Chapter 2059 Don’t Worry, Brother, I’ll Take You Home Soon!
In the dark night, a team was marching forward. It was the mixed action team formed by the Eighth Route Army and Shang Zhenying after they captured the Japanese squad leader.
In addition, the puppet army surrendered, so they had to bring back their immediate family members. Li Shan promised to temporarily place these people in the base area.
Although the common people were familiar with the road, they could not walk fast with the elderly and children.
In order to increase the marching speed, the few people who surrendered carried their elderly or young children who were in poor health.
However, there were not enough people, so the people from Shang Zhenying's special action team also helped.
Xu Lang was also walking in this team, but he really didn't have the mood to care about those old men, old ladies, little girls, and little boys. He was a little confused by Qian Chuan'er's fake shot and didn't know what to do.
He didn't expect Qian Chuan'er to change his mind at the last minute when he was about to reach the county town!
They didn't go to the county town to rob the dead. They used the Eighth Route Army's insider to rob a squad leader from the Japanese artillery tower, and then they wanted to use this hostage to exchange the bodies with the Japanese army!
This time, including the courier, there were only four people from the Eighth Route Army. It was not like when Xu Lang was in the base area, where he could use the channels provided by the Japanese army to pass on the information.
This time he had no idea at all!
And even if he had a wired phone at this time, he couldn't send the message out, because Qian Chuan'er and Li Shan didn't inform him to take down the Japanese artillery tower at all.
It's inevitable to feel guilty if there's something wrong with you. Xu Lang thought, didn't Qian Chuan'er and Li Shan find out that there was something wrong with him.
He nervously recalled all his words and deeds since he joined the Japanese army and returned to the Eighth Route Army. He felt that he was fine, so he was relieved.
But who would have thought that in Lao Liu's house, Qian Chuan'er took the broken lamp and shook it in front of him like he was interrogating a prisoner, which made him unconfident.
And now, Qian Chuan'er has disappeared with a few people!
How can Xu Lang feel at ease?
At this time, Xu Lang realized that being an insider for the Japanese, of course, a traitor to the Eighth Route Army, is definitely not that easy.
And the Japanese squad leader captured by Qian Chuan'er and his men turned out to be the nephew of the Japanese battalion leader Qing Zhong, which gave him even more headaches.
He didn't have the ability to release the Japanese squad leader after he was out of the Japanese sphere of influence.
After this, Qing Zhong will come to settle accounts with him, right?
But he signed and sealed his confession with Qing Zhong, and he couldn't run away to other places now. Once Qing Zhong gave the confession to the Eighth Route Army, he couldn't escape the fate of being executed.
At this point, Xu Lang realized that being a traitor is really not a job for humans!
"Everyone hold on, after we walk a little further, there will be a carriage."
"Everyone hold on, after we walk a little further, there will be a carriage."
In the darkness, someone walked quickly from the back of the team, cheering everyone up as he walked. It was Li Shan.
Now they were marching in the dark, and Li Shan couldn't shout out loud, so he could only walk back and forth in the team and keep talking.
But just when Li Shan walked to Xu Lang's side, Xu Lang, who had originally not intended to say anything, couldn't help but whispered, "Why didn't I hear Qian Chuan'er's movement?"
In the darkness, Li Shan couldn't help but frowned when he heard Xu Lang's words.
Of course, Li Shan wouldn't suspect Xu Lang of being a traitor now. To say who is a traitor, you have to show evidence. If you can't show evidence, it will be a big deal if you just suspect.
You can suspect anyone, which actually means you can trust anyone, because you can't show evidence.
If you don't trust everyone, then you don't have to work.
The reason why Li Shan frowned was because he didn't like Xu Lang's literary way of speaking.
The whole Shandong people are saying "how", why do you say "how".
Don't underestimate this small difference. If you are working behind enemy lines, this small difference is enough to arouse the enemy's suspicion.
However, Xu Lang asked, he had to answer and said: "He is not in the team."
"Oh? Why?" Xu Lang expressed surprise.
"Who knows what he did." Li Shan answered casually.
"How could it be? Didn't he tell you at that time?" Xu Lang continued to express surprise.
"He said he had something to do. After all, he is not a member of our Eighth Route Army, so I can't say anything." Li Shan said.
Xu Lang said "Oh" and stopped talking.
His mind became more and more uneasy, and he even had a bad feeling, which was a torment worse than death.
Xu Lang walked like a zombie in the team until dawn.
And when they arrived at a village, there were really a few carriages coming to meet them.
These carriages were not from the Shang Zhen Camp that they took when they came here, but were transferred by the Eighth Route Army through their own connections.
The original plan was not to go to the county town to rob the remains of the martyrs, and these carriages were used to pull the remains.
The old, young, women and children were all invited to get on the car, and people like Xu Lang who had no missing arms and legs could only continue to be zombies in the team.
And at this time, Qian Chuan'er, Qin Chuan, Chen Hanwen and the old six had already appeared at the gate of the county town.
Qin Chuan and Chen Hanwen each carried two bundles of firewood on a pole, pretending to sell vegetables in the city.
What did Qian Chuan'er and his friends come here for?
After Qian Chuan'er successfully attacked the Japanese artillery tower, he suddenly had a new idea. He decided to take a few people to the county town.
The purpose of this trip was certainly not to take back the remains of the martyrs.
Let alone the four of them, even if their entire action team came, they would not be able to take them back if they tried to take them back.
Qian Chuan'er had only one purpose, that is, he planned to make some noise in the county town tonight, so that the Japanese army would think that they were here to take the bodies.
He just wanted to see if the Japanese army really had an ambush.
If the Japanese army really had an ambush here, it could only mean one thing, that is, there were indeed traitors in the Eighth Route Army!
Therefore, as long as the Japanese army had been prepared, this was much more powerful than the words that Lu Guo brought back!
Now that the Japanese army had not opened the city gate, Qian Chuan'er, Qin Chuan and Chen Hanwen looked at the row of bodies hanging under the city gate tower, and their expressions became complicated.
Let’s not talk about the two female corpses for now. The eleven male corpses are their brothers. They even figured out which one should be Shen Mugen’s!
Let’s not talk about Lao Liu. Qian Chuan, Qin Chuan, and Chen Hanwen are all veterans. To be honest, the veterans don’t feel anything about the dead after the war has reached this point because they have seen too many.
But the premise of not feeling anything about the dead is that they don’t know the dead. Even if they say that the dead are brothers of their Northeast Army, they will be angry but not as uncontrollable as they are now.
Chen Hanwen looked around and saw that there were not many people queuing to enter the city. The people in front and behind were still far away from him. After all, he couldn’t help but whispered: "Brother Mugen, don’t worry, I will take you home soon!"
