Chapter Thirty: Attacking the Li Family's Mansion
The content of page 1 is as follows:
When Huoyao led the special warfare squad to Li's mansion, it was already noon. They are now hiding in the bushes, observing the situation of Li's mansion.
In front of the main gate of Li's mansion, there was a large empty space. On both sides of the empty space were fruit trees planted in full. The villagers captured by Li Youcai were all tied up with their hands and hung on the fruit trees. There were six or seven of Li Youcai's guards patrolling back and forth in the empty space, watching the villagers who had been hanged. At the gate, there were two men chatting idly like foremen. Looking from the gate, one could see that some of Li Quan's fake soldiers occasionally passed by the door with guns.
Gunpowder and others couldn't help but take a cold breath, there were already more than ten or twenty enemies in the front yard and at the gate. If you add the enemies in the backyard, main house, warehouse and other places, it's not an exaggeration to say that there are fifty or sixty people. Everyone couldn't help but secretly scold Wang San for being dishonest.
Actually, they knew about the gunpowder there, and it's not King Three's fault. Before the guerrilla team departed, Li Quan had already sent a few fake soldiers to keep an eye on them. After discovering that the guerrilla team was divided into two teams, Li Quan was worried that his ambush would be discovered by the guerrilla team, so he withdrew the fake soldiers who were keeping watch. He was even more worried that there would be a team of people attacking Li Jia's mansion, so he adjusted some fake soldiers back to Li Youcai's side.
In order to get a better understanding of the enemy's troop deployment, Huo Yao climbed up a dense tree and observed Li's mansion again. After returning to the special warfare team, he drew another rough map of Li's mansion and explained the battle plan in detail to everyone. At this time, several servants from Li's mansion carried several bowls of rice and walked to the front yard, shouting at the guards: "Dinner is ready, brothers come and eat!"
Two of the patrolling house servants remained to guard the captured villagers, while the others swarmed into the front yard, scrambling for the fragrant food. The rest of the Li family's courtyard was also filled with the sounds of noise and shouting. It seemed that the enemies in the courtyard were now enjoying their lunch.
With this good opportunity, how could gunpowder be let off. He nodded to the special warfare group, and everyone began to take action separately.
At the entrance of Li Youcai's warehouse, more than a dozen of his men gathered. They put their guns aside and sat in a circle eating lunch while engaged in lively discussions.
The two men quietly flipped over the courtyard wall and hid their figures as they approached the house servants guarding the yard.
"Rat-a-tat..." The machine gun fire suddenly rang out. The house guards who were eating lunch at the warehouse entrance fell to the ground in a pool of blood under the sudden sweep of the two brothers' machine guns. The two brothers quickly ran to the warehouse entrance, kicked open the large door with one foot, and carried out several grain sacks from inside the warehouse. They made a simple bunker at the entrance and lay down on the ground, placing the machine gun on top of the bunker, waiting for the enemy's arrival.
Li Youcai was having dinner and drinks with several trusted followers and some puppet army leaders in the main hall of the mansion. The middle courtyard had several large tables filled with puppet soldiers and guards. Suddenly, everyone heard the sound of machine guns. Li Youcai hastily walked to the door and asked his subordinates: "What's going on? Where are they shooting?" At this time, a guard who had narrowly escaped ran over from afar and shouted to Li Youcai: "Old master, it's not good! The guerrilla troops have killed our brothers guarding the warehouse and occupied it!"
Li Youcai hastily asked: "How many guerrilla teams have arrived?"
"Two." The housekeeper replied.
With a "slap", Li Youcai slapped a palm on the face of his family servant. In a fit of rage, he cursed: "You are all a bunch of useless trash."
At the time when Li Youcai was furious, one of his trusted men stepped forward and shouted: "Old Master, let me deal with those two bastards. I'll make them know that our Li family's mansion is not to be trifled with."
Li Youcai saw his trusted aide's loyal and righteous appearance, which slightly extinguished the anger in his heart. He nodded slightly to agree to his aide's request. The man led several subordinates towards the warehouse direction and ran past.
Gunpowder sneaked to the outside of the wall of the front yard and threw two hand grenades at the enemy who were gathering together for dinner. Swallow and Zuo Caiyun simultaneously shot and killed the two enemies guarding the villagers. When the enemy in the front yard was screaming, Gunpowder rushed to the empty space in front of the Li family's gate and cut off the ropes hanging the villagers with a knife. Some enemies discovered Gunpowder's actions and were about to shoot at him, but they were all shot dead by Swallow and Zuo Caiyun.
Li Youcai had just sat down at the dinner table when he heard another explosion and gunfire coming from the front yard. He slammed his hand on the table, angrily asking: "Who's going to go take a look at what's happening in the front yard?"
The content of page 2 is as follows:
Li Youcai's remaining confidants stood up together and took people to the front yard.
Seeing Li Youcai's anxious and fearful look, several puppet army leaders who were accompanying him smiled and comforted him: "Old Master can rest assured, this is just a small number of guerrilla troops making trouble. The main force of the guerrillas should have already fallen into Commander Li's ambush."
Li Youcai nodded slightly, feeling a bit more at ease. He thought to himself, "Even if the entire guerrilla force came, it would only be equivalent to my own military strength." Who knows what old almanac Li Youcai was using? He actually thought there were only a few dozen people in the guerrilla force.
At this time, another servant rushed in to report to Li Youcai. He heard him say hastily: "Old master, it's not good, the kitchen has been set on fire by someone."
"What?" Li Youcai exclaimed in shock. Destroying his property was more painful than killing him.
A somewhat clever fake soldier suddenly said to Li Youcai: "This is the guerrilla's tactic of luring the tiger away from the mountain, they just want to rescue the villagers on the empty land in front. We don't need to pay attention to anything else, let's all go to the front. We can definitely catch them off guard."
The other pseudo-soldiers also nodded in agreement.
Li Youcai, however, did not want to lose his own property. When the leader of the puppet army led his men to support the front yard, he told the family servant who came to report: "You go and call everyone back in the backyard to put out the fire in the kitchen."
Li Youcai didn't know that the men he had stationed in the backyard to keep watch had almost all been taken out by Wang Xiaohu. Now the yard was filled with the sound of gunfire everywhere. Li Youcai, who was anxious and flustered, found that the servant hadn't moved. In a rage, he smashed the teacup in his hand to the ground and bellowed at the servant: "Damn it, hurry up and go, what are you standing there for!"
That master Ding suddenly sneered and said: "If I don't kill you, this old guy, how can I leave?"
It turned out that this home servant Ding was actually Wang Xiaolong in disguise. He snuck into the Li family's mansion and set fire to the kitchen, then disguised himself as a servant and came here.
Li Youcai was startled by Wang Xiaolong's words and broke out in a cold sweat, only to realize that the person opposite him was indeed unfamiliar. In his panic, he hastily retreated, but failed to dodge the bullet heading for his heart.
Wang Xiaolong confirmed Li Youcai's death and ran out of the hall, shouting: "Come quickly, the old master has been killed by the guerrillas."
The news of Li Youcai's death soon reached the ears of the pseudo-army and the household guards. They didn't dare to fight with their opponents, and all retreated back to the main hall. Wang Xiaolong brothers and Daniu brothers took advantage of the chaos to reunite with Huoyao.
Upon seeing Li Youcai's corpse, those pseudo-soldiers and house guards quickly made a decision. Believing that Li Youcai was killed under their protection, they thought that Li Quan would definitely not let them off in the future. These people rushed into Li Youcai's bedroom without hesitation, snatching some valuables amidst the concubines' screams. They jumped over the wall and escaped with their lives.
Buddies, each chapter is absolutely freshly baked and steaming hot, written and sent out on the spot. Brothers and sisters, after you've savored it, don't forget to give me some motivation, okay?
