A post-apocalyptic female soul travels back to the War of Resistance against Japan
Chapter 53 Casting a Long Line to Catch a Big Fish 1
Cheng Ying noticed the two men furtively glancing towards the area where the supplies were stored. It seemed they were surveying the terrain to determine when to make their move, but she didn't know. She had to keep a close eye on them. Just then, Cheng Ying saw one of them walk to the side. She immediately followed to see where he was going.
Cheng Ying followed this person, who kept circling outside the warehouse compound. The person seemed to be scouting the terrain, looking for a way to enter. The person was quite cautious, constantly looking back. Fortunately, Cheng Ying was still invisible, otherwise she might have been discovered. Cheng Ying was grateful a thousand times in her heart for having this invisibility ability!
Cheng Ying saw the man walk to a low wall, look around to make sure no one was watching, then take a few steps back, run up, and push off the wall with his foot. Hey, not bad! This guy's got some skills; he managed to grab the top of the wall with both hands. With a powerful leap, he scaled the low wall. Cheng Ying looked around again and finally understood his plan: he wanted to use the low wall, since it was close to the wall where supplies were stored, to climb over it.
Cheng Ying didn't move at this time, watching him climb up the low wall to the top of the courtyard wall. But he didn't lean his body inside. He only poked half his head out to look inside. He saw a patrol team passing by. He quickly lowered his head and waited for the patrol team to pass before raising half his head again to secretly watch the situation inside.
The man peered over the wall for a while longer, realizing it wasn't as easy as he'd imagined, before finally climbing down. He didn't go after the man from before, but instead turned and walked behind the wall. Cheng Ying immediately followed him, arriving at the back of the warehouse. This man seemed quite skilled; he touched the wall, apparently intending to enter the warehouse from behind and stealthily smuggle out the grain and supplies.
Modern houses are built with mud and sand, and it is easy to pry out the bricks with tools. If someone who knows this can do it, as long as the integrity of the house is guaranteed and there is enough space for people to enter and exit, it is possible to do it.
After circling around again, the man returned to the other man's side. The two whispered to each other, exchanged a glance, and left. Cheng Ying continued to follow them, and only after seeing them return to the dilapidated house did she go back to report to Captain Sun.
When Cheng Ying returned to the team and reported what she had just seen to Captain Sun and Regiment Commander Wei, Regiment Commander Wei and Captain Sun discussed the matter with Regiment Commander Liu Yang in a very serious manner.
So they decided to deploy men near the spot where the group had scouted the area. If they dared to touch a single brick or tile, they wouldn't be spared; they'd make sure they didn't leave alive. After the group finished discussing, Captain Sun took Cheng Ying out to arrange the men. Although they didn't know when the group would arrive, they had to make the necessary arrangements.
They also sent people to keep an eye on the group's residence. The group probably numbered no more than 20 people, but for safety reasons, Captain Sun and Cheng Ying deployed more men. It was only a little past 2 PM; they wouldn't act so early. If they were to make a move, it would likely be around midnight.
Because Cheng Ying and the others didn't know when the other side would make their move, they took turns eating dinner in the evening. After each shift, they would eat and then wait for the other side to arrive in the vicinity.
Around 2 a.m., a team member came to report to Captain Sun and Cheng Ying, saying, "Captain Sun, that group over there is making a move." Upon hearing this, Captain Sun immediately perked up and said, "Attention all groups, that group is coming over soon!" The other team members also became excited upon hearing this, their sleepiness vanished, and only excitement and anticipation remained.
Soon, several figures appeared, carrying various tools, and cautiously approached the back of the house. Cheng Ying recognized them as the two who had been surveying the terrain during the day. They picked up their tools, carefully maneuvered around the back of the house for a while, and then began prying up the bricks behind it.
