Because of the arrival of Ganfan Wang Linxiong, Chen Weidong's team, which was not rich to begin with, became even worse. The food supplies seized from the ambush on the Japanese transport team were being consumed at a visible rate.
Lin Xiong had a big appetite and a strong body. Therefore, he was nicknamed " Giant Bear " by the soldiers in the first row.
Several times, Deputy Platoon Leader Liao Wenhua and First Platoon Leader Yang Laojiu had suggested to Chen Weidong that their platoon was not well-off and couldn't stand the torture of the giant bear. If this went on, they would be eaten by the giant bear before the Japanese troops could come and wipe them out. Then, the entire platoon would starve to death on the yellow soil in the northwest of Shanxi.
Chen Weidong's position on the issue of the giant bear's fate would not be shaken by anyone.
"As long as I, Chen Weidong, am still the platoon leader of the first platoon, the giant bear must stay in the first platoon. What are brothers? Brothers share happiness and hardship together, eat meat together, and drink wine together. At worst, all the brothers in the platoon will go and dig wild vegetables and peel the bark. I don't believe that all forty people in the platoon can't feed a giant forest bear!”
This was Chen Weidong's original words at the meeting of all the platoon members. It was also because of this sentence that Giant Bear was moved to tears and made up his mind to follow Platoon Leader Chen for the rest of his life.
Uh, I don't have any requirements. I just need to take care of my meals.
Although Lin Xiong ate a lot, he was also a good fighter. He carried a 60-kilogram mortar on his body for 30 kilometers without panting. When he threw grenades, he easily covered 130 to 140 meters. The key was that the landing point was accurate. It was not much different from a grenade launcher. People gave him the nickname "Human Mortar"!
As for close combat, he was even more invincible. Seven or eight veterans who had been in the army for more than five years could not get close to him. Even Chen Weidong, who had been trained in the Hunter School of Argentina, could only fight the giant bear to a draw within a hundred moves. If he continued to fight, he would probably be killed by the giant bear in terms of physical strength and endurance.
How could such a decathlon warrior be transferred away just because he had too much to do? This was not Chen Weidong's style. Such a soldier was a natural-born special force soldier. In the future battlefield, he would be able to display infinite potential and turn the tide of the battle on his own.
On this day, Lin Xiong was lying on his side on the brick bed in the barracks, staring at the ceiling in a daze. Yang Laojiu, the first squad leader who lived in the same room as him, heard the rumbling sound from Lin Xiong's stomach and knew that this kid was not full. He smiled and teased,
"Giant bear, what are you doing? Why don't you lie flat and sleep? It's not good for your body to sleep on your side.”
Lin Xiong stared at the ceiling with his lifeless eyes and said weakly,""Old Ninth Yang, what do you know? There's no food in my stomach. If I lie down, my stomach will cave in, making me feel even more hungry. If I sleep on my side, this won't happen. Compared to starving, I'd rather suppress my heart.”
Lin Xiong swallowed his saliva and continued,""But it can starve people to death!"
"Hahaha, Giant Bear, you want to kill me with laughter!”
On the other side of the brick bed, Yang Laojiu was rolling around on the brick bed with laughter. He could not close his mouth."In the words of the Guild Leader, you are really a genius, hahaha!”
"Lin Xiong!"
At this moment, the door was pushed open by Chen Weidong from the outside. He strode into the room and said to Lin Xiong, who was lying on the bed,""Hurry up and get up. I'll take you to eat.”
"Dinner?"
When he heard the word " eat," Lin Xiong, who was lying on the brick bed, suddenly lit up. He burst out with agility that did not match his clumsy body. He rolled up from the brick bed and quickly tidied up his military uniform. He smiled foolishly and said,"Platoon leader, where are we going to eat?”
"County!"
As he spoke, Chen Weidong threw the bag in his hand to Lin Xiong.""Change into casual clothes. I'll take you to the county town for a big meal!”
On the other side, Yang Laojiu also got up from the brick bed and looked at Chen Weidong with eager eyes.""Platoon leader, I want to go too."
Hearing that, Chen Weidong's eyes widened.""What are you going to do? Go tell the devils in the county town about your romantic love story with the village flower Xiuzhi? Old Ninth Yang, listen up. If you dare to talk nonsense and make up jokes during the training of the militia of the Women's Rescue Association again, I will find a gelding craftsman to cut off your thing and feed it to the dogs.”
Facing Chen Weidong's fierce gaze, Yang Laojiu was so scared that he subconsciously shrank back. He explained in a low voice with a bitter expression," Platoon Leader, it's not my fault. It's those women from the Women's Rescue Association."
Old Ninth Yang swallowed the rest of his words.
He realized that Chen Weidong had taken out the two butcher knives at some point in time, and the giant bear, who was eager to see the world in chaos, was also looking at him with ill intentions.
In the evening, two young men in black silk gowns, top hats, white socks, and multi-layer cloth shoes appeared in front of Xianghe Teahouse on the central street of Heyuan County in the north of Shanxi Province.
One of them was elegant, while the other was tall and mighty. They had bulging weapons at their waists. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that they were dressed as members of the county's Japanese government's investigation team.
The Xianghe Teahouse in front of them was the largest and most luxurious restaurant in Heyuan County.
At the entrance of the teahouse, there was a red banner with black words on it. It read," Military Police Commander Takada's Birthday Banquet!"
Even though he had changed into the uniform of the investigation team, it could not hide the strong rustic aura on Lin Xiong. The clothes that were a few sizes smaller looked a little out of place on him.
Lin Xiong looked at the Japanese soldiers and traitors coming in and out of the teahouse, then turned to look at the platoon leader Chen Weidong beside him. He said in disbelief,""Platoon leader, you said you would bring me to the county town for dinner.”
" Yes," Chen Weidong said lightly." Today, the Japanese are celebrating their birthday. They're holding a big banquet for guests. There's enough wine and meat, and steamed buns with white flour."”
As he spoke, Chen Weidong cupped his hands at a few people who were dressed like squires, and the latter returned the greeting.
"Giant Bear, do you dare to dine and dash with me under the nose of the Japanese?”
