Chapter 165 The clouds are gathering
"Are you from the National Army?"
Li Yunlong narrowed his eyes and looked at the man with a crew cut in front of him who had just knocked down three of his soldiers, and asked with interest.
"That's right!"
The man nodded innocently: "You are the Eighth Route Army! Thank you for saving me."
"Even though they knew we were the Eighth Route Army, they were still so ruthless!"
Several soldiers nearby murmured in low voices.
Just now, the three of them were ordered to call out all the miners, but as soon as they opened the door and saw the man in front of them, they were knocked down.
"sorry!"
The man apologized to the three people, "It was pitch dark just now, and I didn't know who came, so I thought about subduing them first and seeing if I could escape."
"You bullshit!"
One of the three soldiers said angrily: "In order to prevent accidents, we announced our names before coming in. I think you are a bad guy."
"Who knows whether what you said is true or not!"
The man retorted guiltily.
"you......"
"Hahaha......"
The soldier wanted to say something but was interrupted by Li Yunlong's laughter.
"I like you, kid."
Li Yunlong looked at the man with admiration and asked with a smile, "What's your name? How about joining our Eighth Route Army?"
"Sir, my name is Wei Dayong."
Wei Dayong saluted and refused, "Sorry, sir, although you saved me, I still want to return to the national army."
"What's so good about the national army? They only know how to run away."
Seeing that this man didn't know what was good for him, the soldiers standing by immediately said, "The Nationalist Army doesn't care whether you live or die, why are you still going back? You're just trying to please them but they are so cold!"
"Isn't this officer's words too harsh?"
Wei Dayong said coldly: "No matter how bad the national army is, it is still a regular army."
"If nothing else, our weapons and equipment are much better than yours. I joined the National Army just to have good equipment so I can fight the Japanese better."
"equipment?"
Li Yunlong smiled and said, "You are still a person who despises the poor and loves the rich. Okay, I won't force you."
"How about this, you stay with us for a few months, and once I get in touch with your troops, I'll arrange for someone to send you back, how about that?"
"Hehe, then I would like to thank you first, sir."
Wei Dayong thanked with a smile.
"Captain, something is wrong."
Just then, Zhang Dabiao, who was counting the Japanese corpses, walked over with a puzzled look on his face.
"There are more than a hundred more Japanese corpses. I asked a few surviving mine managers and they said that the extra Japanese came before dark this afternoon."
"Don't worry about it. Maybe he went to the countryside to harm the people."
Li Yunlong didn't care: "Hurry up and organize some people to put all the things here on the tractor. We will leave here in two hours."
"Yes."
Zhang Dabiao nodded, glanced at Wei Dayong standing in front of Li Yunlong, called the soldiers next to him, and brought all the miners with him to help empty the mine.
.................
After Zhang Dabiao left, Wei Dayong looked around and was about to get close to Li Yunlong when the guard Hu Zi immediately raised his shotgun and spoke alertly.
"Stand back, what do you want to do?"
Wei Dayong was so scared that he quickly raised his hands and replied: "Sir, I know what the extra 100 devils are doing."
"you know?"
Li Yunlong took out a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes from his pocket, took out a cigarette and lit it: "Hoo~~~ Tell me?"
Seeing this, Wei Dayong swallowed his saliva and said, "Sir, can you give me a cigarette first? I haven't tasted this for a long time."
"you?"
Li Yunlong thought about it, put away his Zhonghua, took out a pack of Daqianmen, lit it and handed it to him: "You smoke this first!"
Wei Dayong looked at Daqianmen, then at the Zhonghua cigarette in Li Yunlong's mouth: "Sir, my information is very valuable."
"It's up to me to decide whether it's valuable or not. You can only draw from Daqianmen now. If you don't tell me, you won't be able to draw from Daqianmen."
Li Yunlong said to Wei Dayong while watching the surrounding soldiers emptying the mine.
"Fine!"
Wei Dayong picked up the Daqianmen, put it to his lips and took a puff: "Hey~~this cigarette?"
"what happened?"
Li Yunlong asked in confusion.
“It’s quite delicious!”
Wei Dayong answered.
"nonsense."
Li Yunlong was speechless and said, "This is a high-end product specially made by my brother. Does Daqianmen know it? It's a British brand!"
"British?"
Wei Dayong scratched his head and explained, "Sir, I was originally imprisoned in the Jinzhong POW camp. A lot of devils came the day before yesterday and said they needed people who knew about the Eighth Route Army."
"They also said that our military commander has agreed to let us cooperate with them."
"As long as we can cooperate with them and find out the specific situation of the Eighth Route Army in Shanxi, they will let us go back."
Hearing this, Li Yunlong, who was a little careless at first, became serious: "Find it out? Can you tell me to what extent?"
"I don't know. The Japanese didn't tell me. Anyway, many healthy people in our prisoner-of-war camp were taken away."
"I also followed these hundred or so devils to several guerrilla areas of the Eighth Route Army."
Wei Dayong answered honestly: "In the first few guerrilla zones, we just looked for local guerrillas and fought a few battles."
"Then he asked me what the difference is between the guerrillas' combat effectiveness now and before."
"Is that so?"
Li Yunlong took a puff of cigarette, feeling the nicotine in it, and fell into deep thought.
Seeing that Li Yunlong had stopped moving, Wei Dayong did not disturb him. He held the Daqianmen and started smoking.
"Captain, everything is ready."
Two hours later, Zhang Dabiao, covered in coal powder, came over.
"understood."
Li Yunlong threw a cigarette butt and said, "Let's end it according to the old rules. Give the miners who want to leave some travel expenses. Don't forget to tell them who we are."
"It's been taken care of."
Zhang Dabiao replied, "Thirty people are leaving. I gave them travel expenses and told them that we are from the Shanxi Suiyuan Army and Chu Yunfei's men."
"Very well, let's go!"
Li Yunlong nodded with satisfaction.
Wei Dayong, who was standing by, wanted to say something when he heard this, but after thinking it over, he decided not to speak.
Soon, a group of more than 300 people, followed by 30 fully loaded tractors, left here.
"Okay, everyone's gone, let's hurry up!"
The engineering platoon leader, with his men, piled the naked bodies of the Japanese soldiers together.
Then a large mine was placed in a hidden location twenty meters from the body.
By the time Li Yunlong distributed the spoils to the guerrillas and returned to Xingjiazhuang, it was already dawn.
As soon as he returned to Xingjiazhuang, Li Yunlong pulled Zhang Dabiao to his side, gave him a few brief instructions, then mounted his horse and ran towards the brigade headquarters with Hu Zi.
