For the sake of Mrs. Dan Tai who came from afar, Tang Dao, 60 miles of mountain road, had to wait for two days to return.

Before entering Dakouzidong Town, Tang Dao asked all the guards to return to the base with their maids and servants, and he took Xia Dayu to accompany Dan Tai Mingyue and his family of four, and walked on the fairly flat mountain road.

Tang Dao's thoughts are not difficult to guess. He wanted his mother-in-law to see. The Four-Road Group station he had been working hard for a year was thriving, and her baby daughter would not suffer much.

After all, he has seen many glooms occasionally arise between his mother-in-law's eyebrows after being happy.

Old Dantai was very satisfied with the arrangement of his son-in-law. He comforted his wife a lot, but as the saying goes, it is better to see him than to hear a hundred times. Let his wife go and see him by himself, which is better than to comfort him a hundred times.

Mrs. Dan Tai is such a smart person. Seeing that her husband strongly recommends her to take a walk and loosen her muscles, she even took out the "flattering" expression that fooled her when she was young, regardless of her children and son-in-law. How could she not know the intentions of the two men of the old and the young?

I sighed slightly in my heart and agreed, but I disagreed more.

Taihang Mountain is not poor, but it is absolutely steep. In the future, it is a scenery everywhere. But for a mother, she only feels that her precious daughter, who was in a rich and frugal life in such an environment, had to risk her life to fight against the Japanese army. That day, she would not have to be bitter about Coptis chinensis?

In a mountainous town, can it be compared with the small bridges and flowing water families in the south of the Yangtze River?

But the situation in Dakouzidong Town is obviously a bit different from what Mrs. Dan Tai imagined.

The ruins are still broken, and the most prosperous old street in the town will never exceed one mile. For Mrs. Dan Tai, who is used to the prosperity of the world, this is a typical remote place.

But it is not depressing here. The old street is full of goods. In addition to the necessary daily necessities, there are even hawkers such as pancakes and candy blowers.

There were people coming and going on the old streets. In addition to the common people, there were many soldiers strolling among them, buying supplies with the ocean.

In this battle in southeastern Shanxi, the Japanese army, which suffered heavy losses, were no longer able to invade Taihang Mountain in the short term. All the troops of Taihang Mountain are basically preparing for this rare and quiet New Year.

Chinese soldiers are not robots, and they need rest in both physical and mental aspects. This month is a rare time for various departments of Taihang Mountain to recuperate. Even the Four Army Group will start to have holidays for the troops this week and no longer organize a lot of training.

Many soldiers wanted to salute after seeing Tang Dao and Tan Tai Mingyue who had already changed into casual clothes, but Tang Dao waved his hand and refused.

The beautiful face of the company commander Dan Tai Mingyue was even more golden signboard in the Four Lines. When they saw that the regiment commander and she were walking together in casual clothes, the soldiers probably knew that the couple who were about to marry might have wanted to pass through the two worlds, so they were tactful and stopped disturbing them.

This also made Tang Dao and others not reveal their identities, otherwise, people on this street would have come. Tang Tuanzuo was almost mythical in the eyes of the people of Dakouzidong Town.

However, few people can see Tang Dao. Who knows that Tang Dao is a young boy who is only 23 years old and is standing next to them.

Although Tang Dao and his six members looked like they were not simple, in the past six months, the merchants who came to Dakouzidong Town have not been young, especially those bosses who betrothed their daughters to officers of the Four-League Corps, and some even moved their families.

On weekdays, the wives and ladies of the big families also come to the old streets to buy goods, so they do not seem too abrupt.

It would be fine if there were too many products and there were many people. To Mrs. Dan Tai’s surprise, the people here were smiling. Even an old woman in a bad dress took out a few copper coins and bought a steaming steamed bun for her grandson. Seeing her grandson feasting, her old face showed happiness.

This is very different from what Mrs. Dan Tai saw along the way, who had walked for at least two thousand kilometers during the turbulent year, with numb and empty eyes hanging on her face.

"Mom, that grandma's son is a soldier who joined my Four Army Corps 8 months ago." Dan Tai Mingyue explained softly in her ear when she saw her mother's eyes falling on the worn-out old woman.

"Oh? That must have been a meritorious service, otherwise why did this old sister still keep a smile when she lived a difficult life?" Mrs. Dan Tai showed a faint smile on her face.

"Making meritorious service means making meritorious service, but the old lady's son died in the battle in Jindong in September." Dan Tai Mingyue's voice couldn't help but lowered.

The reason why Dan Tai Mingyue remembered this old woman was that she watched the old woman refuse her son and comrades to see her off in the martyrs' cemetery, and stubbornly left her back with her grandson who was less than 5 years old.

That scene was hard to forget.

"Ah? Then don't your group have any pensions? How can the elderly and children live?" Mrs. Dan Tai's eyes suddenly widened and her brows frowned.

Tang Dao finally knew where the heroic spirit in Dan Tai Mingyue’s eyebrows came from, and it must not come from the handsome father-in-law who was in the bookish spirit.

"Xia Dayu, check it out, what's going on? The pension for the martyrs in the Battle of Jindong should have been in place long ago!" Tang Dao's eyes couldn't help but become sharp.

The somewhat frightened old woman and the ignorant little boy were soon taken to Tang Dao and others by Xia Dayu.

"Old sister, don't be afraid. We just want to ask, have you not received the military's pension? If not, we will make the decision for you." Mrs. Dan Tai comforted softly.

"Who are you? Why are you asking this?" When he heard this, the old woman looked alert, turned her head and looked at the soldiers standing on the street.

It was clearly regarded Tang Dao and his group as spies from outside, which was obviously due to the promotion of the local people by the Sixing Group over the past year.

The people of Dakouzidong Town are now comparable to the future Chaoyang aunt. Almost no outsider can hide it from them. This year, no spy sent by the Military Control Commission, and more than a hundred traitors who worked for the Japanese have been caught.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Don't worry, we are not bad guys." Dan Tai Mingjing quickly explained.

"Bad people never say they are bad people!" The timid little boy said.

This is nothing wrong with everyone's words.

"Auntie, I am Tang Dao. This is my family. You can answer truthfully. If anyone is sorry for you, I will make the decision for you." Tang Dao could only say.

"Are you Captain Tang?" The old woman looked disbelief and stared at Tang Dao for a long time. "It seems to be a bit like that."

"Hehe, old sister, I'll tell you! This is my son-in-law Tang Dao, that is my wife, daughter Dan Tai Mingyue and son Dan Tai Mingjing. Even if someone wants to pretend, can you still pretend to be our family?" The handsome old man Dan Tai said with a smile.

"Oh! You are Director Dan Tai." The old woman nodded repeatedly. "I have seen you when you were painting on the mountain."

"Wake it! It turns out that my old face is effective. Old sister, don't worry now! You just want to tell me what's going on? If there is any problem, I will make the decision for you." The handsome old man Dan Tai is so arrogant now.

This shows that among the people, his face is better than that of a son-in-law who is a long one.

"Yes! Auntie, it's been closed in recent years. Why don't you change yourself and the little guy into new clothes? Is the pension not enough?" Tang Dao asked softly.

"Enough, enough, it's 150 oceans! Speaking of this, I really thank Captain Tang and the Four-Search Group." The old woman replied quickly.

But soon, the old woman's voice fell down, and tears burst into her eyes: "But my son's pension was exchanged for my life. I, as a mother, can't bear to be moved."

For a moment, everyone was speechless, and tears appeared in Mrs. Dan Tai's eyes.

She is a mother, how could she not understand? The son whom she raised with great effort turned into a handful of loess in a blink of an eye, leaving only these 150 oceans. For mothers, it seems that they are consuming their son's flesh and blood.

"Sister, if you are so hard on yourself and your children, your son will not be at ease even if he is in the underworld." Mrs. Dan Tai advised softly.

"It's not hard, I can do threading work in the town factory. My daughter-in-law also goes to the town elementary school to help with laundry. She has money and rice and flour every month. The army also gives Hu Zi some money every month, so it's okay to support our family of three. Look, I still have the remaining money to buy him steamed buns!" The old woman's head was shaken.

"But, you can't spend money indiscriminately. I don't know when to fight this battle. Hu Zi has to marry a wife when he grows up. We are all used to suffering and don't pay attention to clothes, which makes you worry."

"Auntie! You have to spend some money when you need it. During the New Year, will the troops invite you to the resident to watch the show? Then let your son and his comrades see it, will they be sad?" Tang Dao sighed lightly and advised.

"I have bought some, and I have bought some. My daughter-in-law has already bought new clothes for our family and is waiting to go to the group. We have to go to the Martyrs Cemetery to see Hu Zi's father in the first day of the New Year! We want to make him feel at ease, right?" The old woman nodded repeatedly.

Looking at the old woman's back as she led her grandson away, Mrs. Dan Tai sighed softly: "It's really not easy for us Chinese people!"

But when you look at your son-in-law, you are grateful: "When you see the lives of the common people in this small town, you really have not let your fame down!"

"Madam, I have said a long time ago that my vision of seeking a wife is super first-class. Although it is a little worse in choosing a son-in-law, it can be considered first-class." The handsome old man Dan Tai was so flattered.

All sons and daughters rolled their eyes!

Especially Dan Tai Mingjing, although he has always been afraid of his father, the name of Dad is always a precious daughter, and when he comes to him, he becomes a dog. Can you avoid such a lot of young men?

"My parents, you often teach me that reading thousands of books is worse than traveling thousands of miles. I want to practice with my brother-in-law for a year before going to take the college entrance exam." Dan Tai Mingjing finally plucked up the courage to say on the way back to the station with Tang Dao.

"No!" Dan Tai Yunshu refused without thinking.

His Dan Tai family has contributed a daughter, and even he himself is in the army. If Dan Tai Mingjing comes again, wouldn’t he keep it for his wife without any thoughts?

"Dan Tai Mingjing, it's not that I'm talking about you. I think your brother-in-law has an adjective. Just a little guy, you still want to join the army? Let's practice shooting for a day first, and don't get hurt!" Dan Tai Mingyue turned her mouth and started the crazy attack on her brother mode.

"Then wait for me, Dan Tai Mingyue, I will make you look at me with admiration." Dan Tai Mingjing widened his eyes in anger, responded angrily, and even his sister stopped calling.

"Tsk, wait until you finish practicing before bragging with me! I won't set too much difficulty for you. During the training period of our recruits, we will pass the 50-meter target and 42 rings of the pistol. You only need to use the target and count the number. I will be responsible for helping you convince dad." Dan Tai Mingyue didn't care too much about it, and set a threshold casually, just thinking that it was a young man who was just a little bit.

After all, Tang Dao threw a Black Star Pistol at him when he came up, and the difficulty of handling was different from that of a Japanese turtle box.

Moreover, the Dan Tai family and his party have to return for at most twenty days, so there is no time for him to practice.

Of course, more importantly, what Dan Tai Mingyue said was to persuade her father, but she did not say to persuade her mother, but the one who decided on the major affairs of the Dan Tai family was Mrs. Dan Tai.

The poor young man was obviously so tightly that his sister was still not aware of it. He ran to hug the shoulders of Xia Dayu, a friend of the same age who had just met for two days. It was the rhythm of learning from his master.

Little did they know that although the two were similar in age, their experiences were very different, especially Xia Dayu, who was also a teenager's character. If they really became serious, then Dan Tai Mingjing would not feel good after staying in the Four-Entertainment Group for 20 days.

To practice, you have to practice seriously. No matter how many bullets there are in the Four-Element Group, no one can waste it. This is also the rule of the Four-Element Group.

Tang Dao didn't care. He didn't want to keep a weak brother-in-law by his side. It would be best to let him retreat. If this little guy gritted his teeth and practiced something, that would be great.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! In this chaotic world, calligraphy and painting cannot save lives, but the marksmanship is OK.

Even Tang Dao has been arranged. The four armed servants of the Dan Tai family have received special training from Uncle Han after the New Year. They are all equipped with semi-automatic rifles and black star pistols before leaving. In this way, they have certain self-protection capabilities when encountering emergencies.

The thug gun with a range of only more than 100 meters is now basically equipped with militia units in the Four Lines Regiment, and it will be completely eliminated from the regular army immediately.

When he entered the Four-Road Group Station about 3 kilometers away from the town, Mrs. Dan Tai and her party were really shocked.

After a year of development, the current Sihang Regiment's garrison is no longer the situation where the straw huts were everywhere in the past, and soldiers almost slept on the ground.

Nowadays, wooden houses stand among the forests, and there is a stream winding in the base. Although the stream is marked by manual digging at a glance, it is enough to introduce it with enough water.

If it weren't for the fact that there were air defenses and bunker fortifications everywhere on the hills and the training grounds everywhere and the soldiers patrolling with guns, Mrs. Dan Tai would have thought she had entered a vacation manor.

"Mom! This is only part of the garrison, with only one battalion and regiment headquarters about a thousand people here." Dan Tai Mingyue smiled and helped her mother walk up a small hill and pointed to the distance. "Walking forward 3 miles further is the base of my medical company. There is the factory area and the training ground for the recruits... Don't worry, from here to the mountain pass, everyone is under the protection of the air defense company. If the Japanese plane doesn't come, they will be a small party when they come."

Although I don’t know how powerful the Four-Road Air Defense Company is, the rows of wooden houses and factories hidden in the valley in front of me are real, shocking Mrs. Dan Tai and Dan Tai Mingjing.

This is not like a military camp, it is completely a large military base. A strict and vibrant military base built deep in the mountains.

Although they don’t know much about military affairs, they are all cultural people who have read a lot of books. Naturally, they know how big the scale of this station is.

At least, this is definitely not something that I remember that a group of more than 2,000 people could hold on.

Perhaps, the secret of the Four-Road Group winning every battle is in this huge station covered by mountains and forests.

This may be the power of knowledge and insight. The mother and son who arrived here guessed at least half of them.

The virtuous cycle formed by perfect logistics support and economic pull around the resident is one of the reasons why the Sihang Team has strong combat power.
