Heavy Industry Empire

After more than half an hour, two soldiers and a few villagers came carrying a lot of things.This is a huge silver-white pocket, and a stainless steel folding basket, and a set of gas stove-like equipment.

"Come on, let's all help and open the bag." Liu Tianling asked everyone to open the bag, the stainless steel basket, and put the gas stove on top of the basket as high as a person.Another large electric fan was hanging on the side of the basket.

The villagers all guessed what it was, and some said: "This is a big bag, and it will be used to hold bandits later."

"That's not it. Haven't you seen such a rope? It's hundreds of meters long and has a hook. It's used to hang people up the mountain."

Another fellow licked his tongue: "I think it looks like a cooking stove, maybe it's cooking for us to eat."

After a while, the gas heated up, and the huge bag bulged up. It turned out to be a huge hot air balloon. As for the fan on the stainless steel basket, it was naturally a booster propeller.

Liu Erniang looked at the huge hot air balloon and asked stupidly, "What's the use of this thing?"

"You'll know later. Chai Fei put two boxes of grenade shells into the hanging basket, and we set off."

Liu Tianling, Chai Fei, and another sniper, the three of them carried their weapons into the gondola, and hot air was sprayed into the balloon, and the balloon finally got up with the gondola. , the propeller turned quickly, pushing the hot air balloon to the top of Old Bear's Den Mountain.

In the hanging basket, Liu Tianling tested the wind direction and wind speed, and found that today is an excellent weather, no wind, light and quiet, which is more conducive to the suspension of the hot air balloon.The huge balloon was kept at 800 meters above the old bear's den mountain. It was too high from the sky, and the bandit's house on the ground was like a pigeon's nest.One after another, the bandits who had been hiding ran out from the cave and behind the low wall, pointing at the hot air balloon in the sky and chattering non-stop.

One of the leaders ran into the cave because he didn't know what to do, "The head of the family, it's not good, a monster flew over from the sky, I don't know what it is."

Liu Heiqi was also taken aback: "Could it be an airplane? Impossible, I only heard that Jiang Guangtou in Nanjing has an airplane. Where did the little militia get the airplane?"

The bandit next to him echoed: "The Japanese also have planes, but they won't fly into this poor mountain pass. They must be kites flown by militiamen."

Liu Heiqi led people out of the cave, and went outside, pointing and watching.Chai Fei's sniper rifle had seen a group of bandits coming out, and it was impossible to tell which one was Liu Heiqi at this distance. Anyway, he looked like a leader and opened fire. He killed two bandits with bang bang, and Liu Tianling did not. Idle, picked up five or six small melon grenades, and smashed them down. The effect was surprisingly good, and the grenades exploded above the heads of the bandits.

"Ah, my eyes are blind."

"My God, my arm."

"Legs, who saw my legs."

There are also bandit leaders who are very clever: "Hurry up, that's a monster created by the militia." The rifle fired at the balloon bang bang, but from the bottom to the top, and it was 800 meters away, it couldn't hit at all.

Tiehan heard the gunshots and knew that the bandits had come out of their dens. The five mortars seized the opportunity, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang Hit the cannonball.

Besides, in the hanging basket, Chai Fei and another soldier also gave up their sniper rifles and picked up mortar shells and threw them down one after another. The shells trigger the fuze and explode when they hit the ground. Unlike grenades, they have to be pulled. It exploded in the distance.

There were rumbling explosions one after another, and the bandits were terrified, and they drilled into the cave one after another, and those who couldn't find the cave hid behind the low wall.

All in all, it was a panic, the bandits were always frightened, so the morale of the army was unstable and the people were panicked.

In the cave, Liu Heiqi fled back in embarrassment. Several of the bandit leaders who went out just now had died outside.Liu Heiqi still had a lot of blood and flesh on his body.

"Grandma, this goddamn Liu Tianling is bullying too much, I must kill him." Liu Heiqi gritted his teeth in hatred.

The bandits on the side pulled out their pistols one after another: "One word from the boss, let's rush down the mountain and fight to the death."

Liu Heiqi shook his head helplessly: "It's useless, we can't take revenge at all. After dark, let's break out from the secret road, and then I will find a way to make the brothers live a better life."

It was getting dark gradually, a waning moon hung on the branches, and the howling of wild wolves came from the valley.The soldiers were fine, talking and laughing one by one with their guns in their hands, but the timid villagers had already started to get scared, and Lei Hu encouraged everyone with his guns, which calmed down the people.

Liu Tianling came to the people and said: "Folks, it's already dark, and we have to ambush the bandits at night, why don't you all go back."

Some said that my pigs hadn't been fed yet, some said that my cows hadn't been led yet, and some said that I really wanted to beat the bandits, but my eggs hadn't been picked yet.However, there are also a group of young people who are determined, led by Lei Hu and others. These people are all passionate about 20 years old.

"Commander Liu, we're not leaving. Let them go back. You soldiers are not afraid of anything we are afraid of. People are dead. The bandits who are not as good as pigs and dogs are all killed. How can you go home?"

Liu Tianling fully respects everyone's opinions. After all, they are ordinary people, not soldiers. In the end, more than 300 people went home and 200 people stayed.Liu Tianling handed over the 200 people to the commander of Lei Hu, and continued to suppress bandits at night.

Liu Erniang looked at her pocket watch, it was already nine o'clock, she turned to Liu Tianling and said, "Leader, I feel that the old bear's den is empty."

Liu Tianling was taken aback: "You feel it too?"

"Yeah, I used to always feel the feeling of being peeked at, but now that feeling is gone."

It turns out that this woman's feeling came from voyeurism, such a sensitive feeling.

"The bandits should be scared, but I just don't know where the bandits came from. There must be a secret passage in the woods."

With a wave of Liu Tianling's hand, everyone bowed their backs and held their guns. More than a dozen people holding long wooden sticks kept stabbing the ground in front of them. They were trying to destroy the bandit's trap.

All the way was safe, and when we reached the gate of the cottage, more than a dozen pioneers climbed up with submachine guns, but there was no one there.I searched the entire old bear's den, and found nothing alive except dozens of sheep. There is a lot of food in the warehouse, let alone tens of thousands of catties. If we really stick to it, it is possible for these bandits to guard for ten days and a half months. of.

It's really strange, the entire cottage is just such a road out of the mountain, and the other sides are densely populated with pepper trees and locust trees, which are also thorny trees that the bandits deliberately planted to prevent others from coming up from there.

"Everyone search carefully to see if there are any caves or secret passages." Liu Tianling ordered.

Immediately, a team of 50 people, militia soldiers searched around with flashlights, Lei Hu and others searched around with torches. After searching for half an hour, many holes were found in the ground, but they were all small holes, and there was no way to the outside at all. cave.Lei Hu said: "Leader, this mountain is almost all made of hard rocks. Unless there is a ready-made cave, it is impossible to dig a cave. They must have other ways."

Chai Fei and the others, who were in charge of the search in the east, barked desperately towards the dense pepper forest, and Liu Tianling also came over when he heard the sound.

"Could it be that the bandits passed through this dense pepper forest?" Liu Tianling said.

The iron man shook his head: "Come on, look at the densely packed pepper forest, not to mention people, it is not easy even for rabbits to walk through it. Hundreds of bandits have to cut down a large pepper forest at least to pass here, but now No trace at all."

"It should be, my dog ​​can't be wrong." Chai Fei said.

The two still argued over this issue. Li Yinbao was not an expert in fighting, so he kept silent. His responsibility was to protect Liu Tianling.

Liu Tianling looked at it carefully for a while, and suddenly laughed: "Haha, I understand."

"What do you understand?" the crowd asked.

Liu Tianling pointed to the pepper grove: "Look, the pepper trees in other places are already as thick as your wrist, why are the pepper trees here only thin, and the branches and leaves are not lush? Why?"

"The fat and water are not good, so you don't need to ask." Tie Han replied.

Liu Erniang shook her head: "No, the soil on a mountain has very little difference in fertilizer and water."

Liu Tianling squatted down, stretched out his hand and pulled up a pepper tree. Everyone was surprised and said, "Does the leader want to learn from Lu Zhishen?"

As soon as Liu Tianling exerted force, the entire pepper tree rose up from the roots, and there was a flower pot underneath, which was full of grass, and the pot below was not visible at all.

At this moment, everyone understood that this prickly ash forest was planted in flower pots, so it grew thin and thin.Everyone worked together, and quickly moved the woods away. There were so many pepper trees, at least 2000 pepper trees, and a secret path came out.

Li Yindao beside him couldn't help nodding: "When I traveled the rivers and lakes in the early years, I saw the formations made by the so-called movable trees on the rivers and lakes, and I think those moving trees should also be planted in flowerpots.

Liu Tianling also nodded secretly. It seems that these bandits have put in a lot of effort, and it would be great if they put this effort on the right path.

Tie Han sighed: "I have been looking for a secret path for more than an hour, and the bandits are all gone, so why should we fight?"

"They can't run away, don't you realize that the cavalry company is gone?" Liu Tianling smiled.

Besides, Liu Heiqi was bombed by the hot air balloon. Although the casualties were very small, he realized that the old bear's den couldn't carry it. The militia had artillery and shot up the mountain every day.As soon as it was dark, he took his brothers away. After more than an hour of groping in the mountains, the team finally came out of the mountains and came to Ping Road.

Suddenly, the sound of horseshoes rolled, "Kill!" There was a violent shout of killing, and the bandit who had just escaped from death was heartbroken.
