Chapter 68 Relocation Plan

  "It's not that my heart is bitter, it's just that life is bitter!" Yan Beifeng said with a scowl as he struggled free from Luo Xiang's bear hug. "You little brat was out having the time of your life, while I'm stuck at home going crazy! Who else but me has to deal with this huge mess?!"

  "Alright, you've done a good job. I'll go and report your merits to the higher-ups. How about I get you a first-class merit?" Luo Xiang said casually, only to suddenly realize that the Special Warfare Brigade had already crossed over, so there was no place to report their merits anyway!

  Seemingly noticing the gloom on Luo Xiang's face, Yan Beifeng threw a punch at his shoulder without warning, "What are you practicing for? Just get drunk tonight and it'll be fine!"

  Luo Xiang pouted in discontent, "Hmph, who's afraid of whom? Which time wasn't it you who went under the table first?"

  The two people burst out laughing together!

  Luo Xiang's mood recovered, and Yan Beifeng took him to the mountain col, several advisors dispersed, each doing their own thing!

  Luo Xiang followed Yan Beifeng, walking and looking around, discovering that although it had only been a few days since they last met, the mountain valley had already undergone great changes. Many areas had been tidied up, military tents had been set up, and technicians and engineers from the military factory were busily rushing about in their white coats, coming and going in a flurry of activity!

  On the other side, dozens of heavy-duty trucks were neatly lined up under camouflage nets in front of a large forest, and even the ones that had caught fire initially had been repaired, with fresh paint jobs to boot!

  "Wow, I didn't expect that in just a few days, Old Yan, you've turned this place into a base!" Luo Xiang walked and looked around, discovering many surprising changes that he couldn't have imagined, and couldn't help but praise highly.

  A wild goose honked with laughter and proudly said, "If it's about leading the charge into battle, I'm not as good as you. But when it comes to logistics and ideological construction, even ten of you tied together aren't a match for me!"

  Luo Xiang heard this and nodded his head in agreement, "I admit it, I'm good at fighting, but when it comes to these things, just thinking about them gives me a headache!"

  Two people walked towards a military tent located in the deepest part of the mountain valley, chatting and laughing, which seemed to be the temporary headquarters.

  The tent was very simply furnished, with only a table holding military maps and some chairs, and in the corner of the tent were stacked empty ammunition boxes, on the simple bed made from crates was placed a sleeping bag.

  It seems that these few days, Yanbei wind has been spent here!

  Wild Goose pulled him to the map, pressed him into a chair, then poured out half a vat of clear water from an earthenware jug, and pushed the vat in front of Luo Xiao, "Drink up! This is mountain spring water from the mountains, it's incredibly refreshing, much better than any mineral water from our time!"

  "Really, I'm so thirsty!" Luo Xiang picked up the porcelain jug and drank it all in one gulp!

  He put down the porcelain vase, Luo Xiang sighed and said, "Ah, it's comfortable. These past few days have been exhausting for me too!"

  Wild geese are flying north, bringing with them a refreshing spirit. He pulled over a stool and sat down in front of Luo Xiao, urging him on, "Come on, tell me quickly!"

  Luo Xiang then gave him a detailed account of what had happened!

  Yan Bei Feng listened to Luo Xiang's account, his brow furrowing tighter and tighter as he heard more. When Luo Xiang finished speaking, Yan Bei Feng finally opened his mouth, "You've probably gotten yourself into quite a bit of trouble this time!"

  "Yeah, I didn't think it would cause so much trouble this time either, but at the time, there was no other choice!" Luo Xiang also admitted that he had indeed made a bit of a big deal out of it this time.

  Blasted the Japanese Kempeitai, stole confidential documents, and killed so many Japanese soldiers. I'm afraid that for a while, Fentian City will be on high alert, with strict checks everywhere!

  Moreover, the traces left behind this time are not few either. The Japanese army can also infer from the traces that these people should be in the mountains near Fengtian City, and it's likely that they will soon dispatch reconnaissance and search troops!

  Dahai Luo Xiang is not afraid of fighting, but now the special forces brigade's advanced equipment and ordnance factory's equipment and personnel can't afford to lose!

  "Now is not the time for self-blame," said Yan Bei Feng, "I think we should consider finding a place to settle down!"

  "Now it's already the autumnal equinox, and soon it will be the Autumnal Equinox Festival. It won't take long for the weather to turn cold, and when that happens, the soldiers will suffer if they still live in tents; secondly, the terrain of this mountain valley is not good, there are no advantageous positions, once we're surrounded by the enemy, it's hard to break out!"

  "And with the big commotion you've caused this time, the devils will soon send people out of the city to search, and by then it will be impossible to hide on this chessboard, so I suggest we should move!"

  Luo Xiang nodded and said, "I think so too. Have you found a suitable place, Old Wild Goose?"

  "Look at this!" said Yan Beifeng, walking up to the map and pointing with his hand. "Tiger's Roar Ridge, treacherous terrain, easy to defend but hard to attack. The only way up is this one path, everywhere else is cliffs, even we would have a bit of trouble climbing, and it's surrounded by mountains, a lawless area where bandits run amok, perfect for hiding!"

  Looking at Tiger Roar Ridge, Luo Xiang carefully examined the surrounding terrain again, and finally his gaze fell on Canglong Mountain about twenty or thirty miles away from Tiger Roar Ridge. His heart moved, "Isn't this the old nest of Black Dragon and Phoenix?"

  Indeed, Hu Xiao Ridge is only more than 20 miles away from Cang Long Mountain in a straight line, which is not far. But if you walk on the ground, it will be much farther!

  Yan Beifeng continued, "In Hu Xiaoling there is a bandit gang of about 200 people, led by a man named Xie Mujiang, who was indeed once a carpenter!"

  "Haha, this world is really interesting, a carpenter became a bandit!" Luo Xiang heard and was amused, he asked, "What's the reputation of the Tiger Ridge bandits in the local area?"

  "Not very good, it's said that Xie Mujiang is still okay, but he seems to be all talk and no action. The one who's really in charge of Hu Xiaoling is the second master Zhang Ermazi. This little devil has done a lot of bad things and the villagers around him have suffered a lot at his hands!" Yan Beifeng wouldn't be good at logistics, it's unknown where he got this intelligence from, it's detailed to such an extent.

  "Since that's the case, this is Zhang Ermao's unlucky year, and he's had enough!" Luo Xiang's large hand waved, heavily pressing down on the location of Hu Xiaoling, "It's this one!"

  "Alright, it's settled then, Hu Xiaoling!"

  Yanbei smiled with his eyes narrowed, and Luoxiang knew he had a good idea as soon as he saw him smile like that. So he laughed and nudged him, "Old Yan, come on, what's your clever plan?"

  "You won't believe it, I really thought of a way, it's like this and that, then like that..." Yan Beifeng leaned in close to Luo Xiang's ear, whispering softly, Luo Xiang listened and nodded repeatedly.

  He Hongyan finished speaking, and Luo Xiang couldn't help but slap the table and stand up, "Alright, let's do it as you said, hahaha!"
