There was no noise in the forest except for the slight rubbing sound of snowflakes falling on the trees. It began to snow at noon.
Below: It was a light snow, which collected a layer of moss-like ice on the branches and spread a silver-like thin layer on the fallen leaves.
The clothes scattered on the road turned into white, soft and broad carpets, which aggravated the sinking of the endless Jyukai.
Silent weather.
Outside the house where the policeman guarding the forest lives, a young woman with bare arms is cutting a stone with an axe.
Chop wood. She is slim and strong, and she is a real woman who grew up in the forest. Her father and husband are in the forest.
Police.
There is a man in the house shouting:
"Tonight we only have two people, Belding, you should come in and watch it get dark, probably some prue.
Scholars and some wolves are playing tricks on their neighbors. "
The woman chopping wood is chopping the roots of the tree very hard. Every time she chopped it, she stood up and raised her hand again.
Split, at that time she answered while chopping wood:
"I'm finished, mom. I'm coming, I'm coming, don't be afraid, it's not dark yet. "
Then she moved into large and small firewood blocks and piled them up along the fireplace. Then run outside and close the window and close it there.
Some thick and wide wooden windows made of elm seeds finally came in and fastened strong bolts on the doors.
Her mother, a wrinkled and timid old woman, quickly went to the fire and said:
"I really don't want your father to go outside. What's the use of two women? "
The young woman replied:
"Not necessarily! I can kill a wolf or a Prussian. "
So she looked up at a big pistol hanging on the fireplace.
Her husband joined the army at the beginning of the Prussian invasion, and now their mother and daughter live alone with their parents, which
Parents are Nikolai Bilon, an old policeman nicknamed stilts. He used to stubbornly refuse to leave his residence and move to the city.
The nearest city is Ledur, a fortress built on rocks in the past. People there love their motherland and are rich.
The producers have long decided to resist the invading enemy, to close the door and to defend themselves, and to accept parcels according to local traditional habits.
Wai. There have been two times before. In the era of Henry IV and Louis XIV, the residents of Ledur were all British.
Known for being brave in self-defense. Of course they will do the same this time! Otherwise, I'd rather die together in the whole city.
So, they bought some guns, equipped with a group of militia, divided into battalions and companies, and exercised in the martial arts field every day.
Practice, all, baker, grocer, butcher, accountant, lawyer, carpenter, driver.
Bookstores and pharmacists take turns practicing at the specified time. The conductor is Mr Le Ye Wei, who used to be a dragoon.
I used to be a sergeant in the team, and now I have opened a grocery store, married the daughter of Mr. Da Le Tang Fu, and inherited his small shop.
Le Ye Wei claimed to be the commander of the Yugoslav capital, and the local young people had joined the army, so he left the rest to resist.
The following people form a team. In order to lose weight and increase lung capacity, fat people have to walk in the street with gymnastics steps. body
People who are weak will walk with a lot of heavy things on their backs in order to exercise their bones and muscles.
Later, everyone was waiting for the Prussians. But the Prussians did not show up. They are not far away; Because they
Our scouts have been through the forest twice until they come to the house where Bi Rong stands on stilts to guard the forest.
This old policeman who can run like a fox has informed the city. They aimed at the firing line of the cannon, but the enemy
People didn't show up.
The house on stilts became an outpost in the forest of Avelin. In order to buy food, the old people also want to destroy the countryside.
Pay the interest to the bourgeoisie in the city and go to town twice a week.
On this day, he went to the city to deliver the message again, because it was about two o'clock in the afternoon. There are several German steps.
The soldiers of the squad rested in his house and then left in a short time. The sergeant who leads the team can speak French.
Whenever he goes to town like this, he always leads his two big mouths to hunt dogs and guard against the forest.
Wolves, because wolves have become particularly fierce this season. When he leaves, he always tells his wife and daughter to close the door as soon as it gets dark.
Do not go out at home.
His daughter is not afraid of anything, but his wife is always trembling and repeatedly says:
"There will be no good end in the future, all this; You will see no good end in the future. "
That night, she was more anxious than usual.
"Do you know when your father will come back?" She said.
"oh! After eleven, for sure. His old man always comes back late for dinner at the commander's place.
Yes "
So she hung the pot on the fire to cook soup. When she stopped, she listened for a while from the chimney pipe.
A vague voice in her ear.
She murmured:
"Someone is walking in the Woods, at least seven or eight people."
The old woman got scared and stopped spinning. She stammered:
"alas! God, your father is not here! "
Before she finished, a violent knock on the door made their door tremble.
Mother and daughter two people didn't answer, at that time, a fierce blunt accent shouted:
"Open the door!"
Then, after a short silence, the same accent shouted again:
"Open the door, or I'll slam the door!"
So Belding knew it was a German accent to speak French, so he hid the pistol on the fireplace.
Skirt pocket, and then she went over and put her ear on the door and asked:
"Who are you?"
The voice replied:
"We are the team that came that day."
The young woman then asked:
"What do you want?"
"Since this morning, my team and I have lost our way in the forest. Open the door, or I'll break in.
It ... "
She had no choice at this juncture, so she quickly pulled open the thick iron latch and opened the thick wooden door.
I saw six people in the hazy snow, six Prussians, who came the day before yesterday. She asked in a firm tone:
"What are you doing here at this time?"
The sergeant repeated in the same accent:
"I'm lost, completely lost, and I know this house. I have not eaten since this morning. I
So is detachment. "
Belding loudly said:
"Only my mother and I are at home tonight."
The soldier who looks like an upright man replied:
"It doesn't matter, I won't do anything bad. But you have to get us something to eat. We are all tired and hungry.
I can't take it anymore. "
She immediately stepped back:
"Please come in!" She said.
They came in, covered in snow, and piled a pagoda-shaped cheesecake on their iron helmets. They all
You look tired.
The young woman pointed to the wooden benches on both sides of the big table and said to them:
"Please sit down! I'll make you some soup. You look really tired. "
Then she bolted the door again.
She added water, some cream and some potatoes to the pot, and then took off the fat meat hanging on the stove.
Bacon, cut in half and throw it into the soup.
The six men looked at all these movements, their eyes burning with hunger. They put guns and helmets in the corner.
Yes, it's as quiet as many children sitting on a bench in the lecture hall now.
Mother continued spinning, glancing nervously at the invading soldiers from time to time. At this point, they are in addition to
Nothing can be heard except the gentle rotation of the spinning wheel, the crack of firewood and the faint sound of water in the pot.
But suddenly, a strange sound surprised them all. It's like a sound coming from under the door.
The sound of blowing in is like dry breathing, and the strong snoring is like the hiss of a beast.
The German sergeant jumped up and walked to the place where the gun was put. The woman who grew up in the forest made a gesture.
Teach him not to move, smiled and said:
"This is a wolf! They walk around like you, hungry. " The credulous man must leave.
Look, so he opened the door at once. At this moment, he saw two big gray beasts jumping away quickly.
He turned and sat down and whispered:
"I really didn't believe it at first."
He waited for the vegetable soup to come out.
They wolfed down vegetable soup. In order to eat more, their mouths were open under their ears and their eyes were turning.
At the same time, the voice in the throat is like the voice of Grulu in the downspout.
Mother and daughter quietly watched the red beards move quickly: all the potatoes in the soup seemed to fall on them.
In active hair.
They were thirsty, so the woman who grew up in the forest went to the cellar to get them some cider. She's on the ground.
Delayed in the cellar for a while; The cellar is a small stone house with a dome. It is said that it used to be a prison, and it was also a prison during the French Revolution.
Through the shelter. There is a narrow spiral ladder inside, which passes through the small hole at the top of the ladder and rises to the ground at the end of the kitchen.
On the surface, this small hole is covered with a thick square board.
When Belding came up, he smiled with a sly air. Then she put the cider in it.
The jar was given to the Germans.
Then she and her mother have dinner at the other end of the kitchen. The soldiers finished eating, so six people gathered around the table.
The child occasionally takes a nap, his head gently touches the table and makes a little noise, and then the person who suddenly wakes up stands up again.
Light beam.
Belding said to the sergeant:
"You go to sleep in front of the fire, needless to say, there is room for six people; As for me, I'm going to my room upstairs.
Go inside.
Finally, the mother and daughter went upstairs. Everyone heard them lock the door, heard them walk for a while, and then there was no more.
There is a little silence.
Prussians lay on the ground, feet next to feet, with their big windbreakers rolled on their heads; Not long after, six articles were released.
Different snores, some loud and some sharp, are continuous and frightening.
Suddenly there was a gunshot. At that time, they really slept for a long time Gunshots are deafening and can teach people to read each other.
The location of the letter gun is just outside the wall of the house. The soldiers all stood up at once. But the gunshots rang twice again, and then again.
Three more times.
The door upstairs suddenly opened and the young woman came downstairs barefoot, wearing only a small shirt and a short skirt, holding it in her hand.
A candlestick is like a struggling air. She took a bite of rice and said:
"French soldiers came, at least two hundred people. If they find you here, they will come and burn down the house.
That kid. Go to the cellar and hide. Don't make any noise. If there is noise, we will all die. "
Sergeant floundered around in French with a German accent replied:
"I'd love to, I'd love to. Where should I go? "
The young woman hurriedly lifted the thick square plate on the small hole, and six people went backwards one by one.
The son tiptoed to explore the foothold on the ladder, went down and finally disappeared from the spiral staircase.
However, after the top of the last iron helmet disappeared, Belding covered with a heavy elm board-this board.
As thick as a wall, as hard as an iron, with a hinge and a lock spring, she turned the lock spring of the prison twice with a key.
Suddenly, she began to laugh. She danced on the heads of these prisoners with crazy desire, quietly.
Laughed happily.
They didn't make a sound. They were locked there, just like in a solid box, in a stone box.
The box only relies on a low transom embedded with a few iron bars to receive outside air.
Belding rekindled her fire, hung the pot on the fire again, and finally stewed some vegetables.
Tony whispered to himself:
"Father must be exhausted tonight."
Then she sat down and waited. Now only the pendulum of the wall clock makes the regular tick in the silent field.
A clicking sound.
The young woman looked at the wall clock from time to time, and the anxiety in her eyes was like saying:
"It's too slow."
But soon she felt someone whispering at her feet. Many deep and vague statements spread all over the earth.
The brick dome of the cellar reached her ears. The Prussians gradually guessed her trick, and soon the sergeant climbed there.
Take a small ladder and raise your fist to hit the cover plate. He shouted in French with a German accent:
"Open the door!"
Belding stood up and walked over to the cover plate, imitating the sergeant's accent and asked:
"What do you want?"
"Open the door!"
"I won't open it!"
The man is angry:
"Open the door, or I'll slam the door!"
She smiled.
"You fight, good boy, you fight, good boy."
So he began to hit the elm cover on his head with the butt of his gun. However, it resisted the impact of the stock.
The woman who grew up in the forest heard him walk down the ladder. Then, the soldiers climbed the ladder one by one.
Hit hard and see how the lid closes. However, there is no doubt that they themselves admit that this attempt is futile.
Force, so they all went down again and began to talk in the cellar.
The young woman listened carefully to their discussion, then she opened the door to the outside and listened to the night.
Her dog barked in the distance. She whistled like a hunter, and then, almost immediately, there were two
A big dog came at her in the dark. She grabbed them by the neck and taught them to stop running. Then she tried to speak loudly.
Call:
"Hey, Dad!"
A voice replied from a distance:
"Hey, Belding!"
She waited a few seconds, and then called:
"Hey, Dad!"
The voice in a closer place to answer again:
"Hey, Belding!"
She went on to call:
"Don't walk through the transom. There are many Prussians in the cellar. "
As a result, the grown-up figure suddenly tilted to the left and stopped between the two trunks. He asked anxiously.
Way:
"Many Prussians are in the cellar. What are they doing? "
The young woman began to laugh:
"Is that a few to the day before yesterday. They got lost in the forest, so I put them in the cellar to enjoy the cool. "
So she talked about this coincidence, how she threatened them with several pistols, and how she put them down to the ground.
In the cellar.
Always serious old man asked:
"What do you want to teach us at this moment?"
She replied:
"You go to Mr Le Ye Wei and his team! He can arrest them and he must be very happy. "
So father Bi Rong smiled.
"Yes, he must be very happy!"
His daughter went on to say:
"I made you a soup. Hurry up and eat before you go! "
The old forest policeman sat in front of the table. He put two pots full of vegetable soup on the ground to feed two dogs, but
Then eat your share.
The Prussians quieted down when they heard someone talking.
Fifteen minutes later, the stilts started again. Belding hands holding the first class. The prisoners are rioting again. at present
Now, they shout, they call people, and they beat the unshakable cover plate with the butt of their guns angrily.
Later, they fired a lot of guns from the air window, undoubtedly hoping that the German squad passing by nearby could gain something.
I heard you.
The woman who grew up in the forest stopped moving, but the sound made her anxious and angry. A fit of anger
Launched in her heart; She almost wanted to kill them so that she wouldn't cause any more trouble.
Later, she became more and more anxious and began to look at the wall clock on the wall and calculate the past time.
Her father has been gone for an hour and a half. Now he has arrived in this city. She seemed to see him: he told Le Wei about it.
Mr. Ye, this one turned pale because of this, so he rang the bell to ask the maid for military uniforms and weapons. He seems to be again
I heard drums everywhere in the street. I saw many frightened heads in the windows everywhere. Those militiamen went from
Gasping, they came out of their respective homes, not dressed yet, fastened their seat belts, and conducted with gymnastics steps.
Go home.
Then, the team lined up, stood on stilts and marched into the forest in the snow at night.
She looked at the clock on the wall again: "One more minute; They can come here. " A nervous anxiety made her heart
I can't take it anymore. For her, every minute seems endless. How slow!
Finally, she thought that the time of their arrival had been pointed out by the needle on the clock, so she opened the door again to listen to the movement and hope.
I saw a shadow walking cautiously there. She was afraid and suddenly let out a cry. Who knows that's her father. he said
Way:
"They sent me to see if the situation has changed."
"No, not at all."
At this time, he also blew a long whistle in the dark. Soon I saw a pile of yellow, yellow and black.
Something black, slowly approaching from under the tree: an outpost composed of ten people.
Stilts repeatedly said:
"Don't pass in front of the transom."
Later, the person who arrived first showed the person who arrived later the disturbing transom.
Finally, the main force of the army is here. One * * * is 200 people, each with 200 bullets.
Le Ye Wei trembled with excitement. He arranged for his brother to surround the house, but he was there.
In front of the transom, the small black hole at the foot of the wall that ventilated the cellar left a large blank area.
Later, he went into the room and asked about the strength and dynamics of the enemy, because the enemy was now silent.
So they can believe that the enemy has disappeared, been destroyed and flew away from the transom.
Mr Le Ye Wei stepped on the cover plate and shouted:
"Prussian officer sir!"
The Germans did not answer.
The commander then called:
"Prussian officer sir!"
It's useless It took him twenty minutes to persuade the silent officer to hand over his ordnance and throwing equipment.
Health, while allowing to maintain their life safety and military honor. However, whether this is an expression of agreement or hatred, he
Didn't get a bunch. Therefore, an impasse has been formed.
The militiamen are stepping on the snow on the ground and hitting their shoulders with their arms as hard as drivers teach themselves to keep warm.
Yes, and everyone is looking at the transom, and the naive idea of running in front of the transom is getting stronger and stronger.
In the militia, there is a man named Jiuguan, who has always been very agile. At this time, he suddenly took a risk, and he made a strong effort like a man.
Run past the air window like a deer. This attempt actually succeeded. The prisoners all seem to be dead.
Someone shouted:
"No one."
Later, another militia passed through the area without being surrounded from the front of this dangerous hole. In this way, it is finished.
Played a game. A person runs from pile to pile from time to time, just like a child swimming.
Play, and his feet are active, so there are many snowflakes jumping with him. Someone burned it to keep warm.
A few piles of dead branches, so the outline of the militiamen running quickly from right to left is obvious.
There is a man calling:
"It's your turn, silly goose."
Goose is the surname of a fat baker, and his big belly caused laughter from his companions.
He hesitated. Someone made fun of him. So he made up his mind and set off with small steps like gymnastics.
Well, that kind of pace is regular, panting and swaying.
The whole team burst into tears. Everyone began to encourage him loudly:
"good! All right! Stupid goose! "
He walked nearly two-thirds of the distance when a long and fast red light flashed out of the transom. Meanwhile.
There was a noise, and then the fat baker fell to the ground with a terrible sound.
No one ran to save him. Later, everyone saw him crawling on the snow with his hands and feet, humming a song.
Finally, he fainted after climbing that terrible distance.
He was hit with hip fat, just at the top of his hip.
After the first accident and the first panic, new laughter broke out.
However, the commander Le Ye Wei appeared at the door of the house. He has just decided his battle plan. At this moment
In a trembling voice under the command:
"Blanche, the owner of the white iron works, and his workmates."
Three men came towards him.
"You have removed all the downpipes in this house."
A quarter of an hour later, they moved a 20-meter-long downpipe to the commander.
So he dug a small round hole next to the cover plate of the cellar with all his strength, and later pumped water from a well.
The machine leads to a waterway leading to this small round hole, and he said happily and loudly:
"We will treat these German gentlemen to a drink!"
A flood of praise "Hula" exploded, followed by shouts and giggles. Then the commander.
Several working groups were organized and the shifts were changed every five minutes. Then he gave the order:
"Pumping!"
So the iron arm of the well pump began to shake, and a slight sound flowed along the downspout.
Soon, there was the sound of spring water flowing in the stream, as well as the sound of some rock springs infested by red fish.
Down the ladder and into the cellar.
The public is waiting.
One o'clock passed, then, two o'clock, then three o'clock.
The angry commander was walking in the kitchen. He put his ear to the ground from time to time, trying to guess what the enemy was doing.
What is it; Secretly ask them if they will surrender soon.
The enemy is now in a state of chaos. Someone heard them knocking on the bucket in the basement, heard them talking, heard them.
They made the water crash.
Later, around eight o'clock in the morning, there was a French sentence with a German accent in the transom:
"I want to talk to a French officer."
Le Ye Wei briefly poked her head out of the window to answer:
"Do you surrender?"
"I surrender."
"Then please send all the guns outside."
So everyone immediately saw a gun sticking out of the transom and immediately fell into the snow, followed by two and three.
Blanche, all the weapons are here. Finally, the voice cried again:
"I didn't. Please hurry, I'm already flooded. "
The commander issued an order:
"Stop pumping."
The crank of the water pump stopped turning.
Finally, he packed the kitchen with militia armed with guns, and he leisurely held the elm cover.
There were four heads, four wet gray Huang Changfa heads. Then everyone saw the six Germans.
One followed the other, all trembling, running all over the ground and panicking.
They were all caught and tied up. Later, because everyone was afraid of any accident, they immediately divided into two teams.
Send; Among the two teams, one is escorting the prisoner, and the other is carrying a stupid mattress on several branches.
Goose.
They all successfully returned to Lederer City.
Mr le Ye Wei won the government medal for capturing a group of Prussian outposts and fat bakers alive.
Because I was injured in front of the enemy, I got a military medal.
Sorry, the Avengers can't be found.
