Lost and Spy

Chapter 2080
Equal treatment in the face of famine, the life of Wei Anchang's family.Looking at the past, I know that the same is not easy.

Like this kind of small spy at the bottom of the military command, who wants money but has no money, has no power and no power, and it is lucky not to be forgotten.

They struggled desperately at the bottom of the society, receiving meager salaries to support their families.

Wei Anchang used to be in Xuzhou.

After the Battle of Xuzhou, he was ordered to return to his hometown, Haofu County, to set up an intelligence station.

He was the only one in the entire intelligence station.

In order to maintain the operation of the intelligence station, he developed his wife and children into peripheral members.

At the beginning of each month, he would walk to Zhoukou to collect his salary, and then walk back.

That salary is really not enough.

Fortunately, he had learned a little knowledge about medicinal materials, so he opened such a small pharmacy.

This has also greatly helped their family financially.

It's just that when the disaster strikes, life is not easy.

The common people are starving to death, how can there be money to see a doctor?

What's more, some fleeing famine were so hungry that they rushed into the pharmacy and stuffed whatever they saw, regardless of whether they could eat it or not.

Wei Anchang saw with his own eyes that two refugees robbed the store of the tonic medicinal materials and swallowed them raw. As a result, they began to bleed from the seven orifices as soon as they left the store, and died after two or three days.

"Sir, you drink tea."

Wei Anchang brought a glass of plain water, but there was no tea in it.

Tea leaves are edible.

As long as you can eat, where will you stay?
The faces of Wei Anchang, his wife and children were swollen, and the nostrils and corners of their eyes were black.

Meng Shaoyuan asked what happened?
Wei Anchang replied with a wry smile:
"This is a toxic reaction caused by eating a wild vegetable called 'mildew flower'. At any rate, I can still find mildew flower. In Ye County next door, I don't even have to eat mildew flower. They are all eating a kind of unusable Dry firewood pounded with a pestle and mortar."

Meng Shaoyuan said "Oh".

"Sir, I really can't hold on any longer." Wei Anchang boldly said, "When will the government start disaster relief? Henan people can't live anymore.

The victims ate dried persimmon leaves, peeled persimmon pedicles, powdered from tribulus terrestris, barley seedlings, bird droppings, and undigested grass seeds, but even these things were about to be eaten. Finished.

Selling children and selling girls is nothing. Now the traffickers don’t want children anymore. What they want are young women, newly married wives, women of fifteen or sixteen years old. "

The more he spoke, the more anxious he became: "Everyone is still struggling now, and the autumn harvest is hopeless. Once winter enters, that will be the end of the Henan people!"

"I know, I know." Meng Shaoyuan said silently: "Wei Anchang, let your family go to rest first. Li Zhifeng, see if we have anything to eat, give them all."

"Yes."

Wei Anchang knew that the officer had something to talk to him alone.

Sent away the family:

"Sir, you drink tea, there is really nothing here to entertain you."

"It's okay, you sit down."

Meng Shaoyuan asked him to sit down: "I won't hide it from you. I came to Henan this time. I have two tasks. One of them is to investigate the disaster situation in Henan. After I go back, I will report directly to the Chairman."

Wei Anchang was overjoyed.

Although I don't know how long it will take from the investigation, to the report, and then to the government's disaster relief, but at least, this has given Henan hope.

"Wei Anchang, when you were in Xuzhou, you devoted yourself to your duties." Meng Shaoyuan suddenly changed the topic: "In the battle of Xuzhou, you came to the front line in person and braved the rain of bullets to guide the artillery targets for the soldiers of the national army.

You were the first to find out that a small group of Japanese troops wanted to sneak attack on the position, and you called the police in time, which gave the defenders enough time to mobilize their forces and repel the Japanese sneak attack. "

Wei Anchang was stunned.

I am just a small spy, how did the officer know these things?
"It stands to reason that it's not too much to award you a medal based on your achievements." Meng Shaoyuan said lightly: "But after the Xuzhou Battle, instead of getting any promotion, you were demoted to Haofu County. Why? what?"

Wei Anchang hesitated for a moment: "It's always bad for the staff department."

"It's not that you are not good at work, but you have other problems." Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "You are suspected of being a trader. Unfortunately, the higher authorities have checked and checked, but they have not found conclusive evidence.

Although there is no evidence, you also know that once this hat is put on, it will be difficult to turn over again.You have military achievements in Xuzhou, but there is no substantive evidence, so your superior simply sent you back to your hometown.

I checked, your direct leader is Zhang Xianying, he is from your hometown, and he usually takes care of you. He sent you back to your hometown and continued to let you work in the military command. If you can get a salary, it can be regarded as helping you. I'm very busy. "

"Yes, without Mr. Zhang, the staff department may really not be able to die well." Wei Anchang also admitted frankly.

"I don't know if you dislike it, and I don't care about it." Meng Shaoyuan continued, "I passed through Haofu County on the way, checked the files before, and found you here, so I came to see you.

You are stationed in Haofu County alone, fighting alone, life is difficult, but you never complain, it is not easy.When I go back, I will see if there is a chance to transfer you to another place. The living conditions are naturally better than here. "

"Thank you for your kindness, sir, but the staff department should stay here." Wei Anchang said calmly: "I have been to big cities, but I am tired. Although Haofu County is small and poor, it is me after all. My hometown, here, I live peacefully."

"Well, everyone has his own aspirations."

Meng Shaoyuan sighed: "I'm leaving tomorrow. I originally wanted to live here tonight, but looking at your place, there is really no place for us to live. I'm bothering you today. This thing should be treated as if you invited me to drink tea." Tea money."

He took out a small yellow croaker from his pocket and put it on the table.

"Sir, this, this is too precious." Wei Anchang said hastily.

"It's okay, put it away, you need it." Meng Shaoyuan patted the little yellow croaker: "Although it is difficult to buy food now that you have money, but carrying this with you can save your life at critical moments."

"Then, thank you sir." Wei Anchang hesitated and said.

"You're welcome, the current situation is difficult, let's tide over the difficulties together." Meng Shaoyuan stood up, looked to leave, and suddenly asked: "By the way, have you seen seven people passing through Haofu County in the past two days?"

"Seven people?" Wei Anchang frowned: "There are a large number of refugees passing by every day. The staff department doesn't know what kind of seven people the officer is asking?"

"It's alright, it's alright."

Meng Shaoyuan looked at it and didn't care: "I'm just asking casually. Okay, you and your wife and children should go to bed early. We will see you in the future."

After finishing speaking, he walked out, leaving Wei Anchang alone!
