Chapter 433 Outside Pingyang County
Chapter 433 Outside Pingyang County
After receiving the order, Zhu Biao quickly arrived in Pingyang County with a small entourage.
He led a small team, all dressed in plain clothes, moving in and out of the city, conducting detailed inspections while silently examining the topography of the land.
Their steps were steady and alert, as if every pair of eyes was silently observing everything around them.
At the same time, Xia Shao, who rushed out of Guwu County, had already embarked on his journey to Pingyang County.
The seven or eight people under his command are all elite spies who have experienced life and death tests and emerged from countless dangerous situations.
They followed Xia Shao like a shadow, and every movement revealed a sharpness and competence that should not be underestimated.
Although the two groups of people had different actions, they both had the same goal and converged towards Pingyang County.
When they were approaching Yang County, Xia Shao stopped.
"Any questions?"
Pu Xuesong came over and asked.
"Do you feel that there are people around us?"
Xia Shao looked nervous and alert to the movements around him.
After he said this, the others also stopped and looked around, as if they could hear the sound of people walking around.
"It looks like there are people here, but we shouldn't attract attention with the way we're dressed," Pu Xuesong reminded.
Shrimp Young Master frowned, thought for a moment, and said to everyone, "Let's keep going forward, but be prepared."
After saying that, he reached out and touched the dagger at his waist.
Halfway up the mountain.
Zhu Biao saw the pedestrians at the foot of the mountain. The group, who were originally sparsely distributed, suddenly slowed down, which caught his attention.
After waiting for pedestrians to move around normally, he gently waved to the people around him and said, "These people are a little suspicious."
Upon hearing this, the special forces soldiers immediately became alert and looked towards the people at the foot of the mountain.
"Captain, how about we arrest these people?"
One of the team members said.
"Follow him and send a signal to those around him. We must capture him alive."
Zhu Biao made a prompt decision and decided to catch the man and interrogate him to be on the safe side. After all, this was an extraordinary period and they had to be cautious in everything they did.
The special forces scout followed the target and made sign language to others along the way, determined to capture these people.
After walking for a while, Xia Shao found that someone was following him from behind and halfway up the mountain. However, he wanted to run away, but he was worried that it was a false alarm.
As more and more people followed me, I thought: Oh no!
"Everyone, disperse and escape from here in pairs."
Xia Shao growled and ran forward with someone.
Pu Xuesong also reacted, patted someone on the shoulder, and ran forward along the mountain road.
Seeing this, the scout on the mountain immediately gave orders to the people following down the mountain, ordering them to give chase.
After running for a while, Xia Shao and the others saw a fork in the road ahead. They waved back, signaling everyone to disperse.
There are not many forked roads at the intersection, only three in total.
One group of people saw that there were people running along the road, so they followed another person up the mountain.
There weren't actually that many people following behind. They had originally planned to observe the terrain on the mountain. After being given the instruction to follow, they came down the mountain one by one. There were only about a dozen people in total.
After arriving at the intersection on the mountainside, they found that they had fled separately, so they decided to chase them separately, but they overlooked that someone was going up the mountain.
Xia Shao and his men ran very fast. After all, they were desperate criminals. When faced with life and death, they ran for their lives.
The people behind saw that the target was a bit far away and wanted to take out their guns to shoot, but it was too far away and they couldn't hit it, so they could only continue to chase.
Zhu Biao and his men did not pursue them. They wanted to go and see what was going on, but they found someone acting suspiciously on the opposite side of the mountain.
"Do you see anyone on the opposite hill? Can your gun reach them?"
The person next to him is a sniper. He came here to observe the terrain and find a sniper position.
Snipers usually carry their guns with them, especially the scope on it, which can not only be used to observe the enemy situation, but also can be used for distance measurement when choosing a position.
Hearing Zhu Biao's request to snipe the man on the other side, he raised his gun, took a look, and replied, "This position is within effective range, and the wind direction is not strong today, so we are confident of hunting him down."
When Zhu Biao heard that he was sure of success, he was secretly delighted and ordered his men to shoot or kill them.
The sniper received the order, found a tree branch to support himself, and aimed his gun at the enemy opposite.
Zhu Biao didn't care when the sniper fired, but ordered his men to chase in the direction of those people.
After a brief aiming, the sniper fired decisively.
"boom……"
A crisp gunshot rang out across the valley, and a man on the opposite side fell down.
The sniper decisively ejected the bullet and loaded another one.
His gun was a single-shot weapon that could not be continuously fed, so he had to reload a bullet after each shot.
The gunshots alarmed another enemy. Seeing his companion fall, he didn't care about anything else and fled towards the mountain alone in a panic.
With another gunshot, the second man was hit in the hip by a bullet and fell to the ground, grimacing.
Zhu Biao observed the situation through the telescope and praised proudly: "Beautiful shot!"
……
The gunshots traveled far away, and a team of scouts heard the gunshots and discovered that someone was chasing someone down the mountain, so they went down the mountain to block the enemy's way.
It was not until Zhu Biao came with a wounded man that he saw four enemies being tied up and escorted over.
"You only caught four?"
Zhu Biao asked loudly to the person who came.
"Report, there are eight people in total, we have only captured four, and there is another team that has not returned yet, I don't know if they have captured anyone."
A young man with a good temperament in the team reported.
"We killed one and captured an injured one. It seems there are still two people who have not been caught."
As Zhu Biao spoke, he walked towards the four people kneeling on the ground.
"Tell me, the purpose of your coming here."
The person on the ground said nothing, just lowered his head.
"Separate and use force." Zhu Biao seemed impatient and waved his hand to the scout, looking at the sniper's position on the mountain from time to time.
The injured people on the ground were bleeding profusely and groaning in pain.
"Captain, if he keeps doing this, he will bleed to death."
Seeing this, a team member stepped forward and said to Zhu Biao.
"As long as he opens his mouth and confesses, we can start rescuing him."
Zhu Biao sat lazily and spoke as if nothing had happened.
When the people on the ground heard Zhu Biao's words, they said with a sad face, "There are only seven of us, including our leader Xia Shao, there are only eight of us. You didn't catch Xia Shao."
Seeing this person speak, Zhu Biao said to the team members with satisfaction: "Disinfect him with alcohol and bandage the wound."
Upon hearing the news, the team members took out the first aid kit they carried with them and disinfected the man with alcohol first.
The strong effect of the alcohol licked the air like a flame, causing the curled up figure on the ground to howl involuntarily.
"Stop howling! We're rescuing you. Although the pain may be unbearable, your life is safe. Tell me, what is your plan?"
Zhu Biao stepped forward and stopped the team member who was eager to bandage his wound.
"I..." The injured enemy looked at Zhu Biao's action of blocking the rescue, and his heart was burning with anxiety. He knew very well that the consequences of excessive blood loss would be disastrous, not to mention that his body was being eroded bit by bit by blood at this moment.
"We...we are here to investigate Pingyang County and see how many defenders are stationed there."
He endured the waves of pain all over his body and finally told the truth.
Zhu Biao's eyes were sharp as he pressed on: "Is there anyone in the city colluding with you, both inside and outside?"
