Chapter 1036: Continue north
Drinking alcohol is indeed delaying things, but in the eyes of Old Man Liu, wine can still have a benefit, that is, to relieve fatigue! People like Liao Fan who travel long distances, although they are young, it doesn't matter if they are tired of anything, but there is one point, tiredness will accumulate, and the more you accumulate, the more likely the human body is to get sick!
The old man, as a person who has come over, understands the truth of human health very well, his wine is a medicinal wine that has been soaked in special things, and with Liao Fan's amount of alcohol, he is drunk, and he has not drunk too much, he can guarantee that when he wakes up tomorrow morning, Liao Fan will definitely be alive!
Liu Deyun didn't know what kind of wine his father gave Liao Fan to drink, but he knew that the wine that his old man treasured was not ordinary wine, and the old man's friends didn't ask for it from him back then!
Liao Fan and Bai Chongxi were carried into the guest room to rest, and the two of them were already drunk and had no strength, so they fell asleep! The two of them have even forgotten that they are in Liu Deyun's house!
Until the morning, Huai Yuanliang came with two soldiers to find Liao Fan! Liao Fan and the others woke up and knew that they were unconscious from drinking last night!
"Brother Fan, the kitchen has already equipped you with porridge!" Liu Deyun got up relatively early.
Liao Fan finished breakfast at Liu Deyun's house before going to Old Man Liu to say goodbye!
"Thank you for your hospitality last night, but we're leaving!"
Liao Fan is not the kind of person who says goodbye without saying goodbye, especially the old man Liu is still at home, he ate other people's food and drank other people's wine last night, if he leaves without saying hello this morning, it is a bit rude!
"Hmm...... Would you like to bring my wine to a jar? Old Man Liu asked Liao Fan.
"Well, forget it!" Liao Fan looked at the old man embarrassedly, he was already drunk yesterday, how could it be a matter of taking it away today?
"Then don't regret it, you kid, I've never given this wine to anyone else!"
After saying goodbye to Old Man Liu, Liao Fan and the others left Beiping by train, and they were going to continue to travel north until Hu Guoshan and their headquarters!
"Brother Fan, I feel like I slept very well last night!"
Bai Chongxi originally wanted to sleep well on the train and rest, but he found that after getting on the train, he felt a lot more energetic, and the fatigue of running around a few days ago was also swept away.
Liao Fan thought it was his own delusion, but he also got up and moved his body, feeling that his body was much more relaxed than yesterday.
"Hmm...... I slept very comfortably yesterday, and I was drunk like that, can I sleep comfortably? Liao Fan didn't expect that it was Old Man Liu's wine that relieved their fatigue, but thought that they slept well yesterday, so they didn't feel tired.
The two of them didn't think much about it, the train carriage was very quiet, the train was far away from the downtown and passed through the uninhabited wilderness, heading for the mountains and forests in the distance!
There wasn't much beauty along the way, but Liao Fan saw a lot of dilapidated small houses! The Japanese have done a lot of bad things in North China, causing the people to be displaced, and ten rooms and nine empty rooms! If you don't look closely, you can feel a sense of sadness, let alone go to the village!
But Liao Fan believes that in a few years, this place will be restored to its former prosperity, even more prosperous than before, and when the time comes, it will no longer be so desolate when the train passes through here, but the busy people working and the incessant roar of machines!
Huai Yuanliang walked over and closed the curtains on the train very interestingly: "Brother Fan, the weather is so good today, the temperature in the carriage is a little high!" ”
The scorching sun was scorching the carriages, and it was really a bit hot for a train without any cooling measures! Liao Fan walked to his seat and sat down, took out a book to pass the time!
It seems that it is not far from Beiping to Changbai Mountain, but the train cannot go directly, if they want to go directly to the defense area of the Japanese army, they will definitely not risk doing so, and the little devils will not let them go! So the train has to go around, this detour takes more than two hours, and after getting off the train, they have to take a truck to go, after all, the railway in and out of Changbai Mountain is only used to transport supplies and troops.
It seems that we can't get to Hu Guoshan's headquarters at night, Liao Fan looked at the time, the sun is about to set, with the speed of the truck and the poor vision at night, the driving speed will definitely be very slow!
But Liao Fan's convoy was already very close to the mountain pass of Changbai Mountain at this time, and they couldn't find the village or the store in front of them, so they could only camp on the spot and spend the night in the wild!
"There are three of us in a car, and the rest of the car is yours, and as for food, don't we bring some military rations? Just make a bunch of hot fire, don't arrange a patrol tonight, just arrange two sentry posts. ”
Except for the people who followed Liao Fan who knew where Liao Fan was now, no one knew Liao Fan's specific location now, and this place was close to Changbai Mountain, which was considered the defense area of their army, especially in this barren mountain range, no one paid attention to them at all, so Liao Fan just made some simple arrangements, and he didn't need to be as heavily guarded as in the city!
They are all soldiers, not to mention that this is a barren mountain range, even a polar region with ice and snow, they can still find a place to sleep!
But their whereabouts were soon discovered, and at night, there would be patrols near Changbai Mountain, keeping an eye on the movements near Changbai Mountain at any time, especially to prevent the little devils from infiltrating Changbai Mountain at night and then raiding them, so the patrol team was almost non-stop.
When night fell, Liao Fan and the others lit a bonfire! At night, despite limited vision, the bonfire can be seen from a distance of several kilometers, and it quickly catches the attention of the patrol force!
Half of the patrol team was left to continue patrolling, and the remaining half of them approached Liao Fan's temporary camp!
However, when the patrol approached them, Liao Fan's guards also discovered their traces, and the two gangs immediately confronted each other!
"Shout to them, it may be your own people, don't hurt by mistake!" Liao Fan guessed that it might be a unit patrolling Changbai Mountain, for fear of being injured by mistake, so Liao Fan took the initiative to let others shout.
Sure enough, although none of the soldiers in the patrol knew Liao Fan, after they checked Liao Fan and Bai Chongxi's documents, they were very sure that this person was their commander-in-chief!
"Report to Brother Fan, we are on patrol duty, what are the instructions!"
"You continue to patrol, we will rest here for one night, and we will enter Taihang Mountain tomorrow morning!" Liao Fan said.
"Brother Fan, do you want to leave them behind to protect you?"
"No need, I have guards by my side, it's enough to have them!"
"Yes!" The soldier turned and left!
Of course, he would not let Liao Fan sleep in the barren mountains and mountains like this, and after leaving, he immediately arranged for the soldiers to run and report to the command headquarters and tell Hu Guoshan where Liao Fan is now!
Of course, the soldiers will not go to Hu Guoshan's headquarters, because it will take four or five hours to run from this to Hu Guoshan's headquarters at the earliest, Changbai Mountain is very large, and their regiment is a unit stationed at the western foot of Taihang Mountain, which is very far away from Hu Guoshan's headquarters!
There is only one destination for the soldiers, that is, the regiment headquarters, the regiment headquarters has a telephone, as long as the regiment commander knows, he will definitely report to Hu Guoshan!
When the regiment commander learned that Liao Fan had entered their defense area, he was hit with a spirit all over his body! He had seen Liao Fan, although he was not the first group of people in the original army, but he was an officer from Taihang Mountain!
"Assemble the guard company!" The regiment commander immediately ordered to assemble his guard company, and then asked his communications soldiers to immediately report the situation here to Hu Guoshan!
Before Hu Guoshan could give the order, the guard company had already gotten on the truck and set off!
"I know, let your head protect Brother Fan, if Brother Fan adjusts a hair, Lao Tzu wants his head!" Hu Guoshan was very excited when he learned that Liao Fan was near Changbai Mountain, even if he believed that his defense area was absolutely safe, but it was Liao Fan who came here, not anyone else, Liao Fan's safety was already related to the entire national security!
Of course, the regiment commander understood this truth, so before Hu Guoshan gave an order, his guard company urgently assembled and set off immediately!
"Brother Fan, there's a convoy in the distance!" Huai Yuanliang reported to Liao Fan.
"Well, I know, sleep with you, sleep with yours, don't worry so much!"
Of course, Liao Fan knew that this convoy was coming at them, and he really didn't want to disturb the local troops, but since they came, they would come, and tomorrow they also needed a guide to go to Hu Guoshan's headquarters, so he wouldn't stop at the local regiment!
The convoy did not drive directly to Liao Fan's camp, and when they were still two miles away, the company commander ordered to stop, and all the soldiers got out of the car and began to fortify! The company commander understands very well that the time is not early, if he bothers Liao Fan again at this time, I am afraid that his regiment commander will lose his temper at him when he finds out!
"Brother Fan, the convoy has stopped!" Huai Yuanliang paid attention to the movements around him at any time, for fear that someone would be unfavorable to Liao Fan.
"Lao Huai, can't you just rest for a while? If you're not tired, get out of the car and run, I'll still have to sleep! ”
Liao Fan shook his head helplessly, this guy was really a little nervous, when he didn't get in this position now, Huai Yuanliang was not like this, is it when his life is cheaper than this time?
In fact, there were not many places Liao Fan could go at that time, most of the time was going back and forth between Taihang Mountain and Shanxi, in his own defense area, what could Huai Yuanliang worry about? But now it's different, Liao Fan has gone to more places, and there are many unstable factors in various places, as a competent guard captain, Huai Yuanliang must always tense his nerves to protect Liao Fan's safety!
Even Huai Yuanliang knew in his heart that it was their own troops, but he had to be on guard at all times, just in case, if the other party didn't stop two miles away, but directly attacked them, he had to protect Liao Fan as quickly as possible to get out of here! Fortunately, those outside are their own people, and those soldiers also understand what their duties are, so although they didn't see Liao Fan, they are still dutifully protecting the safety of the surrounding area!
