I used the Mo Dao (a type of long-handled sword) to fight the Japanese.

"What?...Guya County?...Are they going to make a move against the Mo Dao Group?"

Nagano Yokosuke got excited. That was the place where his dreams were shattered. For the past few days, he had been dreaming of returning to Guya County to wipe out the Mo Dao Gang and get his revenge!

"Haha, you'll see when we get there! Don't be late!"

"Hey! I definitely won't be late!"

After hanging up the phone, Nagano Yoko was incredibly excited. He was determined to seize this opportunity to avenge his previous defeat! This period had been too difficult; serving tea and water, organizing documents, and having to watch people's faces. If he couldn't defeat the Mo Dao Group this time, he wouldn't come back! He'd rather die in battle than suffer such contempt here!

……

During this time, Xiahou Town and Qili Township were in intense preparation for battle. The number of people strolling the streets had noticeably decreased, and many shops were closed, quietly awaiting the arrival of the great battle. Five days had passed since the Battle of Seoul ended, but the expected Japanese army was still nowhere to be seen. Even some members of the Modao Regiment were losing patience, wondering if the Japanese simply didn't take them seriously and weren't coming.

"Haha, if only it were as you all guessed! We've snatched supplies and equipment from the Japanese, and even two towns. How could they let us go? The less news we get, the more the Japanese are preparing a big move and accumulating strength to give us a real test! The later the Japanese arrive, the harder they are to deal with. We must not let our guard down. This is a major operation concerning the life and death of our Mo Dao Regiment. We cannot be careless!" Man Cang earnestly instructed in the council hall.

"Is it that serious? The Japanese have occupied such a large area, is our tiny patch of land worth them making such a fuss about?" Da Zhao asked, puzzled.

After working hard for ten days to half a month and still not seeing the Japanese soldiers, everyone was getting impatient. Da Zhao even thought that the Japanese soldiers were not coming back!

"Haha, suppose you married three concubines and someone stole your youngest concubine, would you forgive him?" Mancang laughed.

"No way! I'll fight him to the death!"

"That settles it! Although these two towns are small, and even the entire Guya County is a tiny place, this is the rear area of ​​the Battle of Seoul! In the eyes of the Japanese, it is just as important as your concubine. Do you think the Japanese will come?"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"Hahaha, great! That's a very apt analogy!" Sun Zheng laughed and said, "Brothers, be patient. The Japanese have just occupied Seoul and are currently tied up with many other things. But it's certain that the Japanese will attack us! Brother Mancang is right, the later the Japanese arrive, the bigger the commotion will be! This is a hurdle, and we all need to work together to get through it!"

"Platoon Leader Sun is right! Many of us are former hunters, and we all know that patience is the most important thing in hunting! Don't worry, everyone. I reckon the Japanese shouldn't be far from us. Everyone, stay alert, we won't let you all work for nothing!"

“Everyone knows that wolves will wait for days and nights to catch a prey, let alone us…” Mancang was trying to comfort his brothers when Li Dadi suddenly barged in and interrupted him.

"Master Cang! Master Cang!..." The voice came in before the person even arrived. He pushed open the door and was slightly taken aback when he saw so many people. He quickly took three steps at a time and went to Mancang to hand him a note!

"Hey Earth, what happened? It's been so long, you've become quite the tycoon!"

"Haha, that's right! Look at all that fat, he's almost as big as the old manager of the Wang family!"

"You bet! Can you even hold a gun now? Maybe you've been cooped up in your comfort zone for too long and can't even lift a gun anymore?"

"Get out of here! You're all battalion commanders and company commanders now, and you're still so irresponsible! Let me tell you, we haven't missed a single day of training. Let's have a go sometime! Taking you two down is a piece of cake!"

The brothers finally got together, and they were all incredibly sarcastic with each other!

"Don't brag! We brothers crawled out of piles of Japanese corpses! If I really pin you down, don't cry..."

"Haha, if you want to have a showdown, you'll have to wait until after we drive the Japanese away. We don't have time for you to cause trouble now!" Man Cang said solemnly after reading the note and putting it away.

"We've just received word that the Japanese have crossed Nongding Mountain and reached Maojian County. They're expected to be stationed in Guya County by tomorrow morning at the latest! The prey you've been waiting for has arrived!"

"Huh? They really came?! Good thing they came! It saves me from working for nothing!"

"Let's get them! The brothers have been waiting impatiently for this. No matter how many come, we'll take them all!"

"Take them down! We brothers never back down when it comes to fighting the Japanese!"

"Alright! Now everyone return to your positions immediately and be ready for battle. The Japanese have over a thousand men and more than a dozen tanks. This battle will be very difficult, so everyone be prepared!" Man ordered.

"Yes!"

Everyone stood up in unison and responded.

Soon the battalion and company commanders left and went back to their respective posts, leaving only Mancang and Li Dadi in the council hall.

"Why are you being so reckless? Why did you come back on your own after just delivering a message?" Mancang said seriously.

“Master Cang, this note is suspicious! It’s hard to explain why we sent a message through a hunting dog. I’d better go myself…” Li Dadi said.

"Strange? What's going on?" Mancang asked, puzzled.

"This isn't the information we gathered! This morning..."

This morning, the shop was mostly empty. Four girls were chatting, while Li Dadi and Gou Mao were cleaning. Around noon, a middle-aged man in a long robe and top hat came in, ordered three dishes, and sat down to eat in the main hall. Everything seemed normal. As lunchtime approached, two more tables of people came in to eat, so it didn't feel too deserted.

Just as the man finished his meal and was paying the bill, he stuffed the note and a hundred yuan into Li Dadi's hand and left without looking back! Before he could even get change, the man was gone!

Li Dadi quickly chased after him, but the man had already gone far away and disappeared into the depths of the street!

Feeling something was amiss, he returned to the store, opened the note, and was immediately stunned! Realizing the gravity of the matter, he dared not make a decision on his own, so he quickly sent the note back, which led to the scene just now.

"What does that person look like?" Mancang couldn't sit still after hearing this. What did this mean? The fact that the other party could find the restaurant meant that they knew them inside and out! Regardless of whether this person was friend or foe, just knowing them so clearly was quite frightening!

"That man was about my height, with a square face, slightly chubby, and a mustache. He looked very knowledgeable. I'm sure I've never seen him before!" Li Dadi said.

"A thousand Japanese soldiers have reached Maojian, along with ten tanks!"

The note contained only a few words, written in neat, powerful calligraphy with a brush, demonstrating a high level of skill. However, Mancang was completely baffled as to who the person was!
