Chapter Seventy-Four: Heading for the Base
Hao Hongliang handed over many things behind the scenes, such as controlling Tianyun Town and arresting people, to Zhang Zhonghe, the deputy head of the SEAL Mercenary Group, and Yang Shuxi, Sun Jinqiang's master. Then he took Mu Gang and Sun Jinqiang to set off at night.
Climb mountains, cross rivers, drill ravines. Under the leadership of Liu Ming, Hao Hongliang and others took four hours to stop.
By this time it was dawn. As far as the eye can see, there is a high cliff in front of you, next to it is a rushing and roaring river, except for the ravine behind you, there is no way forward.
"Sir, it's here. It's in that cave. ”
Liu Ming pointed to the top of the rock wall halfway up the mountain and said to Hao Hongliang.
Hao Hongliang and Mu Gang looked at Liu Ming's fingers. There was a very hidden hole in it, about 500 meters above the ground. Without Liu Ming's guidance, outsiders wouldn't be able to see it at all.
"Go through the hole there, and you'll be the base. Only through the base can you reach the base camp in the back mountain, and the cave is guarded all year round. Liu Ming continued to say to Hao Hongliang.
"It's so steep, how do you climb it?"
Mu Gang looked up at the steep rock wall and asked. More than 800 meters, it is steep and smooth, even if he is already the top master of the mercenary group, he still finds it difficult to climb up, not to mention that there are people guarding it.
"Report to the chief, as soon as we send out the code of our White Cloud Gang, the people in the cave will lower the rope ladder and let us climb up. Liu Ming replied honestly.
"Don't play tricks, you know the consequences. ”
Mu Gang's vigilance is very high. He immediately took out the Meteor brand pistol and pressed against Liu Ming's lower back. Don't let him make any movements, so as not to alarm the people in the cave.
"How many people are guarding the entrance to the cave?"
Hao Hongliang immediately grabbed Liu Ming's neck and asked in a low voice.
"Back to sir, there should be ten, five in the front and five in the back. They're all masters, and they all have guns in their hands. ”
Liu Ming was frightened again. He replied tremblingly.
"Say, what's the distance between the front and back?" Hao Hongliang continued.
"Back to the sir, the cave is very long, and there are many forks, the nearest one is about three or four miles. ”
Liu Ming's back was grabbed and his neck was pinched, and he trembled with fright, so he answered very happily, and he simply knew everything.
"Where is the specific location of the base camp?" Hao Hongliang then asked.
"Back to the sir, the base camp is at the entrance to the cave at the back. Liu Ming didn't dare to hide it, and replied honestly.
"Brother Mu, I'll go up first and control the five people at the entrance of the cave. You're all waiting here, and I'll soon put the rope ladder down for you. ”
With that, Hao Hongliang jumped up. He climbed up the smooth stone wall, as agile and swift as a gecko, and still silent.
Hao Hongliang's speed was too fast! It only took a few ups and downs to get close to the entrance of the cave.
It's not just about self-confidence, it's about strength and experience!
On the night he was looking for his little sister in Dalin Mountain, he had climbed a cliff steeper than this. In terms of his own cultivation and skill, this height is simply a piece of cake and effortless.
Hao Hongliang is not yet conscious. He lay down at the entrance of the cave and released a trace of spiritual energy to probe the situation inside the hole.
I realized that there was only one person there, and he was still dozing. The other four were sleeping in small caves around the area.
He closed his eyes and thought for a moment. Suddenly dodged into the hole, and quietly pointed, hitting the man's faint hole.
The hapless guard, in a daze, fainted, and did not even make a sound.
Inside the cave is a spacious hall lit with torches. There are also a few small black holes around.
Hao Hongliang quietly moved his steps. Unnoticed, the gods sneak in, surveying the surrounding caves one by one. Anyone who goes in is a "finger of spiritual power", and the finger is not empty.
Pull everyone who was stunned by yourself to the center of the hall and count exactly five. Hao Hongliang clapped his hands and returned to the entrance of the cave and lowered the rope ladder.
Mu Gang and the others followed the rope ladder and quickly climbed up.
When Liu Ming saw the five masters lying on the ground, his legs were weak and he immediately collapsed to the ground. If it weren't for the fact that there was no stock in the stomach, it would definitely make the cave stink.
Mu Gang, Sun Jinqiang, and Liu Ming tied up the five masters lying on the ground and dragged them all to a cave. Then they sealed the mouth of the cave tightly, so that the wild beasts would not eat them.
Mu Gang pulled Liu Ming up. The group continued on their way with torches.
The cave in this base of the Baiyun Gang is really long. And there are wide and narrow, up and down, and potholes.
There are many hidden tunnels in the cave, and there are many forks in the tunnel. If it weren't for Liu Ming leading the way in front, not only would it be dangerous, but also a lot of unjust roads.
On the way, Mu Gang marked all the hidden passages of the mechanism. By the way, I visited several holes, some of which were stacked with food, some were stacked with daily necessities, and some were lined with guns and ammunition, and it was not an exaggeration to say that it was an arms warehouse.
Mu Gang unexpectedly discovered the latest foreign individual bazooka in a hole.
Picking up a bazooka, Mu Gang frowned. This was so unexpected that the danger index increased dramatically. He had serious doubts that there would be other heavy weapons, or chemical or biological weapons.
He stopped Hao Hongliang and expressed the doubts in his heart.
Hao Hongliang hurriedly probed out a trace of spiritual energy, controlled Liu Ming's brain, and interrogated again. Learn more about this base.
According to Liu Ming, this base was discovered by Liu Ming's ancestors. In the early years, as a nest of bandits, he escaped the encirclement and suppression of the army here. Most of the old-fashioned weapons and ammunition were smuggled from abroad, and he did not know whether there were any other heavy weapons, biological and chemical weapons.
The core of this base is at the exit of the cave. There is a very large space there, with a rock wall on the sky, a pond and a stream below, and hundreds of houses built, which is the base camp of the Baiyun Gang's Houshan base.
There are more than twenty top masters of the White Cloud Gang in the base camp, where they are cultivating. There are also several mothers-in-law of him and his father, and the exit is under the mountain is the border river.
Bounded by the river, on the other side is the neighboring mountain country. There is also a large base of the Baiyun Gang and a number of armed forces in the neighboring mountain country. Once you notice that something is wrong, it's easy and safe to get there.
Asking about the situation, Hao Hongliang had a plan in his heart. It is not possible to break through hard, and no matter how many people do it, they can only act at the opportunistic point and use the method of outwitting and attacking suddenly.
and Mu Gang, the two have the same views and coincide.
Just do it. Mu Gang and Sun Jinqiang were on alert, and Hao Hongliang fainted Liu Ming with a finger. The spiritual energy that had already penetrated his brain slowly changed into a net, enveloping his cranial nerves.
Hao Hongliang This is to save time and quickly control Liu Ming's brain. Let him be his puppet for the time being, so as to facilitate his next move. Because only in this way can it save time and effort, and it also saves Liu Ming from playing any tricks.
Less. Hao Hongliang woke Liu Ming up with a slap and tried to make him hit the rock wall by himself.
Liu Ming really bumped into it desperately. If it weren't for Mu Gang's quick grab, Liu Ming's head would definitely be hit and his head would be bleeding.
"It's a little silly to look at. ”
Hao Hongliang muttered in his mouth and shook his head a little dissatisfied.
"Time is of the essence, and that's the only way to go. Let's go. ”
Keep going. Mu Gang picked a sniring rifle with a scope and carried it on his back. Sun Jinqiang took a bazooka and carried it on his shoulder, and asked Liu Ming to lead the way with his torch head.
Hao Hongliang: They were moving fast. Soon I heard the sound of running water coming from ahead.
When I walked in, I saw a stream flowing out of another cave and down the hole.
"Liu Ming, how far is it ahead?" Hao Hongliang called Liu Ming and asked.
"Master, follow this stream, turn this hole and you will almost get there. ”
Liu Ming became Hao Hongliang's puppet and called Hao Hongliang his master. But the answer was very mechanical, still stupid.
"Brother Mu, you guys are waiting here. I'll go over and put the guards in first. With that, Hao Hongliang flashed along the side of the stream.
The reason why he dared to do this was because he was becoming more and more proficient in the use of his own spiritual energy. Plus his extraordinary strength, speed, hearing, eyesight, etc. Really fighting, he is not afraid of those guards at all now.
What's more, the other party is sleeping now, and putting them down is a piece of cake.
And so it was. The five guards were sleeping soundly in a side hole, and Hao Hongliang quietly pointed down a few fingers, and all the problems were solved.
Mu Gang brought Sun Jinqiang and Liu Ming over, dragged the fainted guards out of the hole one by one, threw them into an open space, and tied them all up. Then he searched the surroundings carefully with torches.
"Director Hao, the hole in front of you is too small. Water can flow through, people can't get through. There is no way forward. ”
Light shines in front of the cave. It seemed that he had arrived at the exit on this side, but the transparent hole was very small, and Mu Gang turned around and reported the situation to Hao Hongliang. Then he looked at Liu Ming and looked for answers.
Liu Ming stood there and didn't speak, he looked at Hao Hongliang stupidly.
Hao Hongliang shook his head with a wry smile and motioned for Liu Ming to answer Mu Gang's question.
"Master, the entrance to the base camp is not over there, here. ”
Liu Ming stretched out his hand and pointed to a potholed stone wall beside him, and said to Hao Hongliang.
Mu Gang stepped forward to take a closer look. The stone wall was no different from the surrounding stone walls, and he turned on the flashlight, and when he looked closely, he found a very irregular crack.
"Director Hao, this is a stone gate with a mechanism. ”
After that, he looked at Liu Ming again for answers.
Liu Ming still looked at Hao Hongliang stupidly and did not speak, nor did he answer Mu Gang's question.
Hao Hongliang frowned and motioned for Liu Ming to find the mechanism of the stone gate.
Only then did Liu Ming step forward and grope for the mechanism of the stone gate, and Mu Gang and Sun Jinqiang stepped forward to push the stone wall together.
With the sound of "rumbling ......", the stone door was pushed open.
The opening of the stone gate was bright. Facing it is a hand-carved stone staircase that goes straight up, and the light is transmitted from above.
"Who?"
A question was heard from above the stone steps.
"I, Liu Ming. ”
Liu Ming replied loudly at Hao Hongliang's signal.
