The guerrillas did not all participate in the condolence performance, but were led by Zhao Tie and Lao Zhou, and more than ten people were there, including the only performance team of the guerrillas - the Four Sisters.

This is also normal. It is reasonable to send a large group of people to mobilize without going to welcome him. Several leaders went to express their intentions and put on another show to make a lively one, which is enough.

Originally, after Zhao Tie and Lao Zhou watched the preview, they had to lend a more uniform outfit for the four sisters in the village, but there were no more clothes than new wedding dresses in rural women.

Finally, Chen Chen suggested that all the Japanese yellow tweed coats were worn to their knees, with white shirts and leather boots on their feet. The conditions were like that, and Zhao Tie and Lao Zhou nodded in agreement.

Chen Chen's clothes are ready-made, so it's all done when washing them clean and drying them on the kang.

Shortness is a problem, and it doesn't match the three companions, so Chen Chen stretched the white velvet hat hard and turned it into a women's spring and autumn pull-out hat that looked very much like the later generations.

Yang Ye was not satisfied. He didn't know where to get the paint. He dyed the hat black all of a sudden. It was not very pure black and uneven.

When Chen Chen first got it, he was stunned for a moment. He thought this was good. Hiding or performing tasks at night was also a disguise.

Of course, Yang Ye was very dissatisfied with his craftsmanship and was very sorry for making Chen Chen’s hat like this. But there was no time left, so she couldn’t let go of processing anymore.

It has been two or three days since the Fifth Regiment returned to the base area, and the condolence and welcome meeting has officially begun. We must prepare and let the cadres and soldiers of the main regiment rest and clean up!

They set off early in the morning. When Chen Chen and others arrived at Dayushu Village, they were just about to catch up with the people organized by the district committee.

The drum beats were beating happily. More than a dozen strong men carried the fat pigs they had killed, and led a few fat sheep with red cloth strips behind them. Then there were the yangko team and the children's group's whip.

The soldiers of the main group put on clean and repaired clothes, gathered in the threshing field in the village, and looked at them with smiles.

Chen Chen and others were still watching and watching. Sun Lianying came out of nowhere, with oil paint on her face with unfinished makeup on her face, and she went forward to pull people.

"You are not too slow, but you are so anxious that you are looking for people everywhere!" Sun Lianying was so anxious that she said something like a bean.

Chen Chen was still not too busy. Yu Baogen had the ability to take the spear he was carrying and carried it on his shoulder.

"Go away, go away." Sun Lianying kept urging, "Sister Jin Xiu was so anxious. I don't know when you will come, and the show can't be scheduled."

Chen Chen and others looked at each other, some sticking out their tongues, some curling their mouths, feeling a little sorry, and also feeling that Sun Lianying was exaggerating.

After rushing to the stage, several mattresses were the actors' dressing room and preparation room. People came and went, chattered, and it was enough to be messy.

"Oh, you're here." Li Jinxiu saw Chen Chen and others and rushed over and said, "Hurry up and put on makeup. You are in the third show, and it will be too late."

Putting on makeup?! Chen Chen curled his lips secretly, saying nothing against him, but he did not respond actively.

Looking at the three women who were walking with me, the red black pigment on their faces facing the small mirror, yes, it was the pigment. Chen Chen rolled his eyes so that he would not make his face red and his black eyebrows look like ghosts!

"Damei, hurry up!" Yang Ye couldn't help but urge him when he saw Chen Chen was not moving.

Chen Chen reached out to pick up the black charcoal, grinned, looked at the small mirror and smeared it thickly on the circles, blinked his eyes, thinking that this was enough.

In order not to let people press and stumble, Chen Chen turned around and slipped aside while others were not paying attention.

In the mattress next to it were military performers, who were also busy packing up. Chen Chen looked bored and yawned. Just as he was about to turn his head, a familiar figure appeared.

My heart suddenly jumped, and Chen Chen looked closely and it was indeed her.

He Xiaoyan?! That's right, it's He Xiaoyan.

Perhaps she had suffered too much sunshine on her face, and her original whiteness turned into wheat color. She was wearing a military uniform and tightly wore a belt around her waist, and her mood seemed high and optimistic.

After not seeing each other for a few months, the weak aura on He Xiaoyan has been reduced a lot, revealing a free and slightly wild temperament.

He Xiaoyan spoke loudly, directing this and that, as if she was the leader of the performance team.

As if he noticed a gaze staring at him, He Xiaoyan turned her head and saw Chen Chen not far away.

He is tall and well-proportioned, and his face is much whiter than the usual country girl. He has no makeup on, but his eyes are covered with black, making his eyes look bigger and more energetic.

He Xiaoyan was very impressed by the sight. After careful examination, he found that the girl's face and facial features were very upright, and she could even be said to be delicate. She wore a hat and had a neutral style, which made her look even more handsome.

Chen Chen saw He Xiaoyan staring at her, his emotions were very complicated, but he habitually showed a polite smile and nodded slightly.

He Xiaoyan has a good impression of this girl, and is not arrogant, and she smiles more beautiful and special.

He Xiaoyan smiled and waved to Chen Chen. She didn't know what she wanted to do, she just wanted to talk to this special girl and get to know her.

Even if I was beaten to death, I couldn't recognize me! Chen Chen calmed down a little and walked over with a smile.

"Hello, my name is He Xiaoyan."

"Hello, my name is Sun Damei."

Both of them looked slender and soft, and when they first met, they seemed like an old friend I hadn't seen for many years. Both of them felt this way.

"You are so beautiful." He Xiaoyan said in admiration: "Why don't you put on makeup, right?"

Chen Chen smiled with a pursed lips, looked at He Xiaoyan at a distance of close proximity, and said, "You are the best looking. You can tell at a glance that it was from a big city, not like me, a country girl."

"You are not like a country girl." He Xiaoyan showed a look of surprise and then smiled and pulled Chen Chen on the small stool beside her, "Come on, I'll put on makeup for you so that everyone can see you, the phoenix in the countryside."

Chen Chen wanted to refuse, but he held back again. After a long time of separation, the feeling of intimacy made him feel that it was nothing to put on makeup. Anyway, it was Sun Damei, not himself.

He Xiaoyan took out a red look from her pocket and carefully painted Chen Chen's lips.

Chen Chen realized that this must have been brought from Shanghai, and He Xiaoyan was reluctant to use it.

After drawing his lips, He Xiaoyan gave Chen Chen a little blush, drew his eyebrows again, and drew the circles in his eyes.

Taking a step back, He Xiaoyan admired it carefully, smiled even more happily on her face, and said loudly: "Hi, everyone, come and see the great beauties in our base."

Chen Chen was about to stand up quickly, and a moment later, seven or eight women had already surrounded him and joked around him.

He Xiaoyan hugged Chen Chen's shoulders, her faces were very close, and she looked smiling in a mirror.

At this moment, someone loudly reminded him, "Quiet, quiet. I'm going to speak on stage, and the performer is ready."

The joking voice immediately became smaller, and He Xiaoyan asked with a chuckle, "Damei, what kind of program will you perform on stage later?"

Chen Chen replied: "It's a chorus of "The Great Wall Ballad" with three teammates of the guerrillas."

"The Great Wall Ballad" is nice." He Xiaoyan knew the song and nodded and said, "Then you can sing folk songs. I heard that in the mountains, all the people can sing; the happiest thing for girls to be together is to sing a few songs."

Chen Chen smiled and shook his head, saying, "No, who did you hear? You can't even eat enough, and the people still have the heart to sing? Anyway, I can't sing."

There are indeed many folk songs in Shandong, all of which are ancient local traditional music, often the most prominent in the minor tune of life.

It is obviously an exaggeration to say that everyone can sing, but Chen Chen still knows something from Damei's memory, but he doesn't want to say it.

He Xiaoyan curled her lips and said, "Not like you said..."

As he was talking, Chen Chen saw Yang Ye walking in, waved at him, and stood up and said, "They called me, probably for the sake of the show, let's talk about it in the future."

He Xiaoyan nodded with a smile and stuffed her lipstick into Chen Chen's pocket, "Go quickly, don't delay."

Chen Chen walked back, met with Yang Ye and others, talked about the performance, and waited for the performance to begin.

Leader Zheng’s speech, district mayor’s speech, and the head of the mass organization spoke, and the condolence performance began, which was not too long-lasting and troublesome.

The first program was organized in the district, with a very lively singing and dancing that won applause.

The second program is from the main group, He Xiaoyan and others appear,

"Why are you afraid of sacrifice? You will be passionate about resisting the enemy..." When He Xiaoyan leads the singer and a few women sing the back-up songs, "The Brave Chinese" is heard in Chen Chen's ears, he feels a little weird.

This song was the first song by Chu Jiao, but Chen Chen had never heard it. Of course he knew that this was a song that did not belong to this era, and he could probably guess that it had something to do with him.

After all, if there is still a time traveler, Chen Chen will not make such assumptions now.

After singing the song, it won warm applause, which was a song that no one had heard before. It was also very appropriate in the context of the strong anti-Japanese atmosphere at that time.

The third one is the program released by the guerrillas, and it is also the only program "The Great Wall Ball".

When the newspaper clerk spoke out the name of the person performing aloud, it immediately attracted the attention of Captain Zheng and others.

When he returned to the base area, Battalion Commander Wang was naturally the first to report.

Their battalion fought several battles, suffered considerable losses, quick replenishment, and greatly improved equipment. These are all achievements.

Moreover, he is more aware of the current situation in the base area, the enemy and puppet troops and dynamics, so he naturally needs to inform the superiors.

The report also included Chen Chen, and Battalion Commander Wang praised Chen Chen in front of the regiment commander and political commissar.

Commander Zheng knew that Battalion Commander Wang would not lie, but he couldn't believe it when he praised so much. As for what Battalion Commander Wang said, he was not so urgent to win Chen Chen into the army.

When Commander Zheng heard the newspaperman say Chen Chen's name, he was worried. He had to pay attention. Captain Wang was also beside him, and when he heard it, he began to remind him.

"I forgot to say that Damei sings are also nice." Battalion Commander Wang was afraid that his elder superior would not notice it, so he introduced him tightly, "I just don't like to sing, and ran away from the last condolence performance, which was disappointing."

"Miss, maybe she's shy!" Captain Zheng didn't care much, but his eyes were staring at the stage.

The four uniforms and heroic women came on stage, attracting the attention of the audience on stage.

"The one wearing a hat is Damei." Battalion Commander Wang continued to serve as the commentator, "She is the tallest."

Commander Zheng looked at it carefully, and because he was sitting in the first row, he saw clearly, and said in surprise: "It turned out to be a handsome girl."

"Captain, don't be confused by her appearance." Battalion Commander Wang said: "This girl looks handsome, and I felt that way at that time. But she is really desperate to fight and is so murderous. If you don't believe me, ask Captain Zhao and Instructor Zhou of the guerrillas, there are almost more than a hundred Japanese traitors who died under her gun!"

"This--" Captain Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly, and was really suspicious of the number, but he didn't say it out loud.

Political Commissar Shen could hear clearly from the side and said in a deep thought: "If it is so powerful as you said, it would be a good thing to recruit her into the army."

Battalion Commander Wang hurriedly said, "I am doing this job. If you want to talk about her shooting skills, it's really amazing. Having her during the war is equivalent to having an extra mortar."

After pausing, Battalion Commander Wang said again: "It's even better than a mortar. She uses bullets, which we can afford. If it's a mortar, then the shells will still be a problem!"

The singing started, and Chen Chen deliberately lowered the door, which was not prominent. Several female voices gathered together, like a yellow oriole coming out of the valley, crisp and pleasant.
