Chapter 48 Self-reliance

"I have said it before, since you are all students, your task is to study hard. [乐][Read] novels. 2 Anyway, we are going to Kunming, and we will send you to school then. Now you just have to

You need to eat well and recover. I don’t want you to get into trouble on the way. I don’t think you want to fall ill on the way. We don’t have many medicines.” Gao Hai once again brought his classmates to see Tang.

Cheng asked to train with Liu Shitou and the others, but Tang Cheng didn't have such a good face this time and refused directly.

Seeing Mu Lianshan looking at him in confusion, Tang Cheng explained the reason, "Our place is too close to the town. Shitou and the others are still young and they are just having fun. Yesterday I took the

You also know about people attacking the town. The locals in the town are already afraid of us, but that doesn’t mean that all the locals are afraid of us. I trained Shitou just to restrain them, and I was afraid that they would go to the town and cause trouble. We

After all, I’m not a local here.”

Although everything in Tangcheng is calculated for the worst, Mu Lianshan cannot say that Tangcheng's worries are wrong. After all, these locals dare not even intercept those students. "Anyway, it's only half a month. It's hard for them to survive."

It will be over once you get through it. When you get to Kunming, you can give them a few days off as compensation." About the Huang family's stay in Kunming, only Liu Shitou and Mu Lianshan knew about Tang Cheng, although they didn't know why Tang Cheng had to do so.

They were going to Kunming, but Mu Lianshan knew that with the Huang family taking care of them, they should not have a bad life in Kunming.

It is strange to say that after Tang Cheng led his people to attack the town, although the locals in the town did not dare to come to the yard to look around or wander around, the families who had been taught a lesson by Tang Cheng still lived in the town, but Tang Cheng

The counterattack that the city was worried about did not appear. However, Tangcheng did not relax its vigilance because of this. Instead, it quietly strengthened its vigilance. No matter it was day or night, there were soldiers patrolling the yard and the temporary camp outside the yard, bringing people along the way.

Two machine guns were also mounted on the courtyard wall and were guarded by dedicated personnel.

"Don't be afraid of the worst, just be afraid of ten thousand. As long as we haven't left here, the sentry can't be withdrawn for a day, especially at night. We need to strengthen our vigilance. Our people are precious, and it's not worth it even if they are dead or injured." Tangcheng knew these Dian Dian.

The people in the army knew the importance. What he was mainly talking about was the few students and the civilians who were following him. Whenever there were more people, something like this would happen. After living in the temporary camp for a few days

, some civilians had already secretly gone to the town, saying they were buying daily necessities, but Tangcheng knew that they were going to inquire about the distance to Guiyang.

Gujiao Town is actually not very far away from Guiyang. It only takes half a day to reach Guiyang City by car. Tangcheng repeatedly said that he would stay for half a month and then leave with these wounded soldiers, but those civilians did not

There are already people who cannot bear the hardships in the temporary camp and plan to part ways with Tang Cheng and leave first. Although no one has mentioned this matter in front of Tang Cheng, the civilians in the camp have been secretly gathering to discuss the matter.

Mu Lianshan, who was responsible for treating the injured, had also warned Tang Cheng, but the latter did not take it seriously at all.

"As the old saying goes, it's going to rain. If your mother wants to get married, we can't keep those who should leave, and we can't push out those who don't want to leave. I originally planned to speed up after passing Guiyang. I originally planned to

I was worried that those civilians would not be able to keep up with our speed. Now that they are all gone and we are the only one left, then I can travel hundreds of miles a day." Mu Lianshan mentioned this matter again during the meal, Tangcheng

Instead, he gave an answer that neither Mu Lianshan nor the others had thought of.

"At the beginning, we asked the young civilians to pretend to be soldiers because of bandits who might appear on the road. But if you think about it now, although the wounded soldiers in this yard are all new recruits, they are better than ordinary people. Just think about it.

In half a month of recovery time, we have dozens of real soldiers to protect us. Let alone Kunming, even if we walk thousands of miles more, I am not afraid of bandits coming to rob the road."

"That's right, it's not necessarily who will rob whom by then." Liu Shitou will always be Tang Cheng's staunchest supporter. Although Tang Cheng has given them a hard time during this period, Liu Shitou agrees very much.

What Tang Cheng said just now. If something happens to these civilians, they will be of no use at all. Apart from being a hindrance, Liu Shitou can no longer think of any use for them.

"That's fine. Anyway, it's not bad when we get to Guiyang. As for whether they will run into trouble in the future, that's their own business. We are not old ladies, and we can still control them for the rest of our lives." Liu Shitou said.

There was an argument, but in the end everyone agreed with Liu Shitou's statement. In the final analysis, it was just fate that everyone was walking on the same road. Since these civilians wanted to leave first, it was their own business and they couldn't really use it.

The gun forces them to stay here.

Following Tang Cheng's suggestion, Mu Lianshan and Fatty Ma began to mention the matter in front of the civilians intentionally or unintentionally from the next day. Sure enough, some people wanted to leave first. By lunch, there were already many people dragging their feet.

The civilians with their families gathered together and talked about this. "Sir Tang, please take care of you and the military lords along the way. Please read this carefully and please accept it. This place is far away from Guiyang City."

It's not far away. Since you still have troops here, let's take a step forward." Someone came to Tangcheng, took out a cloth bag with a big ocean in it, and said he would leave in the afternoon.

Naturally, Tangcheng would not accept the ocean sent by these people, but he did not stop them from leaving. Tangcheng even personally sent the first two groups of people who left to the roadside. After lunch, more and more civilians left the camp.

The more there were, Liu Shitou and others, who had been instructed by Tang Cheng long ago, did not stop them at all. Although they did not stop these civilians from leaving, the large cars and all the sundries purchased by Tang Cheng and others along the way had to be left behind in the camp.

There were fewer and fewer civilians in the camp, and by the time it was time to have dinner, the entire camp was already empty, with only large and small shacks left.

Gao Hai and the others had no place to go, so they could only follow Tang Cheng and others on the road to Kunming after half a month. Watching the civilians in the camp leaving one by one, Gao Hai and others' eyes were full of doubts. They didn't understand why Tang Cheng didn't

Stop these civilians from leaving. "Why stop them? Could it be that we have so much food that it is going to rot? It's better to run it all away. Master, I can still have a few more full meals." Liu Shitou was holding a bowl and gobbling down the food.

He didn't want to make fun of Gao Hai and the others for their stupidity. What he just said was from his heart.

"When we were trapped by rain on the way, all the dry food was given to the people by the company commander. We could only eat uncooked rice. Fortunately, the heavy rain only lasted for two days, otherwise we would have been

There are corpses lying on the road." Zhang Xiaobao didn't want to mention how he spent the two days eating uncooked rice. If it weren't for the people who didn't know how to prepare dry food, they wouldn't have suffered the crime of having to live on uncooked rice.

.

All the civilians in the camp were gone, and there were no more people that Mu Lianshan and Hou San could use. The four of them, Gao Hai, who had nothing to do, became handymen in the military camp, although Gao Hai never treated this dilapidated courtyard.

Although they regard them as military camps, Mulianshan and Hou San have already regarded them as handymen. In fact, Gao Hai and the others do not need much work. They only need to follow Wu Laosan up the mountain to chop firewood and prepare the necessary supplies for the mules and horses every day.

Qingcao, as for the sewing and washing of clothes in the military camp, it was left to Lin Ying and the two female students.

"Why don't they have to work?" Wu Laosan looked in the direction of Gao Hai's finger and happened to see Hou San leading Liu Shitou and others into the mountain. Liu Shitou and others only brought guns but no swords, axes or ropes. Obviously,

He didn't go into the mountains to cut firewood.

"The people in the town don't want to deal with us. How can so many of us eat the chickens and ducks left? What if we don't go hunting in the mountains? Is it possible that we only eat pickles?" Wu Laosan turned around and glared at Gao Hai.

, if Tang Cheng hadn’t forced these four students to him, Wu Laosan would have preferred to go into the mountains to chop firewood alone, so as not to have someone whispering in his ears. “Do you know this is called self-reliance? Those locals are waiting.

Look at our jokes, we have guns and bullets in our hands, how could we still starve to death?"

Wu Laosan was right. Tang Cheng proposed the hunting in the mountains. On the one hand, he could supplement some meat for the wounded soldiers, and on the other hand, he also asked Hou San to train Liu Shitou and others on their ability to march in the mountains. Tang Cheng

He didn't think about going to fight, he just thought it wouldn't be a bad thing for Liu Shitou and the others to learn more self-defense skills. Besides, there were fewer people in the military camp, and Tang Cheng, who was upset, didn't want to look at troublemakers like Liu Shitou and the others.

It keeps wandering in front of my eyes, and when I push it out, I am out of sight and out of mind.

Work can best train a person's mind. As the days passed, everyone was doing their own things step by step. By the time Tang Cheng was sufficiently injured to walk on his own, most of the Yunnan Army deserters in the military camp were already injured.

Things got better, and the originally skinny Gao Hai and others also seemed to have regained some of their vitality. At least when they followed Wu Laosan into the mountains, they wouldn't have to take a few steps to stop and take a breath.

The one who has changed the most is not Liu Shitou and the others who can walk quickly in the mountains and forests, but Lin Ying who hangs out with the two female students all day long. Lin Ying, who has experienced the loss of her family and the tragedy, is adopted as the adopted daughter by Mu Lianshan

, but Mu Lianshan spent most of his time studying herbal medicine, and did not have much time to actually teach Lin Ying. After only half a month with the two female students, Lin Ying had already learned to read and write more than 300 words. This

Mu Lianshan was so happy about the unexpected change that he burst into tears. He told Tang Cheng that he would send Lin Ying to school when he got to Kunming.
