  A white cloth with a written charm was thrown to the ground, and a young man turned his head in shame and walked away. Then another one, someone was too ashamed to make a sound, quietly walking out, the charm secretly thrown underfoot. Those old men, women, and wives who had kowtowed and burned incense a few days ago were now even more ashamed, hanging their heads in shame and dispersing in all directions.

  Li Dahuai's family rushed over upon hearing the news, wailing around the lifeless body and kicking and scolding Tian Shi and others.

  You reap what you sow, and can't live. If you had been more honest and obedient, you wouldn't have lost your life so early. Meng You Tian waved his hand, leading the village protection team to take away Tian Shi and others from here. Not only did he thwart Liu Li Hui's attempt to intervene in Shili Village, but also eliminated the obstacles that controlled the village government. Meng You Tian's plan of killing two birds with one stone can be considered a great success. In fact, even he may not have expected it to go so smoothly?

  ……………

  The short daylight of early winter has already become very brief, and the night falls early. The six Li's gathering in Shili Village was a collapse, and Village Chief Li Dahui also died. I don't know how many families are discussing today's events under the dim light, worrying about their own future. In the village public house, Meng You Tian is having wine and chatting with Xiao Guang He, this isn't just a courtesy of the landlord, all the wine and dishes were paid for by Xiao Guang He.

  "Meng brothers, I'm really happy today. It's been a long time since I've had such a great time." Xiao Guang and Hehe clinked glasses and downed their drinks in one gulp.

  Meng You Tian just took a sip to accompany him, and didn't drink much. He asked with concern: "Fourth Master, it's getting cold soon, will the Jiulong Hall still go east to fight against the devils?"

  "It's freezing cold, but it's still better than Kanto, right?" Xiao Guang and shook his head indifferently, saying: "This road has been explored, leaving a day early will make us more stable. This world is changing fast, if we delay, who knows what kind of people will appear."

  Meng You Tian nodded slightly, got up and took a few four-angle nails, brought them back to hand over to Xiao Guang And said: "Originally wanted to send it to the fourth master later, but our village's ironwork shop is too small, with too few people, production can't be increased. I was thinking that Jiulong Tang has many people and money, occupying a large area, finding several more ironwork shops to manufacture, so as not to delay important matters."

  "This is..." Xiao Guang was fiddling with a four-cornered nail, when the door creaked and Liu Feng walked in.

  This girl didn't stand on ceremony either, directly sitting down at the table, picking up her chopsticks and pinching a big chicken thigh, stuffing it into her mouth and chomping away.

  "Haha, this is our Jiulong Tang's Golden Phoenix, the pride of Liu Daxia's family, Miss Liu Fengliu. Xiao Guanghe smiled helplessly and made the introduction to Meng You Tian, "As it happens, we do have a bit of a connection!"

  "It's two-faced." Liu Feng rolled her eyes and said vaguely: "The first time was him and his mistress pulling a wooden frame cart, the second time was Liang Gang Zhuang, that, ah, hmm!"

  "Yes, Miss Liu's memory is really good." Meng You Tian smiled and said: "In Liang Gang Village, Miss Liu was seriously ill, but now she has fully recovered, it's truly heartening."

  "My niece is a tomboy, very bold and uninhibited." Xiao Guanghe's attention was again focused on the four-cornered nail in his hand, speculating as he said: "Iron thistle? I've only seen it in ancient books, don't know if it's really this thing."

  "It should be something similar, right? If you scatter it on the road, it'll look like this." Meng You Tian wasn't too sure if iron caltrops and four-cornered nails were the same thing either. He casually picked up a four-cornered nail, held it in his hand, and gently tossed it, making the nail land on the table surface. Then, he picked it up again and threw it once more.

  "Oh, there's always a sharp end pointing up." Xiao Guanghe saw the trick and flipped the four-cornered nail on the table a few times, laughing: "So that's it, no need to bury, just scatter them on the road, can hinder the enemy's action, very convenient!"

  "It's mainly for dealing with enemy tanks." Meng You Tian further explained: "It should also have some effect on infantry, I haven't tried it, not good to say."

  Liu Feng threw the chicken bones on the table, picked up the four-cornered nail and fiddled with it for a while, tilting his head to look at Meng You Tian and said: "Meng Xiaozi, why are you so bad? Liu Li Zi was ruined, and this Japanese will also suffer."

  Meng You Tian rolled his eyes and said, "This is called strategy, big sister. We've also fought against the Japanese before. If we don't use some clever tactics, and instead just try to force our way through, do you think our brains are made of steel?"

  "This makes some sense, Meng Xiaozhi, this brain is quite clever, no wonder Fourth Uncle always praises you. Don't dig for food in the dirt and eat it, follow us to Jiulong Tang to eat white noodle rolls and braised pork instead!" Liu Feng nodded, took the bowl, poured himself half a bowl of wine, took a sip, and looked at Meng You Tian.

  "Haha, I'm not capable of that." Meng You Tian replied with a dry laugh.

  "What's wrong with you, can't even eat pork and noodles?" Liu Feng opened his eyes wide, "Don't tell me you look down on us and take us for thieves."

  "That's not it." Meng You Tian shook his head and said, "We know our own abilities, farming is okay, but wielding a gun or stick is just a joke. Besides, my legs aren't agile enough!" This was clearly not what he really thought in his heart. He truly didn't want to stay with these shady heroes, although he admired their boldness and grandeur. History had proven that the Eighth Route Army were the ultimate victors on the battlefield behind enemy lines, but the fate of these irregular armed forces wasn't a pretty one.

  "Who made you hold a gun and wield a stick?" Liu Feng said: "As our teacher, we are well-fed and supported, usually writing and calculating, and even paying wages. As for legs and feet, didn't Zhuge Liang fight while sitting in a chariot? Riding a horse is enough."

  "I have hands and feet, why should I be supported by others." Meng You Tian shook his head and said: "Fighting, there's always victory or defeat. If we're chased by the Japanese, aren't we done for?"

  "Meng Xiaozhi, you don't know what's good for you. Many people are crying and begging to join us, but we're not interested! " Liu Feng pointed at the books on the nearby bookshelf with some anger and said: "If I get angry, I'll burn all these useless books to ashes. I hate scholars the most, they're all show-offs."

  "This guy, what did he do wrong by studying?" Meng You Tian also said with some anger: "Still crying and shouting to join the partnership, our Jiulong Hall now has no more than 200 people at most, how many years have we been struggling, if we don't expand to tens of thousands, it's not worth mentioning."

  "Understand my ass." Liu Feng said disdainfully: "As the saying goes, people are numerous and chaotic, dragons are numerous and dry. Many hens don't lay eggs, many wives make mothers-in-law cook. Big trees attract wind, many soldiers make a chaotic camp. Soldiers are not about quantity but quality, you don't even understand this principle."
