Chapter 142 Catching Pigs
The incident with Hou Kanshan just passed like that.
For Shang Zhen and other guerrillas, Hou Kanshan had just become a common topic of conversation. Although some people would bring up the idea of beating him up someday when they thought of Hou Kanshan, no matter who proposed it or who agreed to it, they all seemed to have forgotten about it after waking up the next day.
In the final analysis, Hou Kanshan did not do anything wrong. As the saying goes, even if others are unkind, we cannot be unjust.
More than ten days passed in a blink of an eye, and Shang Zhen was still exercising in the woods.
Now he increasingly appreciates the benefits of the horse stance taught to him by Old Huo, and his whole spirit and energy are completely different from the original sticky person.
Shang Zhen, who was doing horse stance, wondered when he could shoot and see if his marksmanship had improved. At this moment, he heard the howling of pigs coming from the direction of the pig house.
Hmm? Shang Zhen was stunned for a moment, then he quickly stopped his horse and ran a few steps forward. He climbed onto the branch of a large tree and looked towards the pigpen. At this time, he saw two more carriages in front of the pigpen.
Isn't that Wang Qingfeng here to catch pigs? Shang Zhen thought, "It's only a month until the Chinese New Year," so he finally picked up his flower machine and walked back.
When Shang Zhen returned to the pigsty, he found that his guess was correct. The pigs raised by his group had been tied up by their hooves and thrown onto the carriage.
There were not two but four horse-drawn carriages pulling the pigs, and Wang Qingfeng, dressed in an officer's uniform, was shouting and commanding them.
In addition to the dozen or so soldiers in his group, there were also twenty or so soldiers brought by Wang Qingfeng.
Seeing Shang Zhen coming back, Wang Laomao and the others didn't show any reaction, and their faces didn't show whether they were happy or not.
After all, they have been taken in by the 626th Regiment now, so isn't it normal for them to raise pigs for others and help catch them at the end of the year?
"You have to leave at least one for us. We've been raising pigs for a year." Qian Chuaner, who was standing next to Shang Zhen, began to complain.
"I should leave one for you? Qian Chuanzi, let me ask you, why are the tails of those pigs gone?" Wang Qingfeng asked after hearing Qian Chuaner's complaint.
"The weather is too cold, he must have frozen to death!" Qian Chuaner said seriously.
As Qian Chuan'er answered, smiles appeared on the faces of the soldiers who followed Wang Qingfeng.
In the extremely cold Northeast China, if the temperature is extremely low when the piglets are still small, their tails may actually freeze and fall off.
But some of the soldiers who had come with Wang Qingfeng had seen it. The pig's tail was still intact. Who had ever seen a grown pig's tail frozen off? They knew without even asking that the boys had chopped it off with knives and used it as a snack!
Wang Qingfeng looked at Qian Chuan'er meaningfully, but Qian Chuan'er remained serious.
In fact, the relationship between the two parties is well known.
The attitude of Shang Zhen and his group is clearly that they are like a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water.
You, Wang Qingfeng, can do whatever you want to us, but I'm sure you don't dare to do anything to us.
Wang Qingfeng was very passive in abandoning the wounded soldier, while Shang Zhen and others rescued the wounded soldier, although he died later.
People need dignity and trees need bark. Wang Qingfeng really didn't dare to do anything to Shang Zhen and the others.
Moreover, Shang Zhen and his companions had also inquired indirectly. Although Wang Qingfeng's brother-in-law, the commander of the 626th Regiment of the Suizhou Garrison, was more accommodating to his brother-in-law, he still had a good reputation among the soldiers and would never make things difficult for them because of such a small matter.
"Okay, let's do this. You all follow me. These pigs are not enough for our family to celebrate the New Year. We need to go to the countryside to buy a few more." Sure enough, in the end, Wang Qingfeng did not worry about where the pig's tails went, but issued a new order.
However, Wang Qingfeng and his men had already started to leave, but Shang Zhen and his men had not moved yet.
"What's the matter? I, a captain, can't order you around, right?" Wang Qingfeng looked at Shang Zhen and the others and said.
"Captain Wang, it's not that you can't order us around, but that I can't order them around." Qian Chuan'er always answered Wang Qingfeng's questions in a timely manner.
Shang Zhen had no time to deal with Wang Qingfeng, and Wang Laomao was too disdainful to deal with Wang Qingfeng. The reason why Qian Chuan'er always came to receive Wang Qingfeng was because Qian Chuan'er was eloquent and seemed to respect Wang Qingfeng.
"I knew you couldn't make the decision." Wang Qingfeng sneered, then pointed at Shang Zhen and said, "You, say something! Are you going or not? And why are you carrying a gun?"
Just these words from Wang Qingfeng must have made most people like Wang Laomao and Qian Chuaner feel moved. There was something else behind Wang Qingfeng's words!
Did he actually know that Shang Zhen was the leader of his gang? Then another name popped up in their minds, that was Hou Kanshan.
Shang Zhen was also surprised by Wang Qingfeng's question, but before he could reply, Qin Chuan interrupted and said, "He carries a gun because he's afraid he'll get injured too."
Qin Chuan's words immediately made Wang Qingfeng's face drop, and the expressions of those soldiers who followed Wang Qingfeng also changed.
Qin Chuan's words were irrelevant, but they were powerful! They were even more powerful than fertilizing crops!
Seeing that Wang Qingfeng's expression was not right, Shang Zhen finally said, "Take your guns and follow us!"
After that, no one said anything. Wang Laomao, Qin Chuan and the others really went back into the house, took their guns and walked out.
In fact, Shang Zhen’s approach of asking everyone to carry guns is undoubtedly correct.
Their piggery was originally located in the northeast of Suizhong County. In other words, what was this place? This was the front line against the Japanese army.
Although there is currently no sign that the Japanese army will take action here, who knows when the Japanese army will launch a large-scale invasion?
"So you really are the leader?" When Shang Zhen followed Wang Qingfeng and the others forward, a soldier whispered from behind.
"We are all leaders in this group. Some of us are leaders in raising pigs, I am the leader in charge of fighting, and we also have a leader in charge of marrying wives." Shang Zhen said meaningfully.
Of course, the soldier came with Wang Qingfeng. He didn't expect Shang Zhen to answer him like this. He didn't know whether he understood the hidden meaning in Shang Zhen's words, and then he burst into laughter.
But at this moment Shang Zhen felt something was wrong, because the village that Wang Qingfeng took them to was the village where they secretly raised pigs!
At this time, Wang Laomao and Qian Chuan'er also felt that something was wrong. They exchanged glances with each other, but what could they do now?
They didn't know whether Wang Qingfeng knew that they were secretly raising pigs in this village, or whether she really came to this village to buy pigs. Now they could only take things one step at a time.
But the subsequent development of events proved that their premonition was correct, and trouble was coming!
It was because the family that Wang Qingfeng took them to to buy pigs was the same family that they entrusted the local people to raise pigs!
It was around ten o'clock in the morning, and dozens of Northeast Army soldiers had suddenly arrived in the village. How could the people in the village not know about it?
Just when Shang Zhen and his men were thinking about how to deal with the situation, the common people from the family they entrusted came out to greet them.
"Brother Wang, are you here to catch pigs? It's New Year's, and it's time for you to eat some delicious fruits!" He was a middle-aged man in his forties, a little older than Wang Laomao.
Wang Qingfeng, who was standing next to him, saw the malicious smile on Wang Laomao's face. At this moment, Wang Laomao wanted to wink at his brother Wang, who had the same surname as him, but it was too late!
