Yang Tianfeng pursed his lips and smiled, and said: "It's forced to the head, I didn't think about it that much at the time, I just felt that it would be too embarrassing if I softened down." ”

Zong Baichuan nodded understandingly, raised his whip, and said, "Looking at the eyes of those people, this influence has already been revealed, and when it spreads, the young master will be regarded as having a good name." ”

Yang Tianfeng didn't seem to care too much about this, he gently slapped his leather boots with a horsewhip, and said lightly: "Sect Elder, how is the contact of the Self-Defense Regiment, that small team of less than two hundred people, can you still do it?" ”

Zong Baichuan heard Yang Tianfeng's displeasure, and explained with a smile: "They definitely don't mean this, County Magistrate Yao admires the young master's deep understanding of righteousness and loyalty to the country, but those people below still have concerns." But County Magistrate Yao said that as long as the young master raises the banner, the head of the county self-defense regiment is yours, and they will fully cooperate with the young master's actions. ”

"I thought that County Magistrate Yao could lead the self-defense regiment to stay in the occupied area, and he should be a bold character, but I didn't expect it-hehe." Yang Tianfeng smiled slightly contemptuously and said, "Since you are so timid and cautious, let's wait until I finish the big thing!" I don't know the combat effectiveness of the Self-Defense Regiment, so don't treat them as a dish, but I will miss my big business. By the way, Elder Zong, the Japanese will not send people to find out how many outposts they have built when they send outposts in such a place as Qulong Town? Where are they built? With that, he grabbed the horse's belly and ran forward.

Zong Baichuan looked at Yang Tianfeng's back and grinned bitterly. The young master's temper is getting bigger and bigger, and his momentum is getting stronger and stronger. Fortunately, these words were said to him alone, otherwise it would have caused unpleasantness. He secretly glanced at a soldier in the team behind him, and was sure that the conversation between him and Yang Tianfeng would never reach there, so he completely relieved his heart.

Miyamoto is about to leave this place and be transferred to Kaifeng, which is the main content that Yang Tianfeng saw in the letter brought by Koshiro Morino. In the letter, Miyamoto also told Yang Tianfeng in an extremely confident tone that the Japanese army would soon capture Kaifeng, and then take Zhengzhou directly, and then move south to Wuhan to achieve the final victory in the war against China.

Yang Tianfeng was very depressed, of course, not because of Miyamoto's arrogance and arrogance, but because he knew that the fall of Kaifeng was imminent, and the bursting of the embankment at the mouth of the garden was a matter of imminent importance.

He rode his horse to the river, looked at the flowing river, and seemed to see the neighing of horses on the embankment at the mouth of the garden, and the scene of countless soldiers of the national army running back and forth, digging and chiseling, digging and exploding. With a loud bang, with puffs of smoke and dust, a huge gap was gnawed out of the long embankment. Above the ground level, it is like the water of the Yellow River hanging in the air, rushing, roaring, about to break through the fence and abuse the plains.

Although he had long known that a great tragedy that he could not prevent would be staged, when this day was getting closer and closer, Yang Tianfeng still felt the urgency of the boulder pressing on the top.

The preciousness of time made Yang Tianfeng realize more profoundly at this time. Although he boasted to Zong Baichuan about Haikou, he knew that it was not easy to do the big things he planned, and he had to make preparations against time.

After thinking about it for a long time, Yang Tianfeng turned his horse's head and prepared to go back. But he found that just when he was immersed in his thoughts, two people came over, and not far away, Xiao Si was talking to them. Yang Tianfeng shook the reins and walked over, only then did he see that the two of them knew each other, it was Zheng Laocheng and the little girl who were chased by the devil just now.

"Young master, they have to come over to thank you for saving your life. I'm afraid of disturbing the young master, so I'll let them wait for a while. Xiao Si saw Yang Tianfeng coming over and hurriedly explained.

"Sir, no, Young Master Yang, thanks to your righteous rescue just now, otherwise we would have to-" Zheng Laocheng took a step forward, bowed deeply, and pulled the little girl again.

"Don't bow much, I can't afford it." Yang Tianfeng jumped off the horse, smiled and waved his hand, and said, "The matter is over, you better go home quickly!" ”

Zheng Laocheng sighed and said with a sad face: "Let the devil take advantage of the ferry, oh, the Japanese occupy it, and the two of us go back, aren't we asking for trouble?" As he spoke, he glanced at his daughter, a worried look.

Without waiting for Yang Tianfeng to speak, Xiao Si hurriedly said: "Young master, let them stay, aren't you buying a boat and looking for a boatman, they both have boats, and they are both good at making boats." ”

Yang Tianfeng was a little surprised, he looked at Xiao Si very strangely, and then his eyes swept over Zheng Laocheng's father and daughter, and stopped on the little girl for a while, feeling a little clear in his heart. Although he wasn't sure, he nodded and said with a smile: "It's okay, then you can find the manager on the dock to make arrangements, I'll go back to the garden first." ”

Looking at Yang Tianfeng and leading people away, Zheng Laocheng arched his hand at Xiao Si, and said with a smile: "Master Xiao, thank you for your kind words, so that our father and daughter have a place to live." ”

"Don't, don't, don't call it that." Xiao Si hurriedly waved his hand and said, "You are old, just call me by name, and I will take you to see the steward." However, in the future, it is better for this little sister to show up less, so as not to be seen by the Japanese and cause trouble. ”

"Okay, okay, it's up to you." Zheng Laocheng agreed.

……………

When he returned to Yang's homeland, Yang Tianfeng found that there were already guests waiting for him. When he saw Wu Yuansheng's smiling face, he also understood that Yan Baocai had been sent to express his gratitude for the position of garrison commander.

"Commander Yang, hehe, it's really difficult for nobles to meet!" Wu Yuansheng omitted a sub-word, took the folding fan that was inseparable from winter and summer, and greeted him.

"Mr. Wu, I've kept you waiting." Yang Tianfeng glanced at the boxes piled up on the ground, stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation, "Brother Yan has been promoted to commander, this is a great event, and Brother Yan is about to prepare a gift to congratulate him!" ”

"Commander Yang is polite, and I have to thank Commander Yang for this matter. Commander Yan specially prepared a small gift to show his gratitude, and he also believed in his words. After Wu Yuansheng sat down, he pointed to the boxes piled up on the ground with a fan, and said with a flattering smile: "In the future, I will need Commander Yang to say a lot of kind words and help vigorously!" ”

"This is natural, the Yan and Yang families join forces, and which official in this county and county has changed, they have to give us some face." Yang Tianfeng nodded, agreed very happily, and then asked with some doubts: "Why is Mr. Wu still dressed in civilian clothes, which is not quite compatible with the identity of the chief of staff, right?" ”

A trace of resentment flashed on Wu Yuansheng's face, and the pseudo county magistrate Wang Jinqing went through Watanabe's door, and installed his brother Wang Yuzhu as the chief of staff in this appointment, and Shengsheng took his position, which made him not angry.
