Chapter 224 Bullets Cannot Be Used

224

Tang Yue was still a little angry. What a jerk Chang Yin was! How could he trick her with something like drooling? Humph! Did he think she was so young and easy to bully?

"No, it's too unsafe in the deep mountains."

Chang Yin......

Little girl, can you be a little more disingenuous with your words? Forget the Qinling Mountains, even a primeval forest, would you dare to venture into it?

Seeing that Tang Yue was still angry, Chang Yin felt a little embarrassed. This was the first time he had seriously teased this little girl, so why did she get angry?

"Come with me."

Tang Yue was a little reluctant, but she knew that Chang Yin would not do it without a purpose, so she stood up and followed Chang Yin out of their resting place.

Chang Yin stood under a tree, looking up at the night sky that was about to turn dark. Tang Yue looked up and didn't feel anything strange. "Captain, what do you want to say?"

Chang Yin squatted down and touched a small grass that was growing normally. He transferred his spiritual power to the grass, and the grass suddenly grew a little taller. After that, this grass had a very obvious difference from other ordinary grasses.

Tang Yue's eyes widened in surprise. "Captain, have you broken through to the first level of Qi training?"

Chang Yin shook his head. Not yet, but if he could stay in the mountains for a few more days, it should be almost there.

Tang Yue......

The battalion commander's spiritual root aptitude is really good, but he is so powerful when he hasn't even reached the first level of Qi training?

Chang Yin remained squatting, his gaze level with Tang Yue. "But I have a feeling I have a connection with the trees, flowers, and plants in this mountain. A very intimate connection."

Tang Yue took a deep breath. She had never worked with someone with such good qualifications. Now, in her opinion, the battalion commander had the best qualifications.

"Well, the battalion commander is very good, keep up the good work."

After saying that, she turned around and wanted to go back. Ahhh, why is she still feeling a little unbalanced? No, she needs to keep working hard, or she will be surpassed by the battalion commander in a few days. Where will she put her face?

"Are you planning to recruit these three into the team?"

Tang Yue turned around and asked, "Captain, are you the worm in my stomach?"

Chang Yin said seriously, "Tang Yue, if these three want to join the army, we need to investigate their identities first. You can't be impatient."

Tang Yue pouted, "Captain, I know the process. They should have been forced to approach Qinling Mountains. I don't think they are bad guys."

Chang Yin didn't say anything, and Tang Yue didn't stay here any longer and went straight back to the camp.

The atmosphere in the camp was somewhat dull. Tang Yue looked around and saw that everyone's faces were somewhat embarrassed. Her father's face was a little distorted. Tang Yue hurried to Tang Shengkai's side, "Dad, what's wrong?"

Tang Shengkai's face flushed red when he saw his daughter approaching. His face, already tanned and red, looked strange against the current weather.

"Um?"

Tang Yue was a little confused, so she turned her gaze towards Chen Erniu. Chen Erniu looked away awkwardly.

Tang Yue......

That's not right. Chen Erniu is not such a shy person. What happened? "Dad, what's wrong?"

Tang Shengkai endured it again and again, thinking that he had already been embarrassed, and it was his daughter who was embarrassed. He was about to speak when Xu Hongchang spoke up and began to explain.

"It's nothing serious. We were just planning to leave the Qinling Mountains soon. There might be enemy spies surrounding us outside, so we planned to count the number of bullets."

Tang Yue nodded. She didn't think there was anything wrong with this. She turned around and looked at Chang Yin, who was also nodding in agreement.

Xu Hongchang's expression remained unchanged. "Most of the bullets we have here have problems."

"Swish, swish" Tang Yue and Chang Yin looked at Xu Hongchang at the same time, their thoughts racing in their minds.

Xu Hongchang waved his hand. "It's not what you think. The bullets we brought with us on the mission were used up a long time ago. The bullets we have now are from the Japanese."

"Is there something wrong with the Japanese bullets?" Tang Yue asked, feeling something was wrong. That shouldn't be the case. If there was something wrong with their bullets, then her father and the others wouldn't have been so embarrassed by the Japanese.

"Hehe, let me tell you, Battalion Commander." Chen Erniu finally couldn't help it.

"We've run out of bullets. Before you came, we were locked in a standoff with the Japanese on both sides of the abyss. Old Tang felt their bullets had all hit our fortress made of trees. He thought we could still use these bullets.

We were quite anxious at the time, thinking that although the bullet that had been shot could not be loaded into the gun, it might still come in handy at some critical moment.

However, we didn't expect that Old Tang didn't know about this. He thought these bullets could still be loaded into the gun and used again. That's why we had a little joke just now."

Tang Yue......

Chang Yin......

It turned out that her father was embarrassed. But if she hadn't read so many books, she wouldn't have known this.

"Dad, you're right. Bullet casings actually have many uses. For example, during military training, if conditions permit, some of the bullet casings recovered from the battlefield will be collected and processed for use in shooting range practice during military training.

Moreover, after reloading gunpowder and bullets, it can be used as training ammunition for soldiers to conduct shooting training, which can save costs and reduce waste of resources.

In addition, cartridge cases are usually made of metals such as copper and steel, and contain valuable metal elements such as lead and copper.

We recycle them. Recycled cartridge cases can be sent to specialized recycling facilities for processing and extraction of the metals. These metals are then refined and used to manufacture new ammunition or other metal products, thus achieving a resource recycling process.

So, Dad, you are awesome.

Also, actually, Dad, you haven't tried it yet. Using spiritual power to eject the shell directly should have the same effect as shooting with a pistol."

Tang Shengkai felt much better after hearing what his daughter said. He pulled her into his arms and said, "Yes, my daughter is the best."

The embarrassing mistake was finally over.

Chang Yin looked at Tang Yue and said, "Captain Tang, most of the bullets are with you. Give some to everyone at night. We might be ambushed if we go out."

"Yeah, okay."

While grilling, Sun Jinan asked Tang Yue, "Captain, we've taken a long detour this time. Why don't we just use the same method we used last time? I guarantee those people will have waited in vain."

Wang Ming agreed, "Yes, Captain, that way we can speed up."

Tang Yue thought it made sense. She had no objection.

Xu Hongchang looked at them and said, "What are you talking about? Speak clearly."

Sun Jinan chuckled and saw that Tang Yue and Chang Yin did not stop them. Those children were quite far away from here, so he whispered what happened when they came here.

Everyone felt it was magical and exciting and wanted to try it.

They felt that spiritual power was already something very mysterious, and they had no idea that it had so many uses. The next day, after waking up, they stared at Tang Yue eagerly, waiting for her to give them that invisibility talisman.

Tang Yue felt uncomfortable being stared at, and finally had no choice but to hand out a yellow talisman to each of them. Afterwards, everyone put the yellow talisman in their pockets with great care.

Xiao Mohe and his two siblings looked at the yellow talisman in their hands, not knowing what it was for. Seeing that everyone was treating it with great care, they quickly put it away. However, he frowned slightly.

Aren't we supposed to destroy the Four Olds? How could these soldiers dare to do this? I really don't understand.

Sun Jinan and Wang Ming had practiced diligently last night, and today they felt a significant change. They both felt their perception of their surroundings had become more acute.

There was another mountain just outside the Qinling Mountains.

Wang Ming and Sun Jinan's expressions grew serious. Tang Yue had already spotted the eleven men lying in ambush three miles away. Seeing their fierce eyes, she knew they were waiting to ambush them.

After walking another mile forward, Sun Jinan felt the change in the air around him. He immediately made a gesture and everyone hid immediately.

Sun Jinan had already experienced walking past people without being noticed, but they still remembered clearly the incident of Li Tieniu taking someone else's buns. Now they were not without anything. Captain Xu and his men were carrying national treasures, so he couldn't take any risks.

Tang Yue lazily sat on the tiger's back. They were now all in her invisibility formation, so the enemy agents would definitely not be able to see them. However, if they blatantly walked past them, they would definitely feel it.

After all, this is a mountain forest, and every blade of grass and tree is still when there is no wind.

Tang Yue rode the tiger back a little. She got off the tiger's back and looked at the tiger and the leopard. "We are leaving the mountain."
