The Japanese invaders took advantage of the cold weather and mobilized more than 100,000 troops to cut off the connection between the general headquarters of the Second Route Army of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Allied Forces and the combat troops abroad. They wanted to freeze and starve the anti-Japanese soldiers who lacked winter clothes and food to death in the mountains.

Because he was willing to use his brain and fought bravely, he soon became the squad leader. This time the leader gave him the task again, and he naturally understood what this meant.

Jiang Molin brought a small group of cavalry to the outside of Yilan County. He asked everyone to hide the horses and sledges, changed into a pair of dirty clothes, and then carried a torn sack with dirty clothes inside. The smelly soybean hid twenty thousand yuan of money to buy goods inside, and walked towards the city gate in a swaggering manner.

The Japanese soldiers guarding the city gate saw a child coming and stepped forward to investigate.

Jiang Molin grabbed a handful of soybeans and showed them to them, saying, "Sell horse feed!" The Japanese soldier smelled a sour smell and hurriedly covered his nose and waved his hand to let him pass.

After entering the city, Jiang Molin successfully found the comrades of the underground party and explained his purpose of coming. The underground party organization decided to mobilize the masses to purchase goods through the Anti-Japanese Salvation Association. Jiang Molin left the money and went out of the city to wait.

The people in the city quickly bought all the items. They used various methods to secretly transport the items out of the city and handed them over to Jiang Molin's team. The underground party also sent guerrillas to escort the transport team back to their base.

Not long after the transportation team loaded up the sledge and set off, the enemy discovered it and immediately sent a horse team to pursue it. Jiang Molin sent other transport team members to rush back to the camp against time, while he stayed and ambushed the enemy with the guerrillas.

After a while, hundreds of enemy cavalry came forward. Jiang Molin told everyone: "Calm down! We have to entangle the enemy and ensure that the transport team returns to the camp!"

Jiang Molin led the soldiers to fight fiercely for more than two hours, winning valuable time for the transport team. After dark, he ordered to withdraw from the battle and pursue the convoy. The next day, the transport team was loaded with winter supplies and joined the response troops sent by the general headquarters.
