Cui Rongxing also did not expect that the solution he worked out with all his strength and the risk of being shot by the Japs would end up being the capture of strong men to build a stronghold.

When he learned that the Japanese army was going to build three strongholds between Wang County and Heping City to ensure the safety of their logistics transportation team, Cui Rongxing felt desperate.

"It seems that the Japanese army is determined to abandon us in Wang County."

Although the Japanese army never lacked them in terms of military pay, even Cui Rongxing's adjutant understood that they had become cannon fodder for the Japanese army.

"It's better to have a good relationship with Zhao Zhiguo. Even if Zhao Zhiguo won't accept us in the future, at least let us be more dignified when we surrender."

Cui Rongxing knew very well that Zhao Zhiguo would not easily bypass people like them who fought against the Chinese army for the Japs.

As Zhao Zhiguo said, they provided information about the Japanese army to the Chinese army not to merit merit, but to atone for their sins.

Treason to the country and surrender to the enemy, turning a thief into a father is a huge crime. I am afraid they will not be able to repay this debt.

At this time, Cui Rongxing only hoped that when Zhao Zhiguo attacked them in the future, he would spare their lives for the sake of their past friendship.

"Leave the news that the Japanese army is building strongholds to Zhao Zhiguo's troops, and hope that Zhao Zhiguo's troops can make some reaction."

Cui Rongxing now only hopes that Zhao Zhiguo's troops can destroy the Jaap's plan to build a stronghold.

Zhao Zhiguo returned to Zhu Hao's camp with the supplies they seized.

Although Zhao Zhiguo led them in this battle, it was Zhu Hao's first real battle in Wang County.

Seizing supplies is a trivial matter, it mainly shows the new recruits to increase their self-confidence.

Before fighting the Japanese army, there was a story circulated among Chinese recruits that the Japanese soldiers were like ghosts, even with three heads and six arms, and could not be killed.

After a battle, the soldiers will be much more courageous when facing the little devil, because they also know that if the bullet hits the little devil, there will be bloody holes in the body.

However, things in Wang County will not end with one attack.

The seized supplies were all at the disposal of Zhu Hao. After explaining some things, Zhao Zhiguo decided to return to Changshan Station.

But before Zhao Zhiguo could leave, news came again from Wang County that the Japanese army would build a stronghold on the highway.

"Building a stronghold? We just robbed the little devils of two trucks of guns and ammunition, so they wouldn't have such a big reaction."

Zhao Zhiguo did not know that Cui Rongxing destroyed the entire Japanese transport team for himself.

If Zhao Zhiguo heard about this, he would definitely shout out to Cui Rongxing, you have the guts!

"Captain, do we want to take action?"

The Japanese army would definitely not build strongholds themselves, they would capture young men from all over the place.

"With Wangxian County as the boundary, if the puppet army captures strong men in the area to the west, you will beat them up whenever you have the opportunity. However, you must remember that your detachment does not have many troops and is not allowed to fight head-on. You will leave after the battle and you cannot be reluctant to fight."

Zhao Zhiguo would not show mercy to these puppet troops. Even if they gave up the county seat to Zhao Zhiguo, it would not make up for their betrayal of their identity as Chinese.

Once disloyal, there will be a second time. Zhao Zhiguo never believed that these losers would sincerely repent. In their eyes, the national interest was just a bargaining chip for them to enjoy "glory and wealth".

In terms of military situation, Zhao Zhiguo's troops and the puppet army are still in a fight to the death.

"By the way, we should investigate clearly what motivated the Japanese army to build a stronghold near the highway. Cui Rongxing is an extraordinary person. We cannot fall into his trap."

At first, Zhao Zhiguo thought that no matter how hard Cui Rongxing went, he would never be able to escape his grasp.

But this trip to Wang County gave Zhao Zhiguo a new understanding of Cui Rongxing.

In order to safeguard his own status and interests, Cui Rongxing is by no means a person who sits still and waits for death.

In fact, Cui Rongxing is indeed such a person, because in order to achieve his goals, he does not hesitate to attack little devils.

What Zhao Zhiguo was most worried about was that with Zhu Hao's ability, he might not suffer military losses, but in strategic struggles, it would be easy for him to fall into Cui Rongxing's trap.

But Zhao Zhiguo also had to return to the Changshan garrison. As long as their main force moved forward steadily and the detachments scattered from the main force suffered no matter how many losses they suffered, Zhao Zhiguo's troops would not be injured.

When Zhao Zhiguo returned to Changshan Station, Matthew Wen also discovered clues while talking to the miners.

"There are some abnormalities among some miners. According to Lu Zheng's explanation, there are a few miners who like to get together when they have nothing to do. They are even lazier when working than when Lu Zheng was training."

Logically speaking, if they have food, a place to live, and wages, these people should be able to work hard.

But apart from being active in eating, they were not active in anything, which attracted the attention of Lu Zheng and others.

"It's not surprising that among a hundred miners, there are some who are lazy."

There are hardworking people everywhere and lazy people everywhere. This is normal.

"But they look physically stronger than other miners. Logically speaking, such people should not be lazy. Our wages are calculated based on how much coal they produce every day."

Matthew Wen has clearly told these one hundred miners that they only have one month to work, and in this month, the more work they do, the more they will get.

The miners they recruited were all people without jobs and land, which meant they had one meal but no next meal.

If you don't work hard and save some money now, do you want to continue begging for food after you go back?

"Let Lu Zheng keep an eye on them and highlight the people with problems. If there are really problems, arrest them directly for interrogation."

Now that he is in their hometown, Zhao Zhiguo will not be afraid anymore.

"I'm just worried that they have obtained some information. Or they are just here to inquire about the coal mine."

If their purpose of coming to Anyang Town is just to find out the location of the coal mine, they can wait for the next Japanese attack and lead their troops to attack the coal mine.

"If the Japanese army cannot stand in Anyang Town, why not give them the coal mine?"

Even if the little devils occupy the coal mine, they can't eat coal every day to satisfy their hunger, right? The supplies from outside can't be transported in, and no matter how much coal they mine, they can't transport it away.

"My great instructor, don't worry about this. This coal mine is an unexpected surprise for us. Without this coal mine, we would still be who we are!"

If it hadn't been for the two men sent by the little devil, Zhao Zhiguo wouldn't have known that Anyang Town produced coal.
