"Lao Zhao, what's wrong?"

Holding a torch and walking quickly in front of Zhao Shixun, Zhou Yu looked at the location of the gun and asked anxiously.

He was awakened by the sound of gunshots, so there was still a hint of panic on his face.

……

"There was only one gunshot, which should have been from the 38 big cover...... Dapeng has already taken someone to touch the situation, and the others are still unclear. ”

"Thirty-eight big cover...... It can't be a devil, right? ”

Hearing that it was the voice of the 38 big cover, Zhou Yu's face changed, and his worry became even stronger.

"Not necessarily, Sanlian is also equipped with a lot of 38 big covers, so it's hard to say whether it's a devil or not."

Speaking of this, Zhao Shixun looked at the assembled company and artillery detachment, and then turned to Zhou Yu and said:

"Inevitably, Lao Zhou, you take a company of them to the south mountain to hide first, and when I find out the situation, I will send someone to contact you as soon as possible."

Remember to always extinguish all torches when you arrive at the location...... The soldiers were also told that from now on they must strictly enforce night orders until anyone makes contact. If you don't meet the right one, you will shoot it directly! ”

“…… I understand, but you have to be careful, if the enemy touches you, quickly disengage and move closer to us! ”

"Uh-huh......."

……

Soon, after Zhou Yu led a company and an artillery detachment to leave, Zhao Shixun scattered and hid in the darkness near the fire with the assembled soldiers, waiting for news from Dapeng and them.

Because it was dark, it was inevitable that the recruits would be attacked by mistake because of nervousness after entering the woods, Zhao Shixun thought about it again and again, and decided to lead the remaining soldiers of the third company to stay here, and patiently waited for fifteen minutes.

……

In the dark night, the vision passed minute by minute.

After waiting for ten minutes, with the creak of footsteps stepping over the snow, more than a dozen black figures gradually appeared in Zhao Shixun's field of vision.

Ordering the machine gun to be aimed at the black shadow, Zhao Shixun immediately shouted:

"Password!"

"Snowy night!"

“…… Mountain peak! ”

……

After determining the night password, Zhao Shixun let out a long breath, got up and led the soldiers out of the bunker to meet the Dapeng and them.

"Did you figure it out?"

As soon as they met, Zhao Shixun asked directly.

"Detachment leader, our secret post captured a spy, and the other party just wanted to run, but was injured in the arm by the secret whistle."

As he spoke, Dapeng picked up a man in tattered clothes from the ground and handed a Japanese-style southern pistol to Zhao Shixun by the way.

"Detachment leader, this is from this kid, ninety percent of the new Wang Ba box."

took the southern pistol and looked at it, Zhao Shixun raised his eyes to look at the man who was pulled up.

In the dim light of the fire, an unkempt man with rags stuffed in his mouth, stared at the surroundings with a pair of copper bell-like eyes, and whined from time to time.

"Why are you gagging him?"

"Oh...... This kid is very wild, and he almost bit one of my fighters just now, so I ...... Hey. ”

Hearing this, he glared at the other party, and Zhao Shixun immediately ripped off the rag in the man's mouth.

"Who told you to spy on us?"

……

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......."

Suddenly inhaled cold air, making the man's throat difficult to adapt. As his chest heaved, he coughed violently, and even his eyes bulged out.

Seeing that the other party was coughing and not playing, Dapeng immediately pulled the other party up irritably.

"Our captain asks you something, you kid pretend to me again, believe it or not, I'll kill you!"

……

"Okay Dapeng, let him catch his breath."

Raising his hand to stop Dapeng's actions, Zhao Shixun lightly loaded the southern pistol in his hand, and then said in a cold tone:

"You don't have many opportunities, I hope you know to cherish them. I'm still the same question, who sent you? ”

……

may have heard the coldness in Zhao Shixun's tone, and the man resisted the urge to cough and looked up at Zhao Shixun.

"You...... You're not bandits? ”

……

"Bandits? Open your dog's eyes and see clearly, we are the Eighth Route Army! ”

……

Ignoring Dapeng's scolding, the man raised his head and looked at Zhao Shixun again and again when he heard this.

"You...... Are you Company Commander Zhao? ”

"Company Commander Zhao...... You are......? ”

Hearing the other party call himself Company Commander Zhao, Zhao Shixun suddenly felt that the other party's voice seemed to be a little familiar.

And the man saw that Zhao Shixun didn't seem to recognize him, so he quickly grabbed a handful of snow on the ground and rubbed it on his face, and then wiped it with his torn sleeve.

"Chief Zhao, I'm Lao Bangzi......! I'm Ma Sange's subordinate Lao Bangzi! ”

……

……

Next to the warm fire, Ma Sanshun handed a pot of freshly boiled hot water to Lao Bangzi, and at the same time kept taking food from his dry food bag to Lao Bangzi, who was gobbling it up.

"Eat brother slowly, eat ...... slowly."

……

Not long ago, Zhao Shixun sent someone to call back Zhou Yu, who was hiding in the mountain, and then ordered someone to light a few fires again to keep warm.

And after Zhou Yu and the others brought people back, Ma Sanshun also saw his loyal subordinate Lao Bangzi who he hadn't seen for a long time.

As soon as they met, Lao Bangzi hugged Ma Sanshun and cried, telling him and his brothers about being killed by Liu Heizi, the second master, 1510.

And hearing that Liu Heizi actually killed his brother, Ma Sanshun's eyes seemed to be about to erupt with fire. If it weren't for the strict military discipline of the Eighth Route Army, coupled with Zhou Yu's patient persuasion, Ma Sanshun would almost have to go back single-handedly to find Liu Heizi for revenge.

……

A few minutes later, seeing that Lao Bangzi had almost eaten, Ma Sanshun hesitated, but asked again:

"Old Bangzi, think about it again, who saved you?"

Hearing this, he was stunned for a moment, and Lao Bangzi knocked his head a few times, and finally shook his head helplessly:

"Third brother, I really can't remember. I remember falling off a cliff and then I had a vague feeling that someone had changed my medicine a few times. By the time I was completely conscious, there was no one around except for the little girl I had rescued. ”

"Didn't the little girl say who saved you?"

"I asked, but the kid only said that a masked man had brought her here, and she didn't know anything else."

"And then?"

……

"Uh...... Later, as I told you, the benefactor suddenly disappeared and never came back. ”

……

Speaking of this, Lao Bangzi put down the kettle in his hand, and then wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes again.

"Third brother, if it weren't for the revenge for our brother, if it weren't for waiting for you to come back, my old man would have been unable to hold on for a long time.

In the past six months, I have been looking forward to it day and night, just hoping that the third brother will come back one day and be able to administer justice for the brothers.

God has eyes, and finally let my old man look forward to the third brother back....... ”

……

"Brother, the injury on your arm is out of the way, right?"

At this moment, Dapeng, who had not been seen, suddenly walked over, looked at Lao Bangzi and asked a little embarrassed.

"It's okay...... you don't have to worry about Company Commander Zhang, this little injury is nothing to me at all. Besides, I don't blame you for this matter, it's true that my old man is too reckless. ”

Hearing this, he covered his newly bandaged left arm, and Lao Bangzi showed an expression of nonchalance.

"There is a kind, my brother is really a man....... Oh yes, this is your matching gun, and our detachment leader asked me to return it to you. ”

Speaking of which, Dapeng handed the southern pistol he had taken away earlier to Lao Bangzi.

Subconsciously just raised his hand, just when Lao Bangzi wanted to take the pistol, he suddenly thought of something, and then slapped his thigh and stood up.

"Oops...... Look at my pig brain, thinking about eating, forgetting such an important thing!

Company Commander Zhang, this gun is not mine. ”

……

Suddenly stunned by the other party's reaction, Dapeng's gun hand immediately hung in the air.

"What...... What's that? Not yours? ”

"Oops...... it's really not mine, this shot is a mountain man who was intercepted by me."

"Mountain man? …… You mean the bandits of Wolong Mountain? ”

"Yes, but that's not the point...... Oh, it's very important anyway, you can take me to see your chief quickly, I'm afraid it'll be too late! ”

……

“…… Okay, come with me. ”

Although he didn't know what the other party meant, Dapeng immediately took Lao Bangzi to see Zhao Shixun.

……

A few minutes later, after listening to Lao Bangzi's explanation, Zhao Shixun's face immediately became extremely gloomy.

He just learned from Lao Bangzi that Liu Heizi, the current head of Wolong Mountain, was actually playing Tai Chi with him, and at the same time sent people to contact the Japanese army in the stronghold in the north, wanting to give himself a surprise attack!

"Fuck it...... This deflated calf thing, Lao Tzu should have fired directly to kill him in the morning! ”

Hearing that Liu Heizi actually sold himself in person, Dapeng immediately scolded angrily. Originally, he thought that the other party was just a bandit who was used to occupying the mountain as the king and living happily, but he didn't expect this thing to really hook up with the devil. Combined with the other party's move to hit his own black gun, Dapeng suddenly felt like he was being played by the other party as a fool.

"Detachment leader, let's attack early tomorrow morning, I don't believe that these miscellaneous people can withstand the attack of our two companies!"

……

Ignoring the angry Dapeng, Zhao Shixun picked up the letter that Lao Bangzi had seized from Erhu again and read it carefully.

This is a letter of appointment written by the captain of the Japanese military police in Jiangxian County to Liu Heizi, which not only compliments and promises of Liu Heizi's loyalty to the Japanese emperor, but also a request for help from the nearby Japanese puppet army stronghold and a certificate for permission to clear customs.

……

"Lao Zhao, what does this mean?"

Since the appointment letter was all in Japanese, Zhou Yu could only turn to Zhao Shixun, who was proficient in Japanese, after reading a few words with difficulty.

"This means appointing Liu Heizi as the head of the new security regiment in Jiangxian County, and at the same time asking the nearby Japanese puppet army to supervise the descent of the bandits in Wolong Mountain along the way, and give the right of way and necessary help ......."

"Tsk...... This Liu Heizi, a position in the puppet army security regiment, let him sell his Chinese conscience, hehe...... It's a shame that I still want to recruit him into the anti-Japanese ....... ”

…… To be continued, thank you for your support.
