Yu Chenglong went to He Laogui's secret contact point overnight and saw that his mother and daughter-in-law Fengying had already moved here. But the father-in-law, his wife, his wife, and his sister-in-law's family didn't come, and they still lived in Duanlonggang, where Yu Chenglong was born.
Fengying told Yu Chenglong that her sister-in-law was going to remarry and it had been decided. She took a child there and left her eldest grandson with her parents.
My father and mother didn't want to leave Duanlonggang, saying they were guarding the house for us. The old couple leads Tie Dan to live together, and Tie Dan still has to go to school. She and her mother missed Jackie Chan, so they moved here soon.
Yu Chenglong asked Deputy Squadron Leader Jiao to contact the other two brothers and told them to continue reconnaissance and go back to the mountain after getting a good idea of the situation. Don't wait for him. He said he would go back to the mountain directly in a few days.
Ask Jiao Cheng to tell Deputy Captain Zhang in the mountains that they cannot act without authorization. Even if there is an order from above, he must delay it until he returns home before leading the team to fight in the mountains.
After sending Jiao Cheng away, Shan Ju and Fengying were busy cooking, saying that when Yu Chenglong came back, the two families would have a good reunion dinner together.
After the meal was ready, the five of them gathered together and had a happy reunion dinner. It was of course a great time, especially since Yu Chenglong had not seen his mother and daughter-in-law for several years.
After dinner, Yu Chenglong and Fengying chatted with their mother in her room for half the night, and told her mother about his trip to Harbin to meet his brother.
Mother was very satisfied that Jackie Chan went to visit his brother before returning home. It was almost midnight, and after repeated urging from mother, Yu Chenglong and Feng Ying returned to their room to sleep.
When he got up the next day, Yu Chenglong asked He Laogui to go out and ask around to see if he could buy a piece of land and grow food so that his family could hide here for a long time.
At the same time, He Laogui was asked to tell Shan Xing and his wife in the city to be prepared to lurk for a long time, saying that unless there were special circumstances, these two secret contact points would not be used in the mountains.
Yu Chenglong stayed at home for a month. When the ice and snow all melted and the farmers were ready to plant the fields, Yu Chenglong returned to the secret camp in the mountains.
This month was the longest and happiest time that Yu Chenglong had lived with his mother and daughter-in-law after he left home. His mother and daughter-in-law were happy all day long.
Yu Chenglong, who was in a good mood, rushed to the mountains eagerly. He wanted to take advantage of this upcoming great season to lead his brothers in a big fight.
As soon as they entered the mountain, Deputy Captain Zhang was eager to ask for instructions and report. He said that the brothers in the mountain were already very energetic and were gearing up to request to go out to fight. Captain Yu came back at the right time.
"The commander-in-chief has given an order for all the brigade to go out from the mountains to attack the enemy. He ordered the teams to first pull out a few Japanese strongholds nearby, then retreat into the mountains, wait for grass and crops to grow, and then attack further away.
General Political Commissar Qin Gang and Captain Hai have already gone out to pull out a Japanese stronghold. The results are good. Brothers are very encouraged. When will we start taking action? "
"Now go find Deputy Squadron Leader Jiao and see how the situation is at Xinglongtun?"
Yu Chenglong was also infected by the mood of Deputy Captain Zhang Daoxian, and became excited. He immediately urged people to call Deputy Captain Jiao Cheng over and asked him to see what he had discovered.
Jiao Cheng came quickly and was ordered to report the situation. He was happy to hear that Captain Yu Chenglong was back, but now he asked him to report on the detected situation. Of course, he reported in great detail.
"Xinglong Tun is now much larger than before, and the Japanese have gathered people living in the mountains and small villages on the mountainside here. Trenches have also been dug outside the villages to facilitate defense.
Just between the intersection of the mountain and the village, the Japs built a strong gun tower, guarded by more than thirty Manchurian troops and seven or eight Japs.
This blockhouse is still very solidly built. Generally, there are no Japanese guarding the blockhouse. It seems that Japan still attaches great importance to the strategic position here.
They are inspected when leaving the mountains and villages, and they are not allowed to bring anything with them. The turret is very spacious and easy to defend but difficult to attack. I heard that some kind of "big queue" had been built in the villages to help the Japanese guard the villages and inform them. "
"Let's remove this stronghold first!"
Yu Chenglong punched the table and decided to lead people to pull out this little devil's turret. Everyone was infected by his emotion and stood at attention to listen to his further instructions.
"I will go out with Deputy Squadron Leader Jiao first to reconnoiter the situation. Director Xun and Deputy Captain Li will lead a team to follow up tomorrow and ambush in Qingshuigou, twenty miles away from Xinglongtun. I will send someone to contact them then.
Deputy Captain Zhang and Captain Wu guarded the camp and immediately sent people to report to the commander-in-chief. The team leaving the mountain and the team defending the camp must act according to the plan and are not allowed to change the action plan without authorization.
This is our first battle this year. We can only win, not lose. Director Xun must mobilize well before the war. Deputy Captain Li brought some of the explosives we had stored and prepared to blow up the Japanese gun towers. "
After Yu Chenglong made arrangements, seeing that everyone had no objections, he asked them to prepare separately, and then led Jiao Cheng to set off first.
After walking in the mountains for six days, the two of them reached the edge of the forest. The two simply ate some dry food and sneaked into Xinglongtun while it was dark. He wanted to find Brother Lin Fushun first.
This village has indeed changed. The new and old residential areas that were naturally formed have been connected together. The trenches dug around the village have also had a considerable defensive effect.
The number of households in the village has increased a lot. According to a rough estimate, there are 150 or 60 households. The two of them arrived at Lin Fushun's house in a roundabout way. When they met, Lin Fushun let them into the house.
Lin Fushun's home is no longer on the edge of the village. Many houses have been built around his home, but at first glance, they appear to be newer than a few years ago.
Brother Lin Fushun's family is no longer as poor as it used to be. The three small houses are built in a decent manner. It can be seen that he is already an above-average wealthy household in the village.
"You haven't eaten yet, brother? I'll ask your sister-in-law to quickly cook something for you two."
Lin Fushun enthusiastically let Yu Chenglong and Jiao Cheng sit on the kang. Not to mention how happy he was to see that Yu Chenglong could come in person, the first thing he thought of was to cook for Yu Chenglong.
"What are you cooking in the middle of the night? Don't let anyone find out. We've both eaten. Now tell us about the situation in the Japs' turrets and villages. We have to leave overnight."
Yu Chenglong did not let Lin Fushun cook, but looked very anxious and asked about the situation in the village and the blockhouse. Lin Fushun had no choice but to comply and carefully reported the situation he had learned.
Of course, Lin Fushun still focused on the key points to introduce. As a habit developed over many years, Lin Fushun still knew what to focus on so that Yu Chenglong could understand more and more usefully.
