Vanguards of the War of Resistance! Let's travel back in time together, classmates!

Chapter Thirty-Seven Mysterious Cave

Seeing this, Shangguan Yun flipped his hand and took out two more boxes of bullets, smiling and saying, "Use them sparingly... the bullets need to be shipped from the United States..."

"I know... Hmph..." The latter was overjoyed, but deliberately pouted to cover it up.

"Shouldn't we give him some kind of reward? Hehe..." Shangguan Yun took advantage of the situation.

Song Xiaoyun blushed slightly. "Then...then what reward do you want..." She knew perfectly well what she was doing; she was obviously just pretending.

"Of course it's not a spiritual reward...hehe..." Shangguan Yun, looking like a lecherous man, leaned in, drooling.

"Oh, I see... Look over there... Whoosh... Whoosh..."

As expected of a woman of the martial world, Song Xiaoyun, seeing that no one was around, feigned a shot, lightly pecked Shangguan Yun on the face, and quickly fled the scene.

Only Shangguan Yun remained, standing there dumbfounded, chuckling to himself, as if the whole world had stopped moving, as if it were a scene of snow falling on Christmas Day, just like... Remember the scene in "Flirting Scholar" where a flock of white doves fluttered around Stephen Chow's character...?

In fact, many people have seen the relationship between the two these past few days, but they just secretly laugh about it and no one has pointed it out.

Song Baichuan had seen the two exchanging glances many times, but he pretended not to notice, completely ignoring it. Nonsense, where could he find a son-in-law like this? The family's future depended on this instructor; only a fool would try to ruin it...

"Reporting to the instructor..."

"Uh... Holy crap... report your sister... !"

Shangguan Yun cursed under his breath; the climax had just passed!

"Ahem... What is it!"

"A large cave has been discovered in Longnan Mountain. Please advise, instructor," a soldier reported.

"May I have your name……"

"Reporting to the instructor, my name is Qian Sanlian..."

"Very good, you have a bright future...!"

"Your name... has a very strong yang energy!"

"Hehe! My grandpa was a fortune teller..."

"I'm dizzy..."

"Lead the way," the two said, and strode off toward the western hillside.

After walking three or four miles along a mountain path through a dense forest, we finally discovered a dark cave beneath a cliff.

A large crowd had already gathered around, including the brothers Min Wenqian and Zhang Zhenfei.

"What happened? Who found out...?" Shangguan Yun asked.

"We found this place when we were hunting, chasing a rabbit. Because it's below a cliff, we hadn't paid much attention to it before. Also, the entrance is very small, and there are a lot of bushes growing in front of it," Zhang Zhenfei chuckled.

"Yes, well done. Have you been inside? Is it big inside?" Shangguan Yun asked, peering inside.

“Liu Yong just went in to take a look, and it’s quite large. It looks like it could fit several houses, haha…” Zhang Zhenfei replied.

"Someone, widen the entrance to the cave, light a torch, and come with me inside to take a look..."

In a short while, everyone searched for something to start a fire, lit seven or eight torches, and made the entrance to the cave a little bigger. A dozen or so people filed in.

The entrance to the cave was originally only a little over a foot wide and half a person high. There were obvious signs that it had been concealed by humans. Much of the soil on both sides was freshly dug up by the militia. Before it was opened, no one could enter the cave.

However, it is quite large inside. It seems to be a cave formed a long time ago. Because of its high elevation, the cave is dark and dry. It is about 20 to 30 meters high, more than 10 meters wide, and very deep.

The further you go in, the wider it gets. At the end, about 200 meters away, it is about 100 meters wide. Every so often, there is a huge stone pillar leading to the top of the cave, which obviously serves a certain supporting function.

A dozen or so people split up and began to explore their way inside.

Strangely, the ground was perfectly smooth along the way, as if someone had specially prepared it.

Suddenly Gao Wei shouted, "Come look over here, there are so many small holes!"

Following the sound, everyone looked and sure enough, there were many small caves on both sides of the rock wall, more than a dozen on each side, and there seemed to be words on them.

Shangguan Yun walked closer and used a torch to illuminate the area. Each small hole had a character on it: "rice, millet, salt, oil, armor, soldiers, clothing..." and so on.

Everyone looked puzzled. Could this place have been a warehouse before?

Just then, the two brothers who were scouting inside shouted, "Hurry... there's a dead man here..."

"Thump... Ouch... Damn it, Zhang Ergou, what are you yelling for? You're trying to scare someone to death..." a group of people shouted.

Upon closer inspection, one could see a platform about ten meters square at the end of the cave, covered with a jumble of debris and a corpse, or more accurately, a mummified corpse.

He was wearing armor from some unknown dynasty, and holding a sword in his hand. It was so old that the sword had lost its luster and was covered in rust.

Everyone looked at each other, then turned to Shangguan Yun.

Shangguan Yun thought to herself, "Why are you looking at me? I don't know either."

But still pretending to be full of confidence, he circled the mummified corpse twice and said:

"As everyone can see, this cave is extremely well hidden. There are many small holes inside. It was dug in a very standardized and clean manner, and the drainage system is also very well done."

It is highly likely that this was an ancient warehouse used to store supplies, specifically military supplies.

We'll go into the small holes on either side and take a look; we might find something. This man looks like a general; it seems he was likely defeated in battle and hid here, where he died from his injuries.

Look, one of his leg bones is broken, the other is intact. This place has clearly never been entered before, so it's impossible that he was injured after entering. He must have been injured and then ran in...

Shangguan Yun analyzed with great enthusiasm, and everyone nodded frequently, thinking to themselves, "As expected of the instructor, he is indeed cultured and knowledgeable..."

After Shangguan Yun finished speaking, everyone split up to search for clues.

Sure enough, they found some rotting things in the small caves of different sizes—clothes, blankets, rice, weapons, armor...

However, they were all so rotten that they were unusable.

Shangguan Yun then ordered everyone to collect and bury the general's remains, as they appeared to be dressed in ancient Han Chinese attire.

Considering its geographical location, it must have been a place where people fought against foreign tribes, which inevitably evokes feelings of admiration and respect.

Afterwards, Gao Wei and Zhang Zhenfei led two platoons of soldiers to clean up and tidy up the cave.

Shangguan Yun instructed them to build a road from the cave to the mountain stronghold as soon as possible, making sure it was as flat as possible, so that a large amount of supplies could be transported there in the future.

The group split up and went their separate ways, while Shangguan Yun returned to the mountain stronghold to report the situation to the chief.

He also instructed Lao Huang to organize people to transport all the unused supplies, such as firewood, rice, oil, salt, ammunition, and other miscellaneous items.
