"Tang Li, what are you thinking about?" Xiuqin's voice came from the side, bringing him back to reality.

"Nothing, just recalling the battles of the past few days." Tang Li smiled slightly, raised his glass and clinked it with Xiuqin's, "Come on, Sister Xiuqin, cheers."

"Cheers!" Xiuqin smiled back and took a sip of wine with him.

Zhang Xiaohu was chewing pork and said with a smile, "Tang Li, you are our hero this time! The artillery shells you fired were simply amazing!"

"Yes, such accurate shells caused great losses to the Japanese." Monk Wei also praised loudly, "Tang Li, this time it is really thanks to you."

"Don't say that. This is everyone's credit. I just did what I should do." Tang Li said modestly, but he could not hide the pride on his face.

Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang came over, each holding a glass of wine. Li Yunlong said loudly: "Everyone, be quiet. I have something to say."

The soldiers immediately quieted down, all eyes focused on Li Yunlong.

"We have achieved a great victory in this battle, successfully repelling the enemy's attack and protecting the safety of the base. This is inseparable from the efforts and sacrifices of everyone." Li Yunlong looked around and continued, "Especially Tang Li and his artillery team. Their outstanding performance won us precious time and opportunities. Tang Li, come here!"

Tang Li stood up, walked to Li Yunlong and saluted.

"Tang Li, you have made a great contribution this time." Li Yunlong said with a smile, "Not only here, but the whole army is learning from your deeds. The superiors have specially sent a commendation order, praising you for being a smart sergeant."

As he spoke, Li Yunlong took out a commendation from his pocket and handed it to Tang Li. Tang Li took it and was very excited when he saw the words on it.

"Thank you, Captain Li, and thank you everyone!" Tang Li said loudly, his voice trembling a little, "This is the honor of all our soldiers."

Zhao Gang also stepped forward and patted Tang Li on the shoulder. "Tang Li, we are extremely proud of your performance. You are not only courageous, but also wise. This is what a true warrior is."

The soldiers burst into warm applause and congratulated Tang Li. Tang Li looked at all this and felt a strong sense of mission. He knew that this honor belonged not only to him but also to the entire team.

After the celebration banquet, everyone gradually dispersed and returned to their respective posts. Xiuqin was busy in the temporary medical clinic, treating the soldiers' wounds. Tang Li walked in and saw Xiuqin's tired face, and felt distressed.

"Sister Xiuqin, you should take a rest too." Tang Li walked over and said softly.

"It's okay. The soldiers' wounds are more important." Xiuqin forced a smile. "Why don't you go and rest?"

"I'm not tired, I just wanted to see you." Tang Li said, his eyes full of concern.

Xiuqin felt a little warm in her heart, and whispered, "Thank you, Tang Li. With you fighting in the front, I can serve you here with peace of mind."

"This is what we should do." Tang Li said seriously, "You are also a part of our team. Without you, we would not be able to hold on until now."

Xiuqin looked at Tang Li, a touch of emotion flashed in her eyes, "Tang Li, you have really grown up."

Tang Li scratched his head embarrassedly, "Sister Xiuqin, please don't say that. I still need to learn from everyone."

At this time, Monk Wei walked in and said loudly: "Tang Li, Xiuqin, Captain Li is looking for you. There is an urgent task."

The two looked at each other and immediately followed Monk Wei to the command center. Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang were standing in front of the table with serious expressions.

"Are you here?" Li Yunlong raised his head and looked at them. "There is an urgent task for you to carry out."

"What mission?" Tang Li asked, already prepared in his heart.

"We received intelligence that the Japanese are preparing to launch a surprise attack on us, targeting our ammunition depot. If the ammunition depot is destroyed, our combat effectiveness will be seriously affected," said Li Yunlong, with a hint of urgency in his tone.

Zhao Gang continued, "We need a small team to quickly go to the ammunition depot and ensure its safety."

"I'm willing to go." Tang Li said without hesitation.

"I'll go too." Xiuqin followed.

Li Yunlong nodded. "Okay, then you will form this small team and set off immediately. Remember, the safety of the ammunition depot is related to our survival, and there must be no mistakes."

"Understood!" Tang Li and Xiuqin answered in unison.

They quickly gathered several capable warriors, took the necessary equipment, and prepared to set off. Monk Wei looked at them and said in a deep voice: "You must be careful and take care!"

"Don't worry, monk, we will come back safely." Tang Li said with a smile, and then led the team away.

As darkness fell over the land, Tang Li and his team quietly advanced, avoiding enemy patrols. They remained alert along the way, making no noise and trying to avoid conflict with the enemy.

"The ammunition depot is ahead." Xiuqin said in a low voice, pointing to a forest ahead.

"Everyone be careful and stay hidden." Tang Li ordered, then led the team slowly approaching the ammunition depot.

The area around the ammunition depot seemed unusually quiet, and there seemed to be nothing unusual. But Tang Li knew that he should not be careless at such times. He signaled the team members to disperse and carefully search the surroundings.

"No enemy was found." Zhang Xiaohu reported in a low voice.

"Stay alert and don't be careless." Tang Li replied.

They entered the ammunition depot and found that the ammunition was neatly stacked and showed no signs of damage. Xiuqin checked and confirmed that everything was normal.

"It seems that the enemy hasn't found this place yet." Xiuqin said, breathing a sigh of relief.

"We have to hold on here until the main force arrives." Tang Li said, "Everyone take turns to rest and maintain your strength."

In the dead of night, Tang Li and his team set up a defense line around the ammunition depot, ready to respond to possible attacks at any time. Time passed by, and there was still no movement around.

Suddenly, there was a slight sound of footsteps in the distance. Tang Li immediately raised his alert and signaled the team members to prepare for battle.

"Here they come!" Zhang Xiaohu whispered, the gun in his hand already aimed at the darkness ahead.

Several Japanese soldiers approached quietly. They were obviously reconnaissance troops trying to find the location of the ammunition depot. At Tang Li's command, the soldiers opened fire at the same time and accurately killed the enemy.

"The enemy has discovered us." Tang Li said, his heart sinking, "Everyone prepare for battle."

Soon after, a large number of Japanese soldiers began to approach the ammunition depot. Tang Li and his team members resisted tenaciously on the position and blocked the enemy's attack with fierce firepower.

"We can't let them get close to the ammunition depot!" Tang Li ordered loudly, his eyes full of determination.

Xiuqin bandaged the wounded. Although she was not a combatant, her presence made the soldiers feel at ease. While treating the wounds, she encouraged everyone: "Hold on, victory is just around the corner!"

The battle was extremely fierce, the enemy's artillery fire continued to attack, and the defense line of the ammunition depot was in danger. At this time, the main force finally arrived, and Li Yunlong personally led the team to reinforce.

"Tang Li, we are here!" Li Yunlong shouted loudly and led the team into the battlefield.

With the addition of reinforcements, the situation improved rapidly. The attack of the Japanese was completely repelled, the ammunition depot was saved, and the soldiers cheered.

"Tang Li, well done!" Li Yunlong walked over, patted Tang Li on the shoulder, his eyes full of praise.

"This is the result of everyone's joint efforts." Tang Li replied with a smile, his heart filled with a sense of accomplishment.

After the battle, Zhao Gang summarized the situation: "In this mission, we once again demonstrated our

Tang Li distributed Daqianmen cigarettes and some Fenjiu to the entire team, allowing everyone to relax, play cards and have fun, but they must not let their guard down.

After the victory in the battle of the ammunition depot, Li Yunlong convened the whole team for a brief commendation meeting. Under the starry sky at night, the fire flickered, and the soldiers sat together tired but excited. Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang stood in the middle with proud smiles on their faces.

"Brothers, you all have worked hard." Li Yunlong said, his voice full of praise and concern, "We fought beautifully this time, and everyone has made contributions. Especially Tang Li, the team he led defended the ammunition depot at the critical moment and made a great contribution!"

The soldiers applauded, their eyes full of respect and gratitude. Tang Li stood aside, with a modest smile on his face, but his heart was full of pride and satisfaction.

"Thank you all for your support and hard work." Tang Li said, "The victory of this battle is the result of everyone's joint efforts. I just did my part."

Zhao Gang nodded and took over the topic, "Tang Li has prepared something special for everyone tonight. Everyone, relax, but remember, don't let your guard down."

After that, Zhao Gang signaled his soldiers to bring a box of Daqianmen cigarettes and a few bottles of Fenjiu. When the soldiers saw these things, they cheered and expressed their gratitude.

"Come on, everyone, have a pack of cigarettes and relax." Tang Li said with a smile, distributing cigarettes to everyone personally, "And Fenjiu, have a drink to warm your body."

Zhang Xiaohu took the cigarette, his eyes flashing with excitement, "Thank you, Tang Li! You are so considerate!"

Monk Wei picked up a bottle of Fenjiu and said with a smile: "Today is a really good day, let's celebrate together!"

Xiuqin also sat by the campfire, watching everyone with a smile. She knew how precious such a moment of relaxation was to the soldiers, allowing them to have a moment of peace between intense battles.

"Sister Xiuqin, have a drink too." Zhang Dabiao handed over a glass of wine with a smile, "Let's all relax today."

Xiuqin took the wine glass and said with a smile: "Okay, then I'll have a drink with everyone."
