Chapter 493: Discovering the Secret Path
"The regiment leader said that he will investigate what happened on the other side of the river and asked us to be careful," the messenger said. "If our side is exposed, we can take coercive measures to ensure the safety of our personnel first."
Although they looked down on the combat effectiveness of the security group, they had an advantageous terrain with no obstructions above the bridge. Zhao Zhiguo did not want Pang Qing, a scumbag, to kill one of their brothers.
"Did you say when to start?"
"We know very little about the situation on the other side of the river, and we must wait until the investigation is clear before we make a decision."
Although they have been coming to Anyang Town for a long time, they know too little about the situation on the west bank of the river. The main reason is that people from the security group control important places, and their people cannot get through at all.
Yao Pengju was met with disdain when he went to conduct reconnaissance. The dogs he kept made it impossible for them to start.
Qin Dongsheng nodded and told the soldiers to go back and have a good rest.
After dinner, Pang Qing came to the river through a secret passage and took a boat to the other side.
The current situation in Anyang Town is very favorable to the Pang family, but he has never slacked off! Almost every night he personally comes to inspect the defense work of their security team.
"Maxin kept me loaded at all times, and he always stayed at his post whether he was eating or sleeping."
Pang Qing inspected the house. This house was built on the commanding heights on the west bank of the river. There was only one road leading to the house from the outside. It was easy to defend but difficult to attack!
Standing on the Maxim machine gun position, Pang Qing could clearly see every move on the bridge. As soon as the gunshot fired, Maxim's firepower could cover the entire bridge, and not a single bird could even think of flying over here.
The security regiment has two Maxims, which Pang Qing bought from other armies at a huge price. As long as you have money these days, you can buy arms.
Some quartermasters dared to buy cannons for money, let alone Maxim machine guns.
In the houses at the commanding heights on both sides, there is a Maxim, guarded by thirty people on each side!
In addition, the Pang family's security regiment also has a treasure, which is his cavalry. Although there are only fifty cavalry, this cavalry is managed by his eldest son and is also stationed on the other side of the river.
.
After inspecting the defenses he personally arranged, Pang Qing was very satisfied. He believed that even the most talented military strategist in the world would not be able to escape.
After completing his inspection every night, Pang Qing would take a boat back to the east bank of the river.
Pang Qing didn't know that when he was walking back by boat, he was already being watched by people arranged by Zhao Zhiguo.
Two figures quietly followed Pang Qing in the darkness, and soon they found the secret passage. There was fire in the secret passage, and a figure was swaying with the fire. It was obvious that someone was guarding the secret passage.
After the two soldiers noted the location of the secret passage, they took a boat to the other side of the river and hid themselves.
Gao Cang was not idle when he returned to Pang's house. He was also looking for the location of the secret passage! He searched the entire front yard but found nothing.
Just when he was about to give up, a fire suddenly lit up in the side room, and several figures flickered.
Gao Cang hid in a dark corner and saw Pang Qing walking out of the room with several people.
After Pang Qing left, Gao Cang sneaked into the room. After careful inspection, he found signs of movement in the cabinet.
Pushing open the cabinet, a little light was revealed in the gap, and there was a slight sound of voices. Gao Cang knew that someone was guarding the secret passage, and he did not dare to enter easily. He could only return to his room for fear of alerting others.
"Battle Commander Gao, our battalion commander asked me to deliver a message!"
After Gao Cang returned, he was still thinking about how to enter the secret passage without being discovered. Qin Dongsheng sent someone here.
"Battle Commander Gao, the regiment commander has sent people to discover the location of the secret passage by the river. We must try our best to let Pang Qing's people go to the other side of the river tonight."
After searching to no avail, two soldiers on the other side of the river arranged for a soldier to come back by boat and report the situation to Zhao Zhiguo.
Zhao Zhiguo judged that if there was a secret passage in Pang's house, there must be a secret passage on the other side of the river.
So he decided to ask Gao Cang to cooperate and let Pang Qing cross the river again tonight.
"I want to see you, Mr. Pang!"
As soon as Pang Qing lay down to sleep, he heard a loud noise in the yard, so Pang Qing had no choice but to go to the front hall.
"Brother Gao, what's going on in the middle of the night?"
"Mr. Pang, you are so biased. Why should you give it to a woman named Qin while I have nothing? Didn't my men help you?"
Gao Cang had long heard from Qin Dongsheng that the Pang family would most likely imprison women on the other side of the river! So he thought that the best way to get Pang Qing across the river was to ask Pang Qing for a woman.
Pang Qing also didn't expect that Gao Cang made such a fuss over a woman.
The Pang family has recently arrested many women. In order to stabilize Gao Cang, they can only agree to arrange a woman for Gao Cang.
"No, I want it now, right away. If you don't give it to me, none of you will be able to sleep!" Gao Cang looked like a scoundrel.
Pang Qing could only arrange for the housekeeper to get a woman for Gao Cang.
At this time, Pang Qing had completely fallen into Zhao Zhiguo's trap.
After the housekeeper crossed the river, he had no idea that someone was watching him on the other side of the river. When he reached the other side of the river, Tian Kezhi had already led an ambush.
"Don't move. If you dare to move, I will beat you to death immediately!"
The housekeeper didn't expect that so many people would suddenly appear in the darkness and arrested him directly.
"Who are you?"
"Is there a secret passage here?" Tian Kezhi asked.
The housekeeper is not Pang Qing. Although he has a high status in the Pang Qing family, Anyang Town does not have any of his properties.
"Yes...yes..." the housekeeper replied quickly.
"Take us in and do as I say. If you do wrong, I will kill you first. If you do well, I can give you a way out."
When Tian Kezhi led his troops to cross the river by boat, he thought that Pang Qing would come in person. He planned to wait for Pang Qing to return before they acted secretly.
But when he found that only the housekeeper came with two people, Tian Kezhi took action decisively.
"I will cooperate well!"
The housekeeper relies on the power of the Pang family to influence everything in Anyang Town. No one is more greedy to enjoy this power than him. If he wants women and money, he must have a share in the evil deeds done by the Pang family in Anyang Town.
Credit.
It is precisely because of his greed for beauty and money in this world that the housekeeper is more afraid of death than the Pang family. When threatened, he does not have the means to counterattack like Pang Qing.
"Is there anyone guarding the secret passage?" Tian Kezhi pointed his gun at the butler's head.
"Yes, there are two people at the entrance and two people at the exit!"
"What's the strength and firepower situation in the yard?"
