Devil's Army

Chapter 328 The Strange Peddler

The next morning, Leng Feng, Huilang and Wenlang went together to attend Engineer Li's fourth test firing of the 40 rocket launcher.

In order to ensure the accuracy of the data, Engineer Li arranged ten soldiers to conduct three rounds of test firing this time.

Following the signalman's order, ten soldiers fired the first round of ten rockets.

Then the surveying soldiers reported the targets: 15 cm, 12 cm, 22 cm, ... The best result was from Group 2, with an error of only 12 cm.

Then we fired four more rounds in a row. The best average error was in the second group, which was 11 cm. Then there was the next group, which had an average error of 15 cm.

Leng Feng announced on the spot: Six soldiers from Group 40 and Group 40 would serve as squad leaders and instructors for the rocket launcher firing squad. After the rocket launchers were mass-produced and distributed to the troops, they would also be assigned to six brigades to train new recruits.

Miao Nana's injuries were completely healed, and she insisted on continuing to lead the anti-Japanese drama troupe to perform outside. Leng Feng couldn't persuade her, so he had to ask her not to perform in the Japanese war zone. He also gave a death order to the guard platoon leader, saying that they could not perform in the Japanese-occupied areas at any time.

When Miao Nana led the anti-Japanese drama troupe to the tribe, she met a refugee mother and daughter at the gate of Tieling County. The mother's face was sallow and her clothes were tattered. The daughter's face was much better, but her clothes were also tattered, and when the wind blew, her spring light would occasionally leak out.

The daughter insisted on joining the army so that her mother could have a stable place to live, as military dependents can live in the barracks.

The daughter used to be a medical soldier in the Northeast Army, so she quickly passed the initial conscription examination and was admitted to Tieling County Hospital. The mother was also admitted to Tieling County Hospital.

The mother praised her daughter for her filial piety to everyone she met, saying that even with half of her body buried, she could still enjoy her old age.

Because my daughter had the technical foundation, she quickly got the hang of it and was very hardworking. Whenever there was a mission to go to a tribe or other brigade, she would rush to go. She also got along well with other doctors and nurses in the hospital.

Because she is older than other nurses, everyone affectionately calls her Sister Juan.

A tireless peddler also came to Tieling County, carrying a basket of goods from one street to another in Tieling County every day.

He also had a strange habit of selling goods in fortifications and military camps. Because his basket contained cigarettes, the soldiers in the fortifications and military camps would buy cigarettes from him from time to time, saving the time of going out.

Some people also asked him why he always sold things in the barracks or fortifications. He explained: there are many soldiers there, so business is good.

The commander of the Fifth Brigade and the commander of the First Regiment had both noticed him, but apart from selling things, he did not look around or walk around.

The news reached Leng Feng and Hui Lang. Leng Feng found it interesting. Peddlers usually sold needles, thread and household items, but he sold cigarettes. He also kept running into the military camps.

Gray Wolf said to Leng Feng, "Give me a bottle of wine, and I'll help you get to the bottom of this. If something goes wrong, just don't put me in solitary confinement."

"Okay, if anything happens I'll be put in solitary confinement with you." Leng Feng agreed readily.

Gray Wolf then went to Tieling County with several guards.

The guards had accompanied Gray Wolf to Tieling County many times, but this time there seemed to be something wrong with the deputy commander.

After arriving in Tieling County, he went directly to the store, bought a bottle of wine, and then drank it alone.

After a few drinks, Gray Wolf staggered with the bottle in his hand and said to the guard, "Let's go patrol the streets."

A guard was afraid that something had happened to the deputy commander, so he hurried to Tieling Hospital to find Director Yuan and He Shiqi.

Yuan Wanting and He Shiqi were also puzzled. Although Gray Wolf seemed careless on the surface, he was very sensible and would not get drunk in the street like this.

"Could it be that He Guihua's incident irritated him?" Yuan Wanting asked He Shiqi.

"That shouldn't be the case. I've spent a few nights with him in the tribe, and he never showed any abnormal expression." He Shiqi shook her head and said.

Anyway, let's go check it out first. Yuan Wanting and He Shiqi followed the guards and found the gray wolf near the military camp on the street.

I saw the Gray Wolf walking on the street with a bottle of wine in one hand and taking gaits while drunk.

He doesn't look like a deputy commander at all, he just looks like a drunkard. Yuan Wanting shook her head and prepared to walk forward to pull Gray Wolf away.

He Shiqi also felt very distressed. She didn't know what had happened to provoke the deputy commander to become like this.

The peddler coming towards him came to the military camp to sell goods as usual.

The gray wolf stumbled forward and accidentally knocked over the peddler's two baskets.

The contents of the basket were scattered all over the floor.

Gray Wolf noticed that the depth of one basket was not proportional to the items that had been spilled out, and when the basket was knocked over, the peddler was clearly panicking and was hastily filling the basket with items.

"There's something wrong with this cargo basket," Gray Wolf thought immediately.

At this time, Yuan Wanting came up and shouted at the gray wolf: "What are you talking about? Come on, go back with us." After that, she reached out to pull the gray wolf back.

Gray Wolf took another sip of wine, retracted his right hand, dodged Yuan Wanting's hand and said, "I won't go back. I still have to patrol."

Yuan Wanting went forward again and tried to pull the Gray Wolf away, but the Gray Wolf grabbed the basket that the peddler was loading goods in, shook it vigorously and said, "I won't go back."

At this moment, he clearly felt that the basket was abnormally heavy. Just a few cigarettes and groceries should not be so heavy.

Ordinary people had already gathered around, and Yuan Wanting didn't want to see him make a fool of himself in the street, so she forcibly grabbed Gray Wolf's right hand and prepared to take him back to the hospital.

The gray wolf turned the basket upside down, and the things in the basket scattered all over the ground again.

The gray wolf was still shaking the basket vigorously, when an unexpected scene occurred.
