Holding the original shares, they fought all the way to the Korean War!

Zhou Tianyang glanced at his new points balance: over 275,000 points.

He spent 11,000 points, but it didn't really bother him now.

If this had happened two months ago, spending over 10,000 points to buy equipment for Li Yunlong would have made him feel bad for days.

But now, he spends the money without even batting an eye.

He glanced at the wooden crates in the system space again, then stood up.

Instead of taking the main road at the village entrance, he left the village via a small path behind the regimental headquarters and walked north along the foot of the mountain.

That road is rarely used during the day, and it's even more deserted at night.

He walked through a thicket of bushes, climbed over a low ridge, and finally stopped in a shady ravine.

There is a naturally formed cave there, its entrance hidden by dense thorns and vines.

He used this cave when he prepared the first batch of equipment for Li Yunlong.

Now, more than a month has passed.

He stood here again.

Zhou Tianyang pushed aside the vines and squeezed inside.

The cave was dry and quiet, just like when he last left.

"System, extract all items to the current cave."

The moment the words left his mouth, a pile of wooden crates appeared out of thin air in the cave.

Four hundred rifles and three hundred boxes of ammunition occupied almost half of the cave.

Zhou Tianyang stood in front of the wooden crates, his gaze sweeping over them.

After confirming the quantity was correct, he turned around, pushed aside the vines, and crawled out.

He stood at the cave entrance, glanced back at the pile of supplies, and then covered the vines again.

Tomorrow we'll send someone to transport the supplies back to the regimental headquarters, and then arrange for a few soldiers to escort them to Shinian Village.

Li Yunlong has been waiting for this batch of equipment for more than half a month, so it's time for him to feel at ease.

Zhou Tianyang walked back along the way he came, through the thicket, over the low ridge, and along the path at the foot of the mountain back to the back of Lijia Yu.

The village remained silent as he quietly returned to the regimental headquarters.

Push the door open and enter the room, then gently close it.

Zhou Tianyang lay on the bed, closed his eyes, and his mind was filled with images from the past two days.

Deng Chen and his more than 300 veterans finally settled down, and the total strength of the new Second Regiment has exceeded 2,500.

With nearly 300,000 points stored in the system, there's no need to worry about resources for the foreseeable future.

The equipment for Li Yunlong's side can be delivered tomorrow.

Everything went more smoothly than he had expected.

Soon after, Zhou Tianyang fell asleep.

He slept soundly that night.

……

The next morning.

Zhou Tianyang woke up as soon as it was light.

A deep night's sleep made him feel like every cell in his body was full of energy.

He sat up, quickly washed up, put on his military uniform, and went out.

In the courtyard, Ma Yong had already led the guards in lining up on the threshing floor.

Thirty men stood in neat rows, carrying guns, full of spirit.

Seeing Zhou Tianyang come out, Ma Yong quickly went to greet him.

"Commander, everyone's here."

Zhou Tianyang nodded, his gaze sweeping over the thirty soldiers.

"Come with me to somewhere, we need to move some things."

There were no unnecessary questions or discussions.

Thirty people responded immediately and followed Zhou Tianyang out of the village along the dirt road at the village entrance.

It took about ten minutes to walk.

The group crossed the low ridge, passed through the thicket, and arrived at the cave hidden by thorns.

Zhou Tianyang pushed aside the vines and squeezed inside, with Ma Yong following behind him.

When Ma Yong saw the neatly arranged wooden crates in the cave, his eyes lit up immediately.

He walked quickly to the nearest wooden crate and then turned to look at Zhou Tianyang.

"Commander, is this the equipment prepared for Commander Li?"

"Yes, four hundred M1 Garand rifles and thirty thousand rounds of ammunition."

Zhou Tianyang spoke in a calm tone, as if he were talking about something completely ordinary.

Ma Yong didn't ask any more questions. He stood up, turned around, and shouted towards the outside of the cave.

"Come in and move your things!"

The guards responded and crawled into the cave, working in pairs to carry the wooden crates out one by one.

Zhou Tianyang stood at the entrance of the cave, watching as the wooden crates were carefully carried out and placed on the open ground outside.

His gaze swept over the boxes, and after confirming that the number was correct, he turned around and called everyone to walk back.

When we returned to Lijia Yu.

On the threshing ground, the soldiers of the New Second Regiment were training.

Zhao Wenlong led the First Battalion in a run, Tian Chengjun corrected the new recruits' shooting postures on the Second Battalion's side, and Sun Shengli's loud voice came from the direction of the Third Battalion.

It could be heard clearly even from halfway across the village.

Zhou Tianyang directed the guards to move the equipment into the warehouse next to the regimental headquarters.

Then someone went and called Zhao Wenlong over.

A moment later.

Zhao Wenlong ran over from the threshing ground, his forehead still covered in sweat.

"Commander, you wanted to see me?"

"Um."

Zhou Tianyang pointed to the pile of wooden crates in the warehouse.

"Take a count: four hundred M1 Garand rifles and thirty thousand rounds of ammunition."

"Arrange a few mule carts later to deliver this batch of equipment to Regiment Commander Li."

Zhao Wenlong walked into the warehouse, squatted down next to the wooden crates, reached out and opened one of the crates to take a look, then closed it again.

Then he stood up, his tone tinged with emotion.

"Commander, Commander Li has been waiting for this batch of equipment for more than half a month. He must be getting impatient."

Zhou Tianyang smiled.

"Then you'd better hurry up."

Zhao Wenlong responded and ran out to arrange the mule cart.

About an hour later.

Three mule carts were parked at the warehouse entrance.

Ma Yong, along with a dozen soldiers, carried the wooden crates onto the mule cart one by one.

"Commander, it's all set up."

Zhou Tianyang looked at Ma Yong and said.

"You'll lead the team yourself this time, so be careful on the road."

Ma Yong stood at attention and saluted.

"Don't worry, Commander, we guarantee safe delivery!"

Ma Yong responded, turned around and walked to the front of the line, waving his hand.

"Set off!"

Three mule carts slowly drove out of Lijia Yu and headed towards Shinian Village along the mountain road.

Ma Yong walked at the front, followed by a dozen armed soldiers, their steps light yet alert.

Zhou Tianyang stood at the village entrance, watching the group of people gradually disappear into the distance.

They didn't turn around until their figures completely disappeared around the bend in the mountain road, and then they walked back to the regimental headquarters.

In the courtyard, Brigade Commander Chen was squatting next to a stone table, holding a teacup in his hand, slowly drinking water.

Seeing Zhou Tianyang walk in, he put down his teacup and looked up at him.

"The equipment has been sent away?"

"Um."

Brigade Commander Chen nodded and did not pursue the matter further.

He paused for a moment, then changed the subject.

"Tianyang, when do you plan to reorganize Deng Chen's people?"

"Let them adjust in two or three days before we talk about it."

Zhou Tianyang sat down on the stone bench, his tone calm.

"Let them familiarize themselves with our environment and rules over the next few days, and then I'll discuss the reorganization with Battalion Commander Deng."

After listening, Brigade Commander Chen did not say anything more.

He simply picked up the teacup and took another sip of water.

Then I leaned back in my chair and looked out at the distant, rolling Taihang Mountains.

Zhou Tianyang's gaze fell on Brigade Commander Chen's face.

He paused for a moment, then slowly began to speak.

"Commander, there are some things I'd like to discuss with you in detail about this trip to Shanghai."

Commander Chen leaned back in his chair, his hands clasped on the table, looking at him calmly.

"Okay, go ahead and say it."

"I don't have anything urgent to do today, so please take your time."
