After a month of reconnaissance, the special forces had made significant progress. It was learned that the Wolf Fang Village bandits were occupying the Hump. The bridge was the only way to the Hump and was also the first checkpoint. There were two more checkpoints after that. Ever since Long Kong 'er had defeated the bandits at the bridge, Old Ma had redeployed his forces and firepower. The number of bandits had increased by ten times, to more than two hundred people. He had also sent Tie Tuo to guard the bridge.
In order to eliminate the bandits as soon as possible, Company Commander Yang was holding a battle meeting. " Comrades," Company Commander Yang said loudly," the special forces have successfully completed the reconnaissance mission assigned by their superiors in the past month. The superiors have even given the special forces a collective commendation. In particular, he rewarded Long Kong 'er's special forces for solving the spy case in the regiment hospital and destroying the contact point of the bandits in the Immortals Gathering Restaurant. He gave Long Kong' er's special forces a second-class merit and Long Kong 'er a first-class merit.”
As soon as Company Commander Yang finished speaking, the conference room burst into warm applause. Everyone cast envious looks at Long Kong 'er. Long Kong 'er felt very proud and smiled happily.
Commander Yang continued," The People's Liberation Army has already won the three major battles of Liaoshen, Huaihai, and Pingjin. The People's Liberation Army is about to free the entire Celestial Empire and welcome the establishment of the new Celestial Empire. The higher-ups have instructed us to eliminate the brigands and clear the first checkpoint within a month.”
Everyone was shocked. This was an impossible task. In the battle of the bridge, our side had 150 people, while the enemy had 200 people. Our side was at a disadvantage in terms of numbers. Moreover, the location of the bridge was very dangerous. The bridge was a narrow stone bridge, and the bandits had several machine guns blocking the bridge. How could the special forces cross the bridge?
Seeing that everyone was not confident, Company Commander Yang said firmly,"This mission is extremely dangerous. However, I must complete the mission given to me by my superiors!”
Long Kong 'er said," Company Commander, I request to be the vanguard. We'll sneak into the other side of the bridge and infiltrate the bandits. Then, we'll meet up inside and wipe out the bandits in one fell swoop."”
Everyone was shocked again and looked at Long Kong 'er in unison.
"Captain Long, how many soldiers do you need?" Commander Yang chuckled.”
"I only want Mei Kunli and Ye Fei.”
"There are only three of you?" Commander Yang asked in surprise.”
"Company commander, we have more people and a bigger target. It's easy to be exposed.”
"Captain Long, your idea is very good! Comrades, get ready for battle. Just wait for Captain Long's signal to launch an attack. The meeting is over."
When the meeting ended, everyone left. Long Kong 'er stayed behind and said to Company Commander Yang,""Captain, I have another request.”
"Go ahead."
"I request that we bring the shopkeeper of Immortals Gathering Restaurant along.”
Company Commander Yang widened his eyes and asked,""Why are you bringing him along?"
"The bandits of the Wolf Fang Village still don't know that he has joined us. I want to disguise myself as a waiter of the Immortals Gathering Restaurant and infiltrate the bandits to find out their situation.”
"But he is a bandit. If he isn't sincere about joining the People's Liberation Army, then it will be very dangerous for you to enter the bandits 'nest!”
"I think he's sincerely repenting. When he helped us search for Ping 'er and Shen Yidao in the ruins, he did well and wanted to atone for his sins.”
"Alright, you must be careful and pay close attention to him.”
"Yes."
The next morning, Long Kong 'er was dressed in green clothes and armed with a sharp sword. She disguised herself as a martial artist, while Mei Kunli and Ye Fei disguised themselves as waiters of the Immortals Gathering Restaurant. They set off with the shopkeeper towards the bridge. On the way, Long Kong 'er pulled out her sword and took a look. The sword's guard was carved with brass and was very exquisite. The blade was extremely sharp and could be broken with a blow. However, the pattern on the sword's body was a snake pattern. Long Kong 'er shook her hand.
"Captain, how does this sword compare to the Wind and Thunder Sword?" asked Mei Kunli.”
"Compared to the Wind Lightning Sword, this sword can be considered a sharp sword. However, the patterns on the sword were snake patterns, and it gave off a cold and gloomy aura. I don't like it."
Ye Fei grinned and said,"Captain, if you don't like it, give it to me."”
Although Mei Kunli was skilled in the spiked club, he liked this good sword. He said,""Ye Fei, give you a ghost. You also want the captain's sword?"
Long Kong 'er said," Sure. When I find the Wind and Thunder Sword, this sword will be yours."”
"Captain, is that true?" Ye Fei asked.”
"You are not joking."
"Thank you for your kindness, Captain."
Mei Kunli glanced at Ye Fei and cursed in his heart, You wish!
Long Kong 'er and the others were familiar with this mountain road. In about three hours, they arrived near the bridge and hid in the grass. Long Kong 'er took out her binoculars and observed the bridge.
The bridge was less than a meter wide, and there was an iron fence in the middle that was as tall as a person. On the other side of the bridge, there were four sentries patrolling. On both sides of the bridge were steep cliffs, and under the bridge was a rolling torrent more than ten feet high, with rocks growing in the torrent. " There's an iron fence in the middle of the bridge now," Long Kong 'er said." If the special forces attack from the bridge by force, they'll just be throwing their lives away.”As he spoke, he passed the binoculars to Mei Kunli.
Mei Kunli looked through the binoculars and said angrily,""These bandits are stupid. The bridge is narrow, but now they set up an iron fence. Even if ten thousand soldiers attack, they will die in vain.”
Ye Fei took the binoculars and exclaimed,""Oh my god, it's really a barrier that can't be opened by 10,000 people.”
Long Kong 'er pushed Ye Fei and criticized,""Keep your voice down. Do you want the bandits to hear you?"
"Captain, I didn't do it on purpose," Ye Fei said with a drooling face.”
Long Kong 'er said," The battle at the bridge this time is much more dangerous than the last time. We can't attack by force. We can only use our wits." Shopkeeper, does Tie Tuo know you?"
The shopkeeper said," Yes, I do. Tie Tuo has been to the Immortals Gathering Restaurant before. Some bandits also know me."”
Long Kong 'er thought that Tie Tuo was the second in charge of the Wolf Fang Village. As long as Tie Tuo knew the shopkeeper, the bandits would not suspect their identities. She smiled and said,"That's good. Let's go to the bridge."
Long Kong 'er and the others stood up from the bushes and walked along the mountain path towards the bridge. When they were about to reach the bridge, they suddenly heard the sentinel on the other side shout,"Who are you? Stop!"
"We're on the same side," the shopkeeper shouted."I'm Shopkeeper Wang of Immortals Gathering Restaurant.”
Four sentries ran nervously to the bridgehead. When they saw four strangers, they pointed their rifles at them warily.
The shopkeeper nodded and bowed." Brother, I'm Shopkeeper Wang of Immortals Gathering Restaurant. I want to see Lord Panther."”
"Lord Panther has gone down the mountain," the leading sentry said sternly. You guys can leave."
"Brother, when will Lord Panther come back?”
The leading sentry impatiently urged,""I don't know. Hurry up and leave."
"Then let's meet Tie Tuo," Long Kong 'er whispered to the shopkeeper.”
The shopkeeper asked again,"Brother, I'm also your second in charge, so I'll see you."”
"I'm not someone you can meet whenever you want.”
"Brother, we have an urgent matter to report. If we delay the important matter, you won't be able to bear the responsibility if Chief Tie blames you.”As the shopkeeper spoke, he took out two silver coins and threw them through the iron bars."This is just a small gift. I'll treat you to some wine.”
The leading sentry reached out and caught the two silver coins. He took a look and smiled."Then you guys wait here. I'll go and report.”
Elder Tie was in a large meeting room, half-reclining on a chair with his eyes closed. He suddenly heard someone come to report and was startled."What is it?"
"Someone is here. He claims to be Manager Wang of Immortals Gathering Tower and says that he has something important to see Master Tie.”
Chief Tie knew that this Immortal Gathering Tower was the destination of the Wolf Fang Village. He had been to the Immortal Gathering Tower a few times and was familiar with Shopkeeper Wang. Knowing that Shopkeeper Wang was one of his own, he asked again,"Is he alone?"
"A total of four people. There were two waiters and a swordsman.”
Chief Tie thought,'Why did Shopkeeper Wang bring three people here?' He has always been in contact with the leopard. How did he find me today? There must be a reason for this. In order to prevent them from launching a sneak attack, the order was: "Bring them in!"
"Yes."
The sentinel brought a dozen bandits to the bridgehead and relayed Elder Tie's order.""Chief Tie has ordered that the four of them be brought in!”
A sentinel opened the iron fence, and Long Kong 'er and the others entered one by one, their hands tied behind their backs.
"Is this how you treat your own people?" Mei Kunli asked.”
The leading sentry said,"Shut up! Otherwise, you'll have to cover your head."
Shopkeeper Wang knew that this was the rule of the Wolf Fang Village bandits to receive outsiders. Fortunately, he knew Lord Tie. If a stranger came, besides tying his hands behind his back, he would also cover his eyes. He immediately smiled and said," Alright, alright. Your life is honored."”
Along the way, Long Kong 'er kept remembering the route. The four of them were escorted into the meeting hall, with ten bandits standing on each side. Elder Tie sat on the chair and said with a dark face,""Who are you?"
"Elder Tie, I'm Manager Wang of Immortals Gathering Tower.”
Elder Tie's expression softened a little. He glanced at Shopkeeper Wang and deliberately said,""I can't remember."
"Elder Tie, you once came to the Immortals Gathering Restaurant to drink tea. I even took you to Chunhua Brothel to play."
In an instant, Elder Tie burst out laughing."Oh, I remember. I went to Chunhua Brothel. What's that girl's name?"
"Hong Yuer."
"Yes, yes, it's Hong Yuer. Hong Yu 'er was really dewy, fair, and tender. She was too seductive.”Elder Tie recalled Hong Yuer and drooled. After a moment, Elder Tie said with a green face,""It's a pity that she's such a strong woman. He didn't get to take advantage of her and instead got beaten up.”
Shopkeeper Wang said ingratiatingly,"Master Tie's martial arts are strong, and his Wolf Fang Hammer is the best in the world." He didn't expect that person to be so bold as to attack Chief Tie.”
Elder Tie saw Shopkeeper Wang laugh and thought he was teasing him. His face suddenly darkened."Are you laughing at me?"
Shopkeeper Wang hurriedly explained," Lord Tie, how could a small shopkeeper like me dare to laugh at you? Even if I had ten guts, I wouldn't dare."”
Elder Tie was afraid that everyone would laugh at him, so he said,"That day, I was ambushed by that person because I was drunk. If I meet this person again, I will definitely kill him. Alright, let's not talk about the past. Why are you looking for me?”
"Elder Tie, Immortals Gathering Tower has been taken over by the People's Liberation Army, so we can only go up the mountain to seek refuge.”
When Elder Tie heard this, he cried out in shock and asked,"Tell me quickly how the Immortals Gathering Restaurant was destroyed.”
