Chapter 26: The confident bandit coalition 1

As a loud thunder exploded in the sky, drizzle of spring rain began to fall from the sky, nourishing this ancient land.

At this moment, the sky has become very dark, and the surrounding area will be completely dark in ten minutes or so.

The gate of Heiyun Village was rarely opened at this moment, and groups of bandits dressed in various clothes came out one after another.

This is the bandit coalition that gathered at Heiyun Village a few days ago. There are more than 1500 bandits in total, and they are the largest fighting force that can be gathered from some of the larger bandit groups nearby.

This time, under the leadership of Xie Baoqing, the leader of Heiyun Village, they planned to travel overnight and ambush in a hidden area outside Yexi Town before dawn.

Hide there for a whole day, wait for nightfall, and then take advantage of the dark and windy night to seize Yexi Town!

If there are any good things in Yexi Town, Xie Baoqing doesn't need to explain it in detail, everyone can check it out.

However, where there are good things, the puppet army will naturally send heavy troops to guard it, just like there is an entire regiment of puppet troops stationed in Yexi Town.

Under normal circumstances, although these bandits were not afraid of these puppet troops, they would not take the initiative to provoke heavily guarded towns.

But now it’s different. The leader of Heiyun Village solemnly assured that he had already arranged everything.

As long as these heroes from the mountains arrive at the city, someone will definitely come out of the city to meet them. At that time, everyone just needs to attack as soon as possible.

After occupying several important strongholds and high ground, no matter how strict the puppet troops' defenses were, they would never have thought that they had an accomplice from within.

Moreover, few people knew about the planned night attack on Yexi Town, and the puppet troops naturally didn't know about it even more.

In the dark and rainy night, these bandits marched along the rugged mountain road towards the designated location in Yexi Town.

If it were any other time, these bandits would definitely complain in such bad weather.

But today these people surprisingly did not complain, and all the bandits gritted their teeth and persevered.

This battle concerns the life and death of their stronghold, so they cannot help but take it seriously, unless they plan to move far away.

Secondly, Yexi Town was the logistics center of the puppet army, where there were large quantities of weapons, equipment, supplies and ammunition waiting for them to seize.

Boss Xie Baoqing patted his chest and assured everyone that there was absolutely no need to storm the city wall which was easy to defend but difficult to attack.

They have already made arrangements, so just follow them when the time comes. We are not telling them now to prevent leaks.

Once the matter is exposed, all previous arrangements will be wasted, so Xie Baoqing has never told anyone about this so-called big move.

However, some heads of other mountain villages knew about the arrangements, and they were all very motivated, as if Yexi Town was a ripe peach about to fall to the ground and was within their reach.

After a night of difficult march and at the cost of five lives, the group of bandits finally arrived at the agreed area.

All the bandits were already as tired as old dogs after a night of marching. After arriving, they hurriedly ate a meal and fell into a deep sleep, waiting for dark to launch a night attack on the logistics camp in Yexi Town.

The captain of the guard at the south gate of the city, Zhang Hu, the fourth in command of Heiyun Village, was both excited and nervous at the moment.

What is exciting is that if they can successfully open the city gate, let the boss and others into the city, and take over this place, they will no longer have to continue to be bandits and live a life of looting.

With those good things, they have enough to choose the days they want.

I was nervous because I was afraid that the matter would be exposed and I would be caught by these puppet soldiers and be cut into pieces.

Fortunately, no abnormal situation has occurred so far. Tonight, according to the established duty roster, the 2rd Company, 3nd Battalion, rd Regiment will be responsible for guarding the South Gate.

The unstable people in the company and some soldiers who were not their own people had all been arranged to guard the camp. Tonight, Zhang Hu would personally lead more than 20 trusted subordinates (including about people who came out of Heiyun Village) to guard the South Gate.

Just before dark, after the Third Company took over the defense of the South Gate, they saw a large number of soldiers lurking around the South Gate in the rear, which they could not see.

Of course, the other three doors continued to do their normal business, as if nothing unusual had happened.

These ambushing troops were all veteran prisoners of war who had entered the city in recent days and completed restorative training, as well as Wang Chun’s former subordinates.

As the sky gradually darkened, both Zhang Hu's third company stationed at the city gate and Xie Baoqing outside the city were nervous and excited.

To Zhang Hu, Xie Baoqing and others, time passed very slowly every minute and every second. This kind of torture was the most uncomfortable.

Zhang Hu kept walking back and forth at the city gate, and from time to time he went up to the city wall to see what was happening outside.

It was not until almost two hours after dark that he saw a waving torch not far from the city and he breathed a sigh of relief!

"Here they come! The boss and his men are here!" Zhang Hu whispered and shared the good news with several of his subordinates.

"Everyone, get ready! Li Da, you lead the others to watch the back. There must be no accidents when we open the city gate!"

After saying that, the guy named Li Da nodded, and took a few people down the city wall, and set up defenses behind a fortification made of sandbags not far from the gate.

They must ensure that no one comes to stop the boss and others from opening the city gates.

About a quarter of an hour later, the torch under the city was seen being shaken again.

Zhang Hu immediately picked up a torch from the fire on the top of the city wall and waved it desperately while standing on the city wall.

At this moment, in a woodland less than 200 meters outside the city, torches waving on the city wall were seen.

Xie Baoqing's mouth slowly curved into an arc, and he uttered two words softly: "Let's go!"

The bandits behind him had been waiting impatiently, their hearts were so excited that they were about to jump out of their chests, although they didn't know the specific situation.

But just now, after someone on his side waved the torch twice in a row, someone on the city wall not far away also waved a burning torch!

This goes without saying. Everyone knows that there are already people arranged by Mr. Xie at the city gate.

Seeing the people moving forward quickly and deliberately suppressing the sound of their footsteps, the bandits all followed suit and ran quickly on tiptoe.

"Here they come!" Zhang Biao, who was lying about four or five hundred meters away from the south gate, said to the commander beside him.

"Brothers, get ready! Once these bandits get into our pockets, tie them up tightly and beat them up hard!"

Wang Chun gave the order with some gritted teeth, if he had not happened to see the fourth in command of Heiyun Village when he was having dinner with Director Li of the Eighth Route Army yesterday.

I'm afraid I'll be caught off guard by these bandits today, even though I'm prepared to deal with any emergencies.

But after all, the bandits caught them by surprise, and the casualties and losses must have been considerable.

Fortunately, he accidentally met these hateful guys who had joined his army a long time ago, but whose real identities were the four leaders of Heiyun Village.

"Quick! Open the city gate!"

After receiving the response from the boss outside the city, Zhang Hu took the lead and rushed down the city wall.

Then he worked together with several trusted subordinates to force open the heavy city gate.

As soon as they opened the city gate, the bandits who had been lying in ambush outside the city for several hours swarmed in!

Looking at the brothers from the mountain village whom they hadn't seen for several months, they all grinned and had excited expressions on their faces.

"Well done, Lao Si, you didn't let us down!" As soon as the city gate was opened.

Xie Baoqing immediately squeezed through the city gate which was open only wide enough for one person.

He saw the fourth brother struggling to push the door!

He immediately went up to him and hugged his sworn brother, slapping his hands hard on his back.
