After lunch at the militia headquarters, Deng Chenggong and his group rode straight to Ranzhuang. When they arrived at the outskirts of Ranzhuang Village, they saw several young children from afar. After staring at them and carefully observing, they quickly put down two small trees on the high ground at the entrance of the village. This kind of news tree was also thought of by Deng Chenggong and promoted in the base area. Considering that this kind of watch-keeping method is only suitable for daytime implementation, this work is left to the children's league members who have nothing to do on weekdays. After all, the children are idle during the day, and let them be responsible for keeping watch-keeping and can make the best use of it.

When the two small trees were put down, the child in charge of keeping watch jumped onto the village road with great courage and shouted: "Who are you? Why are you here in our village? What do you want to do?"

Uh! He is quite alert!

Deng Chenggong smiled and said, "Captain Zhao, it seems that the militia training in this village is doing well, but with you, the serious Ranzhuang native here, are these children still stopping us?"

Zhao Changbao smiled embarrassedly and said, "Because I worked in Xingtai a few years ago, I only took charge of the excavation work in the village when I came back this time. So some children as old as him in the village don't know me. However, I know this child in front of me. If I remember correctly, the boy's father is Zhou Dameng, the militia captain of this village."

After saying that, Zhao Changbao, who dismounted, walked to the child and said, "Erwazi, you kid don't know me anymore. When I was drinking with your father a few days ago, you kid secretly stood by and secretly stole the wine. Now you don't know me anymore? By the way, where is your dad?"

Erwazi stared at Zhao Changbao and looked up and down before whispering: "You were riding on the horse just now, how could I know it was you? However, my father said that even if you know someone, you should be careful. You should not put it in the village at will. Otherwise, you can't wait for my dad to come in before he can get in, otherwise I can't let you in secret. Otherwise, if my dad knows, he will be slapped me again."

It seems that the child is only thirteen or fourteen years old. Perhaps because of malnutrition, it seems that it is about the same height as a child in the next generation who is about ten years old. However, the child's alertness made Deng Chenggong very happy. It seems that it is not unreasonable that Ran Zhuang became the core battlefield of tunnel warfare in later generations.

Just as Zhao Changbao was about to scold him, Deng Chenggong walked up with a smile and took out a few pieces of milk candy from his body and said, "You are doing very well. Your father is right. Even if you know someone, you must check it out before you can let them in. These pieces of candy are treated as my reward for you. I will continue to do this next time. I am very optimistic about you!"

To everyone's surprise, although Erwazi was a little jealous of these pieces of milk candy, he suddenly said vigilantly: "Who are you? Why do you give me something to eat? Do you think I'll let you into the village if you give me candy and tell you that it's impossible. If you dare to forcibly break into the village, our children's group partners will definitely report to my father and others, and then you will wait for them to clean up you."

Uh! He kindly gave a few candy a few pieces of candy for such a scolding, and was scolded by a young man who was older. Deng Chenggong also felt a little hot. Just as Qin Ming and others suppressed their laughter, a team of militiamen carrying rifles at the entrance of the village walked over quickly. When a middle-aged man in the leadership was stunned for a moment when he saw Deng Chenggong's appearance, he quickly ran over and said, "Report Commander, Commander Zhao, and Captain of the Ranzhuang Militia Squad, Zhou Ermeng led ten village members of the militia to report, and ask the commander to instruct."

Commander!

This title scared the militia behind him, especially the second baby who scolded Deng Chenggong just now, who was shocked. Looking at Deng Chenggong's eyes, they became a little dodged.

The reason why Zhou Ermeng knew Deng Chenggong was mainly because he had participated in the officer training in Yinlong Valley. At that time, Deng Chenggong had conducted a series of combat training for these grassroots militia captains. Therefore, when he saw that Deng Chenggong, who was standing in front of his son, Zhou Ermeng felt a little sudden, but he quickly calmed down and reported to Deng Chenggong.

Deng Chenggong nodded with a smile and said, "Captain Zhou, it seems that the militia work in your village is doing well. I heard from Commander Zhao that this kid is your kid?"

Zhou Ermeng, who had just been praised before he was happy, suddenly heard Deng Chenggong focus on his son. Thinking of his son's lawless character, he said worriedly: "Commander, this kid is my child. Is this kid unfair in front of you again?"

Seeing that Zhou Ermeng was about to reach out to beat someone, Deng Chenggong hurried forward and pulled him, "What are you doing? What I want to say is that your son is very amazing. He has such great courage at a young age and will definitely become a great man in the future. By the way, what is your son's name?"

Seeing that his commander was praising his son, Zhou Ermeng grinned again and said, "Because this kid is the only one in my family, I specially asked the scholar in the village to give it a name, Weiguo!"

Zhou Weiguo!

Uh! This name is very familiar. It seems that before I traveled through time, there was a TV series about the special forces during the War of Resistance Against Japan, and its commander seemed to be the same name.

Therefore, Deng Chenggong walked in front of the child and said, "Zhou Weiguo, don't worry, with me here, your dad dare not beat you. Since you don't want candy, I still want to reward you. Tell me boldly, what do you want?"

When he heard that the young commander who was often banned by his father wanted to reward himself, he thought about it and was about to speak, Zhou Weiguo saw his father's obvious threatening eyes. However, when Deng Chenggong turned around and glared, his powerful father did not dare to continue to say anything. It seemed that the commander in front of him was indeed very serious.

After thinking for a long time, Zhou Weiguo said cautiously: "Commander, can I want a pistol?"

Since Zhao Changbao and Fan Wen, the two county militia leaders, often went to Ranzhuang to guide the excavation work of the tunnel, Zhou Weiguo, with a good look, found that both of his fathers had to please the big official and put a pistol on his waist that his father did not have. Later, when he learned that only the big official could carry this pistol, he always wanted to have a pistol. Now the commander asked him what he wanted, so he naturally told the request without saying a word.

Deng Chenggong, who was also stunned by Zhou Weiguo's request, said angrily before he could speak, Zhou Ermeng, who stood beside him, said angrily: "You kid really don't know that the sky is high and the earth is thick. Is this pistol possible? Didn't you see if you are using a rifle now? Could it be that you kid want to ride on my head? I think you kid is itchy and deserves a beating?"

A series of angry curses made Deng Chenggong laugh and cry, and once again stopped Zhou Er and said fiercely: "Okay, Captain Zhou, since I promised to ask your son to make a request, I will definitely do what I say. You don't need this, isn't it just a pistol? I'll give it to you, but Zhou Weiguo, I want to ask, why do you want a pistol?"

Zhou Weiguo also said naively: "Because my dad said that pistols can only be used by officers who are high-ranking officials. I think I have a pistol, and I am also a high-ranking official. From now on, my dad dares not hit me at will."

Uh! This reason is very powerful!

Deng Chenggong and others, who were amused by Zhou Weiguo's words, also held back the smile in their hearts when they saw Zhou Erming's expression of aggravation.

'I can give you one pistol, but what I want to tell you is that pistols are used to protect relatives and the people. They are not used to bully your dad. I will not only send you a pistol, but also a pistol to your dad. In this way, you will still listen to your dad in the future. When you grow up, you can protect the people in the village and fight against the invaders like your dad. Do you understand?'

Deng Chenggong, who said this, saw Zhou Weiguo nodding with some understanding, pulled out a Browning pistol that he had found from Guyuan's house and handed it over and said, "I will give this pistol to you from today. I hope you can use this pistol to become a true hero to defend the country. These are thirty bullets, and this kind of bullet is relatively rare, so you should cherish the bullets and don't waste them casually. Do you know?"

Looking at the beautiful pistol in my hand, as well as my father and the soldiers' eyes that were a little jealous, although I didn't know what brand of the gun was.

But Zhou Weiguo nodded happily and said, "Thank you, Commander, I remember!"

Perhaps Zhou Weiguo is not sure about the value of this pistol because of his age, but how could Zhao Changbao and Zhou Ermeng, who were standing beside him, could not recognize this pistol? In today's era, not to mention militia officers like them, I believe that the officers of regular army are also jealous. After all, this pistol is not only exquisitely crafted, but also has small and accurate characteristics, but is also sought after by some officers. Sometimes even if you are rich, you may not be able to buy it!

He sent out a pistol he had with him, and Deng Chenggong took a twenty-shot mirror box from Qin Ming and said, "Captain Zhou, I will give this mirror box to you today. In the same sentence, I hope you can cherish this pistol and use it to protect the country and resist invasion. As for your son's pistol, you should not confiscate it. I will leave it to him for use from today. I don't think he will do anything randomly. However, if you have time, you can teach him how to shoot, otherwise you won't use a pistol. Do you understand?"

Seeing that he could have a mirror box that could be equipped with at least the level of a battalion commander, Zhou Ermeng was not jealous of the small pistol in his son's hand. For a middle-aged man like him, the mirror box with a 20 round capacity was undoubtedly more impactful.

He took the pistol carefully and said, "Don't worry, Commander, I will definitely use this pistol to fight well and not let anyone bully our people."

This gun delivery incident that occurred at the entrance of the village was later spread by Zhao Changbao and others. The Zhou family and his son were also famous in the militia column. Until the liberation of the country, these two pistols became the heirloom of the Zhou family. Zhou Weiguo also joined the army with this pistol. After liberation, he participated in the battle to defend the country and eventually grew into a three-star general who came out of the War of Resistance. Later, people noticed in his memoirs that it was because of Deng Chenggong's gift of gun that he had set his heart for the ideal of defending the country. This Browning pistol also accompanied Zhou Weiguo to fight south and north, which was considered to have achieved many military achievements.
