Chapter 717 Enemy Tracks
Seeing Xiao Liu running in, Section Chief Yu frowned.
As for the Ran family, Yang Xiaotao is also in trouble here.
Although the other party is very secretive, they have taken it seriously since the deaf old lady happened last time.
"Section Chief, there is news from the courtyard."
Xiao Liu calmed down and said, "My sister-in-law came to me today and said that Liu Haizhong's wife in the backyard had been inquiring about Yang Xiaotao's whereabouts in the past two days."
"Also, Liu Guangfu said that every time Liu Haizhong returned Home is written in the house "Writing and painting."
"He didn't understand some words, so he asked Liu Guangfu to help. Only then did he realize that the information collected was from Yang Xiaotao."
Xiao Liu finished explaining the situation. I didn't think it was a big deal.
Of course Section Chief Yu knew Xiao Liu’s sister-in-law. At first, he wanted to arrange for people to be stationed in the courtyard for nearby protection, but he couldn’t find a suitable excuse and didn’t want to alert the snake. However, he didn’t expect Xiao Liu’s cousin to be here. .
Because the other party didn't know Xiao Liu's identity, he asked Xiao Liu to move around frequently. Since his sister-in-law was indeed quite suitable as an 'investigator', he asked her to help collect information.
Of course, this matter came from the street office.
"Has Liu Haizhong been in contact with anyone recently?"
Section Chief Yu still knows a little about Liu Haizhong. Apart from being obsessed with 'bureaucracy' and liking to solve educational problems with violence, he doesn't know much about Liu Haizhong. Not a brainless person.
“No, apart from going to work and going back to the courtyard, there are no other social activities.”
"Xiao Bo."
"Section Chief."
"Contact the comrades in the steel rolling mill to see his recent activities."
"Yes."
"Xiao Liu, you go to the courtyard to stay for two days."
"Understood."
The sun began to set in the west, and the afterglow shone on the desolate Gobi, making it even more deserted.
In the valley.
More than three hundred men and horses were fully armed.
Although they did not have uniform clothes, their toughness was beyond words, and they stood motionless in the cold wind.
They carried spears in their hands and sabers at their waists.
There were even a few Czechs being held in the arms of those with a wide heart and a fat body.
In the middle, there is a 60mm mortar that was disassembled and placed on horseback, and the artillerymen on both sides took it and hung ammunition boxes.
The whole team waited quietly in the valley, filled with chills in the cold wind.
In front of the team, Tie Ying's face was full of spring breeze, and the wings on his head were even more delicate. He looked at the woman riding beside him from time to time, feeling satisfied.
A straight military uniform was worn on Butterfly's body, which outlined his figure, and the collar badge on his shoulder made him feel ashamed.
However, only by conquering such a woman can you feel a sense of accomplishment.
“Coming!”
The woman’s voice interrupted the scene in Tie Ying’s mind, causing him to come back to his senses and look ahead.
Seeing Bai Yuhua approaching on horseback, Tie Ying stepped forward quickly, "Commander!"
"The commando team has been prepared, please review it!"
Bai Yuhua nodded lightly without saying much.
Looking at the brother who had been following him, Bai Yuhua's eyes flashed with sadness.
“Brothers, I’m at home, waiting for everyone to come back and drink!”
Hohoho
Everyone cheered, Bai Yuhua walked up to Tieying, glanced at the butterfly, and said solemnly, "This journey is day and night, brothers, it is up to you to lead them, be sure to bring them all back to me."
" Don't worry, Commander, I'm here, no problem."
"It's just them. Can those bastards be better than Xiao Dongyang back then?"
"Brothers, one person can finish the job with one knife."
Bai Yuhua nodded happily, as if remembering Rui Yien back then. Qiu patted Tieying on the shoulder, and then looked at Butterfly aside.
"Colonel Bai, please don't worry. I have already released the news. As long as the plan is successful, someone will help us. By then, you and your family and brothers will live a free and prosperous life."
< br>Bai Yuhua nodded slightly, the smile on Butterfly's face still remained.
I took one last look at the brothers on the horse, and then saw them off together with the dozens of people, men, women, old and young, who stayed in the valley.
“Let’s go, chop off your head!”
Tie Ying roared, and the team rushed out of the valley.
Behind him, Butterfly is also riding a horse, with a Browning pistol on his waist, looking heroic.
Rumble
Everyone rode on horseback, following closely behind.
Under the sun, the team stretched out for a long day.
Target, Southwest.
Bai Yuhua looked at the people leaving, and the majesty he had tried to maintain collapsed in an instant.
"Dad, will Uncle Tie come back?"
The girl standing next to her asked softly, with a little boy following her.
Looking in the direction of the War Horse Courtyard, the little boy had a look of desire on his face.
Bai Yuhua didn't answer, just watched the smoke and dust billowing and dissipated in the blink of an eye.
"Ma Chun!"
"Here, Commander!"
Suddenly, Bai Yuhua looked solemn and called to his subordinates.
"Let everyone prepare their bags, take everything they can, and set off in the evening."
"Huh?"
Ma Chun was a little confused.
"Why don't you go quickly?"
Bai Yuhua snorted coldly, Ma Chun did not dare to say more, and hurriedly went down to make arrangements.
"Dad, aren't we waiting here? Didn't you say we were going to the north?"
The daughter was confused, but Bai Yuhua shook his head.
"Going to the north? You're going to die. Who do you think Butterfly is?"
"This guy is so cruel."
"Even if you go to the north, you're going to die."
>
Bai Yuhua directly rejected Butterfly's proposal.
No matter whether the opponent succeeds or not, he will not be here, waiting to die.
"But if we leave here, what will we do if Uncle Tie comes back?"
"Don't worry, as long as he comes back, he will find us!"
"Then where should we go?" "Go to the south."< br>
Bai Yuhua said firmly.
"South? Luobunao?"
"Yes, that's right there. It's surrounded by the Gobi desert and sparsely populated. It's exactly where we are hiding."
The next day, early morning, the farm.
Yang Xiaotao went out after breakfast and happened to encounter Lao Ma wandering outside, so he stepped forward to ask.
"How is your research going, Mr. Yang? Do you still want tamarisk?"
Lao Ma asked happily. Since Yang Xiaotao asked the farm to find some tamarisk last time, this task has been given to Lao Ma.
Of course, Lao Ma didn't know what Yang Xiaotao wanted Hongliu for. He only regarded it as his own task, but it did not prevent him from helping Yang Xiaotao.
Thanks to Yang Xiaotao's credit, the wolf meat gave adults and children on the farm a taste of meat, and the peeled off wolf skins also made this winter much warmer.
He was given a wolf's skin. Although he and Gao Yu were squeezed into the same bunk, it also gave Lao Han some relief.
"Just to do some research?" Yang Xiaotao said casually, "Old Ma, you are very familiar with this area around you."
He has experimented many times in the past few days, starting from Populus euphratica wood, the roots of Populus euphratica, and then thinking about tamarisk, but Xiaowei was exhausted.
These require a lot of materials, so Lao Ma became his 'assistant', going out to look for things when he had time.
Of course, there are gains, but there are still more similarities in energy between the two. Yang Xiaotao plans to study it further and narrow the scope.
“Don’t tell me, there is nothing within ten miles around here. I really know.”
“This red willow is called Wei Liu by the locals because it looks very strange. Sometimes it looks like a ball of grass, and you can’t tell which is the trunk and which is the branches.”
Lao Ma is a good storyteller and introduced it to Yang Xiaotao.
"Old Ma, besides tamarisk, what other plants are there?"
"There are many, like tumbleweeds, Welwitschia, and by the way, there are some camel thorns in the west. "
"This is a good thing..."
Lao Ma said that he was not playing, so Yang Xiaotao couldn't help but interrupt to save time.
"You can get some for me when you have time. I need to study it."
"Hey, don't worry, I'll remember it."
Lao Ma patted his chest and promised, "But, Teacher Yang You've been studying this for so many days , what are you going to do?”
“Well, it’s okay to tell you, look at the salt-alkali land in this place.”
Yang Xiaotao thought for a while and finished his thoughts, Lao Ma’s eyes widened. Eyes, mouth muttering.
"Be good, I'll be good."
"You knowledgeable people are extraordinary. Not only do you dare to think, you also dare to think, you also dare to do it. It's amazing, it's amazing."
Lao Ma sighed for a while.
Immediately thinking of the wood for the fire, Lao Ma secretly glanced at Yang Xiaotao, feeling a little flustered.
"Teacher Yang, if it succeeds, corn can be grown on the land here?"
"This, if successful, should be possible."
Yang Xiaotao couldn't guarantee it, so he could only speak vaguely.
Unexpectedly, Lao Ma seemed to be full of energy, "Teacher Yang, if you want anything else, we will tell you together."
"Well, just a little more will be fine."
"Okay, when I come back from my work, I will find it for you."
"No hurry!"
Farewell to Lao Ma, Yang Xiaotao returned to the house again to sort out documents.
Carry out secret research by the way.
Boom, boom, boom
The sound of horse hooves roared, waking up the entire Gobi desert.
This is a cavalry team of more than 300 people. Everyone is riding a horse, with a long gun, a short gun on the back, and a mortar on the horseback, as the team continues to advance.
In the front, a man with a maroon face and wings spread out on his head is holding a woman in his arms. The two are close to each other, very intimate.
After one night of marching, Butterfly’s body couldn’t stand it anymore.
I have been pampered in the factory these years, and my health is not as good as before.
There was no choice but to be taken by Tie Ying, and the two of them rode together.
Fortunately, the two men changed their horses in time, but it did not slow down the team's speed.
Xu...
Tie Ying pulled the reins and the entire team stopped quickly.
"Gourd, look where you are?"
Tie Ying took Butterfly off the horse and shouted to the man behind him.
Soon, a man in a sheepskin jacket ran over, took out a map from his arms, opened it and spread it on the ground.
At first glance, the map is hand-drawn and very rough.
But in this vast Gobi desert, just mark the important locations.
"Hulu, where are we?"
"Second Master, we are here. Ten miles further, there is a mountain col with trees in it. We can go there to take shelter. .”
Tieying looked at the map and nodded with satisfaction.
It has been a day and a half since we left the valley. In order to avoid alerting the enemy and preventing accidents, the entire team traveled day and night and took them in a big circle.
Although it is slower, it is better than safety. If you encounter a farm along the way, avoid it. Fortunately, there are no patrols.
I hope things are going smoothly.
“Where is our goal?”
Hulu looked at the map, and finally pointed to the southeast, "According to the intelligence, they should be here!"
Tie Ying frowned, if the raid was wrong, it would just be a warning, and the opponent would be prepared. Too bad.
"Xiaoying, can you confirm the location?"
"It's almost this area, but we have to see which farm specifically."
Tie Ying frowned, The uncertainty of this kind of intelligence is far worse than when I rushed to Xiaoguozi.
The people back then were passing on information overtly and covertly.
What a pity
"According to our speed, we will set off this evening. After determining the target, we will launch a surprise attack in the middle of the night, just like killing a kid, and end the battle before dawn."
< br>Tieying stated his plan, simple and practical.
“Okay!”
Then he mounted his horse and continued to move forward, and soon came to the secret place mentioned by the gourd.
Rumble
The war horse was ordered again, blowing like a whirlwind and quickly disappearing on the horizon.
