力戰、避戰，兩派分歧僵持不下，最終不歡而散！303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7htcfWoyOK
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixfgLIR7LJ
廟公找一郎說句公道話。他認為避戰派的意見不無道理，畢竟兵者凶也，子彈不長眼。他還說：「兩軍相戰打起來，樓仔厝『損蕩』（毀壞）閣算小事，若萬不離閣再傷及無辜的鄉親，你有幾條命也嘸夠賠！」303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpteWtaUDZ
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxz8k6Ki8H5
廟公試圖遊說一郎，把戰場移至郊區。一來，鄰里間可避免戰禍；二來，也能成全敢死隊求戰的決心。303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3SZxoMGjC
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMTJPCB0dS
一郎是明白人，自然聽得出廟公話理的潛台詞；他表面中立，但心底其實傾向避戰！303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYkTS5D5xo
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLuupkJVCjH
雖說廟公所言在理，可野戰對敢死隊來說，幾乎毫無勝算，等於白送軍隊一次勝利！與其犧牲自己長敵人士氣，不如破釜沉舟來一回巷戰，尚能拼死一搏！303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefBQQcItqf
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqMs0baZKQ
一郎深知自己兵力有限，守不了整個庄，於是向廟公提出請求，希望能借他的保安宮作為據點，讓敢死隊據守其中！如此一來，也能避免戰事殃及民宅。303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4R5k5cmng
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PZEjwjKlY
廟公聽完當場傻眼，呆若木雞、良久無語！他懊悔不該多嘴，把火引到自己身上！303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKc6LelQiF
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ35iGeqpln
當廟公還在琢磨著，該用什麼理由拒絕時，一郎端起步槍，拉了一下槍機，作勢清槍。303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡedalbNFLrO
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6PiAVeGa0
廟公畢竟曾在道上混過，馬上讀懂一郎的暗示。心想：他這哪裡是借！303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx87NYJ55Ed
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7FY5TWvix
一郎現在有人有槍，話語權掌握在他手上，借廟不過是客氣的知會一聲！303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0nWrDvs0c
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTeCa2lmpn
但廟公仍存有私心，摸了摸鼻子，說：「嘸你先去擲茭，呷保生大帝請示旨意。你若是擲有三個聖茭，我這間廟就給恁拿去打！」廟公打算賭一回，寄望無形的力量能幫他保住宮廟。303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3iraDQHZE
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUd2a0eiD7
一郎起身，先循禮參拜完畢後，再回到供桌前。他雙膝跪地，畢恭畢敬地向保生大帝請示，結果一連擲出三個聖茭！廟公這才心甘情願地把廟借給他。303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXpZ4VlpcA
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRceKirhEd6
翌日，一大早，敢死隊與大輪車的人開始構築保安宮的防禦工事；每道門、每扇窗，都疊起沙包、木板；周邊街道還架起竹矛、柵欄，以為路障、拒馬！303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGtKo0W8sE
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo08ZfwD453
許多支持他們的鄰里鄉親也動員前來協助工程，甚至還有不少人捐糧、捐水、捐藥、捐被毯等物資，為可能陷入的持久戰做準備！303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QANxAVJOF
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFllXfkZ2oo
廟公領著萬猴與他的小弟們，連忙把神像請出，移駕至鄰庄宮廟，暫時安置。303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdrVLq45IN
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNbtewWFrS
一郎架起爬梯，偕小治、查理與弘爺，四人先後爬上宮廟的屋頂，蹲坐在橘紅色屋瓦上俯視整個南庄。303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gDmpMEDIh
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWX6R9bzE9
保安宮坐北朝南，是全庄的制高點，視野良好，可遠眺整個江仔嘴！用望遠鏡還能看見更遠一點的「鐵路橋」（新店溪橋）與「光復橋」（舊稱「昭和橋」），這也是為何一郎要向廟公借保安宮據守的主要原因。303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0caWpOVfL
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJC3lJ6oo2S
另一個次要原因，是保安宮位於南庄中央，四周民宅林立，不利軍隊動用重炮與飛機轟炸，可挾民宅以增防守優勢！這也是一郎拒絕野戰，堅持巷戰的重點考量。303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJ84fJyeSr
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzCh8HIuyE
「彼邊恐怕是戰況尚激烈的所在！」一郎指向廟口菜市說。303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfCnZ2BIoWx
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyr0mE2OoWE
由於西、北、東三面皆是鄰里巷弄，不利攻擊方排兵佈陣、施展火力，唯南面廟口菜市的開闊地有利大部隊正面展開！所以他在南面東西兩翼，各挑一棟三角窗的街屋佈置據點，設置機槍，與保安宮呈三點犄角之勢，交叉火網，相互支援。303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMtf5ziKPA
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpiiYDX2GP
正當一郎自信滿滿的介紹完防線佈局後，突然話鋒一轉，語重心長的問：「恁的大輪車若是袂堪作戰，敢會使沈入溪中，莫給外省仔拿去禍害別人！」他知道大輪車沒剩多少彈藥，戰力有限，且此役必敗，擔心戰後會落入軍隊手中！303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqTEpD6cCc
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTx6j6iOUr
小治、查理是沒什麼意見，但弘爺卻強烈反對！因為雲豹可是他的寶貝，過去一年來，日復一日，夙夜匪懈的保養維護，豈容說沉就沉！303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk51ZmcAaLT
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWg6qEKNfFC
弘爺表示：「憲兵隊還閣有一台大輪車，若是軍隊找到方法將車修理好適，安呢咱台灣人手頭會使拿出來對抗的車，就剩這台了；所以絕對袂使沉入溪中，而且還閣要想辦法保護著！」語畢，一郎嘆了口氣，臉一沉，看著弘爺半晌無語。303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEfU32pf3u
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2eNajBsGdT
一郎認為弘爺所言也不是沒有道理，最後只好將此事暫時擱置；因為眼下還有其他工作要忙活，雲豹的去留問題，只好等稍晚再議了。303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4HVptDbjK3
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5XF7JmQvL
楊站、燈子返回台灣站，發現站樓被另一群台灣站幹員攻佔！他們還把凌亂不堪的站樓，大略整理一遍。當楊站一看到響馬出現，這才知道他們是老瓦南部分站的人！303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMeNC0Q93s
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKFqeUIQgd
響馬：「『瓦爺』失蹤多日，我們群龍無首，不知該如何是好，想說來投靠『神爺』您；卻沒想到這裡竟然放空城，還遭暴民洗劫！」他們好不容易將滯留站裡的民眾驅離，重新奪回控制權。這才剛掄起手來收拾善後不久，楊站就回來了。303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWB2kzoxdhi
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxEzs2d4yj
得見響馬一行人到來，令楊站大喜過望！恰如久旱逢甘霖，一波及時雨緩解了他的燃眉之急！303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThjfjR8NJx
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLCHDXyYBN
再清點一遍人數，一共十四員，合著還有三輛黑頭車與一輛卡車！他們不但訓練有素，還自備槍彈；與臨時組建的忠義服務隊相比，雙方素質簡直天差地別！303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWnwfkncDx
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2C10ivXU7i
收編了老瓦的南部幹員後，楊站士氣大振！他開始琢磨著：該如何反攻江仔嘴，奪回大輪車以報一箭之仇！303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58bKgOVgU8
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8t4Oqiib6
何奈楊站手上，沒兵沒權，只見他來回踱步，苦惱不已。303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKQV0K5NNs
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrDcgjvx7j
燈子見楊站一籌莫展，於是提了個餿主意。他怯聲提議：「不如......咱們偽造軍令！」303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxOZnFrFnE
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJYO6yRTQt
「混帳東西！」楊站立刻破口大罵：「偽照文書都能讓你牢底坐穿，何況是偽照軍令！你不想活命，我還想活！」303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhCb87z0Ho
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIas0hpNQd3
燈子也是萬般無奈，才會出此下策！還勸道：「大丈夫欲成大事，就該不拘小節；何況現在外頭都亂成一鍋粥了，誰還管得著那些繁文縟節！」303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgsXEvibCb
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyuD2L9F6Ov
楊站聽他這麼一說，也覺得有些道理。於是問：「那……這事你可有把握？」303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7WNTBIj8z
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9g9Fgksx2
燈子拍著胸脯，再三保證：「放心，這活兒我門兒清！」303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHuJbmgUa5p
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmaDDc1WmDX
最後楊站同意燈子的提議，走一回險棋試試！303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpChBSWjwq
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gZpdIQhhl
隨後，燈子借了輛黑頭車開出去，也不知他究竟去了哪裡。等了半天，直到過15點才回來，此時手上還拿著一張幾可亂真，如假包換的「派兵令」！303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfH8UXJTag
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByGMnJOh9g
「響兒！」楊站頻頻誇道：「瞧你這事辦得……天衣無縫啊！」303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1A4HJqTQ9Z
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIOsU6S4af
楊站取得兵令後，事不宜遲，趕緊點齊人馬，直奔憲兵隊去。303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeyNYX9nD9
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5tVw3gULn
出發時，響馬還不解的問：「神爺，您不派人留守，難道這衙門不要了？」303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSFiLag5Rn
303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImc3bGEq38
楊站：「呿，鐵打的衙門、流水的官，不就是棟遮風避雨的殼子，有啥好希罕的，沒了就沒了！」他還引用燈子的話，說：「大丈夫欲成大事，就該不拘小節！」
