Chapter 1043 No Ammunition Found
Chapter 1043 No Ammunition Found
Jiang Jiyun walked forward with small steps, but before she had gone far, she couldn't help but turn around and look back.
She saw those figures in cloaks walk further and further away until they disappeared from sight.
Watching this scene, she thought to herself that Chairman Chi must be one of those two people who looked exactly alike.
But didn't Xu Chuntang say he worked at the Grain Bureau? Why is he being called the chairman by those people? That title is a bit strange.
Meanwhile, Jiang Wenming and Xiao Wei continued to walk around the courtyard.
Along the way, they noticed several patrol teams, and the two of them walked right past them without any hesitation.
They walked forward and saw rooms, all of which seemed to be inhabited.
After walking over, the two roughly estimated that there were probably close to two hundred people resting there.
At that moment, Xiao Wei suddenly noticed his uncle taking out a paper packet and whispered, "Uncle, you have to be careful! There might be an undercover agent we sent here. So, we absolutely cannot use poison lightly, lest we accidentally hurt our own people."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Wenming, who was about to open the paper package, suddenly froze.
After thinking for a moment, he quickly put the paper package back in his hand and then took out a new paper package.
They walked to the end of the road and only turned back after confirming that no one was around.
As they passed through the dormitory area again, they deliberately slowed down and, when no one was looking, quietly sprinkled some powder on the edges of each window.
A gentle breeze swept by, and the fine powder drifted slowly into the room.
The people who were chatting and laughing in the dormitory gradually fell silent, and everyone lost consciousness and fell into a deep sleep.
Jiang Wenming and Xiao Wei worked in perfect harmony, moving nimbly toward the unlit house.
The guards saw them approaching from afar and felt a little suspicious, but they didn't become wary.
Those who could get in and reach this point were definitely not from outside, so they didn't pay any attention to them.
Just as the two brushed past the sentry post, they swiftly attacked in a flash!
Two strong hands gripped the guard's neck like iron clamps, followed by two crisp snapping sounds.
The two soldiers on guard duty died without any chance to resist.
After completing this series of actions, Jiang Wenming and Xiao Wei effortlessly dragged the two corpses through the door and into the house.
Upon entering the house, they were immediately drawn to the mountain of grain piled up before them.
Jiang Wenming and Xiao Wei exchanged a glance, and without saying a word, they began to store the food into their personal space.
In no time, the room full of grain disappeared without a trace.
However, after they had taken over several houses, Jiang Wenming couldn't help but mutter under his breath, "Why is there only food here... why aren't there any weapons stored here?"
Xiao Wei took out a hand-drawn map, looked at the location drawn by Jiang Jiyun, pointed to the place, and said, "We have to go west. There is a row of small houses with doors facing east over there, and the guards there are quite strict."
Just before they were about to leave, they did something that seemed insignificant but was actually crucial.
Light a pile of hay bales that were emitting thick smoke, and sprinkle some medicinal powder evenly on them.
Fate is always full of drama and coincidence. Just when everything was proceeding smoothly according to Jiang Wenming and Xiao Wei's plan, Jiang Jiyun unexpectedly arrived at the location that Xiao Wei had mentioned.
She stared wide-eyed at the patrol teams that kept passing by.
After some thought, Jiang Jiyun decided to go back and change her clothes first.
If we're going to fight the enemy later, it'll be a bit inconvenient to move around in that woman's clothes.
So she quickly changed into a lighter, more practical outfit; at the same time, she took off the wig and wrapped her bald head in a cloth.
Standing in front of the mirror, Jiang Jiyun gently stroked the short stubble that had just sprouted on her head and couldn't help but sigh: "Alas... I wonder when I will be able to have two real braids that grow out of my own like other people?"
After adjusting her mindset, Jiang Jiyun took a deep breath and stepped out of the space again.
She hid in the shadows until the patrol team left, then with a wave of her arm, a large, black and white spotted pig flew out!
With a loud thud, the pig fell heavily to the ground, rolled around once, and immediately fell into a daze.
It stood up unsteadily, making continuous howling noises to express its protest and dissatisfaction.
The patrol members who had originally left were also quite frightened by the sudden squeals of the pigs.
They panicked and ran frantically toward the source of the sound, only to be stunned when they saw that it was a spotted pig weighing over 200 pounds.
"How come there's such a big pig here?"
"We don't raise pigs here."
"Where did this pig come from?"
"Look, it's kicking its hooves, what's it trying to do... It's charging at us..."
……
While everyone's attention was focused on the grumpy, rampaging big spotted pig, Jiang Jiyun reached the door of the house.
Jiang Jiyun cut the lock and went inside very quickly; the room was quite spacious.
She calculated that if the entire length from north to south were this large, there would be eight rooms of this size.
However, the room only contained guns and mortar barrels, but no bullets or shells.
Jiang Jiyun cleared out the place, not thinking of leaving from the outside, but instead digging through the wall from the inside.
She had already checked; the walls here weren't made of cement like in later generations, nor were they made of glutinous rice bricks like in ancient times. So she took out her tools and started digging.
Sweating profusely, she pulled out a hole large enough for her to crawl through, and saw that it contained various guns but no ammunition.
"Bang! Bang!"
Jiang Wenming and Xiao Wei, who were hiding in the shadows, suddenly felt a pain in their backs and knew that they had been targeted by a sniper.
Upon hearing the gunshots, the patrol team members who were chasing the pigs stopped, raised their guns, and ran towards Jiang Wenming and his group. The battle broke out without warning.
Jiang Jiyun only had time to empty the four warehouses before he heard a fight breaking out outside.
She had just picked up her gun and was about to rush out when she saw the warehouse door being opened from the outside.
"Da da da……"
While those people were shocked to find the warehouse empty, Jiang Jiyun opened fire on them with his submachine gun.
The undercover agents lurking in the house were completely baffled. When they ran to the dormitory area and saw people snoring loudly that they couldn't be woken up, they knew there was a big problem.
