Chapter 121 Don't you want to leave?

Military garrison on Haiming Island?
Brush brush!
For the first time in his life, Battalion Commander Cheng received such focused attention.

"Hehe...that...is..."

Battalion Commander Cheng hesitated for a moment before speaking again: "Let me organize my thoughts... I do know Comrade Shi Xia. She has performed meritorious service many times, acted bravely and righteously, and participated in flood relief efforts. She is a truly patriotic, Party-loving, and people-loving comrade."

Say something I can understand.

The captain suddenly spoke up, and Battalion Commander Cheng chuckled and said two words: "Believable!"

"Absolutely credible, I vouch for it with my life and the honor on my shoulders!"

The captain and Battalion Commander Cheng looked at each other, weighing the pros and cons in their minds. He was willing to do anything to reduce the casualties among the soldiers.

"Okay, contact Shi Xia!"

At present, the initial assault plan has been overturned. The translator, who is also the intelligence officer, will lead Battalion Commander Cheng and the captain to sneak into the village or the vicinity of the village. They need to meet Shi Xia first and let Battalion Commander Cheng confirm his identity before they can proceed to the next step.

The three changed clothes and disguised themselves.

On the way, the translator explained the precautions.

"Strangers are not allowed in the village, and the checks are very strict. We'd better stop nearby, and I'll find Shi Xia to come out."

"There are many weapons inside. If your identity is exposed, retreat from the tower in the southeast direction. The terrain there is complex and advantageous for retreat."

"Don't spill my wine. I was only able to come out today because Shi Xia told me to buy wine."

……

The three of them arrived near the village at a fairly fast pace.

“You wait here…”

"The translator is back!"

A patrol team carrying weapons came over. The translator's back was soaked with sweat. Battalion Commander Cheng and the captain, carrying their loads, were tense and ready to go into battle at any moment.

"The second-in-command said you should be back by now after buying the wine... Hmm—this wine smells good!"

The patrol team lifted the carrying poles that Battalion Commander Cheng and the captain were carrying, smelled the aroma of the liquor, and shouted loudly, "The second-in-command will definitely like it!"

"Go, let's go!"

The translator quickly adjusted his mindset and arrogantly shouted at Battalion Commander Cheng and the captain, "Put it down now and get out of here!"

Battalion Commander Cheng and the captain bent over and bowed, looking honest and obsequious, as if they were afraid of dying.

"No need, let them carry it in. With the second-in-command there, it won't make a difference if anyone goes in!"

"Of course! Our second-in-command is incredibly powerful and domineering!"

A group of people chattered away. The captain and Battalion Commander Cheng could understand a few words, but not quite. The translator, however, understood everything and nodded in agreement.

that's right!
For five days, they fought and challenged each other in the arena every day. From the wolfhounds to the strong men, everyone in the village was beaten into submission by Shi Xia.

And so, Battalion Commander Cheng and his team entered the village, which was known as the most difficult to enter.

The two of them glanced at the translator furtively.

Difficult my ass!

Translators also suffer in their hearts; it used to be really difficult!

But Shi Xia was also amazing; in just five days, she transformed the village.

The group continued walking and arrived at the entrance of the village more than half an hour later.

"My brother is back!"

"You bought some wine? Great, the second-in-command has been waiting for this."

"Tonight we can finally drink and eat to our hearts' content!"

"Bonfire party!"

A group of people were chatting cheerfully. When Battalion Commander Cheng and the captain walked in, they almost thought they had gone to the wrong place.

Aren't those patrols, lined up in neat rows, a bit more organized?
And isn't it a bit incongruous to organize classes for children to learn to read?

Isn't cooking over a stove a bit too smoky and rustic?
Are they vicious and hideous?

How did this idyllic, secluded paradise come about?

Battalion Commander Cheng and the captain had too many questions in their minds, but unfortunately, it wasn't the right time to ask them.

"The translator's back—the second-in-command is waiting for the wine! Hurry up and deliver it!" "Yes, sir!"

The translator led Battalion Commander Cheng and the captain to a secluded bamboo house, which was surrounded by an elegant fence. Small white and purple flowers bloomed on the fence, swaying in the wind and releasing their fragrance.

Under a big tree, on a chaise lounge, Shi Xia had a pretty girl massaging her shoulders on her left and a beautiful girl feeding her grapes on her right.

How uncomfortable!

When Battalion Commander Cheng came in and saw this scene, he lowered his head, and all his thoughts turned into one sentence: It still has to be you, Shi Xia!

This would be outrageous if it happened to someone else, but when it happens to Shi Xia... it makes sense.

The captain had a premonition that the person lying in the chair was the second-in-command, because the air of someone who owned the entire territory couldn't be faked.

No matter how he looked at it, he couldn't figure out how this Shi Xia had become the second-in-command.

"Second Master... the wine has been bought."

The translator stepped forward and, quite naturally and obsequiously, took the palm-leaf fan from someone else, then used it to fan Shi Xia with a gentle, high-low motion.

"Um….."

Shi Xia raised her hand, and everyone around her dispersed.

Battalion Commander Cheng's eye twitched violently... Could it be that Shi Xia doesn't want to leave?

A few minutes later, everyone around had left. Shi Xia stared straight at Battalion Commander Cheng and nodded approvingly.

"Where is that fake beard made of hair from?"

A completely unrelated question caught Battalion Commander Cheng off guard, but he wasn't surprised that Shi Xia recognized him.

"Bring the wine in."

Shi Xia got up lazily, followed closely by the translator. The captain and Battalion Commander Cheng, mindful of their roles, carried the wine into the house.

"When will the operation take place? How do you need my cooperation?"

Shi Xia cut straight to the point, and the captain wasn't one to mince words either; he already knew from Battalion Commander Cheng that Shi Xia was the real Shi Xia.

"Our mission is to rescue Chinese fishermen."

"There are 137 fishermen. Tonight at 10 PM, at the southeastern foot of the mountain, you will meet them. You can take all 137 of them with you."

The captain frowned.

"How can you guarantee the safety of 137 people? How can you leave without a trace?"

Shi Xia shrugged.

"I'm the second-in-command... Do I need to explain why I'm taking a few men out?"

The translator, slightly confused, chimed in, "What about the leader's side..."

Shi Xia tilted her head.

"Oh—I forgot to tell you, the chief's wife gave birth to a big, healthy boy. The chief was so happy that he had a stroke and is now paralyzed in bed, unable to speak."

I don't believe a single word of the translation.

"Why is the boss so happy? It would be better to control things a bit."

"Who says it isn't?"

The translator and Shi Xia sang in unison, while Battalion Commander Cheng looked up at the sky, thinking that this damned pride was not suitable to be shown now!

The captain naturally didn't believe it either, but he had no liking for the gang leader who had committed all sorts of crimes.

"Even if the leader falls, isn't this plan a bit too hasty?"

Shi Xia shook her head.

"Plans can never keep up with changes. The big boss fell down just like that."

The captain couldn't completely trust her, so he prepared two plans: if Shi Xia's plan didn't work, he would launch a full-scale attack.

The captain and Battalion Commander Cheng could not stay any longer, so they left first.

That night, a bonfire party was held in the village. In the words of the second-in-command, they were trying to bring good luck to the first-in-command.

That night, Shi Xia mixed the sleeping potion that Old Master Xu had contributed with the wine.

The method doesn't have to be old-fashioned; it just needs to be effective.
