The Mysterious Soldier of the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 396: Yuelai Tower's Plan: Using RPG-29 to Hit the Japanese Vital Points

Lei Tao and Scarface Li crouched down and quietly approached the back door of Yuelai Building. Lei Tao reached out and gently pushed, finding that the door was not locked. The two of them quickly slipped in and then closed the door with their backhands, their movements done in one go without a trace of delay.

The restaurant was so quiet you could hear a pin drop, only faint noises could be heard from the kitchen. The two of them cautiously moved towards the secret room, their steps extremely light, fearing to disturb those around them. As they reached the stairs, a faint sound of voices drifted in from above. Scarface Li, noticing this, immediately placed his index finger to his lips, silencing them, and then the two of them tiptoed up the stairs.

When they reached the door of the secret room, Scarface Li raised his hand and knocked gently on the door, while lowering his voice and saying, "It's me, Scarface Li."

The door swung slowly and was opened from the inside. Sun Jinhua poked her head out with a wary look on her face. Seeing that it was the two of them, the tense expression on her face instantly relaxed. She breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I've finally been waiting for you to come back. Come in."

As the two entered the secret room, Meng Xiaoyu had already hurriedly met them, pouring each a bowl of water and handing them some dry food. Lei Tao and Scarface Li, thirsty and hungry after their intense run, took the water and dry food and devoured them ravenously, looking as if they hadn't eaten in a long time.

Sun Jinhua looked at Lei Tao with gratitude and said sincerely, "This big brother must be Brother Lei. Thank you for risking your life to save us. If you hadn't led the Japanese away, how could we have escaped so smoothly?"

Lei Tao waved his hand, swallowed the dry food in his mouth, and said, "Miss Sun, you are too polite. We are all here to fight against the Japanese. Anyone in my position would do the same."

Scarface Li raised his head and drank the water in the bowl. He wiped his mouth with his hand, his expression solemn. He said in a low voice, "But the Japanese have suffered such a great loss this time, they will definitely not give up easily. In my opinion, this Yuelai Tower may no longer be a safe place to hide."

Instantly, the atmosphere in the chamber became oppressive and heavy, and everyone fell into deep thought. Meng Xiaoyu frowned slightly and asked softly, "So, what should we do next?"

Lei Tao burped and spoke slowly, "I went alone to distract the pursuers to ensure that we wouldn't be exposed. Let's proceed as planned: when the large group of Japanese troops leave the city to fight, we'll give them a head-on blow in the county seat and show them the power of my 'Netherworld Assassin.'"

Meng Xiaoyu's eyes suddenly lit up, but then he asked worriedly, "Brother Lei, that does sound satisfying! But the Japanese are definitely more defensive now. How should we proceed?"

Scarface Li stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, and then slowly said, "I know some people from all walks of life in the city. Perhaps I can get the latest information on the Japanese troop deployment and patrols from them, so that we can prepare for our operation in advance."

Sun Jinhua nodded slightly, and then said: "I have a few sisters over there, they all have some martial arts skills and can help. They are responsible for creating some chaos in the city and distracting the devils' attention."

Lei Tao thought for a moment and said confidently, "Creating chaos is certainly important, but we must have a core goal. The Japanese have set up a material storage depot in the city. From what I've observed, the defense there is relatively weak. If we can successfully blow it up, we can not only greatly weaken the Japanese's strength, but also disrupt their deployment."

Meng Xiaoyu frowned upon hearing this and said worriedly, "But blowing up the supply depot is no easy task. It's definitely heavily guarded. How on earth are we supposed to get close to it?"

Lei Tao raised the corner of his mouth slightly, smiled mysteriously, and said: "The mountain man has his own clever plan. As long as we can accurately find the location of the Japanese material storage warehouse, it will be fine."

In the secret room, the dim light flickered, stretching the figures of the people out of their time. Everyone sat together, the atmosphere solemn yet filled with a hint of anticipation. Meng Xiaoyu's eyes locked with Lei Tao, and she said eagerly, "Brother Lei, stop keeping us in suspense and tell us what's your plan?"

Lei Tao smiled and said, "I'll show you a little trick." Then, with a mysterious air, he found a large piece of burlap and gently covered the table with it. Then, he waved his hand gracefully in the air, grabbed something, and quickly placed it on the burlap-covered table. After completing this series of movements, he suddenly ripped off the burlap and shouted, "The Jade Emperor gave me a magical weapon. Come and see what this is!"

Meng Xiaoyu was so frightened that she trembled all over and almost jumped up. She patted her chest and scolded, "Brother Lei, you really scared me. You said the Jade Emperor, but I thought it was a real monster."

Scarface Li took a closer look and said with disgust, "Brother, this is not a magic weapon at all, it's just a large bullet. You might as well say it was lent to you by Sun Wukong."

Lei Tao laughed heartily and explained, "Brother Li, don't underestimate this 'big bullet'. It is a powerful weapon that can help us blow up the Japanese's material storage depot." When everyone heard this, they gathered around curiously, their eyes full of anticipation.

Lei Tao continued seriously, "This weapon is called the RPG-29 rocket. It's extremely powerful. As long as we can find the right time and choose the perfect position, we will be able to deal a fatal blow to the enemy's material storage depot. However, before we act, we must make a series of thorough preparations."

Scarface Li nodded heavily and said, "Brother, just tell us what you want us to do."

Lei Tao pondered for a moment and said methodically, "First, we must accurately determine the specific location of the Japanese material storage depot and the surrounding terrain. Brother Li, you and your friends must inquire about the information from various sources as soon as possible. Make sure to get as detailed as possible."

Scarface Li patted his chest and said confidently: "Don't worry, brother, leave this matter to me. I will arrange it right away, and I promise to bring you useful information by this time tomorrow." After that, he hurriedly left the secret room.

Sun Jinhua looked at Lei Tao and asked sincerely, "Brother Lei, what can my sisters and I do?"

Lei Tao said seriously: "Miss Sun, you and the sisters need to create some small-scale chaos in the city to attract the attention of the devils, but you must be extra careful and never expose yourselves. This will effectively disperse the devil's forces and create favorable conditions for our actions."

Sun Jinhua nodded firmly and responded, "Okay, Brother Lei, we will be extremely careful."

Meng Xiaoyu said worriedly, "Brother Lei, even if we find the location of the Japanese supply depot, how are we going to get these rockets there? There will definitely be many Japanese patrols along the way. What if we're discovered?"

Lei Tao smiled faintly and said comfortingly, "Yu'er, you don't have to worry about that. I have my own clever ways to avoid the Japanese patrols and ensure that the rockets are safely delivered to their destination. You just need to focus on doing your own responsibilities."

After hearing Lei Tao's words, everyone's worries were slightly relieved. In the next few days, everyone was busy, making all-round preparations for the operation to blow up the Japanese material storage depot.

Finally, Scarface Li successfully brought back detailed intelligence on the Japanese military's supply depot, including key information such as its specific location, surrounding terrain, patrol patterns, and guard strength. After carefully studying this intelligence, Lei Tao began to carefully formulate a detailed action plan, taking every detail into consideration to ensure that nothing could go wrong.
