I traveled through time, starting with two acres of land and a dog

Du Chenyu opened the letter and saw a few words inside, "Mr. Chenyu, my team bought a batch of arms in Chenggu County, Hanzhong, including 20 rifles, 2 box guns, 3000 rounds of ammunition, and other supplies. I divided it into three batches for transportation, with each team about 1 kilometer apart, with 7-8 people in each team. In Qingfenglin, which is more than 10 kilometers away from the pass, the rear team was attacked by more than 40 people with machine guns and grenades. When I arrived with the middle team in less than a quarter of an hour, the rear team had been wiped out and were cleaning up the battlefield. The other side had more people and we were unable to attack, so we could only join the front team, hold on to the supplies and wait for reinforcements, and collect the bodies of the rear team. Urgent... Urgent... Respectfully presented by Wang Shouyi!" He finished reading it in an instant.

Du Chenyu handed the letter to his father and asked him to read it out in public and inform everyone on the spot.

Everyone was furious when they heard this! This was also the biggest accident, with casualties similar to those in a major war.

"Master Chenyu, give the orders. I, Hu Laosi, am afraid that I will be the first to rush up. Damn him." As the top general, Hu Laosi has the most seniority and the strongest combat power, so he is almost always the first to speak out.

"I agree with Brother Hu. We must let them know how powerful we are," Xue Chen also answered first. He was sitting next to Hu Laosi.

"I agree to fight back... I agree to fight back..." Most people advocated sending troops immediately.

"Hui Yu...what's your opinion?" he asked when he saw that he was not in a hurry to express his opinion.

"Master Chenyu, I don't think this was done by bandits. As someone who has experienced the combat effectiveness of our team, I can say for sure that even if our caravan is not as combat effective as the official team, it is still better than the combat effectiveness of ordinary bandits. It must be the elite regular army and the family servants to wipe out all eight members in a short period of time." Peng Huiyu is the person with the most say in their team. The authorities are confused, but the bystanders are clear. In fact, he still cannot judge the combat effectiveness of his own team, so he has always kept a low profile. Hearing that he looks at the situation of the Du family team from a professional perspective, it should be more accurate.

"If you know yourself and your enemy, you can fight a hundred battles without danger of defeat," Shen Shiyu said calmly. As a military advisor, he reminded them in time that most people who read books are rational and a little indifferent.

This explains why Liu Bowen and the Huaixi noble group were at loggerheads in the early Ming Dynasty. The scholar's aloof appearance was particularly offensive.

Shen Shiyu's light words made everyone look at him, extinguishing the anger in the room.

"Mr. Shen, please continue," he looked at Shen.

"Mr. Chenyu is more sober than anyone else. I won't add anything. It's just that we have to be careful when dealing with a team with machine guns and grenades. We can't be careless," he said slowly.

Most expressed an opinion.

"Does anyone have any opinions on this matter?" Seeing that no one continued to respond, he asked again.

"Father, it's your turn," he asked.

"You arrange it. Generally speaking, it's better to be cautious and not to force it," my father said tactfully.

"Okay, the previous meeting agenda has been completed. Everyone go back and prepare to form their own troops. Once spring plowing is completed, they will immediately start training. All troops must be formed by mid-May of the Gregorian calendar. There must be no delay," he summarized the previous meeting.

"He Chaowu"

"exist……"

"You lead the 24 members of the special service team and the reconnaissance team at home, and immediately ride on horseback to Taoyuan as quickly as possible to meet Wang Shouyi's caravan," he ordered.

"Yes," He Chaowu answered and turned to leave.

"Hu Haisheng"

"exist"

"Your team is complete. I'll give you one hour to gather the local troops. You will set off with him immediately after lunch. The rest of you must prepare for joint defense and not let the bandits take advantage of the situation," he made the final arrangements.

"Yes," everyone stood up and answered.

After lunch, they set off with a medical team of three people, a logistics team of 3 people, a squadron of Hu Laosi, and a guard team of 20 people, carrying enough ammunition. They only brought extra explosive packs and mines, as they were not enough bullets. They only took two light machine guns.

This was the first expedition, and two hours later the troops had lunch and lined up to set off.

"Let's go," he said softly.

Last year, he organized more than a hundred people to repair this Micang Avenue. At that time, the main section was still under the control of Yu Yuedong, so the progress of the project was limited and only simple repairs were carried out.

It was already 11 o'clock in the evening when we arrived at Taoyuan by forced march. We traveled about 40 to 50 kilometers that day and set up camp in Zhengjiadi. According to the news sent back, He Chaowu had been met by Wang Shouyi's transport team and had now returned to the Taoyuan stronghold.

At 7 o'clock the next day, their two teams met not far from Taoyuan. From afar, they saw a dozen people in front carrying the bodies of the deceased team members, all on stretchers and covered with cloth.

"Everyone, salute, let's see off the deceased team member." Everyone stood on the side of the road and took off their hats and saluted.

"Mr. Chenyu, I'm sorry. I failed on my first mission," Wang Shouyi ran over with a hunched back, crying, his thin face still covered with tears.

"Uncle Wang, what did you say? You have done a great job in minimizing the losses, but the enemy is too powerful," he said comfortingly.

"Mr. Chenyu, I have betrayed your trust. I brought more than 20 people with me, but failed to protect the reputation of my brothers," he continued wiping his tears.

"Uncle Wang, don't be too sad. I couldn't have predicted this. Each of the deceased team members will receive a 10-dollar pension, and their families will be taken care of as martyrs," he arranged.

"Okay, I'd like to thank Master Chenyu on behalf of my brothers and their families," said Wang Shouyi.

"You go and arrange for the escort, and then take the guns and caravan members we purchased this time and move with us. I want them to see that no matter what happens, we must avenge ourselves," he ordered.

After he finished explaining everything, he returned to them and watched the team transporting the bodies leave and cross the ridge.

"Come on, Uncle Wang, tell me about the attack," he said.

"Master Chenyu, this is what happened. We...after the people from the Taoyuan stronghold came to pick us up, I went to the battle scene to check it out. So, I judge that they caught up with us from behind and surrounded us on three sides. They didn't ambushed us in advance. The cavalry on the road fired light machine guns. The people who attacked us were either regular troops or local officials in uniform and joint defense teams." The first part of the incident was similar to what was reported, but the latter part was his own opinion.

They went into the mountains not far from Taoyuan, where they had opened up roads for hunting and attacking Huangguan Town. They sent a guard team to contact He Chaowu to investigate the situation.

After entering Shaanxi and going a few kilometers deep, we temporarily set up camp. We waited for the investigation team to come back and then took the next step.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, He Chaowu came back to report: "According to the investigation, the attack on their caravan was done by the Yan family of Huangguan Town. They dispatched more than 60 cavalry and infantry to chase them throughout the city. All of them were masked, but they did not hide their whereabouts. But why did they chase us and how did they know the route of our caravan? This is the key issue," said He Chaowu.

"Why didn't they continue to pursue the team, and why the rest of them were able to escape unscathed?" he asked.

"According to Captain Wang and the caravan members, although the enemy had cavalry and machine guns, our members used explosives to destroy the light machine gunners and cavalry in the first round of counterattack, which frustrated the attack and forced us to surround them on three sides. The enemy shouted for surrender, but the last few members of our team swore to fight to the death and ended up throwing out the explosive packs on their bodies, resulting in more than a dozen casualties on the other side. Before and after this battle, the other side also suffered nearly 20 casualties. They did not continue to pursue the rest of our team because they were scared and could not accept further losses, so they retreated," explained He Chaowu.

"Let's not talk about other things for now. Find out the situation of the Yan family immediately and be prepared to pay blood debt with blood," Du Chenyu said fiercely at last.
