"Squad Leader Niu, I didn't see that you still have such skills, I'm afraid you're also a veteran, right?" Tang Cheng's gaze fell on Niu Laogui's right hand intentionally or unintentionally, people who often play with guns will not only leave marks on the shoulder blades of the butt of the gun, but even the index finger that often touches the trigger will also appear calluses, Tang Cheng looked at Niu Laogui's hand, which was looking for the calluses of the index finger that Liu Goat said.

"Company Commander Tang, I've offended people now, can you take me with you when you want to leave." Glancing at Jin Mantang lying at his feet, Niu Laogui, who had completely lost the courage he had just now, asked Tang Cheng in a low voice. Niu Laogui's voice was not loud, but this small restaurant was too small, not only Tang Cheng heard what he said, but even the dogskin hat on the table next to him heard it, and he heard it very clearly.

The big hand of the dogskin hat slapped violently on the table, and the startled Heizi and Liu Shishi drew their short guns almost at the same time. "Niu Laogui, you beat my person, do you think you can walk out straight today?" The dogskin hat with a bowl of wine poured down his neck stretched out his mouth and turned his gaze to Tang Cheng, and then stared at Tang Cheng so directly, the contempt and provocation in his eyes were clear.

Tang Cheng motioned for Heizi and Liu Shishi to put away their guns, then took out a banknote from his pocket and threw it on the table, and said to the female shopkeeper who was shivering behind the counter, "This is the money paid for your plate, my companion is not very good-tempered, and he has caused you trouble." After speaking, Tang Cheng got up and grabbed the military uniform shirt he took off and was about to leave, he didn't look at the dogskin hat again from beginning to end, this kind of deliberate contempt was even more maddening than the provocation in the dogskin hat's eyes.

Tang Cheng naturally did this on purpose, he wanted to see what the dogskin hat was capable of, and what was the relationship between Niu Laogui and them, why did Jin Mantang point the finger at Niu Laogui, an inconspicuous veteran ruffian, first. "If you don't leave, do you want me to invite you to continue to have dinner here?" was glared at by Tang Cheng, and the others who were still sitting in the chair got up and prepared to leave.

"Wait, you calves who beat me, you want to leave like this, have you asked Lao Tzu?" Tang Cheng's face was overjoyed, and the dogskin hat finally couldn't bear to stand up for Jin Mantang. Spread out the slap with a smile like a fan, grabbed the dogskin hat on his head and slapped it on the table, the big man with staring eyes got up and stopped Tang Cheng and his party, and the angry Liu Shishi in the eyes of this guy once again put his hand on the holster, ready to draw the gun at any time.

"What the hell do you want to do? Say it directly, if you want to hide it like this all the time, just get out, and don't waste my time. Tang Cheng's indifferent expression made the Northeast Army soldier who stood up angry, and he yelled and reached out to grab Tang Cheng's neck, but Tang Cheng retreated back to avoid it. If you have something to say, don't do anything with me, be careful that I make trouble with you, master. Seeing that the other party was about to break out again, Tang Cheng smiled and slapped the holster on his waist with his hand, "Hey, I'm not convinced, believe it or not, I shot you with one shot, hurry up and get out of here, save me from watching you, and then spit out what I just ate." ”

Only then did the angry big man notice the two shell guns straddling left and right on Tang Cheng's body, as well as the military jacket that Tang Cheng was carrying in his left hand, and the collar was pinned to the rank mark of the second lieutenant. "What, dumb fire, wasn't it very powerful just now? This time the grass chicken was too late. Regardless of how the other companion who followed the dogskin hat accompanied the smiling face, Tang Cheng raised his feet and walked out, and the four of them pulled out their guns and escorted the three guys who came to find trouble out of the restaurant.

"Get on the bus" Tang Cheng ignored the routs who were mixed in the crowd outside the restaurant, and just asked Kuroko and them to escort the three dogskin hats into the carriage. The rumbling truck walked slowly in the exclamation of the onlookers, and drove in the direction pointed by Niu Laogui, Tang Cheng needed a place to settle down and recuperate, and Niu Laogui, who was familiar with the county seat, pointed out a place for him according to Tang Cheng's requirements.

Cyclamen is an inn, before the war, the first class that specializes in entertaining traders was doing very good business, but since the Nationalist army suffered successive defeats at the hands of the Japanese, the business of cyclamen has deteriorated a lot, and when Tang Cheng drove to the cyclamen by truck, this inn under the guise of cyclamen was lifeless and did not look like an inn at all. "Don't look at the cyclamen's place, but there are a lot of houses in his backyard, go to the back of the caravan they left, maybe you two trucks can drive into the backyard and stop." As an idea, Niu Laogui roughly told Tang Cheng about the situation of the cyclamen.

When Tang Cheng really saw the cyclamen in Niu Laogui's mouth, he was stunned by the thick layer of dust on the tables, chairs and benches in the lobby. It turns out that the cyclamen is indeed not a haunted house but an inn, and after Niu Laogui called the innkeeper from the backyard learned that Tang Cheng was going to stay here, he directly rented all 5 rooms on the second floor of the cyclamen to Tang Cheng for 20 fiat currency, and the lease period was half a month.

"I'll live in my own room and keep those boxes in my room." Jiujin was a rare domineering, and directly chose a room that he thought was safe to live in, and asked the two people under Kuroko to move those medicine boxes into his room. Of the remaining four rooms, the four of them occupied two of them, and finally one in Tangcheng, and Liu Shishi guarded the light machine gun and mortar to live in the last room by himself.

"Tell me, why did you find us? Don't tell me you're going to eat. Tang Cheng didn't pay attention to Liu Shishi and them, who were moving things, but sat down in the hall and asked Niu Laogui about the three of them. Ren is Tang Cheng, who was angry and turned his head to ignore the inquiry, and Jin Mantang, who was knocked out of blood on the table by Niu Laogui, was the first to speak.

"Who is this Boss Hu? Also skirmishers who withdrew from the front like you? Which unit is it from? Tang Cheng didn't know who Boss Hu was in Jin Mantang's mouth, so he could only ask Niu Laogui, who was sitting next to him. When he learned that this Hu Boss was not a rout, and that Jin Mantang and Niu Lao Gui were from the same army, Tang Cheng expressed his surprise. Seeing that when Niu Laogui taught Jin Mantang a lesson just now, Tang Cheng thought that these two people were enemies of life and death, but he didn't expect that they were robes of the same army.

"Boss Hu is a tavern on the surface, but in fact he is the largest bandit within dozens of miles around, and Boss Hu, who has washed his hands, is now helping the bandits sell stolen goods and resell tobacco and soil, and I heard that he has a good relationship with Captain Huang." Niu Laogui lowered his head and took a puff of cigarette and said, "Boss Hu once recruited me, but I have already entered the garrison regiment, so Jin Mantang and these guys who have followed Boss Hu have been calling at me all the time, and I have long wanted to beat him when I got up." ”

Tang Cheng couldn't figure out what this Boss Hu was doing since he had already washed his hands and stopped being a bandit, and he recruited Jin Mantang and their defeated soldiers, but since Niu Laogui had already expressed his intention to take refuge in himself, it was not difficult for Tang Cheng to know the answer. "Go back and tell that Boss Hu, it's not difficult to get a truck, get what I need in exchange, as long as I can get 10 horses, 2,000 shell gun bullets, and 30 grenades, the truck will be his." Jin Mantang, who was violently beaten by Niu Laogui, and his companion were let back by Tang Cheng, but the dogskin hat was left alone.

"I heard Squad Leader Niu say that you are a member of the Northeast Army and a machine gunner, and it seems that you are the only one in the county who is from the Northeast Army." took out the cigarette and threw the dogskin hat that had been given to him, and Tang Cheng struck a match to light the cigarette for him personally. Thinking that Heng Zhi couldn't avoid this beating, the dogskin hat smoked a cigarette, and simply snatched the whole pack of cigarettes in Tang Cheng's hand and put it in his pocket.

"Do you want to keep messing around like this, or do you want to have a nourishing life of eating and drinking?" Tang Cheng's question made the dogskin hat a little puzzled, "I mean do you want to join us, I am Tang Cheng of the 88th Division, and we are going to Sichuan to find our old commander to rest by the way." With me, there was food, drink, pay and new uniforms, and I had a Czech light machine gun, but I lacked a machine gunner. Tang Cheng finally said his purpose, and when he learned from Niu Laogui that this guy nicknamed Lao Northeast was a machine gunner, Tang Cheng moved the idea of recruiting this person.

"Squad Leader Niu, I know that you are more familiar with this place than we are, I still need you to help me do one thing, you go to the defeated soldiers you know in the county town, pick those guys who have fought and are not afraid of death, I also need 6 people, from tomorrow we will help Commander Huang train his garrison regiment." Without waiting for Lao Dongbei to agree to stay, Tang Cheng called Liu Shishi to give Niu Laogui some money, and first asked him to recruit those trustworthy defeated soldiers to come over to the cyclamen.

"Stone, you have a room with Lao Northeast at night, discuss with the shopkeeper by the way, see if you can rent a few rooms downstairs, and tell the shopkeeper to help us boil more hot water, and everyone should take a bath before going to bed." Lao Dongbei, who was sitting and smoking vigorously, did not follow Niu Laogui, Tang Cheng knew that this matter was done, so he told Liu Shi a few words, and Tang Cheng went upstairs to the nine-catty room.

"I asked Niu Laogui to help find someone, just get together enough 15 people, tomorrow I will take the sunspots and them to the garrison group, you and Shi stay in the inn to guard these medicines, these medicines are our lifeblood, and we must not leave people." It was indeed the best choice to let Jiujin guard these medicines, but also because Tang Cheng had no one available in his hands, he had to choose Jiujin.
