Chapter 122: Enemy-Occupied Territory
After another ten minutes, the two of them saw two plainclothes spies of the Holy Army who they had seen walking out of the small restaurant in the town.
At this time, both men were carrying rifles and walking towards a sloping path on the eastern slope of the town.
One of them was walking into the headphones, not knowing what he was talking about.
As they approached the row of houses where Zhang Qian and Li Jingjin had been hiding, they began to slow down, put their guns up, and covered each other to continue walking up the path.
At this time, Zhang Qian, who was wearing a headgear with holes in her eyes, also saw through the binoculars that on the roof of the hotel, another Holy Army spy was aiming at this side with a gun.
Soon, two Holy Army spies came to the outside of the three-story building where Li Jingjin had installed the rocket signal transmitter.
At this time, a silver unmanned reconnaissance plane with a length of about two meters and a wingspan of about one and a half meters had also arrived nearby, turning the two propellers on the wings upwards so that it could hover five or six meters above the roof of the house.
When a black round device on the belly of the drone turned around, the drone suddenly quickly pulled up its altitude and flew about a kilometer above the house to continue hovering.
Immediately afterward, the two Holy Army spies kicked open the door and descended the wooden staircase to a room on the third floor.
At this time, the room was filled with white smoke, and the choking smell of gunpowder smoke made the two of them can't help but cough violently.
The two looked up and saw that the roof was an inverted V-shaped tile on the top of the house, and a half-meter-wide opening had been opened on the back side of the house.
There was a simple wooden rocket launcher on the wooden floor of the house, and the planks near the launcher were blackened by the flames.
The room was open to the window at the back of the room, and two spies went to the window to take a closer look, and found fresh footprints on the dusty windowsill.
So one of the spies said a few words into the headphones.
After receiving the command, the drone flew to a distance of 500 meters above the woodland behind the house, and then slowly flew northeast.
When the drone disappeared from view, and the two Holy Army spies left the three-story building and retreated along the path to the hotel, Zhang Qian pulled down her hood and said softly, "They really fell for it." ”
Previously, after Li Jingjin placed the rocket launcher, he deliberately climbed from the window of the room to a large pine tree behind the house, tied a filament to a small branch on the big tree, and after coming to the ground, he walked five kilometers northeast along an overgrown sheep intestine path, and deliberately left footprints, and at the same time tied filaments to a weed on the road at intervals.
These filaments are connected to a total filament, which is the second and sixth filaments that Li Jingjin pulled back just now.
And the footprints he left when he walked back along the abandoned farmland behind the town and when he laid out the "Ecstasy Array" were all disposed of one by one, leaving no other traces.
When Li Jingjin pulled the filament back, the branches and some weeds were torn off, and combined with footprints and other imprints, there were traces of someone jumping out of the window of the rocket launch and fleeing to the northeast.
Next, Zhang Qian and Li Jingjin had lunch and returned to their respective hammocks to start sleeping.
It wasn't until nightfall that the two began to pack their things, crawl back to the ground, and walked from the farmland behind the house to the main road outside the town, and marched north on foot.
The next day, during the day, the two spent the rest of the day in a small deserted village, and did not continue their journey until the evening.
At about ten o'clock that night, the two came to a small town east of Miryang.
After observing with a telescope for a while on the top of a mountain outside the town, Zhang Qian whispered to Li Jingjin: "It's strange that some houses in the town are lit. ”
Li Jingjin said: "Yes, it stands to reason that this is the only way for the Holy Army to go north, and it should be like some villages and towns we passed through before, and the people have run out." ”
Zhang Qian said: "Let's sneak in and see what is going on. ”
Walking towards the farmland on the west side of the town, the two of them took advantage of the moonlight to see that the fields were obviously still being tended, the greens in the vegetable fields were growing well, some of the corn in the corn fields were almost ripe, some had been harvested, and the corn stalks were neatly stacked in the field.
Walking along the field path to the back of a row of houses, Zhang Qian observed for a while, pointed to a bungalow not far away and whispered to Li Jingjin: "This house is also lit, and it is far away from other houses with lights, so let's do it!" ”
Crossing a small ditch, the two men each reached the back door of the house with their guns and crouched under the window.
Zhang Qian slowly got up and looked in from the window, only to see that one corner of the curtain inside had not been closed, and there was an elderly man in his seventies and a little boy in his eight or nineteens sitting on the bed playing with the flying flag.
After she made a few gestures to Li Jingjin, Li Jingjin nodded, and took out a paper stick the size of a cigarette and a plastic Zippo lighter from her backpack.
Light the fire lightly, light the paper sticks, and stuff them into the house through the gap under the wooden door.
A few minutes later, Li Jingjin stood up, twisted his squatted thighs, tried to push the door and shook his head, then took a step back, "Bang dang!" He kicked the door open.
Zhang Qian, who was on one side, rolled into the house, searched everywhere with a gun, and waved his hand after confirming that the two people in the room had fainted.
Li Jingjin then flashed into the house and closed the door from the inside.
At this time, a male voice came from outside the main entrance of the room: "Dad, Xiaozhi? What's wrong with you guys? ”
Zhang Qian and Li Jingjin immediately flashed to the walls on both sides of the main entrance and stood up.
After a while, the front door of the room "Squeak! A thud was opened.
A middle-aged man stuck his head in, and as he was about to rush towards the two people lying in the room, Zhang Qian's cold muzzle pressed against his right temple.
The man immediately raised his hands, and Li Jingjin stepped forward and said softly: "Don't make a sound, or I'll kill you!" Then press it to the ground.
Zhang Qian stood behind Li Jingjin and took out a rope from the backpack on his back and handed it to the other party.
Li Jingjin tied up the man, and suddenly a sharp female voice sounded: "Ah! I'm fighting with you! ”
"Poof!"
Zhang Qian raised her hand to another middle-aged woman who rushed into the room with a brick in her hand, and shot her in the chest, causing her to immediately fall to the ground motionless, and a pool of blood gushed down her chest.
Seeing this, the middle-aged man was about to open his mouth to shout, but was kicked in the temple by Li Jingjin and immediately fainted.
After tying up the old man and the child who were still asleep, and at the same time plugging the mouths of the three kidnappers with towels, Zhang Qian carefully observed the foreheads of the three of them separately and said: "They are all branded with the letter J on their foreheads, and looking at this unhealed scar, it should not be long before they were branded." ”
