"Now I'm telling you, besides the four of us, there are sixteen other people scattered in the mountains around here. You must burn the mountains."

"Who gave this order?"

“Our boss wants to take the lead, and he’s determined to achieve something, so he’s set his sights on you guys…”

"Hmph, your leader passed away a few years ago, and no one has taken over since. Do you think he can become the top leader by doing such heinous things?"

"Are our mountains connected to yours? We can't escape, and neither can your people. We'll oust him in a minute. Do you still want to take over?" Lu Yu angrily poked the man in black on the head.

The men in black widened their eyes upon hearing this; they hadn't considered this at all.

"Let's check their bodies to see if they've drawn any maps?"

After Song Zhe finished speaking, he began searching. A short while later, he retrieved a topographical map.

Lu Yu leaned closer for a look, and his brows immediately furrowed. "The location of these icons is very detailed; it seems they planned this all along."

"How did you get this picture?" Song Zhe asked coldly.

"These were given to us by our superiors. There are several copies, one for each of the four of us. We don't know where they came from," one of the men in black said hastily, afraid that he would be kicked again.

"Have you had any contact with people from any country behind your back?" Song Zhe asked again.

"Yes, with the Soviet Union. They provided us with some weapons and equipment, and they might even have drawn this map."

"Let's go out and find the commander first; we won't get any information out of him right now."

After Song Zhe finished speaking, he went with Lu Yu to find Zhou Jin.

After Su Tian left the space, she opened the door and saw that the door next door was still locked, so she knew that Song Zhe and the others had not returned yet.

She glanced at her watch; it was already nine o'clock. Without asking any more questions, she lay down on the bed and went to sleep.

After finding Zhou Jin, Lu Yu and Song Zhe relayed everything the man in black had said.

"Commander, that's the situation. We should move out now."

After listening to Song Zhe's words, Zhou Jin's expression turned solemn. "The State of Su has always been eyeing us covetously. They used to be on good terms with us."

After the relationship soured, I never expected them to resort to such despicable tactics.

After discussing it for a while, the three of them decided to split into two groups tomorrow. Zhou Jin hurriedly said, "Song Zhe, you take people to stop the burning of the mountain, and Lu Yu, you take people to investigate those who are colluding with the Su Kingdom."

"Received." The two replied in unison.

When the two returned to their dormitory, the entire dormitory building was quiet.

"What time do we get up and leave tomorrow?" Lu Yu asked Song Zhe.

"It's six o'clock, it's already ten o'clock, it's very late. I'll take a shower first and then go to bed early."

"Alright."

The next morning at six o'clock, before dawn, Song Zhe and Lu Yu got up and ran ten laps around the track. After breakfast, they gathered at the training ground to count the number of people.

Song Zhe gave instructions to a soldier to bring breakfast to Su Tian after 8 o'clock, and then took 30 people to search for suspicious persons on the mountain.

It was just dawn when Lu Yu led several people to investigate the matter of collusion with the Soviet Union.

When Song Zhe and his group arrived in the mountains, he looked at the identification marks found on the men in black and had them pass them around for review.

"Did you understand everything?"

"Understood."

At this moment, Squad Leader Wang spoke up, "Battalion Commander, let's split into six groups, with five people in each group to conduct the search."

"Okay, if you find anything, remember to protect your personal safety."

"yes."

Song Zhe led his team to split into groups and search. The fog in the mountains obstructed their vision, so they proceeded cautiously.

When Song Zhe and his team reached a valley, they heard faint conversations.

Song Zhe quickly gestured for a pause and quietly approached. It turned out to be men in black again, discussing their route for setting the fire.

Song Zhe and his teammates exchanged glances and then suddenly rushed out.

The other party was shocked, but quickly fought back, and the two sides were deadlocked for a time.

"If we can't beat them, we'll just shoot them," Song Zhe suddenly said.

"yes."

Upon hearing Song Zhe's words, the man in black began to panic.

They only had daggers, but no guns; their organization hadn't been willing to issue them any.

Just as the men in black were in a panic, Song Zhe's team gained momentum and gradually gained the upper hand.

After several rounds, the men in black were all subdued.

Song Zhe confiscated their daggers, squatted down, and sternly questioned them: "How many accomplices do you have in these mountains? If you don't tell me, I'll stab you again and again with your daggers."

When the others heard their battalion commander speak so violently, they all covered their mouths and laughed.

The man in black answered tremblingly, "No...not many left, just seven or eight."

"You guys keep an eye on these men in black. I'm going to check on the other team members."

"Yes, Battalion Commander."

After arranging for some team members to guard the men in black, Song Zhe continued searching for the other team members without stopping.

At eight o'clock, Su Tian finally got up. After washing up, she heard a knock on the door.

She was wondering who had knocked on the door when she opened it and the soldier said, "Sister-in-law, this is breakfast that the battalion commander asked me to bring you."

Su Tian smiled and accepted it, then quickly said, "Wait a moment."

She placed the breakfast on the table, then took out a handful of White Rabbit candies from her purse and handed them to him.

"Take this and eat it; it's a thank-you gift for you."

"This is too expensive, I can't accept it, sister-in-law."

“Take it if I give it to you. If you don’t, I’ll punish your battalion commander by not letting him eat when he comes back.”

"Okay, I'll take it. Thank you, sister-in-law. I'll be going now."

"Okay, thank you."

"You're welcome, sister-in-law."

Su Tian watched the little soldier walk away happily with the candy, and couldn't help but smile.

When the soldier who delivered breakfast returned to the parade ground, the people who were training saw him laughing like that and they all gathered around him.

"Hey, it's just delivering breakfast, why are you laughing like that?"

"Xiaosong, I brought breakfast to my sister-in-law, and she gave me a handful of candy. I ate the candy, so how could I not be happy?"

"Hey, what kind of candy? Give me one."

"I want one too..."

At this moment, the female soldiers from the cultural troupe who were running on the playground all stopped and watched the group of them grabbing candy.

"What kind of candy is worth fighting over?" Li Qian asked them curiously.

"Oh, my sister-in-law gave me White Rabbit candies, I want to try them all," Xiao Song replied with a simple smile.

"Whose candy is so delicious?"

"Our battalion commander, of course, finds the candy given by his sister-in-law, who is as beautiful as an angel, sweet."

"Tch, like a celestial being? Is she really that beautiful? She's just average-looking, but you guys are praising her to the skies."

"Hmph, anyway, she's much prettier and gentler than you," Xiao Zhang retorted with dissatisfaction.

Upon hearing this, everyone secretly covered their mouths and laughed.

"What's so funny? Why aren't you going for a run? Will you get any food sitting here?"

When everyone heard that Xie Ling was angry, they quickly dispersed.
