After lunch, Liu Lihui proposed to say goodbye, and Chen Feng and Shen Honglie tried to keep him but he remained unmoved. In Liu Lihui's words, they were all the elite of the Fifth War Zone, and their training and combat missions were fully scheduled, and they could not waste a moment. Chen Feng and Shen Honglie both understood that if Li Yunyan and Song Zihan had not come as the communications group this time, the guard regiment would not have been dispatched.

Chen Feng had his men rummage around in the warehouse for a long time and finally found a general's command sword and a lieutenant officer's command sword. The lieutenant officer's command sword was given to Liu Lihui, and he was asked to give the general's command sword to Li Zongren. Liu Lihui was obviously very satisfied with the gift and did not refuse at all. After thanking the team, he rode away with the team, leaving all the carriages to Mengshan. They still had to cross a large area of ​​enemy-occupied area, so the leaner the team, the safer it would be.

Shen Honglie also took the opportunity to bid farewell, saying that he had to exchange the newly received reward of silver for food in time so that he would not starve in the mountains if the Japanese army launched a large-scale blockade in the future.

Before leaving, Chen Feng looked very sad:

"Brother Shen, I'm sorry. The elite company has suffered casualties. Last time we attacked Pingyang, two elites died and seven were injured. During training the day before yesterday, another elite slipped and broke his arm."

Shen Honglie looked serious:

"Brother Leng Qiang, I'm not handing them over to you to let them enjoy themselves. I said before you came that those who are afraid of death and fatigue will withdraw voluntarily. No one will have diarrhea. There will be casualties in battle. Brothers, don't worry about training them and using them. No matter how successful they are, they are the backbone of the New Fourth Division."

"Okay, I'll stop talking. I'm leaving now. Be careful of Miss Song. She has a background and might have bad intentions."

"Don't worry, big brother! There will be no problem as long as he is not a Japanese spy."

"Okay, as long as you know what's going on, brother is getting in the car."

Watching Shen Honglie and the guard platoon leave, Chen Feng returned to the mountain. Those who should leave had left, and those who should be busy had gone to work. Li Yunyan was still waiting for Chen Feng in the cave:

"Brother Leng Qiang, Zi Han has been traveling a long distance and his body can't take it anymore, so he has gone to rest."

"Let's go! I'll take you around Mount Mengshan first. Tell me why you decided to participate in special warfare training."

Liu Lihui started his return journey, and as soon as he left the Mengshan area, he sent a telegram to the Fifth War Zone Command, reporting back everything about Mengshan and emphasizing Leng Qiang's arrangements for the communications group.

Li Zongren received the telegram and praised him for being smart. He then asked his confidential secretary to forward the telegram to Chongqing. The senior officials were very pleased to receive the telegram. He was not surprised that Leng Qiang kept the two people, but he did not expect to reuse them. It seems that Leng Qiang is loyal to the government! Otherwise, he would never dare to assign the crucial positions to two outsiders. Yes, he did not waste his 200,000 yuan. However, the senior officials would never have thought that Li Yunyan would sell him out on the first day he came.

It had just rained a few days ago, and the waterfall in the middle of Mount Meng had grown to a certain size. There were many vegetation on the mountain, and the water of the waterfall was very clear. At the stone table under the waterfall, Chen Feng and Li Yunyan were talking in detail:

"Just like that, my uncle finally agreed. I flew to Chongqing and met with the top leaders and their wives, as well as Song Zihan. They made a request to us that we must report to them any disturbances here, especially those that have intersections with the CCP. They asked us to respond to every detail. Brother Lengqiang, are they suspecting you of something? I asked my uncle, but he didn't say a word, only saying that you can handle it."

Chen Feng was somewhat touched. Chongqing wanted to make trouble, but the trouble obviously lay with him. Seeing Li Yunyan's puzzled expression, Chen Feng gave a detailed explanation:

"I had some interactions with the guerrillas over there before, maybe this attracted their attention! Don't be wronged, you should react as you should. If they think you are unqualified, they may replace you soon, and then you will be uneasy. Don't worry, I have no intention of collaborating with the Communists. The current task is to fight the Japanese. If the Japanese are defeated one day, I guess I will have no motivation to fight. By then, I might go back to my hometown to get married and have children"!

Li Yunyan didn't know what she was thinking about. Her face flushed and she turned her head to look at the waterfall:

"Brother Lengqiang, Sniper and I have roughly understood the situation on the mountain. Since there is nothing to worry about being exposed here, I would like to train with the guard battalion after the communications platoon is formed."

"That's no problem, but let me make it clear, the training intensity is very high. If you can't hold on, don't force yourself. The day before yesterday, a soldier slipped and fell off a cliff after becoming dehydrated during training. Fortunately, he was caught by a tree, but he still broke his arm."

"Don't worry, Brother Lengqiang, I can keep up."

The days without fighting were very happy. Li Yunyan and Song Zihan worked vigorously and established the framework of the communications platoon in three days. Although it was called a communications platoon, the number of people was almost reaching the company level, but the personnel would be very scattered in the future.

There is a squad of telegraph operators and a squad of telephone system personnel stationed on the mountain. The battalion-level units have a communications squad and the company-level units have a four-person communications team.

The spies in the surrounding counties are also managed in a unified manner, and each county has two communication teams that have no overlap at all. These matters were previously commanded and handled by Chen Feng, but now he doesn't have to worry about anything and is only responsible for training.

The members of the communications platoon were all selected by Chen Feng himself. Each combat unit used a different secret code book, and a specific person was responsible for a specific combat unit. Except for the translators on both sides, no one else had the right to interfere, not even Li Yunyan and Song Zihan. However, the two of them could review the battle summary of each battle. This was also a signal sent by Chen Feng to Chongqing that there was nothing that needed to be hidden about our Yimeng guerrillas.

While the team was training, construction on the mountain did not stop. Cement was continuously transported, there was no shortage of explosives, and the three tunnel defense systems were reinforced a lot. There was no problem in supporting the 150 heavy artillery and aerial bombs. However, many people did not understand why the captain set up a death explosion line in the middle of the open area. All the explosives were buried deep, and the direction of the explosion was the lower area. The fuses were also hidden in the deep trench. As long as the handles on top were pressed together, the lower part of the open area would be in ruins.

Li Yunyan was indeed not bragging, she could really keep up with the training of the Guard Battalion and the Elite Company. When hundreds of grown men saw that a girl could hold on, they were instantly excited. They were willing to run even if they broke their legs, because they could not be outdone by a delicate girl.

In addition to physical fitness, Li Yunyan also has a very good talent for shooting. After more than ten days of training, he stood out from the guard battalion and the elite company. Holding the 98k rifle issued by Chen Feng himself, Li Yunyan's face was full of excitement, and he couldn't wait to follow the assault team down the mountain to fight the Japanese.

Chen Feng was a bit troubled by this. Could it be another powerful Sister Caiyun? He would not be able to explain to Li Zongren in the future!

In the blink of an eye, it was November. The temperature dropped sharply, and it was a little cold in the morning and evening. However, living in a cave has a very big advantage. It is warm in winter and cool in summer. The five women on the mountain occupied a newly dug cave, not far from the waterfall, and it was very convenient to get water and wash. Liu Caiyun naturally became the big sister, but Li Yunyan and Song Zihan were not used to calling her Bandage Sister. Bandage Sister didn't sound nice either, so they could only call her Big Sister helplessly every day.

Song Zihan became good friends with the Yang sisters. Through them, she learned many stories about cold guns and commanders on the mountain. She was very happy, but the Yang sisters were not stupid. The information they revealed was all agreed by Liu Caiyun.

On November 1938, 11, the training of Hell Month ended and the team had undergone a tremendous change. The team of more than 5 people stood together, and except for the mountain breeze blowing their clothes, there was no movement or sound. From a distance, they looked like a group of statues hung with cloth. They stood in fixed military posture for an hour every morning, and even if they were sweating profusely, they did not move at all.

Chen Feng looked at the team of several hundred people with pride in his eyes. It was the last raid last night. All members carried heavy loads and attacked. They arrived at Fei County in three hours. They used cold weapons to clear the way, and used artillery and blasting to capture the Japanese military camp in Fei County within an hour.

A Japanese squadron and a reinforced battalion of puppet troops were completely wiped out. Only two people in the team were seriously injured and four were slightly injured, and the seriously injured were no longer in danger of death.

Li Yunyan participated in the battle throughout. She killed more than a dozen Japanese machine gunners with her 98k and smashed the head of the Japanese squadron leader with a single shot from meters away. She became famous in one battle. After Liu Caiyun, there was another female sniper god on the mountain.

The spoils of war were also very good. The Japanese army was defensively low, and they had enough food and canned goods to last until the New Year. They also had plenty of guns and ammunition, but because of the presence of the elite company, the team did not throw away their guns at the foot of Mount Ni.

The one-hour military posture time was up, and Chen Feng ordered a rest. The team knew that the Hell Month was over, but they were not ecstatic. The soldiers in the Guard Battalion felt that they had not learned enough and wanted to have another Hell Month. The elites of the Elite Company knew that they had to return to Menglianggu today and that the commander would come to pick them up in person. They were reluctant to leave, but they understood that the New Fourth Division in Menglianggu was still waiting for their teachings, so no matter how reluctant they were, they had to go back and shoulder the burden.

Chen Feng looked at the group of people standing still, the atmosphere was a little depressing, and said half-jokingly:

"What's wrong? Are you reluctant? You're a bunch of bastards. Are you feeling itchy if you don't get a beating every day?"

The team burst into laughter, and Shen Zizhong's three leaders were more active:

"Captain, how about we take half back and let the rest continue to learn from you! We can switch places next month. I haven't mastered Baguazhang yet."

Chen Feng had no expression on his face:

"I've been practicing for more than ten years but still haven't gotten it right. I think you're just reluctant to give up the canned beef stewed with cabbage from the mountains!"

The team burst into laughter again.

"Breakfast is ready. It's the last meal of canned cabbage stewed with beef. We don't have much food left. Everyone eats more than pigs. After eating, hurry up and get out of here with your equipment. Brother Shen will be here with a convoy soon. There's no need to be reluctant to leave. Hurry back and train the troops. You never know when the Japanese may come."

"Yes"!

A group of people felt refreshed after being scolded, and the atmosphere of parting was diluted. Li Yunyan was at the very edge of the team with tears in her eyes. Nearly a month of training had made her feel deeply touched. Although they all stood in heroic postures, their bodies were covered with scars. The requirements of the cold gun were very high, even beyond everyone's limit, but none of these people backed down. They exceeded their tasks every day and were a group of elites who were extremely eager to become stronger.
