Chapter 226: Investigation

Wang Lin, the commander of the reconnaissance company, was not idle, took two guards, pretended to be a vendor, and began to investigate for two days by himself. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

After a day of investigation to no avail, Wang Lin directly found a Zhuangzi seven or eight miles away from the trading point and planned to spend the night.

However, as soon as Wang Lin walked into Zhuangzi, he found a situation.

Zhuangzi is not large, with only a few dozen households. However, in the small Zhuangzi, except for the elderly, children, and women, there is not even a young man.

"This is definitely not normal...... Wang Lin thought to himself.

Just when Wang Lin was about to find an old man to ask about the situation, the old man actually took the lead and stopped directly in front of Wang Lin. Then, he reminded with a kind face: "Three strong men, don't go any further, the front is blocked by Lao Maozi, as long as Lao Maozi sees it, he will be arrested and used as a coolie......"

"Could it be that all the young people in the village have been captured by Lao Maozi......" Wang Lin asked with a puzzled expression.

The old man did not hide it, and replied directly: "Yes, five days ago, a group of old Maozi suddenly came and arrested all the young people in the Zhuangzi. ”

"Five days ago...... Wang Lin's brows furrowed, as if he had thought of something?

He continued to ask the old man, "Did the old man say what he was doing with them?"

The old man shook his head and replied, "I didn't say it...... Lao Maozi only said that he would work for half a month, and after he was done, everyone could get fifteen catties of grain......"

"However, the old man guessed that they were just ahead. Otherwise, Lao Maozi would not have sealed all the roads in front of him five days ago. ”

Hearing this, Wang Lin had already obtained all the information he wanted.

After thanking the old man, he hurriedly left Zhuangzi with two guards.

Until he couldn't see Zhuangzi, Wang Lin flashed directly into a small forest on the side of the road.

Wang Lin, who had been walking for a day, had just sat down when a guard spoke: "Battalion commander, there must be a problem ahead, do you want me to investigate......

"There must be a problem...... Wang Lin affirmed.

"Maybe we're looking for something just in front of us...... Otherwise, Lao Maozi's blockade would not be so strict, and he would not even be allowed to leave the official road, and he would still arrest anyone when he saw it. ”

Affirmation, affirmation. Regarding the suggestion of his subordinates, Wang Lin still refused: "As for the investigation, it will be exempted." ”

"Now eat first, take a good rest, and replenish your strength. Wait until the early hours of the night. Let's go ahead and reconnoitre......"

The land of the Northeast, which was completely shrouded in night, did not make any sound except for the cold wind.

In this way, the three of Wang Lin braved the cold wind, under the cover of night, and approached the Lao Maozi blockade area step by step.

Soon. Lao Maozi set up a checkpoint on the official road and entered Wang Lin's field of vision.

After a short observation, Wang Lin immediately decided: "Lao Maozi has a platoon of more than 30 people, and we are not opponents. Let's work hard and go around the side. ”

It would have only taken five minutes to cross the Lao Maozi level.

Because of the detour and the fact that it was not easy to march at night, the three of them walked for more than an hour before returning to the official road.

After walking forward again for less than five hundred meters, another level stood in the way of the three of them.

Here, Lao Maozi put a whole company, and also set up a heavy machine gun on the official road.

The appearance of so many old hairy people. Although it means that Wang Lin has to continue to detour.

However, not only did Wang Lin not show any dissatisfaction, but a trace of excitement and heat flashed on his face.

In Wang Lin's opinion, the tighter Lao Maozi's defense and the more defensive troops he deployed, the more it proves that what Lao Maozi protected with heavy troops is likely to be something that the commander racked his brains to let the reconnaissance battalion find.

Set off at one o'clock in the morning in the evening, and it wasn't until four o'clock in the morning that Wang Lin and the three of them really escaped the Lao Maozi level.

Soon, it branched out from the official road. A dirt and gravel road that had obviously been repaired for less than a few days appeared in front of Wang Lin.

What shocked Wang Lin even more was that because this road had just been built, there were still a lot of wheel marks on the situation.

"There must be something wrong with this road...... Wang Lin decided to follow the dirt road that had just been repaired and investigate it carefully.

The three men had just walked less than five hundred meters forward. An unbelievable shock appeared in front of them.

Behind a mountain beam no more than ten meters high, thousands of young people are building something under the supervision of Lao Maozi, holding torches.

"There are so many people, what is Lao Maozi going to do......" The guard opened his mouth because of shock. Subconsciously exclaimed.

Wang Lin, who was holding the binoculars and carefully observing his every move below, was already solemn at this moment.

It didn't take five minutes before Wang Lin replied with a face full of incredulity: "Artillery position, Lao Maozi actually built an artillery position here, and it is also an artillery position needed for forty or fifty guns." ”

Speaking of this, Wang Lin seemed to think of something, and immediately asked the guards beside him.

"Is that direction our trading point with Lao Maozi?"

After looking at the direction of Wang Lin's finger, the guard immediately affirmed: "Yes, battalion commander......"

"That's right......" Wang Lin replied with a firm face.

Then, he explained to the two guards: "The direction just now is the direction of Lao Maozi's artillery position. When the time comes, all the artillery on the artillery positions will be directed at the trading point......"

"If my guess is correct, as soon as the transaction is over, Lao Maozi will use the cannons here to carry out artillery attacks on the trading troops sent by our Liaodong Army and destroy our trading troops......"

At this time, Wang Lin's solemn facial expression became pale as soon as he brushed it.

Facing the two guards, he continued to analyze: "After the transaction is completed, the trading troops we sent will receive a large number of shells and bullets from Lao Maozi. At that time, as long as one cannonball is detonated by Lao Maozi, it will be an unprecedented devastating blow to the trading troops we sent. ”

"If we don't do it, the trading force we sent will be wiped out......"

"If the Commander is also in the middle of the trading forces, then the Commander will also ...... When the time comes, the entire Liaodong Army will be finished. ”

Listening to this, the faces of the two guards slowly turned pale.

After the two guards finally reacted, Wang Lin, who knew that the matter was important, immediately decided.

"Xiao Zhang, we will leave all the dry food to you, from now on, you will turn me into a nail, staring at the old Maozi on the other side. After a day, someone will come and cooperate with you......"

"Xiao Li, you go out immediately and find our people......"

"Just say my order, the reconnaissance battalion quickly assembled here, but, without my order, no one can move, and Lao Maozi can't find out about our existence......"

"I'll go back to Liaozhong right away, this matter is too big, I must let the commander know as soon as possible, and be prepared. Otherwise, in this transaction that is about to start, my Liaodong Army will definitely lose his wife and his troops under Lao Maozi's calculations. (To be continued.) )
