Ran roughly knew that Li Hai also had a younger brother named Li Shan. Li Shan had fled with his uncle to the pass several years ago and had no news of him.

The letter home that he asked Wei Ran to write on his behalf was for his brother, whom he had heard nothing from and didn't even know whether he was alive or dead.

He remembered very clearly that Li Hai told his brother in that letter where the bodies of his parents were buried after they were killed by the Japanese. And if he is still alive and has the ability, he must remember to avenge his parents.

The sentence "I don't know where my brother is" followed by the few words in the letter made the letter without even a delivery address look like a will filled with despair.

In contrast, the letter written by another wounded man was extremely long.

The full name of the injured Xiao Shen is Shen Baoying. Although this young man is only 21 or 2 years old, according to his own introduction in the chat, he was kidnapped by a gangster during the 14th Five-Year Plan period. Unfortunately, his family couldn't get it.

The money was redeemed for him, and the big shopkeeper saw that he was still smart, so he simply kept him around to work.

Unexpectedly, the bandit leader's momentary kindness actually saved Shen Baoying. When he became famous among the bandits and gained trust and was allowed to return home, he happened to encounter the Japanese setting fire to their village——

It was similar to what Wei Ran had experienced in Gaoliangtun, which was not far from the Temple of Wealth.

Impulsively, Shen Baoying took out the box of cannons that the big shopkeeper had rewarded him with and fired at the Japanese. However, he was chased by the Japanese all the way without any accident. In the end, Zhao Jinyu's brother Zhao Jinshan rescued him.

Shen Baoying's letter from home only contained names one after another, a total of one hundred and forty-two names, or names similar to "Fat Second Aunt", "Fifth Great Grandpa", and a given name.

It is the detailed address of "Shenjia Village" and a time node like "Mid-Autumn Festival in the 24th year of the Republic of China" that should represent harmony.

Suppressing the uncontrollable hatred caused by thinking of the two letters, Wei Ran shook the reins hard and urged the big black horse to go a little faster.

Perhaps it was too cold, or perhaps it was too windy and snowy, but the three sledge trucks encountered neither people nor wolves, so they left Langcaozigou very smoothly.

"There is a bright light on the top of Shopkeeper Cao Da's hill," Xiao Li said on the sledge truck, pointing to the dim light in the distance.

"The big shopkeeper on the hilltop now probably doesn't have the surname Cao!" Xiao Shen joked.

"What's your surname?" Xiao Li hugged the gun tightly in his arms, "Don't run into us at this time."

"Don't talk about this." Xiao Shen subconsciously tightened his grip on the submachine gun in his hand, "We have to drag a few Japs on our backs before we die."

"I've killed enough money," Xiao Li said happily, "I even made three extra bucks."

"I haven't collected enough yet." Xiao Shen took a puff of cigarette, "The special code is still short of 1,136."

"There are still many little devils."

After Xiao Li finished speaking, he sighed and said with suppressed despair, "When will the special code be finished..."

“I don’t know how the captain and the others are doing.”

Xiao Shen also sighed, as if even the cigarette in his mouth had lost its taste.

For a moment, all the three people could hear were the sound of the cold wind, the sound of falling snowflakes, and the crunching of horses' hooves on the thick snow.

In this desperate silence, three or two sledges were walking in the wind and snow under the leadership of Hu Bazhi.

A layer of frost gradually accumulated on their bodies, on the animals and even on the sledges, which took away their body temperature all the time, so that they had to stop every now and then to clean themselves, the animals and the sledges before they could continue on the road.

We kept walking like this all night. As the sky gradually became brighter, the wind that had been blowing all night stopped first, but the snow never stopped.

"We've been walking all night, we have to find a place to rest."

Hu Bazhi turned around and said, "The animals won't be able to bear it if we go any further."

"Where are we going to rest?" Wei Ran and Hongxia girl, who were chasing after each other in a car, asked in unison. They were all extremely cold.

"Front"

Hu Bazhi pointed with the whip in his hand, "There is a leeward mountain col ahead. Let's go there to rest, and then continue walking after we have rested enough."

"Brother Hu, how far is it from the Anti-Japanese Alliance camp?" Wei Ran asked abruptly.

"That's far away." Hu Bazhi raised his finger and pointed in the direction, "We're not going that way."

"I don't know if there will be a chance to see Captain Zhao again."
