On July 7, Li Ergou, the battalion commander of the 18rd Battalion of the st Regiment, and Ding San, the battalion commander of the st Battalion of the nd Regiment, were recalled to Mengshan overnight by Chen Feng. At the same time, Zhang Liang of the Tiger Regiment returned to Mengshan with a platoon of members.

The largest conference room cave was on alert again, and this time the cordon was stretched to 200 meters away. Zhang Liang and Lu Feihu sat on a big rock 200 meters away smoking, knowing that the captain had a big plan, but no one asked who was responsible.

Inside the cave, Chen Feng looked at the thirty-two people, his heart filled with guilt. They had left their hometown, and although everyone did it voluntarily, perhaps not everyone could really give up their hometown.

"Brothers, although the arrow has been drawn on the string, I still want to say a few more words. Once you leave, you may never have the chance to come back in your lifetime. Have you really thought it through? What I said is a bit hindsight. If you are still reluctant to leave, you can wait until the situation is right before going."

"Captain, we have to go sooner or later anyway, we are just going there in advance to prepare the way. Since you said it is the only way to fight against the Japanese, and also for the brothers to have a home in the future, who else can you hand over such an important matter to if not us?"

"Ergou, do you still want to go back to Qingdao? There's still time."

"Captain, I'm not going back. I have no concerns there anymore. Captain, you don't have to feel sad. Without you, I might have died in the sewers in Qingdao. My parents' revenge has been taken, but the Japanese devils haven't been killed yet. As long as I can kill the devils, I will listen to you, captain, no matter where I go or what I do."

"Ding San, what about you? Are you going back to Beizhuang to visit?"

"Captain, I'm not going back either. You know I'm an orphan. The Zhang family took me in, and finally I followed you to have my current development. Like Ergou, I only listen to the captain and will obey all arrangements, even if it costs my life."

Chen Feng looked at the Tiger Team members lined up in three rows. He didn't even know their names yet, but Zhang Liang had sent them here personally and had informed them of the situation. The fact that they had come this far meant that they had already accepted this one-way journey.

"Brothers, this may be the first time we meet. No matter what Captain Zhang said to you before, I will ask you one last time: do you regret anything? If you do regret anything, you can tell me. I promise you that nothing will happen. If you are worried, you can even stay in Mengshan and serve as my guard."

The group of people were excited. It was their first time meeting the captain, and perhaps the last time in the next two years. However, everyone was excited to have the captain personally arrange the mission. Isn't it just going to Southeast Asia? There was really no need to hesitate.

"Report to the captain, no regrets"!

"Report to the captain, follow your orders."

"Okay, brothers, listen up!"

"From today on, you will leave the previous battle sequence and form the Nanyang Detachment of the Yimeng Guerrillas. The detachment will be organized into a regiment, with Li Ergou as the regiment commander and Ding San as the deputy regiment commander. When you arrive in Singapore, you will first adapt to the tropical environment for two months. Then the Chen family will send you to a place where you will develop independently. There will be no rules or tasks. Everything will be focused on seizing territory and developing the army."

"Yes"!

"Brothers, remember one thing. Don't just wait to fight the Japanese. The place where you develop is also the retreat for all of us. Don't be merciful when doing things. I won't offend others unless they offend me. But if someone offends me, you can kill them! Do you understand?"

"understand".

"Ergou, Dingsan, take a box of penicillin and a box of gold bars with you when you leave. Although the Chen family will help us, I still hope that you can be self-reliant when you arrive at the designated location in two months."

"Don't worry, Captain!"

Chen Feng was not good at being sentimental, and he felt that there was no need to be sentimental here. He patted the shoulders of the thirty team members one by one, and each of them said something:

"Stay alive and wait for me to celebrate."

......

In this era, being away from homeland is a very cruel thing. For ordinary people, the cruelty may be no less than death. Although these people are carefully selected, Chen Feng still feels very reluctant.

"Let's go down the mountain! Rest for a few days first, and then board the merchant ship when it arrives."

Thirty people turned around and left, feeling a little reluctant and nostalgic.

"Ergou, Dingsan, time is urgent. The Japanese army may attack us next year or the year after. After you adapt to the life there, we will start selecting and training the team immediately. Every person we recruit must guarantee absolute loyalty and be steady and cautious. No matter where you go, we will never allow any armed forces that can threaten your safety. You have no friends, and you don't need any friends. You can't trust anyone except me. You only trust the gun in your own hand. Do you understand?"

"clear"!

Chen Feng took out a notebook from his pocket.

"Remember these are all life skills and precautions in the tropical rainforest. You must study them carefully. The enemy may not threaten your safety, but if you enter the rainforest, it is easy to be wiped out. Ding San, after you arrive, Mr. Chen will arrange for you to study in the hospital. You don't have to take care of the team for two months. You must learn medical knowledge well. Whether the team can make a name for itself may depend on whether you can protect the team. Don't slack off."

"Don't worry, Captain! I know the seriousness of the matter."

"Remember, use a brand new secret code book to communicate. Once you have gained a firm foothold, I will send people over there."

For more than two days, apart from accompanying Tan Kah Kee and the other three to discuss the layout of Southeast Asia, Chen Feng spent the rest of the time giving instructions to the Nanyang Detachment. They were to remain anonymous and not use a banner, but to develop under the name of a mysterious armed force. The source of soldiers would still be mainly Chinese and overseas Chinese. Locals could be used, but they had to be completely brainwashed. The colonists might have their eyes on them, so when they met them, they did not need to hold back and had to do everything cleanly and neatly to scare away all unfriendly people.

On the night of July 1940, 7, an American merchant ship made a temporary stop off the coast of Shijiu. Tan Kah Kee and four of his companions boarded the ship with some local specialties, accompanied by a fully armed special operations platoon responsible for escorting them. They would follow the merchant ship directly to the Strait of Malacca and return to Singapore after unloading the cargo.

There were very few people seeing him off. Chen Feng had greeted them beforehand, and there was no one to greet or see him off along the way. When they arrived at the beach, only Chen Feng and Zhang Liang were left.

After seeing off Chen Jiageng and his party, he finally had time to get drunk with Liu Lihui. With an idle person like Shen Honglie accompanying him, Liu Lihui simply couldn't stand it and asked to resign after just two days. Chen Feng sent 20,000 vials of penicillin, and it would be inappropriate for two members of the special operations platoon to go back empty-handed.

The whole Mengshan Mountain finally quieted down and everything returned to peace. The current situation was that as long as the Yimeng guerrillas did not cause trouble, no one dared to move. The Japanese army had completely abandoned the area east of the Jinpu Line and north of the Longhai East Line.
