Chapter 682 Rescue Operation 5
Shanzi had just begun to lecture the skinny young man, but after a while he didn't hear any response from him. He was about to ask something when he suddenly felt something hard hitting the back of his head. He thought it was Erniu and the others who came to relieve him and were joking with him, so he shouted in displeasure, "You guys took so long to come here to relieve me, you must tell Brother Dalong later..."
Unfortunately, before he could finish his words, Shanzi felt a pain in his neck, then his eyes went dark and he fell into fainting.
A member of the operation team whispered to his companions, "From what this guy said just now, we can be sure that the militiamen who are changing shifts will be here soon. Don't take these two guys away yet. Pretend they are asleep."
The companion did not say anything, but just nodded slightly, then picked up the thin and dark young man who was also unconscious, and leaned him and Shanzi against the big willow tree. The old sleeve that they were originally carrying was used to support their bodies to prevent them from falling. From a distance, it looked like the two of them had fallen asleep, leaning against the big willow tree with the old sleeve.
A few minutes later, two staggering young men appeared on the path leading from Machekou Village to here. One of the stronger young men shouted from a distance: "Shanzi, Gousheng, the men are here to take over the shift. You can go back and eat."
The young man walking nearby saw the two people "sleeping" against the big willow tree at a glance, and said with a smile: "Brother Erniu, Shanzi and Gousheng, those two bastards are sleeping. It's a good opportunity for us two brothers to earn two more boxes of cigarettes." As he spoke, he shook the two boxes of Dasheng cigarettes in his hand. These were secretly stuffed into the two people by the militia captain Ma Dalong before he came over. According to Ma Dalong's regulations, before each shift change, the militiamen who came to change shifts would bring two boxes of cigarettes to the people who had just been on guard. Of course, Erniu understood what his companion meant. If Ma Dalong knew that Shanzi and Gousheng, those two bastards, were sleeping while on guard, he would not only confiscate two boxes of cigarettes. A few days ago, the two of them also slept while on guard. When Ma Dalong found out when he was checking the guards, he gave them a severe beating.
Erniu understood what he meant and stopped talking. He just walked over quickly with his companions.
Unfortunately, what greeted the two guys were the black muzzles of guns. Erniu and his companions surrendered obediently. They were taken to a small woods outside the village by the action team members and were immediately subjected to severe interrogation.
Bai Wu and Qin Ming listened to the interrogation of the two guys by the action team members. From the mouths of these two people, they were able to get a preliminary understanding of the situation in Machikou Village.
According to the confessions of the two people, a total of eleven people, nine men and two women, led by Ma Youlu, a former villager of Machikou Village, have been living in the Ma Family Ancestral Hall at the foot of the mountain for more than a month. It is said that they are an exploration team sent by the geological department of Beijing to conduct geological surveys. Ma Youlu left the village as early as 1951. It is said that he found a job in Beijing and has never returned since then.
At first, Ma Youlu found Ma Youfu, the team leader of Machikou Village, and through him he led his people to live in the Ma Family Ancestral Hall. Now Ma Youlu has a very good relationship with all the cadres, big and small, in Machikou Village, especially Ma Dalong, the village militia captain, who often goes to the Ma Family Ancestral Hall to drink with the people from the geological exploration team.
At first, the geological team came to Machikou Village in a large truck, carrying some tools with them. In the days that followed, the geological surveyors often went to the mountains in batches with tools to conduct geological surveys. Later, a donkey cart and an ox cart would occasionally come to deliver supplies to the geological survey team. The militia standing guard at the entrance of the village also conducted inspections at the beginning and found that in the sacks on the trucks, in addition to flour and cornmeal, there were some daily necessities such as oil, salt, sauce and vinegar. Later,
The militia captain Ma Dalong informed everyone that there was no need to check the geological exploration team's vehicles anymore, and that the exploration team was quite generous, giving each militiaman standing guard at the village entrance a box of Dashengchan cigarettes every day. The village captain, accountant, militia captain and others were given Daqianmen cigarettes.
In the past half month or so, the geological exploration team has sent supplies to the village in a donkey cart or ox cart almost every three or two days. However, the supplies were all packed in sacks, and the militiamen on guard had no idea what was inside.
At this time, team members from other groups also escorted the subdued militiamen on guard back to the grove, and immediately interrogated these militiamen separately. The information they obtained was not much different from the confessions of Erniu and the other man. Obviously, these militiamen did not know much about the so-called geological exploration team. However, after identifying the portraits, these militiamen were able to confirm that the nine suspects had delivered supplies to the exploration team many times, and six of them were still in the Ma Family Ancestral Hall today.
After listening to the interrogation and having a brief discussion, Bai Wu and Qin Ming immediately reported to Lin Yu at the Security Department Training Base via walkie-talkie.
After listening to the interrogation report, Director Wan and Lin Yu directly issued the order for action.
As the order was issued, all the action team members and six comrades from the Public Security Department, Security Department, and Criminal Investigation Department of the Municipal Bureau, after hurriedly eating some lunch delivered by truck from the canteen of the Security Department's training base, immediately took action against Machikou Village.
In addition to the peripheral action team members who were responsible for the sniper mission, the other people were divided into two groups. One group was led by Director Bai Wu himself, responsible for arresting the cadres of all ranks in Machikou Village, especially the team leader Ma Youfu, deputy team leader Ma Youcai and militia team leader Ma Dalong; Qin Ming led the rest of the personnel and immediately launched a siege on the Ma Family Ancestral Hall.
It was almost one o'clock in the afternoon. As it was not the busy farming season, most adults in the village took a nap at home in the middle of summer. Bai Wu and six comrades from the Criminal Investigation Department of the Municipal Bureau, each formed a team with two action team members and two security guards. Led by the militiaman who had just been arrested, they walked quickly towards the homes of several key village cadres.
Thanks to the help of these militiamen leading the way, we were able to deal with some half-grown children playing outside.
When Bai Wu and his men rushed into Ma Youfu's yard, Ma Youfu, who was sleeping on the kang, was immediately awakened by the noise outside.
Ma Youfu, who has practiced martial arts for many years, is an experienced hunter. In addition, his mind is full of thoughts about Ma Youlu and the others, so he couldn't sleep at all. Therefore, the sudden hurried footsteps coming from outside immediately made Ma Youfu, who was guilty of a thief, realize that the thing he was most worried about might have happened.
