Outside the Black Cloud Stronghold.
The first battalion commander, Yu Yang, escorted Niu Er to observe the Black Cloud Stronghold on the mountain.
"Sir, the Black Cloud Stronghold is in front. There are a few hidden sentries outside the Black Cloud Stronghold.”
Niu Er said carefully.
Even without Niu Er's reminder, Yu Yang and the others could still see some clues even though it was night.
"Second Company, send a few people to take down some important positions. Try not to make too much noise!”
After saying that, he looked at Niu Er and said,"You said that you're holding a celebration party tonight?"”
"Yes, Chief has made a big deal. Today, the stockade is celebrating. Chief is treating everyone to a drink!”
Yu Yang nodded. If that was the case, most of the people in the village must have drunk a lot. This was indeed a good opportunity.
The Black Cloud Stronghold was located at the mountainside of the Great Black Mountain.
The geographical location was indeed extraordinary. There was only a winding path leading up the mountain, and there were cliffs on both sides.
As long as they deployed machine gun positions on the cliffs on both sides and set up firing points on the high points of the road, they only needed a few dozen people to seal off all the roads.
If they wanted to take down the Black Cloud Stronghold by force, they would have to pay a high price.
The soldiers of the Second Company quickly moved towards some hidden spots in the Black Cloud Stronghold in the darkness.
Although he didn't know the exact location of these hidden sentries, he could determine where it was easy to observe from the terrain. He just needed to touch these places.
On the big tree that Niu Erzhi pointed at, two bandits from the Black Cloud Stronghold sat on a small platform built on the branch of the tree.
"Sigh, you deserve to be unlucky. Today, the boss is holding a celebration party. There's enough wine and meat to eat!”
"Alright, it's our turn to keep watch. Besides, didn't Chief say that we won't miss out on wine and meat tomorrow afternoon?”
"Sigh, it's a pity that I can't drink with everyone.”
"What's the point of drinking? Let me tell you, the next time we go down the mountain to loot, I'll bring you to taste the taste of a woman!”
"How do you feel?"
"Let me put it this way…"
While the two of them were chatting, the two soldiers under the tree pointed upwards and nodded. One of them quickly climbed up like an agile monkey, silent and swift.
The tree was very sturdy. The two of them could not even hold it with their arms wide open. The two of them quickly climbed to the side of the tree branch and found two hidden sentries.
The soldier on the left slowly moved behind the two men and quickly got up. He covered one of the men's mouth with his hand and quickly stabbed the dagger into the back of the bandit's heart with his right hand.
When the other bandit beside him realized that something was wrong, the soldier on the other side also attacked.
The two of them acted decisively without making too much noise, and the two hidden sentries were eliminated.
At the same time, the few hidden sentries outside the Black Cloud Stronghold were cleared almost at the same time.
"Battalion Commander, it's all settled. There are four hidden sentries in total, and all nine of them have been cleared.”
"Not bad, go up the mountain!"
After getting rid of the hidden sentries, a battalion commander led his troops up the mountain.
At this moment, in the Black Cloud Stronghold, although the chief had already left.
However, the banquet did not end, and most of the bandits were still practicing boxing and drinking.
There were many drunk bandits lying on the empty ground in the stockade.
There were also a few bandits who were wrestling in the open space.
There were also people who cheered from time to time.
No one realized that danger had already descended.
Outside the Black Cloud Stronghold.
Yu Yang looked at the wooden gate.
A few bandits who were standing guard had their backs to the mountain road. They were watching the people wrestling in the empty space of the stockade.
"Go!"
Following Yu Yang's order, more than 20 soldiers quickly rushed from the mountain road to the position below the wooden wall of the stockade. Then, the group of people quickly climbed up the stockade wall.
A few bandits who were standing guard were killed before they could react.
Then, he opened the gate of the village and led his troops into the village.
Only then did the bandits in the village react. They could not help but panic when they saw the soldiers entering.
"Not good, the soldiers are coming in.”
"Brothers, grab your weapons!"
"Run!"
The village was in chaos. Xie Baoqing, who was waiting for good news from his second brother, heard the commotion and quickly pulled out his gun to open the door.
He saw his panicked subordinates and soldiers who were like wolves and tigers.
"Run!"
This was Xie Baoqing's only thought. The soldiers had rushed into the stronghold. No matter who they were, Xie Baoqing knew very well what kind of people his subordinates were. They could ambush and bully the civilians, but if they really fought the troops head-on, they had no chance of winning.
Xie Baoqing quickly ran towards the back of the mountain. He left a path of retreat for himself.
However, at this moment, a cry of surprise rang out."Sir, it's him. He's the Chief's Xie Baoqing!”
Xie Baoqing looked over with an ashen face. He saw one of his bandits, who seemed to be called Niu something, pointing at something.
Xie Baoqing was so angry that he wanted to pull out his gun and shoot.
However, before he could raise his gun, he heard a gunshot. He felt a pain in his arm and fell to the ground.
