The flood began to fade slowly, and Yang Tianfeng had to deal with everything as soon as possible and take the troops to leave on a boat. It was hard for him to imagine how difficult it would be to trek through the mud after the flood completely went down.

Yang Tianfeng rode his horse on the street, his mind moving. The Japanese army marched south in a large scale, and the longest, largest and most famous battle in the War of Resistance Against Japan, the Battle of Wuhan, had begun.

During the Battle of Wuhan, Japan used the largest force that could be gathered at that time and gave full play to its absolute advantage in land, sea and air equipment. After four and a half months of hard work, not only did it not annihilate the main force of the Chinese army, but did not reduce the will and combat effectiveness of the Chinese army's army, but instead caused the Japanese army's vitality to fight against the war.

After the Battle of Wuhan, as the front line was extended, the Japanese army felt that their troops were becoming less and less powerful, and they were unable to organize large-scale strategic offensives such as the Battle of Songhu, Xuzhou and Wuhan, aiming to conquer cities and territories, and were forced to become strategically conservative.

This led to a change in Japan's policy of aggression against China: from military strikes as the main force, political inducement as the auxiliary force, to political inducement as the main force, and military strike as the auxiliary force; from fighting on the front battlefield with the main force, to transferring troops to "public security" battle on the battlefield behind enemy lines.

In other words, when the Wuhan Battle was in full swing, it was also the time when the Japanese were the weakest in the battlefield behind enemy lines. When the Wuhan Battle ended, the Japanese army mobilized a large number of troops to consolidate the rear, and the situation at that time was not optimistic.

Half of a month has passed, and Yang Tianfeng feels the urgency of time. How to use these few more than three months to lay a good foundation as much as possible, seize a treasure land that is suitable for both offense and defense, and pave the way for future development has always been something he has been thinking about.

The people who went down the Wo River to the junction of Henan and Anhui have not returned yet. The training of the recruits still takes some time and the preparations are not yet complete. Yang Tianfengguang is anxious and has no other way.

Just as Yang Tianfeng moved forward slowly and his thoughts turned around, with a sharp scream, someone suddenly jumped out of the alley next to him, shocking the horse he was riding. The horse screamed loudly, raised its front hooves and stood up high.

The matter was in a hurry, and Yang Tianfeng was just like riding and was unprepared, so he was thrown down. Fortunately, he barely made a self-rescue move in the air, and the rolling after landing slowed down some of the force. Even so, it hurts a lot. The horse raised his four hooves like crazy, rushed around the streets, and was about to hurt people when he saw it.

"Stop the horse, I, I'm fine." Yang Tianfeng reluctantly called Xiao Si and others to chase the Shocked Horse.

The horse turned its hooves and had already run out for dozens of meters, and the street was in chaos. At this time, a man suddenly stepped forward and caught the shocked horse from the side. He grabbed the bridle. The horse was angry and stood upright, trying to get rid of the man. The man was extremely flexible, and he took advantage of the momentum to jump up and pull down fiercely... After several battles, the horse could not resist and stood there helplessly, with a heavy breath whirling from his nose.

He was helped up by his subordinates in a dirt face. Yang Tianfeng took a deep breath in pain. He looked up and down at the man who was uniformed and shocked horse and led him over. He was of medium size, very thick, round and square face, big forehead, black eyebrows, and a little gloomy eyes. Well, this is what Yang Tianfeng felt.

"Sir, are you okay?" The man let go of the bridle and did not even look at the deep blood marks on his hands, but smiled at Yang Tianfeng.

"Thank you, you did a pretty job, you're not a local, right? What's your name?" Yang Tianfeng thought that if a commoner dressed in ordinary clothes could be so calm, then this person would not be simple.

"My name is Ma Yuming. My family is in Kaifeng, and I am a small businessman." The man laughed and said, "I was trapped in the city after selling the goods."

Oh, Yang Tianfeng smiled faintly, with a question in his heart, and was thinking about continuing to interrogate, when another person ran over from behind.

"Young Master, are you okay? Have you broken it?" Han Ping'er panted, her face flushed, her forehead was covered with sweat, and she even lost one of her shoes. She looked at Yang Tianfeng and asked anxiously.

Although his clothes and pants were broken a few times and his body was hurt, Yang Tianfeng still grinned and comforted: "It's okay, it's okay at all."

At this time, two guards carried the perpetrator over with him. Yang Tianfeng secretly called out that he was unlucky, what could a lunatic do to her?

Guiying struggled left and right, revealing her white teeth, and making low and strange sounds from her throat from time to time, as if she wanted to choose someone to eat. Coupled with her messy hair, dirty face, and torn clothes that smelled strange, it made people even more terrifying.

"Are you going to treat her again?" Yang Tianfeng frowned and asked Han Ping'er.

Han Ping'er lowered her head, like a child who did something wrong, murmured: "It's already much better, but I saw that it was very pitiful, so I felt a little relaxed, but I didn't expect her..."

"Didn't I send you two people to follow?" Yang Tianfeng asked in confusion: "Where are they? Can't even control a woman?"

"I came out myself and didn't let them follow me." Han Ping'er's voice looked like a mosquito.

Yang Tianfeng gently patted Han Ping'er on the shoulder and half-scolded, "Be careful in the future, fortunately, it just shocked my horse. What if you hurt you? Where are the shoes, your feet are not tied, right?"

"No, not tied." Han Ping'er rubbed her feet shyly and looked at Yang Tianfeng gratefully, "There is only one old mother and one little brother in her family. I can't stop her, so I had to chase her out, and there are several neighbors nearby."

Alas, Yang Tianfeng sighed, waved his hand, and ordered the guards to send Guiying home with a few neighbors chasing him, and looked back at Ma Yuming.

"Sir, if it's okay, I'll leave first." Ma Yu's famous general Ma's reins were handed over to Xiao Si and said respectfully: "I don't know if the boss has time tonight. I want to visit him and tell me something important."

Since you are coming, I will wait for you. Yang Tianfeng gave up the idea of ​​continuing to interrogate. Besides, the city is his own world, so there is no need to worry that he will run away. He nodded with a smile, said a few words and watched Ma Yuming leave.

"What are you doing?" Yang Tianfeng turned around and asked Han Ping'er strangely.

"I'll go find shoes." Han Ping'er looked down at her feet and replied embarrassedly.

"It's dark, where can I find it?" Yang Tianfeng said with some amusement, "Let's talk about it first, Xiao Si, ask someone to give up a horse for Miss Han to ride."

The horse was held in front of him, and Han Ping'er stood there. When she was a little helpless, Yang Tianfeng had reached out to hold her waist and lifted her up with force. Han Ping'er let out a gentle scream and sat sideways on the back of the horse.
