The War of Resistance

"Batalion Commander, can we raise our own flag?" Qian Chuan'er suggested to Shang Zhen not long after leaving Baodugu.

"Which flag?" Shang Zhen was stunned for a moment, then said, "Oh, I remembered, the one you did."

After hesitating for a moment, Shang Zhen understood Qian Chuan'er's intention, so he replied: "The little devils are gone, what can't we fight?"

So, soon a flag was picked up by the soldiers with a poplar pole cut down by the roadside.

The flag happened to be apricot, and there were some large white characters written on the flag. That was the number of Shang Zhen's battalion: 3rd Battalion, 583rd Regiment, 113th Division.

Zhang Zhen knew there was such a flag because Qian Chuan'er asked him when he was making this flag. Shang Zhen was learning Zen from Da Laoben at the time, so he gave the answer "neither left nor right."

Most people would really not know what Shang Zhen meant, but Qian Chuan'er did.

What Shang Zhen meant was that the flag of the Republic of China, with its blue sky and white sun and red ground all over the ground, could not be used, because they did not want to deal with the Central Army and did not have a good impression of the Central Army.

And they can't use red flags. If they are red flags, they will be suspected of that.

Under the influence of Shang Zhen, their entire battalion was pro-communist, and they also formed a certain form of strategic alliance with the Lunan guerrillas, but they could not blatantly use the red flag.

So Qian Chuaner used an apricot-yellow flag ingeniously. According to him, this flag was the flag raised by Sun Wukong of Huaguoshan. It should have read "Monkey King"!

In short, a flag is like a business card, which can make the common people remember that Shang Zhen's camp is unique.

But who would have thought that when Qian Chuan'er actually raised this flag at Shang Zhen's camp, Shang Zhen just glanced at it and said, it's too gorgeous and it's apricot, so don't make a fool of yourself. , what can be done if this spreads to the division headquarters?

So the flag was only used once and then put away by Qian Chuan'er.

But this time the situation is different.

Since Shang Zhen and the others came out of Sunjia Village, they have seen along the way that although the Japanese army's current march to the countryside has not reached a situation where locusts have passed through and no grass can grow, they have seen many new graves in the suburbs during their march, and some villages and towns cannot be said to be... It is devastated, but the houses destroyed by the war can be seen.

Sometimes some villages and towns are intact, but a few houses have been burned down, just like a good person with a few scars on his black and thick hair, which really makes people hate the Japanese invaders. meaning.

It stands to reason that when a Chinese army like them appears, the common people should welcome it. However, the situation is exactly the opposite. When the common people see them along the way, they either have fear or hatred on their faces. The most friendly attitude is to face them. With no expression on his face, he stayed away.

Why do people treat them like this? Everyone in Shang Zhen's camp knew it very well. Perhaps as far as the common people were concerned, the biggest difference between the Northeastern Army and the Japanese Army was that they did not kill the common people (not counting the fact that Liu Daorui's group killed Sun Baoer's father's entire family). )

Although Shang Zhen's camp discipline has always been good, the common people would never tell which part they belong to, so one can imagine their plight along the way.

Now that he has finally entered his guerrilla zone, Qian Chuan'er is responsible for their battalion's intelligence, reconnaissance and external liaison. He believes that with the relationship between his third battalion and the people in the guerrilla zone, as long as he lights up the yellow flag of the third battalion, Go out and let the people know that the Third Battalion is back. Then the people's attitude towards them will be better than outside the guerrilla zone, right?

But what happens next?

In fact, when Shang Zhen and his team raised the apricot-yellow flag belonging to their camp in front, the people on the road started to point their fingers when they saw it.

"Fly the flag well, don't let the wind roll up the flag, let them see our number clearly!" Qian Chuan'er ordered the soldier holding the flag.

"How can it be so easy to lift? It's so heavy." The soldier muttered dissatisfiedly.

In fact, I really don’t blame the soldier.

Their flagpole was a temporary poplar pole cut on the roadside. Although the poplar pole was not frozen, it was still wet.

Even if the poplar pole is very thin and solid from tip to root, it still has to be as thick as an egg. After all, my arms will be sore after lifting it for a while.

"What are you talking about? You dare to talk back to me, don't you?" Qian Chuan'er was unhappy when he heard the soldier complain.

"Big old fool, big old fool, oh, big old fool is in front." Qian Chuan'er finally wanted to find someone strong enough to hold the flag.

Then he naturally thought of the strongest Big Boss, but the Big Boss was not in front of him, but he was serving as a vanguard.

"You're so tired of holding a flag, you're so thin that you could be used as a flagpole." Hu Zhuzi, who was in front of him, said angrily, and then he stepped forward and lifted the flagpole, which was more than one foot high. Grabbed it.

"Everyone else is talking nonsense, it has to be our Tiger Pillar. You can't do this, even the old fool!" Qian Chuan'er hurriedly praised Tiger Pillar, while scolding the soldier just now, and "Step on" "Kicked the old fool.

In fact, whether he scolded the soldier or "stepped on" the big old fool, it was all nonsense. Wasn't his real purpose to make Hu Zhuzi happy?

Sure enough, when Hu Zhuzi heard Qian Chuan'er say that even the old fools couldn't compare to him, he grinned like a gourd. He straightened his chest and straightened his arms, raising the flag high.

The apricot-yellow flag was flying. Although it looked like an ancient marching and fighting flag, it was exceptionally bright after all.

The purpose of raising the flag is not to see the people's reaction, that is the purpose, and the money will run forward.

"Are you going to Gaha?" Shang Zhen asked.

"I'll go to the front to see how the people react when they know our Third Battalion is back." Qian Chuan'er replied.

"Wait a minute, change into casual clothes, and I'll go too." Shang Zhen said.

Since the Japanese army launched the "Suppression" campaign, Shang Zhen has not returned to the guerrilla zone for a long time. He also wants to know what the people here think of his camp.

After a while, Shang Zhen and Qian Chuan'er changed into common people's clothes and went forward.

After only walking for a while, they caught up with the leading soldiers in front.

"Hey, what are you two doing?" Bian Xiaolong, who was with Big Laoban, asked curiously.

At this time, Bian Xiaolong was dressed as a male soldier. His hair was cut short and held down by a military cap, but his face was clean, showing a bit of a woman's delicacy.

And I don’t know when she added red tassel to the handle of her box cannon, because he is a woman and is originally petite. He is also dressed like a soldier, which always gives people a heroic feeling.

According to what the veterans said behind the scenes, Bian Xiaolong now knows that she is stinky and is afraid that the big old fool will not want her!

The veterans said this, of course, because Bian Xiaolong was too petite. Well, well, petite was fine, but her characteristics as a woman were not very obvious.

But not only can veterans not say this in public, but they can only understand it behind their backs, because when Bian Xiaolong looks anxious, he looks like a little female leopard with bared teeth, and no one dares to mess with her! What's more, there is an elephant standing behind Bian Xiaolong!

"Let's go to the front and take a look. You go as usual. Don't point your gun at ordinary people and scare them again." Shang Zhen ordered.

However, Shang Zhen surpassed the top soldiers and walked only a few steps before turning back and saying, "Big fool, go back to the back and take turns holding the flag with Hu Zhuzi."

Only then did Bian Xiaolong notice that the brigade behind him actually raised a flag, and asked curiously: "Why is it yellow? Do we want to do justice for heaven?"

Qian Chuan'er read Journey to the West. He put up the flag, thinking it was the Monkey King's sign, but Bian Xiaolong, who had traveled through rivers and lakes, thought of Liangshan.
