The second set of rural feelings five, down the mountain to protect the treasure

  Xiao Yu led Zhan Biao to a house foundation and stopped in his tracks. It was clear that this was a large three-entry courtyard, and Zhan Biao deliberately...

  "Whose family is this? Why are you so familiar?"

  Dai Yu patted Zhang Wuji on the back and said, "This is where Xiao Yu insisted on marrying you, now it's called stealing a peek!"

  Xiao Yu's face turned red as she pointed at Da Yuan and said: "Hmph, still calling yourselves masters? Those years you always asked me: Did you faint? Were you really...

  "Fainted?"

  Zhan Dongdong couldn't help but laugh when he turned his face, and Yingzi also vaguely said to Zhan Dongdong: "It's a bit like the phrase 'Did you smoke? Did you really smoke?' from that Northeastern sketch about being a psychologist."

  As San De and Si De were drinking together with Lang, two people stood up in the carriage, who turned out to be Xiao Bao and Xiao Yu.

  Looking at Xiaoyu, who was scared by the four virtues and hugged Xiaobao tightly, saying "Oh my god", Zhan Biao stood on the footboard and said with a cry: "When did you guys come up? Just now I heard the movement in the car and thought, there are no living pigs or sheep."

  Xiao Yu heard and raised her hand to hit a potato. Xiao Bao pretended to scold and said: "We haven't even gotten off the bus yet, you're already driving... what are you, a wolf or a dog? Don't be afraid, little jade, sister is here." San De saw that they were two beauties and immediately became polite. Qiang Zi and Cheng Yi looked at Xiao Feng with joyful eyes from the side.

  San De looked at Si De, who was still shouting tirelessly. In a hurry, he kicked one foot away. Xiaoyu took a look and raised his hand to throw a potato at San De: "Don't kick it, only it is welcoming us." The implication was that someone was not welcome. What's strange is that Si De seemed to feel that Xiaoyu was protecting himself, and immediately stopped shouting too.

  Although Zhang Biao wanted to spend more time with Xiaobao and Xiaoyu, he thought of the military secrets in the cave and decided to send them back. Xiaobao also understood Zhang Biao's inconvenience and advised Xiaoyu not to go up the mountain. But how could Xiaobao come for nothing? She got off the car and stretched out her hand to ask Zhang Biao for a book. Zhang Biao blushed and called Cheng Yi aside, whispering a few words in his ear. Cheng Yi blinked his eyes with an incredulous expression and ran back into the cave.

  Several people were busy unloading the car, and San De was so happy that his mouth couldn't close. At this time, Xiao Yu had already become familiar with Si De, who seemed to accept and befriend Xiao Yu very much, gently lying at Xiao Yu's feet and letting Xiao Yu pet her, it was unknown what kind of fate they had between them. Later, San De guessed that this might be the first time Si De came into contact with a female creature in the world.

  Cheng Yi ran back, followed by Liu Yang, Chang Jie and Er Zhu Zi. It seems that only Zheng Wen was left on the mountain top to stand guard. When Liu Yang and the others saw so many supplies and a car, they were overjoyed. Looking at this, it must have been these two girls who sent them over. What Cheng Yi wanted was worth giving.

  Zhan Biao handed the small package that Cheng Yi had passed over to Xiao Bao. Xiaoyu snatched it open and exclaimed "Oh no!", only to find out that aside from a book, there were also two bars of soap, two cans of food, and two wristwatches inside.

  Zhan Biao didn't bother with polite talk, and said to Xiao Feng: "You guys quickly move the stuff back into the cave, and just like our family's sweet potato cellar, immediately build an underground garage to hide the truck. I'll send them back." Then he took off San De's speedometer and mounted his motorcycle, gesturing for Xiao Bao to sit behind him and Xiao Yu to sit in the sidecar. Zhan Biao revved up the engine and sped off with a "Vroom". The warm fragrance of the girls' bodies filled his nostrils, making him feel extremely pleased and satisfied.

  Zhan Biao renovated the cave after returning from Kai Shan Town. He sealed the entrance of the cave on the mountain wall from the inside, moved the campsite near the entrance to a spacious area at the intersection of three caves inside, and then sealed off the tunnel leading to the mountain wall. All weapons and equipment were placed inside, divided into three sections: weapon zone, ammunition zone, and equipment zone. Liu Yang was appointed as the quartermaster to manage the warehouse, and an account book was set up for all weapons and equipment. Zhan Biao emphasized that no one except the nine of them was allowed to know about the cave. Only four Czech machine guns, two 92-style heavy machine guns, five Czech machine guns, and three submachine guns were placed in the outer area, with the same number of equipment as a machine gun company.

  Thanks to the truckload of vegetables they pulled back from Kao Shan town, they got through the lean months and their marksmanship improved significantly. The nine short-barreled guns all reached the level of piercing a hundred paces, Liu Yang and Chang Jie, who had been practicing with their heads down, unexpectedly became expert marksmen with rifles, sometimes even competing in disassembling and drawing guns. The cultural level of the nine also made great progress, each person learned more than 500 Chinese characters, and Cheng Yi always said that his ink was running out quickly.

  Before long, it was summer. During this time, Zhang Biao went to Kao Shan town twice and learned that Gui teacher was now the secretary of the Communist Party's district committee, and Dan Tong was the captain of the anti-Japanese guerrilla squad. They worked together with a battalion of regular New Fourth Army troops, active in dozens of villages within a radius of hundreds of miles. More than a dozen young men over 20 years old from Kao Shan town joined the guerrilla team. Because there were not enough weapons, more than twenty young people did not join the guerrilla team, including Er Min and Kou Zi.

  Zhan Biao and Xiao Bao and Xiao Yu were also good friends who would meet every time they entered the village. One time, Xiao Bao casually mentioned his birthday, and Zhan Biao was so excited that he let out a loud shout. It turned out that Xiao Bao was born on March 16th of the Republic of China (1920), which was the 26th day of the first lunar month. Zhan Biao was born on March 8th of the Republic of China (1918), also the 26th day of the first lunar month, and their birthdays coincided! Xiao Yu didn't believe it, so Zhan Biao hastily said: "You go ask Old Yuan to check, I was born on the third day after Jingzhe." Then Xiao Bao and Zhan Biao agreed to spend their next birthday together.

  Zhan Biao also knew that Xiaoyu had a childhood sweetheart boyfriend named Zhai Dashun, who ran away to join the army a year ago but never heard from him again.

  The mountain occupied by the Eighth Route Army is located in the north of Kao Shan town. The Japanese invaders coming from the north can observe and notify the village through beacon fires and tree signals, but those coming from the south, the county seat, cannot be seen.

  On a day when the July heat was sweltering, San De was on duty at the top of the mountain, accompanied by his loyal companion Si De. As soon as Si De arrived to take over from San De's watch, he became excited like it was New Year's, jumping around San De and refusing to leave his side, even when they spotted a pack of wolves. Just after noon, Si De suddenly let out a loud bark towards the direction of Kao Shan town. San De followed his gaze and saw smoke rising from the town, so he immediately called Zhan Biao in the cave to report what he had seen. Without saying a word, Zhan Biao rushed out of the cave like a shooting star, using binoculars to observe the scene. It seemed that the smoke was coming from Xiao Bao's house, but it was unclear whether it was a fire or someone intentionally setting off fireworks.

  Zhan Biao immediately gave the order, and he and Qiangzi first entered the village to investigate the situation. Xiao Feng led Liu Yang and Zhengwen to follow up afterwards. The equipment of the five people was one Czech light machine gun and one pistol per person. They used the light machine guns as submachine guns.

  The five of them set off at the same time, but Zhang Biao and Qiangzi sped away on their motorcycles, while Xiaofeng and the other three jogged along.

  Zhan Biao was wearing a National Army uniform, while Qiangzi usually wore a Japanese military uniform in the cave and didn't have time to change before leaving. Zhan Biao said it's also good this way, neither the devils nor the guerrillas will easily shoot at us.

  Xiao Bao's house is located slightly later in the village, and Zhan Biao didn't go to the village entrance, but instead drove directly to the back of the village along the main road. As soon as they got out of the car, the two rushed towards Xiao Bao's house. As soon as they entered the village, Zhan Biao felt that something was wrong. The village was quiet, and even the children who usually played on the street were nowhere to be seen. Zhan Biao's heart hung up immediately, and his vigilance with Qiangzi also increased. The two alternated crouching and quickly approached Xiao Bao, aka Yuan Bo's house.

  As soon as he limped past the intersection near Yuan Bo's house, he discovered the situation. At the entrance of Yuan Bo's three courtyard doors, two Japanese soldiers were standing, and inside the first courtyard, there was a commotion. Zhan Biao quickly climbed up a big tree by the side of the road, and from within the dense foliage, he got a clear view of the situation. About 40 or 50 Japanese soldiers had rounded up hundreds of villagers into the front yard of Yuan Bo's house, where they were setting up three machine guns facing the crowd. A Japanese lieutenant and a traitorous interpreter were shouting something, while Yuan Bo was standing in front with his waist bent.

  Zhan Biao jumped down from the tree and immediately led Qiangzi to the backyard, where Xiao Bao's bedroom was located. Sometimes, Xiaoyu also stayed here.

  As soon as I arrived at the backyard wall, I heard Xiaobao's scolding voice and Xiaoyu's shrill cry.
