On the morning of May 5, 1943, the streets of Guzhai Township, Huaiyin County.
At this moment, Zhang Lingwen, the former head of the Guzhai Production Service Cooperative who was disguised as a vendor from the village and streets, was walking on the streets of Guzhai Township, and the noise coming from behind him made him feel panicked.
I came here this time to settle the cooperative's accounts with the local people. Because there are Japanese and puppet troops stationed in Guzhai Township, Zhang Lingwen came here quietly before dawn and left quietly after he was about to finish his work.
However, Zhang Lingwen did not expect that shortly after he stepped into Guzhai Township, a traitor quickly reported the news of his arrival to the Japanese army in the stronghold.
The New Fourth Army has sneaked into Guzhai Township!
After hearing the news, all the Japanese and puppet soldiers in the stronghold immediately dispatched to block all the exits and important roads of the entire Guzhai Township. Then, the enemy troops began to search and investigate from door to door.
For a moment, the entire ancient village village was in chaos.
Zhang Lingwen took to the streets and looked at the people who were evading in a hurry and the Japanese and puppet soldiers who were smashing their doors. Although he was anxious, he had no choice.
There is no reliable fortress here, and according to the enemy's spirit of "digging three feet into the ground, you must find this person", this time, if you want to rely on the cover of the masses to avoid it, the hope of success is relatively slim. What to do if
?
Zhang Lingwen was a little confused for a moment. All the vendors at the intersection of the street closed their stalls to hide. At this time, the pedestrians at the intersection of the street began to become rare, and the few people left on the street had begun to attract the attention of several puppet soldiers not far away.
When Zhang Lingwen was at a loss, a man suddenly grabbed his sleeve and then asked in a low voice:
"Comrade Zhang, why are you here?"
Zhang Lingwen saw that it was Zou Guangren, a villager from Guzhai Village, Guzhai Township. When the New Fourth Army was stationed in Guzhai, everyone was familiar with each other. This person was kind-hearted in the ancient road and was very supportive of the New Fourth Army's anti-Japanese activities.
"Old Zou, the enemy surrounds here. Now I'm arresting me everywhere. You have to help me think of a solution." When Zhang Lingwen saw Zou Guangren at this time, a gloss suddenly flashed in his originally dark and desperate heart.
Zou Guangren thought for a moment, then pulled Zhang Lingwen up and whispered:
"Come with me, let's go to the home of the self-defense leader in the pseudo-district."
Zhang Lingwen was a little confused when he heard this. Can we go to the home of the self-defense leader? The other party was arresting me everywhere, but I went to his place instead. Isn’t this a self-investigation?
Zou Guangren saw Zhang Lingwen's steps a little hesitant, so he walked and explained to him:
"Don't worry, there is no problem going to his place to insurance. Zhu Yinhe, the leader of this self-defense regiment, lives not far from my in-laws. I am more familiar with his family. He only has the couple at home, and Zhu Yinhe goes out every morning and only goes home at night. His wife is a card fan. He goes to his neighbor's house to watch cards all day long. When people go out during the day, the door is not locked. But it is true that he is the leader of the self-defense regiment. He is also a card leader. He goes out all day long. , the guy who was holding a gun to eat, who dared to steal something from his house because of the courage to steal something? "
Zou Guangren continued:
"Now the whole village is searching and arresting you. Only by hiding in Zhu Yinhe's house can we avoid the search of the Japanese and puppet troops. No one will go to investigate or dare to investigate."
While the two of them were talking, they had already arrived at the gate of Zhu Yinhe's courtyard. Just as Zou Guangren described, the iron lacquer gate of Zhu Yinhe's house was closed at this moment, and a small crack was flashed.
Zou Guangren gently pushed open the yard door, leaned in and looked carefully, and after confirming that there was no one, he waved back and led Zhang Lingwen in, and then covered the door with his backhand.
The two entered Zhu Yinhe's home, then quietly went up along the wooden ladder on the second floor, and hid in each other's attic. This attic is where Zhu Yinhe places miscellaneous items, and the items inside are placed in messy ways, looking like they have not been sorted out for a long time.
Fortunately, there is a small window on it, you can check the situation outside through the window.
On the same day, the entire Guzhai Township was martial law by the Japanese and puppet troops, and the enemy searched door to door. During this period, he also passed by Zhu Yinhe's courtyard gate, but no one had the courage to break in and search his boss's courtyard.
is like this. The search lasted until the evening that day, and there was no result in it. The Japanese and puppet soldiers couldn't think of it even if they wanted to break their heads. They were clearly blocked in time and searched thoroughly, but they could not find any trace of the other party.
Could it be that the new Fourth Army has flew with its wings? In the end, the enemy army, who had been busy for a long time, had to give up. That night, Zhu Yinhe returned home and got angry in depression. However, he didn't know that the New Fourth Army he wanted to capture was now hiding safely in the attic.
It was not until the next morning that he saw Zhu Yinhe's wife going out again through the window. Zhang Lingwen and Zou Guangren got off the attic and walked out quietly.
Then, Zhang Lingwen said goodbye to Zou Guangren and returned to the New Fourth Army's garrison smoothly and safely.
