As Tang Cheng guessed, Song Tieshan, who returned to Zouma Mountain the next day, brought back another guerrilla force of more than 20 people and 100 people. "Company Commander Tang, this is Captain Qian of the Ruanwan guerrillas, these are all guerrillas under Captain Qian." Song Tieshan took the gray-clothed man to Tang Cheng and introduced the two sides to each other, although Tang Cheng did not know where Ruan Wan Village was, but he was surprised by the survivability of the guerrillas of the Eighth Route Army, and in only a week, he had already seen three guerrillas.

Knowing that the young man in front of him was the captain and company commander of the national army, Qian Guangtu was slightly stunned, just like Song Tieshan first learned Tang Cheng's identity, Qian Guangtu was also surprised by Tang Cheng's youth. Tang Cheng and Qian Guangtu met for the first time, and they inevitably exchanged a few words of greeting and admiration, and when everyone sat down, Tang Cheng knew that Qian Guangtu's Ruanwan guerrillas had also been attacked by the Japanese infiltration troops, but fortunately, it was discovered early, which allowed Qian Guangtu to escape with the people of Ruanwan Village.

"I don't know the exact number of people, but one of my team members did see that they had two crooked machine guns and two small cannons." Qian Guangtu said carefully, but Tang Cheng laughed again and again in his heart, it seems that this Captain Qian did not fight the Japanese army at all. If it weren't for Qian Guangtu's team members who saw these crooked machine guns mounted on ox carts, perhaps the entire Ruan Wan Village would have been killed by the Japanese army.

With Song Tieshan's narration, Tang Cheng figured out the approximate location of Ruanwan Village, which is located next to Egong Mountain, between Huahu Town and Tingzu Town, and only across Huama Lake from Zhoujiaao. After discovering the Japanese army disguised as ordinary people, Qian Guangtu took his guerrillas to escort the people in the village to the boat and hid in Huama Lake, and happened to collide with Song Tieshan who ran to Zhoujiaao.

"Most of our guerrillas are natives, and they are also very familiar with the terrain in this area, although we cannot go head-to-head with the Japanese army, but we can still fight guerrilla warfare with the Japanese army by relying on our familiarity with the terrain." Song Tieshan's words made Qian Guangtu nod again and again. Tang Cheng had already learned Song Tieshan's ability to fool people, if it weren't for the people and things he was still worried about, maybe Tang Cheng would really stay and help Song Tieshan fight guerrillas in this area.

There are more people in the mountains, and the troublesome things are naturally increasing, and the eating, drinking and shelter of hundreds of people have tired Song Tieshan a lot, but fortunately, the bandits have food in stock, and Qian Guangtu also brought some food when they left Ruan Wan Village, and saving a little is enough for them to eat the New Year. But there are not only guerrillas and civilians on Zouma Mountain, but also one hundred and ten bandits who laid down their arms and surrendered, if they deserve to starve to death according to the words of the old Northeast, but Song Tieshan is not the old Northeast, and the Eighth Route Army does not kill prisoners.

"Company commander, I think let's go, drink wild vegetable porridge for a few more days, I'm afraid I won't be able to wear these pants." Liu Shishi, who runs around all day long, is the fastest hungry, and most of the bowl of wild vegetable porridge was poured into his stomach by his cooing neck, and as soon as he put down the bowl, he was busy tightening the belt again. Tang Cheng knew that Liu Shishi's words just now were complaining to himself that he couldn't eat enough, so he turned his head to look at Lao Dongbei with a smile, and the latter also had a dish. His amount of food is bigger than Tang Cheng and Liu Shishi, Liu Shishi is hungry and has to tighten his belt, where can Lao Dongbei endure it.

Counting the bandits who were trained by Zhao Baokun and Lao Dongbei all day long, Tang Cheng now has 10 more people, but now they can't even eat enough, where do they still have the strength to fight with the Japanese army. Tang Cheng also knew that this was not a thing, but the news brought back by the traffic officers sent by Song Tieshan to contact his superiors was not very good, after the Japanese Gao Pinbiao detachment captured Huangshi, and then sent troops to occupy Tieshan, Daye and Jinniu Town, if Tang Cheng insisted on going south, he would inevitably encounter the Japanese army on the way.

In this kind of terrain, Tangcheng and their small army could not play a flexible and changeable tactics to deal with the enemy, and the only way out was to go south along Xianning and Tongcheng to Changsha, as long as they entered the Guotong area, things would be easy to do. But the news brought back by Song Tieshan's traffic officers made Tang Cheng indecisive and difficult to decide, although there was a place to flash and move by land, but the probability of encountering the Japanese army was much greater, Tang Cheng They only had 11 people, and once they encountered the Japanese army, it would be a bloody battle.

"If you want me to say, let's take the land route, it's not that we haven't fought with little devils, places like Xiaojieling haven't kept us, it's just a scattered army of little devils, what else is there to be afraid of." Lao Northeast is the first one to approve of taking the land route, he is a standard landlubber, if he moves westward by taking the terrain of the lake, Lao Northeast is afraid that he will fall into the water and drown. Liu Shishi is also a person who doesn't know water, and when he heard the old northeast say that he would take the land route, he nodded vigorously.

The only people who were called by Tang Cheng to discuss countermeasures were Lao Dongbei, Liu Shi and Zhao Baokun, Lao Dongbei and Liu Shi agreed to take the land route, and Zhao Baokun had no idea, and Tang Cheng could only decide to go to Changsha by land first. As soon as he said go, Lao Dongbei took the others to pack up, and Tang Cheng took Liu Shi to find Song Tieshan. After all, they have fought the Japanese army together, and if they don't say hello when they leave, they look a little childish, and besides, Tang Cheng still needs a carriage to pretend to.

"What? Are you leaving? Hearing Tang Cheng's intention, Song Tieshan couldn't sit still, thinking that Tang Cheng hadn't said anything about leaving Zoumashan in the past few days, but Tang Cheng decided not to leave, why did he suddenly say that he was leaving, and he was about to leave. Qian Guangtu didn't know Song Tieshan's intentions, and besides, Tang Cheng and them were from the national army, so Qian Guangtu didn't say anything about Tang Cheng's farewell and departure.

"Although the Japanese army has occupied Jinniu Town, their troops occupying Huangshi are just a detachment, from Huangshi to Jinniu Town, the Japanese army cannot do a strict defense, we will always find a way to go south. Besides, the Japanese army should be insufficient at this time, and if we wait any longer, I am afraid that the road to the south will really be blocked, and it will be difficult for us to go south again. Seeing that Tang Cheng was obviously determined to leave Zouma Mountain, Song Tieshan could only sigh secretly, and had to say something like taking care on the road.

There are horse-drawn carriages and ox-carts on Zouma Mountain, according to what was agreed in advance, Tang Cheng asked for a carriage from Song Tieshan, and after adding the carriage he drove from Lijiapu, Tang Cheng had two carriages in his hands. "Company Commander Tang, we still have a lot of weapons captured by the Japanese army in Lijiapu, so I will give you another 10 spears and 500 rounds of ammunition, if you meet a little devil on the road, you will have a good self-defense." Song Tieshan simply did it to the end, and loaded Tangcheng's carriage with 10 rifles and 500 rounds of ammunition, and Liu Shishi's eyes narrowed into a slit.

Tang Cheng wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, he accepted Song Tieshan's kindness, Tang Cheng himself didn't look down on Japanese-style weapons, but those bandits who were in his pocket needed weapons. Now is the season of war and chaos, guns, ammunition and smoke are hard currency, if you meet the rich man who loves money like his life on the way, maybe these Japanese weapons can become the ocean. "Company commander, this Captain Song is not bad, and the guns given to us are all ninety percent new." Liu Shishi sat in the carriage and looked at the rifles while chattering happily with Tang Cheng.

Tang Cheng didn't have Liu Shishi's joy, "You know a fart, we are going south to enter the national control area, originally our group of people is easy to be misunderstood as bandits when they get together, and they are still carrying a Japanese rifle with a lot of water, you kid are not afraid that we will be shot by the national army on the road as a Japanese spy on the road?" Liu Shishi was taken aback by Tang Cheng's words. The combat effectiveness of the Nationalist troops was strong and weak, and the military discipline was also good and bad, and if it really encountered the situation mentioned by Tang Cheng, maybe they would really be killed by others as Japanese soldiers.

Liu Shishi was obviously not taken lightly by Tang Cheng's words, they had already said goodbye to Song Tieshan, they got off the horse mountain in the carriage, Liu Shishi who was sitting in the carriage still looked worried, and the unknown old northeast laughed happily after learning the reason from Tang Cheng, and laughed that there was always something Liu Shishi was afraid of. The group drove the carriage out of the distance, and after Tang Cheng stood on the carriage and looked carefully with a telescope, he let Zhao Baokun take the bandits to take the first step, and he and Lao Dongbei went into the woods on the side of the road.

The boxes that Yang Xiaotian hid in the bandit camp had long been moved elsewhere by Lao Dongbei on the opportunity of training bandits, Tang Cheng and Lao Dongbei turned back over a hill in the direction they left, and found those boxes from under a pile of rubble. Those boxes and the contents of the boxes have only been seen by Lao Dongbei and Liu Shishi, Tang Cheng is the first time he has seen these boxes, and Liu Shishi is the same as himself, these containing gold bars and the ocean really can't be called boxes.

"I've counted them all, 55 gold bars, 800 oceans, 28 pieces of jade, and 14 pieces of gold and silver jewelry, which are enough for us to buy land and build a house and marry a daughter-in-law." Tang Cheng looked at the contents one box after another, Tang Cheng finished reading one, and Lao Dongbei put one in the sack, if he wasn't afraid that those jade and jewelry would be damaged, maybe Lao Dongbei even wanted to throw away the box.

Tang Cheng had never seen so much money, he knew that the ocean was worth more than banknotes, but he didn't know how much so many gold bars could be worth, especially those jade and gold and silver jewelry. "That's a lot of money now." Tang Cheng subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of spit, just like what Lao Dongbei just said, this money is enough for them to buy land and build a house to marry a daughter-in-law. A thought suddenly flashed in Tang Cheng's mind, or he would stop fighting, and it would be good to live a good life with this money.
