I followed Du Xu to the location of the stronghold.
The outpost was located at a restaurant at a crossroads.
As soon as we appeared at the door, the people inside opened it.
We entered smoothly, and upon closer inspection, we found three people inside, all carrying guns, who were not easy to deal with.
Neither Du Xu nor I took any forceful action.
One of the three men inside, a middle-aged man with short hair, asked, "Why did you come here? Didn't our people go to your side today?"
Du Xu smiled apologetically and said, "Yes, yes, they just left."
"Then what are you doing here? Is there anything else?" the other person asked.
Du Xu said, "The main reason is that we ran out of ammunition for our sidearms today, so I wanted to get some. I forgot to tell Sun Shichao before, so I had to trouble you. Of course, I won't let you give it to me for nothing. This is a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes that I found when I went to find supplies yesterday, and I brought it with you."
Du Xu took out a pack of bright red cigarettes from his backpack.
The three men's eyes widened when they saw the pack of Zhonghua cigarettes.
One of them took the Zhonghua cigarette and laughed, "You're quite generous. Sure, here, have a light, but you know the rules, there are only two magazines."
Du Xu laughed and said, "I understand, I understand."
Without saying anything, the other party simply handed over a box of bullets. Upon opening it, I found that it contained the capacity of two magazines.
"Thank you, thank you very much," Du Xu said, then asked, "Oh, by the way, Sun Shichao told me before he left that Zhou Liang was dead. Is that true?"
The other person was taken aback. "Sun Shichao told you about this?"
"Yes, what's wrong?"
The other person shook their head and said, "It's nothing. Since Sun Shichao told you, it means he trusts you. Just keep this to yourself, don't spread it around, okay? Right now, no one else knows that Zhou Liang is dead."
"Oh, I see. I understand. I definitely won't tell."
