Chapter 467 Base No. 9
467
But there was excitement in the eyes of the three Tang Bei brothers - were they one step closer to their sister?
When Tang Bei, Tang Nan, and Tang Dong heard that their sister had arrived on the battlefield, they were all excited, nervous, and vaguely worried. Their sister was so delicate, and even though they all knew she was powerful, deep down, they still didn't want her to come to the battlefield.
But, just like them. They knew that their father had died and they were worried, so how could their sister be indifferent? In fact, they all suspected that as long as the sister knew that their father had died on the battlefield, she would definitely come to the battlefield.
As expected, their younger sister arrived. However, after verifying that the rumors of their father's death were false, she vanished completely. They were apprehensive after receiving her ambiguous message. What did she mean? Was it what they thought? They were convinced they were right.
They eagerly waited for their sister to come find them, desperate to hear her confirm the truth, their suspicions being entirely correct. But they waited and waited, battle after battle, and still no sign of her. Furthermore, almost no team had any news of her.
How could the three of them not be anxious? Their sister's ability was one thing, but that didn't stop them from worrying about her. But they couldn't get any news about her.
Recently they heard about a goddess appearing in Shanhe County. Based on the gossips of the soldiers and the descriptions of the people of Bianyue State, Tang Bei and his friends thought that the goddess they were talking about should be their sister.
They couldn't quite put their finger on what they were feeling, but they were filled with admiration and praise for their sister. Their sister, as long as she set her mind to it, there was nothing she couldn't do. It was said that the entire Shanhe County listened to her now.
Not only that, her sister had also recruited people from many surrounding counties, and their group was growing larger and larger. They had also heard some bad news. Unwilling to wait any longer, they decided to go find Tang Yue in person.
Only when their sister is by their side and they take care of her personally can they feel at peace.
Hearing about the frequent fighting in Shanhe County, they were uneasy. So, even if it was difficult and dangerous, they had to overcome it. After that, they sneaked all the way here.
"Brother, there's movement up ahead." Tang Dong suddenly lowered his voice, his bony fingers gently tugging at the hem of Tang Bei's shirt. They had food in their space, but since they'd agreed not to use spiritual power unless it was a crisis, they remained consistent with their comrades on the battlefield.
After a period of time, the few pounds of meat that Tang Dong had not gained were quickly consumed.
The three held their breath and looked in the faint moonlight. They saw the beam of a searchlight sweeping across the distance like a ghost. The barbed wire shone coldly under the light. American soldiers armed with live ammunition patrolled back and forth, and the roar of a generator could be heard faintly in the air.
Tang Bei narrowed his eyes and whispered, "It's a US military base. It looks quite large. It's codenamed 9."
The three brothers stared at the tall walls and strict sentries outside the base. Tang Nan bit his cracked lips and whispered, "The defense is quite strict. Brother, Dongzi, since we have encountered it, wouldn't it be a bit inappropriate not to go in and take a look?"
Hey, I haven't eaten meat in a long time. I heard that the American army's food is always good. I really want to go in and try it. But, with our physical strength, a strong attack is definitely not possible. "
Tang Bei pondered for a moment, his eyes fixed on an old, leaning tree at the corner of the wall. Its branches almost touched the wall. "Let's start from that tree and use the branches to climb in. They won't think anyone would dare to sneak in from such a dangerous place."
Indeed, the branches of the old tree that stretched in were actually quite thin, and the average soldier's stature would definitely not be supported by that branch. But who made them encounter these little ones?
Taking advantage of the night, the three of them crept closer to the old tree like nimble monkeys. Tang Bei was the first to climb up the trunk. The branches creaked under his weight, and he moved cautiously, trying to reduce the weight with each step.
Tang Dong and Tang Nan followed closely behind. The three of them, with their thin bodies, moved around among the branches and finally managed to climb over the wall and landed silently in a bush inside the base.
"Act separately. If you encounter any emergency, don't fight to the death. We will meet up there later." Tang Bei whispered and pointed to a very hidden corner of Base No. 9.
The three brothers immediately groped their way forward in different directions. Tang Bei stuck to the wall, avoiding the patrolling soldiers and using his short stature to get into a corner filled with debris.
He peered through the gap and saw a heavily guarded building not far away. American soldiers paced back and forth at the entrance, vigilantly observing their surroundings. There were also sentries stationed atop the building. Drawing on his battlefield experience, he concluded that this was likely a warehouse for guns and ammunition.
Tang Dong was lurking in the shadow of a warehouse. He found that American soldiers frequently entered and exited different buildings. By observing the soldiers' movement patterns and fragments of conversation, he roughly outlined the layout of the base.
He took out the worn-out paper he carried with him and, using the moonlight, quickly wrote down the important information.
When the three brothers reunited, everyone had an excited look on their face.
Tang Bei held up the ammunition depot information he had recorded, while Tang Dong unfolded the base layout map he had drawn. "We already have key information about the base, but these are just the basics. I don't understand what they're saying, but I've noticed that many people here are likely to be relocating soon."
"They're preparing supplies for the journey. Could they be heading somewhere to support a battle?" Tang Bei said solemnly.
Tang Dong couldn't help but feel worried after hearing his elder brother's words. He felt the same way. If this really was a battle, their weapons were clearly very sophisticated, and joining any battle would only add a significant amount of pressure.
Tang Nan was very optimistic, but as if he suddenly thought of something, his expression suddenly turned grim.
Tang Dong noticed something was wrong with his second brother, "Second brother, what are you thinking about?"
Tang Nan scratched his head a little embarrassedly. He looked around and lowered his voice, "What do you think? Is it possible that these people are not going to join that team? Could they be going to attack the goddess?"
Tang Bei and Tang Dong immediately felt uneasy after hearing Tang Nan's speculation. They felt uncomfortable all over. But what Tang Nan said made perfect sense. This possibility was incredibly high.
Tang Dong's face turned serious. "Big Brother, Second Brother, I will never allow anyone to hurt my sister. Now that we've met, let's see where they're going."
Tang Bei and Tang Nan agreed with Tang Dong's statement. Without using spiritual power, it would be too difficult for them to take down Base No. 9.
Tang Nan chuckled and nudged Tang Dong with his shoulder, "Dongzi, aren't you usually the one who pays the most attention? Now the opportunity is right in front of us. What do you think, should we go for a big one?"
Tang Dong looked at his second brother's innocent face. He really had misjudged him. He usually thought his second brother just liked to eat and drink, but it turned out that he was actually a hidden scheming man. Recently, on the battlefield, his second brother had really been causing trouble.
It had only been quiet for a few days, but his second brother seemed to be getting restless again.
Tang Dong thought for a moment and said, "Let's first figure out where this place is. It will be difficult for the three of us to destroy it. We need to figure out the best place to start."
Tang Nan pointed at the map in Tang Bei's hand and said, "I think that armory is pretty good. Hey, Dongzi, what do you think?"
Tang Dong shook his head helplessly, "Second brother, don't worry. We just got here, let's find out the situation first, maybe there will be a better solution."
Tang Bei agreed with Tang Dong's idea, "Okay, let's continue to explore the bottom of this place. Don't be too hasty."
Just as they were about to proceed, a faint shouting sounded from not far away. The three of them exchanged glances and decided to follow the sound. Little did they know, what awaited them ahead was a scene that filled them with both shock and indignation.
