Chapter 249 Mourning Clothes
"Ah! There's a ghost!"
Jiang Feiyan saw a snow-white figure in the room and stepped back with fright, her face pale.
However, in her panic, her foot was tripped by the threshold and she fell to the ground.
People nearby rushed over.
"Ghost, there's a ghost in there!"
Jiang Feiyan pointed at the white shadow inside and screamed loudly.
The people around were Hu Dacai's guards. When they heard the noise, they drew their guns and looked into the room.
Seeing that the person inside was Yuan Shuai and no one else, the soldiers quickly retracted their pistols and smiled at Yuan Shuai inside.
"Boss, what are you doing?"
Yuan Shuai walked out wearing a snow-white suit and even a hat made of white cloth on his head.
It looks like a "filial son" wearing mourning clothes.
This thing is very taboo, ordinary people dare not wear it like this.
And the brothers in the guard squad are also very superstitious about this.
After all, they may go to the battlefield at any time, and such unlucky clothes are too unlucky.
"Yuan Shuai?!"
Seeing clearly that it was Yuan Shuai, Jiang Feiyan endured the pain and climbed up, pointing at Yuan Shuai's nose and cursing.
"You son of a bitch, why wear mourning clothes when you can wear anything else? You scared the hell out of me!"
Hu Dacai rushed over upon hearing the noise.
Seeing Yuan Shuai in his white mourning clothes, everyone couldn't help but complain.
"Boss, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but why are you wearing this? It's unlucky. Change it now!"
"Changed?! These are life-saving clothes!"
Yuan Shuai raised his head and puffed out his chest proudly.
"Save my life?! You scared me to death, and you're still trying to save my life... You made so much white cloth, you're not going to use it to make this thing! Are you crazy? How many of our brothers don't have good uniforms to wear? How dare you waste cloth like this? How can you be the boss!"
Jiang Feiyan was so angry that she yelled loudly.
Yuan Shuai was not angry, but said with a smile.
"You are a girl with long hair and little knowledge. You have never fought in a war, so you naturally don't know its wonderful use!"
"My hair is long!"
Jiang Feiyan touched her hair unconvinced.
You know what, although her hair is not long, it is already shoulder-length, much longer than Yuan Shuai and the others' hair.
But Yuan Shuai shouldn’t have said such things to anger her.
"I, what's wrong with my long hair? Do you think I want to be your factory manager? If you don't force me, I don't want to be your shitty factory manager!"
Jiang Feiyan put her hands on her hips and spit all over Yuan Shuai's face.
Yuan Shuai was still not angry. He just smiled faintly, then looked up at the sky and said.
"It's going to snow in this horrible weather. If it snows, and we keep wearing the same clothes and move in the snow, it will be easy to expose our position. So I'm going to make some clothes like this. When we ambush in the snow wearing these clothes, the Japanese won't be able to find us at all! When the time comes, we can attack them by surprise and have a good fight with them! Kill more Japanese!"
Hearing this, all the soldiers were stunned, and then became excited one by one.
"Boss, this is a good idea!"
"Snow is white. If I ambush in the snow wearing this, the enemy won't be able to find me at all!"
"Okay, Boss, this is a great idea. But wearing this pure white dress looks like mourning clothes, which is too unlucky!"
After the excitement, Hu Dacai's words made the smiles on everyone's faces suddenly freeze.
They are all quite superstitious and naturally don't want to wear mourning clothes.
Yuan Shuai, however, looked up to the sky and sighed.
"You are right, this is indeed mourning clothes."
"How many of our brothers died in the Battle of Shanghai, how many of our brothers died in the Battle of Nanjing, shouldn't we wear mourning clothes for the dead? By wearing mourning clothes and thinking about our dead comrades and brothers, we can kill more devils!"
"well said!"
Hu Dacai gave a thumbs up in praise, and at the same time dispelled his prejudice against this "mourning dress".
Because many of his comrades and brothers died at the hands of the Japanese.
Even if we have to wear mourning clothes for these dead brothers, so what?
Jiang Feiyan rolled her eyes and complained.
"Ignorance! Do you really think it can snow all year long?"
"Even if it only snows for a few days, as long as we can use this clothing to disguise our brothers and kill the devils, then it's worth it! Give the order to make the 'mourning clothes' immediately. It will probably snow soon!"
"You really think you are a god. You can make it snow if you say so!"
Jiang Feiyan knew that she couldn't convince Yuan Shuai, so she could only limp away, holding her waist.
However, three days later, heavy snow suddenly began to fall from the sky.
It snowed heavily all night.
The next day, the ground and the roof were covered with snow.
Jiang Feiyan got up, saw snowflakes in the sky, and rushed out excitedly to play in the snow on the ground.
"Have you heard? Yuan Shuai and his men made a lot of white mourning clothes! They said they would wear them when it snows so they can hide and fight the enemy! I didn't expect it to actually snow!"
"Yes, Yuan Shuai is really a master of foresight. He even predicted that it would snow!"
Listening to the noises around him, Jiang Feiyang's face turned red with embarrassment.
But she still pouted and muttered in dissatisfaction.
"He's just lucky!"...
At this time, Yuan Shuai had already left the county and was in the camp outside the city.
He stood next to the sand table and pointed at the map.
"Although there are no Japanese invaders in Qiuning County, no one can guarantee that there are no Japanese spies inside. As for Qiuyun County, Miyamoto Aoyama must be in the county and dare not come out. So, we must hurry up and go from Qiuyun County to Fengling County."
"Are we going to attack the county again?!"
"Boss, the distance is too far!"
"The battlefield is too long, which is not good for us!"
Monkey Fatty and others immediately refuted.
"Who said I was going to attack the county? Let's first find a way to kill the Japanese outside the county and destroy all the bunkers outside! By the way, get some ammunition and food from the bunkers!"
Yuan Shuai’s words made everyone excited.
After all, attacking the county town requires a lot of heavy weapons, which cannot be transported there on a snowy day. Even if they are transported there, it will take a lot of time and they will easily be discovered by the Japanese.
But the situation was different for the Japanese puppet troops and bunkers attacking the outskirts of the county town.
Besides, they all have "mourning clothes", which makes it more convenient for them to fight in the snow.
After giving some instructions, Yuan Shuai led Hu Dacai's guard squad and headed towards Qiu Ning County first.
Because if you want to go to Fengling County, you must first pass through Qiu Ning County.
Although Qiu Ning County had been captured by General Yuan before, the Japanese had not yet dared to send troops to enter Qiu Ning County.
But there were many Japanese spies hidden in Qiuning County, and even some traitors who were collecting intelligence for the Japanese.
This time, Yuan Shuai went there to deal with these spies and traitors.
They thought that if they didn't kill these guys, their actions would be easily discovered by the Japanese, and they would be in a passive position then.
