Chapter 425: See how his team trains
Que Dongjin was naturally happy when he saw that most of the members of his female super action team followed him to the cave. However, it was a pity that there was a Japanese spy among the team members, and this person was the woman he loved.
Que Dongjin will no longer love Li Lexuan, and he certainly can't just stay depressed like this. He has to start re-examining his female teammates.
Que Dongjin knew that Wang Xueliu was the best team member, but Wang Xueliu was too stable and older than himself, so she was not suitable to be his girlfriend. Qin Shili and Xie Mengqi already had partners, so he quickly ruled out these three women.
After Que Dongjin ruled out these three women , he began to compare Wang Hanyu, Qing Chunxiu, Ai Lian, Xiao Huxian and others. However, after thinking about these female team members in his mind, he did not feel any impulse. He thought, forget it, let's just let nature take its course!
Que Dongjin stopped thinking about his emotional problems and his thoughts turned to fighting the Japanese. He thought, the Japanese will definitely not let Ou Laosan and his team go. Will the Japanese attack the village again? Did Li Lexuan tell Colonel Mu Teng about Ou Laosan and his team returning to the village? Also, did she tell Colonel Mu Teng about her own affairs? If she did, Colonel Mu Teng would know the strength of this team, which would be very disadvantageous to him.
When Que Dongjin thought about this, he began to regret letting Li Lexuan go.
"Captain Que, we found a small group of people coming towards our cave!" Qin Shili, who was in charge of keeping watch, ran back and said to Que Dongjin who was feeling regretful.
"How many people are there?" Que Dongjin was shocked. Could it be that Li Lexuan had informed on him, and she had even guessed the approximate location of his place?
"I think there are only about twenty people." Qin Shili said.
"Little devils?"
"I haven't figured this out yet. I just ran back when I saw a figure. I was afraid it was the Japanese vanguard troops coming to report the news first." Qin Shili said.
"Okay, let's go and take a look!" said Que Dongjin.
Everyone quickly picked up their weapons and followed Qin Shili out of the cave. After leaving the cave, Que Dongjin reminded everyone not to shoot easily and not to alert the enemy without his orders.
Que Dongjin and Qin Shili walked quickly and stealthily until they could see the person coming. Then they hid themselves, and Que Dongjin began to observe the person carefully with a telescope.
There were indeed only about twenty people coming, and they were dressed in messy clothes. They didn't look like Japanese soldiers, but more like bandits. Could there be bandits in this area?
Que Dongjin found that the weapons of the people coming were not very sophisticated, and their steps were a bit sloppy. If the Japanese were coming to scout in plain clothes, they would not carry such broken weapons, and they would not walk so sloppily. It seemed that this was indeed a team without formal training. They were either bandits or the security team of a wealthy family nearby.
However, the security team of a wealthy family would not travel through such a mountain! When Que Dongjin thought about this, he found that those people did not walk directly towards the cave. They began to change direction and walked towards the forest on the right side of the cave.
"Captain Que, they are not coming for us." Qin Shili said.
"They are not Japanese devils. Send a few people to follow them and find out where they are coming from. But don't engage in a firefight with them easily. Chinese people cannot fight against Chinese people," said Que Dongjin.
"What if they are bandits who endanger the people?" Wang Xueliu asked.
"Well..." Que Dongjin hesitated for a moment, then said, "Forget it, I'll go myself. Zhang Dahu, Jiang Wukui, the two of you follow me, and the rest of you go back to the cave, and Qin Shili will continue to be on guard."
"I'm worried about you three going alone." Wang Xueliu said.
"What's there to worry about? Take them back to the cave. I won't have a head-on firefight with these people. Also, we may not be able to come back for a while, so I have to find out their background." Que Dongjin said.
"At night, someone has to come back to inform us, so that we can feel at ease," said Wang Xueliu.
"You are really fussy. Also, take two more people with you. Little Fox Fairy and Zhang Li, you two can follow. There will be five of us now. You should be relieved now, right?" Que Dongjin looked at Wang Xueliu.
"I'm relieved." Wang Xueliu smiled.
"Look, we have more people than you do, but you're still not reassured?" Que Dongjin said.
"I'm also doing this for your safety. Don't be like this, Captain Que." Wang Xueliu said with a smile.
Que Dongjin looked at Wang Xueliu and said to himself, I know you care about me, but you should trust me more.
"Okay, let's go back to the cave." Wang Xueliu said as she led Xie Mengqi and the others towards the cave.
"Let's go and follow them." Que Dongjin said as he walked towards the group of people.
Que Dongjin guessed correctly, this group of people were indeed not the Japanese devils, but they were not good people either. They were a group of bandits. The leader of the bandits was named Hua Baozi. He had leopard prints tattooed on his body and was cruel and ruthless. He specialized in robbing passing merchants or rich people in the villages. He could be considered a fierce bandit, but not an unforgivable bandit. He did not kill innocent people indiscriminately or rob women.
Que Dongjin followed them for several miles and found that they were heading towards the village where Ou Laosan was originally stationed. He wondered, could it be that these bandits knew Ou Laosan and his men and came to join him?
Of course, the Leopards didn't know Ou Laosan, but they had heard of Ou Laosan's name and knew that Ou Laosan had been very good at fighting the Japanese recently, so they did come to Ou Laosan for help.
Huabaozi was tired from walking. He looked at the twenty or so weak brothers and said, "I'm tired! Let's take a rest!"
"Boss, we won't run into the Japanese in this mountain, right?" A man walked up to Hua Baozi and said.
"You idiot, are you scared by the Japanese? Damn it, it's just that we lost more than a dozen brothers. We also killed several Japanese soldiers!" said the Leopard.
"I'm not afraid of the Japs. I think it will be safer for them to rest there if they find Ou Lao San. I heard that the Japs are afraid of Ou Lao San!" said the man.
"When we came here, didn't we hear that Ou Laosan's people were also surrounded and attacked by the Japanese? It's not easy to find them. Let's take a break first!" said Huabaozi.
"Ou Laosan is really capable. He was able to break out even with so many Japanese troops surrounding him." The man was probably the second in command and spoke casually to Hua Baozi.
"Xiongmaozi, you are right. Otherwise, why would I come to join him? Xiongmaozi, I am a man and my team is well-known in the Jinghe area. But why are we so weak when fighting against the Japanese? The Japanese devils are really capable! Ou Laosan can scare the Japanese. He is really amazing. I want to meet him and see how his team is trained." said Huabaozi.
"Boss, you said that if we go to Old Third Ou, he will have to give you a seat in power anyway! But, won't I just be an ordinary soldier under him?" said Xiongmaozi.
"You gave it to your grandmother! Are you always thinking about that chair? Otherwise, if we don't go to him, will you still be your second in command?" The leopard said loudly.
"No, no, no. Big brother has condescended to join him, so I don't care what position he gives me. As long as big brother thinks highly of me, that's enough." said Xiongmaozi.
"I think you are afraid of the Japanese and want to seek protection from Old Three Ou! I tell you, if we go there, no matter whether I can sit on the throne or not, we will be dependent on others. You and your brothers should restrain yourself and don't let others laugh at us for having no rules!" said the Leopard.
"Of course, we will pay attention to it ! But we can't just be so servile!" said Panda.
"Xiangmao, what are you thinking about? What do you mean by groveling? Now that you have joined them, we are all family and brothers. The right thing to do is to fight the Japanese together! Otherwise, how can you avenge my dozen or so brothers?" said Huabaozi.
"Captain Que, these people are not that bad. Although they are bandits, I think we can still make friends with them. Let's go out and recruit them to expand our team!" said Zhang Dahu.
"Keep your voice down and don't alarm them! All Chinese people hate the Japanese. We can't recruit them to expand our team. They are heading for Ou Lao San, and we can't be disloyal." Que Dongjin said.
"What do you mean we are targeting Ou Laosan? They don't know that we helped Ou Laosan fight the Japanese." Jiang Wukui said.
"How can you talk like that? Didn't you see that he let his own people go for the breakout this time? Ou Laosan is a man, don't talk about them like that!" Que Dongjin glared at Jiang Wukui.
"Are we still following them ?" The little fox fairy nudged Que Dongjin with his elbow.
"Follow them, we don't know much about them yet. It seems that they came from Jinghe River, fought a battle with the Japanese there, and came here to join Ou Laosan because they were exhausted. If we follow them, we can help them in case they encounter any special situations. After all, they are a team fighting the Japanese. Besides, didn't Ou Laosan lose more than a dozen brothers? It would be great if they come to supplement Ou Laosan's team." Que Dongjin said.
"Captain Que, I think our team should be expanded so that we can accomplish great things." said the little fox fairy.
"I haven't thought about this." Que Dongjin said.
"Wang Xueliu hasn't thought about it either?" The little fox fairy turned her head and looked at Que Dongjin.
"She didn't tell me." Que Dongjin said.
When the little fox fairy saw the leopard stand up, she stopped talking.
"Brothers, let's go! We can't rest for too long. A break can refresh you, but if you rest for too long you will lose your energy." said the Leopard.
"Boss, we don't know where Ou Laosan is. Are we just going to wander around like this? What if we run into the Japanese who come to wipe out Ou Laosan, won't we become scapegoats?" A man stood up and said.
"What did you say? If you try to shake the morale of the army again, I will kill you!" said the Leopard.
"Brother, calm down. He was just talking. It's a bit casual for us to look for Ou Lao San in this way." Xiongmaozi said.
