The Life of a Son-in-Law in a Courtyard House

Yang Dalin tied up the other two guys and looked at the chubby boy, saying, "Not bad, you're not completely stupid yet."

They also knew that something was off about this group.

Did you hear those walkie-talkies they were carrying being used to contact anyone else?

"On the way, when I first got on the bus, I thought I heard something, and I think my carriage and driver's cab weren't that soundproof."

I didn't hear clearly, but it sounded like a report that the vehicle had been found and they were in pursuit.

As for whether they continued to report after getting off the bus, I don't know.

Upon hearing this, Yang Dalin realized something was wrong; these people might have other accomplices or a mastermind behind them.

Yang Dalin quickly threw the two men, who were tied up and gagged, into the back of the carriage.

They threw the chubby driver into the passenger seat.

Yang Dalin started the car.

We prepared to take the car and our people to meet up with Captain Jing.

Their location may have already been leaked; they need to be moved immediately.

Yang Dalin started the car and got into the driver's seat. The chubby guy shouted, "Hey, big brother, are you sure you can handle this? If you can't drive this car, let me drive it. Don't break it."

This car is my lifeblood.

Yang Dalin shouted into the air, "Shut up, I drive much better than you."

If you say another word, I'll throw you into the valley to feed the wolves.

"Hey, no, no, just drive slowly. It's not like the valley is feeding wolves."

Yang Dalin started the engine and quickly got the vehicle moving.

Within minutes, they arrived at the position where the three scouts sent out by Captain Jing had been.

The car was almost there, but I didn't see the three of them.

Listening carefully, Yang Dalin knew that when the three of them saw the vehicle coming, one of them must have run back to deliver the message, while the other two, armed, hid by the roadside valley.

Yang Dalin stopped the car, rolled down the window, and shouted to them, "It's me. I took a detour and caught three people."

Two security guards on the edge of the valley came out when they heard it was Yang Dalin.

"It's you, Dalinzi! You scared us half to death. You even grabbed three people in the car?"

Do you need our help?

"No need, I'll take them to see the captain and the others."

Keep a close watch.

"Okay, we heard a car is coming, so we sent Xiao Wang to inform them. Be careful on your way, so as not to be misunderstood."

"Okay, no problem, I'll go over there first, you two brothers."

Then Yang Dalin continued driving forward, rounded a cliff, and could vaguely see Captain Jing's vehicle campsite. To prevent any misunderstanding ahead, Yang Dalin turned off the headlights and shone his flashlight on the road.

This was the signal he and Captain Jing had agreed upon.

That way, Captain Jing would know it was him.

Yang Dalin quickly drove the car to the campsite.

The campfire at the campsite has been extinguished.

It's estimated that Team Jing was also considering safety.

As soon as Yang Dalin got out of the car, he saw several people surrounding him.

Yang Dalin pointed to the car: "Captain Xiao, there are two people in the car, and there's a driver in the passenger seat."

Captain Xiao waved his hand, and immediately someone went up to arrest the person.

Captain Jing pulled him aside.

Yang Dalin glanced at the scene and saw that three of the eight people on the cliff had already been lowered down.

There are people reviewing it.

The other five people are probably still up there and need to be slowly lowered down.

Captain Jing asked, "Dalinzi, one of the three we just interrogated confessed that they were spies who were ordered to impersonate our soldiers and come to attack us."

What's going on with you three?

Once Yang Dalin heard that it was confirmed to be a spy, he was relieved and briefly explained the situation.

Yang Dalin didn't completely believe what the chubby driver said.

It simply stated the situation objectively.

Even if the chubby driver is truly innocent, he won't be released easily; he'll probably be investigated several times.

Fortunately, no damage was caused to the goods in Yang Dalin's convoy.

If losses are incurred, even if the chubby driver was wrongly accused and coerced, he will still be in trouble.

Yang Dalin then mentioned something else: "Captain Jing, this group has walkie-talkies, they can make and send telegrams, I suspect our whereabouts may have been leaked."

There must be a big boss behind this, and I suspect there are more than just these few people coming after us.

These guys failed to ambush us; if things go wrong, the leader might arrange for others to ambush us as well.

This puts us in a very passive position.

I think we should travel through the night and rush forward.

We can either return to the plains and continue south, or we can change our route.

That way, even if the leader knows we've changed our route, it won't be so easy for him to contact anyone to ambush us.

Upon hearing this, Captain Jing called over Captain Wang and Captain Xiao to discuss it together.

Everyone thought Yang Dalin's second idea was better.

Because if we continued walking into the mountains overnight, there were unpredictable dangers ahead on the mountain road.

We've only gone a short distance into the mountains. Let's turn back the way we came, get out of the mountains first, and continue driving south.

Then take another route and enter Shanxi Province.

This is safer.

Captain Jing saw that everyone agreed with Yang Dalin's opinion.

He said, "Okay, let's do as Dalinzi says."

All five people on the cliff were lowered down.

They will be interrogated again on the way.

Notify the three scouts one kilometer ahead on the left to return.

Everyone else, hurry up and pack your things; we need to travel through the night.

We'll find a place to rest later in the night.

"In a bit, at Dalinzi, you and your master will continue as the sentry guard vehicle."

"yes,"

"yes,"

"yes,"

The group obeyed Captain Jing's orders.

Yang Dalin climbed up the mountain again to help Brother Tian lower the five guys and their equipment off the cliff.

Then Tian Ge and the others went down the cliff first, and Yang Dalin went down last.

After counting the number of people, they crammed all ten spies and a chubby driver into the car.

This time, we also have an empty car driven by a chubby young driver, so we can fit a few more people in.

However, it's impossible to put them all in one vehicle.

Thirteen vehicles, several of which were used to cramm people into the vehicles.

There are people watching all the time.

They can't escape.

Yang Dalin and his mentor continued to serve as sentry guards.

Drive back, and when you're about a kilometer ahead, call out to the three scouts in this direction, and tell them to get in the car behind you in a bit.

They drove into the plains overnight.

Captain Jing gave a special instruction this time.

If you encounter villages or towns, try to avoid entering them.

If there's no way to get around it, try not to honk your horn and disturb the residents.

Don't attract their attention.

After leaving the mountains, drive south for several dozen kilometers and find a suitable place to camp and rest before noon.

Try to find a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

It is indeed not easy to find a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack in the plains.

If you can't find one, find a place with open space around you.

That way, even if someone attacks, it will be easy to be detected.

Yang Dalin drove the same mountain road he had just traveled during the day.

Yang Dalin also has a good view.

The car was driven very steadily.

There were hardly any cars on the mountain roads at night.

There's no need to worry about vehicles passing each other in narrow spaces.

After driving for more than two hours, the convoy finally emerged from the mountains.

Yang Dalin continued driving until almost midnight, when he finally found a flat, open campsite.
