Instructor Huo smiled and said, "Captain, don't be anxious. Strength is something that can't be acquired in a hurry. It needs to be accumulated slowly."

"Half a month ago, our guerrillas obtained a batch of cloth and food, and received verbal commendation from our superiors."

"Instructor, let's not talk about that. Our guerrillas planned for a long time, but we only obtained a dozen pieces of cloth and 5,000 kilograms of food. It's a bit embarrassing to tell others about this achievement."

"I will be too embarrassed to mention these petty, sneaky things to my old comrades when I return to the base."

"Now our guerrillas only have one pistol with 25 rounds of bullets, which I brought from my old unit. We also have three rifles with 30 rounds of bullets, two old-style pistols and one Hanyang rifle, all of which were made by our grandfathers. We're lucky if we can get a good shot."

"The rest are just daggers and short knives. They are totally useless when we really fight the Japanese."

"There are only 22 members in the team, most of whom are newly recruited. Apart from their enthusiasm, they have not received any formal military training."

"But even if we want to train, it's useless. With four guns and dozens of bullets, if a real fight breaks out, I guess we won't be able to defeat even three Japanese devils."

Faced with the problems raised by Captain Wang, Instructor Huo understood the difficulties faced by the guerrillas, but he had no solution.

This is the current strength. Any reckless action will only lead to the annihilation of the guerrillas.

In China, there are thousands of guerrilla groups like theirs. New groups are formed every day, and some are wiped out every day.

In the hearts of all Chinese people, there is only one belief, that is, never kneel down even if you die, and even if you die, you must bite off a piece of flesh from the enemy.

"Captain, I think with our current guerrilla strength, if we want weapons and equipment, we should try to get them from the puppet army or the traitor landlords. Those people are spineless and it will be easy for us to get them."

"Instructor, you and I are thinking the same thing. I have been thinking about this matter recently."

"There is a big traitor in my hometown Wangjiazhuang. His eldest son is the captain of the Taigu County Security Team, and his youngest son is the deputy stationmaster at the railway station. This family has done all kinds of bad things. They are definitely a family of traitors."

"At least half of the land in Wangjiazhuang belongs to him. He has done a lot of immoral things over the years. It is common for him to force tenants to sell their children."

"It's just a pity that their courtyard wall is high and deep, and they have a guard team of more than 50 people, and even two light machine guns. It is also close to the Japanese stronghold, so most people don't dare to attack their house."

As the two were talking, a young man walked in.

After seeing this, Captain Wang asked Dong'an in surprise:

"Liu Bao, aren't you a communicator for the political commissar? How did you find time to come to my little place?"

After hearing this, Liu Bao said with a wry smile:

"Squad Leader Wang, no, Captain Wang, you are now a company-level cadre, so stop making fun of me. The political commissar has assigned a new mission to your guerrilla unit."

After saying that, he took out a letter from his underwear pocket and handed it over.

Captain Wang took the letter and handed it directly to Instructor Huo, asking him to read it once before telling him again.

After all, he had only attended a literacy class in the army for a few days, and he knew no more than fifty characters in total, and could barely write his own name.

It's really a bit difficult for him to read the letter.

But he kept complaining, hoping that Liu Bao could take these words back with him.

"Don't mention it. When I was in the regiment's guard company, although I was just a squad leader, I had eleven veterans who had fought in the battlefield and twelve guns under me."

"But now that I'm a company commander, I only have four guns that can fire, and a limited amount of bullets. All I can do is sneaky things and cause trouble for the Japanese."

"As for my subordinates, except for the instructor, they are all useless and have never even touched a gun. How can I fight the Japanese?"

"By the way, Liu Bao, have you eaten yet? Someone, fill up two whole sweet potatoes for me."

After Instructor Huo read the latest order from the political commissar, he said happily:

"Captain, this is great news. Tomorrow a detachment of our brothers will come to our side. We need to receive them well. It seems like a big battle is about to be fought."

Captain Wang was also very happy to hear this good news, and hurriedly said happily:

"That's great. This time I can finally fight with the main force. Only by following the main force can we get some benefits. Even picking up a few guns is better than anything else."

"As long as we have enough weapons and ammunition, we can directly trouble the Japanese in the future, and no longer have to resort to small-scale conflicts."

"Oh, by the way, let's find a way to prepare some food for the brothers. Whenever we have distinguished guests, we always treat them with the best food. We can't neglect them."

Instructor Huo nodded after hearing this. He also hoped to improve the situation with the help of brother troops, rather than everyone staying in the mountains doing nothing.

The next morning, Captain Wang led all the guerrillas to the rendezvous point in accordance with the instructions on the order.

However, when the guerrillas saw the special forces' luxurious equipment, they were all shocked.

"Captain Kong, what kind of unit are you from? You are equipped with two guns, a submachine gun and a pistol. Are you from our headquarters guard regiment?"

At this point, he shook his head firmly again and said seriously:

"Even the headquarters guards don't have such luxurious equipment. The most they have are Mauser pistols, and very few have submachine guns."

After hearing this, Kong Hao smiled and said:

"Captain Wang, we are here to carry out a secret mission under the order of the commander. Due to the need for confidentiality, we cannot reveal our identities."

"The reason we contacted you, the Taigu County Railway Guerrillas, is mainly because we want to go to the station and need you to make some arrangements."

When Captain Wang heard this, he immediately asked excitedly:

"Captain Kong, are the leaders preparing to attack the train station? That's great. Our Railway Guerrillas will definitely make a great contribution this time."

Kong Hao did not respond, but Instructor Huo pulled Captain Wang's sleeve and whispered:

"Old Wang, the political commissar specifically told us in the letter that we should just follow orders and not ask about things we shouldn't."

Captain Wang then remembered what the instructor had told him and quickly apologized to Kong Hao.

Kong Hao smiled and said, "It's not that serious. It's mainly because we can't reveal our origins, lest our enemies find out and cause big trouble in the future."

"You can think of us as a unit under the headquarters training regiment. You can say the same to others."

"By the way, since this is our first meeting, I also brought a gift for your guerrilla group."

After saying this, he waved his hand and asked six team members to carry over two boxes.

Captain Wang saw that Kong Hao was so particular, and quickly replied politely:

"Since you are all here, why bring any gifts? That's very polite of you."

Although he said this, his eyes were always fixed on the box in front of him.

After Kong Hao ordered someone to open the box, he said with a smile:

"There are ten Jin-made Mauser pistols and two thousand rounds of ammunition. I heard that your Railway Guerrillas have been active on the railway for a long time. It is difficult to hide long guns, so it is more appropriate to use this short gun."

Upon hearing that there were ten Mauser pistols in the box, each with 200 rounds of ammunition, Captain Wang and Instructor Huo rubbed their hands with excitement.
