Wu Feng drank several gulps of water, then sat down on the ground and warmed himself by the fire.

Gradually, his body began to warm up, and Wu Feng felt that his physical strength had recovered a little, but his head was still dizzy. He closed his eyes involuntarily and began to doze off in a daze.

Time passed by, and he didn't know how long he had slept. Wu Feng suddenly opened his eyes, and an inexplicable alertness made him wake up instantly. Then, he suddenly realized that something was wrong - there seemed to be something strange around him...

In this slightly run-down and old wooden house, four strange men with stern faces and serious expressions sat against the wall. They did not communicate with each other, not even a word, but just stared straight at Wu Feng who was sitting in the middle of the room.

Faced with such a strange scene and four sharp gazes, Wu Feng couldn't help but feel a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart. He subconsciously reached out to touch his arms.

However, when he reached in, he felt nothing. Wu Feng's face turned pale instantly, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead. He widened his eyes and felt around again in disbelief, but the result was still the same: the place where the box gun was placed was now empty!

"Where is my box gun? How come it disappeared?" Wu Feng's mind was suddenly in a mess, and all kinds of fears and doubts surged into his heart. He clearly remembered that before entering the cabin just now, the box gun was well hidden in his arms. But now, it disappeared inexplicably!

Wu Feng's heartbeat became faster and faster, and cold sweat kept oozing from his forehead and sliding down his cheeks. He looked around, trying to find some clues from these silent strangers, but their expressions were calm, as if they didn't care about what was happening before their eyes.

At this time, a man wearing a golden dog-skin hat sat opposite him. He raised the box gun in his hand and asked coldly,

"Are you looking for this?"

Wu Feng looked at the man opposite him. He had a full beard and his eyes were flashing with cold light.

He couldn't help but nodded, clasping his fists.

He opened his mouth and asked,

"When you go out and wander around, what kind of god will come to visit you?"

The people on the opposite side suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

A young man said,

"Captain, they are bandits!"

The cold light gradually disappeared from the bearded man's eyes.

"Where are you from, bandit?"

Wu Feng was a little confused. He was thinking about the other party's identity.

"Captain? It looks like the army. Where is it from?"

Wu Feng looked at the other party's clothes. All four of them were wearing large cotton coats in gray, blue, and yellow! There were patches all over them!

The hats they wear are of different styles and fur colors, all homemade to keep warm! They have two big ears drooping down!

Wu Feng quickly came to a conclusion in his mind that this must be the Northeast Anti-Japanese United Army!

The young man looked at Wu Feng in a daze and became unhappy.

"Are you deaf or dumb? Our company commander is asking you a question!"

"Xiao Hou, don't be anxious, just tell him slowly!" said the bearded man unhappily.

Wu Feng sighed and began to confess sincerely.

"My name is Wu Feng, and I used to be a bandit in Mulan County!"

The bearded man asked curiously,

"Mulan County? Where is it?"

His accent is a bit strange, and you can tell it’s not a local Northeastern accent!

"It's in Binjiang, 1500 miles away from here!" Wu Feng replied!

The bearded man took out a black corn and a small piece of dried meat from his pocket and handed it over.

"You don't even have anything to eat, so eat something first!"

Xiao Hou was anxious.

"Captain, he's just a bandit. You gave him food, but what are you going to do? It'll take several hours to get back to the camp!"

The bearded man glared at Xiao Hou.

"What's wrong with being a bandit? Our regiment commander was a member of the Central Army before, but he still joined the Red Army! What kind of thinking do you have? You are so outdated!"

Wu Feng stared at the corn and couldn't help swallowing!

The bearded man smiled and introduced himself.

"Eat, I'm the company commander of the Anti-Japanese United Army, my name is Sang Xiaoliu! Don't be nervous! We are fighting the devils, not the bandits!"

Wu Feng took the corn and dried meat and held them in the company commander's arms, which still had a trace of body temperature.

He lowered his head and began to eat voraciously. While eating, he looked at Sang Xiaoliu with gratitude!

"I came here to look for my brother. I haven't seen him for a few years. Who would have thought that the whole village was fenced off and I still couldn't find him!"

An anti-Japanese fighter sighed.

"Hey, in Mengjiang County, the Japanese puppet army made it impossible for us to find civilians to help them. They turned small villages into big villages and drove all the scattered farmers into the big villages!"

Sang Xiaoliu also shook his head.

"Damn it! I've been fighting for so many years and have gone through a long march, but this is the first time I've encountered such a cunning and cruel opponent!"

The little soldier named Xiao Hou laughed and said,

"Captain, I love listening to your stories about the Long March, especially the Western Expedition!"

Sang Xiaoliu said proudly,

"Isn't that right? Our 7th Steel Company has fought all over the Hexi Corridor and couldn't find a single opponent. Alas! If our boss was still here, the Japanese here wouldn't be so rampant!"

At the end, his tone changed and he actually started sobbing!

Several soldiers were silent!

After a while, Sang Xiaoliu said,

"Wu Feng, what are your plans? If you have nowhere to go, why not join us and fight the devils while looking for your brother!"

When Sang Xiaoliu first arrived at the South Manchuria Anti-Japanese United Army, he was still a battalion commander with more than 200 people under his command. After two months of fighting, there were less than 60 people left, and the troops were compressed into a company!

He would not let go of any soldier he could recruit! Especially bandits, he knew that many bandits in the Northeast were ruthless and good at shooting, they were all good soldiers!

Wu Feng thought it made sense and said without hesitation,

"I am willing to join the Anti-Japanese United Army!"

Sang Xiaoliu was overjoyed and held Wu Feng's hand.

"Welcome, you are now a soldier of the Fourth Company of the Independent Regiment of the First Division of the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces!"

After saying that, he returned Wu Feng’s box gun!

The fire gradually died down, and the men set out on their journey back to the camp.

Wu Feng followed closely behind Sang Xiaoliu.

I only saw Captain Sang wandering in the mountains, looking at the marks on the trees from time to time!

Wu Feng sometimes took a curious look at it, but the marks on the tree looked like ghost paintings, and he couldn't understand them at all!

After walking for about four hours, Sang Xiaoliu led the group into a primitive forest with no roads to go through.

The group had no choice but to walk through the jungle of towering trees for a few hundred meters.

Suddenly, the view in front of me opened up and revealed an empty space.

Several wooden houses were built on the open space.

Dozens of soldiers were outside the house swinging axes to chop down trees and split firewood!

Sang Xiaoliu reminded enthusiastically:

"Wu Feng, be careful not to get tripped by the tree roots on the ground!"

Wu Feng carefully followed Sang Xiaoliu into a room.

The interior is very simple, except for a few tree stumps.

There was only a row of large kangs made of wood, covered with a thick layer of straw, and there were more than a dozen quilts on them, some thin and some thick!

"Our conditions here are rather simple. This is a row of dormitories. You will sleep here tonight!"

Sang Xiaoliu called another soldier over.

"Go call the platoon leader!"

After a while, a young soldier, about twenty years old, walked into the room, his two big eyes showing a clever look!

He stood at attention, raised his hand and saluted:

"Report to the company commander, what instructions do you have?"

Wu Feng, who was standing nearby, had his eyes wide open after he came in from the platoon leader. After watching it several times, he suddenly became excited. He rushed forward and hugged the platoon leader tightly, shouting:

"You are a soldier???!!!"

The young soldier looked at Wu Feng in surprise. After staring for a long time, tears suddenly burst out of his eyes. He hugged Wu Feng and cried:

"Brother, is it really you? Dad and Mom are both dead! Where on earth have you been?"

Sang Xiaoliu was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter:

"Platoon leader! How could such a coincidence happen? I called you here to assign you a new soldier, but I didn't expect that it turned out to be your long-lost brother!"

Wu Bing cried for a while, wiped his tears and said:

"Captain, my brother and I have been separated for six years. I never thought we would meet again!"

"What's your name, platoon leader?"

"Wu Bing! He is my only relative now, and he has also joined the team. It doesn't matter if I say my name!"

Sang Xiaoliu smiled and said,

"Haha, one Wu Bing and one Wu Feng, it seems that our four companies have gathered their forces and will surely win this time. You can talk about the past later, we need to have a meeting first!"
