At night, Liu Mazi and the others also quickly left. It was useless for them to continue pestering Ye Fan. The thing he wanted the most now was to leave this graveyard.
"Captain, this is great. These things are enough for the Japanese to drink.”Zhang Shun said with a smile. Everyone was in a good mood now.
However, Ye Fan pondered for a moment and said seriously,"No, we can't use these things now.”
"What? Why?"
"That's right. We can't waste these good things!”
Suddenly, the soldiers looked at Ye Fan in confusion. Only Lu Cheng, who knew Ye Fan well, coughed and asked in a low voice,"What's wrong? Scholar, what do you think?"
Looking at the weapons in front of him, Ye Fan said,"We are going to ambush Zhu Tang. If we take these things, not only will it be inconvenient, even if we really take them, we won't dare to use them.”
Everyone looked at Ye Fan and did not say anything. They just waited for Ye Fan to explain.
"Think about it. Old Fujiwara was ordered to fish in troubled waters from behind Changshu and wanted to attack from both sides. Our main goal is to surround Wei to save Zhao, not to kill.”
"We just need to hold them off for now. After the Jiangyin army has finished attacking and defending, the Qingyang garrison will also withdraw. If we use these powerful weapons too early, Tengyuan will definitely send people back at the first moment.”
"Think about it, can we fight the Japanese now? Of course not, we will be completely wiped out in less than an hour. At that time, Tengyuan will still have enough time to attack Qing Yang.”
"So, we can't use these weapons, at least not for this operation!”
Hearing Ye Fan's analysis, everyone nodded. Although it was a pity, they still had to complete the mission first.
"What about this batch of weapons?" Lu Cheng took out a cigarette and started smoking.
Ye Fan looked around. This place was not far from Zhu Tang, but they did not know the actual situation of Zhu Tang at all, so they could not let Zhu Tang go.
"In the countryside. Find a farmer's house to stay for the night.”
After making up his mind, Ye Fan looked at the time. It was exactly eight o'clock in the evening."We have to return here in a little while. At that time, the Japanese army in Zhutang will definitely be the most relaxed. In other words, we still have five hours to prepare.”
"Understood!" Everyone said in unison. Then, each of them picked up a weapon and left.
Speaking of which, it was quite a coincidence. Old Cat said that he had been to this area before and knew where was the safest, so Old Cat led the team away.
Ye Fan was naturally happy. In the beginning, no one was willing to take Old Cat, but now? Tomcat seemed to be very useful!
The rain gradually lessened, but the road was still wet and slippery. It was only eight o'clock, but the farmers outside had already turned off their lights. Many of the farmers were even empty.
The Battle of Jiangyin was about to begin, and the news of the Battle of Songhu not long ago had shocked the entire country. It was still ongoing, so the farmers in this area basically did not leave their homes or had already left.
Natural and man-made disasters. After a war, the ones who suffered were the unarmed civilians.
"Captain, let me tell you, you came to the right place this time. I used to wander around this area. I remember there was a family not far ahead. The head of the family was a butcher. I used to avoid trouble with him.”
Ye Fan glanced at Old Cat,"You're such a slippery person. Who dares to provoke you?" Isn't he afraid that his ancestral grave will be emptied?"
Old Cat's smile immediately disappeared when he heard that. He put on a bitter face."Company commander, you can't say that about me. I'm a man of experience. You're insulting me!”
"You little thief, you still have manners? You've thrown away the face of scholars!”Zhang De, who was standing at the side, suddenly said.
He was still unhappy with Old Cat. Back then, he and Zhang Shun had wanted to go to the front lines to resist the Japanese. However, they had met Old Cat. Back then, Old Cat had patted his chest and said that he would handle this matter. However, he had run away and even cheated them of many things.
"I'm a disgrace to all scholars? What about you guys? He even claimed to be an advanced university student, but wasn't he still played around by a thief who had lost all the face of scholars?”
Old Cat was also not convinced by Zhang De and said in a tit-for-tat manner. It turned out that without Ye Fan's protection, he was really afraid of these two people. However, it was different now. At most, they would quarrel.
"What did you say?"
"I was talking about you!"
"Try saying it again."
.......
Looking at the few people who were teasing them, everyone laughed out loud. Needless to say, with such a clown on the road, the journey would not be boring.
As they chatted and laughed, they arrived at a small village. The entire village was pitch-black, and only a faint light could be seen.
"Hehe, Company Commander, we're here. That damned brat is still so bold. He's never been afraid of anyone.”Tomcat said as it looked at the only farmer with a dim light.
