Jiang Qiao stopped pressing for answers, and Liu Zhanyu finally breathed a sigh of relief. This girl had so many ideas. He was really worried that she wouldn't cooperate and might even get angry and kill someone, which would make all their efforts over the past few days go to waste.
Going out to check shows that the girl has accepted their arrangements.
Jiang Qiao once tried it out, and found that there was one place in the entire valley that absorbed the most energy, and that was the central location where the venomous snakes were concentrated.
There are others, they exist, but they are relatively weaker, and their strongest point is probably below their current encampment.
She suspected that the old Japanese soldier and his group were probably also heading to this place.
As for the others, there are still no solutions for now; she can only make a judgment once she sees them.
After going around in circles, they had a general idea in mind, and the two sat down together to discuss how to arrange their troops.
Jiang Qiao started rummaging through the basket. The top layer contained the prey, and the bottom layer contained the medicine she had prepared. As for a change of clothes, she had simply carried them over in her bundle.
"We need to see if the other party is masked. If not, we can just throw it over and make sure our soldiers wear masks. If they are masked, it won't be very effective."
I suppose they wouldn't be wearing masks so late at night. Just in case, catching them alive would be better.
Liu Zhanyu took a map of the valley and explained his idea to Jiang Qiao: "We can deploy manpower here and there, making it easier to encircle them from both sides. What do you think?"
Jiang Qiao nodded, having no objection. It was similar to her idea. Jiang Qiao had already mentioned everything that needed to be thought of. Two heads are better than one, and the two complemented each other. In the end, Jiang Qiao was satisfied with the result.
"Then let's wait for them to come."
As evening approached, reinforcements arrived one after another, dressed in plainclothes. After all, with so many people coming in, what if the people hiding in the shadows found out and the enemy changed their plans?
Everything was arranged, and Jiang Qiao could only wait. When she had nothing to do, she would read a book or stay in her room.
In any case, the impression given to outsiders is that nothing has changed here, and those people are still doing what they were supposed to do according to the previous arrangements.
On the third night, Song Shutian sent a telegram, first praising them, because they had intercepted the enemy's telegram and there really was someone secretly monitoring the situation here.
"The enemy hasn't found anything and says everything is normal. I estimate they'll be moving into the mountains soon."
Jiang Qiao finally couldn't help but ask, "What about that third uncle? What if she doesn't come?"
Song Shutian smiled and continued to reply to Jiang Qiao, "Impossible, she will definitely come, but she is not with him for the time being, so please be careful on your end."
Jiang Qiao was actually quite curious about what Song Shutian was doing at this time. The enemy was about to arrive, so why wasn't this guy in a hurry?
Actually, Jiang Qiao really wronged Song Shutian. He didn't rest during the New Year. Third Uncle, although they had identified a few targets, they still had to investigate them one by one, right?
When they were stealing, the two women were masked, only their eyes were showing, which made the investigation difficult.
Fortunately, their efforts paid off, and they finally managed to find the two women. However, when they tried to arrest them, they escaped.
Originally, that third uncle had appeared once at the old devil's place, and their people had followed him, but unfortunately, they were shaken off by the other side halfway there.
If you were to ask Song Shutian what his third uncle was doing at this time, he honestly wouldn't know. However, his intuition told him that this woman would eventually appear on the other side of the valley, which was why he reminded Jiang Qiao.
Thinking about that woman, Jiang Qiao suddenly had a bad feeling. Based on her experience in her previous life, this old woman was probably more difficult to deal with than those people in the public eye.
Where are those people now?
Song Shutian replied quickly: "In the city, you should split up and go to the county town today. As for when you will enter the mountains, I don't know. Be prepared at any time."
In fact, Song Shutian himself was in the county town, but he had to stay and direct operations, so he couldn't join Jiang Qiao for the time being.
Jiang Qiao packed her things and went out to call Liu Zhanyu over.
"What's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry? Is the enemy coming?"
Jiang Qiao shook her head, then pointed to the back of the barracks. "Do you think that old woman might attack from behind? That would make things easier for them."
After listening, Liu Zhanyu clicked his tongue in amazement. "Impossible. This is quite convoluted. The key is that woman. How could she possibly have found this place? Even if she did, it would take time. Maybe by then, the old devils will have already arrived."
Jiang Qiao shook her head. "Teacher Liu, we both know what kind of background that woman has. Whether she has been here before or not is not a problem for them. They can just grab someone to lead the way or pay a little money to find out the truth. Do you think it's difficult for them?"
Don't forget, those are specially trained people, and their wilderness survival skills are stronger than we imagine.
"I'm better off safe than sorry. How about this: I'll take care of the back, and you can arrange the front however you like."
Liu Zhanyu looked worried. "Jiang Qiao, that woman is definitely not simple. Are you sure you can handle her? Besides, this is just our guess. It may not really be like that."
Jiang Qiao smiled and shook her head. "So, we need to be prepared. It would be better if they didn't come from this side. But if they do, we're prepared for that too."
So what if she's good at kung fu? I'll just stay out of the way. Her goal is to attack forward, so she has to expose herself first. As for me, I'm just defending and counterattacking.
As long as I don't expose myself, she can forget about coming over. I'll take some things with me, and I'll be living outside for the next couple of days.
Liu Zhanyu was worried. "Jiang Qiao, it's so cold. You might freeze to death. And that won't happen overnight. We don't know when the other side will arrive. Why don't we send someone else? It's not good for a girl like you to stay in the snow for too long."
Besides, you have absolutely no experience dealing with people like that. Why don't I go, and you stay here and give orders?"
Jiang Qiao smiled and shook his head. "Teacher Liu, let's not argue about this. Do you really think your side is so easy to deal with? We don't even know how many people the other side has, or what their firepower is like. It's more appropriate for you to stay here."
However, I can tell you the truth: I really can't guarantee we'll be able to keep her alive. When things get heated, nobody cares about life or death. If she lives, I won't be safe.
Liu Zhanyu patted Jiang Qiao on the shoulder and said, "You silly girl, I really can't say anything else. You decide what to do. Do whatever you want, but don't risk your life."
