Gao Han did not pass and walked towards the prisoners of war.

The prisoners of war had all gotten out of the car and helped each other untie the ropes. They were all in ragged clothes, with sallow faces and thin muscles, but their expressions were extremely excited. The leader of the company, the Sichuan Army company commander, was about 30 years old, with a thick and burly build and thick cheeks.

He looked very mighty with a beard. He stepped forward and was about to give a military salute. Seeing Gao Han dressed in civilian attire, he cupped his fists and saluted and said: "This hero has a great name. Thank you for your life-saving grace."

Gao Han had clearly seen the identity mark on his chest. He was the captain company commander of the 104th Division of the Sichuan Army. His name was Guo Hengming. He said: "Captain Guo, please call me Gao Jiu. This is not the place to talk. The Japanese reinforcements will be here soon."

Come. Call your people to clean up the battlefield and evacuate this place quickly."

Then, he warned again: "The uniforms worn by the Japanese and puppet soldiers are all good, keep them for use."

Guo Hengming nodded and told his prisoners of war to get busy. While cleaning the battlefield, the prisoners of war saw that the Japanese and puppet soldiers were all killed with one shot in the head. They were all horrified and admired.

The sunset fills the sky, as gorgeous as fire.

The team, far away from the battlefield, stopped to rest by a creek.

The prisoners of war, who were already weak and hungry, relied on their enthusiasm for surviving the disaster and persisted for more than 20 miles. They all collapsed on the ground exhausted.

Gao Han saw the condition of the prisoners of war and said to Jia Liu: "Take out the dry food and bacon, and give them a little each."

The dry food Jia Liu brought out was oily scallion pancakes and fragrant bacon. This kind of treatment can only be obtained by those who go out to perform tasks. The dry food lasted three people for three days. They ate some this morning and noon, and left the rest.

Quite a lot. Jia Liu also planned to take it back and keep it to enjoy slowly.

He reluctantly said: "Master Jiu, what are you doing for them? It's good that we saved their lives, but we also need to give them food. It's too cheap for them."

Gao Han whispered: "Can the three of us carry so many things?"

Jia Liu said unconvinced: "Just pile the things here. I'll go back to the mountain to report the news and let our people come over."

Seeing that he couldn't explain it, Gao Han reached out and hit him on the head. He cursed: "You brat, don't be so petty. I'll reward you with two Japanese cans when I go back. Hurry up!"

"That's okay." Jia Liu said happily.

Jia Liu took out the dry food bag from his horse, hid the largest piece of bacon in his arms, and then handed the rest to Captain Guo.

Seeing that all the prisoners of war had eaten, Gao Han walked over.

There were a total of 22 rescued prisoners of war, some from the 104th Division of the 47th Army of the 22nd Group Army of the Sichuan Army, and some from the Direct Regiment of the 69th Army of the Shanxi-Sui Army. They were all captured in the Battle of Xinkou and have been doing hard labor for the Japanese.

Among these people, in addition to Guo Hengming, there was a platoon leader and a platoon deputy from the Sichuan Army, as well as a company deputy and a platoon leader from the Jinsui Army.

Seeing Gao Han coming, the officers knew that he had something to say, so they gathered around him.

Gao Han asked: "What are your plans next?"

On the way, Guo Hengming and others already knew the identities of Gao Han and others. They did not want to get involved with bandit-like armed forces like Taohuashan. The officers had just discussed it and made a decision.

He said: "We want to return to the original army."

Gao Han wanted to keep these people. These people had all participated in the battle against the Japanese army and were much better than the crooked melons and dates under his command. However, he knew that these people looked down on the bandits, so he forced them to stay and follow him.

Not being of the same mind is not a good thing.

A melon that is forced is not sweet, so Gao Han must try to make them stay voluntarily.

He said: "Okay, you can leave if you want. However, there are enemy-occupied areas for hundreds of miles around here, so be careful."

Since the officers were captured, they knew almost nothing about the situation outside. Guo Hengming asked: "Master, do you know where the 22nd Army went after the Battle of Xinkou?"

The officers of the Jinsui Army did not inquire. They could find a solution as long as they returned to Shanxi.

Gao Han said: "After the Battle of Xinkou, the Japanese army occupied most of Shanxi and most of Shandong. The areas east of Taiyuan and north of Xuzhou were basically Japanese-occupied areas. The 22nd Army has already moved to the Xuzhou area. Specifically,

I don’t know its location, but the 122nd Division of the 41st Army should be stationed in Teng County.”

After receiving the news from the old army, Guo Hengming and others were very happy. He said: "Master, thank you for your life-saving grace. We have nothing to offer now, and we can only repay this kindness in the future."

Gao Han nodded and said, "If you want to leave, it's best to change into civilian clothes." After that, he introduced the surrounding terrain to the officers.

The officers were very grateful when they saw Gao Han's enthusiasm. Guo Hengming said a little embarrassedly: "Master, we have nothing, can you lend us some money and weapons?"

Gao Han did not refuse, and promised to give them five pieces of ocean, as well as the two old sleeves with smoothed gun lines, and gave them all the remaining bullets. In addition, he also gave them two Japanese-style melon grenades. The officer

They were very happy and said that after finding the old army, they would definitely find opportunities to repay Gao Han in the future.

Night fell, and it was still a bit cold in the mountains. Zhang Quan and Jia Liu were warming themselves by the fire. When they saw Gao Han coming, they said dissatisfiedly: "Master Jiu, these people are white-eyed wolves. We saved their lives, but they are not willing to stay."

.Besides, we’re not rich either, so we can just let them leave, so why give them anything back?”

Gao Han smiled and said: "I ask you, if you let them stay, would you be willing?"

Zhang Quan said: "If they are willing to stay, of course that's fine. These people are soldiers after all, and they can definitely fight better than those in our village."

Gao Han whispered: "Don't worry, these people can't leave. People and things are all ours."

Zhang Quan asked with some confusion: "Why? Aren't they leaving already?"

Gao Han smiled and said: "Don't worry, just wait and see."

Zhang Quan didn't believe it and turned to look at the prisoners of war gathered around the fire. They were discussing something. He turned back without saying anything and used the wooden stick in his hand to stir the fire.

About half an hour later, Guo Hengming and others walked towards here.

Gao Han smiled and said: "Zhang Quan, do you dare to bet me? They will definitely come and ask us to take them in."

Zhang Quan couldn't believe it and said, "Isn't it possible?"

Guo Hengming and others came over and said, "The boss, we have discussed it and decided to stay in Taohua Mountain, and we asked the boss to take him in."

Gao Han smiled and said: "Welcome everyone, you are all heroes who fight against the Japanese. With your joining, we can fight against the Japanese happily together."
