While the four of them were looking around, a big black man, two meters tall, with a full beard, strode out from behind the cave!

The bearded man saw Tom from afar, and he cried out with joy, "Brother! You're not dead! ”

As he spoke, the big man had rushed to Tom and hugged the fat man tightly into his arms.

This time it was Tom's turn to grin at someone else's bear, and he struggled for a long time before the big man let go of his thick muscular arm.

"Hank! You haven't even laid down yet, how can I dare to get ahead of you? Tom punched the big man hard and laughed out loud.

"When Schock's armored battalion was wiped out in Alkatraz prison, everyone rumored that you were dead too, but I just didn't believe it! If we had hung up on Fat Tom, who had nine lives, we would have gone to hell a long time ago! Hank laughed heartily.

Tom laughed a few times and said, "Lao Tzu is not as good as you say, be careful to flash your tongue, and you won't be able to drink in the future!" ”

A big man, a fat man, and the two of them sighed affectionately for a while, and then Hank turned his head to look at Anne and Bai Jie behind Tom, as well as the nuns, and asked, "Did you bring these girls back?" Which is your daughter-in-law? ”

"Damn! None of them are Lao Tzu's daughters-in-law! With that, Tom introduced Annie, Bai Jie, and Doctor Wang to Hank. It was difficult for him to introduce the nuns, because except for Helen, the other nuns could not be named, and Helen had never known Tom before.

When Tom had finished his introduction, Hank warmly beckoned them all to sit down, and told Emma, who had just returned, and the others to go to the back kitchen to prepare food and drink, and he wanted to entertain the guests on behalf of the guerrillas.

Hank is the head of the group in the city of Oakrantis, which is part of the Basel branch of the Glorian guerrillas, and is in charge of more than 200 people here.

Of course, not all of the 200-odd guerrillas were combatants, many of them were civilian and logistical personnel, and some were family members of military personnel, and only about 100 guerrillas were actually able to fight.

The guerrilla groups in the city of Oakrantis are not very militarily strong at the moment. They used to have an armored battalion with more than thirty mechs, which was the same battalion that Tom used to be in. However, after receiving orders from their superiors to attack Alcatraz Prison, all the troops were wiped out, and not a single mech could return. In addition, after the Vilia Imperial Army completely occupied the ground of Basel, the materials outside the planet could not be transported in at all, so now they only have a few combat mechas, and they basically dare not drive out in peacetime. The rest are the small arms that Emma used when they went out.

Not to mention mechs and weapons, the guerrillas are now very scarce even in terms of daily necessities, including food and medicine. So it's no wonder that Emma and the others occasionally sneak out at night, looking for an opportunity to get a little autumn breeze, some weapons and ammunition, and some food by the way.

Although the guerrillas are now short of food and clothing, Hank is extraordinarily generous today. In order to catch the wind and wash the dust for Tom and the others, he ordered someone to slaughter the only sheep in the team, and asked the kitchen to make a large pot of roast mutton and mutton soup for everyone

As soon as it was served on the table, Team Doctor Wang, who was already hungry, hurriedly grabbed the mutton and devoured it, and Bai Jie also grabbed several pieces of mutton chops with his hands and gnawed them.

When Bai Jie felt that her stomach was almost full, she unexpectedly found that Tom, who was usually not ordinary, had not eaten at all. Then she saw that the guerrillas such as Hank and Emma around the table basically didn't use their hands to catch the mutton, and a group of men just sat there drinking and chatting.

Bai Jie felt a little strange, she quietly asked Anne next to her, "Why don't they eat it?" Don't poison us, right? ”

Anne didn't eat much, she saw Bai Jie ask her about this, and pointed to a corner on the edge of the big cave.

Bai Jie followed her fingers and looked over, and saw more than a dozen ragged children, estimated to be less than ten years old, hiding in that corner, staring at the table here. Behind the children, there were seven or eight old women, all pressing on the children, not allowing them to come this way.

"Why are there children here?" In the past, Bai Jie thought that the guerrillas were all bandits who could only fight, but she never thought that there were old people and children here.

"It's all orphans, some of them we picked up from the outside recently, and some of them are orphans in the team." Emma, who was sitting next to Anne, heard them talk about it and interjected.

"It's a pitiful look." As she spoke, Bai Jie took a large plate, grabbed some mutton and put it in it, and brought it to the children.

A burst of cheers erupted in the corner of the Great Cave!

"This is a puppet government?" Hank looked at Bai Jie, who was handing out lamb to the children, and asked Tom with a smile.

Just now, Tom had quietly told Hank the identities of Bai Jie and Team Doctor Wang, and he didn't want Hank to find out that he would be too concerned in the future.

"Well, but people shouldn't be bad." Tom held a cigarette in one hand and a wine glass in the other, and looked at Bai Jie and the children.

"If it was bad enough, you would have slaughtered it a long time ago, would you bring it back?" Hank sneered.

"Smack!" Hearing Hank's words, the team doctor next to him was so frightened that he dropped the bones in his mouth on the table.

"Don't be afraid, if I wanted to kill you, I would have done it a long time ago." With that, Tom stuffed the bone back into the hand of the team doctor, poured him another glass of wine, and said with a smile: "We used to be drinking friends, and we will still be in the future!" ”

Seeing Tom boldly tilt his neck and drink the wine in his cup, Doctor Wang glanced at him gratefully, and also raised his glass and drank it all!

At this time, Bai Jie came back from the children with an empty plate, and she walked to the table and did not sit down, but continued to grab the mutton in the big basin.

"I'll help you!" Anne also stood up and helped Bai Jie fill the plate with mutton. Then the two girls each carried a plate and distributed the mutton to the children who had not yet eaten and the old man who had not been willing to eat just now.

"Let's go and help too." Emma said to several guerrilla backbones around her.

So the roast lamb feast turned into a lamb sharing competition, and soon there was not much lamb left on the table.

Tom also grabbed a few lamb chops and handed them to the nuns who had been sitting silently beside them.

"We can't eat meat." Helen declined the fat man's kindness.

"If you don't eat Lao Tzu, I'll rape you tonight!" Tom deliberately viciously said.

The fat man's words finally touched the nuns, who obediently stretched out their trembling hands, and each of them grabbed a small piece of lamb chops and chewed it.

Only Helen didn't, she stared at Tom stubbornly, with an expression that would rather die than give in.

In fact, Tom just wanted to scare these nuns, after all, there is not much to eat now, and if he picks and chooses, it will be really difficult to serve.

Seeing that Helen resolutely refused to eat, it was impossible for the fat man to really rape her. He just pulled Helen up from his chair and pushed her towards the corner of the big hole.

Behind him, seeing that the vicious fat man had escorted Helen, who did not eat mutton, away, the nuns ate the lamb chops at a much faster speed.

Tom took Helen into a corner surrounded by the children, and said to an old woman, "Go and get her something to eat, no meat." ”

After saying that, the fat man turned back to the table and continued to drink.

Helen turned her head to look at Tom's back, took a deep look, and then turned and followed the old woman.

After Emma and the others distributed the mutton and mutton soup in the big pot to the old and weak women and children in the back, the mutton feast was basically over.

Tom and Hank sat at the table, and while drinking, they chatted for a while, and told each other about their experiences in the days since they were separated.

At this time, it was almost dawn outside, Bai Jie and Anne were sitting next to each other yawning, and the Wang team doctor had fallen asleep on the table after he was full of wine.
