" Reporting to the command center, the situation in Qianyang County has been investigated. Hu Sanpao stored the ill-gotten gains in a bank called the Gathering Wealth Bank…"
Two days later, Wang Yi was sitting in the stronghold of the base. In front of him stood a dark-skinned man dressed in coarse cloth. He looked no different from a local farmer in Hunan.
"This spy is indeed worth the money. Although one requires 200 resource points, the efficiency is really not to be underestimated.”
Wang Yi nodded in satisfaction as he listened to the report from Spy 01.
"Although this Wealth Gathering Bank is a silver bank on the surface, it is actually helping Hu Sanpao to sell stolen goods. Through him, they lend usury, and in this year, countless people have been forced to destroy their families…Hu Sanpao, since the heavens don't want to take you in, then let me take you in!”
……
"Motherf * cker, how dare you ask me to tolerate it? I, Hu Sanpao, have always respected me since I started my business. A few days ago, someone actually took advantage of the time when I went to congratulate Master Qian on his birthday and destroyed my old nest. Damn it, those useless things were tied up like dumplings. All the supplies were moved away cleanly, not leaving a single hair for me. Where do you want me to put my old face?!”
In a four-door mansion in Qianyang County, a bald man wearing riding boots and a military uniform was cursing loudly.
In front of him, a middle-aged man who looked like a scholar stroked his long beard and laughed softly."Commander Hu, you are wrong. It is not that we do not want revenge, but the time has not come.”
"Not yet? Scholar Kong, don't keep me in suspense. Why isn't it time yet?”Hu Sanpao's eyes were wide open, as if he wanted to eat someone alive.
The middle-aged scholar was still unhurried as he asked softly,"Commander Hu has been interrogating several people in a row these past few days. Is there any news?”
"Bullsh * t, if I had any news, I would have come to you. I would have gone to settle the score with them long ago. That Zhao Si was beaten into a deformed state, not even a single tooth was left in his mouth. No matter who he saw, he only knew how to kowtow and beg for mercy on the ground…The remaining bunch of trash, none of them could see their faces clearly. They were all lying on the ground and gnawing on the mud!”
"Hehe…Although the living have no clues, the dead can't lie!”
"Dead people?" Hu Sanpao stared at the middle-aged scholar, his face puzzled.
The middle-aged scholar had expected this. He smiled and took out something from his robe. He placed it gently on the stone table and said,"Commander, please take a look. What is this?"
"Bullets?" Hu Sanpao picked up the object on the stone table and looked at it carefully, then asked in confusion,"These are just ordinary bullets.”
"This is a 7.7mm bullet from a British-made Lee Enfield rifle, commonly known as the British 77.”The middle-aged scholar said indifferently.
"English 77?" Hu Sanpao shook his head in confusion.
The middle-aged scholar's face flashed with a hint of disdain, but he immediately recovered and continued,"This British 77 is not common in China.”
Hu Sanpao thought for a while and suddenly realized: "Scholar Kong, do you mean that if we find the person who used the Ying-77 rifle, we will find the person who harmed me?”
"Commander is wise, this Kong has the same intention.”
"But, you just said that this British 77 is not common in the country. How can we find it?”Hu Sanpao was still confused.
"Commander, it seems like we can't hold on to Wu Han anymore. Recently, I heard that a large number of troops have begun to gather in Changsha.”
"En, I've heard a little about it…Damn it, even 500,000 troops in Wuhan couldn't defend it!”
Hu Sanpao couldn't help but tremble, as if he had thought of something extremely terrifying.
"If we can't protect WuHan, I'm afraid the commander's security team will also be dragged to Changsha City. At that time, they will die for no reason.”The middle-aged scholar squinted his eyes, as if he could see through everything about Hu Sanpao.
Hu Sanpao's body shook again, and he asked,""Then what do you mean?"
"Haha…Commander, it's better to plan ahead.”The middle-aged scholar leaned back on the armchair and revealed a meaningful smile.
At night, in Qianyang County.
The pitch-black night enveloped this small county city. Dozens of people stood on the streets like statues with their heads lowered.
A young man with a black cloth covering his face and a Leenfield rifle on his back stood in front of everyone. It was Wang Yi.
"For this mission, unless it is absolutely necessary, do not shoot. After we get the goods from the money house, quickly move to the east gate.”
"Yes, Commander!" Everyone was stunned.
Then, under the cover of the night, they surrounded a tall courtyard not far away.
"Bah, damn it, building a heavy industry actually requires 5000 resource points. Isn't this robbing money?”Wang Yi spat on the ground as he watched everyone slowly disappear into the night.
After plundering the guns and ammunition of the Fourth Security Team, he obtained a total of more than 3000 resource points, which made Wang Yi happy for two days. However, after spending 2000 to build the mining factory, he spent another 400 to create two spies and replenish 100 clone soldiers. His resource points were almost at the end.
Therefore, Wang Yi couldn't wait and had the idea of amassing money house. Tonight, Wang Yi split his forces into two groups and used 30 people to sneak into the amassing money house at night. In addition, he disguised as a spy who had infiltrated the money house during the day.
They split up another 30 people and hid at the east gate of Qianyang County. After the guards guarding the gate fell asleep late at night, they took down the east gate and escaped without anyone knowing.
In fact, Wang Yi wasn't afraid of exchanging fire with the Qianyang County defenders. However, he was only after Hu Sanpao's ill-gotten gains. It wasn't a wise move to clash with the 74th Mixed Brigade at this time.
As the saying goes, the rafters that stick out rot first. Wang Yi did not want to expose his strength too early. It was better to make a fortune quietly.
Late at night, Qianyang County was completely silent. Occasionally, dogs would bark, as if the entire world was asleep.
The wooden door inlaid with copper nails was left ajar, and the pungent smell of blood filled the courtyard. Four strong men quickly carried a large, thinly painted wooden box out of the cellar. One of them opened the wooden box with a crowbar.
Wang Yi walked in front of the wooden box and could not help but gasp. Such a huge wooden box was actually filled with Big Head Yuan.
"Great-grandmother, how much silver is this?”Wang Yi could not help but curse.
"Reporting to the commander, there are a total of 13 guards and shopkeepers in the bank. They have all been killed. A few women from the brothel are tied up in the west wing room, waiting for the commander to deal with them.”
A man wearing a cap and looking like a shop assistant walked up to Wang Yi and reported respectfully.
"Don't worry about those women. How many of these boxes are there in the cellar?”Wang Yi waved his hand and let him continue.
"There are twenty-six of these boxes in the cellar. However, other than some silver coins, some of the boxes contain antiques and paintings.”
"Take them away, of course, take them away…I'm so poor right now. No matter how small a grasshopper is, it's still meat.”Wang Yile couldn't close his mouth.
……
Huaihua City had been known as the " Gateway of Guizhou and Yunnan " and the " Throat of Chu " since ancient times. It was the bridgehead of the eastern and central regions that led to the southwest. The convenience of transportation and the prosperity of trade made this small city exceptionally prosperous.
The streets were filled with young girls dressed in traditional Dong costumes. They wore silver necklaces around their necks, making tinkling sounds as they walked, like a piece of pleasant music.
In the northwest of Huaihua City, there was a large mansion with golden bricks, green tiles, and bluestone paved roads. It was the location of the former Qing governor's office, and the headquarters of the 74th Mixed Brigade of the National Revolutionary Army was located here.
"Big brother, you have to give me justice…my troops were disarmed, and even my adjutant was killed by them because he fought bravely. Some of my savings over the years were also robbed by them.”
In the main hall, Hu Sanpao was kneeling on the ground, wailing, his face covered in tears and snot.
In the front seat, a middle-aged man with the rank of major general was silent. He gently picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip. This person was the brigade commander of the 74th mixed brigade, Qian Baichuan.
" Brother, you don't have to be so polite. I've already heard about what happened to you, but from all the signs, it's all the work of the 99th Army…" Qian Baichuan suddenly paused, and his gentle gaze became unusually sharp. Hu Sanpao broke out in cold sweat.
"This 99th division is the newly formed direct line of command of Old Jiang. They are all Huang Busheng. Do you have the guts of a bear or a leopard to want me to touch him?”Qian Baichuan suddenly shouted.
Hu Sanpao was so scared that he sat on the ground, cold sweat dripping down his forehead, trembling so much that he couldn't say a word.
Scholar Kong, who was standing at the side, suddenly smiled and stepped forward."General, please calm down. Captain Hu is worried about you. Qianyang County is your territory, and the 99th division is just a new army that has just been deployed to guard Changsha.”
Qian Baichuan looked up at Scholar Kong and remained silent. However, this had already made his position clear. Scholar Kong smiled and continued," I've already investigated. The Zhang family in Qianyang County has always been unruly, relying on their ancestors being officials in the Qing Dynasty. They bully the people and cause trouble. I heard that their second son, Zhang Yiping, was admitted to Huangpu Military Academy two years ago. This time, he's assigned to the 99th Army as a lieutenant and deputy company commander.”
"Oh? There's actually such a thing!"
Qian Baichuan's expression changed slightly. He glanced at Hu Sanpao on the ground and said with disdain,""I'll leave this matter to you to handle. You have to let them know who has the final say in Qianyang County. I'll send a company to assist you…This time, be more alert.”
"Bang bang…big brother, this little brother will do it now. I won't disappoint big brother.”
Hu Sanpao was lying on the ground, kowtowing nonstop, shaking the bluestone floor.
