Seeing that Lu Baichuan's anger was getting bigger and bigger, Kuroko looked at the incoherent Erhu and hesitated, and finally gritted his teeth and stood up.

"Big brother, what the two tiger brothers mean is that we don't know the situation near the cottage yet, if we rashly go down the mountain to help the Eighth Road, it is likely that we will fall into the devil's way."

"Oh......? What is your best plan in mind, second brother? ”

Hearing what Heizi said, Lu Baichuan's face was a little better.

After clenching his fists and pondering for a moment, Kuroko bit his lip and said:

"Big brother, in my opinion, we should first send people to the mountain village and the surrounding cottage to find out the truth and see how many devils have troops, whether there are any ambushes for us, and then it's not too late to make a decision."

Hearing this, Lu Baichuan also nodded lightly, and his expression became solemn.

At this moment, the old man, who had been silent, suddenly walked out of the crowd.

"The big boss, the second boss, brothers, can you allow my old man to say a few words that I don't like."

"Oh?"

Looking at the next leader, the only henchman of the third brother Ma Sanshun, Lu Baichuan raised his hand and said:

"Brother Bangzi has something to say, and there are no outsiders here."

Thanking him, Lao Bangzi raised his eyes and looked at the sunspot and the second tiger beside him, and then looked at Lu Baichuan on the stage.

"The big boss, the Eighth Route Army has a life-saving grace for us, if it weren't for them to sacrifice their lives to help, my old man, the second master, and many brothers would not have the life to stand here today.

As the saying goes, saving soldiers is like fighting fire. Since we have decided to help the field, I think we can't hesitate.

If we wait until we have figured out everything before we act, wouldn't it be like taking off our pants and farting, and the cucumber vegetables will be cold. ”

Hearing Lao Bangzi say this, Kuroko's face darkened, and he squinted at the other party.

"Old Bangzi, you can save a soldier in one bite, but it is light to say that you are fighting a fire. Do you know how many devils and dogs there are out there? What if they have already set up an ambush near the cottage and wait for us to get in? ”

Hearing this, he looked at the second master, and Lao Bangzi's half-squinted eyes suddenly opened most of them.

"Second master, every grass and tree in this Wolong Mountain, the distribution of troops, and the defense of the roads into the mountain are all arranged by you. As far as I know, there are several hunters in our neighborhood who serve as eyeliner. If the devil wants to approach the cottage quietly, I'm afraid it's not so easy, right? ”

Heizi wanted Lao Bangzi to retreat in the face of difficulties, but he didn't want to be choked back by the other party's words, and his heart suddenly became angry.

"Nonsense! This Wolong Mountain is the foundation that my eldest brother and I have laid down one grass, one tree, one brick and one tile, and the guards are not strict, and you are an outsider to tell me! ”

"Hehe......, since the second master knows it very well in his heart, why is he afraid of sending troops to help? Besides, in this Wolong Mountain area, the devil can still have us local snakes familiar with the environment? ”

Choked by Lao Bangzi, he was speechless for a while, and Kuroko's face turned blue in an instant.

"Lao Bangzi, who do you say is afraid of the head and tail~! There's a kind of you say again! ”

"That's it! Shut up! ”

Seeing that several people in the audience were getting angrier and angrier, Lu Baichuan on the stage had a flash of one eye, and he interrupted the dispute of several people with a loud roar.

His eyes swept in front of everyone in the audience, and finally stopped in front of Lao Bangzi and Kuroko.

"Old Bangzi, you take twenty brothers and go down the mountain, and touch along the path in the direction of the mountain village, be sure to be cautious."

"Yes, big boss."

……

"Second brother, you bring forty more brothers, and follow behind Lao Bangzi, ready to take care of them at all times."

“…… Yes, big brother. ”

"Everyone else will go back to perform their duties first, and be optimistic about their respective responsible passes, if anyone leaks the devil in, don't blame Lao Tzu for turning his face and being ruthless!"

"Follow the orders of the eldest brother ......."

……

Soon, after coming out of Juyi Hall, Lao Bangzi met the four instructors of the second company who had been waiting outside for a long time.

After they learned about the attack on the mountain village, the four of them became ants on a hot pot in a hurry. If it weren't for Lao Bangzi's repeated retention and letting them wait for the news of the eldest brother's troops, these four people would have returned to the mountain village on their own.

Seeing Lao Bangzi go out, the four of them immediately surrounded him and asked.

"Brother Bangzi, do you big bosses agree to send troops?"

Raising his hand to signal a few Eighth Route Troops not to worry, Lao Bangzi sighed softly.

"It's okay, although the big boss has some doubts, he still sent me and the second boss to help."

When the soldiers of the second company heard this, the worry on their faces finally eased a little.

"Brother Bangzi, then let's hurry up, this matter can't be delayed any longer."

"I know ......, comrades of the Eighth Road, wait a moment, this time the big boss only gave me twenty subordinates, so I have to find some trustworthy brothers."

"What? Only twenty for you? What is this enough person to do? What is Lu Baichuan thinking! ”

Hearing that Lu Baichuan only gave Lao Bangzi twenty people, a few Balu suddenly became anxious. They originally thought that even if Lu Baichuan didn't go in person, they would at least send more than 100 people to the rescue. What they didn't expect was that the other party only sent more than 20 people?!

Looking at the indignant eight-way instructor in front of him, Lao Bangzi also sighed helplessly.

"Don't blame the big boss, he also has difficulties ....... But this time, he also sent the second boss with forty people to follow us, maybe he can help us when the time comes...... ”

Hearing that there were forty other people going with them, several instructors finally suppressed the dissatisfaction in their hearts.

Although a few people don't know why Lao Bangzi said this in the end, as the saying goes, something is better than nothing.

It didn't take long for Lao Bangzi to find twenty old guys who were quite intimate in this cottage. Although these people are also the original old men on this Wolong Mountain, most of these people are farmers who were forced to go to Liangshan after Lao Bangzi's observation for a period of time. Although they were bandits, they never got into the bad habits of tobacco and gambling. The most important thing is that these people have been the most conscientious in recent training, and they are all heroes who sincerely resist Japan.

Gathering a team of twenty people, plus four instructors of the second company, Lao Bangzi did not delay at all, and led people out of the cottage as soon as possible, and went straight to the mountain village from the back mountain road.

……

After going down the mountain, the old Bangzi and they did not hesitate at all, and directly trotted all the way to the destination.

Although the sky was getting darker, the speed of their two dozen people was getting faster and faster.

After climbing several hills and wading through a stream, when the sun was about to disappear into the distant ridge, Lao Bangzi and the others gradually approached the outskirts of the mountain village.

Not long after, they first found the corpses of several villagers who had gone into the mountains to hunt. After walking further for a while, several people found the bodies of three sentries of the Eighth Route Army.

Picking up Hanyang Zao next to the sentry's corpse, after pulling on the bolt and checking them one by one, looking at the five bullets full of three guns, Lao Bangzi secretly said that it was not good.

A discerning person can see that the three sentries were all stabbed to death, and the most important thing is that the guns of the three of them were actually not fired until they died.

Such a sight can only show one reason, this gang of devils is likely to come prepared, otherwise it is impossible to kill three sentinels hiding in the grass in one go without being discovered.

After walking another 200 meters, the bodies of the two sentries were found again. As expected by Lao Bangzi, these two people were also killed by a sneak attack with a knife from behind, and they did not fire a shot before they died.

"This ......, this is not right! Why didn't these sentries even fire their guns? ”

The instructors from the four second companies looked at the corpses and guns on the ground, and their faces were shocked and puzzled.

They know very well that these sentries are not recruits, but veterans of the second company!

These people have become cold corpses without even putting their guns down, which makes them very puzzled, could it be that the devils are all heavenly soldiers and generals, otherwise how could they know that there are people hiding on this hillside?

"Brother Bangzi, look!"

At this moment, a bandit named Zhang Bao pointed to the bottom of the hillside and shouted.

Walking down the hill following the sound, Lao Bangzi saw the dense footprints on the ground at a glance.

"Obediently, these are all footprints of devil boots, I'm afraid there are more than two hundred people!"

Looking at the dense footprints on the ground, Lao Bangzi took out his box cannon, looked at the people around him and said in a deep voice:

"...... we have encountered hard stubble, everyone is smart, and we are about to reach the edge of the village."

Looking at the looming village in the distance and the dense footprints of Japanese military boots under the hillside, Lao Bangzi couldn't help but sweat for the second company. As far as he knew, the strength of the second company could not support more than 200 people, and the firepower was not even as strong as that of Wolong Mountain.

Now in the face of an equal number of devil soldiers, not to mention, eighty percent of the opponent is still a sneak attack.

Calculated in this way, it is estimated that this gang of eight roads will have to shed their skin even if they don't die.

……

Thinking of this, Lao Bangzi subconsciously opened the insurance of the box cannon in his hand.

At dusk, everyone disappeared in the grass and slowly approached the mountain village in the smoke of gunpowder.

Along the way, the group encountered several large blood stains and bullet casings all over the ground, all indicating that fierce fighting had broken out here.

As they approached the village, a strong smell of blood wafted in the wind, making everyone tense.

Looking at the village dyed red in the distance under the sunset, Lao Bangzi swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva fiercely, so that his throat could be more comfortable.

In the eyes of everyone, the quiet and somewhat strange village in front of them is like a monster lying in the mountains, waiting for the prey to come to the door by itself.

"Old Bangzi, why am I so panicked when I look at this village. If you want to say that we often come and go in the mountain village, we have never felt this way before. ”

A few men who were fierce in the past looked at the village not far ahead, and their hearts were a little stunned, and a few of them seemed to have the intention of retreating.

Hearing this, he glared back at a few people, and the old man scolded him with hatred that iron is not steel:

"If any of you coax me, get out of the way as soon as possible, don't grind like a girl here."
