Chapter 361 Black Tiger Stronghold
Chapter 361 Black Tiger Stronghold
At this moment, inside Tianlang Village.
Wang Gang and the others stared with gleaming eyes at the mountain of supplies piled up in the bandit's warehouse.
The warehouse, spanning over a thousand square meters, was half-filled with grain, along with several boxes of gold, silver, jewelry, antiques, calligraphy, and paintings, as well as over 100,000 rounds of various weapons and ammunition, a heavy machine gun, and two homemade cannons.
"Goodness, these bandits have quite a bit of wealth!"
After his initial shock, Wang Yu couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
Wang Gang, who was standing to the side, nodded in agreement.
"Didn't you say you just got back not long ago? How come there are so many supplies here?"
Gao Qiang looked at the middle-aged bandit next to him, who was tightly bound, with some doubt.
"Sir, this is what our old manager accumulated little by little during his lifetime. In his words, it was to leave everyone a way out, a foundation for a comeback."
Before Gao Qiang could even speak after hearing the middle-aged bandit's words, Gao Sheng couldn't help but chime in.
"Hey, this old bandit boss is quite farsighted, but now all these supplies belong to us."
Wang Gang, who was standing to the side, nodded repeatedly, as this solved a major problem for him.
Because of the Japanese blockade, winter food is hard to come by. Now that they have this batch of food, their guerrilla team's food reserves, which were somewhat strained due to the arrival of Gao Qiang and others, have finally been replenished.
Without this batch of grain, he probably would have had to shamelessly beg Bai Luo for alms.
Bai Xiumei and Qin Lan were not there; they were following behind Li Sheng, exploring the entire surrounding area of the valley.
As they walked, Li Sheng explained the situation in the valley to the two of them.
After Bai Xiumei returned to the council hall, she spoke to Wang Gang, who was still in a state of excitement.
"Secretary Wang, I just walked around the area, and this place is very suitable as a new base for the guerrillas."
Take some men back and move all the supplies here tonight.
"Yes, Minister Bai, I was also planning to bring this up. This place is indeed excellent, easy to defend and difficult to attack, with ready-made houses to live in, and more importantly, the bandits' warehouse has a large amount of grain. I will make the arrangements now."
After saying this, Wang Gang immediately led Wang Yu and more than 10 guerrillas back to their previous base.
"Is there anything else the commander needs me to do?"
Li Sheng, who had been silent all along, saw that everyone in the hall had left to complete their tasks. Eager to prove his worth, Li Sheng asked Bai Xiumei somewhat nervously.
Bai Xiumei noticed Li Sheng's nervousness and smiled at him.
"Li Sheng, everything's fine for now. As for your request to join the guerrillas, I'll seriously consider it. Go find a place to rest, and I'll send someone to let you know when I have a result."
Although Li Sheng had a rugged appearance, he was quite shrewd. He knew that this Commander Bai was just making excuses.
Her so-called consideration must have been to find other captured bandits to verify what she had said.
However, he was not worried because he had told Bai Xiumei the truth.
Thinking of this, Li Sheng quickly responded.
"Yes, Chief Bai."
Then he turned around and walked out the door.
"and many more."
Li Sheng, who was almost at the door, immediately stopped upon hearing this.
"Chief Bai, is there anything I can do for you?"
"Hmm, there is something I forgot to ask you. You said you were operating in Chun City before. Do you know anything about Black Tiger Stronghold?"
"Heh, of course they know. It was their second-in-command who tricked our leader into trying to steal the wife of the traitorous battalion commander."
The more Li Sheng thought about it, the angrier he became.
"Have they done anything heinous or immoral?"
Bai Xiumei pretended not to hear Li Sheng's complaint and continued to ask.
"No, not really. Sometimes they don't act like bandits. They're all brave and daring, and they specifically target the Japanese and their collaborators."
Putting aside the fact that they tricked our village, I personally admire them quite a bit. I think their leader's name was Yang Yu.
Bai Xiumei nodded upon hearing this, as it was roughly consistent with the information she had gathered.
As for why she asked this question, it's because her original bodyguard, Liu Qiao, was someone she sent to Chunshi to deliver a radio to the comrades at the underground intelligence station there.
The comrades at the underground intelligence station in Chunshi wanted this radio station to deliver to Yang Yu of Black Tiger Village.
The purpose was that the comrades at the Red Party's underground intelligence station wanted to recruit Yang Yu and others into the Red Party.
Both sides are currently in a period of mutual evaluation, and sending the radio station over is also a gesture of goodwill from the Red Party.
Bai Xiumei glanced at Li Sheng, who was still standing in the hall, and gestured for him to go back and rest.
After Li Sheng left, Bai Xiumei was the only one left in the hall.
As for Qin Lan, Bai Xiumei guessed she had gone to cause trouble for Gao Qiang.
As she slowly walked out of the council hall, Bai Xiumei looked up in the direction of Er City.
He murmured.
"I wonder how Little Radish is doing?"
Meanwhile, Bai Luo, who was being thought about by Bai Xiumei, was looking at the pig's head in front of her.
"Ni Di, where is the God of Shooting? Where is the God of Feeding the House? Will it be planted and separated?"
Looking at Itai Jujiro, whose mouth was slurred and whose face was swollen like a pig's head.
Zhang Qing glanced at the culprit with a somewhat annoyed expression.
Bai Luo was also somewhat embarrassed.
Little did he know that the old Japanese soldier was so thin-skinned; before he even used much force, the old soldier's face was already so swollen that his features were unrecognizable.
Helpless, Bai Luo could only knock out the still stammering Jujiro Itagaki with a single chop.
"Hehe, Uncle Zhang, since we've already brought him back, there's no rush to interrogate him. Let's wait until tomorrow when this old devil can speak his mind before asking him questions, shall we?"
Zhang Qing nodded upon hearing this; for now, this was the only option.
Considering that hiding this old Japanese soldier in his own home wasn't very safe, Zhang Qing spoke up.
"Take him back to your place now. I'm afraid something might happen if he stays with me."
Bai Luo agreed with Zhang Qing's words, after all, the Japanese commander had been lost, and the Japanese would definitely go crazy tomorrow.
So Bai Luo quickly packed up Itai Jujiro, then slung him over his shoulder and prepared to return to the cave.
Then, out of the corner of my eye, I saw Li Tiantian still staring at the silly bear and laughing, and I instantly remembered something.
"Uncle Zhang, I'm taking Li Tiantian with me too. I happen to need a doctor."
Without waiting for Zhang Qing's reply, Bai Luo grabbed Li Tiantian, who was still somewhat dazed, and rushed out of the inner room.
Silly Girl and Silly Bear immediately followed them out.
In the blink of an eye, only Zhang Qing, who was still somewhat dazed, remained in the room.
"Hey, you brat, the whole mutual aid society is yours, are you afraid I won't agree? Why are you running away so fast?"
Zhang Qing glanced outside the courtyard, then turned around and began to tidy up the vegetable bowls on the table.
Because of the silly bear covering the bottom, the vegetable bowl looked exceptionally clean.
Zhang Qing finished cleaning the dining table in no time.
10:45 PM.
Bai Luo and his group crawled out of the tunnel in the south of the city. Just as Bai Luo was about to lead Sha Niu and the others back to the cave, he saw a Red Party symbol appear on the edge of the detection range on the radar.
It is moving slowly.
Bai Luo frowned upon seeing this, wondering why there would be members of the Red Party appearing in that direction.
Bai Luo decided to go and take a look.
"Silly girl, you take this old Japanese devil and Li Tiantian back to the camp. I have some things to do."
After saying this, Bai Luo jumped onto the bear's back.
"Silly bear, south."
Upon hearing Bai Luo's command, the silly bear let out a low growl and ran south.
