Under normal circumstances, it is small animals such as squirrels that feed on it, and humans will never eat this thing under normal circumstances, or in other words, most people don't know that this thing can be eaten!

This thing is more bitter than Chinese medicine when bitten, and it is also poisonous!

If it weren't for the fact that Yang Ming, Lao Cui and Lao Qin were all old soldiers who climbed the snowy mountains and crossed the grassland, in the southwest region, when food was the most scarce, they had eaten food made of this wooden chestnut in the villager's house, I am afraid that they would not know that this thing could be eaten!

Wood chestnuts contain a lot of starch and toxins, mainly tannic acid.

As long as the tannic acid component is removed, this thing can be eaten, and it is relatively nutritious - of course, this is more nutritious, naturally compared to grass root bark!

Five hundred men went out together, and soon gathered a lot of wooden chestnuts and piled them up into a hill in the camp.

"Remove the shell first, like this!"

Lao Cui arranged to do a demonstration to let people remove the layer of wooden hard shell on the outer layer of the wooden chestnut, revealing the flesh in it.

Then someone gathered the pulp, smashed it with a mallet that is usually used to process grass roots and bark, then added water, soaked, precipitated, filtered, repeated several times, and then compacted, and then obtained pieces of tofu-like things......

"Wood chestnut tofu, eating this thing is much better than eating grass roots and bark to fight hunger!"

Old Cui laughed, and said while stewing this thing: "There are many more in the mountains, we have to gather them all, let's save it, at least we can eat it for several days......"

Yang Ming Lao Qin also laughed, pretending not to know that eating this thing is indeed anti-hunger, but if you eat too much, it will be easy to pull it out, and the effect is the same as eating Guanyin soil......

If you don't pick it out, I'm afraid you can kill people alive!

Of course, they don't talk about more factors, because they know that eating this thing is also an expedient measure for the detachment - the stronghold of the front gate building must be hit!

Eating this thing can somewhat alleviate the weakness of the soldiers, and when attacking the stronghold of the front gatehouse, you can accumulate a little more physical strength!

The lid of the pot was opened, and bowls of wooden chestnut tofu were served.

For many days, the bowls of the first warriors were so rich that not only were they not grassroots, but they were also dry......

As for the taste......

At this time, who cares about the taste!

That's why Lao Cui, the cook, muttered while eating, if you can put some salt in it, it should taste much better......

In the stronghold of the front gatehouse, a group of Japanese soldiers are huddled in the watchtower to keep warm, and those puppet soldiers have to be responsible for garrison patrols and other tasks in the cold fortifications, and at the same time look at the devils in the watchtower with envy......

In the distant mountains and forests, Yang Ming and several investigators were conducting reconnaissance on the fortifications of the front gate building with the strength provided by the wooden chestnut tofu after eating the wooden chestnut tofu......

There is a reason why the Qianmenlou Devil Stronghold is the only one of the best strongholds that can be attacked in the surrounding area.

First of all, there is a small hill around the stronghold of the front gatehouse, which is conducive to the charge of those who are seriously undernourished and under-armed, and can allow them to rush into the range of the fortifications of the front gatehouse as quickly as possible, and start hand-to-hand combat with the little devils as soon as possible......

"Lao Qin, when the time comes, you will lead a team of men and horses to make a feint attack from here to attract the attention of the devil puppet army!"

Yang Ming sketched on his hand-drawn shoddy map and said, "I'll take the rest of the people here, as soon as the battle on your side starts, our side will start to charge......

"Captain, you lead the team to charge, it's too dangerous, let's come, you lead the team to feint!" Old Qin Dao.

"Do you think there is a difference at this time?" Yang Ming smiled bitterly.

Lao Qin also smiled bitterly, he understood what Yang Ming meant!

It's only January now, and there are still two or three months before the spring flowers bloom, and there is still half a year before the summer harvest!

For such a long time, if it didn't get extra food, would the detachment really be able to make wooden chestnut tofu and eat grass root bark with the little wooden chestnuts that were recently discovered?

That's impossible!

Therefore, if you can't defeat this stronghold of the front gatehouse, everyone will die!

The only difference is to die in battle or to be starved to death!

"Let's go back, tomorrow we will come directly with people and horses, if it doesn't work, then we will become benevolent and fight with these little devils and traitors......"

Yang Ming gritted his teeth fiercely, and slowly retreated with Lao Qin and a dozen soldiers, ready to evacuate!

"Don't move, raise your hands!"

As soon as he turned the mountain col and left the control area of the ghost puppet army in the front gate building, before Yang Ming and the others could breathe a sigh of relief, they all heard the low roar that sounded in all directions, as well as the sound of bullets being loaded!

"Damn, it's in ambush!"

Yang Ming and the others were awe-inspiring, and while confirming the enemy's position, they reached out and touched the gun or the grenade on their waist, ready to fight desperately......

"Don't move, you don't have any chance!"

A cold voice came, and at the same time, a tall devil walked out, holding a flower mechanism in his hand, smiling at Yang Ming and the others, and pointing around......

Around, the muzzles of dozens of devils in the black hole were aimed at them, and there were seven or eight of them!

It is conceivable that as long as Yang Ming and the others make any rash moves, these bullets will shoot out like a torrential rain, beating them all into a sieve!

"Dog traitor, don't think that the guy is good, my Santai detachment will be afraid of you!"

Yang Ming and Old Qin all roared in unison, and at the same time as they suddenly rushed around, the muzzle of the gun was also pointed at the tall devil in front of him, and he was about to fire......

"Don't Shoot......"

As soon as the tall devil heard the number of the three detachments, he hurriedly roared and raised the flower machine in his hand and said: "We are from the Jindong detachment, and we ...... our own people."

"Who is your own person with you little devils?"

Several soldiers' eyes were red, and they were about to open fire when they pulled the bolt, but Yang Ming Lao Qin heard the four words of the Jindong detachment, and hurriedly asked the soldiers to stop, and at the same time said: "Wearing the clothes of a little devil and saying that he is from the Jindong detachment - what proof do you have?" ”

The tall devil, of course, is pretended by Zhang Ran.

In the past two years, the detachment has eliminated a lot of devils, and the detachment will make full use of all the materials that can be used on the little devils, including the skin of the little devils......

Most of them have been made into insoles and soles by the villagers, but some relatively intact devil uniforms have been washed and preserved in case of emergency.

This time, it was six or seven hundred miles away, and he had to pass through the blockade of countless little devils, so Zhang Ran and the detachment brought a lot of devil uniforms in case of emergency......

This area has also helped them a lot, at least on the road to this side recently, when most of them put on the military uniform of little devils, they occasionally encountered traitors and the like, but they did not have doubts about their identities and avoided a lot of trouble
