"Later, the Japanese took over that den and sent people to chase me, following the mule prints."

When Hu Bazhi said this, he smiled and described it with some joy, "Before I ran away, I saw that the kang hole in the den seemed to have exploded, and the entire den seemed to have been torn down.

Yes, the chimney blew out a large plume of black smoke before it fell down."

"So they escaped early?" Wei Ran breathed a sigh of relief.

"Must have escaped"

Hu Bazhi said with lingering fear, "Captain Zhao ran away, and I suffered a lot. The naughty little devil chased me for most of the night, and I was lucky not to be caught by them."

"Then you came back?" Wei Ran asked.

"No, I don't know where I'm going. After I got rid of the Japanese, I just went back to Langcaozigou."

Hu Bazhi said, "We didn't even go in when we got there, but I heard from Sister Hongxia that just as you were leaving, I caught up with you without stopping for a moment. I was chased all the way by bandits with special codes who had voted for Japanese.

.”

Hearing this, Wei Ran was somewhat relieved. He had roughly guessed that Captain Zhao might have already made preparations to move when he ambushed the group of Japanese soldiers at the Temple of Wealth.

He could almost vaguely feel that Captain Zhao most likely wanted to use his strength to force Shopkeeper Cao to fight the Japanese before Mao Dong.

The purpose of doing this is probably because Brigade Zhao has noticed that the location of their camp is known to Shopkeeper Cao.

"What's going on with you?" Hu Bazhi asked.

“It’s a long story.”

Wei Ran sighed and recounted all the things that had happened before.

By the time he finished telling what happened, the two of them had just rushed back to the Japanese abandoned camp.

Without daring to delay too much, the two of them loaded the necessary things and part of the mule meat onto the other two sledges, let the two black horses hold them, and left here in the wind and snow.

Compared with the pursuit and interception during the day, the dark march at night was unexpectedly smooth. Not to mention the Japanese puppet troops and bandits, not even a wolf was encountered along the way.

Being cautious all the way, Hu Bazhi led Wei Ran back to Langcaozigou before dawn.

Still without waiting for them to call the door, the iron gate, which was almost completely covered with snow, was opened from the inside - the person who opened the door was the little girl named Yang Shiyi.

"Where's Miss Hongxia?"

While Wei Ran was speaking, he had already joined forces with Zhao Jinyu to lift the still unconscious Zhao Jinyu with a piece of stiff horsehide.

When she saw Zhao Jinyu, Yang Shiyi's pink but dirty little face also panicked. She quickly led them with an oil lamp and whispered, "We

They took turns guarding the door, and they were asleep inside."

"Tell them to get up and move everything in." Hu Bazhi said.

"Yeah!"

Yang Shiyi agreed to Hu Bazhi's arrangement and quickened her pace at the same time.

Before they could carry Zhao Jinyu in, Miss Hongxia, who heard the commotion, also ran out holding the flower-mouthed roller in one hand, "What's going on? Brother Jinyu..."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "I'll explain it later," Wei Ran said, "Let's move the things outside in first."

Hearing this, Miss Hongxia immediately put the gun back into her arms, called to the Sun sisters who had just crawled out of the mine tunnel, and followed Yang Shiyi, who was holding an oil lamp, and walked out.

After moving Zhao Jinyu into the "inner room" of the mine tunnel, Wei Ran checked his physical condition first, and then said hello to Tian Xiaohu, who was also recovering here and had woken up after hearing the noise.

"What's wrong with you?" Tian Xiaohu asked with a frown, "Things..."

"Meet the devil"

Wei Ran responded while checking the other party's wounds, "Brother Cui took the things away. He... I don't know if he sent the things to the commander."

"You don't know?" The expression on Tian Xiaohu's too young face has become extremely serious.

"I separated from them and lured away the Japanese."

Wei Ran recounted their encounter again, and at the same time examined the wounds of Tian Xiaohu and the other two wounded.

Fortunately, both Tian Xiaohu and the other two people seemed to be in pretty good condition, especially the two wounded, who had at least regained consciousness.

While he was busy here, Hu Bazhi had already ran out, helping Miss Hongxia and others move the trophies they brought back into the mine one by one, and carefully disguised the outside of the mine.

"That's probably what happened"

Wei Ran, who had returned to Zhao Jinyu, was helping him take off his shoes as he spoke. Needless to say, the Sun sisters had already added a few pieces of firewood to the clay stove that seemed to have been built not long ago.

He also poured a bowl of boiling hot mule soup with oily flowers on Wei Ran and Hu Bazhi.

"Can he survive?" Tian Xiaohu, who was leaning against the wall, asked.

"able"

Wei Ran gave an extremely firm answer. After hearing this, everyone hiding in the mine breathed a sigh of relief.

After changing the medicine for all the wounds on Zhao Jinyu's body, Wei Ran took off his jingtao shoes and threw them to the clay stove for baking. He sat down with his bare feet and cross-legged, and picked up the still hot bowl.

He took a sip of the hot soup.

"What's next?" Hu Bazhi raised his head and asked.

Unfortunately, as this issue was raised, even the acting squad leader Tian Xiaohu had no idea.

"Wait... wait until Brother Jinyu wakes up."

Tian Xiaohu suppressed the confusion in his heart and said, it is true that he is the acting squad leader, but after all, he is only sixteen or seventeen years old.

In fact, let alone him, even the two wounded who were older than him were confused and could not see the way forward.

"Are you hungry?"

It was Miss Hongxia who broke the silence, "Shall I get you something to eat?"

"Sorry, Miss Hongxia"

Wei Ran was the first to speak. He was indeed hungry, and everyone really needed something to divert their attention and pessimistic mood.

"What's the trouble!"

As Miss Hongxia said, she had found several Japanese lunch boxes and filled them full of stewed boneless mule meat for Wei Ran and Hu Bazhi.

While he and Hu Bazhi were watching the clay stove chewing meat, Tian Xiaohu and the other two wounded men looked at each other, worriedly looking at the clay stove that was emitting fire, and secretly looking for everyone's way out.

In contrast, Miss Hongxia and Sister Sun couldn't stay idle at all, and they didn't have that much worry at all. After leaving the job of taking care of the wounded to Yang Shiyi, the youngest, the three sisters walked out carrying oil lamps.

Go and take care of the three big, hard-working animals.

"Brother Wei," Tian Xiaohu suddenly said, "Where is the map found from the young master of the Cao family?"

"Here"

Wei Ran said, wiping his hands on his pants, took out the map from his arms, unfolded it and laid it on Tian Xiaohu's legs.

"Go and see if there is a letter to Commander Zhao on Brother Jinyu," Tian Xiaohu said. At the same time, Yang Shiyi also lit a kerosene lamp and handed it over.

"I'll go right away"

Wei Ran wiped his hands again, walked to Zhao Jinyu and squatted down.

However, this time, before he could reach into Zhao Jinyu's arms, the latter reached out and grabbed his wrist.

"You..." Zhao Jinyu glanced at Wei Ran, slowly let go of his hand, and asked feebly, "Am I not dead?"

"I can't die for a moment."

Wei Ran moved away and pointed at Tian Xiaohu, whose face was illuminated by an oil lamp not far away, "We are back to Langcaozigou. Squad leader Xiaohu asked me to see if I have the letter your brother wrote to the army commander with me.

"

"Not here..."

Zhao Jinyu shook his head feebly, and then said, "In the hands of...Brother Cui."

"Where is the flag of the first guerrilla team?" Tian Xiaohu asked.

"In...in me..."

Zhao Jinyu subconsciously touched his chest, and then asked in a panic, "Nine Dragon Belt, my Nine Dragons..."

"It's not lost, it's here."

Wei Ran said, carrying the Kowloon belt with Zhao Jinyu's blood on it from the side.

"The first one on the right"

While Zhao Jinyu was talking, Yang Shiyi had already walked carefully to his side carrying a bowl of rice porridge made with broth.

"Let him lie down, don't let him get up." Wei Ran reminded.

Yang Shiyi nodded after hearing this, sat down next to Zhao Jinyu, scooped up a spoonful of thick rice porridge with a Japanese spoon, puffed out her cheeks and blew it to cool down, and then carefully brought it to Zhao Jinyu's mouth.

While the other party was eating porridge, Wei Ran also found the small flag from the ammunition bag on the far right side of the Kowloon belt in his hand.

When he saw the flag, Tian Xiaohu breathed a sigh of relief and asked after a moment of silence, "Brother Jinyu, have you met Commander Zhao?"

"No"

Zhao Jinyu avoided the spoon that was brought to his mouth, and said with force, "Brother Wei... led the Japanese away, I... I wanted to help, so I separated from Brother Cui, I...
