Under One Person: I am the Master of Maoshan

At night, Shen Yan and Li Yunlong followed the Red Army soldiers who came to support them to the defense zone. Several people were arranged in a relatively large cave. Soon someone brought some food.

Shen Yan saw the big bowl of millet porridge, potato chips and sweet potatoes. After a tiring day, several people were holding their bowls and wolfing down the food.

"Xiao Shen, are you used to eating this? You behave like a rich young master. It must be hard for you to eat all this," Li Yunlong asked while eating.

Shen Yan smiled and said, "That's great, Captain." In the mountains, Shen Yan also had simple meals every day, and sometimes they were not even as good as this meal.

"Li Datou, you are still alive, hahahaha"

A muffled shout was heard outside, and a man from the northwest walked into the house with a pipe in his hand.

"Old Kong, Kong Erlengzi, why are you here?" Li Yunlong hugged Kong Jie.

"I came to Yan'an for a meeting. I heard that you are not dead, so I came to see you."

Li Yunlong curled his lips and said, "The person who can fucking kill me hasn't been born yet. Come, let me introduce him to you."

After that, he pulled Kong Jie over and introduced him to Shen Yan: "This is Kong Jie, my old comrade when I joined the army, an old buddy who went through thick and thin together. He is also the commander of our Red Army."

"This is Shen Yan. You are able to see me thanks to Brother Shen. I killed 20 to 30 fully armed horse bandits with my bare hands."

Kong Jie was a little bit unconvinced after hearing this: "Unarmed, 20 to 30 horse bandits, Lao Li, you must be drunk!"

Li Yunlong laughed and said, "You look like someone who has never seen the world. If you don't believe me, ask my soldiers."

Hu Zi and Yu Chengzhu nearby nodded hurriedly and added to the discussion.

Only then did Kong Jie believe it and stretched out his hands to hold Shen Yan's hands: "Brother Shen, thank you for saving Lao Li. You have such good skills, why don't you work with me?"

Li Yunlong hastily pulled his hand away: "Are you here to poach my people, you f**king Kong Erlangzi? Get lost."

Kong Jie didn't care. At this time, Li Yunlong asked, "I almost forgot about the main thing. Do you know where Political Commissar Luo is now?"

"The old political commissar is in the base. This time our meeting was organized by the old political commissar. He is now our political director."

"That's great." Li Yunlong happily told Kong Jie about Shen Yan's story.

After listening to this, Kong Jie said, "Brother Shen, if you trust me, Kong Jie, please give me the letter. I will hand it over to Director Luo when I return to the base. Tomorrow morning, Lao Li will go to the base to report on his work, and you will go with him."

After listening to it, Shen Yan thought this was a good idea, so he handed the letter to Kong Jie. After they chatted for a while, Kong Jie returned to the base, and Shen Yan and others lay down on the kang to rest.

The next day, when the sun was bright, Shen Yan and his companions washed up, had breakfast, and were chatting in the house when a soldier walked into the house.

"Excuse me, who are Captain Li and Mr. Shen Yan?"

Shen Yan and Li Yunlong stood up. The young soldier saluted Li Yunlong and said, "Hello, Captain Li. Director Luo asked me to lead you and Mr. Shen Yan to the base."

Shen Yan and Li Yunlong followed him to the base. Along the way, Shen Yan saw the difference between the base and the outside world. Jinling City was prosperous but the faces of the people were lifeless, while everyone here had a smile on their face. This smile was called hope.

The young soldier brought the two men to the outside of a cave.

"report"

"Enter"

The young soldier led the two into the cave, and a man with a similar face to the one in the later photos came into Shen Yan's sight. Luo Huan stood up and said, "Li Yunlong..."

"Old Political Commissar" Li Yunlong stood straight and saluted.

Luo patted his mouth and praised him: "I knew you wouldn't die."

Then Luo looked at Shen Yan again: "This is Mr. Shen, right?"

Shen Yan stretched out his hand and shook it with Luo: "Hello, Mr. Luo"

Luo smiled and nodded, then looked at Li Yunlong: "Li Yunlong, go to the Political Department to report the situation. I want to talk to Mr. Xiao Shen alone."

"Yes." Li Yunlong saluted and walked out of the cave.

Luo poured a glass of water for Shen Yan and said, "Mr. Shen, your name is well known in the circle recently. You are the first Maoshan heir to go down the mountain to fight against the Japanese."

Shen Yan blushed but did not feel the presence of Qi from Luo. He did not look like someone from the circle.

"I am not from your circle, but I was close to Liu Wei in the early years, so I am not unfamiliar with your circle. And according to your father, you still have to call me Uncle Luo."

Shen Yan was a little surprised after hearing this, and he took the opportunity to ask: "Uncle Luo, do you know my father?"

"Haha, the holy land is so close to Chang'an. If it weren't for your Shen family's medicine, we don't know how many comrades would have sacrificed. In the entire northwest, where can you get medicine without your Shen family's Baicaotang?" Luo looked at him with a smile.

Shen Yan suddenly realized that he had indeed had too little contact with his family in recent years.

"I'll call you Xiaoyan too. What are your plans?" Luo asked Shen Yan.

Shen Yan quickly replied: "Uncle Luo, I want to join the Red Army, and I want to go to the front line"

Luo nodded: "Your Shen family has made great contributions to the Red Army. The front line is a bit dangerous. If something happens to you, how can I explain to your father?"

Shen Yan chuckled: "Uncle Luo, the war is about to start. Is there any place in China that is not dangerous? And I am quite confident in my methods."

"Okay, in that case, the organization will give you a task."

Shen Yan looked serious after hearing this: "You say"

Luo patted him on the shoulder and said: "The organization hopes that you can absorb more extraordinary people like you and make contributions to the anti-Japanese cause together."

After hearing this, Shen Yan saluted and said, "I promise to complete the task."

Luo looked at him approvingly: "Okay, let's do this. I'll give you two weeks off to go home. I heard that you've only been home a few times in the past ten years. We'll have a war with Japan sooner or later. Go home now and reunite with your father. When you come back, report directly to Li Yunlong."

"Yes, thank you Uncle Luo," Shen Yan grinned.

Shen Yan and Li Yunlong had lunch together at noon. When Li Yunlong heard that Shen Yan would stay under his command, he jumped for joy. After lunch, he personally sent Shen Yan down the mountain.

Shen Yan returned to the foot of the mountain, packed his bags, and headed towards Chang'an City.

Li Yunlong returned to the mountain and was stopped by a soldier.

"Captain Li, Director Luo wants to see you"

Li Yunlong came to the cave: "Report"

Luo and Li Yunlong were the only two people in the room. Luo held a cup of water in his hand and said, "Li Yunlong, I have arranged for Xiao Shen to stay by your side."

Li Yunlong grinned and laughed: "Hehe, maybe it's because the old political commissar cares about me. Thank you, political commissar."

"Stop flattering me, and remember what I'm going to say next."

Li Yunlong sat upright and listened to what Luo said next.

"When Xiao Shen saved you, you could see that he was different from ordinary soldiers, so he should have a certain degree of autonomy in your army."

"Second, if he wants to talk about anything strange that happens to him, you can listen, but if he doesn't want to talk about it, you can't ask."

Li Yunlong recalled the scene when Shen Yan saved him. White light flashed around him. Bandits fell down almost whenever he raised his hand. He also understood that Shen Yan was indeed different from himself and others.

"Yes, Director, I will complete the task."

Shen Yan rode a fast horse and finally arrived back to Chang'an City before nightfall. After entering the city, he stood in front of the gate of the Shen family compound and looked at the plaque with mixed feelings. He had not returned home since 918 and had been practicing in the mountains. But how many years would it take him to leave this time?

The doorman came out and looked at Shen Yan, then shouted, "Master, Master is back!"
