The Black Rock Cliff is located in the middle of the Guanmen Mountain Range to the east, although it is not the highest peak area, but the mountain is steep and the forest is luxuriant, and it is no accident that the bandits of Guanmen Mountain have chosen their nests here.

Liu Wumei, the female bandit leader, has been strictly ordering her subordinates to endure since the last large-scale exchange of fire with the Eighth Route Army in the mountains. She had seen the size of the Eighth Route Army in Hekou Village at the western foot of Guanmen Mountain, and knew that if the other party came to attack with all his might, her two hundred or so men and horses would not be opponents at all.

But Liu Wumei, who couldn't bear it, still secretly sent more than a dozen old and serious minions, disguised as mountain people, and re-scattered into the mountains to search the camp of the Eighth Route Army, and at the same time, she also went to Hekou Village and Xiping Village at the western foot to snoop. After the last confrontation, Liu Wumei already understood that the Eighth Route Army still had a camp in Guanmen Mountain.

The news that the minions brought back one after another made the female bandit leader feel hopeless.

They first figured out the camp of the Eighth Route Army in the mountain, which was a very wide and nameless canyon less than twenty miles away from the Black Rock Cliff Cottage - unlucky! The camp of the Eighth Road is so close to him! It's no wonder that the lustful Iron Hand of the last time ran into the female soldiers of the Eighth Route after sneaking out of the cottage - according to the minions, the Eighth Route Army was struggling to build in that canyon, and it seemed that they were going to create a permanent camp; Visually inspect their number at around one or two hundred.

The minions who went to Hekou Village to investigate, saw that the situation was basically the same as what Liu Wumei saw in person, the Eighth Route Army had garrisoned troops in the village and in the area around the mountain pass, and the number of troops seemed to be similar to that of the nameless canyon in the mountain.

The most troublesome thing for Liu Wumei is the information provided by the minions who came back from Xiping Village: the entire Xiping Village has now become a large barracks of the Eighth Route Army, from the Guanmen Mountain Pass to the east of the village, from the banks of the Qinglong River to the west of the village, there are their troops everywhere, including infantry, cavalry, and even artillery.

Liu Wumei's gang, the goal of robbing the house is basically at the western foot of Guanmen Mountain or even farther away, so they used to start from the Black Stone Cliff Cottage, either out of Hekou Village, or out of Xiping Village, which is also the only two mountain passes at the western foot of Guanmen Mountain that can be entered and exited, and the rest of the places are steep cliffs, even if they have excellent climbing skills, they also need to travel lightly to barely pass.

But now, these two in and out of the fortress are occupied by the damned Eighth Route Army. If the men and horses of Black Stone Cliff had not fought this vicious battle with the Eighth Route Army, they might have been able to go in and out in plain clothes, but after this battle, the Eighth Route Army had completely formed a bond with the cottage, and the vigilance against the cottage had also increased sharply. Trying to slip under their noses with a weapon is almost a dream.

In the past two years, due to the fact that the bright and dark business of Wencheng Baoyuan Restaurant has become increasingly prosperous, the silver dollars and cash collected are enough for the expenses of the cottage, and it is not necessary for the cottage to send people to go out to loot frequently. However, if you are trapped in Guanmen Mountain, others can still say that Liu Wumei, the female bandit leader, and her beautiful cousin will not tolerate it in any way.

When she thought of Baoyuan Restaurant, Liu Wumei was even more worried. A few days ago, the second boss just sent someone into the mountain to report that the ruffian leader in Wencheng who teased himself and his cousin Xiaoju on the street actually became a lackey for the Japanese and became the captain of the special team of the Japanese secret service in Wencheng. This shocked the female bandit leader: she was still worried about the bad luck of going into the city next time to bring people to find him, but she didn't expect that this hooligan and scoundrel already had the Japanese to support him! The second boss said that the traitor captain nicknamed Meng Big-headed, he and many of his subordinates were equipped with guns, and the guns were all German mirror boxes, and it was said that Meng's marksmanship was not bad. The most hateful thing is that now this traitor captain has set his sights on Baoyuan Restaurant, and he will take people to eat and drink for nothing every once in a while.

Liu Wumei looked up to the sky and sighed: It's really a shrimp play in the shallows! I want to be the overlord of the mountains and forests, but I have no choice but to take a ruffian in the market! You can't get out of the mountain, and you can't enter the city - even if you enter Wencheng, it's unknown whether you can kill that guy; What's even more annoying is that Meng has to eat white food in the restaurant - grandma's! All this bastard eats are silver dollars and banknotes that should have belonged to him! And he is threatening the safety of the restaurant's underground business.

Baoyuan Restaurant has a bright and dark business, the bright one is to operate a restaurant, and the dark one is to sell arms and tobacco, among which this dark underground business is more profitable than the bright one. But the so-called dark is naturally a business that breaks the law and loses its head, and neither the government of the Republic of China nor the Japanese will sit idly by.

At present, there are many wars, and the business of smuggling arms can be described as lucrative, and it is very easy to do, as long as it can get "goods" - whether it is guns or bullets - there is no need to worry about the next family to take over. In the previous stage, the second master once opened a list and sent it to the cottage, there are several villages and large households, to buy guns and ammunition for joint defense and protection of the hospital, the gun does not have to be too good, as long as it is a fast gun (generally refers to various standard military rifles), and the bullets are sufficient, the price is staggering. Liu Wumei's cottage people had nearly 100 such fast guns of various types, and immediately picked up ten old ones and sold them for an incredibly high price. At that time, the female bandit leader said half-jokingly and half-seriously to the master: If you don't go out to rob the house in the future, just by slowly selling the arms of the cottage, it is enough to eat for a lifetime.

However, it did not take long for the situation inside and outside the mountains to change dramatically. Right now, the Eighth Route Army is blocking the road in the mountains, and the traitor spies are blocking the road in the city.

Liu Wumei came to the master to discuss countermeasures, but after the confrontation with the Eighth Route Army, the master's sharpness was also worn out a lot, and he even advocated staying for a few months temporarily, and then trying to develop after avoiding the limelight of the Eighth Route Army.

The female bandit leader categorically rejected the master's proposal. How could she possibly survive for months in the boring Black Rock Cliff?! What's more, there is that unconscious cousin Xiaoju making a fuss around him. She was quite unreasonable to ask her master to come up with a coping strategy, in short, she Liu Wumei couldn't suffocate to death in this ravine!

In desperation, the master had no choice but to send a small group of men and horses to search for a new passage out of the mountain to the north and south. The eastern foothills of Guanmen Mountain are adjacent to the Taihang Mountains, which are not profitable at all except for a few poor aboriginal mountain people, so they are not in the plan. However, the northern foot of Guanmen Mountain was full of tall and steep cliffs, and after searching for many days, I couldn't find a suitable exit at all, but I smashed two minions into one dead and one seriously injured. So, going south became the only option.

The Black Rock Cliff Cottage sent a team of thirty people to march along the path to the southern foothills. From a few minions who are familiar with the geography of that area, we know that a considerable part of the southern foothills are also wrapped in the Taihang Mountains, and whether they can get out of the mountains and enter the plains has to try their luck.

Since the beginning of the bandits in the Black Rock Cliff, their way out of the mountain and plundering has always been to take the two mountain passes at the western foothills, which have remained unchanged for decades; In the plains outside the western foothills, villages are dotted, and in recent years, a Tongpu railway has been built, and the settlements on the edge of the towns along the tracks are quite suitable for robbing homes and houses. Therefore, the bandits have never had the idea of going out of the mountain in the other three directions, and of course, they are extremely unfamiliar with the geography of those three directions.

This time, the team of 30 people began their expedition to the south with great difficulty. As a result, on the way, they met the 7th Company of the 2nd Battalion of the Eighth Route Army Forest Division, which had just been routed by the Japanese, retreated to Guanmen Mountain and lost their way!

At this time, it was already the afternoon of the day when the 7th Company entered the mountains, and they had lost the marching route of the main force from the morning, embarked on another mountain road, and gradually distanced themselves from the main force of the 2nd Battalion. Wei Xin, the commander of the 7th company, ordered to go to the north, but once he entered the deep mountains with peaks and valleys, the path was no longer transferred by the will of the people, and the direction they saw often had no path for them to move forward.

Finally, Wei Xin felt that they couldn't go on so blindly anymore, once the sky turned dark, they were facing a huge maze, even if they turned to the next dawn, I am afraid they still couldn't turn out!

The commander of the 7th company ordered to rest in place and chose a relatively leeward ravine to camp. He thought: Since we can't catch up with the main force, we should go into the mountains to fight guerrillas, first find a good foothold, and think about it in the long run. You can't be tired and starve to death in this strange mountain forest.

Wei Xin's hometown in Shaanxi is not only a martial arts family, but also an Orion. During his time in the mountains, he had already spotted traces of hares, wild boars, stone pheasants and even wolverines with the eyes and smell of hunters. After setting up the camp and finding a frozen water source nearby, Wei Xin organized a group of soldiers to pick up grass and trees to make a fire, and another group of soldiers leaned on the rock walls on both sides of the valley to cut down broken trees and build simple huts to prepare for the night. Immediately, he personally took a few people with hunting experience and began to hunt wild animals nearby.

The commander of the 7th Company, who had hunting experience, did not expect that the first thing they encountered was not the wild animals in the mountain, but the bandits in the mountain.

It was the Black Stone Cliff bandit gang who went to the southern foot to find the mountain pass, and a few bandits who walked in front suddenly found the Eighth Route Army a few feet away. Most of these bandits participated in the last firefight against the Eighth Route Army, and they still remember the military uniforms of the Eighth Route Army.

These bandits have been instructed by the big boss and the master recently: to strictly prevent the Eighth Route Army from coming to seek revenge. Therefore, as soon as I subconsciously saw the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army, I first came up with the idea that the other party was here to search for and attack them. How did they know that the eight roads they encountered at this time were not at all the same team that fought fiercely against them last time! In a panic, the guns were shot indiscriminately!
