The Cycle of Reincarnation in the Four-Courtyard House: A Journey Through the Heavens

Jiang Hui said that Li Xiao would send them supplies, but Li Yunlong never expected that there would be so many supplies!

This is simply beyond their imagination!

Li Yunlong, who was usually carefree and easygoing, was now unable to speak properly, and his large hands, which were holding the list of supplies, were trembling uncontrollably.

Seeing this, Political Commissar Zhao Gang, who was standing nearby, quickly took the list from him.

When Zhao Gang saw the list of supplies, he couldn't help but gasp.

Li Yunlong stared wide-eyed at Li Xiao, asking slowly and deliberately, "Li Xiao...is this...all true...?"

Li Xiao smiled frankly and said, "Of course it's true!"

"Commander Li, Political Commissar Zhao, the supplies are in a cave two kilometers away from here."

Li Yunlong immediately grabbed Li Xiao's hand tightly and shook it repeatedly.

"Mr. Li, on behalf of all 4112 soldiers of the New First Regiment, Lao Zhao and I would like to express our heartfelt gratitude for your assistance!"

"You've really helped us a lot this time!!!"

Li Yunlong immediately ordered a burly man behind him, "Zhang Dabiao, quickly bring me my sweet potato liquor. I want to have a good drink with Brother Li today!"

"Alright, Commander!"

Zhang Dabiao agreed and immediately turned to leave.

"Wait a minute!"

Li Xiao stopped Zhang Dabiao, then said to Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang, "Commander Li, Political Commissar Zhao, we'll have plenty of time to drink later, but time is of the essence right now. I suggest we immediately send out our soldiers to bring the supplies back!"

In fact, Li Yunlong also wanted to bring the supplies back immediately, but since they had come all the way from Beijing to deliver supplies to him, and he hadn't even offered them a proper welcome, wouldn't that make him, Old Li, seem ill-mannered?

Now that Li Xiao has brought this up, he naturally won't refuse.

Zhao Gang quickly replied, "Leave this to me!"

He turned and left immediately after he finished speaking.

After everything was prepared, Zhao Gang led a battalion of soldiers to guard the base, while Li Yunlong followed Li Xiao directly to the cave where supplies were hidden.

When the battalion and company commanders of the new regiment saw boxes and boxes of weapons and ammunition, they couldn't help but cheer.

Li Xiao said to Li Yunlong, "Commander Li, I have hidden 97 Japanese trucks in a nearby canyon. You should immediately select 100 clever soldiers. Jiang Hui and I will teach these soldiers how to drive, and then we can use the trucks to haul these supplies back."

Li Yunlong was overjoyed upon hearing this and immediately instructed his battalion and company commanders to select suitable soldiers.

Li Xiao and Jiang Hui led the selected soldiers to the nearby canyon and began the training.

Cars of that era had simple mechanical structures and very few electronic components, making them easy to drive; all you needed was some strength.

The main reason is that the steering wheel has no power steering mechanism, so it is very difficult to turn.

It took the two of them more than two hours to finally teach all the soldiers, and then the entire regiment began to move the equipment.

With the concerted efforts of thousands of people, all the supplies were transported back to the New First Regiment's base in just half a day. Li Yunlong looked at the cannon barrels gleaming in the warehouse and grinned from ear to ear.

Just as dinner was being prepared, Li Xiao led a woman wearing a floral cotton-padded jacket and a floral headscarf into Li Yunlong's operations command room.

"Old Li!"

Li Yunlong, who was looking at the map of Ping'an County on the wall, froze when he heard the shout.

He slowly turned his head, looking at the familiar woman in front of him, his eyes already red.

"Xiuqin!"

"Old Li!"

Yang Xiuqin threw herself into Li Yunlong's arms and began to sob.

"I thought I'd never see you again, sob sob..."

After a while, the two separated. Li Yunlong looked at Li Xiao, who was standing at the door smiling at them, and immediately felt his face turn red!

"Brother Li, hehehe..."

Li Yunlong, who was usually carefree, felt a little embarrassed at this moment and couldn't help but scratch his head.

Yang Xiuqin, who was standing nearby, quickly said, "Old Li, it was this young man who rescued me from the Japanese today!"

Upon hearing this, Li Yunlong quickly stepped forward, grabbed Li Xiao's hand, and shook it vigorously.

"Brother, I really don't know how to thank you enough!"

At this moment, Li Yunlong's heart was filled with gratitude towards Li Xiao.

After his regiment's base was attacked by Yamamoto's special forces that day, many of his brothers were killed or wounded, and even his newlywed wife was kidnapped by the Japanese. These past few days, Li Yunlong has been filled with self-blame and pain.

But he was still the commander of the new regiment, and he couldn't pass on his negative emotions to the soldiers below him. So these past few days, Old Li had been planning how to wipe out all these Japanese devils whose hands were stained with the blood of his comrades and rescue his wife.

Li Yunlong had already made his plans. Now that he had the advanced weapons that Li Xiao had provided him, he was fully capable of launching an attack on Ping'an County and annihilating the Japanese special forces.

Li Yunlong asked with some curiosity, "Brother, how did you manage to rescue Xiuqin?"

Li Xiao smiled and said four words: "Special Operations!"

"Special operations?"

Li Yunlong truly lived up to his reputation as a military genius. As soon as he heard those four words, he seemed to have some vague ideas in his mind.

In fact, rescuing Yang Xiuqin was an incredibly easy task for Li Xiao, who was practically a cheat code.

He went to Ping'an County alone and found the place where Yang Xiuqin was being held.

Li Xiao used the supermarket space to walk through the void, knocked Xiuqin unconscious, and brought her into the space.

After Yang Xiuqin regained consciousness, Li Xiao had already taken her to a small mountain valley more than ten kilometers away from Ping'an County.

In his previous life, Li Xiao had naturally watched the national hit TV series "Bright Sword," and he was still very upset about Xiuqin's death.

In his past life, Li Xiao once saw this question online: "If Xiuqin hadn't sacrificed herself, what would her status have been after liberation?"

Li Xiao, as an insider, also answered this question.

Yang Xiuqin's revolutionary experience was actually more extensive than that of many others.

She became the president of the Women's Salvation Association at the age of eighteen. At that time, she also served as a courier for the local underground transportation station, and successfully delivered intelligence on many occasions.

In "Bright Sword", Xiuqin also told Zhao Gang that she had an older brother who was a battalion commander in the 120th Division and taught Xiuqin how to use a gun.

Xiuqin once used the pistol that Li Yunlong gave her to kill a Japanese lieutenant and a puppet soldier.

Yang Xiuqin was straightforward, resilient, warm-hearted, and kind. She was well-liked by both the soldiers of the New First Regiment and the local people of Zhaojiayu.

As Li Yunlong's first wife, she shared a high degree of spiritual affinity with him. The two were not only life partners but also comrades-in-arms in the revolutionary cause.

If Xiuqin had lived to see the founding of the People's Republic of China, her status would definitely not have been lower than that of Zhao Mengsheng's mother in "Garland Under the Mountain"—that much is certain!
