing Dynasty ruled China for more than 260 years, until Mr. Sun Yat-sen led the Revolution of [-] to overthrow the rule of the Qing emperor, and now it is the Republic of China, a republic of the Republic of China.”

"Then why is there always fighting outside?" Qin Zhongyue asked.

"It's like this. After the death of the thief Yuan Shikai, China fell into a melee of warlords. The Zhili, Feng, and Anhui cliques fought together. Later, Jiang Gui, Feng, and Yan fought in the Central Plains. These warlords were all enemies with our Red Army, which fought for the people. , until the Japanese invaded, in terms of national justice, we finally gave up years of grievances and united to fight against Japan.”

"These devils are really so powerful that a country as big as ours can't beat them?" an elder asked in confusion.

"Then, the reason why the Manchu Qing ruled China for so many years is that firstly, we Han people were not allowed to have an independent army; Before the capture of Zhenjiang, the Manchu generals who led them massacred the common people, and nearly a thousand people were beheaded. The reason was that they took refuge and disturbed the morale of the army, so who would do anything for them. In addition, the literary prison clamped people's thinking, making Chinese technology Without development, closed-door policy and no access to foreign advanced technology, the backward China was unable to resist foreign aggression in modern times. Afterwards, many unequal treaties were signed to cede land, pay compensation, lose power and humiliate the country.”

Su Yuan’s words shocked those who came here in the Ming Dynasty. In their view, China was very powerful in the Ming Dynasty. An elder said: “I remember the old people said that in the Ming Dynasty, there was Qi Jiguang who fought against the Japanese. Not long before we moved here, we defeated the Japanese invaders at sea with North Korea, how can this happen now?"

"Of course, the Japanese invaders saw that we were not united and wanted to take advantage of the fire. It is not terrible that this country is poor and weak. What is terrible is that the internal struggles for their own interests give the enemy an opportunity. If we are united as one, how dare we be a little devil with a big knife and a spear Bully us!" Su Yuan said intentionally.

His words made the three elders fall into deep thought. It is true that the ancestors hid in this deep mountain in order to avoid the country’s civil strife, but now the country is facing the invasion of foreign enemies, and every Chinese should take up their weapons to resist foreign humiliation .

The three elders began to ask about the Eighth Route Army led by the Communist Party that Su Yuan joined.Seeing their excitement, Su Yuan immediately explained: "We are the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Armed Forces. We used to be the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, an armed force of ordinary people. In order to resist the war, we have been reorganized into the Eighth Route Army of the National Revolutionary Army of the government."

"Isn't that the same as the previous peasant rebellion!" Su Yuan's words put the three of them on guard. It's no wonder that most of the peasant uprisings in the past were for their own interests, and people here don't have a good impression.

"It's different. We have programs, policies, and party leadership, which represent the interests of the people." Su Yuan said: "I will ask our instructors to explain to you when I have a chance."

"With Young Master Su's family background, why did you join the Eighth Route Army? Also, where did you learn Shaolin Kung Fu?" Qin Zhongyue asked, Su Yuan's explanation was half-knowledgeable, so he wanted to learn more from Su Yuan's experience .

"It's like this. I learned martial arts from Master Kong Ming from Shaolin Temple, and later I learned how to shoot. The little devil was aggressive, so I joined the government army at the beginning of the War of Resistance, at Lugou Bridge..." Su Yuan said, everyone at Lugou Bridge knew about it. , they nodded and heard, "Our 29th Army first resisted the all-out war launched by the devils, and then I lost contact with the troops after the Xuzhou battle was interrupted. The central government traded space for time. The large troops withdrew, and I stayed behind the enemy We met the Eighth Route Army, and now we are fighting against the Japanese invaders behind the enemy lines, and with the support of Feiyunshan and Qinglongshan armed forces, we are planning to establish an anti-Japanese base area in this area. This time the devils attacked us, and we were forced to evacuate the wounded to the deep mountains. I don't want to meet you."

"Have courage and insight, good!" Everyone replied, and an elder said: "From the actions of Young Master Su, you can see that you are brave in battle. Even the bandits can listen to you, and you are willing to take risks alone for the sake of the wounded. You are a disciple of Master Shaolin, we are relieved of you."

"That's good, I'm not in vain." Su Yuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Put a banquet, let's treat the national heroes well." Qin Zhongyue ordered.

Before the banquet started, Su Yuan went to see the wounded. The wounded were both moved and relieved when they saw him coming.

During the dinner, Su Yuan, who was wounded and rushed here after continuous fighting, was quite exhausted. He had been holding on for a long time, and he felt a little relaxed so far. After a few glasses of wine, Su Yuan felt a little tired. Unable to stand it any longer, Qin Zhongyue and others noticed that Su Yuan was seriously injured, and he was able to persist until now.

The three elders looked at each other, and then Qin Zhongyue shouted: "Yue'er, help Young Master Su go down and rest."

"I'm really sorry." Su Yuan said apologetically.

"It should be us who should apologize." The three elders replied.After Su Yuan left with Qin Yue, the three of them said: "If he can live tonight as we want, then we can rest assured."

"Yes." Qin Zhongyue said: "At that time, we will not only release him, but also give him the greatest help, and even send someone to follow him to fight the devil."
