I fought guerrilla warfare in the Yimeng Mountains during the Anti-Japanese War

Chen Feng showed no mercy. He tied Lin Guangqing tightly with a hemp rope, pushed him out and tied him to the locust tree next to the grass cave. The blood in Lin Guangqing's arms was almost drained. He was numb and said nothing, allowing Chen Feng to torment him.

Chen Feng ignored the five women next door and searched the kang well for a wooden box. It was full of silver dollars, about three hundred yuan, and eight small yellow croakers. He took the box and lantern to the yard and shouted to the next door:

Five sisters, come out to divide the money.

There was a rustling sound, and the door opened. The two women came out first, and the three women behind them hid behind them timidly. Seeing the bandit leader tied to a locust tree, Chen Feng was sitting on a rocky hill under the locust tree with a box of money at his feet. He finally felt relieved. There was a woman with no clothes to cover her body, with scars all over her body, as if she had been whipped. She went up to Lin Guangqing, biting and tearing him, and let out a heart-wrenching roar:

Give me back my child, give me back my child.

Chen Feng became depressed and shouted to the woman:

Okay, let’s talk about revenge later, come here first!

Several people came to Chen Feng, knelt down together, kowtowed and bowed, shouting, "Thank you, benefactor, thank you, hero."

Chen Feng asked several people to stand up and sit down around him. He asked what their plans were. The two women began to cry. They could finally leave the wolf's den, but they didn't know where to go. The short woman said:

We were all kidnapped and brought to the mountain. The three of them have been kidnapped here for half a year, and the two of us have only been kidnapped for two months. The women who were kidnapped before were either tortured to death or redeemed. The five of us have been rejected by our in-laws or our own families. We don't want to pay the ransom, and it would be shameful to redeem us. Sister Fang even had a miscarriage due to the torture they gave her. She almost bled to death. We don't know what to do or where to go in the future. If the hero can show us a way forward, we will be very grateful and will worship him, kowtow to him every day, and burn incense every month.

Cheng Hao was heartbroken when he heard these tragic scenes, and he also made up his mind to eliminate the bandits. Looking at the money in the box, he said:

Each of you five people, one small yellow croaker, keep it close to your body, and the other person should count fifty dollars, try to hide it well. One of my brothers may go up the mountain at dawn, and I will ask him to arrange someone to take you to Linyi City! When you get there, you can take care of each other and settle down. After a year or two, you can find someone suitable and marry. It won't be too far from your hometown, and you can come back to visit when you miss home in a few years.

The five people kowtowed hurriedly again. This was a huge favor. The small yellow croaker plus the ocean money were worth nearly a hundred ocean dollars, which was enough for them to settle down. Chen Feng did not stop them. The five people just wanted to find a backbone to comfort their panicked and desperate hearts.

After the five people divided the money, Chen Feng closed the money box and collected the bullets from several rooms. He dragged out the two sentries and threw them aside. Then he turned over the grass hole, cleared the weeds, found a shovel, and started digging. He first used the shovel to quickly clear more than ten centimeters along the ground, and then used the bayonet to test it. Lin Guangqing looked at Chen Feng's movements strangely, and didn't quite understand. Seeing that Chen Feng finally stabbed the landmine, his heart was full of curiosity. Chen Feng explained while digging the landmine:

You are so cruel that you let your subordinates lie on the landmines and stand guard every day. Did you bury the landmines secretly without telling them because you are afraid that they will steal your money?

Lin Guangqing looked at Chen Feng, ignored Chen Feng's question, and asked:

How do you know how deep the mines are? Aren't you afraid of hitting a mine when you're just shoveling?

Chen Feng smiled. Didn't you calculate it when you buried it yourself? It can not only prevent your subordinates from stepping on the mine when they are sentinels, but also quickly dig out the money when you retreat in a crisis, and prevent your subordinates from secretly doing it. It kills three birds with one stone! I guess there is money under the mine, right?

Lin Guangqing lowered his head silently. It was not unfair for him to lose, and it was not unfair for him to be killed. Just now, when Chen Feng was moving the two bodies, he noticed with the light of the lantern that one of them was touched on the neck, so he must have been sleeping. The other had several bloody holes on his head and neck, and it seemed that one or two fingers were missing. Who was this person? He looked less than 20 years old. Did he start practicing since the womb?

After a while, Chen Feng took out the mine, put it away carefully, and still not feeling at ease, he stabbed it again with his bayonet before starting to dig. Ten minutes later, a black iron box was revealed. Chen Feng carefully explored it and found no traps. He grabbed the handle on it and pulled it out with force. The box was extremely heavy, but it was not locked. Chen Feng opened the lotus leaf and gently opened the box. The box was only one-third full. There were yellow croakers wrapped in oilcloth. He unwrapped the layers and counted them. There were thirteen large yellow croakers and twenty small yellow croakers. His night's work was not in vain. If Lin Guangqing had not been in a hurry to kill him, it would have been difficult for him to think that the treasure was buried in this place. He wrapped the yellow croaker again, leaving only a box gun on his body. He put two box guns, two Brownings, and seven or eight hundred rounds of various pistol bullets into the box, closed the lid, and sat on the box waiting silently.

Zhang Liang and Wang Hanqiang arrived with ten people before three o'clock. They waited silently below. After waiting for two hours, there was no movement. It was almost dawn and they could not wait any longer. They went to Xiaoqing Mountain to check. They sneaked to the front of the house and looked through the window. There were dead bodies lying all over the floor. They did not dare to light a fire. They checked with the moonlight and the dim morning light. They all had something shot through their foreheads or throats. The blood had turned black. The two looked at each other, horrified and frightened. They ignored the dead bodies and led the team to Daqing Mountain. When they arrived at the bandit camp, they saw lanterns hanging from a distance. They carefully checked and found Chen Feng sitting under a tree with a man tied to the tree. They slowly approached and were discovered by Chen Feng from a distance:

Come on! The bandits are dead.

The two men suppressed their fear and came under the tree. Liu Hanqiang knew Lin Guangqing. Seeing his enemy tied to the tree, he could no longer bear it. He raised his gun and shot. It was too late for Zhang Liang to stop him. Lin Guangqing was shot in the chest and vomited blood. After a few breaths, his head drooped and he was dead.

Liu Hanqiang's heart was in turmoil, with both the pleasure of revenge and the pain of losing his loved ones. It took him a while to react. He was a little reckless, but he didn't regret it. He came to Chen Feng and knelt down:

My life, Liu Hanqiang, belongs to my little brother. From now on, no matter what you ask me to do, I will follow you without any second thoughts.

He turned around and kowtowed three times to Zhang Liang:

Thank you for taking me in, young master. I can't stay with you anymore, so I hope you won't blame me.

Zhang Liang did not say anything, but nodded slightly. The servant checked the houses one by one and told him that more than thirty bandits were dead, all of them had their necks touched. Several houses were full of blood. Zhang Liang looked at Chen Feng as if he was a monster. He was too strong. One against fifty, all in one night, no, it probably didn't take long. He couldn't help but shudder. This man was not only a master, but also a ruthless man.
