"Yes, student will remember your teachings and will never do anything illegal!" Ning Zhiheng solemnly assured him, but in his heart he was not convinced. If he didn't empty these warehouses this time, wouldn't he have come all this way for nothing? As for international public opinion, if those things were useful, what would be the point of having an army?
Once the matter was settled, Ning Zhiheng took his leave. Zhang Zhengkui gave him several instructions before he left the operations room.
As Ning Zhiheng left the operations room, the officer on duty quickly came to greet him. This officer was a lieutenant colonel, Li Lixin, Zhang Zhengkui's adjutant.
He had been waiting outside the door for a long time. He thought that Zhang Zhengkui would come out soon after meeting Ning Zhiheng, but he did not expect it to take so long. It seems that the commander attaches great importance to this special agent brigade!
“Captain Ning, you arrived late at night and haven’t had time to settle into your barracks yet. I’ll take you there to make arrangements,” Li Lixin said.
Ning Zhiheng smiled gently and replied politely, "No need to trouble yourself. The commander has already agreed to let me choose my own place of residence. I will choose a few warehouses nearby to settle down and will go to make the arrangements right away."
Ning Zhiheng's words completely surprised Li Lixin. He had a keen sense that Ning Zhiheng's words seemed to show little respect for the commander.
Li Lixin was Zhang Zhengkui's adjutant, so he naturally paid close attention to what was happening around Zhang Zhengkui. He casually asked, "The commander seems to have a special regard for your unit. Other units are required to be stationed in military camps."
Ning Zhiheng was astute. As the saying goes, "It's easier to see the King of Hell than to deal with his underlings." This man was Zhang Zhengkui's personal adjutant, and must be a trusted confidant. He needed to cultivate a good relationship with him so that they could get along well in the future.
"I don't know who you are?"
"I am Li Lixin, the commander's adjutant."
"I am truly sorry, Ning Zhiheng. I am also a junior of the Commander and belong to the Baoding faction. We are all family."
Li Lixin then realized that he was the commander's confidant and Ning Zhiheng was the commander's junior. The two were really family. They smiled at each other and their relationship naturally became closer.
The two deliberately befriended each other and had a pleasant conversation. Afterwards, Ning Zhiheng took his leave and immediately led his men out of the military camp.
At this moment, the two guides, Zhao Chunsheng and Hong Nan, who had been waiting outside, quickly came forward to greet them.
They pointed to a man not far away and said, "Captain, this is Old Hu, our Green Gang's foreman at the docks. You can ask him directly if you need anything."
After saying that, he waved to Lao Hu, who quickly ran over and nodded repeatedly to Ning Zhiheng, saying, "Captain, all the dockworkers in this area are under my jurisdiction. If you need to know anything, please feel free to ask me."
This was a short, stocky middle-aged man, bald and dressed in short clothes, looking very neat, like a gang member.
Ning Zhiheng nodded and asked, "Old Hu, I'd like to know, which of these large warehouses nearby stores medicines?"
Before Lao Hu arrived, he had already communicated with Zhao Chunsheng. They were both You Laoliu's men, and naturally they had to participate in this operation. He lowered his voice and said, "There are quite a few. Medicine is the most profitable commodity. There are large quantities of medicine in the warehouses of Ximan Company and Leike Company not far ahead. There are also some in other warehouses, but in smaller quantities."
Ning Zhiheng was overjoyed upon hearing this. He could tell that there was a large quantity of medicine stored in the coastal warehouse, enough to treat the wounded in Nanshi Hospital.
He whispered, "Lead the way for us, take over these warehouses, and we'll set up camp here today."
Hearing Ning Zhiheng's words, Lao Hu was shocked. He hadn't expected the captain to be in such a hurry; was he going to act recklessly?
He quickly advised, "Captain, those warehouses are guarded by some troops. If we go and occupy them directly, it might cause conflict and trouble, and then it will be difficult to take action later."
Ning Zhiheng laughed heartily, patted Lao Hu on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "I can pick any warehouse around here, I guarantee no one will cause trouble. Lead the way!"
