Faced with Chen Geng's question and the others looking at him, Ye Chen replied calmly.
"Brigadier General, before I answer this question, I would like to ask you a favor. I hope you can agree to it because this matter is closely related to my attack on Death Valley!”
"Tell us. As long as it doesn't violate the rules, we'll consider it.”
Chen Geng said in surprise.
Li Yunlong was also surprised. He did not know what Ye Chen was up to.
"The gains from this operation will belong to my new regiment. The headquarters cannot confiscate them because my new regiment will be welcoming the new recruits soon.”
"What? You attacked Death Valley to prepare for your recruitment?”
The chief of staff asked in surprise.
"That's right. The reason why I chose the more difficult Death Valley to fight is to pave the way for my next operation. It's also to prepare for the new recruits. After all, if someone doesn't have a gun, it's useless. I won't allow the new team to be a half-baked team!”
As soon as Ye Chen said this, the entire brigade fell silent.
Chen Geng did not expect Ye Chen's gaze to be so distant!
His plan for Death Valley was actually to pave the way for his next plan.
So, his plan for Death Valley was just to grab the grass and kill the rabbit?
"Since you planned Death Valley to pave the way for your recruitment, what is your real goal?”
Chief of Staff Li Jukui asked, staring at Ye Chen.
Ye Chen smiled when he saw this.
······
Not far from Death Valley, there was a black mountain called Black Cloud Mountain.
In the Black Cloud Mountain, there was a large stockade called the Black Cloud Stockade.
In the Black Cloud Stronghold, there was a group of bandits who killed and set fires. They did all kinds of evil and were good at both black and white.
The bandit boss of the Black Cloud Stronghold was called Xie Baoqing.
He had been gathering bandits here for several years.
In their ranks, there were bullies who did evil, bandits, executioners who killed people like flies, and so on.
It could be said to be heaven for the wicked!
With Xie Baoqing as the leader, these villains were known as the Eight Great Vajra and gathered in the forest.
He drank a large bowl of wine and ate a large piece of meat. He was so happy!
However, there were also innocent, homeless, and commoners who were forced by bandits and devils.
They had no choice but to join the Black Cloud Stronghold and help Xie Baoqing and the others!
Xie Baoqing was different from the bandits in other places.
They had fought against the Central Army, the Jinsui Army, the Eighth Route Army, and even killed the devils. They had taken advantage of both the black and white forces and relied on the natural barrier to cause trouble.
Due to many reasons, neither the Japanese nor the Fire Country's regular armies had the time to exterminate these bandits.
This caused the bandits of the Black Cloud Stronghold to be at large. Until now, nothing had happened.
"Big Brother, you don't know this. This time, when we attacked Jikou Village, we played two games. It was really exciting!”
"It's just a pity that the Ang Men were too strong. After they were done, they actually committed suicide!”
At this moment, in the main hall of the Black Cloud Stronghold.
There were eight people drinking and chatting.
A tall and thin Second Leader, nicknamed Mountain Leopard, took a bite of meat and laughed at Xie Baoqing, who was sitting on the chair at the head. He was wearing a mink fur coat and had a full beard.
"That's right. I don't know what's going on with Jikou Village. Why is it so fierce? Everyone who has been played by us has committed suicide.”
"However, big brother, we were lucky this time. Not only did we capture more than ten able-bodied men in Jikou Village, but we also robbed a escort on the way back!”
" Robbed darts?!"
"What's going on?"
Xie Baoqing raised his eyebrows and asked.
"On our way back, we encountered a group of people escorting weapons and ammunition. There were about thirty of them, but there were only two people in the entire group. They were all wearing 38 big covers, and the others were all machetes and cold weapons.”
"They didn't have any room to fight back at all. They were robbed by our brothers in a few moves. We can be said to have earned a small profit this time!”
"How many people have you captured? What did you snatch?"
Xie Baoqing asked as he drank.
"Reporting to Big Brother, we caught more than 30 people and robbed the three-car border area. The old barrel and rifling are all smoothed out and can no longer be used.”
"However, we can still use the three to four boxes of bullets and the thirty or so young men!”
Mountain Leopard said regretfully.
"Big Brother, these weapons are obviously from the Eighth Route Army. Are we really going to seize them? And those thirty or so experts, could they be from the Eighth Route Army? Can we provoke the Eighth Route Army to retaliate?”
"I heard that the Eighth Route Army is a vengeful person. Let's not stir up a hornet's nest and attract the Eighth Route Army's revenge.”
A bandit took a sip of wine and asked worriedly.
"It's fine. They're just a group of soldiers from the Eighth Route Army. Their weapons aren't as advanced as ours. It's still the same old method, coercion and bribery, forcing them to work for us!”
Xie Baoqing said expressionlessly.
From the beginning to the end, he didn't care about those weapons or those thirty people.
He, Xie Baoqing, had been in the Black Cloud Stockade for seven to eight years and had killed countless regular soldiers of the Fire Country. He had even killed the commander of the Central Army and no one had come to take revenge on him.
Moreover, even if he came, he was not afraid!
The person who could kill him, Xie Baoqing, had not been born yet.
"Leave this matter to Second Brother, Third Brother, and Fourth Brother. We must make those 30 strong men stay and work for us. At the very least, we have to make a few deals before we can set off!”
"Don't worry, big brother. We know what to do!”
"Alright, you've worked hard today. I'll toast you all. I hope you all will continue to work hard and contribute to the prosperity of my Black Cloud Stronghold!”
Xie Baoqing's expressionless face changed. He grinned and laughed.
"What are you talking about, big brother? We're brothers, there's no need to be polite!”
"Tonight, I won't go home until I'm drunk. Drink!"
"Cheers, haha…"
