"Young commander, you can ask the shops in the city, maybe someone will know where there are lychee trees nearby."

Squad leader Yue whispered beside Sun Guangmin.

"Young Marshal, I'll go with him. Anyway, there are no enemies here, and I don't need to stay here."

Gao Laosan's voice suddenly sounded, causing Sun Guangmin to nod slightly: "Okay, you guys go and come back quickly."

Gao Laosan and Squad Leader Yue left the woods and walked down the mountain along the mountain road.

Right now there is no lychee wood to deal with Jin Jing's body, so everyone can only wait.

Sun Guangmin and others sat in the shade of the tree and rested for a while. The soldiers put the corpse on the ground and sat down for a while to rest.

Not long after, Company Commander Zhao and the fat Taoist priest came together, bringing more than a dozen soldiers with them, all holding shovels and hoes.

"Young Marshal, you guys have come back safely. This day has made my subordinates worry."

After the fat Taoist walked into the woods, he said it with a smile on his face.

"Well, we have settled the matter of Jin Jing, but many soldiers of the Northern Army died in battle. You can dispose of their bodies, and then go to the place where you usually bury the soldiers of the Northern Army, and bring a few people to bury the bodies."

After Sun Guangmin gave the order, the fat Taoist priest responded: "Your subordinate obeys the order, let's do it now."

The fat Taoist priest and Company Commander Zhao led more than 30 soldiers and walked down the mountain road. When they reached the mountainside, the fat Taoist priest pointed to a place on the left and said:
"It's there. Some soldiers of our Northern Army were killed in battle before, and they were all buried there. Let's bury these dead soldiers there now."

As a staff officer, the fat Taoist priest had the highest official rank among the soldiers. After he gave the order, everyone took the order and walked to the open space on the left, and then began to dig a hole, and then buried the bodies of the soldiers who died in battle. .

Sun Guangmin, Huang Ying and the others were still waiting in the woods on the top of the mountain. After a while, Squad Leader Yue and Gao Laosan had returned, both carrying a big sack on their backs.

"How is it? Did you find the lychee wood?"

Sun Guangmin asked anxiously.

"We found it. We found shopkeeper Yu, who sells groceries in the city. He happened to have lychee wood in his house. When he heard that it was for our Northern Army to use, he didn't charge any money, and just packed two sacks for us. "

Squad leader Yue reported immediately.

This made Sun Guangmin a little displeased, and said: "This is not allowed, have you forgotten the discipline of our Northern Army?"

"Young commander, it's my fault that my subordinates didn't explain clearly. The shopkeeper Yu wanted to give it to us for free, but I disagreed. I insisted on leaving a piece of ocean for the shopkeeper Yu, and then we left."

As Squad Leader Yue said, he and Gao Laosan put down the sack behind their backs, and poured out the lychee wood inside.

Huang Ying looked at the large pile of lychee wood on the ground, and said softly, "Lychee wood is very precious, and these lychee woods are worth at least five ocean dollars."

"Oh, young commander, I don't know the price, and the shopkeeper Yu refuses to accept the money. If the Taoist nun hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't know. I will go there again later, and I will give the shopkeeper another four yuan."

Squad Leader Yue said in fear.

"Well, those who don't know are not to be blamed, this money can't be taken by you personally, but should be paid by our Northern Army."

As he spoke, Sun Guangmin took out five ocean dollars from his pocket and handed them to Squad Leader Yue. After the latter took it, he gave a military salute, walked out of the woods, and went down the mountain.

"You divide the lychee wood into two piles, a large pile and a small pile."

Huang Ying said something to the soldiers, but the soldiers didn't move, but looked at Sun Guangmin. In their hearts, only Sun Guangmin was the officer.

"You do as she says."

After Sun Guangmin spoke, the soldiers responded: "Yes, young commander."

The two soldiers began to sort the lychee wood, and put them in an even place, and quickly produced two piles of lychee wood, one pile with more lychee wood, and the other pile with less lychee wood, just in line with Huang Ying's order.

"Fat Kui, go and replace Staff Officer Zhang, let him go to Li Sandao's house, and call Li Qingshan and Li Chengying."

After Sun Guangmin finished speaking, Fat Kui on the side replied loudly: "Yes, young commander, this subordinate will go right away."

Fat Kui walked down the mountain road and yelled a few times: "Staff Zhang, come here."

Halfway up the mountain, Fat Kui's shout was heard by the fat Taoist priest, and he hurried to the mountain path from the burial place, and asked, "Brother, what do you want me for?"

"Young Marshal ordered you to go to Li Sandao's house and call Li Qingshan and Li. I forgot their names, but there are two people."

"Oh, I see, his house is not far away, it's on Qifeng Mountain, I'll go right away."

"Let's go then, I'll be with you."

Fat Taoist and Fat Kui continued to walk down the mountain road, and they saw the house of Li Sandao's family after not walking far.

When the two of them walked to the gate, the fat Taoist shouted, "Is anyone there?"
