King of Secret Service

A gleam of appreciation flashed in Liang Xiao's eyes. In terms of strategic vision and thoughtfulness, Qi Ming surpassed his old subordinates.

"Adjutant Li will be our guide."

All the officers immediately understood, no wonder Liang Xiao introduced Adjutant Li to them as soon as he came in. .

"Pass down the order, let the soldiers get enough energy and send troops in the early morning." Liang Xiao ordered.

"Yes."

Sun Bing and others got up and took orders.

One o'clock in the morning.

More than 20 private boats sailed from Repulse Bay, aiming at the Taihu gang's lair.

The lake was filled with fog, and the lake water was gloomy and cold. The head of the ship had a mortar mounted on the bow, followed by heavily armed soldiers, all of which were equipped with German weapons.

Li Huan took the helm himself and groped forward.

He has a good memory, and he can calculate the approximate position by relying on the route and distance.

The Taihu Gang has been in the upper and lower reaches of the Yangtze River for many years, relying on the complex waters of Taihu Lake.

More than 500 soldiers of the Special War Battalion took more than 20 civilian ships, under the cover of night, quietly sailed to the gangster's lair in Taihu Lake.

more than an hour later.

Standing on the bow of the boat, Li Huan saw a gleam of flames. If he guessed correctly, one kilometer further ahead would be the Taihu Gang's lair.

He ordered the soldiers to row the boat across quickly.

Then quietly docked.

With the help of the faint firelight, he saw the patrolling water bandits of the Taihu Gang.

He ordered the soldiers to quietly move the mortar to the shore and quickly assemble it.

"fire."

Li Huan ordered to fire.

dong dong.

Two shells were fired and landed 200 meters away.

I saw two groups of flames shooting up into the sky, and then passed away in a flash, like thunder roaring.

Several Taihu gang water bandits were hit by shells, and their bodies were blown to pieces.

"Enemy attack."

"Enemy attack."

"Hurry up and report to the big master, the security team raided the cottage, and there are artillery."

The patrolling water bandits of the Taihu Lake Gang fled in all directions.

Da da da.

Under the cover of artillery fire, the soldiers in the front row of the special warfare battalion charged forward roaringly.

The follow-up troops docked and docked one after another, and a large number of soldiers rushed ashore.

The special warfare battalion used three mortars to open the way, and light and heavy machine guns fired together, and the water bandits who beat them ran around with their heads in their arms.

The gangsters from the Taihu Lake fought a battle with the security team yesterday. Many gangsters were still in their sleep. When they heard the sound of machine guns and shells, they hurriedly put on their clothes and rushed out with guns.

The Taihu Gang Mountain Gate gradually gathered more than 200 water bandits.

These water bandits used the mountain gate as a cover, hiding inside and not coming out.

Soldiers of the Special Operations Battalion attacked and stopped 300 meters from the mountain gate.

Sun Bing, the commander of the first company, personally deployed, adjusted the direction of the mortar, aimed at the gate of the bandits, and blasted them hard.

More than a dozen shells were fired in a row.

The mountain gate of the Taihu Gang was blasted into a pile of waste wood, filled with smoke and flames.

"Light and heavy machine guns fire."

"Throw a grenade."

Sun Bing commanded calmly.

When his face turned into a sea of ​​flames, he shouted loudly: "Brothers, charge up."

All the officers and soldiers of the special warfare company rushed up together.

The water bandits guarding the mountain gate suffered heavy casualties, and the remaining dozens of water bandits ran away in fright when they saw the powerful firepower of the government army.

After taking down the Water Bandits Mountain Gate, the Special Warfare Company divided the troops into two groups, one advancing from the east of the stockade, the other going around the west, and encircling the Taihu Water Bandits from behind.

The large troops behind attacked from the front and advanced rapidly with powerful combat effectiveness.

The water bandits have low combat quality and disordered military discipline, and they will collapse at the touch of a special warfare battalion.

Soldiers captured prisoners all over the mountains and plains, and after a while, the Second Company of Special Warfare attacked Juyi Hall, the lair of the Taihu Gang.

Outside the Juyi Hall, about 100 water bandits piled up two simple defensive positions, with a light machine gun on each side of the position.

"You son of a bitch, dare to attack the cottage, brothers, give me a hard hit."

A bald man with two guns stood outside the Juyi Hall and shouted.

"Brother, they are not a security regiment, but a regular army. Look at the steel helmets on their heads and the 217 rubber shoes on their feet. They are not the uniform of a security regiment. Look at the guys in their hands. They are all German weapons. Equipment, let's go head-to-head with them, we are definitely not opponents." The second leader said with lingering fear.

The bald man scolded angrily: "These sons of a bitch, taking advantage of our fight with the security team, they want to swallow us up. Even if I die, I won't let them take a step past the Juyi Hall."

"Brother, we only have this few brothers left, there is no chance of winning if we fight hard, why don't we retreat to the back mountain first?" Er Dangjia said.

The bald man shouted coldly: "Second brother, the Juyi Hall is the symbol of our Taihu Gang. If we lose the Juyi Hall, how will we gain a foothold in the world in the future?"

"Brother, it's not a question of whether to stand or not, but a question of life and death. With our more than 100 brothers, we are no match for the government army at all. We should retreat to the back mountain in time." The second leader said earnestly.

"If you want to retreat, you will retreat, I will fight with these bastards." The bald man would rather die than retreat.

"Brother, do you want that batch of things to fall into the hands of others?" the second master said.

The bald man was slightly taken aback, those things were bought by their brothers desperately, and they must not fall into the hands of others.

"Second brother, take the brothers to leave." The bald man gritted his teeth and looked at the Juyi hall reluctantly.

The Erdang family smiled and hurriedly led the brothers back to the back mountain. .

Chapter 93

boom.

The Special Operations Battalion launched an attack on the Juyi Hall, and a row of shells hit the Juyi Hall.

Under the cover of artillery shells, the soldiers of the Special Operations Battalion easily occupied the Juyi Hall.

"Bingzuo, there are more than a hundred water bandits running to the back of the mountain." A platoon leader reported.

"Erlian catch up and resolutely wipe out this group of water bandits." Liang Xiao naturally knew that the leader of the Taihu Gang had escaped, and since he was a bandit suppressor, he should completely wipe out this group of water bandits.

"Continuously search and arrest the entire village, and shoot and kill any water bandits who resist stubbornly." Liang Xiao ordered.

"Yes." Sun Bing left with a company of officers and soldiers.

"Sanlian seals off the cottage, no one is allowed to go out of the lake, and those who violate it will be killed without mercy." Liang Xiao ordered.

At this moment, the special warfare battalion has taken control of the stockade of the Taihu Gang.

He took out the map drawn by Xiang Yingxin from his pocket, and searched in the direction marked by the arrow.

He only brought Li Huan, the adjutant, Zhou Shiji, the battalion staff officer, and the battalion guard platoon with him.

The arrow points to the back hill.

He led people into the back mountain, looking for the direction pointed by the arrow.

Came to a hut.

Liang Xiao took the Czech light machine gun from the soldiers in the guard platoon, and fired at the gate of the hut.

Bullets shot out like dense raindrops.

I heard two screams from inside the hut.

After the gunfire stopped, the guard platoon soldiers rushed forward, kicked open the door of the hut and walked in.

There were two corpses of water bandits lying on the ground, they were shot to death by Liang Xiao just now.

"Report to the camp, except for two water bandits, there is nothing inside." The guard platoon leader reported.

How can this be?

Liang Xiao raised his eyebrows, and went into the hut to check it himself. According to Xiang Yingxin's map instructions, the batch of gold was in this hut, how could it not be there.

As the guard platoon leader said, there was nothing in the hut except two corpses, two old sleeves, and a square table.

"Warning outside, Staff Zhou and Lieutenant Li stay behind." Liang Xiao dispatched the guard platoon soldiers.

"Yingzuo, there's nothing here, could it be a mistake?" Zhou Shiji said dumbfounded.

"Look carefully."

Liang Xiao said in a deep voice.

If the gold cannot be found, there are only two possibilities. One is that Xiang Yingxin's information is wrong, and the other is that the Taihu water bandits have transferred the gold to other places.

"Station Master, there is something strange under this table." Li Huan found that the four feet of the table were all supported by firewood, as if they were deliberately covering up something.

He moved the table away, and saw four gaps in the ground. He pried along the gaps with a dagger, and the soil became loose, and a large wooden board was pried up.

He lifted the big board, and saw a big hole underneath.

"Station Master, I'll go down and have a look." Li Huan dodged and jumped into the big hole.

The hole is not deep, only about three or four meters high, and there is a cellar underneath.

On both sides of the cellar, there are eight large boxes.

He opened one of the boxes, and a golden light came out.

Rows of dazzling gold.

Li Huan's heart jumped, it was the first time he saw so much gold in his life.

After the shock.

He immediately shouted to the top: "Station Master, come down and have a look."

Hearing Li Huan's shout, Liang Xiao was about to jump down, but at this moment, Zhou Shiji tugged at the hem of his clothes, and shook his head slightly at him, meaning that he should not go down.

Liang Xiao waved his hand, indicating that it's okay.

First of all, he still trusted Li Huan.

First of all, he still trusted Li Huan.

Secondly, he has more confidence in his own skills. Even if Li Huan wants to harm him, he still has the power to protect himself.

He jumped into the cellar without hesitation.

Then, when he turned on the flashlight, Li Huan said in shock, "It's all gold."

He glanced at it, and saw that there were eight large boxes in total, one of which had already been opened.

"Open all the remaining boxes."

He and Li Huan worked together, until all the boxes were opened, a smile appeared on his stern face.

According to the calculation method of the Republic of China, 16 taels is equal to one catty, and 5 taels of gold is equal to more than 3000 catties. On average, each box contains about [-] catties of gold.

"You are down there. I'll go up and find a rope to get all the gold out." Liang Xiao left this sentence, tapped his feet lightly, and with the help of strength from both sides, he jumped several times in a row and jumped up from the cellar.

After he came up, he nodded slightly to Zhou Shiji and said, "Find a strong rope."

With just one movement, Zhou Shiji understood that there was really gold underneath, so he hurried out to find the rope.

It happened that there was a rope outside the hut.
