When the cabin came into view, Wei Aiguo became extremely cautious. He loaded his gun, ready to fire at any moment. But to his surprise, no one was inside.

The cabin was clearly inhabited, with all the necessary household items. However, the water in the bowl had frozen, indicating that no one would be there for a day or two.

Unexpectedly, they found guns and bullets under the bed, as well as a black box containing a radio.

"These guns include both domestically produced and imported ones."

This type of rifle was probably imported from abroad sometime in the 1940s.

This rifle was manufactured in an arms factory.

They searched behind the house, and what they saw was both expected and terrifying.

More than twenty wolves, including cubs and half-grown ones, were chained together.

"Woof woof woof!" White Frost barked from the west.

When Song Yan went over to take a look, he saw it was the entrance to a cellar. He went down to check and found that it contained grain.

I wonder what the people in the cabin have gone to do. He probably doesn't know that his wolf pack has been wiped out and that there are still wolves to feed. He should come back.

Wei Aiguo and Song Yan surveyed the surrounding area thoroughly and prepared to stand guard beside the wooden house.

Wei Aiguo kept an eye on the outside world, while also pondering how the grain had been gotten up the mountain…

Wei Aiguo did not wait for the owner of the wooden house, but instead met Lu Xingtian and Li Jianping.

With so many people entering the mountains and footprints everywhere, the enemy spies must already know, so there's not much point in guarding this place anymore.

This is now in Lu Xingtian's hands, since Wei Aiguo is injured.

Cheng Yousuo was filled with emotion, thinking that even if it were Wei Aiguo, no one else could have survived.

Wei Aiguo didn't say anything, he just looked at his wife. He couldn't live without her.

Cheng Yousuo, who was about to go down the mountain together, looked at the two darts stuck in the wooden house pillar and said, "You're too young to have heard of this. There used to be two brothers around here who were bandits, called the Mao Family Double Darts. They said their darts were always accurate."

Later, they all died in the bandit suppression campaign. "During those years of bandit suppression, Cheng Yousuo was about ten years old and still remembers some things. The others were either not locals or hadn't been born yet, so they had no idea."

Wei Aiguo and Lu Xingtian exchanged a glance. Lu Xingtian pulled the dart off, and there really was a Chinese character "Mao" on it.

There's been a new discovery in this matter!

Wei Aiguo's mission was at the arsenal, and he was now leading most of his men down the mountain. The Qingshan brigade, however, didn't stand on ceremony and carried the wolf carcasses down the mountain.

Wei Aiguo suddenly called out to a few people and asked them to leave two wolves for the arsenal. No one thought much of it; after all, they had come along for a trip, so it wasn't unreasonable for them to share the spoils.

Song Yan didn't get that meaning from Wei Aiguo's gaze. He felt his wife's suspicious look and nodded.

The spies at the arsenal had close ties with the wolf breeder, and Wei Aiguo wanted to show him his wolves.

Li Jianping was very happy. It wasn't that he wanted to eat wolf meat, but rather that his visit showed that Wei Aiguo appreciated his kindness.

After all, Du Zhishan initially handled things very poorly.

Four people from the arsenal went down to report that weapons they were producing had been discovered there. This was no small matter.

…

Wei Aiguo was overjoyed; a significant discovery had been made.

Moreover, these people from the entire group were all around his age, and they had all grown up together. They had all come into the mountains for him. How could he not be moved?

He and Song Yan had the same idea: to hunt and take some game home for the New Year. The problem was they weren't finding any prey; they still had two wild boars in their spatial storage.

So many people with prey were alerted. Therefore, Wei Aiguo and Song Yan went first, while the others stayed behind.

Putting aside Wei Aiguo's hunting skills in the past, now that he and his wife have wiped out the wolf pack, why wouldn't everyone listen to him?

Wei Aiguo marked the path as he walked, so that the people behind him wouldn't lose track of him. It also made it easier for Lu Xingtian and the others to descend the mountain.

Leaving the crowd, Song Yan went into the space to change Wei Aiguo's dressing.

Wei Aiguo felt sorry for his wife; she would suffer if she couldn't access the space for the time being.

When Song Yan and Wei Aiguo saw the wound, their eyes widened in shock. Although it hadn't broken any bones, it had still caused some cuts and lacerations. But now it was about 70% healed.

Song Yan: "It must be the effect of the spring water." Song Yan looked at the second spring water. After they wiped out the wolf pack, the spring water was darker in color, so the effect should be even better.

Wei Aiguo: "Xiaoyan, you can't let others use this spring water easily, do you understand?"

"This is for both internal and external use; I've never used it on anyone else before!"

Wei Aiguo was secretly pleased. However, he was still worried. Song Yan was a compassionate doctor; perhaps she wouldn't be able to resist her pity and would use it. That's why he repeatedly gave her instructions…

They actually encountered wild rabbits and shot four of them. They only managed to shoot one pheasant because it was too skinny.

Song Yan released more than ten of her pheasants, and Wei Aiguo didn't spare a single one, along with a roe deer. Two wild boars were also thrown out!

Wei Aiguo is a really good shot. Now that his left hand can help, his firing rate is even faster.

That's quite a lot of stuff!

The two of them, along with Bai Shuang, enjoyed a delicious meal before waiting for the others to arrive.

The others caught up and were overjoyed to see so much prey. They quickly stopped to rest, started a fire, warmed the dry rations in their arms, ate something, and then continued on their way.

Normally, people don't go out at night, for fear of getting lost. But with Wei Aiguo around, everyone wasn't worried.

Wei Aiguo didn't want his wife to suffer, so he rushed back that very night, just to fulfill his wish...

So many people from the brigade went out to find Wei Aiguo. Captain Wu originally planned to give him some subsidies, not much money, but that was the point.

To avoid causing any objections from some people.

But with so many wolves, everyone got their share of the wolf meat, and the wolf pelts still fetched a large sum of money.

Captain Wu has gained both face and benefits this time.

Most of the people in the group were quite kind-hearted. They were understandably distressed that their own husbands or sons had suffered, but they couldn't just stand by and watch them die. While they didn't complain, some of them still felt a little uneasy.

Now everyone is happy!

The women at home were happily hoping that those who hadn't returned would come back soon.

When they returned, they brought even more surprises.

The village was even more lively than during the Spring Festival.

Captain Wu didn't forget Cheng Wenkai and the people from the armed forces department, as well as Hexi Village. He even left some prey for them.

The remaining teams were divided up.
