The War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression Begins in Songhu

Chapter 599 The Conflict Begins (Bonus Chapter for the Helmsman with a Treasure)

At 5:11 p.m., amidst the sound of mules and horses' hooves.

Huang Yizhi and Huang Adi led a convoy of six large carts straight into a riverside warehouse that the Northern Jiangsu Independent Regiment had temporarily rented.

In no time, the drivers had unloaded everything from the cart.

Immediately, Huang Yizhi pulled out a pack of Lao Dao brand cigarettes from his pocket and offered them to the drivers one by one, saying enthusiastically:

"All of you have worked hard, please have a smoke and take a break."

Huang Adi took out a wad of sizable legal tender from his jacket pocket, without even counting it, and handed it directly to one of the shopkeepers who had come with him.

He said, "Manager Wang, this is the money for the goods."

Manager Wang glanced at the denomination and thickness of the money and immediately waved his hand wildly, repeatedly saying, "Sir, there's too much, too much!"
"It's just some worthless timber, why would it cost so much?"

As a result, Brother Huang waved his hand generously and said:
"It's alright if there's a little extra. You can share it with the other workers, buy a pack of cigarettes, and get half a pound of meat to eat. After all, you've worked hard today, so consider this a little reward."

Seeing that Brother Huang spoke very earnestly, Manager Wang from a second-hand woodworking workshop finally accepted the money.

Afterwards, Manager Wang and his party not only expressed their gratitude profusely before leaving, but also spoke highly of Huang Yizhi and Huang Adi on their way back.

These two officers, as expected of those from the renowned Northern Jiangsu Independent Regiment, are Hu's partners.

Not only was he an outstanding hero in leading troops to fight the Japanese, but he was also a fair-skinned, chubby man who seemed kind, spoke pleasantly and reasonably, and was quite generous.

In this regard, it can only be said that they were completely deceived by the two guys' innocent expressions and mannerisms.

In the eyes of Manager Wang and his colleagues, in this chaotic era of war, those pieces of wood, though of good quality, were nothing more than worthless secondhand furniture.

Or perhaps they salvaged furniture and wood from the ruins of Sand City without any cost, or even just some broken pieces of wood.

The two officers not only offered a high price to buy it, but also gave the leader a generous reward. They were definitely good people.

In the eyes of Huang Yizhi and Huang Adi, this was not some junk at all, but a treasure!

Those furniture and timbers are all made of rosewood, sandalwood, and even golden nanmu. Each piece would be worth a lot of money.

Even if some of the beams and pillars have been broken into two or three pieces, or even many pieces, during the war, they are still quite valuable treasures.

Well, if you can't make furniture, you can still use it to make beads, right?

With this in mind, the two over 200-pound fat men, who were considered good people, happily put all the furniture and wood into a vegetable basket after closing the warehouse door.

In short, this included the antiques, calligraphy and paintings, jade and jade artifacts, and gold spoils they had prepared in advance.

Thanks to the temporary spatial equipment, we didn't have to worry about carrying supplies during this journey, so the loot was definitely the most abundant we've ever collected.

The only pity is that we probably won't encounter this kind of good thing again in the future...

At 11:40 p.m., taking advantage of the pitch-black night, Lao Che secretly approached the side of the military camp after avoiding his patrol team and came to the front of an 89-type medium tank.

Looking around, I realized that the sentry hadn't noticed us at all.

He immediately placed his left hand on the vehicle and, with a thought, put the tank into a bamboo basket he was carrying in his right hand.

After doing all this, Lao Che's face was filled with indescribable anticipation as he imagined the scenes to come.

That's right! Since this kind of basic space equipment has a large enough capacity, why didn't Hu Biao and the others let Lao Che take this Type 89 medium tank back to the island nation in the modern dimension?

So this afternoon, Lao Che personally led a few people to give the tank a thorough maintenance.

Fully loaded with fuel, shells, and machine gun bullets, it's ready to drive this thing into the Japanese territory in the modern world and take down the foreign devils of the Central Q Bureau and the Japanese devils from the island nation.

Then the question arises: is this the strongest tool that Hu Biao and his team have on hand for their next operation in Japan?

Of course not, they have even more powerful and insane methods.

Five minutes later, at the Nationalist Army airfield in the north of the city.

Mina, disguised in a night suit, successfully infiltrated the area using her familiarity with the terrain and the positions of the sentries, and arrived in front of a Hawk-3 fighter jet.

This fighter jet was, of course, borrowed from that principal a week ago.

And the one used to blow up the pontoon bridge, the one that helped breach the walls of Xiangyin County. Logically, Mina should have returned that plane after the mission was complete, since the principal didn't have many planes left to escort them.

However, there's an old saying that goes, "Why should you return a plane you borrowed through your own ability?"
Just kidding! The main reason is that Mina plans to leave this plane with the North Sumatra Independent Regiment so that they can have their own air power.

So the matter of returning it was never mentioned, and no one from the principal came to ask about it.

Unexpectedly, they suddenly found a spatial artifact this time, so naturally they had to take the plane back to cause trouble in the island nation.

Therefore, this plane, equipped with two machine guns and carrying a 227-kilogram bomb, was Hu Biao and his men's strongest weapon.

Then another question arises: facing the Japanese and Uncle Sam, who have fifth-generation fighter jets and are not lacking in man-portable air defense missiles, can this old biplane propeller fighter still be of any use?

Of course it's useful, and very useful, but it depends on where it's used...

******
At 11:59 PM, just one minute before Hu Biao and his group were about to be teleported back to the modern world.

Hu Biao glanced at Annie beside him with some concern, and after speaking to his girlfriend countless times, he uttered this piece of advice:
"How about we just forget about it and wait until we get there before we do it together? You can just run away and find a place to hide."

The reason Hu Biao was so patient in speaking was that Annie had been drugged and stuffed into the carriage after the start of this time travel, and was transported here under such circumstances.

According to the law of inertia and the principle of independence of motion, this is also true.

When Annie returns to the modern world, she will definitely still be in the trunk of the Central Q Bureau's car, instead of just falling onto the road with a 'thud'.

If we follow Hu Biao's advice, Annie should not act rashly after she returns.

She could escape by secretly opening the trunk while the people from the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics were unaware that she would wake up early.

Then find a safe place to hide, and wait for Hu Biao and the others to fly over and gather together before going to cause trouble for the China Q Bureau's island branch.

This is also the safest and most reliable method in his opinion.

However, Anne refused, resolutely rejecting her husband's persuasion.

This girl had always been treated like a princess wherever she went since she was a child. She had never suffered such a great loss before. She was already extremely angry.

So her idea was to stay in the trunk of the car.

They rode in a car belonging to the Central Bureau of Justice all the way to one of their strongholds; once there, they launched a surprise attack, wiping out all the fools, as if collecting some interest first.

Once Hu Biao and his team arrive, they will go together to take down the headquarters of the China Q Bureau in Japan and recoup their investment.

Danger? She didn't think there was any danger at all, especially since she had been caught off guard by a sudden attack, and even after eating the magical steamed bun provided by the mysterious being, which greatly increased her strength.

If there is any danger, it's only those people from the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics who are in danger.

Faced with Hu Biao's repeated persuasion, she did not refuse verbally, but merely raised the MG34 general-purpose machine gun she was holding, her refusal was already very clear.

It should be noted that although Annie did not heed Hu Biao's advice, she was very well prepared and was armed to the teeth.

Look! Besides the M34 general-purpose machine gun he's holding.

She wore a single chain with a 100-shot sash, wrapped it around her body twice, giving her a Rambo-like appearance.

He carried a large knife and an MP28 submachine gun on his back; four small melon grenades and two wooden-handled grenades were hanging on his chest and lower back.

Two pistols were strapped to his waist, and a short-handled shotgun was tucked into his thigh.

The weapons alone were quite intimidating, not to mention that she had added a strap to the vegetable basket, which was now slung across her body.

It also contained more weapons and ammunition, including heavy machine guns and explosive charges, enough to start a small battle.

And just like that, a minute passed quickly, and it was time to return to the modern world; Annie's battle for revenge was about to begin.

When I saw my body gradually turn into countless points of light.

Annie, for some unknown reason, suddenly muttered a classic line from Kayle, the Angel of Justice, in the game League of Legends:

"The conflict has begun..."
