I am an artillery soldier

Chapter 526 Persuasion
When the villagers followed Liu Gen to the place where the ghosts and puppet soldiers died and saw the ghosts and puppet soldiers killed by Liu Gen, the villagers did not have much fear.In such troubled times, the villagers have seen too many deaths. Many people still couldn't help kicking these dead devils and puppet soldiers.

When these devils and puppet soldiers were alive, the villagers did not have the courage to resist, they were not trained, and they did not have any weapons in their hands.There is no way to fight the devils at all.Now that these devils and puppet soldiers have been killed, the villagers don't feel relieved until they kick them.

Liu Gen looked at all this and did not stop the behavior of the folks. He understood why the folks did this.

"Folks, you should all remember how much food these ghosts and puppet troops took away. I hope you don't take more, just take your own share. I will supervise everyone here and hope everyone can cooperate." Liu Gen looked at the people present The folks here look extremely serious.

In order to avoid people taking too much food, Liu Gen could only explain to these villagers in advance that food is very important in this year.Liu Gen didn't know what these folks were thinking, but as long as he was here, he wouldn't let such a thing happen.

The folks have no opinion, they have no other ideas, as long as they can get back their own rations, and as for more food, they have no extravagance.These folks are very aware of the importance of food, and they also understand that if they get too much food, it will inevitably lead to others not having enough rations.

Looking at these very cooperative folks, Liu Gen was somewhat moved. The folks are really good and very simple. At this time, they don't have too many other thoughts.

Twenty or ten minutes later, the villagers all got their own food. There was not much food in their hands, but the obvious joy could still be seen on their faces.For these folks, the food in their hands has already made them very satisfied. With this food, their life will be better in the future, at least they will not be reduced to eating bark.

"Folks, these devils and puppet troops were killed by our Eighth Route Army troops. The devils will definitely come to search. You don't have to hide it, otherwise they may vent their anger on you."

"When everyone goes back, I hope everyone will hide these rations so that they will not be discovered by devils again." Liu Gen said to the villagers.

Liu Gen wanted these folks to leave the village directly, but they left the village.Where can they go?What's more, Liu Gen also knows that even if he wants to let these villagers leave the village, they will not be willing to leave. For these villagers, the village is their root. There's really no way, otherwise the folks wouldn't have left at all.

"Little comrade, don't worry, we will hide these rations when we go back."

"This time it was also due to the sudden arrival of the devil. We were not fully prepared. We will pay attention to this in the future, so that such a thing will not happen easily again." The old village chief stood up and said confidently.The devils were not familiar with their village. The old village chief believed that as long as the villagers hid the rations well, it would be impossible for the devils to find them.

"Old village chief, don't be careless. The devils have guns in their hands. No matter how well you hide them, you won't be able to do anything if they use them."

"Old existence, if possible, I still hope that everyone can leave the village, either go into the mountains, or find our Eighth Route Army troops, and go deep into the anti-Japanese base area, where it is safer. To be honest, your village is far away from the devils. The stronghold is too close, and the devils are too much of a threat to everyone." Liu Gen said seriously.

The old village head fell silent. He looked at the villagers around him, and he could see that the villagers were also a little silent. He knew what Liu Gen said was right, but he felt a little bit reluctant to leave the existence.It's not that the old village head is ignorant of the ferocity of the devil, but even if an old man like him dies, he will die in the village. If he really leaves, the old village head wonders whether it is possible to return to the village.

"Little comrade, I understand your concern, but I am old and don't want to leave the village."

"When I go back, I will tell the young people in the village to leave the village. It's okay for us old guys to stay. The young people will let them go if they can." In the end, the old village head said so.

Liu Gen nodded. He believed that the old village chief understood how evil the devils and puppet soldiers were. It would be difficult to leave the village, but only by getting out of the village could he ensure his own safety to the greatest extent.In the anti-Japanese base areas, there are many old people like the old village head who are unwilling to leave the village. Liu Gen can understand the situation of the old village head.

"That's good."

"Folks, I will leave. After returning, everyone will live a good life. I believe that one day we will be able to drive the devils back to our hometown, and then the life of the villagers will be much better." Before leaving, Liu Gen did not forget to encourage the villagers We continue to persevere, he knows the final result of this war, and hopes that the folks can persevere until that time.

"Little comrade, have a safe trip."

"Little comrade, we believe your words, and believe that the Eighth Route Army will definitely be able to drive the devils back to their hometown."

"..."

Out of the sight of the villagers, Liu Gen found out the loot he had hidden before, and quickly walked towards the place where the horse was hidden.Killing these ghosts and puppet troops did not waste Liu Gen's time. Instead, it took Liu Gen a lot of time to deal with it after the war, but there was no other way.

When he came to the place where the horse was hidden, Liu Gen put the trophy he was carrying on the horse's back. After estimating the weight, he gave up the idea of ​​continuing to ride the horse.Originally, the horse had the local specialties sent by the folks from the No. [-] branch factory, plus the spoils that Liu Gen put on it, a hill was directly piled up on the horse's back.Liu Gen was very worried that if he rode again, the horse would not be able to hold on to the division headquarters.

Liu Gen led the horse away. He had two pistols hanging from his waist, both of which were loaded with bullets. The speed of returning to the division headquarters would be much slower. He was very worried about what enemies he might encounter on the way.Putting two pistols around his waist can also give Liu Gen a sense of security. If he really encounters an enemy, he can launch a counterattack in the shortest possible time.

Leading the horse forward was much slower than Liu Gen's riding a horse, but even so, Liu Gen's forward speed was much faster than ordinary soldiers.During this period, it was not his own physical strength that affected Liu Gen's forward speed, but the horse's too many things and it could not walk fast. This made Liu Gen need to take care of the horse's speed, which made Liu Gen slower than Liu Gen's full speed. few.

In the evening, Liu Gen was already very close to the division headquarters, and he would be able to successfully return to the division headquarters in an hour, but what made Liu Gen a little helpless was that the horse could no longer walk.Who would have thought that it was not Liu Gen who couldn't bear it first, but the horse, and Liu Gen was also very helpless about this.In order to be able to return to the division headquarters as soon as possible, Liu Gen could only take part of the booty from the horse and carry it on his own to reduce the burden on the horse.

With Liu Gen's support, the horse relaxed a lot, and the speed gradually picked up.

An hour later, Liu Gen successfully returned to the division headquarters. After seeing the spoils of war carried on Liu Gen's body, the patrolling soldiers rushed up to greet him.The soldiers were a little puzzled, they didn't understand why Liu Gen didn't put these trophies on the horse, but after seeing the state of the horse, the soldiers understood why Liu Gen did this.

The soldiers could clearly see that the horse was very tired, which made them realize that Liu Gen should have chosen to return to the division headquarters without much rest on the road. Looking at the energetic Liu Gen, the soldiers looked at Liu Gen It became strange, why is Liu Gen not tired at all?Looking at the exhausted horse, at this moment, the soldiers seemed to understand something.

"Captain Liu, this horse looks very tired. I don't know where you want to take it?" The soldiers asked with some distress when they saw Liu Gen pulling the horse and continuing to walk towards the division headquarters.

In the Eighth Route Army, horses are precious, and even in the division headquarters there are not many horses.For many soldiers, they seldom have the opportunity to ride horses, but this does not mean that the soldiers do not care about the condition of the horses. This does not mean that the horse led by Liu Gen is very tired, and the soldiers can't help it. He opened his mouth, wanting the horse to rest as soon as possible.

For these soldiers, it was the first time they had seen a horse so tired after staying in the division headquarters for so long. Even in some emergencies, they had never seen such a situation.

"The local specialties on this horse are local specialties that the folks asked me to bring to the teachers and bosses. I need to send these local specialties there." Liu Gen explained.

The soldiers were slightly taken aback, but they didn't expect that these things were going to be given to the teachers and bosses. Originally, they thought that these things were going to be brought to the cooking class.Now it seems that these things have extremely important significance and need to be handed over to the teachers and bosses for disposal.

"Captain Liu, let's help you carry these things, let this horse go to rest earlier, I think it is exhausted." The captain of the patrol team said.

Liu Gen hesitated, "Aren't you on patrol? Don't you need to continue patrolling?"

"Our patrol is over, and we will have a rotation. If we really need to continue patrolling, we dare not do such a thing." The patrol leader explained.The soldiers of the division headquarters are very serious when patrolling.They all know how much responsibility they have on their shoulders, and their patrols determine the safety of the division headquarters.

Every time they are on patrol, the soldiers are very conscious. Many people will put a dried chili in their pockets. Whenever they feel sleepy, the soldiers will take out the dried chili and take a bite. Immediately, the whole person can be refreshed. .After the patrol, many soldiers can smell the obvious chili smell on their bodies, but for some soldiers who can't eat spicy food, their lips will swell a lot after the patrol.

It was because the soldiers were serious enough that the division did not have any problems, nor did it encounter any great danger.

The division commander once praised the soldiers in charge of the division's security work, saying that with them, he could sleep well every night without worrying that devil troops would touch his side.

For the soldiers in charge of defending the division headquarters, the commander's praise is the best reward for them. Being able to be responsible for protecting the division headquarters is an honor to the soldiers, an honor that is enough to make them sacrifice their lives.

"Okay, then I will trouble comrades." Liu Gen said with a smile after knowing that these soldiers did not need to continue patrolling.

There was obvious joy on the faces of the soldiers. They quickly took the things off the horses. The weight made the soldiers a little surprised. Why did the villagers send so many souvenirs?When they saw that there were rifles and bullets among these things, the soldiers became more and more puzzled. The souvenirs given by the villagers were a bit too special.

"Oh, by the way, I got these weapons and ammunition from killing a group of devils and puppet soldiers on the road. I don't know where to send them?" Seeing the [-] rifles taken down by the soldiers, Liu Gen realized that he almost lost his mind. Forget about the loot.

The soldiers looked at Liu Gen with some admiration. They knew the fighting power of the devils, and even if the fighting power of the puppet army was not strong, it could be seen from the number of these guns that there were many enemies.What Liu Gen said was very simple, but the soldiers clearly knew the danger of this kind of battle. You must know that Liu Gen was alone, without any helpers, and he was able to easily kill so many enemies, which these soldiers could not do of.

"Xiao Wang, take two comrades and send these weapons and equipment to the military supply department." The patrol captain said.

"Yes!"

Soon, the three comrades headed by Xiao Wang carried the trophies captured by Liu Gen and walked towards the military supply department. There were so many of these things that it was difficult for a soldier to take them all away. Did you strip everything off your body?
"Let's go too. Send these souvenirs to the teacher and the others earlier, so that you can rest earlier." Liu Gen said with a smile.

Naturally, the soldiers didn't have any complaints. With the daily training and patrol missions, they were not easy every day, and they were somewhat tired.It's just that the soldiers are a little excited to be able to give these souvenirs to the teachers and bosses. The teachers can often see them, but the number of times they see the bosses is not too much.

Many soldiers looked at Liu Gen with fiery eyes. They knew that it was not because of Liu Gen, so they would not have such a chance.At the same time, the soldiers admired Liu Gen more and more. Thinking of Liu Gen single-handedly killing a group of devils and puppet troops, they couldn't hide their admiration for Liu Gen. It would be great if they could be as strong as Liu Gen.

Under the leadership of Liu Gen, a group of people continued to walk towards the depths of the division headquarters. Along the way, they attracted the attention of many soldiers.
