Rebirth from the Ashes: Rebuilding the Red Soviet Area
Chapter 172 The Strange Island
Under the leadership of the Sea Wolf
Li Yan, Zhao Long, Zheng Hu and more than 60 crew members followed the island's mountains
Keep walking north
Until you reach the cliff of the mountains
There's a big open space down there.
But there are not many houses built on it
A simple pier was built in front
Sea Wolf pointed to the bottom of the cliff and said: "This is where the Japanese are stationed."
“It turns out that the cliffs here are not far from the seaside.”
"When the Japanese arrived, they blew up part of the mountain."
“We also dug a lot of caves.”
"Then we use the blasted rocks to fill the sea."
“This formed the current harbor.”
Li Yan nodded and said, "This station is surrounded by cliffs on three sides."
"On the one hand, the proposed port was also built"
“Not only easy to defend but difficult to attack”
“Supply ships are also very convenient”
“It seems that the Japanese attach great importance to this place.”
Talking
More than a dozen small boats rowed towards the pier from the sea
The Japanese garrison suddenly heard the low sound of blowing conch shells.
Then many people came out of the cave below the cliff.
Run quickly towards the pier
Soon
These people carried more than a dozen iron boxes
Walking towards the cave with a smile
Li Yan asked, "What are they carrying?"
Sea Wolf frowned and said, "Under normal circumstances..."
"Smuggling transport ships arriving at the station will not bring their goods to the island."
“Unless it’s daily necessities.”
"It took more than a dozen people to carry these large iron boxes."
“It’s obvious that it’s not light”
“It doesn’t look like daily necessities.”
“This place is too far down there.”
“I’m not sure what’s in these boxes either.”
Li Yan nodded
Suddenly, he pointed in the direction of the cave entrance and asked, "Sea Wolf, why is a child in charge of the Japanese garrison?"
Sea Wolf narrowed his eyes and said, "That's not a child."
"It's Ito, the head of the Japanese garrison."
“Because I’m short”
"Especially easy to recognize"
"But don't look at his small size"
"He is a disciple of the Japanese Nen-ryu school."
"Superb swordsmanship"
Li Yan asked in confusion: "Such a powerful person?"
“He is also respected in Japan.”
“Why did you come here to be exposed to the wind and sun?”
Sea Wolf explained: "I heard that he killed his master's entire family."
“I just fled here”
"As for why he was killed, I don't know."
Zhao Long next to him pointed at the cave entrance
Said: "Instructor"
"Look over there"
"Why does that person look so familiar?"
Li Yan looked in the direction Zhao Long pointed.
I only saw a blurry figure flash into the cave
Li Yan shook his head
Said: "The Japanese are the biggest suspects"
“But there are no clues here.”
"Zhao Long, you stay here."
"Monitoring every move of the Japanese"
Sea Wolf
"Post some crew members on the island"
“Find some people you have a good relationship with and ask them privately.”
"See if there is anything unusual on the island recently."
"Such a big sneak attack"
“I will definitely not leave any clues behind.”
Although the sea wolf is eager to take revenge
But there are naturally rules on the sea.
There is no evidence that the Japanese did this.
Blindly attacking the Japanese base
It will unite all the smuggling ships.
Targeting Red Gate
Sea Wolf said: "I will go find the news myself"
“I just don’t believe it.”
“The attacker cannot be found.”
He pointed at a few people.
"You you you"
"Come with me"
Li Yan watched the backs of the Sea Wolfs leaving
Somewhat worried
Said: "Zheng Hu, follow"
"Don't let him do anything stupid"
The fire at Hongmen Station was too big just now
Rushing in is like committing suicide.
In addition, the base had just been attacked.
Li Yan guessed that the attacker would not run too far
I just want to find the murderer first.
But now nothing
Li Yan did not give up
Waiting for Sea Wolf Zheng Hu to leave
I took people back to the Red Gate base again
But the forest in the valley has been burned
Li Yan estimated that even if there was evidence, it would have been burned.
It's completely dark now.
When Li Yan brought everyone back to the transport ship
Xu Moyu rushed over
He asked anxiously, "Has the murderer been found?"
The fisherman sighed
He also came over and said, "Miss Xu"
"I don't want to wait in the cabin no matter what."
"I've been waiting on deck for you to come back."
Li Yan saw Xu Moyu with swollen eyes from crying
I can't bear it
But he still said: "It is not certain yet."
"But people have already spread out to gather information."
“I believe there will be news soon.”
"Strong winds at sea"
"Easy to injure the body"
"Be stronger"
"If you fall, what will happen to these brothers?"
"Let's go back to the cabin."
Xu Moyu looked depressed
But still nodded
Walk into the cabin
Li Yan looked at Xu Moyu's sad back
A helpless sigh
But there is one thing
Li Yan did not say
This sneak attack on the Red Gate base is so strange
First, a sneak attack is usually when someone is unprepared.
Why didn't the other party launch a sneak attack earlier or later?
Just when the Red Gate transport ship came to the island, it attacked
Second, from the moment I heard the gunshots, I ran to the station.
Li Yan and Xu Moyu took at most ten minutes
But at the station
All I saw was black smoke and heard intensive gunfire.
Not a single person in sight
This was the reason why Li Yan stopped everyone at that time
Worried about an ambush
But later I heard from the fisherman that Uncle Wang and a group of children were also at the station.
Then this matter becomes even more weird
In such a short time, even if it is covered by artillery shells
Can't you hear even a scream?
Li Yan was worried that this was a deliberate ploy by the other party to lure the tiger away from the mountain.
But Li Yan was wrong again this time.
Not only was the transport ship not attacked, but the crew members on board were also unharmed.
Third, when Li Yan and Sea Wolf were looking for clues
The whole island is so quiet
It is said that there are so many smuggling ships stationed on the island.
Such a big thing happened
No one was curious to watch.
Li Yan recalled the whole process
I feel more and more that this matter is not that simple
But there's no clue now.
Li Yan did not dare to act rashly
Only static braking
Since the enemy attacked the Red Gate base
It won't end so easily.
Another hour passed
Those who were gathering information on the island returned to the ship one after another.
Li Yan, Xu Moyu, Sea Wolf, Fisherman, Zhao Long, Zheng Hu
Get together
Li Yan asked: "Are there any clues?"
Sea Wolf said: "We walked all over the island"
"Very strange"
“Only a small number of people remain in other garrisons.”
“No one we knew saw it.”
Li Yan frowned
Asked: "Zhao Long"
"How are you doing there?"
Zhao Long said: "After you leave..."
"I have been monitoring the Japanese base"
“Several more small boats came later.”
“They are all metal boxes”
“Everything else is peaceful.”
“But many people came to the Japanese garrison later.”
“Many of them have Western faces.”
"But after dark"
“Someone’s coming to inspect.”
“I came back because I was afraid of alerting the enemy.”
Li Yan asked: "You mean..."
"Many Westerners arrived at the Japanese garrison."
"How many"
Zhao Long thought for a moment and said, "There are probably more than 300 people."
Xu Moyu said: "Could it be that the people from other bases on the island have joined forces with the Japanese?"
"Destroyed Red Gate Station"
Li Yan shook his head
This island is becoming more mysterious.
