Chapter 223: Mysterious Tunnel
Before, I had an empty plan.
Open the door to welcome the arrival of the robbers, that is to scare them. But now it doesn't work.
I have killed the gang of people who came to tempt me, and now the road to reconciliation has been cut off.
So they will definitely want to attack and catch me with all their might.
I have a couple of guns in my hand, though. But the cabin is just too big. If the gang attacks from several directions, I won't be able to hold it at all. It will also affect Wu Xiuwen and Zheng Shuang.
"We've got to block the windows and doors!" I said to both of them.
Just hold on for a few days. When the rescue ship arrives, the gangsters will naturally retreat, so that we still have a chance.
They both knew that I was determined to fight the gangsters to the end.
So they helped me remove all the bed boards and close all the windows and doors. There are only a few gaps left for shooting and observation.
Of course, I don't think that's enough to stop the gangsters.
They have heavy weapons.
It's easy to blast a gap with equipment like a machine gun bazooka and rush in.
So I decided to dig a trench tunnel in the wooden house before the gang could do it. So that we will not be easily defeated.
Fortunately, there is a floor underneath the wooden house.
You can pry it up with a pry tool.
My right arm has not yet recovered, so most of these physical tasks depend on two women, Wu Xiuwen and Zheng Shuang.
They also know that I am preparing for everyone's lives, so they spare no effort.
My plan was to put the excavated soil in wooden boxes and bags. Pile in the corner of the wall reinforcement.
Then dig a tunnel inside the house, covered with floor and dirt, when attacked by gangsters. We can hide in the tunnels and dodge the attack first. And then hit them back by surprise.
Of course, this has something to do with the fact that I have been a soldier and understand tactics.
All day, the three of us sweated and dug the ground with tools until the evening. Finally we built a similar fortification in the bedroom where we lived and the adjacent bedroom.
Although we were so tired that we couldn't even straighten our waists. But I know. We have to dig a trench in the dumb room too. This will connect all the huts, and wherever the bandits come in, I can reach them through the ditch and attack them by surprise.
I was amazed to find when I used a crowbar to pry open the floor in the mute room. Under the dumb bed, there are two floors that are very loose. It seems to have been passive recently.
"Strange!" I took the two floors out of the way, and saw that there was loose soil underneath them, so I poked them tentatively with a crowbar.
I didn't expect a hollow sound to pop inside.
"There seems to be a hole in the ground down here!" Wu Xiuwen and Zheng Shuang also came over curiously.
Peeling aside a palm-thick layer of floating soil, there was a layer of wood underneath.
As I tried to pry the planks up, a salty, cold air came out of the cracks.
"What smell?" I thought something was rotten inside, and I covered my nose and looked down.
But it's pitch black inside, and you can't see the bottom at all.
"Where does it lead down here?" Wu Xiuwen looked at me in surprise when he saw that there was a hole in the ground and air circulation.
I'm also very excited.
But at the same time, I feel doubtful.
It is said that the three holes of the cunning rabbit, these gangsters are insidious and cunning, they have built a wooden house in the middle of the island, and they will definitely leave a way out. Prevent being surrounded by opponents or the police while sleeping.
But if this tunnel is dug by the gangsters, will they come in and attack us along the tunnel?
