Yu Chenglong led the people to escort the stolen food convoy, and after continuing to drive along the road for a certain distance, they turned and drove onto other roads. This was not only to prevent the little devils from sending troops to pursue them, but also to follow the chief helmsman at night. The brothers of the Holy Word led by the Lord gathered together.
No enemies were encountered along the way, and there were no other unexpected situations. Shortly after dark, the convoy met the brothers of the Holy Path Society led by the chief helmsman on the road.
"Unload the food on the car and leave one car behind. The chief helmsman dispersed the food with him overnight, and I will lead the convoy to continue moving forward to confuse the Japanese. When you are completely safe, I will abandon the car and hide in Mountain.
We will not take any big actions this year, and everything will focus on safety. While our Holy Association is working hard to develop, we must also pay attention to safety and must not be exposed. The chief helmsman must also pay more attention to it. "
Yu Chenglong and Chief Steward Yang Furen hugged each other tightly and shared their greetings after a long separation. We haven’t seen each other for a long time. Although the chief helmsman is a little thin, he is still full of energy and is still the great hero who defeated thousands of miles away.
"Okay, let's say goodbye. We have been going well this year and have developed rapidly. But we must be prepared for danger in times of peace, play steadily and not be careless. I agree with your idea of 'safety first' and hide the team as soon as possible.
In the past few months, we have been active in and out of the mountains, which has attracted the close attention of the little devils. We cannot make the mistake of rushing into action in the past again. Goodbye and best wishes to the brothers in the mountains! "
Chief Captain Yang Furen took Yu Chenglong's hand and said goodbye to him, while also waving to the brothers in the mountains. Yu Chenglong also waved goodbye to the Holy Taoist brothers who came to deliver food until they left and disappeared into the night.
Taking advantage of the cover of night, Yu Chenglong led the convoy to continue moving forward, of course towards the mountains. It wasn't until dawn, when some cars were out of gas, that Yu Chenglong ordered the team to stop.
"Unload the food from that car and put it on the horseback. Go and blow up the car. The team will no longer take the main road and go straight to the mountains!"
Yu Chenglong issued a new order, so the team turned off the road and walked through the yellowing green gauze tent. During the march, they insisted on hiding during the day and traveling at night. It took five days to reach the mountains.
The team rested for a day, and after contacting the brothers sent by Commander Xiao, they headed to the new secret camp. Yu Chenglong asked Deputy Commander Fang to lead the team in front, leading the horses to carry the food, while he led fifty people to protect behind, clearing away traces as they went.
It took nearly ten days for Yu Chenglong's team to merge with Commander Xiao's team. Yu Chenglong felt that the new secret camp was well chosen and the care was appropriate, so he decided that the team would enter the winter rest in advance.
When the Japanese found that this team was getting stronger and stronger, it was about to enter winter. Yu Chenglong and the others had already taken the team into the mountains to hide in advance, and no trace could be found.
After the team went into hiding in the mountains, Yu Chenglong wrote a letter to Chief Yang, to the effect that he would take advantage of the slack farming season in winter to actively develop membership. It is necessary to take measures such as relief and work assistance to attract more people to join the Holy Word Association and establish branches in farther areas.
It would be better if you could secretly bring in those reputable people, but be cautious. If there are no special events in or outside the mountains, there is no need to frequently ask for instructions to ensure safety.
While the team was resting in hiding in the winter, Yu Chenglong strictly requested that the secret camps reduce contact with each other, personnel were not allowed to leave the mountain, no fires were allowed to be lit during the day, and no secret camps were allowed to leave at night. This is based on lessons learned from the past and truly hiding the team.
After escaping a harsh winter, the team began its spring training activities. Because most of these brothers recruited from the "big queue" and "hard-working army" have not undergone strict training and lack actual combat experience, they must improve their combat effectiveness through military training.
To this end, the team launched a spring training activity in order to improve the team's combat effectiveness. At the same time, many people were sent to contact outside the mountain to obtain more intelligence information to facilitate future operations of the Holy Path National Salvation Army.
Throughout the winter, the Japanese did not stop their brutal campaign against the anti-Japanese armed forces in the mountains. When the weather warmed up, the campaign became even more frenzied. They planned to completely eliminate the anti-Japanese armed forces in the mountains in the spring.
Because at this time, the anti-Japanese armed forces who had been hiding all winter were already hungry and had to go out to the mountains to find food. In addition, this time was not conducive to hiding, so it was a good time for the Japanese to attack. All anti-Japanese armed forces are facing more difficult difficulties and many dangers.
Of course, the team led by Yu Chenglong did not have such a crisis because they had sufficient food and their station was hidden and safe. So Yu Chenglong sent out capable personnel to search around and collected some sporadic anti-Japanese armed forces.
When summer came, the intensity of the Japs' encirclement and suppression campaigns weakened, and the anti-Japanese armed forces facing extreme pressure to survive had a short respite. But at this time, there were not many influential anti-Japanese teams, and the entire Manchuria fell into a low ebb in the anti-Japanese war.
Yu Chenglong sent out a small team to attack in rotation, using the old method to lead the new, to attack and harass the enemy, and to train and improve the team's combat effectiveness. During this period, the team did not take any major actions. Although it did not expand in size, it did not suffer any losses.
Commander Xiao asked to leave the mountain because he was worried about his son. Yu Chenglong didn't ask her to take more people out. He just asked her to take five people from the reconnaissance team out to collect information and take a look at the children.
After Commander-in-Chief Xiao Dongxue left, Yu Chenglong asked Deputy Commander Fang and Chief of Staff Jin to lead the team to continue training, preparing to fight a big battle before the leaves of the trees fall in autumn, and then go into the mountains to find a new hiding place, and enter the winter rest early like last year.
Nearly a month later, Commander-in-Chief Xiao Dongxue entered the mountain and brought a lot of new news. This month, Aunt Xiao's body has not changed much, but her spirits have improved a lot. After all, she has met the son she has been missing for a long time.
It can be seen from Aunt Xiao's expression that her family, including Yu Chenglong's family, must be very good, because as soon as they met, Aunt Xiao ran over and held Yu Chenglong's hand tightly, with a smile on her face. Happy smile.
"You have a son! Last winter, your wife Fengying gave birth to a big fat boy for you. He is now eight or nine months old. Your wife had some dystocia when giving birth, and she is not in good health now. She is getting older. .
The child is very strong and has a big head. I am still waiting for you to go back and name the child. Now everyone calls him Fatty. Your mother is very happy now. She stays with her grandchildren all day long. They are all looking forward to you going back to see them. "
