When Su Xiaoyan heard this, she took the initiative to step forward and said, "Political Commissar, I am willing to follow Company Commander Xu."

The reason why Su Xiaoyan said this is because only through Xu Dalong can she contact Wang Xinmin. She can be with Xu Dalong, and it will be easier to get news about Wang Xinmin. Not only that, she trusts Xu Dalong very much and is willing to help him.

Zhao Gang was very happy, not only because Su Xiaoyan was superb in medical skills, but also because Su Xiaoyan had not officially joined the Eighth Route Army yet. He knew that Xu Dalong was good at inciting, and that Su Xiaoyan could follow him, and believed that he would be able to mobilize her to join the Eighth Route Army.

As for Xu Dalong and others in the process of action, they are very dangerous and have a hard life. Xu Dalong has a way to solve these problems, and Zhao Gang is not worried about this.

Zhao Gang said approvingly: "Ms. Su, on behalf of the Independent Group, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to you for your patriotic enthusiasm for fighting Japan."

Seeing that Su Xiaoyan was going to find Xu Dalong, Huang Wanqiu also said: "Political Commissar, I have been helping the health team recently, and I am considered half a nurse. I am willing to help Company Commander Xu and the others. Besides, there is only Sister Xiaoyan, there, and life is inconvenient. It is better for us to be a companion together."

Zhao Gang smiled and said, "Okay. I'm very happy that you have such an awareness. This matter is settled. You can prepare and set off with Sun Desheng and the others."

Not long after, Sun Desheng, Wang Chengzhu and Wang Xiaohu led the special service company, each with an artillery and cavalry platoon, plus Su Xiaoyan and Huang Wanqiu, a total of 98 people, went to find Xu Dalong.

Ken Fujiwara led Yiko to advance and marched along the sparsely populated mountainous areas.

In the evening of that day, they met a small mountain village. There were only five families in this small mountain village, and hunters, herb collectors and beekeepers lived here.

Ken Fujiwara and others also encountered mountain villages along the way. They all took a detour, but the location of this small mountain village is very unique, at the exit of the valley.

This valley is a must-pass road for the Japanese army. If they detour, they should walk at least 80 miles of mountain road.

Ken Fujiwara decided to cross directly through the valley.

They ate some dry food in the valley and quietly waited for the night to come.

It was dark, and the village was covered by the shadows of the mountains, making it even darker.

A Japanese lieutenant led a squad of Japanese troops to sneak into the village.

Hunter Liu Zhansuo is 28 years old this year. He is not tall, but his body is extremely strong. He has a square face, thick eyebrows and big eyes. There is a scar on his left face that was scratched by animal claws, which looks a bit ferocious.

He didn't get much today, he only caught two hares and was about to go home for dinner.

His long-term hunting career made his eyesight more than ordinary people. He was about to enter the village when he suddenly saw more than a dozen black shadows appearing opposite the village. He asked vigilantly: "Who is it?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a gunshot flashed from the other side, followed by a gunshot. Due to low visibility, the shot failed.

Liu Zhansuo knew something was wrong, so he shouted loudly: "Run quickly, the bandits are here!"

Before he finished speaking, a fire flashed from the muzzle on the opposite side, and a row of bullets came over.

Fortunately, he was already prepared, hid behind a large rock, and fired a shot in the direction of the flashing fire.

A scream came from the opposite side, and it was obvious that the shot hit the target.

The other party saw the fire at his gun and the bullets came in densely. He was holding a dirt gun, and he could only fire one bullet at a time. He knew that he could not save the people in the village, and if he stayed there, there was only a dead end. He had no choice but to roll and crawl away.

Liu Zhansuo hid on the mountain and hid. He clearly heard the sound of gunfire, and then the horrifying screams and shrill screams of men, women, young and old in the village.

Liu Zhansuo's heart was like a knife, his eyes were spitting fire, and he punched the rock hard. His fist hit many wounds, and he was bleeding, but he didn't feel any pain.

The Japanese soldiers massacred everyone in the village and carried the wounded Japanese soldier who was beaten by Liu Zhansuo to Ken Fujiwara.

The soldier was shot in his right chest and was already dying.

Ken Fujiwara asked, "How is he?"

Doctor Suijun shook his head and said, "There is no surgical condition here, so I'm afraid it won't work."

When the Japanese soldier heard this, he struggled to sit up, and a Japanese soldier helped him up.

He said, "Master, I can't do it anymore. I can't drag you down. Please send me to see Aunt Amaterasu."

Ken Fujiwara said, "Don't worry, I will take care of your family."

The soldier closed his eyes after hearing this.

Ken Fujiwara made a gesture, and a sturdy Chang Cao pulled out a bayonet and pierced the soldier's heart with one knife.

Ken Fujiwara and others handled the bodies of the Japanese soldiers and continued to march.

When Liu Zhansuo saw those people walking away, he hurriedly ran to the village. After running a few steps,

He suddenly stopped, and out of the hunter's sensitivity, he smelled the breath of danger.

He quickly hid behind a rock and observed forward carefully.

About ten minutes later, several black shadows flashed under the cliff in front. These black shadows were Japanese soldiers, and they chased towards the direction of the Japanese brigade in the valley.

It turned out that Ken Fujiwara knew that someone had run away from the village, and he also guessed that this person was likely to return to the village, so he left several soldiers waiting for Liu Zhansuo to appear and then removed him.

They waited for a while, but couldn't wait for Liu Zhansuo, so they went to chase the brigade.

Liu Zhansuo hid on the cliff and watched the figures pass by. With the help of the faint moonlight, he recognized that these people were Japanese soldiers.

He gritted his teeth with hatred, wishing he could rush up and kill all the beasts. Unfortunately, he was powerless and could only watch them leave.

After the Japanese soldiers left, Liu Zhansuo entered the village, and the scene in front of him made his eyes burst.

The village was full of corpses of villagers. They died miserably. Some were shot to death, most of whom were stabbed to death by bayonets, including his old father, his wife, four-year-old daughter, and two-year-old son.

Liu Zhansuo cried for a while, moved the villagers' bodies into a thatched hut, and then set a fire.

Liu Zhansuo looked at the blazing fire, knelt on the ground and kowtowed a few times, and then chased him in the direction of the Japanese army.

He vowed to kill these two-legged beasts and avenge his relatives and fellow villagers.

Yucheng.

Six hours after Fujiwara Ken led Yizi to advance to the team, the main force of the 216th Brigade of the 108th Division of the Japanese Army also began to march towards Qiulin Town.

This time the Japanese army's operation was code-named "Mountain Fuji". They first dispatched a gang of Japanese troops from Yangquan and attacked Jincheng, attracting troops such as the 358th Regiment to rescue, and then dispatched the main force of the 216th Brigade to attack the second war zone commander's headquarters in Qiulin Town.

The advance team led by Ken Fujiwara was tasked with blowing up the Fenhe Bridge and cutting off the retreat of the commander's troops in the Second War Zone.

Liu Zhansuo chased the Japanese army all the way. At dawn, he saw them reaching the northernmost part of Xiaogu Mountain, and further forward there was a plain area.

The Japanese stopped on the mountain and sat there to eat dry food.

Liu Zhansuo didn't eat last night. After walking all night, his stomach became even hungry. The mountains in northwestern Shanxi were bare, and it was winter again. He couldn't find anything to eat, so he could only tightly tie his belt.

He felt very tired at this time, but the anger in his chest supported him to continue to persevere.

Although he was just an ordinary hunter, after he caught his prey, he often went to the market town to sell prey. He knew that there were many Jinsui troops there, so he wanted to follow these Japanese people and find an opportunity to notify the Jinsui troops, destroy these Japanese soldiers, and avenge their relatives.

The Japanese army rested for about two hours and then started changing clothes.

Liu Zhansuo saw it clearly that these Japanese changed into the military uniforms of the Jinsui Army, then went down the mountain, embarked on a country road, and headed towards Gushan Town.

The plain is not as wide as the mountains, and the view is very wide, so Liu Zhansuo could only follow them from afar. While selling prey, he had seen the Jinsui army troops in Gushan Town, and he planned to report to the town.

The Japanese continued along the country road. When they were seven or eight miles away from Gushan Town, they turned on a country road, which seemed to be about to bypass Gushan Town.

Liu Zhansuo was not sure where they were going, so he had to continue to follow them onto the country road.

On the country road, there were also a small number of pedestrians walking around. The Japanese army's Yizi Ting army passed by them. When the pedestrians saw the team of the Jinsui Army, someone greeted them. Ken Fujiwara spoke fluent Chinese, and he also waved to them with a smile.

When Liu Zhansuo saw a pedestrian coming, he said anxiously: "My fellow villager, the government troops that just passed by were Japanese. They killed many of our fellow villagers. I have to follow them. Please hurry up and report the news."

When the pedestrian saw the scar on Liu Zhansuo's face, he felt that he didn't look like a good person, and did not believe what he said, and said, "What are you talking about? Those people are our soldiers from Shanxi, how could they be Japanese?"

Liu Zhansuo said anxiously: "I didn't say nonsense. They were Japanese. They killed my family. Please report the letter to the town."

The pedestrian was also an ordinary citizen. He seemed to believe but not, nodded randomly and left.

Liu Zhansuo was worried that the Japanese would find him, so he was following very far away. Seeing that the Japanese team was getting farther and farther away, he was worried that he would lose his followers and hurriedly followed.

He looked back while walking, but found that the pedestrian did not go to Gushan Town, but turned to the opposite direction of Gushan Town.

It was obvious that the pedestrian didn't believe his words, or that he had his own things to do.

Liu Zhansuo was so anxious that his eyes were about to drip, but he had no choice but to follow the Japanese again and prepare to find another opportunity to inform him.

The Japanese soldiers were very alert. They looked back while walking. A Japanese soldier noticed that there was a person in the distance in the same direction as them. At this time, he was the only one, and the target was very obvious.

The Japanese soldiers reported this situation to the Japanese Chief Cao, who was also very agile. He was very worried that the hunter would chase him, because there was indeed a person running away at that time, and that person had a gun in his hand, so he should be a hunter.

Although Liu Zhansuo did not carry a hunting rifle at this time, the Japanese Chief Cao still suspected that the person behind him was probably the hunter.

So, he wanted to verify it, so he personally brought a few soldiers to the spot to observe Liu Zhansuo's movements.

Liu Zhansuo saw the Japanese soldiers in front of him stop and felt that they might have noticed that they were tracking them, so he didn't dare to move forward anymore, so he pretended to rest on the roadside to see what those Japanese soldiers were going to do.

When the Japanese Chief Cao saw his actions, he was basically sure that this person was the hunter who escaped from the mountains, so they walked towards Liu Zhansuo.

Liu Zhansuo knew that he had been exposed, so he didn't dare to continue following him, so he turned around and ran away, preparing to go to Gushan Town to report the news himself.

He was in a mess now. He was worried that even if he found the Jinsui Army and reported the letter, the Japanese soldiers would probably lose their traces if they didn't know where they would go.

When the Japanese commander Cao saw Liu Zhansuo running away, they had already confirmed that he was the hunter. At this time, they were far away and felt that it was impossible to catch up with this person, so they went back to chase their team.

Not long after, the Japanese Chief Cao reported to Ken Fujiwara.

Ken Fujiwara frowned, stopped to check the map, looked at the watch, and ordered the troops to run and advance.

They ran out more than a mile, left the country road, and began to walk through the fields.

Xu Dalong and others, as well as Chu Yunfei's orderly soldiers, escorted Chu Yun'er to Qiulin Town.

Along the way, Xu Dalong and Chu Yuner rode together, chatting, and they were not lonely on the road.

Xu Dalong saw a village and town appearing in front of him, and he asked, "Where is ahead?"

Chu Yunfei's orderly soldier said: "There is Gushan Town ahead."

Xu Dalong said to Chu Yuner with concern: "I've been away for so long, are you tired? Let's go to the town in front to take a rest."

Chu Yuner was very well-behaved along the way and followed Xu Dalong's arrangements. She nodded and said, "Okay! I'm really tired."

Everyone continued to walk forward, and suddenly Xu Dalong seemed to hear something. He turned his head and saw a man running towards this side on the country road at the fork in the road that he had just passed, shouting. Because of the distance, he couldn't hear it clearly.

Xu Dalong raised his hand and held his fist, sending a signal to stop moving forward, and then he also held the reins of the horse and waited for the man to come over.

Seeing that the man was too far away from here, he said, "Monk, go over and take a look."

Monk Wei returned to the horse, then turned on the country road, and met the person who was running over.

When Liu Zhansuo saw the man in military uniform running towards him on horseback, he hurriedly went up to meet him.

He said anxiously: "Mr. Jun, there are Japanese."
